1otas Eduor or ne Rs5I,s-;
SIR:-Nany communications are COM
ing TO me from the First Congressional
district with respect 70 my intentions
during the coming campaign. These
deserve an answer. The Democracy in
nominating me three times as It's candi-
date has conferred honors upon me be-
yOnd my deserving. / have ieit that
under these circumstances, 1 should not
stand in the way Of the promotion of
ether deserving Democrats aud have
this time, 70 this date, made no effort to
obtain denomination.
My duties as the present member will
in all probability detain me here until
the meeting OF the convention.
Ihsve OF late been led TO believe that
there is sentiment prevailing among
the Democrats that 1 should again be
their candidate. Uader these circum-
stances / feel that il is my duty to
obey the will whatever 1t may be Of the
Rrea; party TO whose principles / have
ever been warmly and sincerely de-
voted.
Should the coming convention decide
that should be the candidate l will
accept its decisions aud march in the
froat Of the battle Should any other
Democrat be the choice OF the conveu-
tion be will find me speaking for him
10 every county Of the district as earn
estly and Is cordially as / ever did for
myself. The coming campaign will be
hard fought one, and the Democracy
both can and will win. Soon a Demo
cratic tariff bill will be the law
OF the land and the final
battle will be fought with trusts aud
monopoly. There will be 40 steps back
ward in tariff referm aud every effort OF
calamity howlers and unpatr.otic men
canBOt prevent a wave Of prosperity
from sweeping over the ard and dem
ocratic victory this fall The Demo
Gratis will stand shoulder 20 shoulder
and the tariff oomJast and Boosting 20
which we have been listening for some
months will pass away like 'thin clouds

A TEST CASE.
The Suit Against the Sugar Trust of Great
Importance.

Washington, October 23.-Solicitor
General Maxwell will tomorrow appear
in the United States Supreme Court
to argue the Sugar Trust case. This His
the proceeding instituted in the Circuit
Court of the United States for the east
ern district of Pennsylvania to rescind
the contr acts Dy which the Americ an
Sugar Refining Company became pos
sessed Of stock of the e. G. Knight,
Franklin and Spreckles sugar refining
companies, and the Delaware sugar
house, Cd the ground that the purchase
of the said stock was in violation of the
Sherman trust law, and for an injunc-
tion against the further violation of the
statute. Judge Butler, of the circuit
court, dismissed the bill, holding that
no federal question was made out upon
the proof, and the court of Appeals
affirmed the decree in the opinion rem
de1ed by Judge Dallas and concurred in
by Judges Acheson and Green. The
United States thereupon appealed to the
Supreme Court of the United States.
The issue of the case is regarded as
of the greatest Importance as upon it
depends not only the result of similar
suits instituted against other corpora
tlons alleged to exist in violation of the
law invoked, such as the Freight Traffic
Association), but the validity of the law
itself to accomplish the object sought by
its enactment, viz: The prevention or
suppression of contracts, com binations
in form of trusts or otherwise, or con-
spiracies i'll the restraint OF trade or COM
merce among the several states, or with
foreign nations.

Want 'Stoppage Pay.o

Fall River, October ga new complica-
ton tonight was added to the mill situation
by the action of the executive committee of
the mule spinners association. Some two
hundred working spinners had been thrown
out of work because of the refusal of the
weavers to accept the terms of the re-
duction. They crowded into the spinners'
hall tonight and asked to be recorded as
seligible for a portion of the spinners' fund
under the bylaws relating to ''stoppage
pay.'' These demands create new phase
in the trades union struggle.

A TEST OF ALUMINIUM.
1t Will Not Withstand the Action Of
Salt Water.

Interesting Test by Naval officers to Deter
mine the Advisability of Using Alumni
um in the Construction of Boats.
Washin uo45 October 23.-The Navy De-
partment has just completed a test of
aluminium as a material for ships boats. with
the object of determining it's adaptability t..
naval uses with results that demolish some
of the elaborate claims made for the metal
On account of its comparatively light
weight it's utility on board ship is almost
inestima BILE, it it were not for the fact that
1t has been shown to be exceedingly suscep-
tible to the corrosive action of salt water.
Two sheets, sixteenth of an inch thick.
were immersed for three months at Norfolk
navy yard. One was stated to be pure
metal, and the other slightly alloyed with
nickle. The plate was thickly. covered with
large barnacles> throughout, the surface
more or less pitted by the action of the salt
water. The alloyed plate was encrusted
with smaller 5arnacles and badly corroded,
being perforated and eaten away over much
of it's exposed surface. This plate was as
injuriously affected as a combination of
iron and copper would nave been with the
same exposure. The claim that barnacles
would not adhere TO the metal is not sub
stantiated in the smallest degree. In the
opinion of naval experts. it is not advisable
to build aluminium boats intended to remain
any time in the water, though the use of the
metal may be advan tageous on account of
the great gain in lightness for metal work
exposed to salt water only occa sionally.

NOT CAMPAIGN LITERATURE.

Letter.

Washington, October Accommodation
Loc hran of the pension Office. makes the
following statement in regard to the cffcu-
lar letter to postmasters, published as a
campaign document: s'In adjudging a
pension case,it always has been the practice
of the bu1eau.to call on postmasters in the
locality where the applicant resides for in
formations as to his credability. Post
masters sometimes object to giving this in
formation. particularly when the informa-
tion is derogatory to the character of the
applicant without some assurance their
communication will be held confidential. 1t
was in answer to an inquiry from Postmast-

whether such information would be held
as confidential that the letter which sis be-
ing given publicity was written. No similar
letter has been sent out. unless in answer

INCREASED IMPORTS.
Europe Has Increased Her Shipments I'm
der the New Tariff.

Washington, October 23.-The American
consuls throughout Europe are sending re-
ports to the State Department showing a
remarkable increase of exports to the
United States from their consular districts
ST nee the new tariff bill became law. At
M arseilles, the business of the month end
ing October l, was the largest in the history
of the consulate, being S2l5,32S in excess of
September, 1929, and $2O5,7T7 in excess of
the average of the preceding twelve
months. The consul states this increase is
not confined to articles placed on the free
list by the bill. but the proportion is ap-
proximately the same for all merchandise
leaving the district. The values of exports
for September of 1898 and 1894. respectively
are ST. 1863 and $343, s56. The consulates at

SUING FOR MILLIONS.
End of a Famous Suit which Involved
Great Sums.

Cleveland, O., October 23.-Judge
Ricks, sitting in the United States Cir
cult Court for the northern Ohio district
this morning decided famous suit in
volving the ownership of millions Of
stock of the Canadian Copper Company.
the Anglo-American Iron Company, and
the Central Ontario Railway Company.
The suit has been pending in the courts
several years, and grew out of the man
ipulations of stocks OF the three compa-
MES by James B. and Samuel R. Ritch-
lie. Those interested in the deals with
the Ritchies were ex-senator H.B.
Payne, John + stephen Burke of Hook
ing Valley fame, the estate of Fl !. B. Cor
mel and J. B and. George McMullen. The
Ritchies sunk their fortunes in the enter
prises and something like million and
half of dollars we're borrowed from
the other stock olders named. the Ritch-
les giving large blocks of stock AS col
lateral SECURITIES. When the failure of
the enterprises became apparent the
Ritchies were sued or the amounts Dor.
rowed. counter claim of nearly a
million and a half was set up for per-
sonal services of the Ritchles in the
manipulation of the stocks. The best
legal talent in the state was engaged in
the trial, and the fight was very bitter.
Judge. Kicks disallowed all the claims
of the Ritchies, and entered Judgment
against them as follows: H. b. Paine,
5000, 900; Stephen Burke, $3.50, 900; Cor
nell estatee, 200. 600; McMullens $27O. 600.
The Rit, d es were given eleven days In
which to iiquidate the judgments. IL
the event of their failure to do SO the
collateral securities were ordered sold.
II the amount realized from the sale of
the stocks exceeds the amount of the
judgments the balance is to be paid to
the Ritchies. If there is a dehcit, the
securities held by the wife of S. r.
Ritchie are ordered to be sold by the
court. Judge Ricks referred to S. r.
Ritchie as man bound up in an effort
to make millions, in whose scruples he
had very little faith.
