plain speech has fully arrived. 1t Is
not to be beloved that Eagan or any

indirectly trying to make a cent Of
money out of the war. We do not
for a momont suppose that there is
any corruption to be unearthed. either
in Eagan's or in any other army bn-
reau. But Eagan's outburst shows
the spirit of hatred and jealousy, dis
cord and essential insubordination
that has existed among men exercis-

and such a spirit, actively at work,
is almost as d~emoralizing to the army
as peculation or frsud.-Reuiew of.

From all quarters the rush fo'
material continues and prices are i'd
vancing.
The reports - to further develop.
ments in the steel interests are in
some measure disturbing to the iron
trade. The coming together OF the
most prominent producers Of soft
steel has progressed to such an eI-
tent that the main features OF the
new National Steel Co. are pretty
we'll settled.
There has been a further advance
in foundry irons in the casts and in
the central west. Bessemer pig has
advanced to $1l and gray forge to
$l0.25, under moderate sales.
The billet market is firm. The
Chicago and Pittsburg mi lie have
advanced steel rails to $40 and they
are also being quoted at 800 in the
east.
The plate market continues strong
and the mills are crowded with orders.
1t is reported that the tube and
pipe consolidation is meeting with
considerable obstacles, both in Pitts
burg and in the east.
Further advances have been made
in the wire trade and business is
active.
The advance in pig iron freight
rates from the southern furnaces has
gone into effect. 1t is so cents a
ton, except on export iron, in which
there will be no advance.
Southern iron is is in good demand
and the export movement continues

A PENDING bill for the resolution
of the Legislative lobby in Wisconsin
is similar in its provisions to tn,
laws on the subject existing in Mas
%sachusetts, Tennessee, California and
West Virginia. The central idea OF
the measure is that lobbyists be reg.
lstered, but a distinction is made be-
tween attorneys who work openly
before committees and the LOBBYISTS
who used third-house methods. The
latter are designated as agents. A
separate register is to be provided for
each class, and the penalty suggest
ed for a violation OF the act is a fine
Of from 800 to 81, ZOO. and a refusal
for three years of the privilege to
lobby. An Arkansas bill for a like
purpose breaks away from establish
lines and provides that each lob
byist be licensed aud wear a badge
engaged at his work.
