CHICAGO, Nov 14-With the approach of
the next meeting of the Worlds Fair Com
mission rumors of trouble ahead are nu-
merous. Director General Davis feels that
he has been sighted by the local directory.
1t was his understanding that he should
have the appointment Of his sub-chefs, but
the directory has already appointed two OF
them without consulting him. The opposi-
ton to the scheme of the local directory to
place three or more fine buildings on the
lake front is growing rapidly. In a meeting
of the Congressional Committee and the Ex-
ecutiye Committee Of the National Com
mission to-day, after an informal discussion
of various matters, Commissioner Martin
dale of Indiana said he believed he voiced
the sentiment of the Commissioners gen.
orally when be said that the restrictions
thrown around the use OF jackson and

missiOners must be withdrawn. At sub
sequent meeting of the National Committee

missiouers asserted that the National Board
would insist that there be no more than two
buildings erected on the lake front. Presi-
dent Palmer said on the subject: Il shall
resign if the plan outlined at the recent
meeting OF the local Directors is insisted
upon.
CHICAGO, Nov. 14.-The American Here

trial and conviction Of the murderer a week

still at large, and acquitted, al
though it is claimed that she was present

Kinley Tariff Law
LONDON, Nov I4.-Sir Lyon Playfair In
a speech at Leeds last night dwelt at great
length on the tariff policy Of the United
States. He cited host Of statistics to show
that the consumer always paid the extra
duty The effects of the tariff will be dis
astrous 10 American agriculture" he de-
clared, ''for Canada will be able to supply
Great Britain with all the food she now gets
from the United States. If Canada would
reconstruct her tariff on revenue principles
Europe and Asia would contribute to her
future commercial prosperity" Referring
to the Meat Inspection Bill of America. he
declared the empowering Of the President to
boycott nations was an act unworthy of
great nation. The boycott had never hith-
ertO been recognized by international
law. He considered the reciprocity clause
in the Mckinley bill a satisfy valve to pre-
vent the high pressure from blowing up pro-
lection. Already there were signs in Ger
many. Italy and elsewhere of flames of dis
tress in the protection camps. Though En-
gland might be injured for a year or two by
the United States tariff legislation, ne hoped
she would not dream of reprSals.
The Times in a long editorial says: Sir
Lyons speech is the most complete exposure
yet published on either side of the Atlantic
of the absurdity of the Mckinley tariff
The opponents of high protective duties, it
says, could hardly do better than to circu-
late his dispaSsiunate argument among the
American electorate before the next contest
for the control of the executive power.

WEALTH'S CURSE

To a Son OF . Wealthy, Prominent Louis
VILE Merchant.
Louis Wolf, son of a wealthy Louisville
merchant, was sent to Jail for twenty days
by Judge Holmes in the Police Court Of
Grand Rapids. Mich, recently. The elder
Wolf at his death left Louis $1,000 which
he busted himself in spending in the most
reckless fashion. He has once been in an
inebriate asylum, and may be returned. He
has been working as porter and janitor In
Engleman's saloon on Canal street. Con-
siderable property, it is said, is still held for
him by trustees in Kentucky.
He went to New York and "blew in"
$4,000 in less than six weeks, and became
such mental wreck that by the aid Of
friends he was placed in an insane asylum
for several weeks. By some chance he
drifted to this city, and the officers say he
has been receiving $50 week. which he
has spent for whisky and its attendant ex-
ceSSeS.
A few days ago gentleman in the city
received word from VOLTS agents in New
York asking him to find Wolf, buy him some
clothes and fix him up. The gentleman did
so, and the officers say that within few
hours Wolf was drunk again and wanted to
put up" his overcoat for 81.
AT the advice of the gentleman ne was ar
rested, and Judge Holmes was recon-
mended to send him to Jail, in the hope that
he will straighten up. After his time eX-
pires in jail here he will probably be sent TO
his home in Louisville. Cincinnati En-

Jay Gould Explains Why There Is a Falling Of
in Their Receipts.


New YORK, Nov. 14.-In the Sun to-mor-
row will appear letter addressed to the ed
itor from Jay Gould. in which the writer says
there are a group of roads, known as the
Western and Southern systems. traversing
the most fertile and rapidly developing ter
ritory in the United States and that the
stock and bonds of these properties are held
by thousands of investors in the East and
upon the prosperity of these roads many
small investors depend tor dividends upon
which TO live.
Something over eighteen months ago."
writes Gould, during a period of great de-
preston, three great banking-houseS invited
the Presidents OF these roads to meet. The
result of that meeting was the formation of
a so-called Presidents agreement and it
may interest you to know the difference in
the net earnings of this group OF roads as
between the rates which were established
and maintained for several months after
that agreement and the rates that prevailed
under the loose and disorganized state of
affairs that has existed since the agreement
was broken.
81 estimate the total number of tons
moved one mile annually by this group to
be 16, GOO, 100000. The Auditor of one of
these roads furnished me with a statement
showing the difference between the rates
under the Presidents agreement and the
present rates, which amounts 10 an increase
of 4-10 mills per ton per mile Applying
this difference of l 40 mills to the 16OOO,-
COG, coo gross annual tons per mile, gives the
startling figures of So. 100000 annual de-
crease in the net earnings of this system of
roads, as between their operation under the
Presidents agreement and the loose
methods now prevailing.
Under this condition of things it is
hoped the bankers can be induced to call
the Presidents together again, with the
assurance that they have the whole mass of
investors behind them

Mrs Alexander Gives Commencement Hall
to Princeton

Mrs. Alexander Glves a Commencement Hall
to Princeton.
PRINCETON On. j., Nov. 14.-At the an
nuaI fall meeting of the Board of Trustees
of Princeton University, held yesterday,
President Patton announced the gift Of a
new building by Mrs. Harriet Crocker-Alex-
ander, daughter Of the late Charles Croker
of San Francisco. The new building will be
used for commencement exercises and all Of
the higher functions of university life. 1t
Will be the finest, most costly and best
equipped building of its kind belonging to
any college in the country. The best archi-
tects will be consulted, and also the best
taste and precedent in buildings of this
style. Several sites have been suggested
but none of them are considered Mt all salts
factory. The matter of location is rather a
puzzle. The college has plenty of ground,
but, as yet no convenient and commanding
site has been found which is available for
building of this character. IL is to be me-
mortal of the Alexander family, fifteen OF
whom have been graduated from Princeton.
President Patton gracefully announced the
gilt TO the Trustees in the following words:
| think we all feel the need of some suit
able building for our commencement
exercises and other academic func-
tions. / have looked forward to the
time when with the growth of the
college and the developments of the uni
ver>ity idea, we might reasonably hope that
some benefactor would build us a Cum
mencement hall, which in its architecture
and adOrnments would be a worthy tribute
to learning The gifts OF women TO Prince
ton have been numerous. notably those of
Mrs. Robert l.. Stuart of New York and
Mrs. David Brown of Princeton. This act
originated solely and spontaneously with
Mrs. Alexander, with no solicitation from
myself, her sband or any one else. Ii is a
graceful tribute to fortune and to fame. l
did not suppose the time and fruiton of our
hopes in this line were so near as the fol-
lowing letter would Indicate:
TUXEDO, Nov. 10.
by dear DR.. Patton-It affords me great
pleasure to oiler TO you and the Board Of Trustees
of Princeton College a hall III which to hold the
commencement exercises and the aSSembages
which may ill the future be held by the univer-
sity. Trusting this Will meet with your approval,

There has been no definite amount named,
but it is known that it is the intention Of
Mrs. Alexander to erect building Il pom the

The Hon Market

NEW YORK, Nov 14.-Hops are reported
in slightly better demand, chiefly for export
account, but the offers made are invariably
low, and little business has resulted. The
absence of any pressure to sell under exist
iug adverse conditions in financial circles is
taken as strong evidence that dealers have
confidence in the situation and growers
have only to follow the policy of city dealers
to keep the values steady until the money
situation changes for the better. With
money easier hops would very probably find
freer movement The foreign hop market
is unchanged. The situation is about the
same as here.
