THE reports of the damage TO the wheat
crop may give some hopes to the Demo-
crats. Calamity furnishes them their
only chance for victory. 1t is well to
bear in mind, however, that about this
time nearly every year predictions are
made that the grain crop will be small
1t is too early in the season yet to form
any judgments as to the extent of the
wheat yield which will be good for any
thing. After its recent heavy crops the
country could stand a small grain yield
better than it could have done at almost
any time in the past, but it is reasonable
to hope that fortune will be kind to us.
Moreover, it would take pretty exten-
sive and varegated lot of calamities to
overcome the Democratic discredit and
give that party any chance to carry the
country.

THE trade papers are all enthusiastic
over the business situation. They say,
what every intelligent person knows to
be true, that trade was never more active
in the United States than il is at this mo-
ment. The outlook, too. is that this ac-
tivity will increase instead of diminish.
Bank clearances, railroad earnings and
production in all The leading industries
are at the highest figures ever touched.
Labor is more actively employed than
ever before, and wages have been adj
vanced all along the line in the past few
months. 1t is no wonder that the Bryan
ties are dissatisfied with these conditions.
In this period of great industrial prosper
ify the calamity party has no chance to
delude the people into giving it control
of the government.

OUT in the town of New Castle there
are now in operation twenty tin plate
mills, employing several thousand hands,
and there are excellent prospects that the
town will soon have several more. To
the Inquirer this fact appears to be wor-
thy of mention, for not less than five or
six reasons-the first of which is that the
FREQ traders maintained that tin plate
could not be manufactured in the United
States. A second reason is that these
twenty mills are giving employment to
American labor, and, well, never mind
the rest. They will keep-for time

LEVI WELLS, Dairy and Food Com
missioner, says that his agents have dis
overed that not only has embalmed
beef been brought into the State for sale,
but that Pennsylvania butchers have
been buying chemicals to freshen stale
meats. This practice began in Philadel-
phia and Mr.. Wells fears that it has
spread over the State, because chemical
companies have had agents on the road
selling the stuff, which is put up in pack
ages bearing directions for its use. AS
Mr.. Wells points out, the practice of ap-
plying preservatine to meat is a danger
Gus one. very small quantity is likely
TO injure the stOmachs of delicate persons
and children, and i'm the hands of men
unskilled in its application, the acid
could easily be used in proportions dan
gerous to every consumer OF meat The
commissioner believes that the suits al
ready entered will have a strong tonden-
cy TO keep doctored meat out of the State
aud to stop similar practices in Pennsyl-
vania; but consumers should satisfy
themselves that the meat they buy is not
treated with acids. A little judicious in
vestigatiOn Of their butchers on the part
Of the patrons will help to discourage the

JAMES S. FRUIT, collector of internal
revenue of Pittsburg, is quoted as saying
that the govern ment has made botch of
the counterfeit cigar stamp business. The
premature publicity given the matter by
the newspapers has doubtless prevented
the seizure of three times as many cigars
bearing fraudulent stamps as have been
found. 1t is thought by collector fruit
that 20, 200 cigars in the Pittsburg district
bear the counterfeit stamps. 1t is said
that all cigars bearing bogus stamps will
be sold at auction and the buyer com
PEELED to stamp them.

Unconstitutional.

BY decision handed down on Monday
in the supreme court at Philadelphia the
direct inheritance tax law of 1897 was de-
clarsd unconstitutional, and the orphans
court of that county, where the question
was raised, will be enabled to push to a
settlement a great mass of business
which has been shelved, pending the liti-
CATION of this important subject. Since
the law first became operative great
number of estates came under its provis-
ion, in all of which the orphans court de-
clared against the consttutionality of the
act, and has since been awaiting the rul-
ing ofthe higher tribunal. Several cases
came TO the supreme court on an appeal
from tn commonwealth, and these are
all terminated by the decision given in
the estate of Marmaduke G. Cope. The
opinion was written hy chief Justice
Sterrett.

GENERAL MARKET REPORT
peciai Dispatch 10 The Evening Star.

Special Dispatch The Evening Star.
NEW YORK. February 22.-The London
market was opened at substantial advances
over Tuesdays closing parity, and sus-
picfon prevailed that local operators Were
the instigators of the advance. Subsequent
developments tended so confirm this view,
even though the London settlements uncov-
cred a considerable short interest.
Realizing was a conspicuous feature of
the trading at the advance. and the early
afternoon was given over to a pretty gen.
eral reactionary movement.
Manipulation was pronounced in a few of
the leading industrials, and new prices were
recorded in some of them. American To-
bacco fiuctuated rather violently, and posi-
tive statements of a mutual agreement be-
tween this company and its newly incor-
porated rivals failed to attract any con-
siderable outside interest.
The price of the stock was made to cross
$50, and any coveted figure might as easily
have been recorded.
The selling of the railway list became
pretty general during the afternoon, and
was influenced to some extent by Wash
ington advices predicting a possible bond
issue
Such rumors are the outcome of the yari-
Gus appropriation bills and the extra ex-
demands OF the country's territorial growth
and the attendant expensive administrative
obligations. Commission houses and trad
ers both Joined in this selling movement.
Atchison issues We're sold pretty freely to
take profits and stock was encountered in
liberal supply at every advance.
The hign-priced granger shares sold off
easily, st. Paul and Burlington giving evil
dence af liberal offerings at all times.
Southern properties, which are beginning
to reflect the evils of the recent unprece-
dented storm in their reports of earnings
were sold for both accounts.
The Coal stocks were as well sustained as
any. and general confidence in higher
prices growing out OF new trade conditions
was manifest. The Iron and Steel enter
prises made some progress toward i'm
provement and almost daily continue to add
to future prospects by reporting new or
ders for their especial products.
The immediate market is subject con-
corning which experienced operators are at
variance. Profit taking is relied upon by
some to continue until short selling shall
have been added in the proportions neces-
sary to make movement against the
short interest worth while.
Others incline to The opinion that a double
movement is likely, pronounced advances
Tor special cause ard moderate reactions
inspired by a cautious concern for the flu
tire. New questions are arising and must
be met, and some of the largest traders
are disposed to await the solution of these
questions with only a small line of specu-
lative risks outstanding.

NOT DEMANDED BY GERMANY
The Removal of Chief Justice Cham
bers of Samoa.

No demand has been made by the German
government for the removal by the United
States government of Chief Justice Cham
bers of Samoa. Nor is it true that either
the United States or the British govern
ment has demanded the removal of the
German president of the municipal council
Dr. Raffel, and the German consul at Apia,
Mr.. Rose.
The acts of these officials have been the
subject of criticism, and it has gone to the
point that suggestion has been made
from each of the two sides into which the
issue has divided the tripartite powers that
about the most satisfactory and quickest
way to restore harmonious relations and
insure a peaceable administration in Sa-
moa would be to withdraw all of these
officials; to wipe out all old scores and get
rid of that element of ill feeling between
the officials which has undoubtedly done
much to cloud the relati between Ger
many and the United States.
AT the same time, as already stated there
have been no demands made on either side:
there have been nothing but intimations
ard suggestions, and what the result will
be it is not possible to forestall.
BY this time if the German promise has
been carried out. one of these factors has
been removed in the person of Dr. Raffel,
who has been recalled to Germany

BOMBARDMENT OF ILOILO.
Filipinos Claim Fires Were started
by American shells.

PARIS. February 23.-Agents in this city
of the Filipinos have received news from
Hoilo saying that the outbreak Of fire there
was not the work of the natives, but was
started by the American shells. When the
attack commenced. the Fflipinos add, the
foreign residents were endeavoring to per-
suade General Lopez, the Filipino COM
mander, to submit. as Iloilo was not forti-
fed, and was therefore not in a position to
resist the American attack
The whole commercial quarter of noilo
Ii appears was destroyed, with four-fths
of the rest of the town.
Finally. the Filipinos say, the foreign
residents subsequently met, protested
against the bombardment and resolved 10
put in claims for damages.
