WHIT TIE CoNsuLs SAY.

The reports Of the American ConSuls
are generally very proSy and uninter-
esting documents, but now and then
you find something among them worth
reading. II would not do at all for Con-
sular agents under this administration
To state that the reason that we do not
make any creditable appearance in for
eign markets is because our tariff laws
repel custom and fair trading there.
But Mr.. BLANE's ConsulS have to add
nit the truth so far as it concerns the
countries of this hemisphere. Consul
BURKE OF Bahia, SenSibly remarks:
as It to be supposed that English,
French or German houses established here,
will import goods from the United States
unless they can buy those goods much
cheaper here than they can in their
own country. We must not expect
10 20 into this Brazilian field with talk in
the face Of those who have been tilling II,
harvesting IL, and are now in almost ndls-
putable possession OF II.
Consul LoUGHERY, OF Acapulco, Mex
leo, says: LAS it is, the States OF Eu-
rope are in advance OF US all along the
coast, and are pushing their trade and
social relations with an energy and vigor
that have given them large predomi-
hence i'm commerce and trade" Minis
ter PIrKIN at BuenoS Ayres says that,
according to the Argentine commercial
statistics for ISIS, that republic bought
9s,419.1lO in goods from other coun-
tries. OF this amount England supplied
S44.O44.s5l, France So, 900, $50, Ger
many Sl2, 3lO,O9 and the United States
-, 900. sos, Consul HOSMER says that
in reviewing the statistical record OF
the Guatemalan trade with other parts
OF the commercial world, one is
struck with the vast diSpro-
portion between the amount it
bears to European countries and that of
the United States Our people get
hardly one-Sixth of that trade. The
chief reason of this poor showing in our
trade with our neighborS is plainly be
cause we are outbid by our European
rivals. They are enabled to hold the mar
ket against US solely because of the more
liberal manner in which they treat their
customers. Their vessels can convey
manufactured goods to the South Amer
lean ports at much lower rates than We
can furnish, and they can return home
with cargoes OF raw materials, without
being met at their own ports by pro-
hibitory tariff. Mr.. BLAINE should
deeply consider this interesting queS-
tiCn. lie may be led to alter considera-
bly, the roSeate views Of a home market
ne expressed in his Paris message in the
winter of 1857.

when thirsty customer comes in he buys
a cup. Incidentally to this transaction the
bother fills the cup with liquor, which the
customer drinks The latter then finds that
he does not like its shape or size, and he
returns IL 10 the bother as present. The
bottlers cater largely 10 the ''grOwler'
trade. and sell great quantities Of liquor for
home consumption. they are scarcely less
demoralizing than saloons under practically
no restriction.
The just conclusion seems to be that
the operation of the Philadelphia statute
testifeS strongly TO the wisdom and eff
cacy Of high license law; and the
more so because il is clear that in that
city the principle has been pushed to an
unwise extreme. Previous TO the re-
cent decisions Of the License Court,
says the Times, cutting the number OF
retail drinking places down from l,204
to LIZA, the Mayor, the director Of pub
lie safety, the superintendent Of police,
and many leading citizens expressed
themselves as being strongly in favor Of
the granting Of more licenses in order
that there might be less temptation TO
start speak eaSies" and drinking clubs
which are the cause Of more trouble
than the regularly licensed saloons.
The fact that under the Philadelphia
high license law drunkenness and dis
order have decreased to the extent al
ready stated shows what might be ac-
complished under a similar law, better
guarded, and administered with more
discretion.

rnELIoUoR QUESTION.

Philadelphia'S experience with the
liquor question is interesting and a
study of it will be profitable to the the
orlsts who are at present engaged in
mOnkeying with it.
For nearly two years Philadelphia
has had in operation high license law
of peculiar severity, the results Of which
are noteworthy and in some respects
astonishing. To "a considerable extent
the system is a success. The licensed
saloons are far more orderly than they
were before The proprietorS, know
ing that if just complaint were made
10 the License Court they would lose
their present opportunity Ia golden one)
Of making money, take pains that
uo brawlS or disorder shall
occur on tkeir premises, and
that customers shall not become
drunk there. And this Improvement
seems TO extend throughout the city.
The police reports show that the arrests
for intoxication and diSorderly conduct
last year were less by 4,S26 than they
were the year before, and the number
of serious offenSeS was also smaller than
il had been for long time.
There is nothing in this improve
ment TO excite surprise, when IL is con-
sidered that the number OF saloons in
Philadelphia has decreased from 5,773
in lSS7 to 1913 in lSSS, to /, sO4 in 1889,
To l,l73 in 1890 When the present law
went into effect, in lSSs, there was in
the Sixth ward saloon for every
seven and half voters" and in the
Fifth ward one for every thirteen and
a half voters" In the ward with the
smallest proportion of saloons there
was lone for every forty-four and two
thirds voters and the New York Times
from which these figures are taken, eS-
Inmates that in the city at large there
was one drinking place for every thirty
men entitled to vote.
The high license statute now in force
puts the license fee at 500 and leaves
the number Of licenses 70 be issued en-
tirely nj the discretion OF the License
Court. And here comes in the peculiar
aspect OF the situation. The licensed
saloons are SO few in number (and it IS
the intention OF the court TO reduce
them still further till they amount to
exactly l.OOOl that a vast deal OF liquor
is sold Illegally. 4 great number OF
''clubS" have been organized, oStenSibly
for social and other purposes, but really
TO supply liquor to their members.
Secret LIQUOR shops also, known as
.,Speak-easieS. " abound, the number be-
ing estimated at 1000. and by some per
sons at 1000. There is also loo p-hole
in the law itself. Wholesale dealers in
liquor and bottles are permitted to sell
il i'm quantities Of a quart or more, not
To be drunk on the premises. Accord
ing 10 the Times these men-
get around the provisions Of the law for
bidding the sale Of liquor in less quantity
than quart by selling the quart IN two
pint bottles, and they cannot be stopped IN
this. They sell liquor 10 De drunk on the
premises also. One ingenious dealer has

was packed with a cultured and critical
audience The vocal solo by Miss
Yodcr was especially fine, the clear,
sweet voice of the young songStresS

ONE OF the stock arguments Of the

manufactured goods tend TO decrease in

price is not affected by the tariff. They
