Why He Refused consulship

r. L. Huidekoper OF Washington tells
AL amusing story OF disappointed Of
nce-seeker OF years ago.
Back in Sc" says he, when Bu-
ohanan was running for the presidency.
he had an intimate friend in a western
stale who was also a friend OF mine.
This man worked early and late for
Bdchanans causes and really did as
much as any one else TO put his state
in the Buchanan column on election
day.
My friend, whom We will call Smith
had a wife who was an invalid. He
thought that be was entitled to SOME
recognition for the work he had done
as be was-and he applied for consul
late on the coast of the Mediterranean
believing that the soiourn there would
improve his wife's health.
Months went by and he heard moth
Ing of his application, except that il
had been received by the president
Then came the blow. He was notified
that he had been made consul at some
little town in Iceland, Smith sat down
and wrote letter which l saw before
il left, so I can vouch for 1t. The
letter read:
TO One James Buchanan, President
of These United States:
"'Since applying to you some months
ago for consulate on the balmy shores
of the Mediterranean my wife, who was
i'll, has gone to heaven and you Car

Throws "a Ton Shell,

The new 1S-inch Gatham torpedo gun,
the largest ever built in this country,
was tested recently at the Bethlehem
Steel Works to determine the velocity
of the shot and the strength of the
gun and proved successful. Solid shots
weighing a ton were fired. After two
preliminary shots, the third was fired
with a charge of 800 pounds of powder
and showed pressure of 19,045 pounds
and 1856 feet velocity, while the fourth
shell, with the same charge, recorded
a pressure of 1880 pounds and We
locity of 1851 feet The gun is intended
for coast defense. The inventor claims
that it will throw a shell 10 miles.
Guncotton is used in the charges. The
gun is "a feet long and weighs SO tons.

TRADE REPORTS.

New York.-R. G. Dun & Co.'s Re
view of last weeks trade says:
The sky was not cloudless, but there
was no backward movement of BUSH
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
decline, perhaps $40 per ton, in steel
rails shortly to a 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 few cases move up
ward. Iron generally is already solid
pNI1NA
| 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 143,9SO tons weekly in the
Connellsville region. Another sharp
decline has taken the price of tin to
301sc, but copper is firm.
Wheat declined still Iurther on Sat
urday touching the lowest price since
early in June and making the fall
153sc 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 10,693,051 bushels last year.
Daily figures of exports continue light,
although there is much talk of pur-
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 $685.
500 pounds in the week previous. To-
day wool was active in Boston and
territory goods are all firmly held,
though prices are nominally un-
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.
