TERMS OF THE DISPATCH.
MERELY A STOCK FURRY.

That the agitation in the stock markets
preciritated so violently by the selling
movement of Monday has not yet wholly
subsided is not to be wondered at. But
there is confidence everywhere that the
effects of the furry will be confined to purely
speculative circles. The industries of the
country and the general mercantile business
are in n0wise involved.
The truth is that one of the reasons of the
Wall street slump is because the bulk of the
spare money of the public has for long
while been signally employed in the lines of
commercial and manufacturing enterprises.
Every one with funds to spare, and good
judgment to back them, has been able to
tiEd opportunities for safe and profitable in
yestment without going into partnership
with the Goulds, the Villards, the Wander
bilts or the Trust magnates in the manage
ment and manipulation of the big schemes
which are hoated in the speculative waters
Of the East
1t is, doubtless, in no small measure be-
cause of the absence of the outside public as
buyers Of the various shares listed at New
York that the slump has now come. But
this only furnishes renewed assurance that
the effects of the furry will not be wide
spread, protracted or serious, except within
the limited circle of stock operations

POOR FARMS PAST AND FUTURE.

The Poor Farm question is finally settled
by the ruling of the Supreme Court affirming
the decision Of the lower court The city can
therefore accept the large sum coming to it
from the sale of the old iarm, but will have
10 look over the county for a new tract of
land on which to locate lis buildings.
The general verdict will be that this is the
most satisfactory settlement OF the question.
However individual opinions may differ, the
average judgment will be that the price Of
the old property is a very good one-as
Chief Elliot puts it, 1882, 900 for tract
which cost but $40, 600 to the city. On the
other hand, beyond the doubtful question
whether the price to be paid for the new
property was not decidedly large one. the
location of such an establishment outside
of the county was a feature of the most
questionable character. There is very little
doubt that plenty of agricultural land can
be found within the county which will serve
the purposes of Poor Farm just as well,
and can be bought for considerably less
money.
In addition to that point the entire sub
ject is still open whether there is any need
for the Department of Charities to go into
farming business on a scale that requires
several hundred acres of land. Enough
land to provide plenty OF room for the build
ings is undoubtedly necessary, and gardens
with a few fields will not be amiss. But
when a large farm requiring an investment
OF three to i've hundred dollars per acre is
operated by pauper labor, it remains a
matter to be demonstrated by the figures
whether all the supplies raised on that plan
will not cost the city more than they would
if bought on Liberty street.
1t is worth discussion whether fifty or a
hundred acres o! land will not furnish
all that is necessary to accommodate
credltable buildings, with the hospital for
insane paupers completely separated and
under distinct management from the aims
house. That would leave large fund to be
used in the erection of the best class of
buildings.

THE BASEBALL SITUATION.

The consolidation of the Players and Ma
tional League Baseball clubs in this city,
which is nearly if not quite accomplished, is
the best thing that could happen for every
body concerned. 1t is a melancholy fact
that the attitude of the public of
late toward baseball has been
that of a coroner viewing corpse.
But the inquest may be suspended if
baseball revives. and the only way for it to
revive is to end the ridiculous yet deadly
fight between the leagues. There is nothing
sentimental about the game of baseball as it
is played by professionals. The players are
out for the money, the capitalists who fur
nish the clubs with backing are looking for
dividends, and the public pay for
the privilege of seeing the game,
asking only in return that the
players shall be competent As The
DISPATCH has consistently maintained
whenever it has commented upon the strug-
gle between the leagues, the game of base
ball has been lost sight of in the scramble
for dollars. Ii the fight continues the only
difference will be that there will be very
few dollars to fight for. By the consolida-
tion of the two clubs in Pittsburg and other
cities baseball may be made profitable, not
only to the capitalists but to the players,
and to such people as think it is profitable
to witness game of baseball between pro-
fessionals.

CHIcAGos MUSICAL AMBITION.

The arrangements to locate Theodore
Thomas and the musical cult which he
typifes as permanent feature of Chicago
formed a bit of news that was in danger of
being showed under in company with many
other things by the political avalanche.
The fact is rescued from the ruins however,
that fifty of Chicago's leading citizens have
subscribed S, 900 each as an annual guar
antee fund to keep up the steam of Wagne-
rian renditions in Chicago, and that Mr..
Thomas has closed with the offer so promptly
as to confirm the idea previously enter
tanned that the eminent musician is able to
recognize a good thing when it confronts
him.
The arrangement is one which justifes
Sir Joseph Porter's treatment, and we con-
gratulate both Mr.. Thomas and Chicago.
No doubt that eminent musicians leader
ship can be made TO contribute to the
attractions of the Worlds Fair, if due care
is taken to avoid certain stumbling blocks.
In a spirit of friendliness, therefore, it
is wise to warn Mr.. Thomas that
Chicago subscriptions are not to be
too implicitly relied upon. 1t is hardly
a year since Chicago announced to the
world that she had an IS, 600. 900 guarantee
fund to the Worlds Fair subscribed; and
vet the last issue of the Tribune received
prior to this writing contains an editorial
asserting that an expenditure of Sc, 600, 900
in filling up its precious Lake Front and
putting up buildings will land Chicago in
the throes of financial embarrassment In
order that the spirit OF Art may not be
dragged down by struggling with the indis-
position of Mammon to give up its dross, it
is enough to hint to Mr.. Thomas the advisa-
bility of having the guarantee fund take
the form of certified checks
Another point to be insisted upon is that
the innovating Chicago spirit shall not be
allowed to indicate the direction which
musical effort shall take. 1t is easy to see
where the original and enterprising Chicago
mind would lead the labors Of Mr.. Thomas
if it were permitted. The practice of de-
scriptive music having received classical
sanction, it is obvious that the Chicago am
bition if unrestrained would require Mr..
Thomas as soon as he had been able to
master his subject to celebrate the stockyards
with Wagnerian symphony descriptive of

\ NEW SPECULATION.

One of the exhibitions of the tendencies of
the day toward turning business operations
into methods Of speculation is furnished by
The report that i Dumber of brokers in New
York have under consideration a scheme for
establishing an exchange to facilitate spec
uiatioa in raw sugars. The set is the same
which has for 4 few years maintained an ex-
change for gambling on the price of coffee,
where two or three corners in that commodity
have been so successful in bedeviling the le-
climate trade and disgusting the public that
there is no longer much to be done in that
line.
The circumstances Of the sugar trade re-
veal the fact that the proposed institution
would be a place for pure business gam
bling. If there were one or two hundred
purchasers of raw sugar, an exchange where
they could meet importers and buy their
supplies would serve a legitimate purpose.
This is the proper function of stock, cotton
and grain exchanges, however those institu-
tions may be perverted by speculation on a
lifierent basis, and was until the petroleum
lining business was monopolized, the rea-
L
hauges. But the fact that at the most
there will not be more than half a dozen
purchasers of raw sugar for actual use shows
that not only whoever operates on the pro-
posed exchange will DO so for the exclusive
purpose of betting on the fluctuations of the
market, but that the unwary outsider will
be extremely liable TO be feeced by the ma
nipulations of the one or two great powers
in that trade.
This feature brings out another point of
importance. 1t is not likely that such a
proposition arises from any demand from the
public for any increase of speculative faclli-
ties, but from the desire of certain parties to
create new sort of speculation in order that
they may share the profits of manipulating
It. The average man is very well aware
that he wants to chance his money he has
abundant opportunities to do so by opera
tions either in trust stocks, grain or railway
shares. The public understanding Of these
speculative institutions is becoming SO gen.
eral that the recent project of establishing

pork packing. Mr.. Thomas would be re-
quired to make his allegro reproduce the
rumble of the railroad trains, bringing the
live animals OF the West to contribute to
the magnitude of Chicago's business; the
andante must describe the growing OF cotton
in order that cottonseed oil may initiate the
total of Chica COS porcine product. A scherzo
would be typical of that fabulous celebrity with
which hog goes in at one end of a pork
packing establishment emitting his last
squeals, and comes out in a few minutes at
the other end in the shape of hams, bacon
and lard; while the grand finale would rep
resent the great tragedy of universal slaugh-
ter of animal life working out gradually into
the purposes of food for the sustenance of
other life, and the swelling of Chicago bank
accounts.
These would be new musical ideas, in
spired by the unconventionality of the
broad and untamed West; but we must ad-
wise Mr.. Thomas to place halter on them
early in the day. There is no telling where
they may lead to, and if start should once
be made Mr.. Thomas might find himself in
of composing rondo gavotte on the attrae-
tions Of bulling July wheat, triumphal
march over the victory of the Lake Front
or a fugue descriptive of the attractions of
the Hennepin Canal. If he should object
to the difficulty of these themes there is the
still greater danger that his artistic soul
would be wounded by the suggestion that,
with slight adaptations, almost any OF the
existing Wagnerian compositions could be
made to fit one or the other of these SUBJ
iects.
The purpose of pointing out these diff
culties and dangers is that the musical
career of Mr.. Thomas in Chicago may avoid
the strained relations with which it was
surrounded in Cincinnati. If the Chicago
guarantees are brought up to the standard
of realism, and the Chicago exuberance OF
originality is kept out OF the domain of
music, there is little doubt that Mr.. Thomas
sojourn in that city will be abundantly en-
riched by harmony.

speculative business in pig iron warrants,
from which Plttsburg wisely kept clear, has
hardly been heard from since it went into
operation. The motive Of schemes to get up
new methods Of fleeing lambs is based on
the idea that while the public is capable of
learning BY experience that it Is bled by the
manipulations of a given staple, it is not
able to perceive that the same methods trans
ferred to another staple will produce the
same result
This belief may be justified by the facility
with which the public after it found railway
stocks Improbable, turned to grain and
petroleum speculation, ard after making the
same discovery there bit eagerly at the bait
OF trust certificates. But it is not likely that
the new speculative market will reach a
great success before its character is fully un-
derstood
