Sewers are becoming choked and there is grave danger of an epidemic of disease.

Bankers Are Disposed to Encourage Storing in Anticipation of More Favorable Conditions. Wheat speculation has been daily look- ing for some one to brave the elements in cornering July wheat. Once or twice dur- ing the past week a flutter of expectancy appeared, but the flame was only mo- mentary. July advanced to 80, as com- pared with 71, the low point. At the ad- vance Armour’s brokers supplied the After their wants were supplied the market dropped back into a qulet and uninteresting condition. As the close of July approaches the more nerv- ousness will appear. The very small stocks of contract wheat in Chicago elevators make manipulation very easy. There continues a cash demand. Interfor millers are pay- ing more for new wheat than buyers for While the winter deliveries are a great deal the of 1 les durhlfi {)m!t ten days than the same perio ?7. The low prices now prevailing work to_ retard a free movement to market. Farmers are to a certain extent masters of the situation. Money is easier. Bankers are disposed to encourage the storing of wheat by producers in antici- pation of more favorable conditions later on _for selling. The general conditions over the world a surplus of about 150,000,000 bushels of wheat over requirements upon the present favorable conditions. It would be only reasonable to expect this small surplus to find room in the ex- treme low supplies the world acknow! ed; . _For instance, the visible supply of the United States is less than 10,000,000 b 1els of old and new wheat at the pres- nt time. Never in the history of the trade were stocks o low. The same may be said of all Europe, The great crops now argued as ralsed are far from belng realized. England and America have thirty days vet of trying weather. England’s condltions are grow- ing worse daily. Russia and Roumania are .'u‘knnwledgmf new damage. As re- gards the Argentine nothing can be said of their crop, as seeding is only about tarting. Heavy rains throughout Prus- A and Austria have done material damage, the potato crop suffering most. . The Hungarian estimate has been largely reduced. Many reports of serious ‘damage come from _the Danube. Harvesting will be late in Eng- land, Holland and Belglum. Late re- ports from Odessa say extreme heat has caused considerable damage. Wheat on ocean passage has shown a marked fall- ing off, showing stocks in all wheat ex- porting countries exhausted or nearly so. Considerable complaint has been report- ed from Washington during the past week, especially from the Palouse coun- try. Many predictions are made that the shington crops will be 20 per cent less than estimated figures given hy the Gov- ernment Agricultural Department. The same authority gives the California crops ;,-‘;_g’(xbfl.l)w tons, which Is altogether too In summing the situation up: As condi- tions now appear there s very little rea- son to anticipate any lower prices while values may not appreclate for awhile to any great extent from the fact that buyers will hold off, hoping to secure bargains. When it becomes evident that holders of wheat will not sell, then sup- ply and demand will exert its influence and a higher range will be brought about. There are enough war clouds in the at- mosphere to dispel the idea of extreme low prices this year. The most active market at present is corn. Dry weather, coupled with late planting and a decreased acreage, has started speculation with that cereal which promises to attract a great deal of attention for the next two months. Barley continues dull: speculation of a scalping character. Shippers are good sellers of December on every strong spot. The present holders of December t§mrh:y appear to be waiting to find a hard spot to unload on. The consumption of feed barley has materially decreased of late. Offerings will soon increase, when prices will seek a lower level. R. E. MULCAHY. —_——— WERE REFUSED BONDS. Applications Sent in From the Ex- aminer Office Were Rejected as Fraudulent. A number of money orders sent as ap- plications for bonds on the popular war loan were returned to Treasurer O'Con- nor at the Postoffice yesterday. A nota- ble feature was that all had been sub- scribed for at the Examiner office. The reason assigned for their return ie that they bore evidence on the face of having been subscribed for by a syn- dicate or by some one person who desir- ed to secure a larger quantity than was permissible, and employed others to pur- chase them in their own names with the intention of making the transfer later on. This was traced out by the money orders. In one case five separate appll- catlons for $20 bonds were recelved and a single money order for $100 accompan- fed tfiem. Had there been five orders, each for $20, there could have been no protest. Frauds of this nature have been prac- | Mr. Hanscom states | strong | ticed time again on the Government, more particularly in the matter of land grants, and the department, not wishing td take any chances of the loan being anything but a popular one, promptly re- turned all suspicious-looking applications.

Subscriptions and donations are belng steadily received Into the little organi- zation of Patriotic Home Helpers, but not in proportion to the demands made on the treasury in aid of the destitute familles of the soldlers. The list of names solicit- ing aid is becoming larger as the war pro- gresses, until the demand almost exceeds the avallable supply donated to the so- clety by the charitable public. Among those who received recent aid from the society is Mrs. George Albertine and her two children, who were_found in an utterly destitute condition at 546 Minna street. The society relieved her imme- diate wants, and are tr_\'in§ to secure work for her, that she may be placed in a position where she will be able to sup- ort herself and two children. Her hus- and was one of the first to join the Cali- fornia Regiment, now stationed before Manila. In order to afford the general public ample opportunity to assist in the work of the Home Helpers, miniature banks are being placed in the principal business houses of the city, where money can be deposited for the purpose. n the list of recent donors are the fol- lowing names: Mrs. W.

John Farrell and Emmet Callahan were arrested yesterday by Policeman Ross and booked at the City Prison on a charge of “drunk,” but a more serious charge may be made against them. They had with them a typewritten doc- ument purporting to be a list of officers of “The Young Men's Republican Club, Thirtieth District, at Oak Grove Hall, 921 Harrison street, organized July 2L. Storekeepers in the Palace Hotel bulld- ing complained to Ross that the two men were annoying them by asking subscrip- tions for the club, and in language that was far from concillatory. Ross went after them and arrested them. They were both under the influence of liquor. Three names were on the document as having subscribed $5 each, viz: Tom Jor- dan, Colonel Jones and Thomas Flint Jr. ——— Divorce Suits Filed. Nels P.

The Democratic managers then began manipulation in many places to control the party conventfon, and notoriously in the Democratic machine was in evidence, at the county convention, and where an at- tempt to vote another man's name in the convention was openly made and detected. In the midst of such methods, and long after midnight, were elected there by a single vote over their opponents, and twenty-six of the San Francisco delegntion, containing at least two persons holding office under Democratic appointments, sat in the State convention and voted against the unanimous instruc- tlon specifically given by the convention which elected them ‘‘to vote.for a complete stralght Populist ticket, and against any proposal to leave any places vacan Not one of these delegates would have been selected If they had announced they Upon the roll call for Governor the vote for Maguire, Democrat, stood 164, and for Shanahan, stra twenty-six votes from San Francisco, so voting against their instructions, voted for the Democrat, whereas ten of these votes, If cast for a straight Populist, would have In addition to the above offense other office-holders sat in the convention, candidates already nominated upon fusion tickets in their counties, and many who are looking for fusion nominations in their countles.

GEO. W. KNEASS. | SLEDS, BOATS, ETC. ! | He was a toreman of the street cleaning de- partment in New York City and, when speaking of Ripans Tabules, said: “I used to have lots of trouble with my heart, caused, my doctor said, from an imperfect digestion. Amongst other remedies I used Ripans Tabules, and they are the finest thing I ever tried. They ‘knocked out’ the indigestion, and relieved the trouble in my heart, whatever it was. Since I began to use them, my bowels are regular, and I feel ten per cent better, I can’t recommend them too highly.
