SULZER Sat ON.
He Tries to Rush Boer Resolution
Through the Rouse.
CENhTU

Washington, May THE senate
| agreed to conferences on the army ap.
preparation bill, the Notifications bill
and the Colorado cooperative colony
bill in respect to desert lands. Mr.. Teller
of Colorado recalled from the table his
resolution expressing sympathy with
the Beers. Mr.. Teller called attention
to the fact that his resolution was a
phrase of the Cuban plank of the Re-
publican national platform of 1896. He
was satisfied that it would be proper
and right to pass such resolution, and
quoted number Of precedents for such
action by the senate. He found a prec-
edent for it in the resolution offered In
the house of representatives by Mr..
Clayton of Kentucky in 1881, in the in
terest of the South American republics,
and in many subsequent resolutions of
similar character. If this resolution
was Objectionable to the senate, he
thought any resolution would be objec-
tionable. Such Intervention as he sug-
gested could not be regarded as hostile
or an unfriendly act.
HOUSE.
Washington, May This was sus-
pension day in the house. Mr.. Sulzer
of New York created a slight furry by
attempting to secure the adoption Of a
resolution expressing sympathy with
the South African republics. He moved
the adoption of his resolution under
suspension of the rules. The chair de-
clined to recognize the gentleman for
that purpose.

GATES DIDN'T RESIGN.
So Two of the Directors Of the Company
Stepped Out.

New York, May AT to-day's meet
ing of the board Of directors of the
American Steel and Wire Company,
Henry w. Seligman and Frederick w.
Straus resigned. Subsequently the fol-
lowing was made public: ITO the board
of directors of the American Steel and
Wire Company-Gentlemen We to-day
resigned from the directory Of the
American Steel and Wire Company be-
cause John w. Gates did not at to-day's s
meeting retire from the management
of the company, as we had been given
to understand he would. Our reasons
for continuing to act as directors until
now may perhaps deserve further ex-
planation On the morning of the April
meeting of the board we received as
surances from sources on which we
thought ourselves entitled to rely that
the resignation of Gates as chairman
would be offered about May 1. While 1t
is true by continuing in the board we
exposed ourselves to possible mtscon-
structions, we risked this in the belief
that by delay we should accomplish
that which every one must recognize as
demanded by the best interests of the
company, namely-Gates' retirement
from the management; and we realized
that under the bylaws of the com.
pany to force Gates retirement was
practically impossible, and that these
assurances promised more substantial
results than the contemplated attempt
to force his immediate resignation
Gates, however, continues to contro
the company, and under these circum'
stances 1t becomes impossible for us
longer to continue in the directory, and
in order that the stockholders of the
company may fully understand botf
our reasons for continuing in the boart
and for resigning from it, we shall give
such publicity to this letter as we may
think proper. Yours truly,

the greatest combinations have been
formed is precisely the one which has
attracted the most competition within
the past two years. For example there
have been formed eighteen new iron
and steel corporations. with capital
ranging up TO 5000 900; the paper
trusts have invoked six new corpora
tons, of from 81 10000 to 5000, 900
capitalization; the smelling trust, four;
the match trust, four; baking powder,
three, and others in proportion.
The conclusion naturally to be
reached is that the fears of monop :
lization of any particular field Of enter
prise by any Of the newly created trusts
are without foundation, for ifthey seek
excessive profits they will be met by
fierce competition of other capital eager
to share i'm these profits; and that the
proper and legitimate province of trade
combinations on large scale is to in
duce economy in operation, in produc-
ton and in distribution, with resulting
lower prices to the consumer, without
affecting injnriously the standard Of
wages. The people can afford to look
with colnplacency upon the growth of
such combinations as this, for on their
successful operation depends the ability
of the manufacturers Of the United
States to take large share of the trade
of the world away from their European
competitors, while maintaining the
American standard of wages.-Post-

The States Prosperity.

The Pacific northwest is forging to the
front agriculturally, industrially and
commercially, and the state of Washing
ton is steadily i'm the foreground in the
advance i'm population and Importance.
The harvest in this state, now being rap
idly pushed to completion, while not re-
markable for the breaking of bumper
crop records i'm particular lines of staples,
is on the whole a most satisfactory one,
and presents uniformity throughout all
sections that will make it an excellent
business promoter. Washington has pro-
duced more wheat than this season, but
probably only once in her history. She
has raised more hops, but this seasons
crop is a good one and will bring fair
prices. More prunes have been secured
in the leading producing districts, but the
fruit crop has never brought larger re-
turns to growers, nor shipments been
more profitable. The Oat and hay CIR ops
are making splendid returns assisted by
heavy purchases OH government account.
Dairy farming has never been SO uni
formly profitable as during this season,
and the progress Of the industry is being
stimulated. Returns from farming Oper-
atiOns have been we'll distributed and the
aggregate is satisfactory, while the break
ing away from the one crop idea is, a fac
tor of decided importance. Every season
shows distinct gain in manufacturing.
The record of revenues derived from the
lumber and shingle industry will show a
large gain this year over that of any sea-
son in the past. Washington Touring
mills have increased their output from so
to 60 per cent. Other industries are stead
lily springing up. and contributing to the
building of fiourishing cities and thriving
towns. Coal nines will market an in
crease of 20 to q per cent as compared
with former years, and the continued and
steady growth of commerce, both foreign
and domestic, is sending Puget Sound to
the fore i'm a way that shows the time not
far distant when we shall do a larger ex-
port and import traffic than any other
section of the coast. The conditions are
favorable to an excellent fall and winter
trade for tho merchant, and the volume Of
present distribution is contirmatOry proof
that is is to be realized. Things gen.
orally are conspiring against the knOcker
and the pessimist this year, and there is
something wrong i'm the constitutional
makeup of the man who can hold out as
a chronic kicker under present cOndi-
tions.-West Coast Trade.
