Acting Secretary Adee and the Chinese
and Japanese ministers and the French
charge d'atfairs, but these were without
visible results. The impression is that
nothing can be done until the Chinese
themselves have progressed further to-
ward the restoration of a government at
Pekin. Meanwhile military preparations
for winters stay in China go steadily
forward, though officials are careful to
point out that these are only precaution-
ary measures and are not to be taken as
an indication of a final determination on
the part of the government.

RECOVERING THE DEAD
Cremation of the Bodies Telegraph Lines
Again Working Supplies Stead
lily Arriving.

Special to tho Bee.
Galveston, Sept. 1.-THE ninth day
after the storm and still the gruesome
work goes on of recovering the dead
from the gigantic mass of debris that
lies on the south side of what remains of
the city Yesterday 1O7 bodies were re-
covered and cremated. The task of re-
covering bodies that are beneath or
jammed into the immense pile of debris
extending from the eastern to the west
three miles, is Herculean one, and the
most expeditions way of removing the
whole, from sanitary point of view. is
by fire. This, however, considering the
crippled condition of the fire department
and waterworks, would endanger the re-
manning portion Of the city. AS it now
stands, this immense mass of debris,
strewn with bodies and carcasses Of de-
caying animals, is sore menace to the
health of the city and is the most diff
cult problem the board of health has
had to deal with.
Relief supplies are arriving more
steadily and are being distributed as
rapidly as possible.
The telegraph companies are already
getting into better shape and are now
able to quickly dispatch all business
given them.
When the mail service is regularly es-
tablishcd and the railways repaired and
trains in operation, Galveston will again
feel that she is part of the world.

Mr.. Hand the nominee. AS a matter of
fact, a new ballot which would have
been taken had there been fair and
man in the would
probably have given Mr. Hand larger
vote than he received the first time, but
what dissatisfaction exists over the re-
suit must be attributed to the stupidity
or ignorance of the chairman. Mr..

JONES AND HIS COTTON BALE.
How He Get Trust What He Pay

The composite chairman of the Popu-
list Democracy, Senator Jones of Arkan-
sas, is still resenting with considerable
heat the charge that since he is such
important officer of the American Cotton
Company Capital s.. 600, 900; John E.
Searles, lately treasurer of the sugar
trust. grand mogul}, it must be that he
is a high priest in the trust temple, or,
at least, that he is reckless, abandoned
plutocrat- To do Mr.. Jones entire JUS
tice, we suppose that the American Cot
ton Company is not vicious trust which
deserves to be destroyed, any more than
4 number of other corporations of ST.
600, 900 capital in the hands of former
officers of more monopolistic trusts. Pre-
sumably the American Cotton Company
will make all the money it can, will make
dividends, indeed, upon its $1,000, 900 OF
stock. Mr.. John E. Searles be trust
ed to look after little thing like that,
even if Mr. Jones devoteS all of his at
tention for the next three months, for
the next three years, for that matter, to
Populist Democratic politics exclusively.
The phase of Mr. Jones' connection
with the American Cotton Company
which we would like him to explain is
this, rather: How much of the 81 900,
600 of the stock of the company has he
got, how did he get it, and what did he

MANUFACTURERS HAVE

The manufacturers Of the United

workshops, smoking chimneys, factories
cases, the full twenty-four hours with

this; but exact proof is found in the re-

raw materials which they in manu-

Who winks the other eye?
Tut, tut. my son. he's just a man
Like good old Reuben Blue.
Who has his way of doing things,
And knows 4 thing or twoI''
But why does Bryan hate him so,
And Popocrats berate?
Is it because he's old and slow,
And isn't up to date?
Oh no, my son, you bet your life
He's not so very slow,
For when his shoulders to the wheel
The cart is bound to go.
The reason why the Popocrats
Now tremble at his name,
Is cause he did it to 'em once

give for it? Is his name, undoubtedly
an eminent one in some quarters, used in
the board of directors a bait TO catch
investors? Did Mr.. Jones himself pay
par in .-cash money for the stock that
he holds? Is his possession of it, any
part of it, due to the fact that he is in
nuential in the finance committee OF the
United States Senate. and by virtue OF
his position there could do his company,
or Mr.. Searles', or almost any company
of the kind in which he Mr.. Searles
might have an interest, a very important
service at a very critical time?
We have never known a gentleman OF
Mr.. Jones' financial prospects to grow
rich suddenly except by some means of
this kind. In other words, and to be
plain, it is fair to infer, until Mr.. Jones
denies it, that he is it, neither on ac-
count of his cash, nor his property, nor
some invention of demonstrated value,
but rather account of his pull or his
swing We say that it is fair to infer
this until Mr. Jones denies it, because
Mr.. Jones, by reason of his unjust at
tacks upon leading Republicans puts
himself very much in the public eye and
invites attack from any quarter. Mr..
Jones has business to live in glass

The above ia BILE is worthy of careful
study. We have been hearing. for years,
from Democratic orators first, that free
raw materials would help the manufac-
turers. and, second, that a protective
tariff destroys our chances in foreign
markets, yet it will be seen by this table
that the inlportations of Articles in

the Dingley protective tariff they amount
to SIPS. S21 .352. Look also t the narrow
column, which indicates the percentages
of the total imports which these raw ma
terials form, and you will that they
form 4 much greater proportion of the to-
tai imports under the Repu blican system
of protection than under the Democratic
system of free trade Why The
swer is simple enough Under the Dem
ocratic low tariff. absolute free trade in
some particulars, many manufacturers
were compelled either to close their
works or reduce their output owing to
the heavy importation of manufactures
from abroad under the low tariff rates.
Hence the small consumption Of raw
material in manufacturing This differ
ence of more than 500, 600, 600 in the
quantity OF raw materials imported in the
three years means difference of several
hundred millions of dollars in the amount
of goods manufactured and hundreds of
millions in the amount of money paid to
wage earners IN the various manufacture
ing lines.

roast beef, chops, hams, veal outlets,
