When William H. Seward, secre
tary o state In the administration of
1'resident Lincoln and President
Johnson, agreed with the represen
tatives of Russia that $200,000 should
be added to the $7,000,000 that this
country was to pay Russia tor sov
rreientv over Russian North Atneri
ca which is row Alaska, he did so
because Russia had given certain
concessions for fishing and at least
$200,000 was needed to buy these
concessoins.
flood loTtment,
Thai HoO.OOO ha been so (really In
creased by our Alaska fisheries aa to
amount to many mllllona of dollars since
th flag of tha United States waa raised
In Alaaka. Thla far northwestern terri
torial domain of tha United States and
th far southeastern territorial domain
which la tha Philippine archipelago, are
at thla time commanding attention irom
congress.
Among busines men who know the
present condition In Alaska tha opinion
In stronalv held that great aa la tha need
of wisdom In dealing with the. Philippine
altuatlon the need la equally great of
adequately legislating ao that the now
recognized stupendous reaourcea of Alaaka
ran be made of avail. We hava taken
nut of the Alaaka gold mlnea alnca the
peninsula came Into our possession and
chiefly alnca I9"t. gom 01 me money
value ot nearly i3ls.ooo.onn.
Rich Copper Mlnea.
Where conner la. rold la usually found
although not alwaya. Home of tha copper
mlnea of our northweatern state, ana
nearly all of our ellver mine yield gold
aa a by-product. We are chief among the
natlona of th world aa a producer of
copper and In the coura of a year or two
when other nation are able to buy copper
we ehall ba aelllng and exporting many
million pounds.
Tha proepectora found copper In Alaaka
and aome of them were Inclined to bo of
the opinion that with full development
of Alaaka'a copper reaourcea the aggregate
money value would bo greater man ine
araretata value of tha gold. They did
take out of the Alaaka mlnea laat year
copper ot the valua of I13.ooo.ou ana
that waa 16,000,000 mora than the value
of the gold which waa taken from the
mines. Seventy million pound In all
were taken from the copper mlnea and
aent to the United State.
We can build up a very large trade
with the Philippines and at the same
time we can, not by trad, but by pro
duction, gain many millions yearly In new
wealth If only congress could be persuaded
to aid Alnakm In exploiting lta reaourcea.
Few persona realize that Alaaka hae
yielded In the past 40 year from her
mines a total ot 1461,000,000. It ta pro
ducing gold, copper, silver, coal, lead,
platinum and tome petroleum. There wilt
be more petroleum by and by. In con
tinental United States there are no tin
mines excepting one or two of very small
capacity In the northwest. It Is the only
mineral In which the United States Is
lacking or would be If It were not for
Alaaka. For they have discovered tin
In Alaska and In 1111 took out nearly
76.000 pounds.
When tha Immediate questions of taxa
tion and tariff are acted upon by congress
strong effort will be made to persuade
that body to give careful consideration to
that great peninsula In the northwest so
that In due time there may be full ex
ploitation of Its resources, which on the
whole, are not aurpassed by any like area
In tha world.

New York. Ausr. 24. The further
decline in the principal industrial
stocks, which at times affected sonic
of the railway shares also, indicated
the same governing influences as
have prevailed for several weeks.
Financial sentiment has certainly
been affected by the confusing; re
sults of the collapsed speculation hi
the trade and produce of countries
to the south of us and the conse
quent hesitancy of the investing
community has made the market
more susceptible to speculative attacks.
The opportunity has not been
missed; the present operations for
the decline have been wholly based
on this attitude of the general pub
lic.
Forelga Exchange Stronger.
Foreign exchanae waa unlformlv
stronger. Sterling went to a higher rate
than has been reached on any day since
the spectacular 12-cent rise of August
8 and German marks made a further ad
vance over the week's earlier low price.
The future course of the German mark
will doubtless be watched with special In
terest in connection with the recurrent re
ports of the increase in Germany's export
trade. Some of theae reports are plainly
extravagant, such as the Pittsburgh ru
mor of 1.000.000 tone of German steel un
der negotiation for Import Into this
country. In the full 12 months period
ending last June, our entire Importation
of all kinds of goods from Germany was
only 1.669.000 tons and Germniiy's aver
age exports of steel per- month In 1920
to all outside countries was only 142,600
tons aa against an average of 479,800 in
J 913. Germany has. In fact, lost nearly
40 per cent of her steel-making capacity
through the war.

Chicago Grain
By CHARLES D. MICHAELS.
Chicago Tribuae-Omaha Bee Leased Wire,
Chicago, Aug. 24. Wheat prices
suffered a set-back late in the ses
sion, due to selling prompted by a
report that a deadlock existed be
tween the senate and house on the
rural credits bill. Hedging pres
sure by cash interests also was felt.
There was good buying daring the
greater part of the day on the strong
cash situation and keen export de
mand here. Final prices showed
wheat unchanged to Jc up; corn,
'AHc higher; oats, higher
and provisions unchanged to 25c
higher.
There was a noticeable improve
ment in the volume of buying orders
and the demand was more general.
A big short line was reported as be
ing covered and there was more ac
tivity displayed by the bulls, who
were encouraged by the continued
broad demand for wheat to be ap
plied on export sales. The advance
in prices was met with no material
increase in offerings. The offerings
in the May delivery commenced at
a good premium above December.
The extent of the early export busi
ness here was placed at 310,000 bush
els and there also were sales of
50,000 bushels to domestic milling in
terests. Country offerings to arrive
were said to be light.
Com Price Stronger.
Corn was Inclined to work hlsher alnno-
with wheat. The trade vlewa followed
the firms Tn the September delivery,
which sold at a slight premium above
the December against a discount yester
day. There wa good buying of the
former against sale of the latter by
commission houses and this accounted
tor the changed conditions. A brisk de
mand from the seaboard was In evi
dence. Oats were aided br the buls-e In wheat.
but trade continued mainly local in char
acter. Business was largely In the way
of changing between the September and
the December at a difference of 3 to
3fcc, which was a little widening of the
spread. The size of stocks acts as a
break against this market displaying
much Individuality, and Minneapolis
stocks showed an Increase of 1,015 000
bushels for four daya.
Cash rye closed to H4e hleher. No.
2 sold at $1.0001 00, and No. 3 sold
at 97018c. Shipping sales were 20.000
bushels. Duluth reported half a million
bushels Worked for export yesterday and
today, with exporters in the market for
half a million bushels more.
Cash barley was firm to lc higher.
Malting sales Tanged between 63067c.
Shipping sale were 10,000 bushels.
Pit Note.
A board of trade membership sold at
$6,600 net to the buyer today.
With the apparent elimination of the
pressure on coarse grains, there was less
sentiment of a bearish kind on wheat,
while the evidence of big export buying
was too plain to be ignored. With local
sales large, It Is almost certain that ex
port houses In the southwest and at the
seaboard are also doing a good business.
It Is the general opinion there will be
liberal shipments of durum wheat for
export from Duluth. A large part of the
wheat crop was durum wheat and usually
a big percentage of this finds it way
for export. Consequently the big receipts
at northwest points may not prove at all
burdensome.
Tradera have disposed to raise up a
bugaboo, but our prices for wheat are
still at attractive discounts under both Ca
nadian nnd Argentine wheat and with
this difference In our favor, continued
buying from all countries but the United
Kingdom is expected. There Is no ques
tion but what Canadian 'wheat will move
in volume and some of it may be hedged
in our markets. It la generally under
stood that Canada Is In a less favorable
position to extend credlta to foreign buy
ers than the exporters or thla ceurtry.
Wichita, Kan., reported the smallest
receipts of wheat In many weeka. The
leading dealer said they were unable to
buy wheat in the country last nignt.
High pricea for wheat In India, where
the grain la said tn be selling at twice
the price prevailing last year, ao not
look as It there would be any expert
from that country. The Indian government
Is understood to have been asked, to in
tervene In reaard to nrlces.
Heavy rains have fallen tn Australia
and the general promise for the crop ta
good.
Trading In May delivery wheat atarted
today and there was only a moderate
volume of trade with narrow fluctua
tions early. The opening price waa $1.13.
This was about 3c over the December.
Corn is beginning to reflect the big ex
port sales which are placed at 3,000,000
bushels so far this week. As a result
the market ha shown a stubborn under
tone. Local shipments were heavy yes
terday at 743,000 bushels.
w York Cotton.
New York, Aug. 24. On the opening ad
vance of 10 to 1$ points on cotton prices
this morning, there was a good deal of
unloading by old longs, which with con
siderable southern wire house selling,
checked the rise and prompted reactions
of about 10 points. Early offerings were
absorbed on reactions to within 1 or 1
points of last night's closing Quotations
and the market showed Increased strength.
Texas estimate the condition of the crop
for that state at 37, and the yield at only
1.500.000 bales. All months made new
higher ground for the month, with Oc
tober selling at J4o and December at
14.38c. and the general list snowing net
advances of 22 to 32 point before noon.
There were reactions ot 13 or is points
from the best during the early afternoon.
under realizinr and there was talk or
Increased southern offering on the basis
of 14c for October. This gave the mar
ket rather a nervous tone, with December
ruling around 14.25c shortly After 3
o'clock, or about points net higher.
New York Coffee.
New York, Aug. 24. The feature In
the market for coffee futures her was
further evening up of September con
tracts, in preparation for possible notices
on Friday. Much of thl was in. the way
of switching from September to late
months, but later opening at a decline
of 9 to 12 points. September aold off to
16.29, or 13 points net lower. There seem
ed to be a better demand at this level
and the price later rallied to 16.39 on
covering. December sold up from 18.76 to
$6.81. but rallies were not fully main
tained, with tho market closing at a net
decline of 1 to 11 point. Sales. Includ
ing exchanges, amounted to about 165,
