The Chinese plenlpotentiarles have
signed the joint note thus bringing the
preliminary negotiations to a close,
They have been very long, and a pc
culiar feature Of the business is that all
the while the powers, or most Of them,
were sending punitive expeditions TO
various parts Of China. II is safe to
say that the negotiations subsequent to
the preliminary steps win be marked
by procrastination and prolixity The
suggestion Of our government that the
negotiations be transferred TO Wash
ington has been declined by the pow
ers, but their objection seems to be
more to the city than TO the idea. It
was very good one and may yet be
acted upon.

PHILIP d ARMOUR.


Armour was type Of a class with
which the American people have grown
familiar since the civil war The first
genuine impulse toward expansion came
when the forty-niners found their way
either across the plains. around the
Horn or over the isthmus 10 San Fran
cisco. That bred a degree Of self-con.
lidence In the American people which
hitherto had been expanded mainly on
the sea. II showed the people the real
extent OF the country which was soon
TO DE- theirs; It strengthened their arms
and Il broadened their horizon Follow
ing this the Mexican war had ne ma
terial advantages, however morally in
defensible 1t may have been II gave
those who participated in II the tre-
mendous leverage which comes from
success. the experience which comes
from foreign contact and that self-re-
lance without which very little IL
achieved IL became very much easier
after that war for men to travel 10 far
away Oregon or California. and It mads
Of them metal superior TO what they
had been before.

The new county commissioners are
working in the public interest in the
rule that employees in the offices must
work eight hours a day However, they
are not finding fault with their prede-
cessors. nor do they make such sweep
ing statements as to existing conditions,
as might appear from reports in the
newspapers They desire TO proceed
with economy. and think that It is bet
ter to require a legal days work for a
legal days pay, than to cut salaries.
There Is no particular shaking up or
sensation about the matter only a lit
tie more stringency In office regulations.

For several years Mr.. Armour had
been compelled by failing health to take
a less active part than formerly In bust
ness affairs, but his influence has never
waned. A word from Armour has al

that the great packing Interests which
he founded will 90 on under the direc-
tion OF men who received their training
from him, and who possess many Of
his talents and merits. The ciroum-

his family and friends, he passed away
with loving farewells upon his lips and
a smile upon his face II was the end

ROOM FOR MILLIONS.

Somebody has made the prediction
that In a hundred wears from now. the
United States will nave population
OF 300. 100000 souls, and the question
naturally arises where all these are to
live and how The prophecy Is, Of
course based upon the rate Of increase
during the past century. and such cal-
culatlons are Of no particular value.
In sparsely settled countries the IN
crease naturally Is rapid, both by births
and immigration. Conditions change az
the country is being built up, and how
those changes viii affect the increase OF
population cannot be calculated be-
forehand, with any degree OF certainty.
But even II the next century should
gradually bring our population no 10
the number Of three hundred millions,
this would be no reasonable cause OF
apprehension. II would not justify US In
building up a Chinese wall around the
country. for there Is plenty OF room.
our present population OF seyenty-six
million souls furnishes only about
twenty persons to the square mile. With
three hundred millions. We would stlll
only have about eighty persons to each
square mile. And this population Is
greatly exceeded. not only in parts Of
Asia. but In some OF the prosperous
countries Of Europe. Clearly this coun-
try need not fear the prospect Of grow
ing to the magnificent size predicted.
There are the arid regions which,
with proper utilization Of their natural
resources. can be made 10 support a
population equal perhaps TO the entire
population Of the country now And
with the increase OF people comes nat
urally the increase Of resources. There
is plenty of idle land everywhere that
could boz made a source OF wealth The
agricultural possibilities Of American
soil are not yet fully realized. and much
less put to the test But they win be-
az the necessity for it comes. And foi
that reason there is no fear OF any
possible increase by ordinary means we
can experience during this century.
That a time may come when living win
be as much Of a problem in the United
states as it IS In China, IS conceivable
But that condition viii not arise for
many centuries.

THE STOCK MARKET
Almost a Duplication of Tuesday.

New York, Aug. 21-To-day's market for stocks was practically duplication of yesterdays, except that the final re- action on traders profit taking was rather more marked with the result that the table of net changes is more divided between small gains and losses than yesterday. The small buying was sufficient in the main to offset the still smaller selling, so that the prevailing tone of the market was firm to strong, up to the irregular closing on the reac- ton.
 The character of the buying made it very evident that it represented the opinions of professional traders as to future values rather than the convic- tions of investors buying to hold There was some evidence also of opera tions by pools formed by the larger class of traders. An active demand for the Wabash securities lifted them at one time s4 to 1B. There was contin- ued buying of the coalers, based on the Fries annual report showing a sub stantial increase in gross earnings, not withstsrdine 2 considerable failing off in the tonnage transported.
