Found by n Canine Detective.
~ ITSCLV IY|

fOunu by n detective
The parents of little Charley Holmes
missed the boy about 5 o'clock one
evening, but through the remarkable
intelligence of a dog the four-year-old
was returned to their arms little after
midnight.
The distracted parents reported the
case to Thomas ii. Buttwell, special
policeman, about 8 o'clock, and he
made a close search of all the alleys and
byways from Washington to Market
streets, but nothing was seen of the
little runaway
Finally he left matters to his dog
Clip, an animal that has a record,both
as a detective and life saver. The
dog, after being shown some clothes
worn by the boy, bounded away in the
darkness. Soon sharp, joyous bark
from the canine announced a discov
cry, and Buttwell hurried in the direc-
ton, where he found Clip with his
head between the wall of a building
and a big dry goods box on the side
walk, wagging his tail vigorously.
The policeman turned the light from
his bullseye on the spot and found
the lost boy sound asleep, He had
wandered about for several hours, and,
tired and hungry, cried himself to
sleep.-San Francisco Examiner

HOTEL OPENING.
The Doors of the New Mcclellan
Thrown Open to the Public,

The new hotel, which opened yes
terday, is very appropriately called
the New Mcclellan, for it is absolutely
new. New proprietors, new furniture,
new paper, new kitchen, new cooks.
All there is of the old hotel is the To-.
cation aud walls and doors. The
building has been remodeled, repaint.
ed, refurnished and in a style that
will make it in all respects a really
first class hotel, so far as furnishing
is concerned. The new proprietors,
w. 7. Boyle & Son, are genuine hotel
men with ripe experience in other
cities. They are also whole souled,
genial gentlemen, intent on making
their guests happy at any cost. The
parlors aud bedrooms are elegantly
furnished in bright and cheerful colors,
and with everything new and bright
the interior of the hotel is wholly con.
ducive to comfort. But the New
Mcclellan is going to be irst-class in
its cuisine. The table has always
been the winning card with Boyle &
Son, and the table menu of the new
hotel will not be surpassed by any
hotel in the state. The first dinner
yesterday, which was partaken of by
about fifty guests, is highly spoken of.
Two of the finest cooks in the west
cater to the palate.
There is room in Waco for new
6rst-class hotel, and the New Nc
Clellan will, we are sure, fill the bill.
The city welcomes Boyle & Son and
the state at large will give the new
hotel big patronage.

THE S. A. P. STRIKE.
Everything Quiet and no Prospect
of Resumption of Traffic.

The strike on the San Antonio and
Arkansas Pass is unchanged today.
Two trains went out from San Anto.
MO yesterday, one to Kerrville and
one to Corpus Christi. What became
of them is not known yet. The &C
ton of the mob at Argenta, Ark,
was very encouraging to the strikers
for they saw in this a sign of univer.
sal sympathy.
Major Herbert always ready for a
joke was accosted this morning by a
man who wanted to know when the
next Arkansas train would start cut.
Major Herbert said he did know but
there was man with a telescope
at the corner of Fourth and Austin,
who was trying to get focus on the
first moving train, and could probably
give him the information. This
brought down the street, and Superin.
tendent F. E. Rogers, who was stand
ing near, laughed and passed on.
The telegram received yesterday
afternoon, to the effect that the re-
ceivers were holding confer
ence at Yoakum with the commit
tee representing the strikers, was
probably false, as it could not be
traced to a responsible source.
Four of the alleged scats, who be
longed to the car load stampeded at
Argenta, arrived at Tay lor last night,
and learning the situation there, took
the Missouri, Kansas and Texas north
bound passenger and came up to
Waco. They have no notion of tax
ing the places made vacant by the
strikers.

believe that in no period of equal length
in the history of the country has there been
such a marked improvement in the condi
ton of any class of people as can be shown
by irrefutable testimony to have taken
place in the condition of the farmers of this
country since the passage of the act of 1890
There has been great advance in the
sum received by them for their crops and
a substantial decline in prices of articles,
especially manufactured products, which
they are obliged to purchase. The farmer
today, with an equal number of bushels of
gram or pounds of meat, can buy more and
better clothing, machinery or supplies than
ever before. Within this period hundreds
of millions of dollars of their Indebtedness
have been paid off, and as class their
financial condition vastly improved. By
the operations of the act of 1890 the farmers
were given larger and more profitable mar
kets both at home and abroad as an in
stance of this our exports to Cuba-largely
of agricultural products-were increased
during the ten months ending June 80,
1892, as compared with the corresponding
ten months of the previous fiscal year, S.
100000, or an increase of 4.S6 per cent.
The following shows the rapid growth of
our foreign commerce:

IN a pupnsneu letter aeaIusr rne use which
had been made of his figures. Mr.. North's
calculations of the relative shrinl;age of
the two grades of wool establishes the fact
that the difference in their actual value
was about equal to the wool duties levied
by our tariff. The Australian woods are
sold skirted, while the Ohio woods are not.
For the purpose of showing the actual
cost to an American manufacturer of a
pound of secured domestic wool purchased
in the United States as compared with the
cost to his English competitor of pound
of secured wool of similar quality IN Lon
don, su bmit the following table, which
shows the average annual price for each
of the twelve years, 1881 to 1892 inclusive,
of a secured pound of fine Ohio fleece in
the United States and of average Aus
tralian fleece IN London:

TRALIAN WOODS.

1t will be observed that the ad valorem
rate on all importations for the fiscal year
1892 was 20.65 per cent, the lowest rate
since 1861, and lower rate than the aver
age imposed by the act of 1916.
An analysis of details of both imports
and exports will develop the fact that de-
sirable changes have taken place in the
character of each. The exports of manu-
featured and other articles, exclusive of all
farm and agricultural products and pc
troleum, amounted in value in 1892 ia
S237, 665, $40. This value of expectation OF
manufactured articles, etc., it will be OBJ
served is $50, 0O0, 900 greater than the total
average annual value of all exports for the
period lS47 to 1861.
/ also present table, which l will have
printed, showing the value of the exports
of the leading products for each year from
1888 to 1892, inclusive The amount of
duty per capita collected during the fiscal
year 1892 was $2.62; that is, less than halt
the relative amount collected in 1872, the
amount for the latter year having been
$5.2S per capita.
These statements and comparisons must
be extremely gratifying to every patriotic
American. They show beyond any posi-
billty OF doubt that the expansion of our
foreign commerce was accelerated rather
than narrowed and limited by the act of
1890, as stated by the senator from Mis-
souri,.
The senator then quoted the oft pub
lished statement that wool growers re-
ceive no benefit from protection, referred
to recent statement by Mr. S. N. d.
North, secretary of the Wool Manufac-
turers' association, pointed out that his
reference was to woods of very different
kinds and continued:
1t is true, however, that the statement
furnished by Mr.. North does apply to
specific grades of wool and to grades that
for many years have sold in London and
the United States at substantially the
same prices. They are, however, sold in
their respective markets in very different
conditions, and the net cost of cleaned
wool to purchasers is widely different.
The senator from Missouri was not aware,
I am sure. that Mr.. North had protested

The price of the pound of clean wool is
of course the only test of actual relative
value to the manufacturer, as this fixes
the cost of his material

No other country can show such record
of expansion and development. 1t will be
seen that the excess of exports over inn
ports, or balance of trade in our favor, was
S202,944,3342 in 1892, an excess of exports
over imports that has been exceeded in
amount but three times in the history of
the country.

of the United States, are greater per CAPITA

THE senator here read letters from S. N
d. North, secretary of the American As
ISOLATION of Wool Manufacturers, and cited
much other evidence showing that the
Warner list of strikes was grossly exag-
gerated, the same instance being set down
several times. He presented other evil
dence of advance of wages and continued:
In no class of people in the United States
has the improvement in condition been SO
marked as in the farmers during the period
under consideration.
The prices received for farm products
subsequent to the passage of the act of 1890
show an average increase on all crops of
1867 per cent. The percentage of increase
on many important articles-corn, for in
stance, at AZ per cent.-was greatly above
this average.
1t will be seen by an examination of the
in the average price of all cereals. the COM
putation being made according to their
relative Importance, was $3.50 per cent.
The price received for meats of all kind
averaged per cent. higher in September,
1891, than in June, 1889.
The most striking result shown by the
inquiry was the fact that while there was
a considerable decline in the prices of man.
ufactured articles which enter into general
consumption there was an advance in the
price of nearly all agricultural products;
and if it had not been for the great decline
that took place in the price of sugar, owing
to removal of duties by the act of 1890, that
large portion of the cost of living which is
embraced in expenditures for food would
have shown an increase instead of diminu-
ton.
While farm products advanced, the prices
of those articles the farmer has to purchase
declined as per the following table, the
price prior to passage of the act being rep
resented Inv 100.
