If we could read the secret history
of our enemies, we should find In each

to disarm all hostility.
Scrofula to
Consumption.
The wheat market was In much the
same condition this morning as during
the past several weeks, except that the
arrival of fresh batches of figurvtj con
cernlng supply and demand and the
prices obtaining elsewhere brought
fresh encouragement to the heart of the
bull Receipts are showing a gradual
falling oft In many quarters, and re
ports from different sections of the
country show that the farmers are dis
posed to sell pretty much everything
they possess, except wheat, which they
have wisely decided to hold until the
manipulator has been driven to the wall
and values are permitted to respond to
the dictates of merit.
The San Francisco Bulletin has all
along persisted In the contention that
a gigantic conspiracy had been organis
ed against the American former by a
clique of Chicago speculators, and that
our wheat has never had a fair chance.
In England, for Instance, In the face of
Increased receipts, the English farmer
has been getting an advanced price for
his wheat. On September 9 the wheat
receipts were CS.SOO quarters; 16th. 80,
S00; 23rd. S5.100; 3iHh. 79,700; Oct. 7th,
71.100; ltth. 63,000; list, W.200; 2Sth.
83,200. The respective prices were 25s
Sd. 25s 4d. 25s 4d. 25s 6d. 26. 27s 3d. 2Ss
2d. 2Ss Id. So that it will be seen that
the price in the United Kingdom has
gone up between September 9 and Oc
tober 28 from 15s 5d to 2Ss Id. while in
America, between these same dates, the
price has steadily declined. There is
no bear so hardened as not to be able
to see the force of the argument set
forth here, and so stuborn as not to
admit that unscrupulous manipulation
has kept the price down.
The last Issue of the London Statist
to hand contains the following regard
ing the wheat situation.
The actual outbreak of hostilities in
the Transvaal has had less effect upon
the wheat market than did the antici
pations cf war. The demand has, in
fact, been extremely limited in charac
ter durins the past week, and prices
show little or no change. There Is,
however, a decided firmness on the part
of holders, who offer very sparingly for
shirment; from Russia, in fact, there
i are practically no offers of wheat."
i The statement regarding Russia from
I so relinbie a source as the Statist, upon
whose opinion so many operators de
! pend, should settle for all time the ar-
gument advanced with so much empha
i sl and frequency by the bear element
regarding the "great Russian crop."
I The prodigious crop in Argentina, too,
has had much effect upon the market,
; although as a matter of fart from a
! broad standpoint there Is no reas-.n why
It should be so. Argentina Is but a fac
tor in the wheat question. Up to Octo
ber 12th she has shipped about 5.000,0OO
bushels to foreign countries
Is estimated that about two
bushels cr less, say 1,700,000
rlod In the Interior of Russia, having
been kept buck bccAUte last svnson'
export prices were below homo price.
The southwest provinces hud an ulsi-
lute failure this yvtir, ami are being
supplied by the good croa of adjacent
territory: that has somewhat Interfer
ed with the Black Sea. shipments.
That part of Russia which finds Its out
tot through the Baltic So has had good
crops, which usually don't show up un
til the opening of spring.
The Mark Lane Kxptvss, In Its for
eign reports, say: "The Antwerp
wheat market has shown no,grviu ac
tivity. French farmers have been prof
iting from the recent Br.e weather, and
have proceeded vigorously with the au
turn sowing. The threshing has been
somewhat Interrupted In consequence.
The country markets have not been
very largely attsndod. Field work will
probably be continued another month
at least, but the farmers are not antic
ipating any Improvement In prices, as
the supplies appear to be assured for
some time to come. Wheat has shown
rather a firmer tone at Odf. A
French authority estimates She world s
wheat crop this year at S04.SS5.000
quarters, as compared with 840.100.000
quarters In im. showing a falling off
or 5o,2li..l"io quarters. Australasia is
the only part of the world In which
more wheat has been grown this year.
Tlie production of Australasian wheal
having ben ,53J.00 quarters, as com
pared with 4.200.000 quarters In 1S9S
The production of Europe this year Is
set down at 175.000.000 quarters, as com
pared with W.500.000 quarters In ISM."

A LESSON FROM ABROAD.
New York Sun.
The two great objects of attack by
the critics of the administration during
the war with Spain and since the Agu.
Inalao insurrection In the- Philippines
were and have been, flint, 'Vmbalmed
beef." and, second, the censorship of
news reports from Manila by G.-mval
Otis.
The accusations regarding "embalm
ed beef" were made with such a nro-
longed howl. In which many deluded
republican newspapers Jtrfned, that at
one time the enemies of the administra
tion were rejoicing In the hi.oe. that
they would destroy all chances of re
publican majority In the congress elec
ted last year. So persistently aid vo
ciferously were they made, with the
assistance, and provocation, of th
general In titular command of the
army, that a voluntary commission was
selected by the president to Investigate
them. After months of Inquiry, during
which hundreds of witnesses) were ex
amined, the commission reported that
they had no foundation in fa-t that
no 'embalmed beef' had been supplied
to the commissary department of the
army or Issued to tbe troops. The howl
was kept up, however, on the ground
that this was only a "whitewashing"
of the government by a picked commls-J
slon. Thereaft?r the Investigation was
entrusted to a strictly military court
of inquiry, composed of dlmingulhed
officers of the army. Its finding was the
same there was no "embalmed beef."
! The main accus.uin of the howlers
against the government concerned
j chle'ly the canned beef which had been
I long Included In the regular ration of
the army. It was described as unfll
for food, as treated with Injurious and
I even poisonous chemicals, as prov-ica
tiv of disease and Its Issue to the
trwps an outrage committed under th
' Influence of corrupt motives.
' It was true that the f ame canned beef
was a navy ration and had be.-n used
as such during the war, but the howlers
would pay no heed to facts. Conse

It Is to beat and destroy the enemy,

prlc-s for grain are considerably higher
' than In this country, partly owing to

There Is only one way to cure deafness,
and thnt Is by constitutional remedies.
Deafness Is caused by an Inflamed con
dition of the mucous lining of the Eus
tachian Tube. When this tube Is In
flamed you have a rumbling sound or
Imperfect hearing, and when It Is en
tirely closed, deafness Is the result, and
unlws the Inflammation can be taken
out and this tube restored to Its nor
mal condition, hearing will be destroyed
forever; nine cases out of ten are
cauecd by catarrh, which Is nothing

surfaces.
