you give the people over here any liberty
at all they Will ask for more So you
must abandon this policy, proclaimed by
/ the Commission for the very purpose Of
/ pacifying the people. What was this but
the act of a meddlesome marplot, trying
TO defeat the end and the work OF the
Commission. and TO make trouble for his
own Government?
Indiscriminate Abuse of Filipinos.
1.-THE very speech in which he proposes
the gallows is filled with the most in
discriminate abuse of the whole Philip
pines people, leaders and followers, who
are pictured by Funston as the vilest race
OF reptiles that ever crawled upon the
face of the earth He dismisses with con-

Sewing as business is an exacting and

these are only SOME of the things

DENNY CONVICTED.
A ST. Louis Millionaire rs Found
GuiltY of Perjury,

St. Louis, Dec. G.-After two days
of trial, Charles j. Denny, the mill
lionaire brewer and director in the
Suburban Street Railway Co., for
merIy a member of the house of del
cgatcs, charged with perjury in con
nection with the Suburban bill Doodle
case, was found guilty yesterday and
his punishment fixed at two years in
the penitentiary. The only defense
offered by Judge Krum, attorney for
Denny, was testimony in behalf of the
Defendants good character.
Judge Krum argued that while the
defendant may have had information
that $4,000 had been placed on de-
posht in the Lincoln Trust Co., to be
paid out for votes for the passage of
the Suburban bill, he had no positive
knowledge of it, and, therefore, did
not commit perjury when he told the
grand jury he had no such knowledge.
Circuit Attorney Folk insisted that
Denny did know absolutely that the
money had been deposited for that
purpose and, therefore, periured him
self before the grand jury.

A PENSION SYSTEM.
The Southern Pac' fie Establishes One
for Railroad EinpIOyes.


San Francisco, Dec. 6.-President
Hartman, of the Southern Pacific
Railroad Co., has inaugurated a sys-
tenn of pensioning employees who have
grown old in the service of the COM
pany and a circular has been issued
outlining the plan. In general fhe
plan is similar to the system of tbs
Pennsylvania, Illinois Central and
the Chicago & Northwestern roads.
Employees who have attained the age
of 70 years, and who have been in tho
service twenty years or more, are to
receive pensions on the basis of /
per cent. per annum of the average
salary received for ten years pre-.
vious to pensioning for each year of
service.
Thus an employe whose pay has
averaged $1,000 a year for ten years
prior to retirement, and who had
been in the service of the company
for 30 years, would receive pension
equal to 30 per cent. of $1,000 or $500
a year.
Between the ages of 81 and 70
years employees incapacitated for fur
Their work may he retired by pen
sion board, provided they shall have
been in the service 20 years or more.
The employees make no contribu-
tions to the fund, pensions being paid
by the company in fun and without
any condition, the employees being az
liberty to engage in other business,
after being pensioncd, should they

ORDER is UNJUST.
Pennsylvania's Governor Wants
Quarantine Raised.
Foot and Mouth Disease, Eao Says, Is
Confined TO Small Area Around
Boston England Is willing
10 Remove Ban Against
American Cattle.

Harrisburg, Pa, Dec. 6.--Gov. Stone
has taken prompt action to raise the
quarantine which has been ordered
by Gov. Yates. of Illinois, against
Pennsylvania cattle on account of the
foot and mouth disease which exists
amOng CATTLE in the New England
states. Gov. Stone wrote a letter to
Gov. Yates protesting against his ac-
tion and advising him that there has
been no such disease in this state
since 1882, that there has been none
in New York and there is none and
has been none in New Jersey.
"To quarantine against Pennsylva-
mia is to say, in effect continues
Gov Stone, that the cattle of Penn
sylvania are diseased or suspected.
There is no shadow of truth in the
aspersion and it will seriously injure
the export of cattle from all the
states, as they nearly all pass
through Pennsylvania en- route to
port for export.
"The effect of your order is to say
that there is danger of foot and
mouth disease infection in the states
around and close to New York, Phil
adelphia and Baltimore. Your action
may cause an uniustifable scare that
will iniure the whole export trade in
live animals in this country.
"1Nhe foot and mouth disease in the
United States is confined to terri
tory within a radius of 100 miles from
Boston. | hope that you will with
draw your quarantine order against
those states not infected and against
which the federal authorities find no
reason to quarantine"
Albany, n. Y, &c. 6.-State Supcrin-
tendent of Agriculture Charles A.
Wieting has notified all railroads do
ing business in this state that there
is am outbreak of foot and mouth dis
ease among the animals in New
Hampshire, Vermont, Massachusetts,
Rhode Island and Connecticut and or
ders them to cause all cars in which
any animals have been trans ported
since August l, to be thoroughly dis
infected before further use. Forty
special inspectors viii be on the state
borders to enforce the order.
London. Dee. G.-The board of ag-
riculture has intimated its willing
ness to remove the embargo on cattle
arriving from New England ports
whenever the American department
of agriculture considers that the out
break is suppressed. The board last
night issued an order enabling the
landing of cattle under certain re-
strictions from the steamer Irishman,
which has arrived at Liverpool from
Boston; the steamers Kansas and Vic
tOrian. due at Liverpool from BOs-
ton, and the steamer Cambrian, due
ot L"ntlon from Boston.
Meantime the importers here say
that the quarantine has little effect
on the American meat supply, since
the bulk comes from the west and it
is merely a question of shipping the
cattle by way of New York instead
of Boston.

BUSINESS ACTIVITY.
1t Continues to Exceed that of PROVE
OuS Hears-Esrices are Lower than .
Xaar

New York, Dec. G.-R. G. Dun &
Co. S Weekly Review of Trade says:
Aside from the interruption to re
tail trade in winter goods at many
points by unreasonable weather. busi-
ness activity continues in excess Of
previous years, and it is probable
that all the postponed trade will be
made up now THAT low temperature
has become general.
While the warmest November on
record at the east affected sales of
clothing, it helped to restore the fuel
equilibrium. Manufacturing plants
are well engaged, and an evidence of
the successful season is found in
much larger Fall River dividends.
The course of commodity prices IS
shown by Dun's index number, which
was S100,449 on December against
S99,559 on November /, and S1O1,37s on
December /, 1901. Higher prices for
dairy and garden products account
for the rise during November, but it
Is particularly gratifying to the con-
sumer that the present level is nearly
/ per cent. lower than at the CORE
spending date last year. This change
Is also in foOdstuffs, where the cost
Of living was abnormally expanded
by short crops in 1901.
lrregularity is reported in the iron
and steel market, most departments
having much business. while few are
seeking new orders and seem dis
posed to make slight concessions. Sta
bility is naturally most conspicuous
In those divisions where it has been
possible TO grevent imitation.

Schooner Wesley OIer Goes Doyn

Hatteras, y. c., Dec. 6.-The oDserv-
er of the weather bureau reports that
the fOur-masted schooner Wesley NJ
Oler went ashore at IIatteras Inlet
life saving station early Friday
morning during the storm. She was
pounding in the surf about "A mile off
shore until 500 m, when the fore
mast went over, carrying probably
the last man. Almost Immediately
the vessel went to pieces. The life
saving crew could do nothing to save
the crew.
Norfolk, Va, Dec. 6.-Reports re-
ceived at Norfolk are to the effect
that none of the ill-fated schooner
Wesley NJ. Oler's crew escaped. Only
one chance of a rescue is known. The
German steamer Koln, from Bremen
to Baltimore, reported the crew of an
abandoned schooner aboard while en-
tering the capes yesterday.
The three-masted schooners Will
liam ID. Hilton and Melville Phillips,
with several smaller craft, were
blown ashore in the harbor and low
er bay by Friday mornings gale. The
steamer Underwater, which was tow
! ing the Oler from Nassau, has not
been heard from and fears are enter
/ tanned that she foundered in the gale.
+ The crew of the schooner Ida Law
renee abandoned that vessel in a rud-
derless condition off Hatteras early
Friday morning and were rescued
with great difficulty by life savers.
Cape Henry, Va. Dec. 6.-Captain
Gangreutcr, of the German steamship
