London Markets quiet.

LONDON, April 25.-The money market is
somewhat easier, largely because Of the ex-
pectations in certain quarters Of gold inn
ports from the United States. The stock ex-
change is less disturbed by the Graeco-Turk-
ish war than was for time expected. The
news Of Turkish success has led to a sub
stantial recovery. The changes for the week
except that Greeks have fallen nearly per
cent, are only fractional, while sound in
vestment stocks are much in request. Min
ing securities are quiet, but show a better
feeling. Americans, on the whole, have
dwindled out of sympathy with the New
York market. The entire list shows a de-
cline varying from Y to 2, with very small
business.

FIREMEN WE'RE BUSY.
Several Small BIazes and Long Runs.
but No Material Damage Done.

The flremen yesterday were kept busy, but
none of the fires were of consequence. The
most serious one of the day a blaze in
barn in the rear of III Seventh street south,
about 4:30 o'clock yesterday afternoon. Boys
had started bonfire of leaves near the barn,
and a spark ignited a pile Of straw outside the
building. This soon communicated to the
barn, and it was considerably damaged. The
loss on the building, which is owned by
Loren Fletcher, will be about $175. The

were stor ed inside These were all saved

later in the afternoon. Early last evening a
chimney fire at 813 Third avenue south
and a burning porch at COS Twentieth avenue

loss.

CoTvroNs IN POOR DEMAND.
Review of the Manchester Markets
for the Week.

MANCHESTER, April 25.-The Easter holi-
day season has materially curtailed demand in
this market during the last fortnight, but
since Wednesday there has been fair trade,
particularly in cloths. In some instances the
rates have been stiffened considerably and the
demand from India is somewhat better. Most
of the lines of goods called for in the Levant
nave been, of course, interrupted by the war,
while the Brazilian trade has been affected
by the financial situation there. Other South
american markets show a fair demand for
miscellaneous fabrics. Yarns are firm, but
the cotton business is carried on from hand
to mouth virtually, although the regular out
put seems to be absorbed.
So far as Germany is concerned, the quo
tat1ons there are fraction higher. Yarns are
especially active and the prices are remuner-
alive. There is a fair general business with
values improving.

the BARrbEY VERDICT.

The people of Nebraska have reason
to feel grateful to the court and jury
that have frarlcssly done their duty in
vindicating the law in the trial and con
victiou Of Joseph S. BARLEY, late state
treasurer Nebraska has impcaChcd
and dcposcd state officers for official
misconduct but ex-Trcasurer BARLEY is
the first to lie successfully prosecuted
under the criminal code. The prosecu-
tion involved not merely the question Of
embezzled public funds, but the ability
of public trust and to impose the pen
atty prescribed by the law.
In the case Of Barley there are no ex-
tenuating circumstances. lie entered
the Office with the deliberate intent to
defy all law and disregard all safeguards
thrown around the state treasury. He
positively refused to make known the
condition of the treasury or the places
where the state money was kept lie
treated the most sacred trust funds as
his own and manipulated the state de
posits for private gain and po-
iitical ends. Instead of protect
ing the state against loss from Wild
cat banks he has sunk tens of thousands
of dollars of state money in concerns
that he knew TO be insUlvCnt His
whole official career has been one of
reckless bravado and Migrant dishOn-
csty.
Taking it for granted that courts and
ittp tn
justice thwartcd for part of the plum
der, BARLEY started out with deliber-
ate attempt to corrupt the jury en-
panellcd to try him. BY the use of
money which he should have paid over
to his successor he employed the ablcSt
and most skillful attorneys available for
his defense, vino fought for him every
inch of ground covered by the trial.
Every technicality of the law was ap
pCalcd to for his benefit and advantage
taken of everything that could possibly
help him with the jury. Yet
never We're the scales of justice held
more even during Il trial than by Judge
Baker during the trial of BARLEY. BY
the judges trmncss the case which
threatened to be protracted for long
weeks, was expedited, and all attempts
to bewIdcr the jury with irrelevant tcS-
timony promptly frustrated. The
states attorneys, Attorney General
Smyth, Deputy Attorney General Smith
and County Attorney Baldrigr, also de
serve the greatest credit for their Wig
orous prosecution and careful presenta-
ton of the evidence.
The Bartley verdict rcncws the conf
dencc of the people in the supremacy Of
the law. 1t strengthens the popular be-
lief in the efficiency of our judicial sys-
tenn. 1t reinfOrceS the hope that the
lesson of the defalcation will not be lost

When now, from every Verdant bouGh dear

Does any think the rustling of ledgers

When from afar he seems to hear the

TO drop n line, mere ink can't drown the
fancies that pursue him.
How joyfully would he give up the weary
chase of mammCn,
TO lo!l beside some likely stream and lure

But not for him are hill or stream or

Mixed with the tempter's voice he hears

And fights on for the hostages that he

WAR AGAINST DUTTEnINE.
some Remarks on the Latest Move Of
the Dairy Men.

Kansas City Star
The butter makers OF the United States,
under the lead OIL Ex-Governor Hoard OF Wis
consin, have determined to push their war
fare against the butterine makers until the
latter shall be compelled to shut up their
factories in every state in the union, as they
have been forced to do in many of the states
1t is about time for the poultry raisers to
begin war on the great dressed meat houses
in the country, with a view OF forcing them
to quit killing cattle, hogs and sheep. so that
people who desire to eat meat shall have no
choice but to eat fowls. The latter movement
would be just as rational in all respects as
the former. The substitutes for butter Whlch
have been produced in such great quantities
by the packers in recent years are just as
wholesome and as fit for use for human
food as the genuine article OF butter produced
from cows milk, and II is a good deal more
paIatable than 80 per cent Of the butter that
is produced on the farm, In the thousands
of small daries of the land.
Proof of the latter statement Is found In
the fact that standard makes OF butterine
sell for a higher price than can be obtained
for the great bulk OF What IS commonly
known as country butter" Consumers OF
butter and butterine vastly Outnumber the
makers of butter Why then should state
legislatures be in such haste to put ban
upon the manufacture of butterine? There
has never been single demand from consum-
ers for such legislation. There has
been demand for laws to prevent the fradu-
lent sale OF butterine under the pretense
that it is real butter. and such laws have
been generally adopted But there is at the
present time no need OF them. for butterlne
has become a standard article which sells
readily on it's merits, and tradesmen do not
need to practice deception in order to sell 1t,
As a matter OF fact ii Is not the farmers
either those who make the country butter
OF those who do not make it-who are de-
manding the suppression OF the manufacture
OF butterine. 1t is the creamery men who
are making all the trouble. II is pertinent
to ask therefore, wherein does a creamery
differ from the butterine department OF a
