he goes into detail, talks about this
and that being an outrage, etc. When
the editor tells him that he will publish
the complaint provided he signs it, he
says: ooh no, don't want to get into
trouble with these people, don't you
see? Can't you put it in the shape of
an editorial?" He don't care what
trouble the newspaper may get into by
publishing his grievances but he Is too
polite or cowardly to assume the re-.
sponsibility himself. There are plenty
such people in every community, and
the editor always finds out who they

This is the time of year when you
can easily discover the state ofayoung
mans wardrobe. If he has good suit
and poor oyercoat he will stand any
amount Of cold oyer zero weather be-
fore he dons the latter. On the other
hand, if his clothes are frayed and
shiny and his overcoat the best looking
of the two, he will put on the latter
garment when the first suspicion of a
cold breeze comes along, and he'll haye
it all buttoned, too. If his togs are In
good condition all through he puts on
his overcoat when he needs 1t, and but
tons it up when the weather gets cold.
Just watch this aud see if it is not true.

Low PRICES IN 1904.

The failures for 1894 were 1885 in
the United States and 1856 in the Do.
minion of Canada. The liabilities In
the United States were $172, 1885,, 1856 and
in Canada $17,6l6,2l5. Neither tho de.
crease Of over half in this country nor
the increase of over 40p per cent In
Canada is surprising, but the statement
shows that most of the decrease In the
| United States is in manufacturing liza
bilities, while the entire increase In
Canada is in liabilities Of trading con.
Germs. A few states, including New
York and Pennsylvania, show more
failures than in 1863, and in few
southern states the amount Of liabili.
ties is larger, but in the central and
western states very much smaller. In
eleven of the last thirty eight years re,
ported liabilities have been larger than
in 1894, though for this year and 1893
the statement is confined to CONNER.
cial failures, and it was not in former
years. The failures have been 1875 in
every 1000 firms doing business; the
liabilities have averaged $l32.77 to each
firm in trade, and in proportion to the
volume of solvent business represented
by all clearing house exchanges S76a
for every $1,000.
The complete review of different
branches Of business places in a clear
light the fact that prices Of commodi
ties are at the lowest level ever known
Eight years ago in July, prices aver
aged only 1859 per cent of the prices
for the same articles and in the same
markets January /, 1890, and this re-
manned the lowest point ever touched
until August 10, 1893, when the aver.
age fell to 1916, but early this year
prices dropped below all previous rec.
ords and have never recovered, the
average December 26, being only 68.7s
per cent of prices in 1860. The range
was very little higher at the end of the
year and about as low October 25th
The fall since year ago has been 81
per cent, but very unequal in different
branches-in iron and steel products
IA per cent; in wool, 1874 per cent, and
in woolens and cottons, about 10 pei
cent.
These changes contrast sharply with
the decline of wages paid per hours
work, which average only L. per cent
less than year ago. The condition Of
industries has been largely governed
by the fall in prices, and while pro
ductionis much greater than a yeal

ago, the aggregate increase being fair
ly measured bv the increase of S.24 per
cent in hours of work done in Noyem-
Der as compared with the previous year.
The controlling feature in most in
dustries was that the demand has not
kept pace with the output. III iron and
steel the lowest prices of the year are
ut the close and the lowest ever known,
the demand calling for less than half
the usual quantity of rails, with large
decrease in many other branches and
the probable use of structural forms
was larger in 1894 than ever before.
The wooden industry records reduc-
ton for the year of about Il quarter
less than normal and for the last four
months 2S.47 per cent less than in 1892
in quantity of WOODEN used, but in val
he of product the decrease was of
course larger.
The year has been especially noted
for the lowest prices of wheat and cot
ton on record. Both suffer from a
wholly unprecedented accumulation OF
stocks, the crop being large. Outside
this country the wheatproduct has not
increased enough to justify q
price of 60 cents at New York, and the
accumulation is largely due to false
reports of yield, intended to frighten
buyers and raise prices. The same in
fluence has been felt in cotton, which
is also affected by the world wide de.
preston in business and the decrease
in consumption of goods. In the other
produce markets the year has been
relatively less important.-Dun'S Re
cieiC.

A HIGH FLYER.
BE Walked Into the Diamonds and
the Widow is Minus

NEW YORK, Oct. 29.-Charles
Comstock, a member OF a WELL
known family in San Francisco,
has been arrested in this city on
the charge OF having absconded
with diamonds and jewelry valued
at $500, the property Of Mrs. Car
oline Colton-Martin, of that place.
He was remanded in jefferson
Market police court, so that the
San Francisco authorities might
be notified. Comstock, it is alleged,
acted in a friendly capacity for
Mrs. Martin, a widow, as agent for
certain real estate which she
owned in Alameda county, Cali
fornia. Two months ago he told
Mrs. Martin that an assessment of
$1,000 was due on the property in
question, aud that unless the
assessment was paid at once, the
land would be sold. Mrs. Martin
did not have the ready money at
the time and she gave Comstock
number OF pieces Of jewelry, con-
sisting of diamonds and pearls, of
the value Of $4,000, with directions
to pledge the same for sufficient to
pay the assessment. Comstock, 1t
is said, took the jewelry and dis
appeared. The prisoner, 1t was
said by Capt. O'Brien, acknowl-
edged that he had taken the Jewels
in question and had disposed Of
them. He said that he had squan-
dered the money in the betting
ring and at cards. Capt. O'Brien
said that Comstock was wanted in
Providence, r. l., on account OF
some financial transactions with
an aunt residing there. Maj.-Gen.
Jos. Comstock, manager OF the post
graduate hospital, is an uncle Of
the prisoner.

Alfaro a Man of Peace

NEW YORK, Oct. ga Herald
dispatch from Panama says: Gen.
Alfaro sends to the Herald this
communication: 81 am continu-
ing the disbandment of the army,
with a view to giving my earnest
attention to the work Of building
the railway to the interior. The
country desires tranquility, and l
propose to devote my energies
while in office to the attainment of
that object"
This communication is given in
response to telegram asking him
to express publicly the attitude he
intends TO adopt toward Colon bian
liberals who are striving to over
throw the conservative govern
ment established by President
Caro-.
1t is inferred here, from the tone
OF Gen. Alfaro's reply, that the gov
eminent need fear no interference
in Colon bian affairs from Ecuador,
and it is suggested that under such
circumstances the mobilization Of
Colombian forces on the frontier is
now unnecessary.

CHANDLER SAYS SOMETHING.
Predicts War With England and
WIN Welcome It.

New YORK, Oct. ga special to
the World from Concord, n. H.,
says: Over his own signature and
under the caption, "Our coming
war with England-a prediction"
Senatar Chandler gave out the fol-
lowing statement last night:
"War between the United States
and England is inevitable. 1t will
arise on account of British disre-
gard of our interests. 1t will also
be forced by British encroachments
upon other nations all over the
world. It will be fought by us,
having Russia as European ally.
AS a war, offensive on ourIpart, it
may not happen within twenty
years; as defensive war, it may
come sooner and should be well
coined. A sure result would be
the capture and permanent scqui-
sition of Canada by the United
States. England proposes to seize
from the United States portion Of
Alaska. She is destroying indie
pendent governments in all partslof
of the globe. She treats American
sentiment and remonstrance with
insolence and defiance.
"For the vindication of the Mon
roe doctrine in the western hemis-
phere and the protection of these
independent governments in the
eastern hemisphere and the islands
of the oceans, it is necessary that
the United States should prepare
for war with England. 1t had bet
ter come now and be over, than
twenty years from now. We
ought to define our position and
say that IL it is not assented to we
shall fight to maintain it. 1t will
take some time to prepare for an
offensive war, but a defensive war
can come none too soon. Let Eng
land begin. Russia will be our
sure ally. She is the great sbso-
lutte monarchy and the United
StaUes the great republic of the
world. The former needs and is
entitled to seaport in a warm re-
gion, OF which England persistent
ly deprives her, but she wants no
more territory. The United States
wants only the Sandwich Islands
and a foothold in the West Indies.
Together they can defy the world.
They must and will restrain the
brutality and bloody avarice of
Great Britain. Let this be under
stood at once and let England
strike the first blow il she chooses.
A million OF men and muskets will
overrun Canada and Eugland's
ships will be swept from the ocean.
Let England begin. We ought to
begin IL it is necessary to save to
Venezuela the mouth of the ORR
noco.

Missionary Affairs Critical.

LONDON, Oct. 29.-The News re-
ceived here from Hong Kong, that
an outbreak against foreigners
is expected at Canton, seems to In
dictate that there has been a re-
view of the widespread anti
foreign feeling. The British con-
sui at Hankow, it Ia now known,
was warned that an outbreak
would occur at WI Cheng on Sep
tomber II, when the soldiers were
to mutiny and attack the foreign
ers. In view of this, the Swedish
and American ladies at WI Cheng
sought shelter in the consulate at
Hankow and latter the children OF
the American Episcopal school
were taken to place Of safety. 1t
appears that the Chinese braves
who were ordered to disband after
the war objected to doing so, and
arranged to attack the foreigners,
none Of the latter were to
be killed, therefore, the governor
Of WI Cheng thought best to carry
out the disbanding decree and thus
the serious situation was tided
over. The state Of affairs, how
ever continues to be critical.

Senator Dolph, who was for sever
al years a prominent member of
the foreign relations committee of
the Senate, in an address delivered
at the Charming club on the for
eign policy of the United States,
said of the Venezuelan question:
"There are but two courses for the
United States to pursue, one OF
which is to abandon the Monroe
doctrine and no longer protect
against European aggression, mon
archial domination on this hemis-
phere and submit to the humilia-
ton such a course would bring
upon us. The other is to enforce
our policy concerning the affairs Of
this continent by a protest and, il
necessary by intervention and the
ultimate arbitration Of the sword.
We should also extend to Cuba the
Monroe doctrine and take that
island under the protection of the
