WEEK IN WALL STREET.
Speculation Has Reached Unprece.
dented Volume.

New York, May 4.-Speculation has
reached unprecedented volume during
the past week, and apparently all avail
able resources are being diverted into
Wall street to take advantage of the
boom. The confidence that other trans
continental railroad consultations were
in process of formation to meet con
ditions made by the Burlington deal
has furnished the handspring of the
speculation. Railroads Immediately
available for such consultations have
led the market conspicuOusly, but the
sympathetic influence has been broad
and CON prehensive through the whole
list. The hardening tendency of the
money market received little attention
until late in the week, when there was
some calling of loans and liquidation of
profits which checked the mad rush to
buy to some extent

 These figures are unpleasant reading enough. but the Chicago Tribune's re- vised table of American lynchings is still more unpleasant reading. This table covers sixteen years and brings the record of the lyrchings down to last New Years day. The number Of per sons put to death by nobs in the Uni ted States in the sixteen years was 2,516.

The high quality of William J. Bryan's patriotism cannot be ques- tioned. Nobody has any doubt of his great love for his country. He is more noted, however, for a sympathetic heart and an emotional nature than for exceptional logic in his reasoning. and 1t would not be fair to him, therefore. to hold hins to the strict logic of one of the expressions in his manly and fore ib.e denunciation of the attempted as- sassination of the president-we refer to his statement that the creature Czolgosz had no reason for cnmmit- ting his dastardly crime. The infer ence might be that if the anarchist had had a reason some excuse could be found for the deed Of course, Mir Bryan meant nothing of the sort.

William IT of Germany used to be called, half in humor and half In malice. the talking emperor" He could have desired few more honor able nicknames had the reference been altogether to speeches such as that which he made on Wednesday of last week to Prince Chun. This word does not often hear an utterance more dig nified, impressive, and generally be fitting it's circumstances than that. In- deed, we may say that throughout the entire episode the German emperor bore himself in a manner worthy of the great head of a great nation. It would have been so easy to spoil the whole business by being harsh, or mslodra- nhtic. or by doing something to give it a tinge of opera bouffe. The emperor judiciously avoided the peril, and added to the history of civilization a scene which will be gratefully and admiringly remembered

The statement in the local columns of The Republican a few days ago that
 if the data gathered ANOTHER by the survey now RAILROAD under, way proves FOR PHOENIX satisfactory and due
 encouragement is re- ceived from the country to be benefit ted, the proposed railroad from Phoe- nix to Benson will be constructed, was a piece of news of great importance to Phoenix and central Arizona It may be regarded as a reasonable certainty that the line will be built.
 Connecting at Benson with the South ern Pacific as well as the great Phelps Dodge railway system. the new line will constitute in reality q through trunk line to Fl Paso. It will imme- diately give Phoenix a commercial inn portance incompatible with anything heretofore achieved. The vista opening before this city and the Salt River valley is captivating.
 The markets to be opened up in the mining districts of Pinal county for the products and merchandise of this valley will be one of the most impor- tant in Arizona. It has bean the dream of Phoenix business men for years to have q railroad to the rich middle val ley of the Gila. Pinaa county itself will be placed on a high plane of prosperity. since a number of mines of great value will be op5rated as soon as there is Q railroad within reasonable distance. The little town of Florence will become q prosperous city. To be main line'' to Mexico and the southeast will be a realization of Phoenix hopes which were born years ago when the future greatness Of this city was per ceivei.
 And this important railroad is not the only good thing in the store of the inn mediate future for Phoenix and the valley.

It is somewhat ominous that the evacuation of Pao Ting Flu by the French troops should be followed by a relapse into the conditions that pre- ceded the occupation. The chinese authorities have deliberately abolished by proclamation all the governmental reforms introduced by the Frencl. There is only too much reason to fear that the foreign influence throughout China will fail equally as soon as the immediate pressure is removed. That is why a settlement that consits mainly in indemnity cannot be re- garded as very worthy triumph for western civilization. Had the powers been better able to agree among them selves. China might really be making an effort to advance under intelligent guidance to ths position in the word it is fitted by nature to occupy.
