Secretary Moody has completed the
system whereby he expects to arrive at
the exact cost of the Connecticut, which
is to be built in the New York navy
yard. Not only is the pay of the off,
GERS who supervise or direct the con-
struction of the vessel to be taken into
account, but the cost of their education
as we'll, so that no penny which might
be properly charged to the cost of con
struction will be overlooked. Mr.. Moo
dy figures that aside from the pay OF
the officer during his active service, he
costs the government 81 100 per year,
which sum is arrived al by adding The
cost of his education to the average a.
mount of pay ola retired officer and di'
yiding the total by 40, which is taken
as the average length of active service.
Therefore, if an officer spent three years
supervising the construction of the Con
necticut and during that tune received
as pay $500 per year, his services
would be figured as costing the govern.

The trial of the suit instituted by
John S. Wise for the overthrowing Of
Virginia's new constitution began in
Richmond today. The negroes are
under the impression that great things
will come to them as a result of the suit,
but few of them are contributing any
of their cash toward the furtherance Of
'the good cause" The white people
generally look upon the whole proceed
ing with curiosity, wondering where the
money is coming from for the expenses,
which will be large, but have absolutely
no fear ofthe outcome. Many look upon
it simply as a money-making venture on
the part of Mr.. Wise, while others say
that the humiliation of his native State
and the loss to its people will be
sufficient reward for him if he should
succeed in overthrowing Virginia's new
organic law.

Serious Railroad Accident.

indianapolis, Ind, Nov. 2S.-The Big
Four train known as the Exposition
Flyer, which left Indianapolis for st
Louis at 1905 o'clock this morning,
was wrecked on long fill just west of
the Big Creek bridge, about five miles
east of Danyille, and twelve persons
were injured. Three sleepers left the
track and all the injured were in those
cars. The last sleeper in the string of
eight or ten cars, struck broken rail,
and was hurled down 20 foot embank-
ment. This car turned over four times
and landed in corn field go feet from
the track. Engineer Dopell said his
train was 25 minutes late and he was
sending the engine for all it was worth.
The train was almost filled with
passengers when it left here. That
there was 10 loss of life is almost
miraculous.

will, it is expected, to be held next Tues
day for the purpose of considering bank

tracked because it attempted to cover
too many questions. Mr.. Fowler, has it
is understood, prepared new and much
simplifed measure, which he hopes to
have adopted at the coming session. A
number of leading bankers who are OPP
posed to the idea of allowing national
banks to issue currency on whatever esq
sests they may hold, because of the wide
fluctuations possible in the value of such
security, have proposed new plan to Mr.
Fowler, which he has now under favor
able consideration. In effect it provides

have been approved by the Secretary of

THE unproftableness of newspapers is
shown by the announcement made BY
one of those published in Washington OF
the discontinuance of its morning, and
the concentration of all its energies upon
its evening issue. Washington, even
with its $500 population, never has
supported more than two papers and for
years only one could be made to pay Its
publishers more than a mallinterestupon
their investment. The newspaper field
is and has for long time been over-crowd-
ed and millions of money have been sunk
in newspaper enterprises. In many OF
the cities recently newspaper consolida-
tons have been general and the question
is narrowing itself down to the survival
of the fttest.

Caught in a Death Trap.

Vienna, Nov. 2S.-It is reported that
the Car recently decreed the expulsion
from Russia of $4,000 Armenians who
had fed to the Cars domain to escape
the massacres in their homeland. Cos
sacks, it is said, drove the expelled
Armenians to the frontier of Turkey,
but the Armenians were driven back
only to meet the Cossacks again, and a
second time they were driven to the
frontier. Thus, they were caught in a
death trap and without any shelter were
driven backward and forward in zero
weather. A big mortality has occurred
in their ranks.

THE HOPE of tariff revision has gone
glimmering and now that for trust legis-
lation by Congress in the near future
seems to be getting DINNER and DINNER.
This conclusion is drawn from the re-
peatedly expressed sentiment of republi-
can senators and representatives now ar
irving in Washington to the effect that
legislation 'ought to be enacted bearing
upon trusts, but the tariff must not be
touched" As the trusts are the out
come of the high tarif, how the former
are to be reached without touching" the
latter, can only be answered by selfish
protectionists. 1t is conceded by re-
publicans generally that the Sherman
antitrust law is ineffective, and con-
stitutional amendment is regarded, so
far as being reasonably immediate
remedy is concerned, as out of the ques-
ton. The only avenue by which the
trusts can be reached, therefore, is the
tariff. The feeling of suspicion is
aroused that some republican senators,
while protesting to favor trust action,
well know that nothing is to be done.

FRIDAY EVENING. NOV. 2s, 1902
PRESIDENT ROOSEVELT has written

PRESIDENT ROOSEVELT has written
long letter to citizen of South Carolina
in which he labors hard to explain why
negroes should be appointed to elevated
and remunerative positions in the
South, the main excuses he gives being
similar acts committed by him while
Governor of New York and since he
has been President and theory, long
since exploded, that, under certain con-
ditions, the negro race can rise to
position never intended at the creation.
The purposed appointment of colored
man named Crum as collector OF the
port of Charleston precipitated the cor
respondence between the President and
the South Carolinian, the latter naturally
taking exceptions to the act and protest
ing against the appointment as an in
suit to the white and superior race in
tended to rule in this republic. The
President in answering his correspon-
dent banks greatly upon what he has
done in the way of making negro ap-
pointments in New York and in some
places in Pennsylvania where occa-
sionally darkey has been selected for
some complimentary or trivial position,
but he in no instance shows where the
collectorship of some large port has been
given to member of the negro race.
Such positions are plums for greater
fayorities. The illusion from which the
President suffers, to the effect that the
colored race is susceptible of develop
ment to such degree as to become
representative people, or, under certain
conditions, to participate in the gov
eminent of the world, was exploded
while he was in his swaddling clothes
and while the four years civil war was
in progress, and which is further re-
futed by the history of Haiti, where
another revolution was precipitated this
week, this being the second so far this
year. So long as negroes are foisted on
the southern people by being placed in
exalted positions by the republicans just
so long will the solid South remain in
fact
