NO COUNT AND NO ACCOUNT.

Count CasteIlane, Anna GouIds' hus-
band, is no account anyway, but &C
cOrding to ViscOunt de Roger he is no
count. De Roger is an expert on
French heraldry and this is what he
says: HThe CasteIlanes have no right
to the title they are wearing, and the
young American woman who is called
Countess de Castellane is really not a
countess. The title Of CasteIlanes died
out long ago. The present Castellanes
belong to a good family, and when their
titled namesakes, who were not even
relasives, died out, these assumed the
title" The bogus count is getting away
with Gould millions, is a spendthrift
and some on clothes. He would make
a good dummy for a Jew clothing store.
The Castellanes recently landed in
New York with IA trunks, enough to
contain the wardrobe of a frst-class
theatrical troupe. The Gould millions
were accumulated by wrecking other
peoples fortunes, and, if the count
could work the gold brick racket on
the family and sell bogus title for an
American heiress, and then squander
her dOwry, it fits well into the idea Of
the irony Of fate.

The New York Tribune says Of the
appeal of the able Filipino leader Ma
bini for a hearing for his people by
congress: "The government holds an
impregnabIe position while it main
tains that there can be no treating or
negotiation with rebels in arms" A
rebel is "One who takes up arms against
the authority Of a government to which
he owes allegiance" Did the Filipinos
ever acknowledge allegiance to the
United States? Can the allegiance"
Of 100000 people be bought and sold
like property? As for mot treating or
negotiating with rebels in arms" did
not President Lincoln do this, not
merely Oy accredited representatives
but personally? What warrant is there
for this high and mighty attitude of
Mckinley that he will secure peace
only by killing or subjugating all who
act on Patrick Henry's motto, ''Give
me liberty or give me death?"

The late G. P. Huntington's art col
lection, if it were sold at auction, would
probably bring $2,000,00O. In the
course of the last six years his COM
missioners have spent about $2S0,000,
it is said, in buying the works of Amer
lean artists. Within the last six months
he bought an 'old master" for $50, 900.
III his collections are paintings by
Meissonier, Millet, Troyon, Rosa Bon
heur, Rousseau, Sir Frederick Leigh
ton and Landseer. One part of his col.
lection is a series of pictures Of Roman
Catholic prelates from popes to bish-
ops, for which he paid $4,000 francs.
His gallery contains also many of Gus
tave Dore's works. Fine tapestries
were always sought by Mr.. Huntington.
One piece now in his home as por,
there was designed by Teniers and cost
10000 francs. The collection includes
also miniatures and bric-a-brac.

TRADE REPORTS,

New York;. G. Dun & Co.'s Re
view Of last weeks trade says:
The sky was not cIoudless, but there
was no backward movement of bust
ness last week. The chief drawback
Of the week was the intense heat in
some sections of the west, which was
more efficient in retarding business
than the lower temperature east, which
is stimulating it. Crop advices con-
tinue as cheerful as at any time lately,
and the labor situation shows no i'm
portant changes in working forces.
Prices are steady, but there is talk Of
a decline, perhaps $40 per ton, in steel
rails shortly to basis at which it is
believed the railroads will be willing to
place orders for the ensuing years sup
plies.
More good news comes from the
great iron centers, where bridge and
boat-builders and makers of agricul-
tural implements, stoves and cast-iron
pipe are all eager to secure finished or
partially finished material. Prices are
sustained, and in a few cases move up
ward. Iron generally is already solid
and better balanced market than for
two months past. Reduction in the out
put of pig iron is having the desired
effect at most northern points, although
at the south stocks are still heavy and
complaint is heard of prohibitive
freight rates to the seaboard Large
export business is waiting and foreign
buying of finished material continues
large.
Production of coke has been de-
creased to 143,9S0 tons weekly in the
Connellsville region. Another sharp
decline has taken the price of tin to
3015c, but copper is firm.
Wheat declined still further on Sat
urday, touching the lowest price since
early in June and making the fall
1j@sc from the top point Of the season,
about two months ago. Vigorous mar
keting by farmers shows their willing
ness to sell at current prices, receipts
at primary markets during three weeks
amounting to 19,999,900 bushels,
against 10,633,0 51 bushels last year.
Daily figures of exports continue light,
luClC ID iluCL ldlh VI pul-
chases for foreign account Prices re-
covered from the lowest point, traders
on the short side taking profits freely.
Corn is steady, but drop last week
makes the present price only cents
above that of 1899.
Sales of wool at the three chief east
ern markets have increased to 5,062,-
500 pounds in the week previous. To-
day wool was active in Boston and
territory goods are all firmly held,
though prices are nominally I'M
changed. There is no pressure to sell,
some dealers shipping east with in
structions to hold until after election.
Factories are still working only part
time in the eastern boot and shoe dis
tricts, and it is evident that earlier es-
Inmates of accumulated stocks were
much too small. There is more activ-
ity in the hide market and prices are
sustained by strong foreign quotations,
activity in Chicago by California tan
ners and favorable purchases for har-
ness
