THE SILK STTTdTTON.

Although the Silk Association held it's annual
banquet on Monday amid much hilarity, IT is no
secret that the industry Is In anything but a
satisfactory position. Sales are slow and stocks
heavy. while efforts 10 push business bring the
customary concessions in prices. Examination
OF the statistical position may suggest remedy
by disclosing the exact nature OF the disease.
Imports OF raw silk in 1898 were valued mt
S27. 1883. which was about an average years
movement up TO that time. and AT the opening
Of 1890 the average price was So 7GI4. Then
followed a year OF expanding manufacture. the
capacity of old mills being heavily increased
aud many new ones erected. This enlarged
production was greatly facilitated by the readl-
ness of dealers in raw silk to furnish material
on easy terms, allowing almost unlimited time
for payments. Loom makers also provided
machinery without urgent demand for cash.
The result was a rapid rise in prices of raw
silk owing to the increased demand, and the
year ended with an average of IS 45.
Meanwhile. importatiOns reached the high
record OF S43. 3.546,S62. Consumption OF goods did
not keep pace with production especially as
quotations moved up in sympathy with the raw
material and there was much difficulty in max
ing payments Demand for raw silk naturally
dropped off, but imports in 1900 We're valued at
$50. .453, ,659. that there was no appreciable
loss in quantity. since the average price de-
clned from 81 f5 at the opening TO So II at the
close of the year. The present price Is nearly
81 per cent lower than on January l. 1900
When il is realized that much raw material
purchased at or near the top quotation is still
in the hands Of manufacturers, either in the
original form finished goods, il becomes
apparent that some one is in position to lose
money OF late there has been noticed in the
commercial paper market an increased effort by
instances of embarrassment are by no means
isolated. While the vagaries of fashion, espe-
cially In the matter of short skirts, have an
influence there is also much to be said against
the effort to reduce expenses in connection with
dyeing.
Cheaper coloring methods have injured the
value of the material and lost purchasers. 1t is
no argument in favor of these goods TO say
that they wear ont more quickly when dynamite
larger sales. On the contrary. buyers will be
more ready TO invest in mercerized cotton goods
and other similar substitutes. The loss in quail
ity has also brought better demand for foreign
made goods of which imports in 1898 were
s25 2s1. .4I9 in 1899 S2I, ,SSO,6S4 and in 1900
500, ,T1951S. Last years total was nearly up to
the figures Of earlier years before the domestic
manufacture had become extensive. There is
no solution in the proposition to organize a
combination controlling the industry in this
country. ANY effort TO sustain prices artificalIy
by trust is assured of failure before ii begins

PUNISHMENT TO FIT THE CRIME
THREE CHINESE OFFICIALS REFUSE TO
COMMIT SUICIDE. AND EMPEROR
THINKS THEY SHOULD BE
BANISHED
BANISHED

Picking. Feb. 13.-At least three OF the Chinese
officials to whom Emperor Kwang Su sent a
choice OF methods of suicide. in pursuance OF the
demand of the Powers for their punishment with
death. have declined 10 comply. and the En-
peror has withdrawn his request that they
should destroy themselves
His Majesty now telegraphs to Prince China;
that when he agreed TO the terms of the joint
note the latter only required that the punish
ment should fit the crime. and he urges that if
the of the guilty deserve death. the others
should be banished.
The foreign ENJOYS. on the contrary. say that
even those who are least guilty deserve DEATH
and. as there is no worse punishment. all must
suffer the same penalty. although, If China
should desire 10 make distinctions regarding the
crimes. she can sentence the worst either TO
quartering or to some other forms of Chinese
execution.
Unless the Court changes it's views no i'm
mediate settlement is possible.

LIE CoNFERENCE PROBLEM.

Tho Conference Committee which has before
il the ask of harmonizing the views of the two
houses of Congress on revenue reduction VIII
do we'll 70 bear in mind the fact that the aver
age citizen and taxpayer has no particular con-
Germ for the beer and tobacco interests, which
are making such strenuous efforts 10 get the
bulk Of their war taxes removed. The mass OF
Republican voters have no complaint to make
over the continuance Of the stamp tax on checks
or stock transfers or other transactions needed
10 secure the Government ample revenues. They
much prefer a surplus 10 a deficit, and ask
only that no annoying and inconvenient taxes

If Congress is satisfied that reduction in the
public income is wise, the rank and file look
only 10 see the benefits of that remission equita-
bly distributed. They would not wish TO see
any industry burdened with the full weight Of
war taxes. even though such taxes were not
heavy. while other people were freed entirely
from revenue exactions. On the other hand
they would consider Objectionable reduction
