VERY ANIMATED
Speculation In Few Of the Most Prominent
IndustrlaIS.

BY Associated Press.
New York. March S.-There was a
very animated speculation in few
of the most prominent industrials in
the market today, and some large op-
erations in one Of two railroad stocks.
The days activity was much congested
in the quarters indicated Trading in
the general list was small and rather
unimportant, end the movement of
prices was sluggish. The number of
issues dealt in, however. continues very
large, owing to the constant DISPOSE
tion to seek out dormant places in the
general list for an adjustment of val
ues to the changed level in the active
list The market was weak all around,
but the large buying of special stocks
checked the downward tendency ant
caused general recoveries.

THE sCHLEY INQUIRY.

The court of inquiry convened to con-
slider the charges against Rear Admiral
Winfield Scott Schey, growing out of
the Spanish war and the Santiago cam
paign, met it's first reverse yesterday i'll
having one of the three members of the
court dismissed for prejudice against
sichley. This animus was so well estab-
lshed by the testimony of witnesses
that action was taken at once. This is
TIC be commended, for the proceedings
Would somewhat farcial if the court or
any part of it was biased. There is no
reason why fair tribunal should not be
secured and the truth or falsity of the
charges brought out.
There is a general impression among
unbiased readers of current news and
history that Admiral Schley has been
guilty of disobedience of orders or in
subordination or such independence of
action as to warrant severe criticism.
Ii he has not been thus guilty they
would be glad TO know 1t and to accord
him due credit for all of his efforts. Ii
is the first duty of a subordinate to obey
orders. especially those in the army
service. Theirs not to reason why:
theirs but to do and die If an inferior
does disregard orders. and acts upon his
judgment and succeeds, very little OF
censure is heard. schley contributed
not little to the success of the navy at
Santiago. tho he was at first reluctan,
10 believe that the enemy was in thai
harbor. 1t is to be hoped that he may
succeed in making favorable showing
in his effort to clear his skirts by thi'
inquiry.

The Growing Surplus.


The latter-dya tendency of receipts
to pile up over expenditures in our
national treasury is already observable
and an old evil is developing. The ex-
cess for the present fiscal year to date
amounts to s6,693,266.72, and the avail
able cash in the treasury. after deduct
ing the gold reserve of $150,000,000 and
the trust funds held for redemption of
Outstanding gold certificates, silver GER
tifcates and treasury notes, amounts
to S179,652, 312.25.
Strange as it may seem. the present
condition of affairs Is not due to an in
crease in the receipts of the govern
ment over last year, but to a reduction
of expenditures. While the revenue
receipts are much smaller now than for
the corresponding time last year, the
custom receipts are much larger. The
expenditures for this year to date are
$12,095,763.0S below those of last year.
and this accounts for the current sur
plus.
There is every reason why the sur
plus should go on acumulating and the
government will have to shape Its
course accordingly.

WHAT IOWA MEANS.

The American Economist, the official
organ of the American Protective Tar
iff League, in a recent article called at
tention to the fact that the recent Iowa
republican state convention adopted a
tariff resolution and explains it by say
ing: After reaffirming strong pro-
lection sentiments there was brief eX-
preston to the effect that the tariff
might be altered from time to time If
found necessary. The sentence was
wholly provisional and tentative. No
assertion was made that any such ac-
ton was required or would be de-
manded but the anti-protection demo-
cratic press, which is hard up for issues
nowadays. seized upon this unimport-
ant item and began TO pat the Iowa re-
publicans on the back as tariff reform
ers.
To dissipate any misrepresentation
the Economist appends some remarks
from a speech made by Congressman
Lacey at the convention. In that
speech Mr.. Lacey said the republican
party stands committed to a protective
tariff; that the principle of protection,
however, does not involve permanence
| in any of the tariff schedules; and that
when the tariff is revised, or any of it's
schedule modified, the only safe way is
to have the modification made by the
| friends of the principle and policy OF
Mr.. Lacey said: Tariff agitation is
to be deprecated, and only the strongest
of necessity win justify the considera-
ton of changing schedules to which the
business of the country has become
adapted. 1t is easy to start tariff
agitation: it is almost impossible to
keep it within safe bounds when once
| set in motion
/ The aim of Congressman Lacey was
to put quietus on all tariff legisla-
ton, and the efforts of the Economist
are in the same direction.
i Since Iowa's convention was held
President Mckinley in his Buffalo adj
dress preceding the attempt on his life
has made a liberal and broad minded
speech in which he favored tariff modi-
fication in the direction of reciprocity
He declared in that address that INC
narrow, sordid policy will subserve u.s.
and said, IF perchance some of oul
tariffs are no longer needed for revenue
or to encourage or protect our indus
tries at home, why should they not be
employed to extend or promote oul
markets abroad" In other words, he
favors tariff modification rather thar
suppression of the subject, and in tl1i.
respect he is in harmony with Iowa re-
publicans. who. in their latest platform
declared:
we. favor such changes in the tariff
from time to time as become advisabl,
thru the progress Of our industries ant
their changing relations TO the com.
merce Of the world. We endorse tn,

They showed their incapacity in
statesmans and politics In the futile
and inefficient German Wilson bill, a
botched UP measure of populism and
protection. which President Cleveland
refused to sign, and they We're kicked
out of power at the next election by a
dissatisfied and disguised people. They
We're entirely incompetent to deal with
the great questions of revenue reform
and the monetary standard.
< Politics is opportunity. In 1896 the re-
publican leaders, who had before that
time been flirting with the silver issue,
and had been strongly drawn that way,
with mastery adroitness seized uon the
gold standard for the principal issue of
the campaign, and thus split the demo-
cratis party in twain. Then accession to
power was thing OF course.
And now there is every indication
that in the next presidential campaign
the republican party, by means of the
reciprocity issue. will again outmaneu-
yer the democracy and go before the
country in favor of lower tariffs.
The presidents Buffalo speech, which
has been nearly forgotten in the excite
ment occasioned by the assault upon
him. struck that note with firmness and
lvigor. Reciprocity will be the issue of
1904. and upon 1t the republican party
will win a sweeping victory. The poor
old democracy will be deprived Of the
only leg 1t ever had.
1t is only in republican craftsmanship
and legislation that there can be any
permanent benefit to the country.
