THE CAUSE.

A Democratic organ warns tariff re-
formers not to claim that the improved
prices for wool and woolens are due to
the tariff, as the advantage may be tenn
porary. 1t is good advice. The organ
then proceeds to show that the price of
woods has been declining for years.
which 1T attributes to the appreciation
Of gold in part. but not wholly. 1t
quotes prices of average Ohio medium
washed fleece from 1872 to 1894. In 1872
the price was 20 cents a pound. but the
Democratic editor forgets to deduct II
per cent. for the difference between
coin and paper, which. being done, would
make the coin price about 61h cents.
He also remarks hat the fall in the
price of wool from 1874 to 1884 was Is
cents. Here again liz per cent, the
difference between coin and paper,
should be deducted, which would reduce
the price Of 1874 to less than 4S cents.
Wool fell in 1884 because of a reduction
of about 20 per cent. in the duties in
1883. The fall Of IA cents a pound which
the Democratic editor notes from 1884 to
1894 is largely due to the putting of
wool upon the free list. Free wool was
certain to come as soon as the result of
the election of November, 1892, was
known. Now our prices are practically
the prices of Liverpool. whereas, the
same grades were higher in this coun-
try by a large part of the tariff duty.
The loss of twelve cents between 1892
and 1894 is chiefly the result of putting
wool on the free list.
The gradual fall in the price of woods
for twenty-five years is the result of a
much more direct influence than the as
sumption of the appreciation of gold,
namely, he rapid increase in produc-
ton as the following figures show:
Year. Worlds wool clip.
1860 1,l0S, 600, 900 lbs
1880 1855, O00. 900 lbs
1887 2.21S, 600. 600 lbs
1894 1852, 1885, coo lbs
In fourteen years the worlds wool clip
has increased 80 per cent, and in the
last seven years over Il per cent. Mar
ket reports the past two years have in
dictated a supply in excess of the de-
mand, due in part to a falling off in the
demand. This season there is an I'M
usual activity in the demand for wooden
goods to replenish the low stocks in
this country. But the cause of the fall
in price is explained by the increased
supply at a low cost of production Incl
den to the encouragement offered by
the Australian government to wool
growing and the cheap lands of South
America, coupled with much cheaper
ocean transportation, due. in turn, to a
| competition stimulated by such govern
ments as France and Germany.

LIEUTENANT PEARY's PLANS. .
He will Probably Return to Pleasantdaie
Again Before His Leave Expires-In
New York Now.

Lieutenant Peary with Mrs. Peary have
gone to New York, where he will remain
few weeks preparing articles for the
New York Sun and arranging for the
museums the specimens which he has
collected. After this work has been done
he will probably return to Pleasantdale
for a short visit.
In November Lieut. Peary's leave Of
absence will expire and he must return to
his du ties as civil engineer in the Navy.
Officers in this service hold the same
position relatively to the navy that the
engineer corps does to the army. But
the engineer corps of the army is recruited
from the best scholars ut West Point,
while the civil engineers of the navy are
taken from civil life, and not from An
napolis.
During his stay in the polar regions
Lieutenant Peary has had leave of abb
sence, with leave pay, which has amount
ed to about $175 month. 1t has hereto
fore been very common to grant these
leaves to officers, and Peary had leave
of two yearsson a former occasion when
he went on the Nicaragua Canal survey.
But recently the government has decided
to grant no more leaves Of absence.
While Lieutenant Peary feels now that
he wants no more Of the arctic regions,
his intimate friends feel that if a good
opportunity should come, he would De
tempted to GO again.
He will probably be able to lecture some
after he resumes his duties with the navy,
as his station is always ashore. He was
at Philadelphia before he took his leave
of absence; and will probably be in some
large eastern city again.
The positions in the civil engineer corps
of the navy must be quite difficult to get,
considering the fact that there were about
300 other applicants when Peary obtained
his position.

BEHRING'S BRIDGE.
Last of One of the Oldest Landmarks of
Portland.

Work is now going on removing for
ever one of the historic landmarks OF
Portland, behring's Bridge The growth
of the, city in that direction, and the
various changes brought about by the ex-
pansion of the business of the Portland &
Rochester and Portland Railroad compan-
les, has gradually filled up the old creek
until bridge is now no longer necessary.
The large sewer now takes all the dis
charge at that point, and the planks OF
the bridge are being taken up and the
space beneath is receiving filling of
earth.
Within the memory of many people
there has been tide mill at the Bridge,
and the smelt fishing there is thing of
yesterday almost.
The shrinking of the creek has been
going on for years Anciently it was
quite stream, SO deep at the point near
the bridge that it was called river and
could be crossed with difficulty.
1t was in 1889 that Captain Church had
his great battle with the Indians along
this creek and on the slopes of what is
now the property of Henry Deering and
of Wescott Conant.
About seven hundred Indians, led by
French officers, had assembled to sack
Portland.
In the course of the battle it became
necessary to send ammunition across the
creek, and Massachusetts, Indian who
was fighting with Church, Captain Light
foot by name, waded the creek, carrying

bullets in each hand.
