CLOSING PRICES OF BOSTON STOCKS.
Thursday, September 3-p. m.


Considerable irreguarity marked the course
Of stock trading to-day, but final prices showed
small net gains in the majority Of shares a
poor showing by the St. Paul company for the
fourth week in August and by Rock Island for
the month had somewhat depressing effect
in the early trading upon the Western railway
shares. with losses at the opening in ST. Paul.
Burlington and Rock Island of ls02s per cent
from last nights closing, hut subsequent rail-
lies carried prices above the opening. although
at the close they We're again lower The re-
suits of the St Paul company for the fourth
week gave a loss in gross earnings of S162,2S2
from the same week year ago. and loss for
the month Of S13S 619 making loss from July
| in gross earnings Of S11S.3J7. Rock Island
for the month decreased S4II55. Another UNI
favorable factor in the day was the announce
lnent by the Seaboard Air Line of cut In
freight rates to the figures prevailing before
the Port Royal and Augusta Railroad secured
q temporary injunction restraining the Seaboard
Air Line from putting its proposed cut into eff
feet. The injunction WIS recently dismissed,
and the action of the SeabOard Air Line In re-
Stunning cut rates evidently foreshadoWs re-
newal OF the unfortunate rate war in the South.
These factors. however, are not OF SUFFICIENT
weight to have any material influence upon
Wall Street sentiment, which is constantly
broadening and growing optimistic under the
effect Of the Improvement in the political and
financial situations.
London quotations came in lower. and caDle
reports showed a disposition by foreigners TO
take profits in Americans. On the local TN
change there was considerable realizing, but
no pressure to sell. and commission houses re-
ported an increased inclination by their GUS
toners TO come into the market. More gold was
taken from the Bank of England for shipment
here and the sterling exchange market showed
a further tendency toward ease. The l<ank OF

SITUATION IN THE rRAxsvAAL.

The Transvaal situation continues
to occupy first place in point Of inter-
est in foreign affairs. Now that Dr.
Jamesons coup is a thing Of the past,
and Emperor Williams frebrand-in
the form OF his personal dispatch to
President Kruger, congratulating him
on the prompt and efficient manner in
which he had met and expelled from
his territory the invading host of Brit
ishers-has done its work in stirring
for a moment the war spirit of Eng
land, we may expect that attention
will be directed to the Complaints of
the foreigners inhabiting the Trans
vaal, which has been the pretext and
cause of all the trouble.
The inhabitants Of the Transvaal
who are allowed to take part as voters
or Office holders in the South African
Republic are divided into two classes
of burghers. Under the constitution
and amendments up to 1894, first class
burghers comprise all male whites resi-
dent in the republic before May, 1876.
or those white male inhabitants who
took an active part in the war of in
dependence in 1881, and their children
from the age of sixteen. Second class
burghers comprise the naturalized male
alien population and their children
from the age Of sixteen. These second

GEORGE q. CANNON A REPUBLICAN

In the near past in Utah there has
been some question as to the politics
of Mr.. George Q. Cannon. That ques-
ton has been forever settled by Presi-
dent of the State Senate George NJ.
Cannon, chairman of the Republican
party of Utah, and nephew of George
Q. Cannon. Asked if Mr.. George @.
Cannon was Republican he answer
ed:
That depends on what constitutes
Republicanism. If man who believes
in the protective policy and bounties,
who stands for a government by the
people strong enough to protect It's
own subjects, in contradistinction to
the states rights theories of the Dem
ocracy, who has lifted his voice re-
peatedly in favor of Republican doc
trines, and whenever he has spoken on
political questions has taken the Re
publican side, who has contributed lib
orally of his own personal means to aid
the Republican cause-if such a man
is Republican, then George @. Cannon
is one, for he has done all this and
more, to my certain knowledge.

JUDGE JOHN a. MARSHALL.

The president has made no mistake
in the nomination of John A Marshall
to the highly important position of
United States district judge This is a
life position, and one for which the
best lawyers have always contended.
That the nominee will fill the position
conformably to the highest precedents
cannot be doubted. Of those citizens of
Utah who are best able to judge Of his
qualifications, the members of the bar
Judge Marshall was the overwhelming
choice. By them, his intimate profess
sional associates, he is regarded as
lacking in no qualification necessary to
the high office, either in point of abil-
ity, learning, temperament or integri-
ty. Judge Marshall will administer JUS
tice with an even hand, free from pre-
JUDGE or favor. The citizens of Utah
may depend upon it, that all litigants,
be they rich or poor, corporate or in
dividual. will have their causes heard
and decided according to law, free
from all improper influences. We con-
graduate the president on his choice,
and Judge Marshall on his appoint
ment.
That many good men have been de-
feated in the race for the Office was
inevitable. That Democratic war horse,
Judge Judd, failed in the main effort,
but received a vote of presidential con-
fidence in the shape of nomination
de noYo, for the district attorneyship.
Mr. Brigham continues also as mar
shall. These are both efficient and
tried officers and their appointment
will be received with satisfaction.

THE FLYING SQUADRON.

What the destination of the Eng
nsh flying squadron is no one outside
of the British admiralty Office seems
to know, but the promptness with
which it was made ready for sea chal-
lenges admiration 1t was prepared
in less time than would ordinarily be
considered necessary to place a regi-
ment of soldiers in the field. Had it
been deemed advisable, the admiralty
authorities could have placed half a
dozen such squadrons in readiness in
the same length of time. 1t all shows
wonderful efficiency and great re-
sources.
For the past month there has been a
great deal of war talk in the United
States, and it has been of war with
England. The country has the inner
ent resources to carry on a great war,
but they are not Immediately available.
The government owns a number of
monitors that can be utilized in a case
of necessity. But they are not ready.
Instead of the navy department issu-
ing orders to place them in readiness
for active service an inquiry was or
dered to ascertain how soon they could
be got ready How different from the
English way of doing the thing, and
how greatly inferior These monitors
would be almost invaluable in case of
war, if available for immediate SER
vice Modern wars are fought and
the fate of nations decided in the time
it would take to get them ready. They
should be ready all the time A ma
TONS power to avail itself instantly
of it's naval resources makes those re-
sources doubly effective. England sets
the United States a good example in
this respect. Let US follow it.
The Salt Lake herald. [volume] (Salt Lake City [Utah]) 1870-1909, 1896-01-14

The Ogden Evening Press is some
what alarmed over the fact that The
Herald is willing that the Republican
legislature should elect George @. Can
non a United States senator from
Utah, and gravely takes us to task in
a column article for what it believes
to be our party immortality in being
willing that Republicans should elect
a man for United States senator whom
the Press thinks is mugwump. The
Press is answered this morning by
what may be regarded as the formal
announcement of the Elder Cannon S
Republicanism.
