The Road to Success Is Assured By Simply ObeyinG
 Fixed Natural Laws,

Prof Crosby could teach these laws in the public schools by simply watching the course pursued by the WATERBURY FurNrruRE Go. Early in life we learned to respect the judg
 ment ot the public. No man can afford to wrong the people if he means to build up per manent business. The world is full of glorious results from a generous policy. Some ot the people impose upon us; All of the People NEVER. The carpenters and masons are push ing things as fast as they can on our Grand street building. TheFpublic are taking advan- tage of this opportunity and our immense stock is being ;,re- duced at a rapid rate. We never had so much goods to se- lect from. All are welcome.

iEe German Empires Private Banking
system Shaken-Securities Take a Big
stump as They Say in the street
Grave Situation.
BERLIN, Nov. l0.-There is no disguis-
ing the fact that a financial panic of
considerable gravity prevails here, as a
result OF the recent startling financial
disclosures, failures and the suicides
attending them. Some people are of
the opinion that the worst of the finan.
cial storm is over, and that when mat
ters quiet down there will be q bene-
hcial reaction. In any case, the mar.
ket is disorganized, and securities,
generally, have taken a slump" tc
use the street term. The influence
of this decline Of prices is
already felt in London and in Paris,
and it would not be going too far tc
say that the Berlin troubles have dis.
organized every market in Europe.
Additional revelations in regard to the
collapses of Hirschfeld & Wolff, the
fall of Herr Leipziger, and the sui
cides of the Sommerfelds, are made al
most hourly. Sigmund Sommerfeld
has died from the wounds which
he inflicted upon himself Saturday
last, and the same time that his
son Felix took his own life. The
Sommerfelds, as already stated, in addi.
ton to shooting themselves, opened
veins in their arms, and when found
were literally bathcd in blood. Sieg-
mund lived forty-eight hours with
bullet in his brain; but FeliX-who, by
the way, was a well-known epicure
and the author of number of attrac-
tive articles on cookery, which ap-
peared in the Boersen Courier-died
soon after he and his father were found.
Among the losses by the financial
crOokedness of the Sommerfelds are
those of Dowager Princess Mainline
of Sicdwarburg-R Rudolstadt Prince
Blucher De Wahlstadt, Prince Putbus
and Counts Satisfy, Hamfresch, Nes-
selrode, Nordeck, and many other mem
bcrs of aristocratic families. Among
the noble depositors who were lucky
enough not to get bitten" was Count
Gribenow, who withdrew the sum of
5000, 900 from the Sommerfelds' bank
early on Saturday morning last.
Berlin, from one end to the other,
and Germany, from frontier to frontier,
are talking of nothing else but the
financial earthquakes which have
shaken the entire fabric of the private
banking system of the empire No

A number of banks here are besieged

A VITAL DISTINCTION.
Republican Free Trade as Compared with
That of the Democrats.

Republican Free Trade as Compared with
That OF the Democrats.
Sensible republicans will not grudge
the democrats all the political capital
which the latter are able to make out
of their taunt that Mr.. Blaine is free
trader Such scoffs as this have been
directed against individual republicans
many times, but they have not and can
not blot out the broad and vital dis
tinction between the republicans who
favor the lowering or removal of tariff
barriers and the democratic party.
Gen. Garfield, who was one of the most
pronounced and robust protectionists
of his day, received this designation
IrUru poIiJIcdI IOeS. ABOUT twenty
years ago the republicans were called
free traders in derision by the democ-
racy for removing tea and coffee from
the dutiabIe list. In certain sense. of
course. the term is correctly applied
Mr.. Blaine is a free trader because
he is in favor of removing or re-
ducing the duties on designated
commodities from other nations of
the hemisphere in return for equal
concessions by those countries to
us The Mckinley law is, in a degree,
free trade measure, because it has
made a larger addition, in value, to the
| free list than any other scheme ever en-
acted in this country, and Maj. McKin-
| lev. ex-Speaker Reed and the rest of
the republicans of the Fifty-first con-
gress and President Harrison are free
| traders The entire republican party,
| to this degree, is free trade organiza-
/ tion.
The difference however, between The
| free trade which the democrats pro
pose and that which The republicans
have from time to time brought about
| is deep and essential. The democrats
would reduce the duties on many of our
most important manufactures to the
| revenue point, which is virtually free
trade, and which is classed as free
trade in the discussions of this ques-
ton. The republicans would retain an
adequate duty on these commodities,
trusting to home competition to keep
prices down to reasonable figures, a
confidence which has thus far been JUS
| titled by the facts. On all articles
which we use in large quantities, but
! which we cannot produce at all or can
not produce to an extent approaching
and keeping pace with our needs, the
republicans would remove the duties.
Sugar, tea and coffee belong to this
class of articles. They cannot be
grown in our climate or cannot, except
to an insignificant extent, compared
with our requirements. These the re-
publicans put on the free list, but on
these the democrats would impose q
high duty There are two varieties oi
free trade that is TO say. Harrison,
Blaine, Mckinley. and the republican,
party in general want one of these
kinds and are establishing it, while
Cleveland, Mills Carlisle and the de
mocracy as a whole seek the other sort
Undoubtedly the majority Of the peo
pie of the country favor the repu blicar
brand of free trade and will reject the
. democratic variety.-St Louis Globe
/ Democrat.
