While there was slight Improvement in
sales of cotton at unchanged quotations,
there is nothing at present to encourage

quiet at the close with sales of 40 bales.
The receipts were s. 429 bales, against 1867

The indications are that congress
will adjourn, leaving both Alaska and
Hawaii orphans as before. The forma-
ton of governmental and judiciary
systemsis not nearly so fascinating leg
islation as passing public building act
or negotiating for a river and harbor
appropriation. This fact recalls an in
cident in the congressional career of
the present amiable and efficient as
sistant secretary of the navy. He was
making great fight for Indian re-
forms, about the time that sharp
controversy was going on in Wash
ington over the telephone monopoly.
Many of his constituents had long
nursed a grudge against the American
Bell Company, and they were getting
uneasy. They yearned to bring all
possible influence to bear against the
monopoly. Accordingly, one of these
enterprising gentlemen wired the con-
gresham this brief but eloquent mes
sage: Dear Charley: There are more
telephones than Indians in Massachu-
sets" There are more post offices,
rivers and harbors almost anywhere in
the country than Hawaiians or Alask-
ans, and so the "colonists" must walt
patiently for that promised form Of
government.

So Germany has quit the game. She
withdraws her war ships from the Phil
ippines, admits that we are in secure
possession of the islands, and able to
protect all German interests; she even
asks us to take care of her affairs in
Samoa during the absence of a German
war vessel, and finally decides to let
all American fruits into the Fatherland
without obstruction. Precisely how
real was the German menace in the
Philippines cannot be stated with conf
dence. Like the details of the ante
bellum correspondence between our
government and Spain, the actual facts
cannot be known till the secret cores
pondence is opened to the historian. The
common belief is, however, that Ger
many's course both at home and in the
east. has been more than discourteous
and annoying; in fact positively
unfriendly. If the developments of the
past few days import the inauguration
of a new and more rational policy, and
better understanding between the two
governments and peoples, there Is
cause for genuine satisfaction. The re-
ports concerning the German face about
come from Washington, not Berlin or
Cologne, and they are the most trust
worth and gratifying on that account.

most unconSciously one discounts their
charms. But it must be recalled that
by merciful dispensation the eyes Of
the men were made to match these
atrocious fashions, so that they &C
cepted them as admiringly as the men
of a later generation accepted balloon
sleeves and picture hats (only far more
meekly). The eye sees only what
brings with it the power of seeing;
this accounts partly for the phenom-
enon of success which attended those
ancient ideals of feminine attractive
ness. Another reason is that they had
to like them or go without; there was
nothing else for them to do.
1t ought in justice to be said, how
ever, that Mr.. Herne and his company
manage very well without the Access
sories of gorgeous costumes. Both
they and their play are too firmly
founded upon real merit to need the
advertising which a wedding gown can
bestow.
The Worcester Circuit of Epworth
Leagues of Worcester, which meets in
Trinity Church today, is one of es-
pecial interest because OF the able
speakers who will be present. Wor-
cester Methodists rarely have the OPP
portunity of hearing so many promi-
nent workers in the young people
movement as there will be at this meet
ing.
The New England cabinet. including
the president, vice president, and 9TH
er officers, together with presidents OF
the six New England Methodist con-
ferences, will be present Many pas
tors and league workers of this part
of the conference, as well as Boston
and Providence, are expected. The af-
ternoon program includes short adj
dresses by Rev. c. Q. Judkins Of YER
mont, Rev. 0, W, Scott. Rev. F. n. Up
ham and Rev. c. w. Blackett OF Mas
sachusetts; and six department con-
fercnces.
In the evening there will be addresses
by Rev. II. L. Foss of Bangor, Me-,
and Rev Luther Freeman of Portland,
Me. Messrs. G. w. Penniman of Fall
River and J. E. C. Farnham and f.
w. Wheeler of Providence will also
take part in the exercises.
This is one of the regular quarterly
meetings of the circuit, to when the
general public is invited. and it is eX-
pected there will be a large attend
ance from Worcester and surrounding
towns.
Arrangements are being made for
delegates from the towns more re-
, mote.

pondent reports that $75,000,00O OF
American capital has been invested in
Cuba since the war ended The exact
figures are Of no particular conse-
quence. 1t is enough to know that a
large amount of American money has
gone into the island within the past
five or six months, and this is of real
Importance. The influence of the fact
will be to promote the annexation of
Cuba to the United States and dis
courage independence.
1t has been freely asserted that the
investors maintain q very active lobby
in Washington, for the purpose of slim
ulating annexation sentiment and in
this effort they inevitably place them
selves in direct opposition to the presi-
dents expressed intentions. That, how
ever, is only one item in the case. The
accumulation of American investments
in Cuba may be expected to strengthen
the anneXationists there as well as in
the United States and give them the
nucleus for party that is now lacking,
Reports differ as to the sentiments of
the Cubans on this question, but the
weight of the evidence indicates that
for the most part they still cling to the
idea of independence with much per-
sistency. There is good reason to dis
trust those reports which have repre-
scented Gomez as inclined to annexation.
His acquiescence in American occupa-
ton is with the understanding that II
is to be only temporary, and he has
been more than once reported as saving
so in effect. The Cubans as a whole
have been very well behaved since we
took charge of the government. and
there is every reason to suppose that
their comparative contentment rests
upon the same understanding that
American occupation is only temporary
In the interior, where our troops have
scarcely penetrated, peace and gooc
order are said to prevail under the ma
tive local government.
But how long will the present hannv
conditions last? BY some means an i'm
preston has gone abroad, that occuna-
ton is to continue only a year; but is
1t probable that even the sanitary rc-
forms so imperatively demanded can ba
accomplished by us within that period .
Is it likely that our government win
feel justified in withdrawing troops
from Cuba by next January? If thew
are not withdrawn, how soon will die
content begin to show itself? The situo-
ton is known to be delicate, and If is
very desirable that nothing should he
done to precipitate a clash. The surast
way to bring on such a misfortune is
to agitate for annexation.
The Cubans are suspicious nv rat,,ra
and by training, and manifestation of
annexation sentiment is certain 70 ov
cite their animosity and arouse onno-
sltion. BY agitating and conspiring for
this end the capitalists are taking the
obvious course to bring trouble unon
the government and upon themselves

years. The approximate amount of ex-
ports was 1924, $4,000. The imports, on
the contrary, showed a marked de-
cline last year. The gross amount was
only s4S,S14.OOO. which was a decrease
of $36,S7S,0O0 from the preceding year.
In order to find so small an aggregate
OF imports, one must go back to 1885,
and again to 1879, and even in the early
seventies, this amount was exceeded
for two or three years in succession. 1t
appears, therefore, that Boston is par
ticlpating generously in the commercial
growth of the country. and that her ad-
vancement has been wholly in the ex
port trade, which in fact has been the
chief factor in the commercial growth
of the whole country for the past two
years.

Some Of the brethren of the church
show impatience because they have
learned that, under the Spanish treaty
the priests in the Philippines will re-
tain possession of all church property
as before. Well, even this is no more
of an obstacle than the British order
which excludes all missionaries from
the Soudan till Kitchener thinks order
has been sufficiently restored to make
their residence safe. The priests will
ma their power very seriously i'm
paired by the American principle,
which excludes them from all partici-
patton in politics and tax gathering. 1t
may take them some time to get used
to the new conditions, but they will
have to do it.
