Half q century Of pioneer work for the
advancement Of women has made the life
OF Elizabeth Cady Stanton an Inspiration
TO thousands. and an appropriate object
OF homage and congratuiation.
II Is year now since the immense oya-
ton was given 10 Mrs. Stanton al the
Metropolitan Opera House In New YORK
on the anniversary of her Soth year, under
the auspices OF the National Council OF
Women OF the United States.
A recommendation from such brilliant
philosopher. so good a mother, such
great and true woman, Will be needed by
men and women everywhere.
As Mrs. Stanton herself said in reply 10
the many addresses OF affection and devo-
ton from women representing homes all
over the land:
I'm this struggling world men often lean
on the judgment OF mothers and wives.
hence women need clear underst anding

FALKNER'S BIG BLUFF.
He Claims That Bryan Will Be the Next
President and Snatches Figures
from the Air to Substantiate.

Washington, Oct. Ex-senator Faulk-
ner, chairman of the Democratic con-
gressiOnal committee, talked more pos
itively today about the results of the
election than at any time UP to this
point.
"Mr. Bryan will be the next president
of the United States" said he. THE
information that has come to us during
the last week shows that nothing now
can stem the tide that has set in in his
direction. Kentucky is good for 10000
majority, and Maryland, which has tried
a year of Republican rule. will cast
her vote as does Kentucky. West Vir-
gnia will shake off the nightmare Of
two years ago, and redeem herself in
the eyes of the country, both in the
presidential and congressional election.
1t is conceded by everyone that we will
carry everything west of the Missouri
river. and this, with the south, and
the states I have named. gives Mr.. Bry-
an 300 votes, with but four necessary to
elect him. For these four he has the
states of Ohio. Indiana, Illinois, Iowa.
Michigan. Wisconsin and Minnesota to
draw from. Does anyone doubt that he
will get votes in some of these states?
If he carries Illinois we can lose four
of the states / have put In my estimate
and still win; If we carry Michigan and
Indiana we can lose the same number
of states without harm. Minnesota will
elect Lind governor and the same votes
that elect him will under the secret bal
lot, give the state to the Democratic
candidate for president. Michigan is
today safely Democratic. The election
is all over but counting the vote, and !
say to you that Bryan will be the next
president"

MISSOURI TRAIN ROBBERY.
Chicago and Alton No. AZ Is Held Up
by Bandits.

Kansas City. Mo-. Oct. 2S.-Blue cut
between Independence and Glendale,
Mo-. was the scene of another train
robbery at $40 O'Clock this evening.
Chicago and Alton train, No. As. was
held up by four bandits. who compelled
the engineer to use his coal hammer
to break open a small safe. One of the
robbers went through the passenger
cars pretending to take poll while the
others attended to the express messen-
ger, fireman and engineer. 1t is said
the robbers got $4,000, but this is not
substantiated.
This is the second time that a Chi
cago and Alton train has been robbed
in Blue Cut, which was made famous
by a robbery by the James boys. In
spector Flahive, of Kansas City, left
this evening with a posse of eight men
for the place where the robbery occur
red. 1t is about ~ miles from Kansas
City. The train robbed was a fast eX-
press enroute from Chicago to Kansas
City. None of the passengers was mo-
Tested and many of them did not know
a robbery had occurred. The train was
stopped by displaying red flag. Not
a shot was fired. The bandits had Win
chesters and are supposed to have had
horses hitched close at hand.

CURRENCY REPORTS.
First Volume Containing Consular Com.
pilations Is Issued from the Depart.
ment at Washington.

Washington. Oct 23--The secretary
of state sent an instruction to the dip
lOmatic and consular officers of the Uni
ted States July 25 last, directing them
that as lin view of the great popular
| interest in this country in the currency
| question, the experience of other ma
| tionS becomes a matter of immediate
Importance" to prepare report of the
currency of the countries to which they
We're accredited showing among other
! things. the nature of the standard of
value, amount of money in circulation,
/ the effect of the existing currency on
manufacturing industries, rates Of la
Dor. and agricultural products and
prices. 1t was stated that the object
of the department is to set forth the
actual conditions in every country of
the world in order that the people of the
| United States may be accurately in
formed as to the practical effects on in
| duStrial activity, prices of commodities,
| and wages of the various systems of
currency in force.
The department today issude the first
volume consisting of 27O pages of these
reports covering all the reports so far
received, including those of European
and South American countries, Mexico
and Central America. Frederick EN-
ory, chief Of the department bureau
| OF StatlStlCS, WHO Is III CnaTSe OF the
publication, summarizes the report as
follows:
| While 1t is evident, from the many varia-
| tions in prices of the commodities and
rates of wages prevailing during the past
| ten years, as disclosed In detail in the re-
ports. an exact expression Of the general
results cannot be given within the COM
pass of a single table: 1t Is possible to
| group together statements as to the ma
ture Of the currency and the per capita
| circulation and an approximation to the
| general changes In prices and wages-the
| increase or decrease-in each country
| treated Of Two important facts seem to
have been established, viz:
First-That there has been general de-
cline in, the prices of commodities, espe-
| cially in certain raw products throughout
| the world. 1t Is claimed, on the one hand
| that this decline in prices Is due to scare
| ity of money. and on the other hand that
| 1t is to be attributed to progress In inven-
tion and increased production both of raw
| materials and manufacturers, causing
keener competition. with the inevitable
accompaniment Of lower prices. It will lie
| noted that IN Mexico prices have been
steadier for articles which could be most
profitably exported for gold, and that
sharp fluctuations. due to local scarcity
Of product, have occurred in such articles
a. wheat and corn, IN which the prices
