Is RUSSIA AGAIN ASSISTING uSq


1t may be that the accumulation of
over s35O,O0O,oo0 in gold by Russia
simply indicates that that power i.
preparing for war; but it may also be
that Russia is DESTROYS Of assisting the
avowed hi-m-talIic policy of this
country in the most effective way by
making gold scarcer at the very mo-
ment when the International Mone>
tary Conference is in session.
Russia has shown her great regard
for this country on several occasions.
At the time Of the Trent affair, .
Russian squadron FASTENED to New
York; later on during the war when
France and England seemed to be
preparing for active interference

of the BehrinR Sea dispute few war
vessels "happened" in the Pacific.
In each case it sufficed that the
Colossus of the North should put in an
appearance or indicate that, in case of
need, we would surely be able 70
command her support. The hostile
demonstrations ceased. 1t may be so
in this case. The United States and
Russia, not to mention France and
Belgium, wish bi-metallism to prevail.
Great Britain, Germany aud Austria
oppose US. 1t is therefore not impos.
sible that Russia's action may again
prove Of great benefit to US.

which IL Entalled.

1t was Not Caused by an Effort to Re.
duce Wages-The Unnecessary Losses
which 1t Emtailed.
New York Commercial Advertiser
After five months of turmoil,
tragedy aud scandal to the country
the great strike at Homestead has
come to aa end. The Amalgama.ed
Association, under whose direction it
took place. agreed yesterday to Dc
clare the Carnegie Mills open, and to
permit workmen 70 obtain employ.
ment there without molestatlon.
This is crushing, even . heart.
breaking defeat for organized labor,
but who shall say ii was uumeri,ed?
During the campaign when the be.
neficence Of the tariff was pressed
upon tho public mind answer was
made that wages were not maintained
BY the tariff but BY organization Of
labor. Indeed, it was charged by
some of the very beneiciaries Of the
tariff that this system had caused the
Homestead troubles. Workingmeo
we're advised to put their confidence
in their labor organizations and spurn
tho protective tariff. And to 4 large
extent they did. The Hooestead
strike, proclaimed BY an organization,
encouraged them.
A catalogue Of what has been Of.
fected by this organization within the
past twenty weeks is instructive.
First-It ordered . strike among
$500 men not because the wages of
325 men had been reduced. that was
agreed to-bnt because the employers
insisted on beginning the year on
January instead of July l.
Second - Il brought about .
bloody battle between excited strikers
and the private watchmen hired to
protect the works, together with some
twenty deaths and the shameful
scenes that followed.
Third-It involved the common.
wealth in vast expense to preserve
order.
Foutth--lt has placed scores Of
we'll meaning men ia the prisoners
dock to stand trial for felony.
Fifth-lt has kept $500 men idle
for nearly five months at an aQgre.
gate loss to themselves and their
families Of not less than 100000.
Sixth-lt has inflicted . loss of
about $t,0o0,0oO on the company.
Seventh BY delaying contracts it
has spread loss far and wide.
Eighth-lt has brought widespread
discredit upon lab " organizations.
Ninth-lt has given encourages
ment and new life to the forces Of
anarchy and rebellion with which the
country must soon engage in q life
and death struggle.
Tenth-It has certainly brought
defeat and humiliation upon the party
Of morality and good government, the
champion of the workingman, the adj
vocate of progress, of high wages
and enlightenment. 1t has struck
blow at the protective system under
which every wage Garner will culver
for years before the healing hand can
be applied.
All this has been effected, not by
protection. but by one labor organiza.
ton which had fallen into bad hands
aud was directed without wisdom or
judgment. Persons who still believe
that the exalted status of the Ameri-
can workingman is due to his organs
iza,,on and not to the tariff will do
we'll to study the history ofthe Home
stead strike and its predecessors, re-
membering that this most calamitous
occurrence had nothing to do with
the wages question.

The Author and His Manuscript.

The victim Of this story tells the story him
self, says the Boston Globe He ia a well.known
young writer, and not long ago he completed a
editor of IS Magazine. Carefully wrapping
the manuscript up, he gave it. with a separate
note addressed to the editor, to Of the Office
boys from his own place Of business, with in
structions to deliver it at once
Only day or two had passed before the man
uscript was returned with curt note saying
that Messrs. must ask to be relieved from
receiving any more manuscript from the same
source.
Convinced that something was wrong. the
young man hurried over and asked for one OF
the firm. In reply TO his agitated question as
to why he was ostrAcized thus peremptorily
from the good graces of the firm he was told
That they did not care to receive manuscripts
from him because they did not care to submit
themselves to further insult at his hands.
INSULT echoed the startled young man.
II haven't the slightest idea what you mean?'
Your note was an insult that we do not care
to have repeated" was the answer.
My note?"
Yes, sir. the note accompanying tho manu-
script
The young man sat for minute and thought
hard "Will you let me see the noteg" he finally
asked
Certainly" was the reply. and the note was
brought to him. On a soiled and crumpled
sheet this is what was written:
'Mister-Here is a manus crap. Read f.
II you want It, keep it. II you don't. - you,
send it back" To which was appended the
| name of the sender.
Very properly the office boy who carried the
note was the next person interviewed He
way he had stopped to watch game and lost
| the note. Rather than go back and confess he
| concluded to riss to the occasion and replace
| the note by his own idea Of such a composition.
