New York Expects to Become an
Established Center.
AND TO SUBDUE BOSTON
Merchants and Traders CentTalize In the
Magnificent Building on Beach
and West Broadway.
New York, Dec. 1.-The Herald today

New York, Dec. 1.-The Herald today
says:
The opening OF the wool exchange.
whose handsome building at Beach and
West Broadway is almost completed, Is
expected to make New York the wool
market of the country, and to revolution
ize the methods of the business both here
and in the east. 1t Is asserted by those
who are back of this scneme that its ef-
feet will be to drive the wool trade of Bos-
ton to this city in a body, and already
many eastern merchants and traders have
taken offices in the wool exchange build
ing. There has never before been an es-
tablished center for the marketing of wool
in this country. Wool merchants and brok-
ers in this city, for example, were scatter
ed about from Canal to Pine street. There
was no concert of action among them,
and no means of providing entertainment
or accommodations for the out of town
trade.
Many merchants have long been con-
WINGED that New York. as the natural
port of entry of the country, should be
provided with the facilities for the sale
of foreign wool.
1t was seen that If this was done mer-
chants would no longer be obliged to go
to London to bid on their wool, as they
do at present, but could transact all their
business in New York. The new wool
exchange proposes to provide these IA
ture, be sold here to manufacturers di-
rect.
Another important feature of this CEN
tralization of interest will be that the
manufacturers must be attracted to New
York more frequently that to other mar
kets, not only because wool will be sold
here at auction, as it is in London, but
because they are interested in pushing the
sale of their goods through New York
commission houses.
All the offices in the History fire-proof
building have already been rented by wool
Importers or brokers from many parts
of the country.
The exchange room on the first floor Of
the building has been handsomely fitted
up and every possible facility provided for
the inspection of stock. The New York
Wool Warehouse Company was incorpor-
ated several years ago with the object Of
putting up the present building at a cost
of s1,000,00O

A Southern Concern a Dangerous Com

A Southern Concern a Dangerous Com
petitOr of Cramps.
Washington, Nov. 30-There were two
surprises when the bids for building the
two big battleships authorized by the
last congress were opened at the navy de-
partment today.
The Southern ship-building concern I'M
derbid all competitors north and west for
the building of these boats on the plans
drawn up by the navy department.
The Cramps offered to build the two bat
tleships with armor for the hulls and
throw in another ship of the lake type,
but without armor, on their own plans,
for the sum fixed upon by congress as the
ultimate cost of the two ships.
The new boats will be about 10000 tons
displacement, but will really be larger
than the Iowa, the largest of the battle
ships now under construction.
Cramp & Sons offered to construct one
on the departments plan for $2,S2O,OOO; two
for S2,7OO0O0 each. They offered to build
three ships on their own plans with COM
plete armor for the hulls of two for 49,,
100000. They offered to build two ships
on their own plans, with armor for both
hulls and guns, for $S,S50,OO0, and finally
proposed to build the ships on another
set of plans of their own for 81, 800 600 for
one, or 81, 100000 each for two.
The Union Iron Works of San Francisco
bid on the departments plans; S2,740, OOC
for one ship, s2,69O.OOO for each of the
two. on their own plans they bid s., $50, >
/ 900.
The Newport News Ship-Building and
Dry Dock Company of Virginia put in
one straight bid of 3d. 900 for one and
| $2,2500O0 each for two boats.
As the law requires one of the ships
to go to the Pacific coast, if the price is
reasonable, there is little doubt that the
! Union Iron Works will receive the con-
tract for at least one ship, as its bid is
about a quarter of a million dollars less
than the contract price for the Iowa.

FREe.FoR-ALL FIGHT IN CHICAGO

Clubs, Chairs, Canes and Fists Freely
Used in Democratic Meeting.
Chicago, Dec. 1.-THE hall of the
Cook county democracy tonight was
the scene of a desperate free-for-all
fight in which clubs, chairs, canes and
fists were freely used.
There was a contest between John
Powers and Thomas Gahan, the latter
an Altgeld man, for the Craftsmanship
of the county central committee. The
trouble began when Mike Mcdonald
arose as he phrased it, ITO tell the
miserable low down Gahan push a few
things about themselves"
A big man sitting on a window sill
became so much moved by McDonald's
fiowery language that he whacked a
Gahan man in the eye-and then it was
all over the place. The doors were
locked and the fight ragged for half an
hour. When everything in the room was
smashed Powers and his friends with
drew, having lost the political battle,
but ready for more of the physical sort.
