BIG JUMP IN THE PRICE or OIL
Wen, From ST 20 to ST 40 and Re
manned at the Latter Figure.

Pittsburg. April 9.-Oil took another
squirt today and at noon the price had
jumped to $40 This is the highest mar
ket price since 1882 At the opening Stand
ard advanced the price for cash oil Z
cents by offering $1.27 on exchange. May
options opened at S1.29 and rapidly adj
vanced to S1.4O and remained at that.
according to the last monthly report there
are only 565 certificates for 1000 barrels
Zach outstanding, and a Pittsburg firm
owns half Of them. The main reason for
the advance is that producers are not
selling direct to the Standard. but are
putting their oil into the pipe lines and
taking out certificates, thus making on
them the difference between the cash price
and speculative figures.

When the Emapcipated Woman came
Icious meal awaiting her. Her husbands
biscuits had never been lighter and fiaki-
er; the coffee had never been SO fragrant
in aroma, SO delicious to the taste; the
beefsteak was broiled just as she liked
it, and if was as tender as the affection
of her own tender and loving husband.
"Ahr" She said, as She laid aside the
napkin and prepared to leave the table,
"a breakfast like this fortifies one for
the days duties. Now a good, sweet
goodbye kiss from my dear husband,
and l am gone
He put his arm about her neck and
looked up into her face as she kissed him,
and then he cooed:
my beloved, / Just adore you! Oh,
why do you have TO go to the horrid Of
flee? Why can't you stay here at home
with ME, where / can look upon your sweet
face and feel your kisses upon my lips?"
The Enlancipated Woman smiled an in
dulgent smile as she replied:
THAT would be very Dice, but life is
something more than hugs and kisses, you
know. i must go and perform my part in
the great world of business, while my dear
little husbsuc, in his sheltered home nest,

A VICTORY FOR THE PUBLIC.

The apparent surrender of the Trolley
Trust to stop the hesuitagainst Incorporation
by The Times, and the pledge to remove
its poles from New York avenue within
ten days must be regarded as great vic
tory for the public. There can be no doubt
of this. But there is good reason TO suspect
the sincerity of the trust, aud that its
promise to the Commissioners will not be
kept Already petitions are being circn-
lated requesting the Commissioners 10
put an end to further prosecution, and IL
sufficient sentiment 10 influence the Com
missioners in favor, of retaining the poles
can be manufactured they viii stand until
a legal postponemeut can be obtained from
Congress. -
On the contrary, IL the poles are re-
moved, according to agreement, The Times
has achieved a victory for which the public
viii be grateful. From the day the law
ordering the poles down went into effect.
the Trolley Trust has fought for delay.
and the mystery of the controversy is
that when the authorities had won their
suit and Judge Cox decided that the
Commissioners had power to enforce the
law, all further prosecution was aban-
doned.
1t was this suspension Of proceedings
that led The Times to begin its suit against
the Trolley Trust, and it was The Times
prosecution that changed the aspect OF
affairs and showed the trust that il was
dealing with some one besides the Com
missioners- As result the trust has gone
on record, through its attorney, as prom
ising to obey the law within ten days.
but it is doubtful if the poles will be re-
moved within that time. Ten days is not
long TO wait, however, and the question
of the sincerity of the promise eau then be
decided.

The Cuban War.

Editor Times: l notice that The Times
is always ready to sympathize with the
weak and oppressed. Thus it reflects the
generous spirit of great people. As this
government was finally established by seven
years of war against the oppressor, so is
Cuba now in the throes of a fierce contest
to shake off the calling yoke of Spain.
The bloodtbirstiness Of the Spanish SOL
dicr IL proverbial, and the baug ughtiness
and cruelty of her civil rulers is into cradle.
Yet Cuba has perforce tolerated buth for
400 years. Iciip the following from the asst
issue of the New York Evangelist, staid
old Presbyterian weekly, very careful 10
publish nothing but the truth.
Here is a touch of darker tone on the
seemingly hopeless yet fierce endeavor of
Spain to hold Cuba in subiection. Spain is
still wrestling with the Cuban insurgents.
Thirty thousand more soldiers are to be sent
TO Cuba before the Goth of September, and
$4,000 are TO be held in readiness to send
out in October. Already Spain has spent
S25,OoO.0O0 or $30,000,O0 and by the
time the war is over the expenses will
hardly fall short of S5O,OOO,O0O. The
Spaniards are not generous or gentle
tasEmasters. Recently they captured a
hospital in which We're seventy-fou rebels
wounded and sick. These they slew to a
man. Nothing so atrucious as this has for
many years darkened the history of a
Christian power"

OTHER PEOPLES OPINIONS.
"Broken Pin Removed ;,

Editor Times: l desire to make a states
ment in regard to the case OF Horace White,
OF No. 81 Myrtle street northeast. who
was injured by hat pin a few days ago.
The Morning Times stated yesterday that
Drs. Kilgore and Mackey were called in
and examined the peculiar injury, but
were afraid 10 cut into the flesh to remove
the substance, and left it to await de-
yelopments.
The truth of the case is, that DR.. Kilgore
calledm me in consultation. Wegavethepatient
ether, and made deep incisions INTO the
flesh, locating the pin without difficulty,
bot were unable TO remove it at the time,
on account of the muscular action which
carried it up into the arInpit where numer-
Gus large arteries exist.
The facilities for operating were so bad,
and the crowding around the patient by
the family and friends was so great,
that We decided to postpone further inter
ference until the following day.
The next day the pin had worked its
way down to the opening DR.. Kjlgore and
had made and was then removed without
difficulty.
The operation was very simple one,
and with the proper facilities, could have
been performed successfully by a first
year student of medicine.

Brnlse the Solitude.

II solitude is 10 be found anywhere II is

for trout, sat down to rest on log in

THE GREATEST OF THE GREAT

The claim Of the Philadelphia Times that
SIR. Cleveland will go into history as tbs
greatest of American Presidents sounds like
the piping OF a mugwump jackdaw. The
official acts upon which the Times bases its
claim are President Cleveland's defiant
declaration to a Congress that was un-
willing 10 maintain our national credit
and his equally heroic declaration when
the spirit of the anarchist entered into the
industrial strikes at Chicago"
A majority OF the voters Of the United
States believe that President Cleveland was
wrong when he. refused TO sign the
seigniorage bill, and more than half the
prominent men Of his party declares that this
concession would have prevented the Demo
cratic fight over the silver question. 1t
may be that President CleveIand's firm
stand against silver coinage except as a sub
sidiary money has saved the country from
resolving itself into congiomerated mess
OF financial trouble, but at least half its
people do not think SO nor do they reg ardhim
as a modern hero.
In the eyes of the corporate world Presi-
dent Cleveland is a sort of Midlothian
Idol His sending troops to Chicago TO estab=
lish a precedent against the use OF organized
tabor 10 promote strikes was to corporations
that atempioy large numbers sofmenafavorthat
entities him to their everlasting alteration.
9ut what about tue masses, the men onwhose
nects this precedent placed the corporation
yoke? Perhaps they Will answer should the
third term movement prevail.
When the cuckoo sentiment shall have
died out and sober thought prevails his
tory will give Mr.. Cleveland his true place
among public men. He viii not rank with
Washington, Lincoln, Grant, Jefferson,
Jackson. Adams, or any of the great patriots
whose unselfish acts have earned American
gratitude. But underneath his name will
appear a record OF an enormous wealth
acquired while acting as Chief Magistrate OF
agovernment o ofthe people.
