Chicago, April lS.-The old sash. door

is considered on a stronger foundation
than ever before. Three months ago an

ing manufacturers, representing 80 per
cent of the sash. door and blind output
OF h United States. had Joined the

as a guarantee oof good faith in the
"maintenanceof prices. which was 10 be
forfeited upon the violation of any OF

The combined capital Of the firms
approximates $50, 900, 900. The meeting
decided that the prices to prevail during
the next six months should be advanced

at once. 1t was also agreed, in order
to reduce the heavy stocks being car
ried by the firms to restrict the output

Tells a Sensational story
Went to Cuba.

Sioux Falls, S. D., April ia. Gale,
a director in the Dakota National bank
here. and one Of the wealthiest and best
known citizens OF the state. has just re-
turned from Jacksonville, Fla, where
he spent the winter. He has made pub
lie a statement which will probably
cause a little stir in certain circles. He
says that while in Jacksonville ne
called on j. :. Fairhead, formerly a citi-
zen of Sioux Falls, but now In business
in Jacksonville. on his second call there
Mr.. Gale says Fairhead told him he had
received a telegram that morning from
a Sioux Falls man saying that w. w.
Taylor would be in Jacksonville that
day and asking the recipient of the tel
egram to take care of him. Mr.. Fair
head says he understood from the tele-
gram tina he was asked to do what he
could for Taylor's comfort and II neces-
sary to promote his escape. Mr.. Fair
head refused to disclose the name OF the
Sioux Falls man who sent the tele-
gram. and there is now some pretty
lively guessing as to who 1t was. AS a
matter Of fact Mr.. Gale says Taylor
came through Jacksonville that day
but did not stop, as a detective was
only twenty-four hours behind him
MIR. Gale says that Taylor went on &c
Tampa and there took a boat for Cuba

No Thought OF Hampering the Work OF

No Thought OF Hampering tho Work OF
the Present Company.
washington, April 20.-Dr. Guzman. the
Nicaraguan minister, was asked concern
ing a report that Nicaragua desired hat
the present Nicaraguan Canal companv
should surrender the concession under
which work has been done thus far and
that the United States and Nicaragua
should jointly undertake the future work
as a government enterprise. The minis
ter explained the report was due to a mis-
apprehension. The Nicaraguan govern
ment had no wish, he said, that the COM
pany should surrender its concession. 1t
had every confidence that the company
would push the enterprise with all pos
sible dispatch. Under these circumstances
DR.. Guzman said. the plan OF joint gov
ernmental action vas not a live one and It
was not regarded as a remote possibility.
The government wanted to give every'fa-
cility and encouragement to the company
and did not want the impression to get
abroad that VI considered a forfeiture
likely or even possible. DIR. Guzman saws
the misrepresentation arose through cred.
iting to him a statement which he had
communicated to the state department as
an enclosure. The statement had been
made during an interview between the
United tates minister at Nicaragua and
the government authorities. 1t was for
warded to DR.. Guzman and by him sent to
the state department without any purpose
to indorse the views. 1t has since been
found that the report of the interview at
Managua was very defective. Minister
Baker was talking In English and under.
stood nc Spanish. The Nicaraguan min.
lister was talking In Spanish and under.

covered on the outside with tar paper.
Landon swore also hat no crops We're

SIGNIFICANT INTERVIEW
secretary Morton Has Little Faith In In
ternational Bimetallism.

Washington, April 20.-Secretary
Morton gave out his afternoon a sig
niicant interview on the silver ques-
ton. Coming from a cabinet minister
after the cabinet council OF yesterday,
it Ia regarded as expressing to a great
extent the sentiments entertained by
the president. When asked II he
thought anything would grow out OF
the proposed international monetary
conference, Mr.. Morton replied:
II do not believe that an internation-
al congress can establish permanently
a commercial ratio between gold and
silver, any more than 1t can establish a
permanent commercial ratio between
rye and wheat. But If ar international
conference can fix the price in gold, OF
silver, it Fan also fix the price of wheat
or OF any other commodity and thereby
avoid all possible shrinkages in values
which tend TO cause panics.'
MY own judgment is" said the sec
rotary, that we must sooner or later,
declare that the United States Of Amer.
lea recognizes gold as the best and least
fuctuating measure Of value and me-
dunn of exchange which the
OF civilization has thus far utilized
Would not such a declaration made
by either OF the great parties drive
away the sill men now in these pan.
ties?"
Yes" replied Mr.. Morton. 1T is
barely possible that the financial falla.
cies OF the populists and other vagaries
may temporarily secure "A majority Of
the votes OF the United States. Should
a catastrophe ever oyertake the
country, the people must learn by ex-
perience what they should have learned
by diligent study and reason"
II was suggested to the secretary that
the effort might again be made. as IL
had been made in the past, to take a
middle ground on the money question
so as to offend as little as possible and
keep the great mass Of voters as much
In line as possible. Mr.. Morton de-
nounced this as an unwise policy.
THE time for straddlers has passed."
he replied. Those who are for a sound
currency on a gold basis ought to have
the courage to say so and abide by the
results OF their declaration"
