The increase in the cost of living is
beginning to attract general atten-
ton and is eliciting various eXplGna-
tions. comments the North American.
The rise in prices is general Meat,
salt, carpets, print cloths, hardware,
coal and other staples have gone up
so much within the last few months
that the movement cannot be ignored.
According to one class of thinkers,
this rise is caused entirely by the
Vaccinations of the trusts, and hence
is wholly evil. Others hold that the
trusts merely register the operations
of the law of supply and demand
Times are good, production cannot
keep pace with consumption, and
prices naturally 90 up, as they would
if there were no such thing as trade
combination in existence.
Doubtless there is some truth in
each OF these theories. Times are
brisk, strong demand tends to force
up prices, and the trusts send them
up even further
But may we not be feeling the
effect Of another Influence, more
general still Is not the enormous
increase in the worlds production OF
gold within the last few years bring
ing us into such another period OF
rising prices a. followed the discovery
OF America, and later the develop
ment of the mines of California and
Australia
To say that prices have gone up il
simply another way Of saying thai
the value of money has gone down
Aud how could it be expected thai
the value of money would fail to gC
down when the volume of gold added
annually to the worlds stock hai
doubled in six years
If it turns out that the downward
tendency Of prices, which was Mr.
Bryan's chief stock in trade in 1896
mas been not only checked but re
versed by the production Of gold, vii
not cam paign for the free coinag'
of silver be carried on under con
siderably greater Disadvantages mex
year than before And if the rise b,
attributed to the malevolence Of thu
trusts, will it not be embarrassing t
denounce those combinations 70
raising prices and simultaneously ad
vocate free silver as means Of push
ing prices still higher

Capetown Aug 21-The Transvaal
government, it is reported here, has
handed its reply to the British agent
at Pretoria, to be forwarded to Sir
Alfred Miner. British high commits
sioner for South Africa and governor
of Cape Colony Conflicting accounts
are given as to its contents and it is
possible that the report is premature
and that the reply will be delayed,
owing to the trouble with Portugal
about the transport of ammunition,
consigned to the Transvaal, now in
Delagoa bay. Strong feeling has been
aroused here by the fact that the
Transvaal is sending large quantities Of
war material for distribution among
its supporters in Cape Colony and the
Orange Free State. Over seven tons
have been landed at Port Elizabeth.

GERMAN BEET SUGAR.
Better For America 60 Buy German
Product Than Sugar From Java.

Better For America 60 Buy German
Product Than Sugar From Java.
Washington, Aug. 2t.--Baron Won
Herman, agricultural expert of the Ger
man embassy, is Just back from two
months visit to Germany, during
which period he had opportunity to
note the development of the agrarian
movement which is having such
marked influence on German affairs,
including the question of exporting
German beet sugar to the United
States.
Concerning the agrarian movement
Baron Won Herman said: ut is very
strong and is turning its attention to
the interests of the agricultural classes
of Germany. The sugar question is
essentially an agrarian one. Our sugar
interests are seriously injured by the
tax and countervailing duties in the
American tariff law, and the agrarians
hold that this not only prejudices their
industry, but that it is a discrimina-
ton against them. In the final analy-
sis 1t comes down to this simple ques-
ton: Shall there be q development
of the cane industry of uncivilized,
semi-barbarous countries, or shall
there be a continued use of the sugar
products of civilized countries, which
are able to buy something in return.
AS the United States does not pro-
duce the sugar actually required by
consumers, a supply must come from
some outside source. Now, is It not
to the interest of this country to buy
Of the German producers, rather than
turn to the cane industries of Java,
for example, when Java can give lit
tie or no return for the purchases made
of her 2"

that time the so passengers on board
had a trying experience. The saloon
was flooded. the passengers were wet,
bed raggled and sick. some of the wo-
men were hysterical and some of the
men not much better. The doors and
windows were battened, but every mo-
ment during the fiercest of the storm
1t was feared the skylights would be
broken in and let the waves through.
At one time the danger of fire was
added to the horror of the storm and
the ship and her company faced death
from the fury of all the elements. Fri
day morning the electric light wires
set fire to the casing in the after COM
panion way The fire worked its way
along the casing to the main saloon.
The alarm was given and the call to
quarters was sounded. The storm was
still at its height, but the crew re-
sponded quickly to the call and the
fire was subdued The only casualties
were to the captain and first officer.
