really startling nature would have come
to the surface AS it is, however, not
enough has been said about the matter in
print even to enlighten the public as to
what "wash sales" are.
Briefly stated, ''wash sales" are enc
sales, or perhaps it would be better to
say fictitious sales" reported at lower or
higher figures than the prevailing market
for the purpose of forcing prices up or
down. The broker who makes this ex.
PLANTATION to the writer adds that he SUD-
poses the term "wash sales" comes from
the old expression "make one hand wash
the other" At all events, the necessity of
the rule against ''wash sales" must be an
parent on the slightest reflection, since
without such rule the entire market
might be hopelessly demoralized by ire
sponsible and INSCRIPTIONS operators at
any time.
Wash sales" have not been confined TO
the Cotton Exchange in years past. They
have been troublesome, rs q matter of
fact, on the Stock Exchange, the Produce
Exchange, the CofAe Exchange and every
other exchange iS town. The ordinary
bucket shop operations are in effect wash
sales, and more than one member of the
Stock Exchange has been severely punish
cd Tor indulging In them. Only few
years ago one Of the most prominent young
stockholders In town was expelled for
participating in one form of "wash sales. I"
and this so prcyed upon his mind that he
killed himself within 12 months thereafter.

This Is particularly true of the sort of

Getting Ready For Big Business.
As a rule, New Workers do not think
the war Is practically over with by any
means. They believe the Spaniards have
yet to learn that the Yankees will not be
satisfied with anything less than complete
submission. Yet they understand that the
Spaniards will not yield this until thew
are thoroughly whipped Still It is the
general opinion here that few months
more will wind up hostilities and that
peace will be declared before the beginning
OF 1899, possibly some time in advance of
that date.
New Workers also believe that the sign
ing OF peace articles will inaugurate a
business boom, the like of which has not
been seen for many year, and they are
getting ready to take full advantage there

tions to that end are being made by the

the Effort to Stamp Them Out.

NEW YORK, July 27.-tSpecial. Per
sonal interest in the war has been at flood
tide here for full week or more-in fact,
ever since the first shipload of wounded
mon from Cuba sailed into port, and it is
not likely there will be any decrease in
this sentiment SO long as men who have
smelled Spanish powder are TO be seen
walking up-and down the streets.
Their arrival was marked as matter
of course by an influx of Spanish relics of
all sorts and descriptions. Mauser bullets
in blocks of five, buttons from Spanish
uniforms, rude crutches fashioned from
saplings and the branches of trees by
wounded men, handkerchiefs carried by
Spanish officers when taken prisoner and
the like are shown by fortunate possessors
with unbounded pride and gazed upon
with awe by all who get sight of them.
And of course the time is bound to come,
and soon. when relics of this sort will be
offered for sale by the men who keep curl
osity shops. In time, too, there Is every
probability that brisk trade in spurious
Spanish relics will spring up. So far as
the writer has learned, the sale of counter
felt relics has not yet begun, but there is
every reason TO anticipate it, since from
their very simplicity they would be easy of

Best Harbor on the Coast.

Bahia Honda, little westward of the
south point Of Puerca island, is one of
the best harbors on the east coast Of
Porto Rico. 1t is about mile in extent
and open to the southwark, being pro-
tected by reefs, which contract the
channel from mile to one-tenth of a
mile in breadth. The eastern side OF
the bay terminates to the southwark
In low, sharp point: the west side in
bold headline, crowned by a little hill
near which, on reef, dry dock is sit
uated. The Cabras, two small, fiat in
let's, hug this reef. The interior of the
bay is skirted by a reef, patches of
which lie under thirteen feet of water
These, however, are easily seen. In the
harbor there is depth Of from five to
eight fathoms, but as the anchorage is
quite limited in extent, large vessels are
compelled to lie outside in deeper water.
While the harbor facilities are excellent.
there is no landing place at which
troops could debark easily.

Blackfoot news. (Blackfoot, Idaho) 1891-1902, 1898-05-07

In the United States Supreme court
last Tuesday a decision was handed
down in the case of E. F. Holden VS..
the sheriff of Salt Lake county, Utah,
upholding the constitutionality of the
territorial law fixing a days work in
smelters and mines in the territory at
eight hours
Mr.. Holden was arrested for violat-
ing the law and was sentenced to i'm
prisonment. He brought the case to
the Supreme court in an effort to Sc
cure writ of error on the ground that
the law was unconstitutional in that
II was calculated to deprive a citizen
of life or property without due process
of law. The court held that such was
not the case, but that the law was an
exercise of the states police powers.
Justice Brown said in passing upon
the case that 1t was not the intention
of the court to pass generally upon the
constitutionality of eight-hour laws,
but that in so far as state laws were ex-
ertcd for the protection of the lives,
the health or the morals of a communi-
ty there could be no doubt of their
propriety or of their constitutionality.
There could be no doubt Of the excep-
tional and unhealthful character of
work In smelters or mines. because of
bad air, high temperature and noxious
gases, and hence the wisdom of the
state legislation.
Justice Browns opinion sustains the
decision of the Supreme court of Utah,
and is to this effect, in so far as it re-
lates to occupations which threaten the
life, health or morals of employees it is
valid and can be enforced
Blackfoot news. (Blackfoot, Idaho) 1891-1902, 1898-05-07

The continually increasing appIica-
ton of electric lighting and power
transmission in mines adds more and
more to the Importance of the question
as to what dangers arise from the
working of electric installations for
mining. These dangers chiefly consist
in the fact that, with careless or un-
intentional touching of electric applf-
aances and conductors, men or ami
mails may receive powerful electric
shocks, or under certain conditions the
electric plant may cause a fire: and
dangers of this kind are greater UNDER
ground, although they can be yery
easily counteracted In the reguIa-
tons as regards safety, issued by the
German Electricians Union, inter-
preted by Regierunsrath DIR. Weber.
Berlin, 1896, sufficiently comprehensive
protective measures are given. More
over, for fiery and dusty mines the
dangers are of a special nature, chief
ly arising from the breakage of an
incandescent lamp, sparkling, heating
of a wire to redness, or melting of the
cutoutS-an causes which NAV give
rise to an explosion As to the extent
of such dangers, detailed experiments
have not hitherto been made. SO that
electricians, mine officials and inspec-
tors had no means for arriving at uni
form and unanimous opinion as TO
these dangers. and therefore of the
measures to be taken for counteract-
ing them. In order to throw some
light upon the protective measures to
be adopted, the council of the West
phalian Mining Association (Berggew-
erchaftskasse) at Bochun decided to
undertake the necessary trials at its
testing station lat the Consolidation
