HIS MONEY TO BnRN.

An administration which can antici-
pate the interest on the countrys bond
ed Indebtedness by nine months ought
to have nothing to fear from debt-mak-
ers like Bryan. There is a suspicion
that the stringent money situation that
has caused the government to take this
step is largely artificial, the result of a
combination between large bear operat-
ors In the stock market and some of the
bankers of New York city, who ought
to be in better business. But that
makes no difference with the admins
tration. If there is a stringency in
money, the administration is satisfied
that there ought not to be, and it is
willing to take any reasonable meas
ures to relieve the situation. How diff
ferent from conditions five anu six
years ago. The country now has q war
in progress, and it's finances are such
that it is in a position to advance in
terest payments without the least en-
barrassment. Then, under the pallid
peace of Grover Cleveland, it was
forced to issue bonds to meet It's cur
rent expenses. And yet there are men
outside of the lunatic asylums who say
that the democrats ought to be re-
turned to power

THE BRITISH BUILT CRUISER.

The government bought a gold brick
when it purchased the British built
cruiser New Orleans. When it was Sc
cured, the government wanted ships of
war, and it wasn't over particular as to
quality, so long as they would float and
carry men and guns. The New Or
leans served the purpose for which II
was purchased. 1t added unit to the
naval force when units counted. OF
the present condition of the New Or
leans, the Brooklyn Eagle says:
THE New Orleans, first class un-
protected cruiser, British build, arrived
at the Brooklyn navy yard this after
noon in a badly used up condition. She
came here to be fitted out, If possible,
for service in the Philippines. The
boilers will have to be practically re-
built or replaced with new ones. The
ship is credited with a speed of q knots
an hour, but she Is now able to make
only about half that. The engines, too,
are badly worn, and will have to be
refitted with new brasses and generally
overhauled before she again attempts
to go to sea- Her electric plant and
other machinery are in good condition.
A rough estimate of repairs that must
be made to the ship shows that she
will be detained at least two months at
the navy yard"
There was a sensational story afioat
some weeks ago, that the New Orleans
was top heavy and likely to turn
turtle at any time. At one time
the Texas, which was constructed on
English plans, was the subject for
most sensational yarns, but in the bat
tie with Cervera's fleet the Texas
proved to be all right. After the New
Orleans has been refitted by American
workmen, she may prove to be first
class cruiser in fact as well as in clas-
sfication.

DR.. GARRISON RESIGNS.

st. Louis, Oct. 1O.-At the annual
meeting of the stockholders OF the
Christian Publishing Company Rev. Dr.
James Harvey Garrison, editor-in-
chief of the Christian Evangelist, pre-
scented his resignation. This action on
his part was taken because stockholG-
ers in the paper did not approve OF his
editorial management, in that he per-
mitted communications to appear in the
paper containing the sentiment or con-
clusions of the higher criticisms of the
Bible. Dr. Garrison has been editor of
the Christian Evangelist and OF tie pa
per which preceded it for more than 80
years. No action has yet ebeen taken
on the resignation.

Here comes The talk of dividend
again on the common stock of the
American Steel & Wire Co. 1t is based
on the circulation of figures showing
some extraordinary profits in the last
few months There is no doubt about
the material advance in its value, and,
indeed, people who ought to know and
who have long been identified with the
company, say the stock is worth more
than when it was selling at 20. Those
who are buying today have reasonable
expectation to see the stock go even
higher than that

Senator Hoar is a republican and has

The Boston squaw men have made an
attempt to number him among them,
but he is not of that cult When SEN
ator Hoar has differences with the
party, he will fight them out within the
party. He is not bolter, and he has nc
sympathy with mugwumps, no matter
under what flag they march.

It has always been general belief
that 8 per cent beer was a sort of harm
less beverage that could be handled like
spring water, but Kendall Foresell of
Attleboro doesn't think so. He drank a
lot last Sunday, made especially for the
drug store trade in Providence. That
night he was a guest at one of the
hotels there and woke up shy of his
memory and s51. 1t is just possible that
the legislature, II attention is called to
Foreselps case, may take a new view
of per cent beer.

The names of IS legal voters were
attached to the petition last night pre-
pared by local labor unions for pres

IMPROVING THE WIND.
High School Foot Ball Men Sent for a
Long Run.

The high school foot ball team prac-
ticed yesterday afternoon for the first
time since its game with Gardner, Sat
urday. All the regular players did not
appear for work, and no line-up was
attempted. Coach Herbert directed the
players in punting and catching punts.
The game in Gardner showed the team
short on staying qualities, principally
through lack of wind. and an effort was
made to remedy that defect in con-
dition yesterday. After the practice,
the team was taken for a two-mile
run on Park avenue
The team will play the Springfield
high in that city, Friday, and Manager
Rebboli will make an effort to get on
game with some team in that vicinity
