SHARP PRACTICE ON CHANGE
A Weather Bulletin Tempered With
and Prices Affected Thereby.

CHICAGO, Sept. 21.-On the Board of
Trade to-day the Secretary announced
that some one had mutilated the Signal
Service weather report. The report was
so changed as to give it different mean
ing from the original. Before the decep-
ton was discovered there was a percent
1ble decline in the price of corn, mum
Der of members losing thereby. The
document stated that the indications
pointed to a frost on Friday or
saturday night in all States
north of Tennessee. A knot of
operators gathered about it when it was
posted on Change, and soon after it was
noticed that interllneatiOns had been made

person, and line inserted on the lower

tary procured duplicate copy of

balcony, after which it was posted again.

CHARCOAL AND ROUND IRON.
FOlger's Tariff Decision Adverse to the
Manufacturers.

WASHINGTON, Sept. 21.-The decision
of Secretary of the Treasury Folger with
regard to the construction Of the ''char-
coal IRON and "round from provisions of
the last tariff act is adverse to the claims
of the manufacturers on both points. The
first question raised was with respect
to the scope of the provisO in the fifth
paragraph of the section of the act re-
lating to metals. The provisO is that all
iron bars, blooms, billets or sizes or
shapes of any kind, in the manufacture of
which charcoal is used as a fuel, shall be
subject to duty of S22 per ton. This pro-
VisO, the manufacturers claimed, applied
not only to IRON enumerated in the fifth
paragraph, but to all other shapes and
classes of iron in the manufacture of
which charcoal is used as a fuel. The
Secretary holds that the proviso
relates only to the iron enumerated
in the fifth paragraph. The second ques-
ton was as to the scope of the provisions
of the eighth paragraph in the metal sec
ton. The Secretary decides that the pro-
visions of the thirty-eighth section shall
govern the rate of duty on rivet, screw,
nail and fence wire rods, although they
come under the general round iron classi-
fication in the eighth paragraph.

lie TRUE POLICY.

The true policy Mr. Roach SAYS is to
build small, effective modern navy, and
beyond this reliance should be placed on a
merchant fleet built by American labor and
capital, protected on the sea as well as on
land, and fairly paid for mail service.
All government taxation on American
shipping should be removed, and we
should rely on free American ships, not
foreign ships. If this policy be speedily
initiated and followed we will soon re-
cover our commerce with South America
and other countries, whose trade natur-
ally belongs to us, and will be able to pro-
tect our interests abroad, and avoid war
by being always well prepared for it
without the expense of a great naval
establishment

The origin of the Postal Card.


But few people know said the Hon.
George y. Halsey, of Newark, the other
day, "h0w the postal card-by which half
OF the business of this country is carried
On-came to be a national institution.
You remember little Fred I.undv. of Nor
ristOwn-the newspaper writer. and at
one time editor and owner of one of the
MOrristOwn papers: During one of his
summer vacations he went up to Mon
treal, Quebec, and other places of interest
in Canada. The penny post was, in the
dominion, a feature of the government
postal service. When he came back he
came to me with Canadian postal card
in his hand.
"sWhat do you think of that" he asked
as he showed il to me. That would be a
grand thing for this country
Il agreed with him. 4 few days later
.John Hill came TO me with the same card.
- know where you got that said to
Hill.
"'Where:' he asked.
From Fred Lundy,' | said. Mr.. Hill
admitted it. He said he was going to
bring it out in this country, He drew, or
nad drawn, a bill Incorporating il in the
Federal postal service. The bill became
, law, and so the postal card was intro
duced here"
