Trade Increased by War.

New York, Oct. 30.-Fears and not
facts made war in South Africa seem
a menace to property here, and week
of conflict has cleared away the fear.
British markets for securities have
been helped by the belief that mining
shares would be worth more with no
Boer control in mining regions. Large
purchases here of ammunition and
meats have swelled the balance due
this country. Money markets have
grown less embarrassing, stocks have
gradually advanced, industries are still
supported by volume of demand for
which no precedent can be found, and
payments through the principal clear
ing houses for the past week have been
,6.6 per cent larger than last year and
'7.3 per cent larger than in 1899.

New York, Oct. 30.-John L. Searles
has gone to attend the convention in
Atlanta in the interest of the movement
to erect bonded warehouses in all
parts of the south where cotton is
raised in any considerable quantity.
If the movement succeeds, it will be
possible for the cotton planters to lock
up their cotton and force up the mar
ket. The scheme will operate as gil
gantic trust, which will absolutely con-
troll the cotton output of the south, and
make it impossible for northern buyers
to get cotton, except at the price the
trust forces them to pay.

Chicago, Oct. 30.-A story, as widely
circulated, runs to this effect: Senator
Mason will resign in a few weeks to
Jake a high-salaried legal position
1000 or more year-with one of the
biggest corporations in the country,
having headquarters in Chicago. Gov
,rnor Tanner will then resign and Lieu
tenant Governor Northcott, on succeed
ing to the governorship, will appoint
Tanner to the vacant senatorship.
With Tanner thus eliminated from the
gubernatorial situation, Northcott can
be made the Organization" candidate,
for governor next year. The interests
which are alleged to be making Senator
Mason their attorney at big salary
with longterm contract are interests
which have friendly feeling for Gov
ernor Tanners future.

rained for three minutes in the sale ring

tioneer Colonel Woods asked for bids,
an offer of $500 was made. Immedi-
atcly spirited contest began, the rep
resentative of Marshall Field of Chicago
finally bidding 5000. Then Colonel
Slaughter of Fort Worth, Tex, stepped
into the ring and, throwing silver
dollar into the sawdust near where
Bonnie Prince stood, called on those
present to ''throw in dollar as a little
present for the brave little woman" Dol
lars fairly rained and when they were
gathered up they filed peck measure.

THAT SUlU TREATY.
Facts About General Bates Deal with
the Sultan.


Washington, Oct, 30.-War depart
ment officials refuse to make public any
of the provisions of the arrangement
made by General Bates with the sultan
of Zulu, the southern most group of the
Philippines, but states that its main
features have been touched upon in the
press reports from Manila. The docu-
ment arrived in Washington about six
weeks ago. Acabinet official says Cen
eral Bates has secured for the United
States the valuable services of the
whole royal family of Sulus for the
compensation of a good clerk, and pro-
vided for the immediate mitigation OF
the conditions of the slaves and their
ultimate emapc patton. Not being IN
actual possession of the Sulu group
land Spain has never been able to OBJ
tain more than nominal suzerainty'
over it, the ability of the United States
commander to effect these things be-
sides preserving peace and opening the
islands to trade, is regarded as COM
mendable.
1t is further said that this arrange
ment is not permanent and Goes not
prevent different treatment OF the is
lands in the future, and still further, it
has not been approved thus far by the
president and may be rejected if it is
deemed proper to do so. The arrange
ment is regarded as purely military
one, fully within the powers of the
American commanding officer to draw
up, and so it will not be submitted to the
senate as would be n treaty, but will be
merely transmitted as matter of in
formation.
