70 Oespefataou.
 New York. Oct. 1o.--Myeterious features surround two attempts at murder and afterward a suicide on the lower west side. On Wednesday Mrs. Adams, wife of a plasterer. was admitted to hospi- tai where she is being treated for a bull let wound in the head. She was accom- panied by Henry Brockstedt. How she received the wound Is not known as the stories told do not agree. Twenty-four hours later Brockstedt entered the Adams house and found the husband of the wounded woman there alone. He at tackled Adams with a revolver. beating him over the head and then shot him. The police took up the chase and a few hours later found Brockstedt dead in his room in Dominick Street. He had swal- lowed a quantity of carbOiic acid and then shot himself. Adams was conveyed to the hospital where his wife lay. The couple were permitted to converse, but no clear idea could be gathered of the shooting other than that Brockstedt had attempted c double murder. because of jealousy.

SUGAR PLANTATION LABOR.

Labor conditions on the sugar plan.
tations OF Louisiana are unsatisfac.
tory. There has been a shortage, par.
ticularly of negro labor, and grinding
was delayed. Some of the cane was
caught by freeze with considerable
loss to plantation owners.
Planters have tried to supply their
deficiency by importing labor from
Alabama, Georgia and South Caro-
lima. 1t is complained, however, that
the negroes work only for one year in
Louisiana and then move on to Ar.
kansas, where they are better treated.
Planters are urged to let the colored
men seek work where they can get the
best terms instead Of trying to keep
them on plantations in a condition of
peonage or servitude. In most cases,
the negro finds himself in debt to the
plantation at the end of season and
he Is not allowed to leave. His rem.
edy then is to run away, which he
does, to Arkansas, leaving his few
household goods behind him-also his
debts. The planters are the heavier
losers.
II Hawaiian planters are seeking
Italian labor in Louisiana, it seems
that there would be some difficulty in

They believe. or some of them do, that

ABUNDANT FEDERAL MONEY

Bank.note circulation. secured by
United States bonds, is rapidly declin,
ing, and If It continues at the existing
rate It will have fallen to about $780,.
100000 by September next-the
height Of the crop.moving season-as
compared with nearly $329,0OO,OOO in
September last. Reduction OF circu.
lation is limited by law to 100000
monthly. while there is fortunately no
limit to the increase of note issues.
Within three months the total circula.
ton has fallen by S6,O00,O0O the loss
being almost entirely upon the new
2 per cent bonds which are the most
profitable basis Of circulation, and
which were very largely awaited of to
increase circulation Immediately after
the refunding provisions of the gold
standard law which authorized their
issue. Having proved disappointing
to the banks, these bonds have been
withdrawn and thrown upon the mar.
ket under the stimulus of recent high
prices.
The upward tendency of United
States bond values was not checked
by the transfer OF $6.O0O,OOO to the
open market because a greater amount
had been withdrawn by the Treasury
Departments policy of debt reduction.
In less than three months the principal
OF the bonds redeemed had reached
s1S,673,OG0, on which premiums and
interest amounted to S4,G99,S70 There
is no doubt that very high premiums
have been paid for these unmatured
bonds in order to prevent the with.
drawal of money from the open mar.
ket, and the time seems to be ap.
preaching when some other method
must be found of keeping the Treas.
ury surplus under control. This is a
problem to be met by the new Score.

At the end Of the current fiscal y, ar,
June ~ next, the total year treasury

100000. Hitherto the cash balance
has been kept under control by lib,
eral purchase of bonds at high pre-.
miums. But If this be stopped and no
other steps be taken to check the sur.
plus it will amount to some 1925, O0O..
900 including the cash already on
hand. Another year at the same rate
would find 1926, 100000 of cash locked
up in the Treasury, causing a serious

DEPARTMENT OF COMMERCE.

II looks as If the bill to establish a
Department of Commerce at Wash.
ington is likely to become law during
the present session of Congress. This
has been hanging fire. for several
years and now the national labor in.
terests are included among the du.
ties Of the new Secretary. Work
| enough is provided to keep the de.
partment busy from its inception.
From the Treasury and Interior he.
partments there have been transfer.
red all the bureaus Of lighthouses and
life.saving services, marine hospital,
steamboat inspection, bureau OF naW
CATION, shipping commissioners. bu.
reau Of immigration. bureau of stats.
tics, census Office. department of labor
commission of fish and fisheries. also
the bureau of foreign commerce.
With these duties are included the
promotion and development of foreign
and domestic commerce.; the mining,
manufacturing, shipping, transporta.
ton and labor interests of the coun.
try. To aid him in these multitude
nous duties. the secretary of com.
merce is provided with an assistant
secretary, one chief clerk and a dis
bursting clerk.
Considering the enormous develop.
ment of the business and commercial
interests of the United States. the
new department should be able to do
much good by watching similar affairs
in other countries as well as at home.
But II 1t is overloaded With a multi.
plicity of other duties that are but
indirectly related to business, com.
merce and labor, and without a suffi.
cheney of help to manage them, there
is danger of the department failing
to achieve the main objects for which
it is created.

ed there.
Another field for plantation labor
seems to exist in Corea. That coun.
try is more populous to the square
mile than is China. The Coreans are
hardy race of men and they have
shown, in aiding in the construction
Of the Russian railroads, that they are
steady, reliable and effective workers.
Possibly their ideas of remuneration
might be lower than those of the Chi.
nese, their mode of living being very
crude and primitive. They exist in
cheaply constructed wooden, clay or
rice.straw houses with the bare earth
for the floor, even the cheapest mats
being rarely seen. Chairs are an un.
known quantity, and they use nothing
that is worthy of the name of bed
There is no treaty that would pre-
vent either Italians or Coreans from

Hawaii and laborers Of either of these
two nationalities may help planters
here out of their difficulties.
OF the twort the Italian is far more
to be desired as a laborer and a citi.
zen. The Corean represents cheap
labor; the Italian intelligent labor.
Though previous endeavors to obtain
Italians from either the Mainland or
Italy have met with expensive re-.
verses. there is no doubt that the fam.
lilies can and will be obtained If the
struggle is continued with the same
determination to win success that
marks the general activity of the lead.

Senator Depew knows, as does ev-

the local official organ method of con.

they must work with the voters, rec.

work If they hope to accomplish re.
