An Awful ConfiagratiOn.

Saturday afternoon last, while the
immense docks Of the North German
Lloyd steamship company at New
York were crowded with people, they
suddenly caught fire, The crowds
were instantly cut of from any ave-
nue. of escape except by water.
Seon many vessels around the docks
were ablaze and the heat became 81
intense that vessels could not ap.
proach to rescue people. There was
nothing left for them to do but throw
themselves into the water and take
the chances.
Hundreds did this and were rescued
in one way and another but scores
were drowned and many were burned
to death. The loss of life was fearful,
reaching, it is supposed, about 200,
with many more seriously hurt. The
property loss is estimated at 10000, 900
dollars.

The Trouble in China.

The broil in China has grown very
serious. Much fighting has been IN
progress.
The allied forces have been greatly
outnumbeFed but the Chinese are gen.
orally poorly armed and poorly disci-
plined. Something like a hundred
men in the allied forces have been
killed and many more wounded. The
killed and wounded among the Chi
nese must reach into the thousands.
The Chinese have murdered in cold
blood the German minister and de
stroyed the legation buildings at Pc
kin. The whereabouts of the minis
ters of other countries is not known.
Large forces of foreign troops are be-
ing rushed forward to China and un-
less the thick-headed pigtails come to
time at once they will be slaughtered
mercilessly by the thousands.

Kansas City:
The Foreign Market.

The Free-Trade advocates told us
that high tariff would rum our for
eign trade. That foreign countries
would not trade with us If VIC impos-
ed tariff restrictions. The results
have shown that these false prophets
were just as badly off on the results Of
a Wholesome tariff law as they were on
the financial question. Instead of
our exports decreasing under the pro-
tective tariff they have vastly in
creased and the balance has been
greatly IN our favor.
In 1898 we bought of Germany s77,-
600, 900 worth of goods and sold them
sIos, 600, 900 worth, placing a balance
in our favor for one year with Ger
many alone of $50, 100000. That does
not look much like destroying our
foreign trade. does III? The Demo-
Gratis have been proven wrong In every
prophecy they made four years ago.
Does It not follow that they are more
likely TO be wrong again in their pre-

THE CELEBRATION.

The Fourth was appropriately cele-
hrated in Chanute. Early in the morn
ing the sleepy citizens were awakened
by the roar of the cannon and the
crack of the fire cracker.
The business houses and many resi-
dences were decorated with flags and
huntlor. AT an early hour teams
from the country began to arrive and
the citizens of the town came onto
the streets, and by 10 O'Clock the city
was crowded with jolly, good natur-
ed crowd, bent on having a good time
and seeing the sights. The small boy
was always in evidence with his fire
cracker and rubber whistle.
At O'Clock the procession formed
on West Fourth street and marched
to the grove near the Katy depot
where "A speakers stand was erected
aud the various refreshment stands
were arranged. Rev. Pulliam was the
orator Of the day and he delivered an
eloquent and mastery oration. The
only trouble was, the crowd was so
large and noisy that only a compara-
tive few could hear IL. The orator
did his part nobly, and we only regret
that the address could not have been
heard by everybody
After the speaking a large portion
of the crowd went oIhe race track to
witness the various entertainments
proyided there. At night a fine dis
nlay Of fireworks was made from the
roof o. the Delmonico hotel. About
10 o'clock the crowds began to dis
perse and soon the streets were de-
serted bv most of the sight-seers.
1t was an unusually large crowd that
assembled in Chanute, but a julien,
better naiured crowd never assembled
anywhere. No accident or disturb
ance of any kind occurred to mar the
festivities. Everybody wanted fun
and seemed to have 1t. IL was the
best dressed, best looking and best be-
hayed 5000 people we ever saw TO-
Qether on a SIMILAR occasion

Wanted, a Foreign Market,

The increase of American exports is
something of disturbing element in
the calculations of the anti-tariff
prophets. The present tariff was de-
plored as being the handicap to any
real extention of our foreign COM
merce. Curiously enough, the course
of trade development has paid no at
tention to these solemn warnings.
Our exports are greater now than ever
before, indeed our exports to Germany
are increasing at such a rate as to
cause quite little disturbance in the
genial sentiment Of our Teutonic
brethren. Germany used to import
more into the United States than we
sent to Germany, but this has been
radically changed and the balance is
the other way. During the calendar
year of 1898 the value Of the German
exports to the United States was s77,-
10000; during the same year our ex-
ports to Germany were sl63, 800, ,OOO..a
difference in our favor Of $50, 100, 900.
The curious aspect Of it all is that our
free-trade doctrinaries are now be-
ginning to lecture Germany on the
merits of free.trade, assuring the
Germans that our expansion is not
due to our protection and that pro-
lection cannot help Germany. These
people do we'll to seek a foreign mar
ket for their intellectual wares. Ex-
perience is too much for them 10 the

Slight Confusion OF Ideas.

We give below two clippings from
the Blade of last week, one from thu
political column and the other from
the local. The two do not agree verl
we'll as to the causes of the advanc'
in wheat. However they are abou
as consistent as a Democrat usual,
is in his political theories:
Some of Boss Hanna's million.
aire allies have undertaken the
contract Of aiding the Phiiadel-
phia ticket by steadily forcing
the price Of wheat upward during
the campaign, for the purpose Of
trying to propitiate the disgruntl-
ed farmers Of the wheat growing
sections. This may be good
thing for those wheat-growers
who may be able to take advan.
tage Of it, but 1t will have its
risks, both for the wheat growers
and the Republican ticket. If
it should appear at any time to
the millionaire syndicate that
they can make more money by let
ting the bottom drop out Of the
scheme they will be apt to do it.
Millionaires never allow anything
to stand in the way Of accumulat-
Ing other millions.
Local grain agents generally ad-
wise the farmers to hold their
wheat for short time at least,
and not sell to the travelling agents
who are working the state from
the east urging them to sell. In
view Of the failure of the wheat
crop in many Of the principal
wheat producing states, they say
the present price is likely to stand
and that there are good chances
for a marked increase.
