LITERARY NOTES.

The fifth volume of Professor j. 8, Me-
Masters History of the People OF the
United States" which Is to be issued inl-
mediately by ID. Appleton a. Co.. covers
a period of our history between 1921 and
1880, which In many Of its phases has re-
ceived but scant attention. The close OF
Monroe's term. tho administration of
John Quincy Adams. and the stormy
opening years of Jackson form an epoch
of peculiar interest in view of the de-
yelOpment OF the democratic spirit, the
manifestations OF u new interest in social
problems. tho experiments in banking
and finance, the improvements i'm the con-
ditons of city life, the changing relations
between the east and west. and the au-
thor's full and striking presentation of
the literary activity of the country at
that time. The volume opens with the
Oregon dispute, and traces the growth
of the Monroe doctrine. After reviewing
the important foreign relations of Mon
rOe's second term, Professor McMaster
returns to domestic affairs, discussing
the breaking up of the Republican party.

does not appear. TO those who have
this in mind we offer the suggestion
that "Connellism" in the person of it's

may not long hence be up for office
and ready to take without flinching
all the hammering that is in store for
it. This fight which is to be settled
tonight is fight for experienced and

strength had marked sympathetic ef-
feet on all the metal stocks, all the
more SO on account of the extreme de-
preston from which they have long
suffered. There was a large demand
from an eager short interest in sugar
and the prevailing cold weather re-
suited in a sudden jump in the price
Of the coalers. In the railroad list
and the grangers and all the Pacific
and Southwestern stocks were in no
table demand, but the whole list was
strong. The only thing to account for
the sudden drop of liz in Pittsburg,
Cincinnati, Chicago & st. Louis, was
a report of a new Pittsburg-Chicago
line in contemplation. Chesapeake &
Ohio was heavy perhaps in sympathy.
The first two hours of trading recorded
as many sales as the recent average
for a full days business. While the
market is still largely professional,
the calibre of the operators is obvious
ly much heavier than those recently

ers in Pittsburg is being attended by
C. W. Franzheim and other representa-
tives of the local potteries. An Asso-
ciated Press telegram from Pittsburg
last night said:
The United States Potters Associa-
tion held it's annual session here to-
day with about forty manufacturers
present. Most of the day was spent in
hearing reports Of committees. A prop
osition to revise the price list and es-
tablish a system of discounts which
would mean a slight advance in prices
was defeated.
A committee was appointed to confer
with tie railroad people to bring about
a restoration of freight classification
from the third class to fourth class,
where it formerly was.
The subject of forming a comblna-
ton of all the potteries in the country
was not considered.
