WEEKLY MARKET LETTER. The End of Uio Remarkable Leitel Wheat Deal. ' Reported by Downing, Hopkins & Co., Inc., Board of Trade Drokers, 711 to 714 Chamber of Commerce building, Portland, Oregon.) The Loiter wheat deal, so-oalled, whioh was certainly one of the most remarkable business enterprises of modern times, has come to an end. Liquidation is now the order of the aay, and many millions of money which were at one time profits on one sido of the ledger have been wiped out by losses on the other side of that same truth-telling book. It is the old story ovor again of Pro metheus challenging the 'gods. The forces of nature are too strong for any man, and work and contrive as ho may, he cannot maintain himself against that eternal decree that seed time and harvest shall not. fail The outlook in 1897 for the pur chase of wheat justified all , that Mr. Leiter did. There were short crops everywhere abroad, and the United States . alone possessed the grain the whole world needed and must have. As the year advanced and it became , more and more apparent that the short age was certain, the big deal began to look more and , more promisingand after the December deliveries were pro vided for it seemed-easy enough sailing for the young merchant. ' ' . Mr. Armour, who is no mean 'Judge of such , undertakings, and who has fought many a great commercial battle on the board of trade, in speakin'g of this splendid deal, said: "The pluck and wisdom manifested by him in the remarkable deal which ho all but enc cesfully consummated, challenged the admiration .,' of men everywhere.- I fully expected that he would carry the tieni tnrougn saieiy, as mere was merit in his position." This is testimony from one who had felt the prowess of the youth fuj com mercial athlete, and who, in a meas ure, had been put to his trumps to meet that antagonist on his own ground, and it is therefore all the more trust worthy as evidence that Mr. Leiter had a strong position to begin with. , But time and tide wait for no man, and ever-teeming mother earth gladly responds to the husbandman's toil. Unprecedented prices were responded to by an unprecedented crop, .'and bountiful nature offered to pour Into Mr. Leitor's lap a inuoh groator pro duct than he cared to "possess. He wisely closed the binB. Seattle Markets. , Vegetable's Potatoes Yakimas, $11 fflllS imr tnn: nntivpn. Hrt3)10: fiallfor. nia potatoes, $1.502 per 100 pounds.

INSURGENTS IN THE SUBURBS Food Has Given Out and the Soldiers .Are Starving City Will Mot Be Taken at Present, But Ita Surrender la Kipeotwd.,. Manila, via Hong Kong, June 20. Spanish power is crumbling in the Philippine islands. General Pena and a thousand Spanish soldiers have sur rendered at Santa Cruz. Similar sur renders have taken place at Laguna and at Panipanga, and in each case hardly anybody was killed. It is reported that ' Rear-Admiral Dewey Is tinablo to restrain the insur gents, but their conduct is satisfac tory. There ie no necessity for inter ference, as no excesses whatever have been committed. . The insurgents proposed to form a republic under Anglo-American tutel age, and threatened to visit with' se vere penalties the insurgents who have become turncoats, especially Paterno, a prominent native protege of the Span iards. . - There was desultory firing today in every quarter on the outskirts of the town, with no material result, although .there were several artillory attaoks and one explosion, whloh killed six Span iards and wounded many others. , The ammunition of the Spaniards is HOW SAMPSON BATTERED TUB 1 From a photograph taken after the bombardment. " This shovra much of the damage done by tho nhelle of the Amwlcnn - fleet Old Onstle Morro was the greatest sufferer, so fcv vs Vlsjble effects are concerned, but many oi the .mors modem fortifications were hammered with equal effects. utterly untrustworthy, - booause it i, old, rotten and has never been, tested.' The Spaniards are Impotent . with rage, bewilderment and despair. : The cafes tonight . are crowded with officers with their hands in their pockets, gap ing vacantly, while an, intermittent fusllade is ' audible in all directions. Carloads of food have been stored in side the walled citadel, with the inten tion of . standing a -siege and defying the American warships. But the idea ia ridiculously preposterous, for the citadel, so-called, is totally untenable against the fire of a modern fleet of warships. . j There was ' conoertod attack last evening in every direction. The Span iards were informed of the insurgents' intention to .capture two magazines outside the fortifications. Therefore, they concentrated their forces for a an prems effort ik thoir defense, and bom barded the jungle all night long. ; In the meantime the insurgents captured Malabon and Calloocan, in the northern suburbs. The Spaniards were thus out witted, . outgeneraled and harassed to death. ''.,'"'''"'. During the previous night, owing to a misunderstanding, a squad of Span ish artillerymen stampeded from Malate Into Manila, causing immense constetnation, it being believed that tbe insurgents were storming the city. A Spanish officer commanding an outpost at San Juan left his men in charge of a sergeant, came to town and was found helplessly drunk. It is re ported that he was sentenced to death. A 0-inch gun at Malate, while being fired into the woods over the Spaniards' heads, struck a tree and killed several Spaniards. , There is a story current here this evening to the effect that the captain and officers of the German warship Irene went to a picnic on horseback to the further outposts of San Juan, ao oorapanied by the highost Spanish officers of the staff. Thoy had a cham pagne lunch, and the captain of the Irene la said to have made a speech, during whioh he declared the Ameri cans "will never annex the Philippine islands while William ' remains em peror." The Germans, it , is furthor said, with their Spanish hosts, might, have been killed by the insurgents, who had the road to San Juan strongly ambushed, bnt it is further asserted the insurgents had orders to avoid giv ing a pretext for German intervention. Ran the Blockade, Kingston, Jamaica, June 20. A dis patch from Manzanillo, province of Santiago de Cuba, reoeived here today, announced the arrival there of the steamer Purisima Concepcion, which sailed from Kingston about 2 o'clock Thursday morning with food supplies for the Spaniards, and carrying, it ia said, $ 100,000 in gold. IT HAS SAILED. Spanish Reaerve Fleet Leaves Cadiz for Unknown destination. Washington,' Jtme 20. The state department has received tho following dispatch from its agent at Gibraltar: ; "The Carlos V. Pelayo,' Rapirto, Pa triot, Audaz, " Osada, Prosperlna, Gir alda, Preleo Colon (with the miuieter of marine on', board), Alfonzo. Doco, Canondong, Atnonip Lopez, Isla Panes, Buenos Ayres and San Franoisco, loft Cadiz yesterday. The first 11 passed the rock bound for - Carthagena for or dersi the last three had troops on board. - This la Admiral Camara'e Cadiz squadron and appears to be In the Mediterranean, bound for African shores." The army officials were satisfied, on learning today that the Cadiz fleet had sailed, that the ships would go to Porto Rico rather than to Cuba, if they crossed to this side. It was pointed out that this move would be the natur al strategio one for the Spanish com mander to take, as there' was still something left for them to eave'in Porto RiOQ. The naval view is not similar to that taken by the army officers. The former do not attach as much Importance to the fleet as the - latter, and few officers can be found to" believe that the .ships will ever venture far from the Spanish coast, much less attempt to cross the Atlantictor go to the Philippines. . The list of, vessels in this fleet is rather formidable in sound, but as a matter of fact it includes not more than two up-to-date war vessels, excepting the small torpedo gunboats. It ie-certainly the opinion of naval officers here that if Dewey had the Monterey with him he would have no trouble in repulsing the whole Spanish force, while the Cadiz fleet could not afford pastime for Sampson's steel bulldogs. 1 Spanish Hopoa Are liaised. Madrid, June 20. There are a num ber ot rumors in circulation as to the ANCIENT PORTS OF SAN JUAN. destination of Admiral Caraaia's fleet, one that the warships are heading foi Boston with the intention of bombard ing New England towns, .and another that the fleet is going to the Philip pines. . There is a feeling of great optimism in offioial circles here and in the lob bies of the oortes, owing to tho depar ture of Camara's fleet. It is said it consists of over, 20 ships, including aux iliary cruiseis, and it is added that it has an 'enormous quantity of war ma terial on board, including a mysterious new oxplosive. It is also whispered that the squadron, when at sea, is to be divided and proceed to different destinations. Admiral Dewey's Advicoa. Washington, June 20. The navy department has recoived the following from Admiral Dewey: "Cavite, June 15, via Hong Kong. There is little change in the situation since my telegram on Juno 8. The in surgents continue hostilities and have practically surrounded Manila. They have taken 2,50(5 Spanish prisoners, whom, they treat most humanely. They do not intend to take the city at the present time. , Twelve mercjiant vessels are anchored in the bay, with refugees, under guard of neutral mon-of-war; this with tny permission. The health of the squadron continues excel lent. The German commander-in-chief arrived today. Three .'-German, two British, one French and one Japanese men-of-war are now in port. Another German man-of-war Is expected "DEWEY." Sierra Leone Uprising. Liverpool, June 20. Steamers which have arrived hero from Sierra Leone report that 1,000 people were killed in the reoent uprising in that district. One Hundred and 'twenty inhabitants of Freotown, most ofjthem traders, are known to have been massaored, and other colonists were oarried into the bush by the "war boys" and undoubt edly met a worse fate. Three hun dored friendly natives were killed. Be sides the white missionaries, six col ored missionaries of the United Breth ren in Christ were murdered atManoh barrgru. The English missionaries are at the mercy of the "war boys," but have not been molosted. Madrid Is Depressed. - London June 20. A Madrid dis patch to the Daily Mail sayB: Senor Sagasta, replying in the cortes to a question as to whether Manila had fallen, replied in the negative, but added that the situation there was of the gravest oharacter. The dispatches from Madrid agree that this statement, together with the report that the rebels are attacking the city, have caused intense depression.

Turks and Jews, as well as Chris tians, according to The Kolnschie Volks zeituug, have been muoh exoited by the sound of the three bells of the new Protestant Church in Jerusalem. For several centuries the use of bells by the Christians in Palestine, or elsewhere within tbe Ottoman Empire, had been prohibited by the Great Turk, who has conceded it now, however, to his friond and ally, the Evangelical German Kai ser. In the Theatre de la Turquie, published in 1688, it . is said, "The Turks hate bells, as a symbol of Chris tianity, and do not permit 1 even the Christians to use them. Only in a few remote mountain convents, or in lonely islands, where there are no resident Mohammedlans, ia the use of a bell tolerated. " . . ' SAILORS AND TIIEIlt GRIEVANCES.
