MONEY And BUSINESS.

The last quarter Of the year begins with the
volume OF business slightly greater than in Au-
gust but smaller than 1t has been at any other
time i'm four years. "Bradstreets' statement
makes last weeks exchanges outside New
York q 3 per cent smaller than for the same week
last year. and the report Of "The Financial
Chronicle" for September makes the decrease
2G7 per cent against 29.S per cent in August
Variations slight in the rate of decrease
can hardly be considered indications favorable
or unfavorabe. and IL Is more satisfactory To re-
member that the payments actually made
through clearing houses represent in part set
Elements on transactions from ono to six months
earlier Nor Is IL astonishing. after the large
volume Of failures this year, that IA proportion
Of matured obligations still requires renewal
The difference between sections In the volume of
exchanges Is rather less marked than il has been
at times; roughly the decrease compared with
last year at Eastern cities In September
about % per cent, at Southern about 27ia per
cent at Western about 30 per cent. and at Pa
cnc cities about "a per cent The term of panic
and extreme prostration has in each section left
effects i'm some measure proportoned to its Sc
verify there Industries must revive for some
little time before Improvement in the volume Of
trade can be expected to be very marked
The decrease in railroad earnings compared
with last year is considerably smaller than in
payments. depending much less on the meeting
of obligations created In the past, and at such
a time as this should measure more nearly the
traffic now in progress. THE Financial Chron-
icle" reports for 70 to 70 roads the earnings Of
three weeks In September, and for 80 the earn
ings Of the fourth week. the aggregate being
III per cent less than last year. on ~ roads
for the entire month the decrease is but 1916 per
cent Considering the partial failure of crops
this IL smaller than might have been expected.

+ "CONSTITUTIONALD TARIFF

Tariff-making for the Democratic Congress
would be simple matter if it were 10 follow
rigdlv the pledges of the National platform.
The argument is presented with great persist
ency by THE New-York sun which notifies
to the Democratic party, day after day that
there can be only one constitutional tariff ac-
cording to its solemn declaration which the
peoplc have ratified. That is Il tariff for revc-
me only. so framed as entirely to eliminate
favor to any especial interest. The platform
Is cited as follows:
We denounce Republican protection as n fraud.
n robbery OF the great majority OF the American
peoplc for the benefit of the few. We declare IL
to be a fundamental principle OF the Democratic
party that the Federal Government has no con
situtional power to impose and collect tariff duties
except for the purpose OF revenue only. We
denounce the Mckinley Tariff law. enacted by the
List Congress- as the eliminating atrocty Of class
LEGISLATION. . And promise its repeal as
one Of the benehcent results that will follow the
action Of the people in ntrusing power to the
Democratic party.
This declaration and this solemn promise. it
is urged. utterly forbid any discrimination in
favor of anybody. either by imposing greater
duties on competing products imported or by
granting cheaper raw materials through re-
moval of duties, because the latter kind Of
favoritsm would only compel the imposition
of higher duties on other articles, not raw ma
terials The party has but one honest course.
it is rciteraed-to find out what rate Of duties
Oh imports will yield the required revenue and
then to impose that rate on all imported articles
alike That and no other would be "consti-
tutional tariff. The attempt 10 make any other
is not only unconstitutional but direct
violation Of n solemn pledge.
1t Is necessary to admit that this reasoning
has great force. If it is TO be supposed that
the Democratic party was at all honest in its
declarations in its platform, it is difficult To
see how any other kind Of tariff than the one
thus described can be imposed Yet every one
knows that no such tariff was ever intended,
even by those who voted for the majority rcso-
luton in the Democratic National Convention.
II it had been understood that this was the
kind Of tariff required by the resolution adopt
ed, probably 1t would have received but IN in
significant fraction Of the vote. The unavoid-

able conclusion is that the platform was In
tended TO deceive. Those who voted for II did
not mean 10 do what the words for which they
voted distinctly promised nor did they in fact
believe what they explicitly declared. that any
other kind of tariff than the one so described
would be unconstitutional Mr. Neal OF ono
who is just now running for Governor. was the
special champion of this declaration. and IN MS
great fight for its adoption he spoke more
frankly and boldly. and went much 1nr'her'
than any other speaker: and yet even Mt. Neal
took care not 10 make il known that the IAN
g,iage he proposed would exclude rs unconsti-
tutional the favoritism Of admitting materials
free for some Industries. as well as the favor
itism of imposing protective duties Tor o'herS'
II is for him TO explain whether he dld HOT
know the meaning Of the words he used, or III
tended TO deceive the voters
The other wing Of Democrats Is at a sore
disadvantage when the platform and pledgeS
Of the party are considered. Crooked eXplana'
tons and shfty devices Of cunning interpre'a'
ton can be found. of course. to reconcile pro
posed action with past pledges. but the exhibit
ton is nevertheless a pitiable one. Thus it Is
said that tariff for revenue only apples ~
such articles only as il may be thought expedi'
cnt to subject to taxation. and that II Is no
violation of the declarations Of the PLATFORM 10
favor some industries by giving them raw ma
terials free. ut the expense of higher duties on
other materials and on products OF Industries.
Or again. It is said that the rate which VIII
Weld the largest revenue Is not the same Tor
,lnroront articles and that low 1utjps may Weld
the best return in some cases and high duties
in others But if it Is intended in any case
by making raw materials free, or by adjusting
duties on imported articles, to enable the home
manufacturer 10 compete more successfully
and so 10 shut ont Il larger share of foreign
imports. the intention there is to prevent reve'
nue. and not to raise revenue. The candid nina
can find only fat hostility TO the solemn dec
Iaration and the pledges Of the platform. i'll any
attempt TO fix duties so that home industries
NAV live. because by doing the imports of
competing foreign products must be dimin
ished, and the raising Of revenue correspond
ingy prevented.
What the Democrats ought TO do is to admit
that their declaration and pledge were such as
ought not to be carried into effect. and par
ticularly that ii would be madness to do 50
with Industries Frustrated rs they are now.
But no such honest frankness is 10 be expected
from the party which declared all protection
unconstitutional Nevertheless ii is In order
for workngmcn everywhere earnestly to pe'i

no new order Of the Navy Department re-
stricting the steam pressure of vessels Undergone
trial, 20 which attention was given in the INV
unc's Washington dispatches recently, covers
practically the suggestions that were maze IN
this PAPER six years ago The rev rule is 10 be-
arplied first at the trial Of the new gunboat.
Montgomery which will take place in Long
Island Sound in few days. The new rul" pro-
vidrs in effect, that in th" future the steam pres
sure upon boilers undergoing official trial of the
machinery shall not ~ any time exceed that
which they were designed t. carry, with five
per cent added as margin There have been no
such restrictions heretofore, and contractors,
in their eagerness to earn the highest possible
premium for speed. have carried steam 10 dan
gerou,y high pressure; instance being
recent one. where the boilers being designed for
100 pounds, the pressure to the square men was
carried mp to 223 pounds. The giving of pre-
miumS for what vessel can accomplish ut her
official steam trial, either in speed or hors" power,
has been criticised by many Of the most con
scrvaiiyc engineers of the Navy but the practice
began nearly eight years ago, and II has not only
continued but has been popular with builders
because il furnished pleasurable prospect of
large gains over the calculated cost Of construc-
ton. One of the objections raised is that the
premium system is too likely 10 encourage faulty
construction if il does not lead to actual fraud
To offer premium for the development of some
one quality of vessel, beyond what the plans
and specifications call for, and without restrc-
tions to prevent the possible strainlng 10 dan
gerous extent of some of its parts, may naturally
lead to the concentration of effort upon the pro-
ducton of that quality, to the neglect of the
others. Ecttcr proof of this is not needed than
the record Of accidents TO vessels of the British
Navy, and the frequent loss of life on official
steam trials. 1t Is likely that the new rnle will
be protested against by constructors OF vessels
now under contract, but it should be borne in
mind that the boilers and machinery of war
vessels ought not to be put to dangerously
severe test merely to earn premiums
