FEATURES OF GRAIN BUSINESS Suspension of Wheat-Exporting oa Pacific Coast and Exceptional De mand for Oregon and Wash ington Flour. WASHINGTON. D. C, Oct 7. (Special.) The August summary of Internal com merce. Including eight months ending -with August, as prepared by the Department of Commerce and Labor through its Bu reau of Statistics, brings to light certain .facts relating to domestic trade in differ ent parts of the country, which, on the whole, indicate normal conditions for this, the transitional month of the calendar year. The beginning- of the new commercial year in the grain movement was marked by some unusual features, among which were (1) extraordinary lightness of re ceipts compared with last year; (2) a demand of the Northwestern milling cen ters for Winter wheat, on account of shortness in the supply of Spring wheat, even to the extent of checking the move ment of Southwestern grain to the Gulf for export; (3) the practical suspension of the grain-exporting trade on the Pacific Coast, owing to the requirements of flour milling and to the wide difference between prices of Pacific Coast grain in England and the price at which wheat producers held their product; (4) the exceptional de mand of China and Japan for the flouf output of the far Northwest, facilitated no doubt by the cut of Oriental steamship lines from ?5 to ?3 per ton in ocean freights. Live stock receipts of five markets in August were -2,742,699 head of all kinds, compared with 2.5C8.003 head in 1902 and 2,743,375 head in 1S0L Of this year's total Chicago took somewhat less than half, Kansas City a sixth, and Omaha, St. Louis, and St Joseph nearly a million head. Although August arrivals exceeded those of the two earlier years, the lead for eight months is still with 1901, when 21,819,350 head of stock were marketed at these markets.

On the Great Lakes coastwise trade for August reached the total of 8,375,944 net tons of receipts of freight With the ex ception of June, this was the heaviest month's traffic of this year.

When she reached the opposite shore she headed back for a long spin under water. Suddenly she rose less than 20 feet from the Dahlgren, which was lying at the dock. Lieutenant Nelson signalled to reverse her engines, but her headway was too strong, and she crashed Into the port side of the Dahlgren, tearing a hole four feet long through the plates just aft of the Dahl gren's engine room. The only mark on the Shark was the tearing- of the paint from her ram-like bow. Lieutenant Miller said afterward that the strong ebb tide made the Shark momentarily uncontrollable.

The annual reports AMERICANS MORE HOPEFUL Alaska Boundary Arguments Will Be Concluded Today. LONDON, Oct 7. By tomorrow evening, the Alaska boundary tribunal will prob ably have finished all its labors except the pronouncement of its decision. General J. M. Dickinson, of the American counsel, expects to say the last word In the con trovers ey before the adjournment of the afternoon session, after which the com missioners will consider the arguments among themselves in private. They are not expected to take long before announc ing their decislpn or disagreement So fully have both sides of the question been threshed that there will be little to be said when the commissioners meet in private", and It Is generally believed If the arguments have had any Influence they have already had their effect Nothing which had been adduced Is believed to have weakened the previously expressed opinions of the Americans and Canadian members of the tribunal. What Influence the contentions have had on Lord Alver stone Is naturally the chief point of in terest and surmise. Unless he sees some reason to disagree with the Canadian case, the tribunal' can quickly agree to disa gree. If the American case has Im pressed his lordship some Interesting private developments are likely to occur which may delay the decision. In any case the best-Informed opinion Is that some result will be reached within two or three days after Counsel Dickinson has closed his arguments. The Americans interested In the caso today expressed, though In a guarded manner, a more hopeful view than they have hitherto held. General Dickinson resumed his argu ment before the commission this morning In excellent voice. He continued his con tention as to the meaning of the term "coast" as employed In the treaty and in the negotiations. ' All sides admit that Mr. Dickinson" Is making a strong summing up for the United States. He ideals minutely with each point raised In the speeches of Attorney-General FInlay, Solicitor-General Carson- and Christopher Robinson, K. C, of Canadian counsel, endeavoring to refute by means of countless references to legal authorities, and continues to hold the mem bers of the commission and other auditors. Interspersing his argument with humor ous and other illustrations, which are listened to with evident pleasure by Attorney-General FInlay and other opposing counsel, and by the Commissioners them selves. Mr. Dickinson emphasized the American contention oh the meaning of the word "coast" and concluded the morning ses sion with declaring there could be no doubt Judging from the maps, that the coast line must run .as claimed by the United States. Mr. McCormlck, the United States Am bassador at St Petersburg, was among those present at the proceedings today. Mr. Dickinson, during the afternoon, maintained that all the maps showed a uniform understanding that the boundary line ran around the heads of all bays and inlets. Each government concerned, during the 70 years following 1825, either put forward or accepted as correct maps snowing this. It was not until 1S9S that Great Britain claimed the- line should, run elsewhere. The lease of the territory to the Hudson's Bay Company left no doubt anent the understanding between Great Britain and Russia regarding the extent of the lisiere or strip which Russia was to obtain by the treaty, which correspond with the present American' contention.
