MARKET COMMENT OF THE DAY
Grain Latter

I Chicago, Sept. 2.-Wheat: The mar
sket opened about 15c higher with local
buying on the strength of cables, but
offerings increased at the advance, and
prices eased again. Northwestern
markets were very strong with mills
the best buyers. Winnipeg wires no
export demand. The undertone to the
market was firm. but trade was light
and mostly OF a local character we
do not look for any marked change in

TREASURE IS FOUND
By Police Tn Cottage Home of s
 Peasant.

Vienna January 2s-(Special.)- )- Treasure said to be worth a. hundred thousand pounds is reported to have been found in a cottage at Jassy, in Roumania.
 The police had occasion to pay a visit to the dwelling of peasant wom- an named Safta Gradinarin, while searching for proofs of a reasonable conspiracy. They found several we'll made metal trunks, but instead of the papers they expected, these contained an immense quantity of jewels and gold and silver ornaments.
 The woman, who was arrested, de- clared that they were brought to the house by Ter daughter, since dead, who was servant in tn eemploy of the late Prince Nicolai Ghika, at the end of the seventies
 The Prince died after an operation in Paris, and in the confusion that reigned in his palace the trunks were smuggled away. The woman and her daughter had been afraid to sell the more impor- tant of the valuables for fear of detec- tion, so these had remained untouched in the cottage for 30 years.
 As far as the police can tell this re- markable story appears to be true.

the naval officers can tell them that they are merely surveying for science, adding at the end of each reply a significant question as to what China intends to do as to the boycott. The government will fear that the United States is about to retaliate and an edict will be sent forth that the boycott must be stopped
 And what did Mir. Rockhill say to that?" asked.
 "Oh." replied the Tokio statesman. The had not enough backbone to try it. He said he had no doubt but that the plan would work, but that he did not dare to suggest it. When I asked why not, he significantly said: I don't dare to do it.. I don't dare. Our Teddy would jump at 1t in minute.
 And" concluded this man, "I have no doubt but that President Roosevelt would have jumped at it; and had he done so there would have been no further trouble as to American goods and none as to other foreign goods in the future As 1t is now the psychological moment has passed; and not you, only, but also we and al others must get on our knees to these boycotting celestials."

 Paradoxical as it appears, nevertheless, 1t is true that the New Yorker need only turn to the south or the southwest if he wishes to learn what cold weather really is. It seems almost incredible that Nashville. Tenn, or Atlanta. Ga. should have experienced colder weather than New York; yet such is tho case Atlanta boasts of 2 degrees below SOTO, and Nash vile of 13 below. There is no difficulty in citing examples of cities lying far south of New York whose inhabitants have known colder days that tho metrop- oils has experienced.

Boycottinq the British.

 Boycotting the British.
 And this brings me to the new boycott which was recently instituted against the British steamers on the Yangtse-K Kiang. am told that some of the companies are losing 5000 a day, and that the Chinese are refusing to ship by them because a certain deck passenger died from kick given by one of the steamship ticket col- lectors. The British are much alarmed about the matter, and are doing all they can to appease the Chinese.
 The first great boycott against foreign CTS was that imposed upon the Americans, two or three years ago. The merchants or the largest cities then bound themselves not to buy American goods, and imposed a penalty of s40,O0O upon any member Of their organization who did so. After this boycott was raised the trouble with the Japanese, caused by the importation of arms on the Tatsu Maru. was insti- tuted, and it was continued until 1t cost Japan many millions of dollars. About six months ago a Chinese official told me that the damages to Japanese trade had already aggregated more than $40,000.- GOO, and that the guilds of Canton had sworn to make them $15000O,00O before they got through. That boycott was most powerful at Canton. The people there would use nothing Japanese. The women had anti-Japanese clubs and the mer- chants refused to ship. in Japanese steam CTS The loss of trade created financial distress all over Japan, and the govern ment officials at Tokio were at loss to know how to handle the situation. Said one of them to me:
 "We cannot fight the Chinese because they will not trade with us. The powers would not stand for a war of that kind, and we are practically helpless. This is so because the United States knuciled down and permitted the first boycott. Had she acted otherwise she might have stopped Chinese boycotting forever"
 But how could she do thatr'
 Easy enough then, although not at all now with the precedent established. was in Pekin at the time the boycott was started, and told your minister, MT. Rockhill how he could stop 1t. Said I:
 What your government should do is to make firm stand against the boycott. and at the same time send gunboat or so along the coast under pretense of sur veying the waters. The ships should stop at the islands. and now and then make an expedition o6 through the country The Chinese will bscoms alarmed but

New Milling Machinery.

The Chinese are rapidly introducing the better class of machines. and their mills are already about as well equipped as our own. A great part of their ma- chinery is imported from England, and only certain specialties como from the United States. In one factory found an American light plant with 6000 electric lamps burning, and in another thers were modern fire machines, and the employers had . fire drill every week. In nearly every place the wages were as low or lower than those have quoted, the high est price paid the men being something like Q cents per day, while a good aver age wage was or 10 cents. found girls at work In all of the factories, and I know of none which does not employ children.
 At present . considerable portion of the cotton used in China b imported from abroad. We have tho bulk of the Manchurian trade, although Japan is do- ing it's best to compete. The English sell the greater part of the goods brought in to the Yangtse vallsy and south China, and the Germans are pushing their cloths everywhere. Within the past year or so, however the Chinese officials have been starting small factories in which hand looms arc used. I saw some in Tensin and other parts of Chihli. and am told that there are moro than l6,000 such looms now at work in that province.

china's Cotton Supply.

China is doing all 1t can to improve its native cotton. The officials are sending out men to study our cotton belt and our methods of cotton raising, ana edicts have been issued to encourage the growth of the crop in all the provinces. It is claimed that cotton win do well In most parts of China. Much of the country lies in the latitude of our southern states, and from Shanghai northward there are rioh plains which the experts say are Attsd for cotton growing. .With unscaen- tino mseAeds of oulttvadou the coun- try is now pfoduoins something Nike 70 per cens of the raw material it uses, and if properly farmed tho crop could be enormously increased.
 The nae1ve cotton is of snort st4p1e. It is brought here in boats upon the Yangtzs Kiang and tts tributariss, and also in seagoing 1unks from Ninspo and the lands farther south. It is put up in bagu of enormous size. but 70 loosely packed that one twice as large as . feather bed weighs only 200 pounds.
