bearing upon the question OF his expul-
sion from the house Of representatives.
Mr.. Roberts in the beginning OF the
discussion OF his polygamous practices
not only admitted that he was a poly
gamlst but boasted Of that fact and
seemed to think that his taking this
position openly and afterward retain
ing his seat would be interpreted as
an acknowledgement by the people OF
the country OF giving polygamy some
degree Of recognition.
Accepting this as true, the country
has concluded to take issue with Mr..
Robersts upon his position, Therefore
the retaining Of Mr., Roberts in his seat
in cogress involves an issue upon the
subject OF polygamy, shall vote to
urseat Roberts and use every effort in
that direction,

NEW YORK. Nov. ga dispatch TO
the Herald from Manila, says
The opinion Of many military men
and OF resident foreigners Ia that
Agulnnldo has probably escaped by
changing the seat OF war into the
northern part OF the Islands, They
think he has taken considerable
army with him. This, II true. will
necessltate new series Of operations
on our part, and Aguinaldo has gained
n temporary strategic advantage,
Those holding this view point out
the fact that the insurgents never in
tended TO hold the alleged capital at
Tarlao as u permanent capital, as II
was slightly fortified. They also claim
that the railroads being left intact,
while much rolling stock was burned
and destroyed indicates that a rapid
retreat was made several weeks back.
This retreat must have been accom-
pllshed ut the time Lawton began his
San IsIdro movement Therefore The
insugents have had time to move out
their principal supplies and munitions,
It Is also a fact that our circle OF
troops has been closed w so far with
out material resistance except in tho
region Of escape to the north near
Wheatons column.
Tho captured supplies have proved
insignificant compared with those that
would be required, Agulnaldo's sup

CHICAGO, Nov, 22-The Tribune
says
In order to avoid the necessity of
bringing cars that are on the far west
ern lines to Chicago or st, Louis for re-
pairs, the Pullman Palace Car Company
intends to secure shops in Denver in
which to do the work. Vice President
Wickes, General Superintendent Gar
son and several other officials of the
company are now in Denver negotia-
ting for the purchase of suitable re-
pair shops. John S, Runnells, attor-

THE INTELLIGENCER.
The Bubble Burst.

The furry on the New York Stock
Exchange viii have a beneficial effect.
The balloon financing of certain enter
prises and the over-capitalIzation Of
combinations was bound to be pune
tured sooner or later. For some time
past Mr.. Henry clews, in his weekly
review of Wall street conditions in the
Intelllgencer, has sounded a note Of
warning, clearly showing the founda-
lions for his belief that these inflated
stocks must fall. And his predictions
have been verified. The stringeney Of
money Yves only one factor in the
disaster that occurred on the stock ex-
change. Primarily the Generalization
was the outcome Of growing dIStrust
Of many Industrial combinations which
were extrayagantly financed. This ma
turally was severe drain on the money
market. New York has paid out en0r-
nous sums In this way, and in the
course Of business 1t has not yet re-
turned-most of 1t never will return.
The wild speculation that has been go
ing on under these conditions had only
the future Of costly settlement to
look forward to. 1t has come, and none
TOO soon. for If 1t had been deferred the
effects would have been far more dis
astrous.
In panic Of the character that oc-
CURED on Monday the most impregna-
BILE stocks were bound to suffer to some
extent, but with the coming calm after
the storm they will recover. 1t will be
well to remember that with all this
furry the legitimate commercial and
Industrial interests of the country have
not been affected, nor will they be. The
situation was pretty thoroughly analy-
zed in Mr.. Clews' last letter to the In
teltigencer, in which he said; while
the present shake-up may be very disa-
greeable and expensive for the Impru-
dent, 1t will certainly prove beneficial
in the long run. Expansion Of all sorts
has been going on for months, at a
pace which needed some sort OF test or
check, and this has been applied in the
most natural method, that Of tight
money. Some contraction is now in
order; weak spots are coming to the
surface; unhealthy speculation is re-
celvlnE check, and when values have
had time TO adjust themselves to the
new conditions we may reasonably look
for renewal Of the upward move

Daughter Of the Elm,
A Tale of the Virginia Border
Before the War.
By GRANVILLE DAWSON HALL

By GRANVILLE DAWSON HALL.
A powerful story, recalling forgotten
tragedies. A love story threads a
stirring recital Of crime and de-
tective work. Scene in the valley
of the upper Monongahela, con-
Meeting with Pittsburgh, Clarks-
burg and Fairmont.
The book IS something more than
an ordinary bit Of fiction. It has a
suhstrntum Ct historical fact, and
some real people figure in its
pages. There is a vivid glimpse Of
American life as found in that valley
forty years ago. The book critic o.
great metropolitan western daily,
who read the manuscript, says the
author has dipped his pen In tho
very pigments Of life" The head Of
leading Chicago publishing house
said of it: Eve have been much In
terested;" "the plot is clever" and
details "ingenious." 1.-THE story itself
Is interesting and there are some
capital situations"

A Tale Of the Virginia Border BEFORE

Some weeks ago the Inteligencer had
occasion to anticipate the publication
Of the novel written by West Virgin
ian, who has been long absent from the
state, but who has never lost his inter-
est In a community where the power
and gracefulness Of his pen instructed
and interested the people Of nearly n
generation ago. At that time Without
"a knowledge OF the manuscript or the
slightest lntImntiOn Of the motif or
scheme Of the work, the Intelligencer
felt Justified IN predicting that Mr..
Granville DAVIDSON Halls Daughter OF
the Elm" would be composition OF
narrative and ActloH that would meet
the realization OF the highest anucipa-
lions Of his friends and AcquainthnceS.
The book is just now from the press,
and after examining its attractive
pages we are Bure the reading public
will be edited and entertained In perus-
ing the volume. It's power and recon-
mendatIon to public interest do not lie
altogether In the fact Of the local nt-
IuospherG that IE impaired TO the story
told. Nor do the historical facts around
which are woven tho romantic tale
form the basis Of its chief merit, for II
Is clever in plot. graceful In dict!oR and
charming In style. The characters who
figure in II were real people, and the
love story that lllumlnes the pages
serves an a foil TO the trRRical lines.
