II
Bringing the Big MeteoFlte.
SYDNEY. C. B., Sept. 21.-The steam
sealing bark Hope, with R. E. Peary
and party on board, returned from
north Greenland, arrived here yester-
day afternoon. All on board are
well. The Hope came into port
burning her last ton of coal
and with her bulwarks and decks
giving evidence of the furious seas
Of an unusually stormy summer. She
is nearly as deep in the water as when
she left here in the latter part of July,
with her bunkers full of coal, for the
huge Cape York meteorite, the
largest in the world, is in her
hold, and bedded in tons of bal
last Lieut.. Peary has on board also
six Cape York Esquimos who will GO
with him when he returns next year
to attempt to reach the North pole.
The Esquimos have their tents, dogs,
sledges and canoes. They are eager
for the undertaking, and all the
arrangements have been made. The
expedition visited Cape Sabine, and
relics Of the ill-fated expedition led by
Greeley have been obtained. The sum.
mer in Bafin bay was marked by
almost continuously stormy weather,
and by an unusual scarcity of ice.

I SWEEPING DECISION.
The Kansas City Live Stock Exchange
Hit Hard by Judge Foster
He DissSlyss tbs Organization IN the
ssOsnG That Is Is a Monopoly and
Operated Contrary to the
Ant-Frnss Law.

TOPEKA, Kan, Sept 2L-In the fed
brai court yesterday Judge Foster
handed down his decision dissolving
the organization Of the Kansas City
Live Stock exchange and prohibiting
It from continuing in business. He
held that its operation was in viola
ton Of the Sherman federal antitrust
law.
Tbs suit was begun by United States
District Attorney W. c. Perry about a
gear ago under the direction Of Attor-
ney-General Harmon, 1twas indirect.
" the outgrowth of the old Greer
Mills fight, and while intended to ap-
ply only to the Kansas City organize
ton, Judge Foster has made the opin-
ion SO broad that it sounds like a death
knell TO boards Of trade, trusts and
combinations Of every description in
the entire country.
In the opinion Judge Foster lays
down some startling propositions af-
fecting combinations and trusts. The
attorneys for the exchange set forth
that boards Of trade, exchanges and
similar organizations are in existence
in all parts of the country and are
necessary for the business Of the coun-
TRY.
Judge Foster holds that if properly
conducted such organizations would
be beneficial to the country at large,
but as they are conducted they are
beneficial only to the members, and
are a menace to the country. Continu-
ing he says;
The crying complaint Of to-day and the
great menace to the welfare Of the people is
| the tendency Of wealth to mon0pOlize and con-
/ troll by trusts and combinations the products
! and industries Of the country. It must be cons
| tessed by every thoughtful observer that many
so-cal1ed stock and produce exchanges are
among the most potent instruments for the &C
oonplishment of these purposes by spectators
and adVentuTeTs.
Men who add nothing to the productive
wealth Of the country grow rich or poor gam
bling On the wealth produced by others, Mel
are daily selling through these exchanges mil.
lions OF bushels OF corn, wheat and other pro
ducts who neither have nor expect to have Z
bushel OF produce Of any kind, and others art
buying millions who never expect to receive q
bushel Both sides are tampering with thu
normal prices fixed by the law OF supply and
demand, and are attempting by false ana dis
honest means and methods to serve their ends

Fall in Silver VIII Not Lessen Woes
Of Recommendation.
'If the complete results of discarding
silver, which lowers prices, and thereby
binders trade, have been already
reached, and no future injury from de-
monetization is to be apprehended, pos
sibly the world may be held to the sin
gle gold standard. But if the tendency
of the last a years to fall in prices
caused, as alleged, by stopping the coin

not be held to gold recommendation.
