CITY OF MEXICO, July 22.-The new
term of office of President Diaz, which
begins in December, will, in all proba-
biity, be characterized by important
fiscal reforms, including economics in
administration, cutting off all expenses
which are not absolutely necessary and
lowering customs duties, especially on
raw material and generally with a view
to encouraging the importation of goods
in universal demand. The policy of the
financial department hitherto has been
TO increase the tariff, this being consid-
cred the easiest way to secure funds for
meeting the growing expenses of the
government, but the new view hi
gradually come to be taken, which is
that lowering duties will increase trade
and consequently add to the revenues
by increasing the popular consumption.

Assuming Alarming Proportions.

PITTsBURG, July 22.-The sympathetic
strike movement among the workmen In
the employ of the Carnegie company
is assuming rather alarming proportions,
and if rumors now current prove cor
rect the strike will be one of the most
aggressive in the history of strikes III the
world.
Reports come from the coke regions
that missionaries have been sent among
these men and are making efforts to
induce them to come out in body.
This, if successful will shut off the
supply of coke from the blast furnaces
and would compel a suspension. What
progress has been made Is not known,
but the leaders say the movement Is
meeting with great encouragement.
A leading man among the Councils
vile coke workers, who was in Pitts
burg Thursday, said that the sympathies
of the men in that region We're with the
/ Homestead trikers, and that this sym
pathy was very crystalized into more
/ material form.
When this was stated to Secretary
! Loveioy, he said; This is the first in
! timation | have had that such move
was contemplated, and If made OF
course it would be serious matter"

Not Going to Omit Work.

McKEEspoRT, Pa, July 22.-The fol
lowing letter was received for publica-

MCKEEsPoRT, Pa, July 81.
TO the Editor Daily News:
The Pittsburg Times of the Goth inst
published an untruthful article, saying
the workmen in the National rolling mills
of McKecsport were contemplating quit
ting work out of sympathy for the work
men of the Carnegie company.
Much as we sympathize with the locked
out men of Homestead, there being nc
grievance of any kind in any of the mills
connected with this company, we can not
afford, nor either have we any disire to
quit work, having no cause to do so.
Our sympathy will be extended in q
financial manner.

What IL Costs to Smoke.

DR.. F. B. Nofsinger, Kansas City's
postmaster, does not smoke very much,
but he has nevertheless sent number Of
greenbacks up in clouds during the past
30 years. The doctor is comfortable
sort of man and likes to enjoy the good
things going. He does not smoke more
than five cigars day-he thinks more
might be injurious to his health. This
makes total of $50 per month, or $500
in year, which number multiplied by
so, the number of years the doctor has
been given to the weed, gives a grand
total of "a, 900. These cigars retail at 10
cents apiece, but DR.. Nofsinger buys
them by the hundred and in that way
The expense is but cents to the unit
At cents apiece the $4,000 cigars
smoked in 80 years would cost $3.50.
Had these been purchased at 10 cents
apiece the expense would have been
$500. And in consideration of the fact
that the postmaster is a pretty good kind
oil fellow, he must have given away
about 81 600 worth. Rather snug sum
of money, the moderate smokers cigar
