INMAN'S ICE CRUSHERS.
Duluth Man Exploits His Scheme in
Cleveland.

CLEVELAND, O.. March 2s.-Capt B. B.
Inman, Of Duluth, is in the city, consulting
with vesselmen concerning the construction Of
two unique vessels which he expects to have
built this summer. They VIII be high-pow-
cred ice breakers, constructed forward like
rams, so as to force a passage through the
heavy ice by forcing the frozen masses up
the common method. He says this style Of
boat will go through the heaviest ice, and
his intention is to run the two new boats all
next winter from Cleveland and Buffalo to
Duluth and return. If this experiment
proves a success there will be navigation every
winter on the great lakes, and lake commerce
will be revolutonized.

1t is perfectly plain that our immense pur-
chases OF wool in London will start flow of
gold from New York to England. When the
balance of trade is against Us money must
flow away from us.
The Minneapolis Journal reprints
these consecutive paragraphs from the
G o and says: 1.-The G o e must
have lots Of fun with itself trying to
maintain a show Of consistency in
favor Of free trade, but this instance is
evidence that 1t is a hard job" We
judge from this that the Journal can
not find wherein these two items are
consistent with each other, and so we
think it proper to fit it with a pair Of
spectacles that will lengthen it's vision
to a point at least in front of it's nose.
Enormous amounts of raw wool are
now being purchased abroad in antici-
patton Of the forthcoming high duty.
Manufacturers who must have grades
of wool not grown in this country to
mix with the domestic product are
placing their orders in vast quantities
and hurrying the imports into this
country in order that they may obtain
them while wool is on the free list 1t
is equally true that the purchases must
be paid for in gold, and that this will,
temporarily at least, reverse the bal
ance of trade and start a gold move
ment away from this country.
If anybody imagines that the do
mestic manufacturer is going to charge
the old price for wooden goods simply
because the articles themselves are
made from wool that paid no duty,
after tariff is in effect that will en-
able him to charge more, he is a poor
judge of human nature in general and
manufacturers nature in particular
The wool suit that cost $25 last year
will cost $40 this just the same, whether
the wool out Of which it is made pays
large duty or none. The domestic
manufacturer fixes. his price. not ac-
cording to cost Of production, but ac-
cording to market conditions After a
tariff has gone into effect that will
raise the price of wooden goods by a
certain amount the manufacturer of
wooden goods will add that amount to
his price on goods in stock, as well as
those still to be manufactured; and on
those manufactured from wool that
came in free, the same as those made
from wool that paid duty.
We have had experience enough on
these lines in the past not to be in any
doubt about that proposition. An
nouncements that prices will be raised
have already been sent out and the
manufacturers are rushing wool into
the country in order to get a double
profit, which they will reap from wool
brought in free and made into cloth
ing for which prices based on taxed
wool must be paid. We have tried to
be patiently explicit with the Journals
defective vision, and we trust that it
is now able to see the consistency Of
the paragraphs that head this article.

at home and the scarcity abroad when

Estimates as to the wheat yield in the
Northwest grow smaller every day. A
month ago it was predicted that the WELD
would amount to 2O0.OOO,OO0 bushels.
while now the most sanguin. say il will
not be over 14O,OOO,NND Many others
place it at u much smaller figure. Tie
crop will be the smallest for years. Re.
ports received in Duluth are more dis.
couraging every day. The acreage was
very large, but thousands of acres have
been drowned out. Instead Of twenty
bushels to the acre, as was figured a
month ago. the yield will not average over
from ten to twelve bushels to the acre in
most sections. Rust and smut are also
appearing all over the wncat country and
over so per cent of the wheat cut so far
has failed to grade anywhere near the
best. On high lands wheat will probably
be of fair quality. but ON low lands what
little there is of it will not grade at all.

quiry upon this subject. That inquiry
shows that the gold Of the world to-day
is nearly, or quite, three times as much
as it was fifty years ago. Mulhall, who
has been widely quoted in the papers
Of the United States in the past few
weeks, indicates in his latest diction-
airy of statistics that the amount Of gold
in the world, coined and %uncoined, if
ty years ago, amounted to less than
two and a half billion Of dollars. TAX
ing his figures for 1890 and adding the
production since that time, it would
appear that the gold of the world to-
day, coined and uncoined, is over eve
billions Of dollars, being nearly, or
quite, three times as much as 1t was
fly years ago. Had there been no in
crease in the population meantime,
there would be thus three times as
much gold for each person now as
there was half a century ago. But the
population Of the world has increased
so per cent. in that time, so that the
amount Of gold for each individual is
therefore about twice what it was Mt
that time. This, however, relates to
the gold in bulk, and not gold money.
A further study Of Mulhall and other
statisticians shows that the increase
in the production of the gold which is
coined into money has been as great as
the increase in the production of the
metal itself. Fifty years ago only 3 SO
