Confronted with Questions which
lie Did Not Dare to Answer.
When Mr.. Bryan visited New York
city recently the papers published a
list of questions which they desired
him to answer in his addresses TO the
citizens. But, though the questions
We're perfectly germane and proper as
we'll as important, he paid no attention
to them. The questions were as fol-
lows:
/. Win you, if elected, pay the ma
tional obligations i'll gold or in silver?
=. VIII YOU, If elected make use of
the United States army to forcibly es-
tablsh a stable government for Agui-
naldol
3. Are you in favor Of re-enacting the
Wilson tariff law or one similar there
to-
4. Are you in favor Of DISTINGUISHING
the colored citizens of the south
5. DO you approve of the action of
the Democrats in congress in defeating
the antitrust amendment last June?
6. You have lately gone on record as
opposing life tenure in the civil serv-
ice. How long q tenure would you
permit?
T. You have lately charged the Re
publicans with collecting a large fund
from monopolies and coerciug voters.
WIN you mention any monopoly from
which the Republicans have made such
collection and also mention one specific
case of coercion?

The new building will be used as a

SUGGESTIVE LABOR FIGURES
Proofs of Prosperity shown by Re-
corded Statistics.

Horace G. Wadlin, chief Of the Mas
sachusetts bureau Of labor statistics.
has just issued his fourteenth report
Referring to the 4,740 establishments.
representing s. industries. Of the com
monwealth. Of which the report treats,
Chief Wadlin offers little consolation
to the calamity bowler and has the fol
lowing encouraging information:
The total amount paid in wages IN
the 4, 40 establishments represented in
the IS Industries increased 11G1 per
cent in 1899 as compared with 1898.
In the nine leading industries the fol
lowing percentages Of increase appear:
Boots and shoes, 1916; carpetlngs. 49,
IS; cotton goods, 12.47; leather, 932;
machines and machinery. 24Sg; met
ais and metallic goods, 1876; paper,
4.33; woollen goods, 1.G3, and worsted
goods, 1899 The increase for the nine
leading industries, in the aggregate, is
1881 per cent The average yearly
earnings per individual, without re-
SUI W. ia VI tiSNs tilBibJ VI III tl4F %
industries, were $419.91 in 1898 and
$427.71 in 1899. an increase of $3.50 or
Is per cent in the latter year.
Savings bank statistics are always
interesting and important. as they
show the decline or rise Of the surplus
earnings of the people and may be ac-
ccpted as a pretty sure indication of
the condition Of the wage earners and
the small tradespeople. In 1855. the
year of Harrison's election. the per
capita deposits were S22.15. In 1892
they were $2611, an increase of 1896
Four years later they were S2G.6S. an
increase of - cents. In 1899 they
were $29.24 an increase of $25G. and
if the same rate be maintained through
the fourth year of McKinlcy's admin
istration the increase will be S341.
TO summarize. the amounts per capita
which the people of the United States
have been able to add to their savings
are as follows:

FIREMEN
KEPT BUSY
Three BIazeS, Now They Will
Probably Take a Rest.
Barn Belonging to Foster & Wise
Destroyed Gabriel Lano's Tailor
Shop Gutted These F ,IIowed
Close on the Hospital Fire.

Three times and out is the usual
order, and now that Morristown has
been visited by three fires in the last
two weeks it is to be supposed that the
department will get rest.
The last fire was in Gabriel Lano's
tailor shop, at No. "a Ann street, and
occurred Monday night about $50
O'Clock. The fire was caused by
lighted hanging lamp which suddenly
fell to the floor without warning. The
lamp broke as it fell and instantly
the oil was ablaze and filed the in
terror of the shop. Lano and his work
man ran for their lives and gave the
alarm, which was turned in from
box No. AZ, at Roy's drug store.
The fire department responded
quickly ana the Chemical was soon on
the scene. Two streams were thrown
into the building, and almost instantly
the blaze was extinguished and smoul-
dering cloth only remained.
AT this time Washington engine
appeared and made ready to throw a
stream into the building, but at the
request of the foreman of the chemical
no stream was thrown. 1t was plain
to be seen that the fire was PRACTICAL
ly out, and that it did not require any
water to further extinguish it. How
ever, when the Humanes arrived they
would listen to no one. and turned q
big stream in, flooding the place.
They were asked not to throw water,
but they had come there for the pnr-
pose of putting out fire and they
had to have their fling. AS a conse-
quence, more damage was done by
water than by fire. The loss was
about 50, 000 partly covered by in
suranee
At the request of several members
of the Chemical their secretary has adj
dressed letter to the members of
Washington Engine Company, thank
ing them for their gentlemanly con-
duct in keeping off with their stream
when asked to do so.

Horse frightened by AutomobiIes-Aaro
Drake meets quick Death.

Aaron Drake, a well-known farmer
of Mendham, was thrown from his
carriage Saturday afternoon and in
stantly killed.
Mr.. Drake was driving up South
street and was near Pine when two
automobiles going at moderate speed
passed him. The horse became fright
ened at the first motor carriage and
started to run. When the second
appeared he became unmanageable
and ran away. Mr.. Drake was thrown
out and struck head first on the stone
curb, breaking his skull.
DR.. Lewis was sent for, but could
do nothing, as Mr.. Drake had died
almost instantly.
In the first automobile were Fred
Carhuff and his neice; in the second
were Jacob Henry Dawson and Mr..
Frisby, all of Newark.
Coroner Leonard was notified and
took charge of the case. Messrs. Car
huff and Dawson appeared at the in
quest and were exonerated from all
blame. The jury brought in a verdict
of death by unavoidable accident.
The funeral was held at his late
residence in Mendham Tuesday
morning at II 80.
Mr.. Drake was an elder in the Pres
byterian church of Mendham and a
man beloved by all who knew him.
He is survived by widow and three
Willis O., John F. and
Mary F. The bereaved family have
the heartfelt sympathy of the entire
community.

long been prominent in the political
affairs of the Democratic party. Mr..

RULES FOR ROAD DRIVING.
Several Amendments to Those Govern.
ing the New York Association.

Several Amendments to Those Govern
ing the New York Association.
With the experience gained in giving
three matinee meetings, the Road
Drivers Association of New York,
of which Dewitt @. Flanagan, Lamont
D. Guerin and others of this city are
prominent members, has reached the
conclusion that some very material
changes must be made, not only in
the rules-or, rather, lack of rules-but
in the method of management if the
matlnees are to be made popular. While
every one of the great crowd which saw
the matinee races at the Empire City
track was pleased so far as the actual
contests were concerned, there was
that about the way in which it was
done and for the lack of good rules,
we'll enforced, that few would care to
journey far to see another such exhi-
bition.
New rules are now being drafted,
which will be presented for adop-
tion at the next general meeting of
the association. Those parts of the
National Trotting Association rules
which relate to racing and such
parts of the Cleveland Driving Clubs
rules as may be considered applicable
will be embodied. 1t is the intention
also to recommend that a paid presid-
ing judge and starter will be employed
for future matinees.
1t has been decided to hold another
matinee September 8. Prizes are to be
given because there are several prizes
on hand, but it is the opinion of the
members that the meetings would be
more successful and harmonious if
ribbons alone were given to the first
four horses.

GOOD FOR FAULKNER.

The Medicos lose their chief artil-
lery piece tomorrow. o. H. Faulkner,
who has done such efficient work in
the box for the State Hospital Field
Club during several seasons past, has
signed with the North Attleborc,
Mass, team and leaves to fill the
position Saturday.
1t is not fiattery to say that Faulk-
ner is one of the best pitchers in the
state. In fact it is doubtful if his
equal can be found among amateurs in
any section of the country. He will
do professional baseball credit, and
it would not be surprising if he never
returned to the hospital, for he is far
too good pitcher to remain long
undiscovered by the big leagues
It may not be many seasons before
Faulkner is with the National League
for there is no telling what he may
develope when he gets chance tc
devote all his time to the game.
In his new position Faulkner gets
big salary cover $3.50 monthly anc
all expenses. His many friends wisf
him we'll.
