Meteors and Volcanic Outbursts.

We have actually no possible way
of explaining the terrestrial origin of
any meteors but in volcanic outbursts.
Moreover, we are obliged to set the
time when such outbursts took place
very far back in the past, seeing that
at present the volcanic force of the
earth, even as manifested at Krako-
toa recently, possess nothing like the

Mayor Courtenay reports the
amount of the relief fund at this

that with the large measure of relief

divided among the sufferers.

deliberately suggested that no taxes

truth has its proper influence upon
prices. When gamblers control it by
sheer force or by fraud, it quickly
gets into false condition, equally
dangerous for the country and for the
dealers. A gradual advance in the
price of wheat would soon determine
how far enhancement of value is prac-
ticable without arresting the sale OF
the American surplus. To that point,
wherever it may be found, any adj
vance may be welcomed as beneficial
to the country.

Whatever may be the cause,

upon the subject from one of the
principal commercial journals of New
York. will be read with interest:
The price of wheat has been adj
vanced. and this time, whether the
advance has been caused or helped bv
speculative devices, not without rea-
son. There has been a decided inn
proyement in the foreign demand,
enough to indicate that the foreign
buyers may consent to take their sup
plies from this country at somewhat
higher range of price. No reasonable

which for some years past has made
their performance exceedingly hurt
full to the country, is that they have
put up prices without regard to the
foreign demand. and at times in de-
llberate and conscious defiance of
natural conditions, Dragging that
they would control and coerce the
markets of the whole world. Their
failure in that undertaking has
brought merited loss on them. but it
has also inflicted heavy loss upon
millions of people who had no part
In their gambling operations. An
advance which is prompted and with
in reasonable limits governed by the
state of foreign markets is a different
matter, and so long as it retains that
character may be beneficial to pro.
ducers and to legitimate dealers of
this country.
1t will be seen that the radical dis
between the methods of the |
gambler and the methods of the bus
mess man govern here. The gambler
tries to bluff or to coerce foreign pur-
the business man asks the
best price for the salabIe surplus
which he judges the actual conditions
Of supply and demand will warrant.
The gambler, if resisted, tries to
make his point by lying information,
pretending that the country has no
surplus for sale, and seeking to cheat
people by fables about foreign crops
supplies. The legitimate dealer re.
sorts to no fraud. He frankly rocog-
1izes the fact that the United States

honestly strives to get at the truth,

lines and is the largest consumer of soft coal in
the country It is now experimenting with
natural gas as fuel for its engines, and pro-
poses. if the plan should prove to be feasible. to
use gas on all the engines running into Pitts
burg The Commercial Gazette says the Phila

pipe into the Plttsburg yard of the

big reservoir is to be put up to supply the tanks

items of expense in running railroad, an engine
consuming nearly bushel of coal per mile. If
natural gas can be made available for this pur-

be able to run It's locomotives on the Pittsburg
