Albin Ranger is what his names i'm
plies. He makes no claim of being a
rough rider" He has been through
the hands of the police, after a little
slSirmish, and is now an inmate of the
city hospital. His injuries primarily
consist of a broken ankle. The hospital
attendants do not listen to his com
planning Of a headache They argue that
is the natural result Of cause-drunlx-
enness. He was certainly under the
influence of liquor when admitted to
the hospital yesterday
The police have nothing to say as to
whether he was drunk or not. Ranger
was found on Green street by citizen.
He was helpless and suffering intense
pain. The police were notified. He
was taken to the office of DR.. Moore,
who ordered his removal to the city
hospital.
When Ranger was admitted he said
he was a laborer and lived in Worces-
ter. The hospital authorities could not
find his address in the directory. Meth
er could the police.
He claims he was born in Holden,
which both hospital and police authori-
ties consider as true. That town will
be looked to for the payment Of the
expenses of Rangers drunk.

One can see all the wool merchants
in Boston put their togues in their
cheeks, as they read of the failure Of
the Tradesmen's National Bank of
New York. This institution has been
in existence for 70 years, and it is a pity
that it should go down. 1t set out late
ly to remove the wool market of the
country from Boston to New York, and
this enterprise contributed largely to
It's ruin. Inevitably, there was spec

was a wool exchange and a trade paper
behind it, and for time things went
smoothly. Then came depression in

Senator Chandler has been interview
ing Agoncillo and trying to learn from
him what the Filippinos want He re-
ports that the Spaniards have been
driven from practically all the Philip
pine territory, and the natives want to
be allowed to experiment with self-gov-
eminent. If Spanish authority is con-
tinued, Senator Chandler sees only
bloodshed ahead, and this will "dis-
grace" the United States. If, on the
other hand, the natives are allowed to
set up in housekeeping for themselves,
all win be serene and we shall have no
trouble with them or anybody else.
Hence the peace commission should by
all means Dust Spain from every one of
the 400 islands. Thus does Senator
Chandler swallow as established facts
all the representations made by Aguin-
aldo's agent. Agoncillo. He sees no
danger Of complications with other
powers, and no bloodshed threatened
by the proposed dominion of Malays,
Chinese, negrittoes and breeds.
