Kipling on England's Colonies

Rudyard Kipling has contributed to
to Mr.. Beckles Wilson's "The Tenth ISL
and: an Account of Newfoundland" a
highly characteristic letter. 1t Is in
answer to a remonstrance addressed to
him because he made no mention Of
Newfoundland in his "Song of the Eng
lish." He says: "* Indeed, I
am not unmindful of Newfoundland.
Perhaps I may know more about 1t
than you think, and certainly no man
in his senses ever doubted the loyalty
of the senior colony. We can leave that,
I think, to the Yankees, who seem to
take comfort from inventing serious fic-
tions of that nature. But we
will make bargain: will put four
line verse among The Song of the Cities
II you, on your part, will drop, and will
influence other people to drop, illusions
to the loyalty Of the colonies In the
first place, dislike the word Colonies
and if you will look through my verses,
you will find very seldom use 1t. It il
out of date and misleading, besides be-
ing provincial. In the second place,
there is no need to talk of loyalty among
white men-that is to say races speak
ing the English tongue, with a high
birth rate and a low murder rate, liv-
ing quietly under laws which are neither
bought nor sold. That is one of the
things we all take for granted-because
the empire is Us, We Ourselves-and for
the white man to explain that he is
loyal is about as unnecessary as for q
respectable woman to volunteer the fact
that she is chaste. Elk.

Chicago Live Stock

CHICAGO, Nov. S.-Trading in cattle was
slow during the morning but became fairly
animated later with prices ruling barely
steady TO 10c lower. Strictly prime cattle
were not offering very freely. Prices ruled
ais follows:
Good to extra steers, 4.609525; common
grades, 3.S5G4.55; stockers and feeders, 300
@4.50; bulls, COWS and heifers, 2.O00450:
good calves, 6.25I700: Texans, SsO@S 80;
westerns, 3.4004.25. The bulk of the sales
were at 4.4044.90.
Prices ruled strong for hogs at an ad-
vance of about &c on the last weeks clos
ing figures. The greater part of the hogs
crossed the scale at 3y55Gl3.70, choice heavy
packers selling at 3.40@35O and the best ba-
con lots at 3.75I3.S0; choice hogs of different
weights sold close together and pigs sold
chiefly at 3.4O13.65. The average was fairly
good. The market was weak, packers SELL
ing little lower.
There was good demand for sheep and
lambs and q stronger market Sheep were
wanted at 2.5043.OO for the poorest to 400
4.50 for prime natives, while western rang
ers' f1ocks changed ownership at 3.O0G4 So.
Lambs sold actively at 4.0O@5.75 for poor
to prime lots, feeders paying 4.75d4.9O for
lamos and SS5@4.0O for sheep.

European Markets

NEW YORK, Nov. s-The Evening
Posts London financial cablegram says:
The stock markets were quiet and irreg-
ular today. Consols were firm because of
easier rates and shortness of stock. Con-
tangoes on mines are about the s:o1e as
the previous settlement. Kaffirs were
weak Australians were good. The gen.
eral settlement to begin tomorrow will
probably be small affair, with slightly
easier money. Gold is in strong demand
for the continent. India is .also buying
moderately, but at present net on ex-
change operations, but merely to supply
the usual demand for the bazaars.
Americans opened steadier on the rise
In New York, followed by small and feeble
purchases here. Then New York began to
sell and the market dropped, closing fiat
few more such days will probably en-
tirely exhause the patience of such few
bulls as exist here. Brazils were fiat.
Grand Trunks were strong on reports
that negotiations were proceeding favora-
bly, in arranging new freight route with
the Wabash system over the loop line of
the old Great Western company and via
the New York, Ontario and Western to
New York.
The Paris and Berlin markets were quiet.
am assured on fairly good authority that
1t is possible that the reichsbank may
make no. further change in the rate this
year.

What Was Done Yesterday on Wall
Street

NEW YORK. Nov. S-Priccs of stocks
iiuctuated very widely and very easily,
traversing range up and down many
times In the course of the day. This indI-
Gated a feverish tone of speculation. Ar
rangements to dispose of holdings on a.
slight intimation OF possible unfavorable
developments. and an equally nervous anx-
lety on the part of short sellers to cover
their contracts ON any appearance of har-
dening tendency in the market were appar-
ent. The most formidable event in the
days happenings, so far as any effect on
Values was concerned, was the further
postponement of the announcement of the
supreme court decision in the Nebraska
maximum freight rate case, which was
confidently expected today. There has
been assurance felt in Wall street that
the verdict would be favorable to the rail.
roads, and even If a favorable verdict had
been announced today. profit takings would
probably have led to declines in the stocks
affected. But the news of the postpone
ment led to rumors that the verdict would
In fact affirm the validity of the contested
statutes. This rumor induced much SELL
ing. Special weakness was inducted also
into the coalers by the very discouraging
reports of the condition of that industry,
due to overnroduction. cutting of prices,
and tho persistent mild weather. There
was no lacking to the Spanish war scare,
which was made to do duty today. These
demoralizing factors did not begin to be
felt until some slight improvement over
Saturdays had been effected In prices SUI
gar leading the way.
There was a notable improvement, also,
from the low point before the close of the
day, due to covering of shorts and on q
supreme court decision against the inter-
state commerce commission as to the reg
ulation of rates under the long and short
haul clause, where water rates are IN COM

Tennyson Lived Long

The bibbers Of wine and the smokers
of pipes may take comfort from Tenny-
son. The poet lived to be S3, and he kept
his intellectual powers and his poetical
faculties absolutely undimmed to the
close. And Tennyson was assuredly no
ascetic. He tried vegetarianism once to
oblige Edward Fitzgerald, and gave 1t
up after a few weeks. He liked his pint
of port and smoked steadily and per-
sistently. Indeed, he was unhappy IL he
were asked to stay in house where he
was not allowed his pipe at all times. But
longevity and vigor in old age have
probably much more to do with a mans
inherited constitution than his habits.
Tennyson was one of family Of twelve,
nearly all Of whom lived to be over 70.
AS poor Emily Tennyson, the betrothed
of Arthur Hallam. said: ''The Tenny-
son don't die. e."-St. James Gasette.

THE INVESTOR
A.

duction Is the largest ever known, which
causes prices to yield little, but the out
look Is for higher quotations with the new
year. Wheat has been unsteady In all
markets and the early quotations for cot
ton were not sustained The wool market
was surprise. The heavy importations
just before the new tariff law went into
effect did not produce the expected glut In
the market. and woolen goods remained
firm. Foreign trade continues to show the
balance in our favor. In our immediate
district reports from the growing crops
continue good. The early oranges are col
oring well and good prices are offered for
the holiday trade. Tho outlook for lemons
Is better than for some time. The new
crop of beans makes this market a little
easier. but as the crop is reported to be
20 per cent less than last year and the de-
mand is heavy. 1t is likely prices will not
strike the down grade. The sugar cam
paign closes this year with &c, 0O0. 900 pounds
OF sugar to its credit. The yield In celery
promises again to be heavy, probably 500
carloads. The dried fruit market remains
almost at standstill. A slight improve
ment Is noted in prunes and apples. Nuts
are moving we'll. The prices set by the wal
nut association were held, with the excep-
tfon OF half a cent concession In softshells.
Early rains injured raisins In the field.
and the crop is not likely to exceed, even
II 1t equals in quantity that of last year.
The pack Of the canncries, which is the
largest in the history OF Southern Califor-
mia. has been mostly disposed of at good
prices. Collections are better than for
some time past. Real estate is more ac-
tive. Our products are being marketed at
good prices. and the effect is already ap-
parent The coming tourist season will
