Prof. Cramer of North Carolina write,

know that 1t will interest you to learn
that Aluminium is now quoted at 80 cents per
To-, having been reduced from 80 cents last
week. A month ago it was ST. 80, and three
months ago $500. The present cost of pro.
duction varies from 1S3 to 22A cents per Id
according to process used, and | think you
Will see IT quoted at % or 80 cents yet"
Aluminium Is so much lighter than iror
that at 80 cents it would be as cheap as steel
and the mechanic arts would be revolution
lied. Cars could be built so much lighter
that more freight could be carried and rate.
reduced. Ships could be built of it and the
same saving made in freights. 1t will, per.
haps. make aerial navigation possible.
United with other metals 1t doubles their
value and strength. The supply is unlimIt
ed, and the cost Of transmutingit into meta
Is the only problem which delays this great
advance.

The Boston Herald finds it difficult to un.
derstand the feeling that has prompted the
father of the murdered Christie Warden to
seek frequent conversations with her MUIR
derer since his arrest Doubtless the feel
ing was one of morbid curiosity, and it af.
flicts not only Mr.. Warden, but judging
from the crowds that have gathered wher.
ever Almy has stopped, large part of the
population of New Hampshire. Why people
should want to see murderer. why they
should want to talk with him, why they are
interested In his antecedents, and why they
read column after column dew ted to his life
1t Is difficult to explain, but the fact remains
that they do all these things. Mr.. Warden's
curiosity is no more inexplicable than that
of thousands Of others, though If he had
managed to restrain it somewhat be would
have stood better In the estimation of his
New Hampshire neighbors.

OF less account to the historian Of the future
than accurate details of the conspicuous ser
vices of the regiments. The biographies OF
the officers will also be of permanent inter-
est. Some of the old veterans are too
modest, some find 1t difficult to put their
recollections in written form, and some do
not have the faculty of recollecting quite
straight; but all these difficulties may be
overcome by proper effort on the part of the
organizations. Every Maine regiment
should have good history, and should pre-.
serve all the historical data possible Some
OF them are doing this, but others, and very
gallant ones, seem to be neglecting It,

1t appears now that the building In Park
Place, New York city, which fell last Satur-
day with such terrible results was reported
unsafe year ago and the owner was or
dered to repair 1t, but refused to do SO. If
this is the case and his negligence was the
cause of the accident 1t would seem as if he
ought to be amenable to punishment. Sure
ly II the orders of the inspectors can be dis
regarded With impunity there is no sense In
providing for an inspection at all.

ALBERT III. WAITE,

The choice of delegates to the Massachu-
sets Republican convention is bringing
some surprises. In Melrose, the home of
Speaker Barrett, the delegates are all for
Allen, though Mr. Barrett had warmly es-
poused the cause of Mr.. Grape. Further
more, 1t is alleged that one of the reasons of
the success of the Allen ticket was the oppo-
sitlon of Mr.. Barrett. There appears to be
feeling that he has been flying too high,
and disposition to clip his wings.

The statesman hated above all others In
toe Greenhack era was Senator Sherm u,
the Secretary of the Treasury, because he
stood firmly for honest money. And Senator
sherman is the man specially hated by the
Peoples Party. and the reason is the same
1t is only the truth to say that that party
does not overestimate the strength of the
obstacle which the power of the Senator in
terposes to the accomplishment of their
programme, and makes no mistake In making
him the special target of their attacks.

the only way In which the ministry can pre-,

The selection of Secretary Proctor as the
successor of Senator Edmunds is probably
as good one as could be made. OF course
nobody can quite fill Mr.. Edmunds's place

REoRGAN1zING THE LEAD TRUST.
One stockhoIder Brings Suit to Prevent the
Proposed Change.

NEW YORK, Oct. ga motion was
made in the Supreme Court here to-day to
prevent reorganization of the National
Lead Trust in New Jersey. The proceed
ings were brought by Thomas H. Uncles,
who owns $4,000 worth of stock. His
counsel claimed that the trust was formed
in October, 1887, with a capitalization of
$50, AS, 900 and was to continue 81 years.
The profits last year amounted to s., 600, 900,
while the assets only amount to S25, 900, 900.
At a meeting last August of the stock
holders it was decided to transfer the assets
to the new corporation to be formed in New
Jersey with a capitalization of $50, 600, 900.
The President and trustees were to form a
Board of Reorganization. The certificate
holders in the old company were to receive
shares in the new and $50, 600, 900 debenture
bonds were to be issued. Mr.. Uncles'
counsel argued that this action had depre-
ciated the value of the certificates Rep
resentatives of the trust stated that it was
intended to organize a corporation from the
trust in order to conform to the law. Judge
Ingraham said that he would consider the
application for an injunction, which asked
that the defendants be prevented from trans
ferring its assets out of the State, but init
mated that under such an agreement the
plaintiff could not prevent the trust from
being organized
