New York City was slow to adopt the
fashion Of skyscrapers. but at length it
did so. and then went Chicago something
better in respect to a few of its greatest
architectural attempts in the direction
OF the heavens. But there are indica-
tions that no more such are desired of
the builders. A new fashion evidently
is coming in. The highest priced office
rooms, and consequently the choicest,
now are offered in buildings Of not more
than four stories in height, but which
cover each an entire block.
This newer fashion, too, New York
has taken from Chicago. All in the
latter city who have invested in sky
scrapers are tired of them. even as in
vestments. Few of them pay. And
lately shrewd capitalists have turned
their attention to building more on the
earth than in the skies. Some Of the re-
Gently built bank structures are not of
a greater height than four stories. They
are used by the various departments of
the several banks owning the properties,
OF if there is space to spare it is rented
out to select tenants. The finest Of these
is that Of the Chicago National bank
building. magnificent one. which is
shared in by no other concern. John r..
Walsh is the president Of this bank. and
<AHuTcW MCGNduS, WnOSe winter nome is
at Altadena, is the vice president.
1t was inevitable that this change Of
style should come about. A suggestion
for it is found in ancient history. Those
who have not forgotten their Livy will
recall that in a time of great wealth in
Rome, tall buildings We're erected, but
soon they became a menace if not a
nuisance. and the imperial power issued
decree limiting the height of stores
and palaces to twice the width Of the
streets. Such limitation might not do
now, but yet it would not be far wrong.

ERIK DEMAND tOR METAL.

II is a we'll known fact that ST. ong
commercial sympathy exists between the
yariors branches of the metal industry.
Willis the demand for one metal contin-
ues sood it is proof positive that the
decline in the other is only temporary.
and that in the regular course of trade
the market will speedily improve. Just
now abundant evidence is at hand TO
show that the trade in iron and steel is
brisk. Manufacturers of structural iron
are overwhelmed with orders. Machinery
manufacturing concerns are running full
blast. Prices in every line are leaping
upward in response TO demand that
cannot be met by running day and night.
and for the first time in recent history
a bonus can be had by manufacturers
who are ready to make a trade which
will provide for the delivery of the goods
on the spot
All this activity means that the SOW
market for copper cannot last long. and
when once buying begins, the visible
supply VIII be absorbed in the roaring
currents Of trade as if it We're but a
drop in the bucket. AS evidence of the
condition Of trade, a recent Interview
with a steel rail manufacturer is in
point. After stating that orders calling
for delivery next year aggregate 100000
tons. and that books Of companies in his
line contained orders to insure plants
continuing at high pressure for a year.
he makes the following interesting state
ment with respect to the prevailing
price:
Had not the steel rail companies en-
tered into an agreement to maintain the
price Of rails at S2S a ton fer delivery
next year prices would be several dol
lars above. present quotations. In other
words. We would be enjoying what is
commonly called a boom. Manufacturers
could set more than $50 a ton for their
rails on orders for spot delivery. but the
fact OF the matter is. they are booked
SO far ahead that they are compelled to
reject all business calling for spot de-
livery. The output of the rail r1anufac-
turing plants during the year 1902 will
not be sufficient to supply the demand,
and indications are that orders for sew
eral hundred thousand tons OF rails CALI
ing for delivery in 1902 will be carried
over into 1903

simultaneously with the invention of
steel construction of buildings in cities
came in the fashion Of skyscrapers. To
Minneapolis. and not as is commonly be-
lieved. to Chicago. is to be credited this
device. An architect Of the flour mill
city" invented it, but the first building
of the kind was erected in the great
city Of the lakes" The date was 1879,
and the builder was the New York Life
Insurance company. The location was
on La Sale. little south Of Monroe
street. But this was not skyscraper
il it's altitude should be measured with
numbers of more recent tall structures.
Ii was a dwarf in comparison with the
Masonic temple in Chicago. not to name
others whose roofs reach up to the
clouds.
From the time the New York Life
building was constructed to that when
the Masonic temple was built, the pro-
gress of the new fashion was rather
slow. But when in that wonderful arch
itectural pile it was proved that a steel
office structure could be raised safely to
any attainable height, the ambitious de-
vice was Established. Thereafter build
ings anywhere from 10 to % stories We're
erected by consent Of the Chicago city
council. The effect on adjoining build
ings and on houses in the Immediate
neighborhool was disastrous. In the
vicinity of a skyscraper all lesser build
ings either are depopulated or the ten
ants occupying them are second-class.
So soon as this was seen to be the case
an agitation was begun with view to
regulating the height of buildings, with
the result that the city council passed
an ordinance tcrbidding the pilng of
more than twelve stories one upon the
other. This ordinance has been evaded
in {. few instances, but generally it is

The latest edition of the congress
sional directory, containing Biographical
sketches of members of the house and
senate is chiefly reliable for the ridicu-
lous redundancy it contains. Members
of congress who are old enough to know
better have given themselves elaborate
eulogy in it's pages. The public is conf
dentially informed that one began earn
ing his living at l. cents per day
driving oxen. Another reveals the thrill
ing fact that he peeled hemiock bark in
his tender youth for an humble pittance,
and worked on the woodpile for so cents
per cord. The conclusion that these in
sufferable cyclists We're overpaid in the
beginning of their life work and are now
lucky in not being worse off than when
they began life is irresistible.

PRIZE AND BOUNTY MONEY.

The distribution of "prZe money
seems to be an interesting point around
which gossip connected with the Samp-
son-Schley controversy revolves. It's the
rock on which officers of the navy seem
to split and. from all accounts 'he
division of the spoils of war will be the
bitterest memory of the whole untortu-
nate affair. An American hero reaching
for check is a bad enough spectacle 10
set before the country. but two naval
officers of high rank and their following
in official and private life all squabbllhs
over the yield of an historic naval VIC
tory is a sight which is calculated TO
weary that part of the public Whic"
is not too deeply stirred by the par
tisan features of the controversy to
be impressed with the ridiculous size OIL
the affair. AS a matter of fact the
"prize money" phase of the controversy
between Schley and Sampson is alto
gether apart from the issue respecting
Schleys conduct before and during the
battle of Santiago. Prize money is award
ed by the admiralty court. 1t is paid LOT
captured ships sold by the courts oroer.
Bounty money comes from announcer
source. 1t is paid out of the treasury for
warships of the enemy destroyed in
action. From this latter source Admiral
Schley gets $780, nearly half as much as
Sampson. Admiral Dewey received S9ooo
for destroying the fleet at Manila. sSanp-
son secured $500 from the Santiago VIC
tory as bounty money. The remainder OF
his large reward which has aroused the
ire of Schleys friends was for prizes cap
tured during the entire Spanish-Amer-
lean campaign. Under the law of adj
miralty the sums given Sampson could
not be less than they were. 1t was de-
cided by the court of claims that he was
in command of the fleet which fought at
Santiago and under the rules the larger
part of the bounty money went to him.
Had this been all the cash that came his
way, however. the contrast between his
rewards and those given Schley would
not be so great. There is no point in the
law governing such matters which could
be stretched far enough to give Schley
share of the prize money. He will have
to be content with the bounty, the glory
of the victory he achieved and the graft
tude of the American people.
