(From a Staff Correspondent.!
WASHINGTON. Sept. 11. (Special.)
John 8. Leech, public primer ror me Philip
pine Islands, In In Washington on matters
connected with hl office. Mr. Leech hss
Just made hid cstlmnte for 1&6, amounting
to 8!,3C2 pesos, of I199.W1 In gold. The
government printing plnnt lrt the Philip-
' pines Is In Rome particulars even better
equipped than the government's own print-
. ery at the national capital. To a ' large
degree type la set by machinery, Mergnn
thelcrs being In use and outside of the
instructors on the machines, who are Amer
icans, the tabor employed Is entirely nntlv-.
In addition to a perfect machine plant the
' office Is equipped with, the latest Improved
machinery for binding, etecirolyplng and
stereotyping, together with a complete
photo-engruvlng outfit. All the machines
have Independent motors, electric power
being used. All the branches connected
with a printing office are taught the na
tives, 240 sons of the far east being em
ployed, and their adoptability Is the sub
ject of sincere congratulation On the part
, of the government printer, for the Philip,
pines, who hns before him a dally report
of what each native employe has dene the
previous day and the matter upon which
he was engaged. The native Is paid about
one-half what the American mechanic gets,
which is 800 per cent more than he ever got
before.' " "
Taft Poller Benrs'Frolt.
"The policy of the administration to
ward the Filipino," said Mr. Leach, "can
not be too highly praised. The policy
which Secretary Taft inaugurated when ho
was at the head of the Philippine commis
sion Of training the pejple is bearing
splendid fruit. The printers we get from
the states go out as experts, one 'clause
of their contract stipulating , that they
must teach the native workmen the art
of composition, the manner in which the
linotype machine Is operated, together wltii
such other Information ns 'will make the
native a practical comporitor. The' Fili
pino takee kindly to Instruction and is ac
quiring a knowledge of the language rap
idly. In fact, the manner in which the.
commission has" conducted affairs is tha
wonder of the island. Where there was
doubt and hesitation wfth the first com
ing of the Americans to the Philippines,
here Is now wafrh -hearted acceptance
of our way of rrbing things, nnd the con
trasts between' Spanish and American rule
re freely talked rr'ahd still more com
mented on' by the Filipinos'. Before' the ad
vent of the Americans the government was
looked upon by the native as something
that if it was touched he" Would be hurt, ex
cept, of course, by those holding official
positions and getting a part of fhe 'wag.'
Our government of this Islands has been
open an4 above board. The native has come
to feel a personal Interest In the develop
ment of America rule In the Philippines,
He fsels a sifety that he never felt before.
While confidence In our manner of govern
ment on the part of the Filipino is grad
ual it la. none the less certain and I look
forward to the acceptance of our institu
tions by the natives of the Island of Luson
a certain to come about as that the sun
gives ua llgat an heat "
"While I cannot predict the future for I
. urn noi anvisea us to me lutura nniirv nf

UOtid i CJIhliit . Vi lr, huh m.V.

Governor Wright, who succeeded Secretary
Taft,. has many of the qualifications of
; Judge Taft.- Ha Is slow to take a position,
. but when onca- taken he is adamant. Me is
a brave as a lion and looks to the future
.of the Philippines .with the highest hope.
Of course I do not know whether the Fili
pino is or la not born who can govern him
self. .Superintendent Of ' Education Pur-
rows testified before . a senate committee
that the Filipino was not yet born for self
government, ..That, of .course, is the Judg
ment of the scientist, I am only a plain
printer , and . could hardly be expected to
gva ar Intelligent judgment In that par
ticular. ; I do know, however, that those
employed In tho government printing office
In the island show a' very great advance
and that wa are. bound to get Intelligent
workmen through the course. that Is being
pursued by the Philippine commission. Llv
in la somewhat higher than It la In Wash
ington and there are needs In tropical coun
tries that are not required in temperate
climates like that Of the national capita!.
I am going back to the Philippines to help
wherever I can o bring about a better
understanding between the natlvos and the
government wt have established."
Church Is Heavy Loser.
The failure of Thomaa E. Weggaman,
which continues to be the talk of Wash
ington because of Ms large holdings of
funds belonging to the Catholic church, la
vary likely to result' In the establishment
Of a financial department of the Catholic
church. Mr. 'Waggaman, who was re
garded as strong as the rock of Gibraltar
and who was' blindly entrusted with hun
dreds of thousands of dollars by the offi
cials of the-. Cathollo ' church. Is almost
. heartbroken over the failure of his invest?
ments. Ha still has faith In the character
- of the Investments and says that time will
prove his Judgment to have been correct,
vBut Mr. Waggaman la a bankrupt, and
Lhs CathoHc church, through Ita ronresentu.
Uvea here, has gone about to protect Itself
wherever, possible. Sentiment plays no
part in the financial affairs of the Church
of Roma. - Ita investments must be sur-
s fc. , L. .
luuniHu vj fiiL-vwi nwiun, in uraer,
therefore., that the Waggaman failure may
not have a repetition it Is understood that
Cardinal Olhbons looks with favor upon the
scheme of a financial department in con
nection with the church. ' The African
Methodist church has pursued this policy
for a number of years, all the bishops of
that church In -tho United States, together
with the bishops of Australia, Mew Zealand,
Liberia and other countries doing their
financial business through the financial
Office of that church In this' city. They
pay a man 84.009 per year ah the active
head of a board of directors, who pass
upon church loan and other transactions
of a financial character in which the church
may be Interested. Just what form of man
agement will be recommended- for the care
of the finances of the Catholic church is
not known. ' but the idea Is general among
leading Catholics that no one man should
have the handling of the vast sums- which
coma to. the Catholic church . throughout
the United States, particularly sums des
ignated for Ita educational institutions. It
is expected- thst a meeting will be held
shortly of the several heads of the Cathollo
university, as well as of "Georgetown uni
versity, with Cardinal Gibbons. Attorney
. Charles Bonaparte ef Baltimore and finan
ciers holding to the Catholic faith, when
- soma general elan of handling the fine noes
of the church will be agreed upon.
Ma ay Hew Mea la: Coaajress
The list of nominees for congress as pre
mril bv the con area id an a I romailttees of
the two leading parties show a larger1 ouai
Vav 4f new men for'congreas than baa oc
curred for many yeara Members of promi
nent house committees are fsrlng badly In
this campaign. General when a man gets
an appointment to the appropriations com
mittee, the ways and means committee or
the judiciary committee his constituents
have enough pride In his success to return
him to congress. While few members of
the present house committee on appropria
tions have fallen hy the wayside, yet that
committee will present a number. of new
faces In the Fifty-ninth congress. Repre
sentative Vanvorhls of Zanesvllle, O., who
has been In the house for alnjnst twelve
years and who would have stood a good
chance of becoming chairman of the ap
propriations committee should the present
chairman, Mr. Hemenway, be elected to
the senate this winter In Indiana, has been
defeated for rennmlnatlnn and a republican
by the name of S. O. Dawes, a brother of
the former comptroller of the currency,
Charles G. Dawes, named In his stead.
Almost the same thing has happened to
a democratic member of -the committee,
who, should the house -go democratic,
would have been next to the chair and
Influential In shaping the money bll". Rep
resentative Rice A. Plrrce of Tennessee,
who has been In the house for fourteen
years, was overwhelmingly defeated for
renomlnatlon by Finis Garreit. A dem
ocratic mrtnber of the ways and mcins
committee, Representative Sam B. Cooper
of Texas, has failed of a renomlnatlon
after serving twelve years In the popuUr
brnnch'of congress. A majority of all the
democrats In his district were for nomina
ting Mlm -again, but by a convention sys
tem he lost control of a majority of the
delegates and thus went down to defeat.
It Is expected that a new man will take
the place of Elmer J. Burkett of the First
Nebraska district on the appropriations
committee, should Mr. Burkett be e'ected
to the senate, as now seems likely. Mr.
Burkett hns bfen an exceedingly valuable
member of the committee, but as he has
an ambition to sit In the upper branch,
where he believes he can do more good for
his state than remaining on the appropria
tions committee, there will be a keen con
test for his place, probably participated
In by all the republican members from
Nebraska, who will make every effort to
save the placeor the state.
BUTCHERS ISSUE LETTER
New Yorkers gay They Withdrew
. from National Body Because of
Incompetent Leadership,
NEW YORK, Baft. 11. At a meeting of
the central body of the new fnlon Butcher
.Workmen of this city, formed after the
butchers of New York decided to ignore the
Amalgamated Association of Butcher
Workmen and Meat Cutters of North
America, a letter was given out, which, It
waa announced, had been, sent to the
Butcher Workmen and organized labor In
general in the west, explaining the action
of the men in returning to work while the
western butchers were on strike. .
The letter, after referring to the inci
dents leading up to the second strike order,
says, in part:
"After obeying the call tho second time
and finding the agreement between Don
nelly and the packers, which we here con
sider the worst, most stupid and un fairest
settlement ever signed by a representative
-of organised labor, and a blunder ef call
ing a second strike and breaking the agree
ment which ha had signed the day -previous,
we then, the butcher workmen of
New York, seeing that our interests were
In danger in the hands of such people as
Donnelly, Sterling and Floersch, and be
cause we could not see aur way clear to
continue under their radical dictation any
longer, we sent pne of our men to Chicago
to look over the .field, to bring, baok the
true facts, and report the same to us here
in New York.; ' ' ,
... "Being armed with this evidence, we
deemed It essential to at One withdraw
from aha international organization by a
referendum Vote 'of the locals In New York
and vicinity, which waa unanimous," '
Tha letter goes on to say that a new
union was .formed, at' settlement, of the
strike effected and adds:
"In New York ,and vicinity ws are a
good dea4 wiser, but somewhat poorer by
following blindly the unreasonable methods
and the high-handed dictation of our of
ficers In the west and never In the future
shall we follow the - reckless leadership fjf
a national organisation until wa are first
assured that our interests will be man
aged by sober and Intelligent officers. We
therefore ask our brothers in the west not
to get discouraged by the crushing defeat
they have received, but build up your or
ganisation on a more solid basis and some
day in the future when your action will
ba wiser and your officers sane, we will
be only too glad to again grasp your hand
and offer to you our hearty co-operation."

OMAHA. Sept. IS. W4.
The grain markets were the scene of
quite a contest between the bears and
the bull element today, neither side
making much headway, although the
bulls seemed to have a little the better
of the position, so far.as wheat was con
cerned. There are many of the opinion that
the damage will not be us serious as the re-
fmrts heretofore have suggested, but there
s ahsnlutly nothing In the news of the day
to Justify this opinion. The government
crop report is due today, and there is much
Interest In Its showing. That the market
for wheat held as well as It did Is an evi
dence that the bulls feel considerable confi
dence In their position, and that shorts cov
ered more or less freely. Inclined to the
ssme opinion In a measure. The government
showing will be much nearer a statement
of existing conditions than it waa a month
or even two months earlier, for the ad
mitted reason, that there hus been mate
rially less change in crop conditions dur
ing the last ten days than during the like
period of AugusX or July. More harvest re
turns are In, and this will add to the value
of the reports. It Is not expected by the
wise ones that there will be much of a sur
prise on the part of the wheat traders In
the crop news, but those who have been ex
pecting a chunge from the 87.8 condition of
corn a month ago may be fooled. It will be
difficult to convince the trade that corn hns
gone backward during August and Septem
er, although there were some 'ool days
and cooler nights. August Inst year addd
8fl,0u0,ii00 bushels of corn to the crop. The
Indicated crop of corn a month ago was 2,
tfl7.000.00O bushels. The report will be the
first to show the actual damage from rust
to wheat. Comparisons will be made with
56,000,000 bushels n month ago. Oats a
month ago promised W.OOo.000 bushels, and
the showing this afternoon should practi
cally Indicate the correct harvest.
When the market opened the shorts
started In to cover their wheat contracts,
not caring to go over the day with the pos
sibility of the government showing making
a radical change In sentiment. This whs
attended with an advance of He for Septem
ber wheat, V4C for December and He for
Mav, this being the strongest future
throughout the session. After the demand
had been largely satisfied there was a turn
toward lower figures, followed by another
up turn and a close with partial retention
of tho gains on the September and May de
liveries. , .
Corn was weak early In the session, and
declines of about H point were sustained In
September corn, with December a full
point off and May He lower. The bears op
erated on the thecry that the government
rtport would be decidedly bearish, but they
were 'not willing to stay short until the
close, and the result was an advance that
practically recovered the greater part of
the earlier losses.

Featares of the Tradlasr and Closing
Prices on Board of Trade.
CHICAGO, Sipt. 10. Uncertainty as to
the showing of the forthcoming govern
ment report restricted trading in the grain
pits today, resulting in a featureless mar
ket. At the close December wneat was
up liflHjC. Corn was down H'nV. Oats
were off H6'c. Provisions closea with a
loss of 6c. ,
The wheat market opened a trifle easier
as a result of lower cables and continued
favorable weather, December being off
HHc at $1 OfcVal.iey The demand, which
was very light at the immediate op ning.
soon showed considerable improvement.
The demand was principally fur the De
cember option, which soon rose to ll.Oh'fc
Trading during the remainder of the ses
sion was mainly of an evenlng-up charac
ter.' The fact that the government report
would be issued iate in the afternoon pre
vented any great amount of new business,
traders preferring to hold off until the
announcement of official figures on the new
crop was made. The market closed firm
with December at tl-08Vul0H- Clearances
of wheat and flour were equal to 143.900
bushels. Primary receipts were 918,40.1
bushels, compared with 1, 00.300 bushels a
year ago. Minneapolis, Duluth and Chi
cago reported receipts .of 'Hi cars, against
249 cars last week and 9- cars a year go.
Favorable advices regarding the condi
tions of the maturing crop ana a fear that
the government report would be bearish
caused weakness In corn. December
opened a shade lower to a shade higher
at 51H?ialHc: sold between KlHrT0,c and
51Hc, and cloned at 61c. Local receipts
were 682 cars, with 69 of contract grade.
Oats were steady, with only a light trade.
The market was Influenced large, y by the
action of corn. Considering the very heavy
movement, prices held remarkably firm.
December opened unchanged to H'n'c
higher at S2c to 32H32Hc. sold between
S2Vu3.'e, and closed at 32fcfe32Hc. Local
recHjpte were 136 cars.
Provisions were easier.' Selling by pit
traders, due to prospects of increased hog
receipts, was the chief, reason for a small
decline throughout the-entire list. The
volume of trading was small. At the close
the January products were each 5c lower,
pnrk closing at tl2 47Vs, lard at 37.12H and
ribs at i.55.
Estimated receipts for Monday: Wheat.
74 cars; corn, 786 cars; oats, 159 cars; hogs,

Boston Wool Market.
BOSTON, Sept. 10 XVOOL The Com
mercial Bulletin suys: The wool mar
ket is Arm and quqtntlons are tend
ing, upwards. The big reduction in
stocks through the heavy operations of
manufacturers, extending over several
weeks, has put the supply at present for
sale at the lowest point known at this
time of year. It is estimated that close to
90 per cent of Boston's allotment of Mon
tana wool from the ctlp'of 1904 was trans
ferred to the' control of manufacturers.
Other territory is also well sold up. The
situation is very strong" and 70c. scoured,
for One- territory Is predicted. The week's
deliveries exceed the receipts by over 1.000,
000 lbs. The shipment of wool from Boston
to date (Tom December 81, 19f3, according
to the same authority, is 153.437,217 lbs.,
against 159,372,987 lbs. at the same time
lust year. The receipts to date are 252.
142.778 lbs., against 219,026,846 lbs. for the
same period last year.
LOtDON, Sept. 10. WOOL The tone or
the wool market is steady. Yorkxhlre has
been rather more active lately, finer grades
being In stronger demand. Merinos are re
ported In better demand in German centers,
while business in the north of Fr.ince Is
dull. The arrivals of wool for the fifth se
ries of auction sales amount to 64.615 bales,
including 24,000 forwarded dlreet to spinners.

f'ATTI.K- There were a few cattle re
ported this morning, but they weie practi
cally all billed direct, so there was no mar
ket. For the week receipts Bhow a very
slight increase over lust week, but there U
still a big fulling oft as compared with the
same week of lost year, the decrtase
amounting to about 7,000 head. As will be
seen from the table of receipts above sup
plies were much more evenly distributed
through the week than usual. With the
exception of Friday and Saturday there
was not a Variation of more than 1,600 head
from the heaviest day. which was Tuesday,,
to the lightest day, which, was Wednesday.
It la alao noticeable that prices fluctuated
back and foith much leas than usual, which
bears out the prediction made by trauen.
that if shippers would distribute their ship
ments through the week a much more even
and satisfactory market would be experi
enced. '
There has been a fair sprinkling of corn
fed steers In the receipts, and while prices
strengthened the first of the week and
eased off a trifle toward the close, there
has not been much change all the week.
Good stuff may be quoted steady with the
close of last week, while common and
warmed-up cattle may be Just a shade
weaker. The change, though is so small
as to be hardly worth noticing. Good to
choice cornfed steers may be quated from
t5.25 to 85-86; fair to good, 85.00 to 86.25, and
common to fair from 84.25 to 34.90.
A large proportion of the offerings all the
week consisted of western grass beef steers,
but the demand was if anything in excess
of the supply. Prices strengthened gradu
ally all the week and closed fully a quarter
higher than they were tha week before, and
some of the more desirable grades were as
much as 30j3rc higher. Good to choice
grades may be quoted from $3.76 to $4.35,
and something strictly prime would hr.ng
considerably more than that. Farr to good,
S3.4ofeS.70, and common to fair, t2.75$8.26.
There were very few cornfed cows and
heifers on sale, most everything In the
butcher stock line being grassers. The
market strengthened and weaaened to some
extent from day to day, but at the close of
the week prices on the medium and chclca
grades are about steady with the close of
last week, while canners are a little higher.
Packers are now operating their cunning
departments 'to some extent, so that from
now on there will be a demand for canners
which has not been the case flnce the pack
ing house strike was called. Good to choice
frass cows are quotable from $3.00 to 33.16;
air to good, 32.35 to $2.80, and canners and
cutters from 82.00 to t2.36.
Bulla are fully steady for the week,
grassers selling largely from t2.00 to t2.50.
while veal calves have shown an advance
of fully a quarter. Good to choice grades
sell from 35.00 to $5.60 and commoner kinds
mostly from $4.00 to t6.00.
The demand for feeders has been fully
equal to the supply and In fact has been
sufficient to advance prices I01i20c on choice
heavies and choice yearlings. Cattle weigh
ing from 1.060 to 1.200 pounds' seem to be In
the greatest demand -and choice yearlings
come next. The medium weights snd com
mon cattle nf all weights are m more than
steady for the week. Good to choice feed
ers are quotable from .13.50 to 33 85 : fair to
good, 83.15 to 13.40. and common stuff largely
from $8.75 to $8.00.
HOGS There was only a fair run of hogs
here this morning, and as the demand from
both shippers and packers waa in good
shape, the market ruled active and stronger
on desirable grades. With the exception
of heavy .hogs the market could be quoted
strong to a nicke) higher and fairly active
at the advanoe. There were no strictly
firlme light weights offered, so that the top
s no better than yesterday. Medium and
moxed hogs sold largely from $3 2645.45 and
choice lights from 85.4o$i6.60. Heavy hogs
sold mostly from t5.26iu-6.30, - or only about
steady with yesterday. It waa rather a
peculiar market, as some of the salesmen
suld that they never could get the market
for their hogs and were quoting It no
higher. The extreme close of the market
was, if anything, a little weaker.
For the week reoelpts huve been very
light, there being a decrease as compared
with last week amounting to about 7,000
head, and as compared with the same week
of lust year thero is a falling off of about
7.000 head. The demand has been in good
shape, and with light receipts prices have
moved upward. As compared with the
close of last week there is a net gain of
6frl0c. This carries prices to the highest
point of the year to date. Representative
sales;

SHEEP There were practically no fresh
receipts of cattle this morning and conse
quently there was no murket. For the
week supplies have also been light, there
being a decrease as compared with last
week amounting to about 7,(i head and
as compared with the same week of last
year the falling off amounts to about U.'MJ
head.
The demand from this point has been In
good shape from packers, and as a result
the market on most days has been reason
ably active and no great change in ruling
prices for sheep has been noted. On kidw
flays the feeling na a little strnncer than
on others, but at the close of the week
there Is very Hills chsnge from the close
of last week. Packers seemed to be anxious
for supplies so that In reality the market
may be quntsd as closing strong.
Good lambs have also held steady for
the week with the demand active. In the
case or the fair to goon grades. However,
receipts have been rather liberal and. owing
to severe breaks at. other points, the mar
ket her that rumm has enseri nf? ns
! much as 16'u?c. Good stuff, however, has
soia wen all the week.
The snnie ns haj been the case for some
little time there have -been more feeder
buyers on the market this week than sell
ers. Everything in the way of both sheep
and lambs that was at all deslrnble met
with ready sale at good, strong pr!c.
There has slso been a big demand for
breeding ewea at what looked to be strong
prires. '
