ousIv practised. The advance from 10 pence
on December 81, 1887, 10 II pence on De-
cember 81. 1889, in the London price OF for'
Phillip greasy wool was largely caused by
extraordinary demand for wool and for goods
which resulted from cvaSions of duty here
Restoration of the duties by a proper inter-
probation of the tariff puts the foreign wool
back where it was two years ago, but imports
of goods are not thereby increased.
Lower prices abroad tend to correct them
selves in a natural way. When they 60 too
low to be profitable for producers the produc-
ton diminishes until the supply is reduced to
the demand. While the immediate effect OF
an advance in duties here is often a sharp re-
duction in prices abroad, part of that reduction
is apt to be temporary. The tendency of with
dravals of American demand is indeed to keep
down the foreign price TO or near The cost OF
production, but if the duty is enough to cover
the difference between cost of production there
and here there can be no considerable foreign
competition The market here must presently
come to be controlled by the competition OF
American producers with each other, so that
even at the lowest prices foreign goods are
not cheaper than American by the full amount
of the duty. The American production OF
steel rails has cut off the demand and reduced
the price in Great Britain from over 500 TO
less than S24 per ton, but the American price
has been from - to 81 higher, although the
duty on the foreign rails is 81 I per ton. There
is no reason to doubt that woollen goods will
be cheapened in tho same way by effective
nrotoctiOn.

THE MUNICIPAL BUILDING SITE.

Thanks 10 the earnest and forciblc expression
of public opinion last summer in reference 10
the erection of another huge building in the
CITY Hall Park. that indoicnsibc scheme was
abandoned before it had passed beyond the
initial stage, and the Legislature al its recent
session provided that the narrow park should
not be invaded for any such purpose. The
building will accordingly be placed outside OF
the park, though ii is to be III tho immediate
ncighDorhood of the City Hall. This provision
is of course wise one, since concentration
of the municipal departments within easy
reaching distance OF one another Is III every
way desirable. The commissioners under whose
direction il will be constructed held last week
their first meeting under the new conditions.
The commissioners are the members Of the
Sinking Fund Commission, the Register, the
Surrogate and the County Clerk.
At this meeting County Clerk Reilly, Regis
ter Fitzgerald and Controller Myers were APP
nointcd a committee t. select Il site and ii was
announced that they would begin their inSpec-
ton of sites to-day. The duty of selecting "a
site is hardly less grave than that OF deciding
upon plan for the building and seeing to it
that it is honestly and properly erected. 1t Is
tied since the purchase of lots on which now
and costly buildings stand which would be
! torn down forthwith, would be too expensive.
Whatever site is chosen will cost large sum
of money, but there is no room for doubt that
it will be a fnr wiser investment than 10 invade
the City Hall Park, as was boldly insisted on
By Mayor Grant and his associates until they
learned how stoutly the contamination OF the
lob was 10 he resisted
At the time of the agitation against the pro-
posed encroachmcnt upon the park space two
sites were suggested as available. One OF them

| the ncighborhood of $1,000, 900. The other

CHARMING CONCERTS At BRIGHTON
MR.. sEIDL's SPECIAL PERFORMANCES AT Tim
MUSIC HALL.

MR. sEIDLS SPECIAL PERFORMANCES AT TIN
MUSIC HALL.
Anton Seidl had a delightful programme for ,noss
who attended the concert at The Brighton Beach Musc
and goodszed audience listened with appreciate.
Interest to the selections. The band was in exc.uent
form, and played with more than its usual skill ana
finish This was especially apparent in the Bacchanas
music from "Tannhaeuser' and the prelude to "Parsi
fal." Other pieces on the programme were the over.
from "Lohengrin,' the WahalI music from Das Rhcin
gold,' the march from "Tannhscuser' and the Ride
OF the Nalhyries from Die Walkuere.' Mr. se,dl
conducted all the pieces.
The managers Of the Music Hall are making de.
termined effort TO give the public the best Of music al
moderate prices, and it is surprising that the concerts
are not better attended. Mr.. seidrs afternoon and
evening programmes made up with all his taste and
careful SKILL and in their variety and wide range leave
nothing to be desired. A charming feature is the
special concerts which have been arranged for the
season. Yesterdays matinee was a bright example
and on Friday douby charming programme will b
given. In the afternoon the music will be taken from
LISTS works, and IN the evening the symphonic
concert will be given, with works from Wagner List
Mozart, schumann and BerliOZ.
For next week three special concerts have been
prepared for the lovers Of music On Tuesday there
will be Wagner List night Friday afternoon will be
evening selections from the compositions of beethoven
Benoit, Wagner and List will be played surely M
coming week should be a gala for lovers of music
IN this city and Brooklyn.

The work done by the international Marine
Conference last winter was of an advisory
nature, and can be binding upon no one with
out ratification BY the Governments OF the
various nations which took part in the Con-
ference. The most important of the recon-
mendations made was that in reference to pre-
venting collisions at sea. These recommended
tons were embodied in bill which, having
already received the approval of the Senate,
was passed by the House yesterday. The new
signals etc. which are designed to increase
safety on the ocean, are the product OF the
best Judgment of well-Quailied experts. and it
is satisfaction to know that the work OF the
Conference in this matter has not come to
naught SO far as the United States is concerned

Associated Press Dispatches to the HERAIr,
SAN Francisco. January 26.-A
splendid work has been accomplished to-
day in repairing the railroads leading
out of this city. A train on the Southern
Pacific road reached Los Gatos today.
Two tracks are now open between here
and Sacramento, one via Livermore and
the other via Martinez. Trains on the
Naps branch are expected to be running
tomorrow, as also train via Benicia
to Sacramento The steamer State
of California, from Portland, arrived to.
day, crowded with passengers, but with
no mail. The day here has been bright
and clear. Reports tonight from the
flooded districts in the northern portion
of the State are to the effect that the
waters are rapidly receding. In some
points in the San Joaquin valley the
water is still high, but the damage will
not be great. The Southern Pacific'i
road, however, is washed out in many
places.
