ing the mines several shots were fred
at them from the surrounding timber,

OF the shooting to the governor, stating
that he had asked the sheriff for
protection, and asked IL nothing could
be done to protect his men. The gov

the proper course in calling
on the sheriff, but that under
the statute military aid could only be
extended when asked for by tho sheriff.
The governor said that he In determined
to use every means to prevent violence
and Ia determined to maintain the law

tion. The trus- CHARLES G. HARRISON
tees, however, hope that if Nh. Harri-
SON does not find the duties OF the posi-
tion too onerous his love for the univer-
isity may induce him to retain it per-
manentiy, and In this hope the trustees
are heartily seconded by the faculty, the
alumni, the students and by all Phila-
delphians interested in the welfare OF
the university.
Mr.. Harrison has been of the uni
versity trustees for q long time and has
been chairman OF the ways and means
committee Of the board since 1885. He
was formerly the senior member OF the
sugar refining firm Of Harrison, Frazier
ID Co. and since his retirement from
active business several years ago has de-
voted most Of his time to advancing the
interests Of the university. he has been
Q liberal benefactor Of the institution,
and recently he and his two brothers N
dowed the John Harrison laboratory Of
chemistry in honor Of their grandfather,
who was n or the pioneer chemists of
Philadelphia.
Born in Philadelphia May 8, 1914, Mr..
Harrison received his early education
ut the Episcopal academy. He entered
the university In 1853 and was o class
mate of Dr.. Pepper. the retired provost.
of whom he has ever since been o closo
friend and adviser. They graduated In
1862, Mr.. Harrison being the honor
mar of the class and receiving the Henry
Reed prize. Whether he retains the pro-
vostship or not, Mr.. Harrison has nm
nounced his desire to devote the re-
mainder Of his life to the service OF his
alma mater.
The resignation or Dr. Pepper was
caused by the fnct that the duties Of
provost had become 30 onerous that he
had TO give mp the position or retire from
his medical practice. He will still re-
tain his professorship and take an IN
terest in the university's affairs, With
his letter OF resignation Oh. Pepper sent
the trustees his check for $50, 900 ~ q
contribution toward the rev wing Of
The hospital.

The Boston Herald gives further i'm
formation about the competition Of the
Argentine Republic with us in wheat
raising, which has become a serious
matter. In February our wheat exports
were a little over 100000 bushels and
those Of the Argentine were $4,000
bushels more than ours. In March we
exported 6,535,S18 bushels, and lthe Ar
gentine 9,392,000 bushels. This is a
heavy falling of for MS, as compared
with the same months in 1893, while for
the Argentine it is an increase of I6 per
cent in February, over leo per cent in
March, and Sc per sent in May. 1t is
evident that we have to deal here not
with some fine spun theories Of Indian
competition, and silver prices, and the
rate OF India council bills, but with a
competitor who has been saying nothing
but is raising the stuff and forcing US
out Of the market. The Herald eluci-
dates further the difference between
June and December wheat, IN the New
York market, on a day selected for the
COMPARISON, 6 18 cents per bushel,
while IN London it was but 2 3-S cents.
The difference represents the greater
cost OF carrying wheat here. Conse-
quently the foreign dealer sells in this
market, at our high prevailing rates,
against further delivery, and buys any
where else. The difference lie his profit.
There have been several circumstances
OF late indicating the disadvantage of
u markets. 1t wal stated a short time
ago, that an east bound vessel offered TO
carry wheat to England free of charge,
as ballast, and the Shippers could not
accept because, at prevailing rates, there
would be no profit in the transaction.
We have become SO accustomed to the
idea that Europe must have our wheat,
no matter what it costs, 30 sure to our
grip upon the market, SO confident that
il we only hold off long enough, all our
surplus will be taken at high prices,
that We have let some OF the plainest
facts slip by us unnoticed.
