Senator Chambers omnipotence, says
Washington dispatch in the New York
Post, gives point to a story which has
just leaked out of q woman prominent in
Washington society who at the opera the
other day, leaned forward from her box
and tapped Senator Chandler with her
fan. AS he looked up she said:
''Sena tor, 1 want you to do me favor"
"What is that?" asked Mr.. Chandler.

friend, Mr.. Clark of Montana. Don't let
them expel him.
THAT is matter which rests wholly
with the Senate. 1 am only one member

THE BUSINESS ouTLooK.

While there are expressions of amaze
ment at the steadily increasing volume Of
our export trade the commercial agencies
report a decline in domestic business.
1t is certain that our export trade for the
fiscal year ending June 80, will greatly
exceed that of any previous year. For
the fiscal year 1899, the value of our export
trade was Sl.227, O2S. SO2. For the present
fiscal year it will closely approach $780,
100000
There are several reasons advanced for
the shrinkage in domestic business
One is that as summer approaches bust
ness always gets dull. Another is that
owing to the very high prices consumption
has been reduced. Therefore there has
been a closing Of mills in some localities.
Still another is that production has been
stimulated to such an extent by the high
prices that there has been overproduction,
and there is likely to be a period of dull
ness until the market is relieved of part
of its burden. The reason that is ac
cepted by many, however, is that a period
of reaction is at hand, and that bust
ness is gradually settling down to it's
normal basis, the boom being practi-
cally over.
No one is of course prepared to say ex-
actly what the reason for the shrinkage
is or whether this shrinkage is only tenn
porary, or is likely to continue until hard
times are reached again. The probabili-
ties are that prices got TO be so high that
consumption was greatly reduced. Pro-
dGction went on, however, while consump-
ton was declining. The markets there
fore have become congested. If produc-
ton is reduced for little while it is prob
able that the demand will be again fairly
active, and that business will continue to
be good. But it is quite certain that for
some time prices are much more likely
to fail than to advance

New Police Catechi.m.

Imagine a class of about forty stalwart
men each dressed in a blue uniform and
attentively listening to the words of wis
dom that emanate from their teachers
lips, and you will have some idea of one
of clerk of the Police Board Harrison's
school classes, says the Cincinnati En-
quirer. Many ridiculous answers are Civ
en- in answer to questions and some OF
them cause roars of laughter to ascend
to the ceiling. At a recent class meeting
Officer Dan Tehan was asked to describe
the requisites of a good policeman. The
answer was honesty, sobriety, truthful
ness, intelligence and several other viz
tues, all of which are noticeable In mem
bers Of the police force. In fact strang-
er to this city once said that If a police
man possessed all Of these qualifications
there would be no necessity for him to
carry a lantern about at night. The halo
about his head would furnish sufficient
light for all purposes.
After Tehan had been asked the ques-
ton he chested out and answered in a SON
orous voice.
"Hon-isteei Sobrietee! Trootfullness!
Guide mor-ruls! Impar-rtialitee! Intilli-
s-nce! A plazin' addhriss-an'-er-um

A roar followed the answer, and Clerk
Harrison. cndeavoring to keep his face
straight, asked: ''Officer Blanchard. what

CURRENT COMMENT.

whats the matter with the mayors?
The Mayor of Atlanta has been asked to
resign because of bad personal conduct.
The Mayor of Philadelphia has been
asked TO resign because OF the accusation
lying against him of being a party before
and after the fact in an attempt TO
blackmail John Wanamaker. The Mayor
of New York is mixed up to the extent
of 400 shares of stock in an attempt
to compel the poor of this city to pay
an exorbitant price for ice. At the same
time, because a mayor here and there
goes wrong is no sign that pubic virtue
is not holding its own"

Gen. Butler bore the brunt of the early,
disheartening days of the war in South
Africa. He was in position to receive all
of the blame for the British disasters, and
mot only the public, but Lord Roberts, Sc
vereiy criticised him. Now, however it
appears that Butler is in a fair way TO win
back any prestige which he may have lost
and besides few laurels for his brow. He
has re-occupied Glencoe and Dundee. and
is driving the Beers out of the country. BY
the time he goes back to England II is
probable that Butler will be one of the
most popular officers of the South African
campaign.
