BREAD CAST ON THE WATER.

In the matter Of expending the half
million on improving the Delaware
river down 70 the bay, to-days Record,
OF Philadelphia, says editorially:
"The special joint committee OF City
Councils which went to Harrisburg to
ask the Legislature for an appropria-
tion OF $500 900 for Delaware ship chan
mel deepening was confronted by the
even worse than empty condition OF the
state treasury. Any hope of state aid
In the further improvement of the COM
monweaith's great gateway to the sea
would, indeed, seem TO be idle just now
But every dollar that should thus be
cast by the Legislature on the waters
of the Delaware would surely return
doublefold and triplefold to the wealth
OF the entire state"

Answer Filed to Suit Instituted by the

Omaha, Doc. 3-On behalf Of the
nom bers of the South Omaha Live Stock
Exchange, the attorneys have filed an
answer in the United States Court TO the
suit of the government of the United
States, in which the government seeks
TO dissolve the live stock exchange under
what is known rs the antitrust law OF
the United States.
The case is considered OF the utmost
Importance throughout the country, as
it involves the validity of every live stock
exchange, whether its business be that OF
livs stock or speculative stocks. and a
great variety OF big establishments all
over the United States.
The defendants deny unlawful COM
bination. The exchange asserts its right
to maintain organization and IL is not
compelled TO deal with any member who
has been expelled for misconduct or who
is threatening To DESTROY the exchange
from personal motives. The answer con-
cludes with the statement that instead Of
bindering or retarding the owners of live
stock in the sale of their stock, the pur-
pose Of the exchange is to facilitate each
sale and To promote and increase the
Volume OF business done ut the stock
