ANOTHER TOBACCO FIGHT.
Significance Of Cut i'm Price Made by
ST. Louis Company.

ST. LOUIS, September 23.--Tobacco
manufacturers and dealers in st. Louis
regard the 10 per cent. cut made by the
Liggett & Meyers Tobacco Company on
all its brands as the beginning of another
terrific fight to be waged between the in
dependent factories and the American To-
bacco Company. commonly referred TO as
the trust. The fact that the Drummond
Tobacco Company, of this city, has not
made any reduction, leads to ;he belief
that the Continental deal will go through,
even If 1t has not already been consum-
mated and that the Drummond people
will cast their lot with the combine.
What action will be taken by the Con-
tinental Company toward meeting the cut
of the Ligge;t & Meyers Company cam
not be said until the negotiations are all
settled. As the matter now stands, the
new organization is not i'm position TO do
much, but IL the Drummond deal goes
through it Is entirely probable that re-
taliation will come in the form of a
vigorous onslaught on cigarettes. The
Drummond factory will Strengthen the
American Company in a spot whore it
always has been weak, while The Con-
tinental probably will make a big cut in
the price of plug.

SPOKESMAN HANNA.

| The Ohio State Journal says that II IS
! officially announced that President Nc
Kinley will make no political speeches on
his western trip this fall. And. adds the
| Journal. the announcement is almost un-
necessary.
Whether the announcement Is unneces-
sary or not, it would certainly be unne-
cessary for the President TO do his own
political talking this fall. Why should he
bother himself with a little matter like
that, while Mark Hanna keeps his health
and strength and vocal powers intact?
AS we noticed the other day, since the
war ended Hanna has come TO the front
again as the chief spokesman of the ad-
ministration and hardly week passes
that he does not deliver himself gibly as
to the Presidents ideas and Intentions.
Some of these deiverances, it is true, are
at variance with erstwhile declarations of
the President himself, but 1t would seem
now that when he made them, Mr.. Nc
Kinley did not recognize that he and Han
ma are one, and that the one is composed
mostly of Hanna.
Oh. no: the President need not worry
himself about making political speeches;
Hanna will do his political talking and
his political work, also. And he will do
the latter well. If not according to the
highest standard Of ethics.
As a near-at-home evidence OF how tho
roughly McKinleyism and Hannaism are
welded, IT may be mentioned that at
late meeting of one of the Virginia Re
assurance that the administration would
endeavOr to bring about harmony in the
Virginia Republican camp. This was an
administration endorsement of Hanna's
policy in dealing with the Republicans in
this State. Months ago it leaked cut that
Hanna was exercising his genius to the
end in question. And we take 1t, judging
the future by the past, that Hanna's har-
mony efforts are likely, before election
day, to be followed by exhibitions Of the
Hanna peculiar suasion methods that
We're said to have been in evidence in yir-
ginia during the presidential campaign Of
1896. Not a few persons have been impo-
lite enough TO characterize these methods
as attempts to debauch the electorate in |
some instances, AMI as moral coercion" !
In others. Between debauchery and any- |
thing that the word moral can be gsoci- |
ated with there is a wide range, but, as |
We have frequently said, Hanna's genius |
is most comprehensive.

MISS DAXIS'S EUNERAL.

The obsequies of Miss Winnie Davis were
extraordinary. The funeral procession
may be said to have extended from Mar
ragansett Pier to Richmond, with dele
cations from the South joining it here.
IL was uncommon, too, in that Ii was
military funeral-a rare thing for a wo-
man to have. But that was her cue be-
cause she was the Daughter of the Con-
federacy. and because she was member
Of Lee Camp, and because she was the
darling Of all our old veterans.
1t was a royal funeral. in a double
sense; in that the ceremonals were
superb and in that the occasion walked
the sympathes of whole country.
We can scarcely say which touched us
most-the holy calm, and comforting ser
vices at st. Pauls the miles of sorrow
ing people stretched in lines from the
church to Hollywood, or that great null
titude Of reverential people that covered
the hilltops at the cemetery
1t seems to us that everything was fit.
The appearance of Dr. Hoge in the chan
eel to assist the beloved DR.. Carmichael
was most appropriate. and few who were
present will ever forget the pathos with
which he sounded his every sentence.
The congregation was largely made up
OF veterans of the civil war. and being in
that church It could not be but that
memories Of other days were stirred
within them.
Sunset at Hollywood saw .he funeral
party gathered about the grave. The
heavens were lighted by a ruddy glow.
and the murmur of the river breaking
over the falls and of the breeze signing
through the trees mingled with the Care
well hymn. The coffin was opened for a
moment so that Mrs. Davis and Mrs.
Hayes might have last glimpse of the
dear one. They printed kisses upon the
ley lips. Then the lid was replaced and
the coffin lowered into the grave Tens
OF thousands Of people standing upon the
encircling hills looked on reverentially.
Few could hear what was said hut all
could see the movements of the group
about the grave; all could enter into the
solemnities OF the hour and sympathize
with the stricken mother and sister.
Daylight was dying as the services were
concluded when kith and kin turned and |
left their beloved to Mother Earth's |
charge. And so the night-the night of |
their sorrow-came on; fearful in its |
loneliness and darkness, yet redeemed by |
the promise of better and brighter day !
10 come in land where bonds of love |
are not broken and heart-cords are not
strained or snapped.

adopted by the members of the School
| Board, at a special meeting held last
night, the names OF the Building Com
mittee of the Council, which had been
! carved upon the cornerstone OF the new

AT the meeting of the board last night,
Mr.. John G.. Livezey. one of the members
OF the Building Committee, asked what
would be inscribed on the stone and was
told the names of the committeeman
would be placed on it; I'm fact, had al

having his name placed there and an
other member declared he did not desire
10 take part in erecting a monument TO
himself while alive. After a good deal of
discussion. it was decided TO turn the
stone around so that the names would not
show. IT was also unanimously de-
cided TO invite Hon. Thomas Temple

they were released and went on their

1t is thought here that there will be

WAR AND LAW.

War Is breeder OF lawsuits. and III
| aftermath is Invariably litigation. When
soldiers lay down their arms and turn
their swords into plowshares. the at
torney invariably steps forth. accoutred
for forensic battles and equipped for
strategy against the other members OF
his invunerable profession. Baltimore
has already broken the silence which
laws are supposed to maintain In times
Of war and but recently had case In
volving a matter OF insurance. There
was but little money involved. but the
suit is doubtless the precursor of dozens
along the same lines. which will soon
follow in all parts Of the country.
The plaintiff was a soldier. who belong
ed TO q sick-beneft order. and 1t was al
legged that the society. upon the outbreak
of the war. passed resolutions to pay the
dues of such members as should enter
active service. The young man. probably
feeling that II wouldn't be altogether
deplorable even II he did become little
disabled while with his regiment, went
to Cuba and was wounded In the arm at
FL Caney. He claimed sick benefit for
fourteen We 'kE, and got judgment for
that amount
When hostllities with Spain first began
and troops were called for, the question
OF life INSURANCE. proved serious stumb-
lng-block in NE way of many who would
otherwise have enlisted In the great
majority Of the policies there were cove
nants forbldding the insured to leave
this country, while in other instances
there were clauses multiplying the con-
tracts II the insured engaged in war. A
mar going forth to battle always has
lingering idea that he may be one of the
killed, and the thought that he cannot
even leave insurance after dying a
hero's death is not at all inspiring.
And yet. on the other hand, the in
surance companies are not to be censured
for declining risks which presumably in
volve the strongest possible chances for
death. In some cases, however. COM
panies did make certain concessions to
soldiers who remained in this country.
Had some prophet been able to foretell |
the outcome of the last war, the insur-
ance-men would doubtless have made
more concessions to the troops leaving |
for Cuba and Manila than to those re-
in camp. According to the sta |
Iistics gathered in the latter days Of Au-
gust, only about $50 officers and men had,
up to that time, been killed or died from |
whereas the names of 1924 who
had died from disease in camp, at home,
md on the transports were procured.
These figures may prove the basis OF
lifferent calculations if we, ever engage
n another war. Or. better still. the fer
lie ingenuity of our businessmen may
levlse an insurance scheme which will
meet the demands of soldiers and assist
n giving them more encouragement TO
isk their lives as patriots.
And meanwhile the lawyer may watch
urrent litigation involving questions Of
insurance, and learn thoroughly what
hey are expected to do after our next
var,
