Trade yesterday took a good deal Of
activity. good many mail orders were

also were quite numerous, and all these
combined TO make a busy day with the
wholesale dry goods houses, the druggists,

chants. and, in fact, in all lines of whole
sale trade. On Commission row a good
deal of business was transacted. In vege-
tables there were no important changes In
price. but choice apples ruled stronger. and
oranges, which are still in light supply,
were firm. Lemons are easier in tone.
Peaches are about off the market, but still
some very good fruit is offered Pears are

abundant supply. The produce markets
carry an easier tone. but no change of
prices was made Reports from the East
showed that poultry and butter are in bet
ter supply and prices lower. Leather is
more active, and prices, while no higher.
are very strong, and hides show some
signs of Improvement. Hog products are
still fast movers, although the tendency to
higher prices has been checked, and on
some descriptions lower prices are reported.
Flour is firm in tone but no higher, nor is
1t thought there will he any material
changes for some time to come.

Protest and Expla alton.

To the Editor OF the indianapolis Journal:
You will allow US respectfully to pro-
test against the opening sentence of an
article In to-day's issue. dealing with our
appeal to the State Board of Election Com
missioners to refuse place on the ballot
the so-called Socialist party. The SEN
tence to which We take exception reads as
follows:
What appears to be a three-cornered
fight between the Socialist party on one
hand and the Socialist Labor party and the
Democratic party on the other is now on
over giving the Socialist party a position
OF the State ticket"
We venture to urge that this is hardly
fair; hardly justified by the Information
of your article. We would not attempt In
your columns to open a discussion OF the
relative merits OF the two organizations
the Socialist Labor party and the so-called
Socialist party--out would repudizte
the insinuatlon that we are In any way in
spired by the Democratic party. We are
proud to say that since our party first

mitted to accept the Endorsement OF any

Drifting Into a Rate War.

Every day makes it more evident that
before freight rates can be fully main
tanned there must be a further merging
of roads which are now known as indie
pendent lines and fix tariffs regardless of
profits. That such roads must be bought
up regardless of cost is coming to be well
understood. An Eastern financial paper
says: What with roads like the Chicago
Great Western and the Wisconsin Central
cutting rates right and left, community
Of interest is certainly getting black
eye from which it will not soon recover.
few words on the aggressive hustling
for business of the Chicago Great Western
will not be out of place. 1t is not so long
ago since contracts were made with the
Kansas City packing house interests,
whereby a good percentage of their bust
ness was secured to Mr.. Stickney's road
at rates which, though less than the other
railroads were charging, assured large
traffic with fair margin of profit. Now,
at time when the larger systems have
hardly recovered from their establishment
at the audacity of this move, comes the
announcement of further trouble. 1t seems
that the lines touching Colorado points
think was TO act with Great Western Off
Gals and straightway they cut rates on
steel and iron articles to Missouri river
points 45 per cent. Following upon the re-
cent cut in the rates on cattle from st.
Paul to Chicago this reduction is not cal
culated to make for peace in the Western
railroad world and reprisals may be ex-
pected. The lesson being driven home to
the larger system, however, is plain-the
Chicago Great Western must be taken
care of in the interest of stability of rates.
Unless bought off. there is no telling but
that, like the st. Paul, 1T may push west
ward to the Pacific slope, in which event It's
strategic position will be greatly en-
hanced.'
