SWINBURNE'S CRITICISMS.
The English Poets Comments ON
Methods OF the Boer War.

Concentration camps and the NOR
tality rates thereof cause n good deal
of worriment TO most Englishmen, even
to those who believe In Imperialism
and look upon its means and incidents
as necessary and therefore justiiable,
but the most thoroughgoIng of British
jingoes may well be aflrlghted by a
poem in which Algernon Charles Swim
burne commentaries the death Of Colo
mel Benson says the New York Times.
After referring to Northumberland's
sorrow and pride in the loss of such u
son the poet continues:
Nor heed we more than he what liars dare say
OF mercy's holest duties left urdone
Toward wheps aud dams Of murderous foes,
whom none
Save we had spared or feared to staEve and slay.
This, which appears in the London
Saturday Review, Is enough to make
tlmid poets like Kipling open their eyes
in astonlshment. but 1t does not con.
tent Mr.. Swlnburne, who proceeds 10
smooth down the feathers rutlied by
Mr.. Chambcrlain's recent suave refer
ences to a neighbours methods OF war
fare as follows:
Alone as Milton and as Wordsworth found
And hailed their England. when from all around
Howled all the recreant hate ot envious knaves.
Sublime she stands. while. stihed in the sound.
Each lie that falls from German Doors and slaves
Falls but as Gth dropt in the wandering waves.

ham spoke on What There is In
America For the Poet"
"The poet who is worth while is one
who has something to do with the lar

prophet aud a seer" he said. I'VE need
a new ideal for the poetic and literary
life, and | believe that the social and
Industrial movement at the present
time presents higher theme than the
poets have yet dealt with. believe
that we are coming to new concep-
tion of religion that will be the appll-
cation of the Golden Rule. We need
not men TO make money. but money TO
make men. We lack a great past, but
we have spacious future. America
has been reserved to these later ages
for some great manifestation. Some
thing seems destined to come out OF
this great experiment OF democracy,
and | believe 1t will be In the solving
of the problem of the struggle of CAPT
tai and labor and that we Will solve

There will be a strong lobby ln Washington this winter in favor of the further reduction of the war taxes, especially of those still remaining on liauors and beers. Success, in some degree, at least, seems assured, chief ly because the revenues of the govern ment must be reduced. Any attempt to do this by cut in tariff rates will be opposed by the interests whose pro- tection is imperiled, and is at best very doubtful in effect, it often hap pening that reduction in rates leads to an increase in importations that ac- tually increases receipts. The only opposition to cutting the war taxes, on the other hand, is on account of the fear lest the revenue may be reduced too much.

The chances are that the long fight utive department to be known as that of commerce, will be crowned with success at the coming session. For ten or twelve years pressure to this end has been fexerted ill q constantly increasing ratio, eliminating ill the recommendations in it's favor by the reciprocity convention that recently met in Washington. The president, it is said, will strongly recommend such department in his message and will be upheld therein by numerous dele gations of business men and associa- tions The exact scope of the new department has not yet been definitely planned, but it is most probable that it will take from the treasury depart ment the bureau of statistics, the for
 eign tariff bureau. and the merchant marine bureau; from the state de pertinent the consular service, (which will be placed under civil service rules; and from the agricultural de- pertinent, the bureaus of foreign mar kets. and of animal and fruit quaran- tines.

CONDITION OF TRADE.
Business Brisk, but Greatly Hindcr-
 ed by Lack of Transportation.

| Business Brisk, but Greatly Hindcr- ed by Lack of Transportation. NEW YORK, Nov. 30.-R. G. Dun &. 1 Co.'S weekly review of trade says: When consumptive demand equals or
 exceeds supply and prices are firmly held at an exceptionally high level, it
 is generally considered that there is little to be desired in the business sit
 uation. These factors are now in evil
 dence to an unusual extent. yet many industries are halting. The principal
 disturbing element is the lack of cars to handle the phenomenal shipments that are urgently needed.
 A general advance in the price of pig iron indicates that record breaking ac- tivity at furnaces fails to produce ac- emulation of supplies. Steel mills are
 seeking material urgently
 With higher water in the Pittsburg
 region there has come q brisk move
 ment of coal on the river. and coke ovens are constantly attaining new top figures of weekly output. The feature among the minor metals was the sharp advance in tin to much the highest point of the year because of delayed arrivals Tn marked contrast to the rise in tin was sharp declsne in silver to the lowest price since early in 1898. Shoeshops at the east are fully em- ployed, while western producers were
 never before so actively engaged. Recent buying of cotton goods for China has stimulated the export move
 ment, and for the year thus far the
 value shows an increase over any pre- ceding year Asia and South America are the leading customers.
 Another new high record for the sea- son was established by corn, not alone because of speculative operations, al though these were most aggressive at the west Receipts come forward slow ly despite the attractive prices, for the week amounting to only 2,20S, ,279 bush els against 3,3S6,37 last year.
 Wheat also held firmly, closing the
 week more. than cents a bushel above
 the price year ago, which is most sat isfactory in view of the vast increase in yield.
 Failures for the week numbered 1S2 in the United States against IFS last
 year and 25 in Canada against 21 last year.

 Where you going, Mandy" he asked.
 "Over to see Aunt Nancy Styles"
 "Can I give you lift?''
 She hesitated, and before she could make up her mind whether to refuse or accept his invitation she found her. self lifted behind him.
 They had a very pleasant ride, but Sam Williams was not mentioned. He told her of his farm, the new cabin he had just built, and mentioned the good qualities of another horse he had at home.
 She told him of her chickens and how much butter she had made from Bloss, her COW, her very own, for Uncle George gave it to her when it 7 was a calf She also mentioned the new dress she was making, which was for Sunday only, and so the time was taken tip till they reached her aunt's. He waited till she was ready to start home, and insisted on being her com pany for the trip.
 It was nearlygtime for supper when old John Scott saw Abe Howard riding up the pathway to his cabin, and to his surprise his daughter was riding be- hind him.

Money continues very easy," says Henry Clews, the banker, ill his week ly letter, partly owing to the return of funds from the interior. Gold ex- ports seem to have been checked and the necessities of Europe temporarily satisfied. A better supply of cotton bills also tended to check gold ship ments. London, however, is generally a seller on the advances infthis market and Europe is neither able nor willing to enlarge it's investments in this corn- try. In view therefore of the con tinued shut off in the supplies of gold from South Africa We are still exposed to demand upon us for gold For tunately We are well able to supply this demand, so it need cause no con- cern; only it is well to remember that gold exports are not generally untilized as bull arguments. Our export. trade continues to show ample trade bal ances. but exports have in several months fallen below last years heavy totals, and our imports are steadily rising. Adversity abroad and prosper ity at home may seem very comforting, but such conditions are not conducive. to the large trade balances which have been such a stimulus during the last few years. In the present situation there is nothing on which to build any great hope for higher prices. The laE- ter are already as high as natural con- ditions warrant, and, as said above, prosperity has been amply discounted, while the effect of adverse influences was warded off by artificial support last summer The market is still III very powerful control; itris quite pos sible that the leaders, with unlimited resources behind them. with easy money and January disbursements to come, and with the public imagination easily fired by the great deals which are in progress, will be able to lift val ues to still higher level This will afford an excellent basis for rading;s: but we advise caution. in making pur- chases and suggest profit taking on Ill pronounced rallies.
