The ant,-spaion bill, which passed
the lower house Of Congress is now
before the Senate. A United States
Senator, week before last, in two
hours speech in favor of the bill,
said that "the anti-op.ion bill was
not directed against legitimate
trade, but that gigantic modern in.
vention known as short selling of
agricultural products of the country.
This was a system under which by
Misrepresentation and tricks of the
trade and fraud it was possible to
juggle with values and practically
eliminate from the commerce of the
country the operation of the law of
supply and demand-a system which
robbed the producer and filled the
pocket of the parasite. At least 80
per cent of all the business of the
produce exchange and boards of
trades in the United States was of a
fictitious character, where property
was sold without ownership and
without any intention of delivery
on the part of either the seller or
the buyer. In Chicago at least s5
per cent was Of that fictitious char
acter-prices being fixed without re-
gard to the law Of supply and de-
mand. The great agricultural pro-
ducts of the country were made the
football of gamblers-wheat and
cotton playing the same role as
chips on q faro table or as the peas
Of thimble-ngger. Between the
grain producer and the loaf-eater
there stepped in a party to say at
what price the one should sell and the
other buy-a parasite that robbed
them both. He made the broad
statement that the prices Of agri-
cultural products Of the country
were made artificially and arbitrarl-
ly on the boards Of trade and the
most notably on the Board Of Trade
in Chicago, and that, too, without
the slightest regard to the law Of
supply aid demand, or any natural
condition whatever.
| ''Ths speaker sent to the clerks
desk and had read several para.
graphs from the Chicago newspa
pers describing Pardridge's bea,
operations in grain on the Chicago
Board Of Trade; also q paragraph
stating the depression Of prices BY
those operations. In view of these
facts it was not hard. he said, to un
! derstand Why farmers were selling
! wheat at 10 cents q bushel instead
Of 90 cents. He gave relative ag
ures Of the actual annual deliverie,
Of wheat il New York, Chicago
and Minneapolis. These figures, hs
said showed that tho deliveries il
\ Minneapolis were three times !,

PITTSBURG. Pa, Aug. Con June
last Martin Reed, who was confined in the
Washington county Jail for the murder of
Alexander Chappell, escaped, and was not
located until today, when Officers Mcbride
and Orr of Washington found him con-
cealed in an ice-house at Noblestown, near
Washington. When discovered Reed re-
fused TO surrender, whereupon an attempt
Was made to force the door of the ice
house and take him. Reed had evidently
determined not be taken alive; for he
opened fire on the officers ana wounded
Officer Orr. The policemen saw that they
could not Capture him unaided, and d
large number of the citizens of the place
responded to their call. A second attack
on the building was comm enced. Shot
after shot came from Reeds revolver, and
his firing was SO rapid that no one dared
to venture near the ice-houSe.
At this time Constable Coyle of Nc
Donald station placed himself at the head
of a number of others and led an assault
on the murderer's stronghold. The be-
sigers met with volley from Reeds pistol
and Constable Coyle was instantly killed.
The death of this officer spread consUerna-
tion among the assembled citizens, but
they quickly rallied and determined to set
fire to the ice-house, and thus force Reed s
surrender. They were successful iu set
ting it on fire, and the conflagration spread
from one end of the building to the other
But Reed did not give himself up On the
contrary, as the flames mounted higher
and higher and ne saw that he had but the
choice of burning to death, surrendering
or shooting himself, he chose the latter,
and the report of his revolver rang out,
startling the crowd, who had not looked
for such IA termination TO the tragedy.
The booy was recovered soon afterwards,
burned to crisp, but showing the bullet
hole in the head

SPECUlATlNG IN KIDS.

HARTFORD, Conn.,, Aug. 6-Selectman
fowler has made report to the board of
selectmen of this town of his inyestiga-
ton into certain baby farms, alleged to
exist In Hartford and vicinity. He has
found five baby farms in existence in
Hartford, West Hartford and Bloomfield,
III which children from other towns and
outside the state have been placed by Mrs.
Virginia L. Smith, the missionary of the
Clty mission, charitable organization ic
this city. Aflidavits were presented from
the women running the farms, claiming, as
they say, to be ignorant of the law and
throwing the responsibility upon the city
missionary for not reporting the cases as
required by law. No record of the cases
has been kept, but they are almost all
iilegitimate children, Mrs. Smith paid 81
per week for each child for its board, and
her son. Dr. Q. G. Smith, city physician,
attended them when i'll. Facts are given
showing that some of the children have
been adopted by persons paying from Sl3
to $40 each to Mrs. Smith. The report
goes to show that the farms have been run
IN the interest of Mrs. Smith, who has re-
celved young girls from various parts Of
the state, and has placed them there dur
ing conflnemen5, receiving pay from them
or their betrayers and placing the babies
at the farms, all under the promise of the
strlctest secrecy. The practice has pre-
vailed about eight years. and probably 800
TO 4OO children have been boarded at these
farms by Mrs. Smith. The selectmen this
morning unanimously accepted the report.

THE DENVER RATE SQUABBLE.

CHICAGO, Aug. 6-The controversy be
tween the Atchison and Chairman Cald-
we'll has become so mixed up that nobody
pretends to know just how the matter
stands. One thing is certain, however: the
AtchisOp has appealed from the chair
mans ruling in three cases within little
over IA week. +. c. Donald, vice chairman
of the Central Traffic association, and
Oscar Murray, traffic manager of the Big
-Four, have been agreed upon as arbitra-
tors to decide whether all the arbitratorS
in an appeal must be named within five
days after decision has been rendered by
the chairman, or whether the chairman
may take five days after an appeal has
been made. This question once settled,
the parties TO the controversy may get
down to business without further delay.
And il is fortunate that this Is the case;
because the AtchjSon management has
made up its mind that the next notice il
serves upon the chairman will be a notice
of withdrawal from the Western Passen-
ger association. But iJ is safe to say that
the quiOCling is over. The arbitrators
have been accepted to settle the question
Of whether the Atchison people or Chair
man Caldwell has interpreted article 10 of
the agreement correctly. If they decide in
favor of the Atchison, then Mr. Donald
will be the sole arbitrator to eide
whether Chairman Caldwells objection to
Mr.. Ford WAS juStifiabe or not. II ha de-
eide that Mr. Ford is disinterestvu pariy
then Mr.. Ford will be the sole arbitrator
TO decide whether the Atchison was justi-
fed in making the twelve-dollar rate to
Denver and return. But, of course. it is
impossible to tell what the result of the
first arbitration will be, and the final out
come hinges upon that result.
