INVESTMENTS INSURANCE.

There is no doubt that a company
which would guarantee investments, and
make it's guarantee good if it had to,
would, like new newspaper, meet long
felt want. Many man bought "Sugar" at
100 or so and saw it go down to 4S, or
Union Pacific at 130 and saw it go down to
%, etc., etc. If they could have had such
investments" guaranteed they would have
been happier. There is some talk nova
days of starting company in New York
that will insure investors against loss. The
experiment has been tried in England with
rather poor success, the stock of the prin-
cipal company now selling at 81 cents on
the dollar. In Germany some success has
been achieved. One company which in
sures mortgages has been doing business
for thirty years, and stands well to-day.
This company handles mortgages in three
ways. 1t sells and delivers them, gusran-
teeing the payment; or it issues a certif-
cate emitting the holder to the proceeds
of the mortgage and retains the papers,
collecting the interest and principal for
a certificate holder; or, in the third
place, and that now the most eI-
tensive, it issues what may be called a
mortgage participation certificate, which
is in effect transfer to an investor of a
part of the mortgage of any size that he
may desire. In this way small sums are
invested in choice mortgage securities and
have this great advantage over investments
in what are known as debentures. The
holder has definite interest in definite
mortgage, which cannot be touched by
any creditor of the company issuing the
certificate, and forms no part of the assets
of the company. The company might fail
and go into receivers b nds without the
security of the part owner of the mortgage
being in any way involved in the failure.
These certificates are sold in large mum.
bers, bearing rate of interest of 81 pei
cent. per annum.
OF course the soundness and usefulness
of a company which insures investments
depend on the kind of investments 1t in
sures, and the way it does Its business
There is wide field for such business
honestly done in this country, and there Il

RECENT PUBLICATIONS.

"The Presumption of Sex" by Oscar
Fay Adams. A collection of articles,
most of which were published in the North
American Review, and all of which have
been subjected to sharp criticism. The
argument of the book is, practically, that
men, by reason of their being men, assert
their presumptive rights to do many things
adverse to the common welfare of the
race, and to be disagreesble and tyranni'
cal; and that women, because they are wo-
men, presume upon their sex in ways that
are certainly not for the common good.
Mr.. Adams has written with an earnest
purpose, hoping that what he has said
may lead to a thoughtful consideration OF
matters which have much to do with the
comforts or annoyances of daily living.

"The Princess Mazaroff: A Romance OF

'By Order of the Gar" A disagreeable
story, well told. The hero is no hero, only
a selfish, weak, inconstant. moral coward

Glove for an Hour is Love Forever" by
Amelia Barr. A story in Mrs. Barr's fin
ished, fastidious style, the principal char
acters of which are as charming as any tc
be met with in modern fiction. Francescs
Atherton and her aunt are types of Eng
lish gentlewomen; Mrs. Atherton, who en-.
ters the story late, offers the contrast OF
an American gentlewoman as sweet, re-
fined and true as they. Mrs. Barr's love

NEW HAVEN DISGRACED.

NEW HAVEN DlSGRACED.
We call the attention of our readers to
the report of the performance of the board
of aldermen last evening in relation to the
ordinance against the pool rooms. 1t is
we'll known that these pool rooms exist.
1t is we'll known that they are doing q
large business. 1t is well known that
"playing the races" has become quite
popular form of amusement in this town.
1t is well known that many young men
have found it 30 fascinating that they have
devoted to 1t all the money they could get
hold of. 1t is well known that some of
the young men have played with money
that did not belong to them. 1t is we'll
known that both young and old men have
played with money which ought to have
gone for the payment of honest debts, or
for other honest uses. And 1t is well
known that the opportunities offered by
the pool rooms for easy and attractive
gambling have been very demoralizing
here, as they have been wherever they have
existed.
With this knowledge, and with a lauda-
BILE desire to do good thing for the city,
the board of councilmen passed the or
dinance. 1t was expected to fail in the
board of aldermen because it was well
known that the managers of one of the
pool rooms had pull" in the board.
This is as we'll known as the fact that the
pool rooms exist, and that they are harm
full. So it ia not surprising that the board
of aldermen has failed to do its plain duty
in this matter. But it is disgrsceful. 1t
wont do to offer any technical plea in ex-
tenuation of the failure. If the board had
wanted to do its part toward abolishing
this serious and growing evil it could have
found way to do it. 1t didn't.
We advise those who have made the fight
against the pool rooms thus far not to give
it up. If there isn't salt enough in New
Haven to save us in this respect let's find
it out. If the Law and Order league has
the right kind of zeal and stamina here is
an opportunity to show it.

TIRED OF FREE TRADE.

An English Newspapers Complaints
How the Mckinley Tariff fs Bene-

From the Bailey CYorkshireO Examiner Sep
tember III
At the present moment, with disaster
after disaster reported in the commercial
world; with such firms as that of the Salts
finding 1t necessary to wind up their huge
business; with the depression in the Brad
ford trade; with the ruin of the tin plate
industry in South Wales, the doom of the
Lancashire cotton trade foretold, and the
complete overthrow of the Nottingham
lace business brought about by the opera
tion of hostile tariffs in foreign countries
with all these signs of the decay of Brit.
ish trade, there is no wonder that the more
thoughtful of English workiDgmen are be.
ginning to ponder the question as TO
whether, after all, free trade is the great
blessing to this country, which from their
infancy they have been led to believe.
Signs are not wanting that the time is
rapidly approaching when instead of the
advocate of protection being put upon bis
defense, it will be the advocate of such
one sided free trade as England st present
enjoys (save the msrkO who will find 1t
necessary to explain his reasons for main
tanning the faith that is in him.

WHEN ENGLAND WAS THE PIONEER.

No other trading community on the face
of the earth pursues the policy which
England has for forty years adhered to.
1t is perfectly true that forty, nay twenty,
years ago England prOspered and was pros
pering; that her trade increased by leaps
and bounds, that wages were higher and
fortunes rapidly made And free traders
took the fiattering JUNCTION to their souls
that all the improvement was due to the
adoption of the Cobienite shibboleth, for
getting that England was the pioneer in
manufacturing, in the creation of rail-
ways, in the adoption of the electric tele-
graph, and that her commercial maritime
fleet gave her advantages which no other
nation on the face of the earth enjoyed.
But by taking advantage of English dis
coveries, employing English foremen, get
ting English machinery to use as patterns
and excluding English goods from their
markets by high tariffs, France, Germany
and America have brought themselves in
line with Us, and while the business of
free trade England today increases but al
a snsirs pace, the foreign trsde of foreign
countries is leaping forward and bidding

wHAT FIXES WAGES.

Whatever may be said to The contrary,
wages are fixed-subjsct, of course, to
reasonable conditions OF barter-by the
inexorable laws of supply and demand.
AS soon as orders for goods fall off com
petition begins TO cut down prices, and
when this has done it's worst, and orders
still become fewer snd fewer. mills are
shut down, men are thrown out of en-
ployment, the competition for work be-
comes keener and keener, and men with
wives and families to support willingly
take situations to keep their families from
starvation at less aud less rate of wages
This is the process now going on in Eng
land.
France, Germany, Spain and America
have all practically closed their markets
against Us; and while thus keeping their
own trade to Themselves, they are compe-
ting with us in eastern and other markets,
and SO not only injuring our trade by their
refusal to accept our goods, but driving
us out of other markets.
1t is time England brought the nations
who are now seeking her ruin to their
senses by the imposition of retalistiye ta-
riffs on their goods.
