Take the electric railway field. for in

of electrical worl. possessing the great
est possibilities for rapid commercial
development, and consequently offers a
constantly growing market for electrical
manufactures. Six years ago the price
for a complete equipment for trolley
car. including two motors. was about
81, 800. This price held for n year and
half and then dropped to So, $50.
-, 800 AID IS, 800, until two years ago
it was about 50, $50. One year ago
So, 900 was the price of the same equip
lncnt. greatly improved in quality and
efficiency, while today the average price
is between $1,000 and $1,000. We
have been told Of an electric railway
manager who desired quite recently to
purchase an equipment for n single car
He wrote to seven manufacturing COM
panies and immediately was called MP
on by seven statesmen. all of whom had

order. The prices quoted ranged from

Afraid OF Macveaeh. :.


AtObio acIuius
After thinking over the matter,
the Chicago Tribune has come to the
conclusion that it will be folly for the
republicans of Illinois to follow the
''unwise example" of Illinois demo-
Gratis. "No interested pleadings of
candidates should induce the repub-
licans to do so," it saws. 1.-The dem
Ocrats have put all their eggs in one
grocer's basket. They have decided
that the efforts of one senatorial can
didate to whom office is promised in
advance will contribute more to-
wards carrying the Legislature than
the efforts of half n dozen men each
of whom hopes the Legislature will
confer the honor upon him.
The republicans are afraid of Mac
Neagh. The Tribune knows that
there is not in the republican party
in this state man who can stand up
before Franklin MacVeagh on the
stump and discuss present issues.
1t hopes that by preventing a nomi-
nation those half dozen men will each
put some Doodle into the campaign
so as to improve the republican
chances of carrying the legislature.
And it is convinced that no one of
the eminent republicans in this state
will take any particular interest in
the campaign unless he can see
something in sight for himself.

proclamation declaring that the
events of the past ~ hours rendered
II necessary that extraordinary
measures should he taken to pre-
serve the public peace; that he would
exercise every power vested in him
for the protection of property and
the preservation of peace. The
proclamation calls on every citizen
to avoid crowds, attend strictly to
personal affairs, and see that all wo-
men and children are kept from the
public streets and railroad tracks.
The police are directed in the procla-
nation to dispense every assemblagc
in the public streets aud arrest all
who refuse. The mayor also dis
patched letter to Superintendent Of
Police Brennan. reciting that he was
informed that the police offered no
resistance to the strikers who over
turned the ears on the Lake Shore
tracks, directing inquiry into the
