as a week ago and over 300 larger than a
year ago. About the same kind of cattle
were represented that there has been for
several days. which means that there were
comparatively few strictly choice kinds.
About the usual number of buyers were
present and although there was no really
urgent competition. the offerings changed
hands about as promptly as statesmen could
expect and prices for the most part were
in about the same position as yesterday
for all kinds. Occasionally, however, sales
men believed they were forced TO accept
a shade lower figures, while in other in
stances ii was believed that prices were
stronger. The demand from local sources
for the medium cows and heifers was more
liberal than il had been for several DAYS.
but buyers were not inclined TO paw any
higher prices. There was at least a steady
demand for the good stOckers and feeding
cattle. and all sales were considered steady.
or account of the absence of strictly top
cattle in their class there were no extreme
prices reported. The top price for steers

Surety Companies Public Blessing.

Hon. Edwin Warfleld was recently given
a reception by the Concord Democratic Club
of Baltimore. He was introduced TO the
club as the "next Governor OF Maryland"
In reply he said "Barkis is willing" then
delivered an address on corporate surety and
what 1t had done for the people. The FL
deity and Deposit Company Of Maryland,
Of which MIR Wariield was the organizer
and is now president, was the first surety
company organized In the South and the
second in the United States, and is the
strongest in the world. No man Is better
qualified TO speak on corporate security than
Mr.. Warfield He recognized the necessity
of such company in organizing the Fidel-
ity and Deposit Company, and he has OBJ.
served its benefits TO the people. Private
surety is no longer desirable for public Off.
cals, for receivers, trustees, executors and
administrators, or for others required TO
give bond, and banks, railroads, and other
enterprises require bonds from many OF their
clerks and employees.
Security was often difficult TO obtain by
the honest but poor man, without friends OF
financial standing, and not obtaining 1t he
had to lose opportunity Tor employment -
The surety company levels all honest men.
The Fidelity and Deposit Company inquiries
into the honesty of an applicant for surety,
rather than his bank account. liza poor man
establishes character for honesty and ca.
pacty, the company will go upon bis bond
as readily US upon the bond Of the million
aire. Thus the surety company Is a neces
sity. 1t is a blessing TO the people. IL liits
men up and gives them opportunities they
otherwise could not reach. Surety compa
MES are sometimes COMPOUNDED with trusts,
and most people do not discriminate be-
tween the latter. There are good trust com
panies, such as those which settle estates
and take care Of the funds Of widows and
orphans The other trust Is a combination
to limit production and extort excessive
profits This trust Is bad. The surety COM
pany is just the opposite. Itaids the people,
lifts them up, and does not rob them.

A Victory for the State Of Maryland.

The decision of the Supreme Court Of the
United States in the Northern Central Rail.
way case is a great triumph for the State of
Maryland The State has had for many
years an annuity of $4,000 secured by
mortgage on this railroad. The annuity
was paid regularly in quarterly installments
down to 1900, in which year the railroad
company claimed the right to extinguish
the annuity by the payment OF million
and half dollars. A tender was made of
this amount, which the State refused. There
upon the railroad company prayed for
mandatory injunction to compel the State
to accept the sum. The State was also en-
Joined from collecting the annuity. The ar.
rearages now due the State on this account
amount to $4,000, all of which this decis
ion will bring into the Treasury. The court
In Baltimore city decided the case against
the railroad and the Court of Appeals affirm
ed the decision. The railroad company then
took the case to the Supreme Court Of the
United States upon writ Of error That court
adopted the views of Attorney General Isidor
Rayner and dismissed the writ for lack Of
jurisdiction This decision will not only
bring into the State Treasury the $4,000
of back interest, which the State would have
lost if the decision had been the other way,
but the State, instead Of getting only 81 $780,
900 of principal, will be able, It is thought,
to get almost three million dollars for it. 1t
can be sold and the State debt can be can.
celed to that extent, or 1t can be retained
and the annuity of $4,000 will pay the in.
terest on three millions of the State debt. A
sale OF this annuity at this time and the pur.
chase money added to the sinking fund
would reduce the State debt under two mil
lion dollars, and the sale of the States stock
in the Washington Branch of the Baltimore
and Ohio at its real value would almost pay
that The States finances are thus In q
very healthy condition. The Attorney
General in his successful prosecution of tbs
important case deserves the highest COM
mendation.
The annuity was created by Chapter 800
of the Acts of 1854. The Baltimore and
Susquehanna road was consolidated with
number of others to form the Northern
Central The Baltimore and Susquehanns
owed the State large sum in stock and
mortgages, for which this annuity was taken
as compromise. The Act of 1854 gave the
railroad company the right to extinguish the
annuity of 100000 by the payment of ST..
100000 any time within 10 years after the
passage of the act. The contention of the
State was that this right expired with the
10 years, and this view was taken by the
State courts. The Legislature in 1893 en-
acted law authorizing the Board Of Pub
lie Works to sell the annuity for sum not
less than the capitalization of the annuity
at 81 per cent This act the railroad con-
tended was in effect to impair the obliga-
ton of a contract, and upon that theory
went to the Federal court-.Bd Sun
