MISSIONARIES OF COMMERCE..

Representatives of the National Associa-
ton of Manufacturers, among them being
some of the best known business men Of
the United States, left New York day
or two ago, via Europe, for South America,
where they will endeavor to impress upon
the people Of those republics, especially
Brazil, Argentina, and Uruguay, the ad-
vantage of closer commercial relations with
our own. It may be remarked, paren-
thetically, that the South Americans may
wonder why these gentlemen bent upon
demonstrating the dcsirability. Of closer
commercial intercourse with the United
States should have gone by way Of Europe
instead of direct in an American line Of
steamships. But let that pass. They
may have had personal and businessreasons
for taking the more circuitous route.
1t is an anomalous condition Of things
that the ira de of our neighbors, as 1t were
peoples living on the same continent with
US should be controlled by nations sepa-

rated from them by the broad expanse
OF the ocean. England, Germany, and
France, especially the two first named,
almost monopolize the Commerce of the
South American republics. We have
not thought it worth our while to culti-
vate trade relations with them to any
considerable extent, and the first i'm
portant movement in that direction-the
reciprocity clause of the Mckinley tariff
law-was killed in the Wilson act before
it could operate with advantageous re-
suits.
The fact is our people have but an imper-
feet idea of the resources of the South
American countries, of the great variety
of their natural products, nd of the
almost uni United field they offer for
industrial enterprise. These facts will
become impressed upon the visiting m anu
facturers, and what they see will be an
object lesson which cannot fail but result
teneficially to the United States as well
as tothe republics of South America.

to explain how the further of silver would in
its bullion value That experiment wastred under
the Sherman act, when $50 tons of bullion silver were
purchased by the government each month in effort to
maintain the market price of silver But in spite of that

1t is easy assert what free silver would would
not do for the country but when evidence that would
prove disastrous easily obtained the public should
not give weight to the bombastic declarations of silver
leaders, 1t is knowledge that when attempt
is made to confer legal tender power two kinds of
metallic money by legislative act the metal having the
highest market value will go to premium This change

For the sake of the argument let suppose the cleo

element The first calamity to be met would be the loss
of gold and consequent contraction of currency

The next disaster would be a money stringency and

indebtedness and pay employees. Banks would refuse
credit and of unrest distress and suffering would

expected from exaggerated financial disturbance
and the worst sufferers from such terrible misfortune
would be the working people thrown out of employment

Broke Open Fres@ht Car where
Esrt4ctsvgs Were Concealed.

For the past month freight cars on the
Erie Railroad at West End have been
broken into and robbed OF valuable ar
ticies The officials of the road have
put extra detectives upon the already
good sized force, but still they have failed
TO capture any OF the thteves-
Things got TO such a pass that the
company decided that something des-
perate must be done 10 put 8 stop to the
continued looting of the cars, so a con-
ference was he'd with several of their
hest detectives. A novel plan was re-
solved upon. 1t was that a couple of
nsen should be locked up in one of the
ears. in a suburban town. and be brought
into West End with the regular train.
Accordingly Special officers Brown and
Hare were sealed up in one of the cars

EAST JERSEYS BILL
What the Temporary Water
Supply Has Cost the
City So Far.
BIG DEDUCTION MADE
Average Price of the Pequannock
Supply is s19.94 Per
Million Gallons.

The East Jersey Water Company today
presented to the Board of Street and
Water Commissioners its bill for water
delivered from January 10 to June "a
The total amount IS 2.24s.S million gal
lens, which at the contract prices amounts
to sss.655.46- The company. however. IN
view OF the disappointment in the carry
ing capacity Of the pipe when the water
WIS turned on. gave the city free water
half price until a daily average OF over
20 millions was reached. This deduction
amounts to 81. 1880, leaving the net
amount of the bill presented today s4s
Ssl 30. This is an average price OF about
$40 81 per million gallons, or. less than
the cost Of pumping Passa!c water at
Believille. T amounts to one cent for
sixteen barrels of water.
The East Jersey Water Companyss
monthly deliveries from january 10 10
June 80 were as follows
January, 20S.1 million gallons, or o.
February. sO3.e million gallons. or 1914
March s57-5 million gallons, o. li-5
April SIS: million gallons. Or 1872
Nay. % million Assllons. Or 1s daily
June. ssa.2 milton gallons, Or Il daily
average.
The Tow of water has been reEarkably
Uniform since the supply was brought
up above 20 millions on May 81 Except
on three days when new gates were
being put in at the intake gate housey
the dow has never fallen below 20.2
millions, and the largest daily delivery
has been 23.7 millions, the average being
n millions of gallons.
Few people appreciate how vast the
quantity OF water that city uses.
Twenty-one million gallons is about 2S00.
COO cubic teet If this were put in a tank
2g9 feet wide and 400 feet long, the size
of an ordinary city block. the water would
stand So feet deep in the tank This is
the quantity daily received Of the Pc
Quannoek water, besides q small GUAM
tity pumped at BelleviIle
The flow OF Pequannoek water will soon
still further increase with the extension
of the new main to Belleville but with
the growing paramount demands OF
Newark. the supply will even then prob
ably be somewhat short Of the entire
needs of Jersey City, and on days Of ex
eessive heat or cold some pumping at
BelleviIe must stiH be done. The East
jersey Water Company offered on June
s to reinforce the supply by adding tne
small additional quantity needed from,
the upper Passaic at Little Fails. thus
doing away entirely with the pumping
at BeileviIle. but the city has taken no
action on the companyss offer.

william Duffy, who were tried in the
Gfneral Sessions Court yesterday after
npon for running a pool room IN Scott's
saloon IN West Newark avenue, We're
acouitted. Allan Il. MeDermott, who
defended them. argued that no evidence
had been produced to show that pools
were being sold in the place. The States
witnesses had seen blaclz5oards up and
Collins and othors carrying on what
seemed to them to be pool business,
but they had NOT bought any pools nor
Invested any money. A telegraph or
telephone message had come in announc-
ing They're on. but there was no evil
dence that Pr. Scuddes did not sehd that
message. The defendants were not put
