The Democratic party has always
been claiming to favor an extension OF
our foreign commerce, yet 1t is bitterly
opposed to subsidizing mail steamship
lines These two attitudes are incon.
sistent. If we are to promote our for.
eign trade, the first requisite is the
quickest possible mail communication
The free trade party has howled long
and loud because the ocean carrying
trade Is "usurped /" by foreign nations
yet ignores the fact that the great
commercial nations OF the world, ex.
cepting our own. all pay heavy sub.
sides. The president of the Institu.
tion OF Engineers and shipbullders In
Scotland, in his inaugural address a
few weeks ago, stated that the total
sum Of annual subsidies paid by Great
Britain, France, Germany, Russia, and
italy is $16,O57,S65, of which Great Brit.
ain pays nearly 20 per cent.

A majority Of the United States SEN

San Domingo. fllled up with more or

is wholly absurd for anybody to think
that the American people are going to
put up with the silver currency when

found Il impracticable. The only men
honestly and wisely friendly to silver
are those who want to maintain gold

NEW YORK, Nov. 15.-Today's
stock speculation was not especially
interesting. The movement of prices
was narrow as a rule. and trading was
at times stagnant. The market opened
duh, with changes in lower direction.
A firm tone soon developed in some
OF the tding shares. The closing was
duh and as a result of the days bust
mess light fractional gains appear in
a number of instances.
During the week Pacific Mail has
been favorably Influenced by the re-
ported reconsideration by that compa-
my of the terms offered by the Pana-
MA railroad interests for an alliance.
Bearing on the general financial out
look is the unchanged trade condi-
tions which have compelled this week S
gold exports and the attitude of foreign
investors and spectators toward our
securities. Briefly the cause of the ex-
portation Of gold at the present time
is that our exports of merchandise
have remained almost stationary. while
our imports show q, heavy increase.
The speculation in bonds today was
dull and without feature. The trans
actions footed up $694,0O0, and were
made at slight concessions on the
prices There was a moderate in
crease In the volume of business for
the week and a strong tone character
szed the market. The net results are
in mos cases substantial gains. OF

THIRTY NEGRO BACHELORS.
They Dwell Amicably Together in
nm Ancient Pennsylvania Town.

No one passing along Germantown
avenue, where it crosses Broad street,
can fail to observe the dilapidated old
building which stands some distance
back from the street on the southwest
corner of Broad street and German
town avenue. The house presents a
striking appearance on account OF its
pretentiousness. It is built of stone,
three stories in height, with a wide
spreading porch extending the full
length Of the building and carried
around on the side.
The old mansion was built between
seventy-f1ve and one hundred years
ago for inn purposes. From the time
of it's erection and for forty or fifty
years afterward it was the only hos
telry between the city proper and Ger
mantown, and consequently a very
popular roadhouse. It's convenience to
Broad street made il one of the great
est resorts of the old times for sleigh
ing parties from the city, who would
drive out there on cold winter even
ings for a good supper and some thing
hot and strong to quench the thirst
and warm the inner man.
Several years ago the property was
purchased by T. G. Palmer and George
A Rice for sos, 1000 1t was given out
at the time that Messrs. Palmer and
Rice intended to construct a large
mandatory on the property, but up
to the present date this has not been
done, and the house is now occupied
by about thirty young colored men,
who have formed kind of community
among themselves in this old building.
These men rent the rooms separately
from the owners Of the property
Nome club together to pay this rent,
three or four living in one room while
others who are more prosperous pay
for room for themselves. The men
are all employed in various occupa-
lions in the vicinity of the building
where they reside, and the majority of
them earn good wages. If one happens
TO get out of work, if popular with
the rest he is usually assisted by the
crowd to pay his board until he can
secure work again, when he is ex-
pected to reimburse those who have
helped him.
AS a rule tie cooking for the crowd
is done by one man. who is delegated
by lot or some such arrangement to
COOK for the household for a week.
Among the appointments of the house
IS chapel. where service is held every
Sunday, colored preacher being
brought forth from the city for that
purpose. There is a barber shop also
IN the house and an oyster sa;oon
where the men, when particuIar iv
Husn, can regale themselves on 2 stew

CHICAGO GENERAL MARKET

Chicago, Nov. 16.-Wheat started
in with several brisk trades at $3.50
5715. a trifle over yesterdays close
Everything seemed to promise well,
weather crop reports, ETC., but after a
short season of sharp trades things
eased UP again. There were no note
worthy individual trades aside from
those Of Brosseau, of st. Louis, who
began at the start to cover briskly but,
after finding that he could get all he
wanted, commenced to sell as rapidly
as he had bought. Many small trad
ers took the cue from him and as a
result December, which had started to
climb, went down again and closed at
79s@5714, with the feeling fairly
steady.
Corn trade was very light, but No.
vember and December f1uctuated "a,
closing at the bottom price.
May oats sold and closed the same
as yesterday, 205s.
The price of provisions got on a
dead centre and today's closing prices
are Identical with those of yesterday
The leading futures were as fonows.

FOREIGN FINANCES.

New York, Nov 16-The Evening
Posts London financial cablegram
says:
The stock market was quiet and ir-
regular today and slightly higher at
the close. Five more failures were an
nounced. one fairly large. Americans
were dull on the failures and on gold

Five million sterling was formally

Japanese account here. Money rates
are harder and unless the Japanese
money comes on the markets rates will
probably be steady.
