GREAT FIGHT ON WALL STREET

NEW YORK. April 4.--Among the
many broken precedents which have

effect on the speculative public at
large.
No such fight against the prevailing
tend dsncy In the market was ever be-

operators In recent speculation are
credited with the assertion that there

The total dealings in Union Pacific

that the project OF building line from
FL Paso. Tex. which is reached by the
Texas & Pacific and also, incidentally,
by the Mexican Central. to Santa Fe.

means not only a paralleling Of the
AtchIson's line between these two cities.
but an opportunity to connect with the
Mexican Central and carry its traffic
straight up over the Union Pacific by
the way of the Oregon Short Line to
Portland. Oregon.
The control OF the Mexican Central.
It has recently been stated, has passed
into the hands Of interests representing

CURIOSITY.

There happens to reside up in Mon
tezuma a queer individual named Lon
II. Boydston. The purpose of his ex.
istence has never been satisfactorily ex.
planned, but it appears to be for the
purpose of enabling the republican pa
pers to crow over his annual defec-
ton from the democratic party. He
first took up this role in 1895, and has
been doing it every year since, each time
being received with bulging headlines
and lachrymose gladness by the repub.
lican papers over the state.
Just how many times man has to
leave the democratic party in order to
get out and just how much he has to
use self.acting kicking machine In or
der to get himself fully injected into the
republican party has not been fully
worked out even in Boydston's case, be-
cause we are fully persuaded that he
will leave US again next year with the
same sort of parade anil red fire.
If a man should make a business. of
performing in that manner in ordinary
life he would he confined in an asylum

M'kINLEY AND THE sCHLEY CASE

The people who expect MIR. Mckinley
to take any action looking to the retire.
ment of Acting Secretary of the Navy
Hackett on account of his gross unfair
ness in the Schley matter evidently do
not know the man.
1t is Mr.. Mckinley who is responsible
for the whole scandal from beginning to
end. He began 1t and he could have
put a stop to it with word long ago.
1t is he who discovered Sampson we'll,
down in the list Of naval captains and
appointed him to the command in the
West Indies over the heads Of a score Of
better knownsand more capable men.
Itis he who has sought to justify that
blunders by committing many other
Iblunder and it is he whose mischieyous
example is being followed by everyone
of his subordinates in the navy depar-
ment from the malicious and gullible
Long down to the cheapest whipper-
snapper in the lot. The man who looks
to William Mckinley for generosity and
fairness in connection with Admiral
Schley looks in vain. He sought to
destroy schley. He promoted favor.
ite over his head. He arranged to have
the glory of the expected sea fight in
the West Indies go to Sampson.
He studiously r.frained from giving the
credit Of the victory at Santiago to the
man who was in immediate command.
He them made an effort to ad vance
Sampson over Schley on the list of rear
admirals. The fortunes of var, the
Intelligence of the American people and
the tirmness Of congress prevented the
success Of these schemes. Schley won
the battle, Schley got the honor in the
public estimation and schley, by the
action Of congress, took his place on the
navy list in advance Of Sampson.
Those who know Mr.. Mckinley will
understand why he will not and cannot
deal with the bureaucrats of the navy
department as fair and just man
would. He is incapable of such thing.
He gave them their cue and they are
following it-many small men taking
their inspiration from one who is no
better than themselves. The whole
conspiracy against schley is an attempt
to justify the favoritism Of Mr.. Nc
Kinley and to rebuke the people for
their success thus far in thwarting his
will ~ Chicago Chronicle.
