Mill VIII Not Close Down.

D. A. Merriman, president and gen.
eral manager of the nail mill at Ever
EFT, WASH, received word from the
headquarters of the American Steel
Wire Company, in Chicago, that 2, 500
tons of wire rods were about to be
shipped to Everett fol- the mill at that
point. This mill has been running
night and day for the past two weeks,
and there is not enough wire rods on
hand to keep it running more than a
month longer, SO it was feared that
the mill would have to shut down, but
this shipment of rods, however. will
be sufficient to keep the mill running
continuously for at least three months.

L. L. Daus will establish branch
OF the famous Daus bottling works, of
Boise. Idaho. at Weiser, and will open
at that point in the manufacture of all
kinds of carbonite drinks. He has
with him complete soda plant and
bottling outfit, and will be prepared to
do large wholesale BUSINESS. It is
thought that this branch establish

Southeastern Oregon Wool.

The wool market has opened up in
Red Bluff, and the prevailing prices
range from 81 to cents for fall clips.
and IL to IL cents for the spring clips,
only a small quantity selling at the
top price. 1t is expected that by the
end of the week the whole spring clip
of Tehama county will be in. 1t is
evident that the Lake county market
will not be as lively as that of the
spring of '98, owing to the fact that
there still remains SO much unsold
wool. Figures gathered from the vari.
GUS wool centers of Oregon give total
of 6, 600, 900 pounds remaining unsold
from the clip of 1898.

HOW MONOPOLIES ARE RESTRAINED.

The memorable law which restraints all sorts
Of combinations is that no more money can be
spent than the entire body of consumers earn.
An advance in the price Of anything compels
them to cut down purchases of that thing, or
else of something else. If that thing has ad-
vanced abnormally, other things rising less or
not at all. 1t is a law Of human nature that the
purchases of the thing which has been excep-
tionally advanced will be curtailed rather than
purchases Of things which have advanced less
or not at ALL Every retail dealer knows how
hard 1t is to make his usual sales Of any cloth
at a few cents a yard higher than before, or of
any shoe at few cents higher pair. The pur-
chases drop and the buyers take other cloths or
other shoes. If all shoes advance the purchases
drop and consumers wear fewer shoes of all
sorts. To each buyer II is a small matter, II
may be said, but 1t is the difference between
what he has and what he has not He earns In
year certain sum, Of which part must be
paid for indispensable things, and the rest must
cover the remaining expenses. II any trHe be
added to one part Of that expense 1t has to be
taken from some other. The decrease in buying
will naturally be by choice In the thing made
dearer.
Men talk Of the resistless power of a great
monopoly. Strictly speaking. the people can
starve out any monopoly In the United States in
less tnan three months. If they stop buying 1t
breaks down or goes bankrupt Its only power
lies IN the fact that 1t may make advances which
are not large enough to cause general curtail-
ment OF the buying. II the people do not OBJ
serve or do not care 1t can gain When they cut
down buying the monopoly asks what It must do
to be saved. In articles of universal use and
frequent purchases every change In nr,,o. A..
jealousy watched In articles bought more
rarely the buyer usually knows what he paid
last time, and II he cannot be satisfied why he
should pay more he steps out and wears the old
coat or pair Of shoes little longer. How great

less attention in Cuba now than 1t did some
months ago, while the practical things accom-
nlished under United States authority com
mand much more. If this is true, the CUBAN
people are actually learning something which
they did not know and which IL was parucu-
larry necessary for them to know. and are De-
coming better qualified to decide In what way
they want to be governed. The great NUMBER
Of persons taken from their homes or usual
ayocations by war and forced to endure e1-
IRENE privation or suffering have to some ex-
tent returned to places where they are known
and to peaceful pursuits. and are better pre-
pared to think Of the good Of the Island than
they were when their two emotions were hun
ger and desire for revenge.
All things considered, patience promises more
than haste. The United States has its plain
duty. TO give the people Of Cuba the best gov
eminent IL can and to show them as well as IL
can what kind of government they need. The
men of business and enterprise have their
work cut out Also to push forward Just as
fast as they can the restoration of industries,
the employment Of the unemployed and the
entire modification Of the country. All the
mower they have to lessen the influence or
demagogues and agitators they need to exert.
Time and patience are doing something, and 1t
seems clearly one of the cases In which the
more haste the less speed"

THE MONEY DERIVED BY HIM FROM hIo

A motion by the trustees in the bankruptcy pro-
ceedings in the of John F. Baudoutne, for an
order directing Theodore Aub, the receiver to decide
whether or not any portion OF the income derived

Yesterday Counsel for the trustees asserted that
under the provisions OF the will Baudouine nad a
vested interest In one-quarter of the income from
the estate left by his grandfather. and contingent
interest In another one-quarter. dependent on the
death OF his uncle.
Baudoune Is his trustee and asserts that

time Of the filing of the petition In bankruptcy
counsel said the petitioner admitted that MS anhua
income from this trust was upward OF S3oVoo
There were unsecured claims stated by MIN
amounting to $4,000 and the petitioner asserts

GENERAL GONSE AND DU PATTY DE CLAM.

GENERAL GONSE AMI ~ FAII LIE Cbhm.
NJ Labori asked General Gonse yesterday
If he had not taken part in an intrigue In favor
of Esterhazy 1T is false! 1t is false" shout
ed the General in passion; and In answer to
another question he added that Esterhazy was
not arrested because General Saussier deemed
II proper to leave him at liberty.
General Gonse was witness at the famous
lola trial At that time NJ. Labor asked him
what was the document emanating from the
War Department that was carried from the
War Offices and given to Esterhazy for his
protection, the messenger being the yelled
lady" General Gonse replied: II cannot an
swer as to that" Why did Esterhazy call 1t
the '1iberating document"f Again the General
said 1T cannot answer" Did General Gonse
know the "veiled lady? mo" Did he make
Inquiries In order TO discover her? 81 cannot
answer these questions" said General Gonse;
they are traps"
The interesting point is that the "veiled lady"
was no other than Du Patty de Clam, one OF
General Gonse's associates In the War Office.
It is not to be wondered at that, as our dis
patches tell us, General Gonse was yesterday
"visbly disconnected at several Of NJ Laborfs
questions" and that his voice grew so faint
that 1t was scarcely audible"
