Judge Ricks' Ruling Affirmed.

CINCINNATI, Oct. 3-During the recent
A. r. U. strike James Lannon an en-
gineer of the Ann Arbor railroad, left his
engine on the main line without bringing
it in. For this he was arrested and fined
$50 for contempt of court by Judge Kicks,
of the United States district court, sitting
at Toledo. The A. K. U. appealed the
case to the United States supreme court,
which sent it to the United States circuit
court OF appeals, holding that the su-
preme court had no jurisdiction in the
case. In Cincinnati, yesterday, the cir.
cult court of appeals affirmed the ruling

EIIZABETH, N. j., Oct. 3.-Judge Van
Syckle in the Union county court, charged
the grand jury that the practice at church
fairs of holding drawings for prizes is
violation of the law against lotteries, and
as much an offense as race track pool sell
ing and other gambling. He read pro-
gram of fair held in St. Joseph's Roman
Catholic church at North Plainfeld, at
which there were drawings, and charged
the jurors to investigate it.

NO Shut Out British comnetition,

The Boston Journal of Commerce takes
a most hopeful view of the cotton manu-
featuring business under the new tariff
law. Under the Mckinley law there
were millions of dollars worth of cotton
goods imported from Great Britain. The
encouraging reports of business since the
new tariff went into effect, the Journal
thinks, should stimulate American man
ufacturers to produce cotton goods of
such quality and design as will meet all
the wants of the American market, and
at cost that will shut out foreign com
petition. And this, the Journal says,
can be done without reducing the wages
of operatives, by the use of improved ma
chinery
The new mills that are going up in the
south are being provided with mod
ern machinery; machinery that saves
to 10 per cent. of the labor usually ex-
pended upon the older patterns in use in
the New England mills. The result is
that the south will shortly be manufac-
turing very large percentage of the
coarse goods and some fine goods The
Journal urges that the New England
mills can save, in many instances, quite
as much as 10 per cent, in the manufac-
ture OF the finer grades of goods by dis
carding the old machinery and putting
in new, even if they have to borrow
money to meet the cost. Money is plen-
tiful now, it says, at per cent. or less.
To reduce expenses in that way would
be much more desirable than to reduce
them by cutting wages. When wages
are reduced the purchasing power of the
markets is curtailed. When wages are
sustained and the cost of production de-
creased by improved apparatus, the
purchasing power of the markets is aug
mented
