BUYING AND SELLING.
Free Trade Facts Upset All Free Trade
Orators Theories.

D
Orators Theories.
We have already discussed the free
trade theory that if we do not buy we
cannot sell. We have shown by our
| own import and export statistics that,
since the German tariff went into effect
with its first approach to free trade,
we have been buying very literally
from foreign countries: but. on the
other hand, we have been selling less
than usual in the markets of the world.
AS the results of our actual experience
have proven different to free trade
theories and promises. we thought it
best to examine the results of England
buying and selling. There we have an
absolute free trade country. while here
the free traders might claim that their
theories have not assumed practical
shape because the German tariff is par
italy protective. Without going intO
all the details of British foreign trade.
we take their exports of wooden goods
and their imports Of some food prod
ucts. these being possibly their two
most important lines of trade. Here
are the figures for the eight months
ending August 81 of the present year:

FRED DOUGLASS WILL
To Be Contested by Children of His First Marriage-Secrecy
 in the Matter.

ROCHESTER, N. Y., March 6.-An- nouncement is made today that the heirs of Fred Douglass intend to contest his will and that the legal proceedings in the mat ter will shortly be instituted in this city. MT. Douglass had been married twice, and the children by the first wife, Lewis H. and Charles R. Douglass, are named as the contestants.
 Two years ago the estate was valued at $200, ,000. Ever since MT. Douglass' last marriage there has been a lack of harmony between the sons and Mrs. Douglass. Some little time before his death Mir. Douglass deeded parcel of real estate to his wife at Cedar Hill, where the family lived. It is stated that at different times he gave her presents of money. The con teatants, make the claim that Mrs. Douglass, who is a white woman and formerly llvsd at Hone- eye, near this city, exercised undue infu- ence over their father and persuaded him 10 discriminate against them.
 Though no petition for the probate of the will has been made, it is stated that the sons will have little or nothing coming to widow the heirs of the late Mir. Douglass are Mrs. R. Douglass Sprague, daughter; Misses Estelle and Harriet Sprague, grand daughters, and Mir. Joseph H. Douglass, grandson, of Washington, D. C., and Lewis $. sprague, grandson, of this city. Captain Lee, the colored lawyer of this city, says he is, bound to secrecy by all parties, aud an effort will be made to settle the es. tate out of court.
 Those familiar with the domestic compli- cations, it is said, say there has existed a condition of forced neutrality between the sons and Mrs. Douglass for years. As long ago as 1890 it is stated that Mrs. Douglass began to get possession of her husbands real estate. Mir. Lee, who used to be Mrs. Douglass agent in this city, was relieved of all responsibility about eighteen months ago, and at that time it is understood all of the property in this city had been trans ferred 10 MT. Douglass' wife. When the remains were brought to this city Mrs. Douglass wore no mourning, and this fact was made the subject of much comment.

GUARDIAN,S STATEMENT.

MANCHESTER, March 6.-rhe Guardian in it's commercial article says: "BusiBess has been sluggish, but fairly steady. Though it has been scarcely maintained, a better tone Lai developed under the in fuence of the stlffening of the prices of cotton. The slight decline in Indian ex- change Las partially checked trade, and producers are unwilling to enter into ex- tensive engagements owing to the nnfa- vorabeness of the terms offered. Inquiries are fairly numerous, but they are for the most part unavoidable and are seemingly made merely for the purpose of testing quotations. Transactions generally are Ill de under pressure, aud are only what are required 10 keep the looms going. There Is some eastern inquiry for heavy shiriings. Mexican and finishing goods steady and the demand is larger, but the markets are small. Yarns are quiet, but steady !,

 THE RESURRECTION DYING OUT.
 NEW YORK, March 6.-Passengers on the steamer Yumuri, from Havana, which arrived this morning, did not bring any important news of the Cuban instruction. Almost all action is confined to the south- ern part of the island, in the vicinity of Santiago, and at Havana the news received from there was 80 distorted as to be ludi- crous. It seemed, however, as if the reb- els had hardly leg left to stand on, If government dispatches could be relied on.
 General Sanquily, who was arrested in Havana February 28, will doubtless be garroted, according to the opinions ex- pressed on the Yumuri this morning. fsThere is always more or less discontent In Cuba,,' said e passenger, ''and it is only by intimidation and force of example that quiet is preserved at all; consequently when the government has reason to suspect any one of teaching revolutionary doc trines they try to make an example of him in order to deter others. So l think San- uuiIy' gAfate is hxed.'

CRESCENT CITY RACES.

NEW ORLEANS, March 6.-The weather and track conditions were propitious today and good days sport was the result.

 He favors the canal project, but would prefer that it be built by private corpora ton provided the profits would justify fair dividends. II not, it should be built un- der government control. He is certain, however, that there should bs canal if the route shall prove 10 be feasible one.
 It is Money's intention to remain six weeks or two months in Nicaragua and travel over the better part of the route on horseback. He will endeavor 10 have an audience with the president of the repub- lie and ob ain his idea of the practicablity of the plan and will also consult native engineers.
 The sundry civil appropriation bill as it was sent to the president contained pro- vision which authorizes the president 10 appoint commission consisting of an army officer, naval officer and a third person, 10 be selected from private life, to take a survey of the proposed canal route. Twenty thousand dollars is appropriated to deiray the expenses of the com mission.

from that distinguished frisr, Bixt's at- .torney. Blixt's memory came afterward. He wrote on the blackboard full and then wiped 1t out again. What are you going to do? Has close onfinement made you so morbid that all that's necessary 10 do is to telephone in your ears and you'll believe ii?'
 Blxt's statement on the stand that Harry had told him several different stories of how to kill Miss Cling was read over, and it was then shown that in his previous statements Bixt had said nothing about them. Mir. Erwin considered these to be the rankest of perjury. ''If this is repent. ance, don't want any of it.''
 With a final shot at the unreliability of BlixL's testimony court adjourned until tomorrow, when MT. Erwin will close and the case wall be given to the jury.

 NEW YORK, March GA partial exami- nation of the books of the American Church Missionary society, at Fourth ave- nue and Twenty. second street, shows irregularities amounting to about $20, ,000. Expert accountants are still at work ex- aminiEg the books of the secretary and treasurer to sec if there are any further shortages in the accounts.

He will sail from New Orleans between the 20th and 25th of March arriving at Greytowp few days later. Mir. Money is not satisfied with the bill which recently passed the senate au- thorizina the construction of the canal. It appropriates {70, ,0O0, 900 for this purpose, but makes no provision that a single mile of the canal shall be completed. All of this money, in his opinion, might be spent

THE KNOUT DISCARDED.

BERLIN, March GA dispatch from St. Petersburg to the Lokal Anzeiger says that an imperial edict has been issued abolish ing the use of the knout in the inf1ietion of punisbm ment. Hitherto the peasantry have been completely at the mercy of the local judges. The issuance of this edict is due to the fact that statistics were submitted to the czar which showed that in the last ten years 5000 people were convicted of petty thefts and had suffered the effects of the knout.

AN ADVERTISING IDEA.

AT meeting of the Santa Clara County
Board of Trade the other day Mr.. Stevens
reported novel scheme for advertising,
which had produced most excellent re-
suits; and as it is SO sensible and simple it
ought to serve as a suggestion. He said
that he had sent some dried fruit to his
brother in Vermont, who had distributed
it through the interior towns of the State,
with the result that demand had been
created and market secured for good
part of Mr.. Stevens crop.
1t happened in this case that the grower
had a brother, an advantage which all
growers do not enjoy; but the essential
fact is that a simple distribution of sam
pies of the fruit informed the people of its
superior quality and induced them to order
it for their use. Something like this was
done by the Southern Pacific when it sent
out its train called California on Wheels"
but the main object of that enterprise was
to induce people to settle in the State by
showing them the superb quality of our
products. 1t requires a great deal more
money to move to California than to buy
what it produces, and hence the task of the
Southern Pacific, though expensive and
praiseworthy, bore small results.
California should never lose sight of the
fact that the finding OF market for our
products is the first and most essential
factor in the prosperity and development
of the State. On that proposition and the
one OF profit hanging upon it, depend the
strongest arguments for the growth of the
State by an increase of its population. In
cYNita Of tho tbat bo orouaro bo,,o ~
complished wonders already in this direc-
ton, and are now selling fruit in the East
in sufficient quantities to make sure of a
profit, they have as yet reached but an ex-
ceedingly small proportion of the con-
sumers and have not sufficiently educated
those whose territory they have invaded.
The simple action of the Santa Clara
grower carries a whole volume of sug-
gestion. Every grower has some friend or
can secure some reliable agent to do lust
as the Santa Clara growers brother did
and thus secure market for his own pro-
ducts. Some of the best profits in the
State have been made by building up a
private clientele. A few winemakers par
ticularly never place their products on the
open market, but have worked up a pri-
vate trade that relieves them from all anx-
iety and secures them larger price than
could be otherwise found. The work need
not be confined to individuals, but might
be prosecuted by companies, societies and
unions to an indefinite extent and the
beauty of the system is that in the case
particularly of our non perishable products
the remotest corners of the country could
be proftably reached.

GRAND JURY REPORTS.

Until Judge Sanderson pointed out the
fact nobody seemed to reflect that there is
no law either requiring or authorizing
grand iuries to make such reports as have
been customary. 1.-The law" says the
Judge, ''contemplates action by that body
and not the expression OF opinion. If pub.
lie officials had been guilty of offenses cog
nizable by the Grand Jury, it should pro-
coed against them by indictment or pre-
sentiment in the manner prescribed by
law, and not by the filing of report cen
surfing them, nor, for that matter, prais-
ing them"
Judge Sanderson thus shows not only
