TO SUCCEED TEMPLE.
Bishop of Winchester for Vacant
Archbishopric of Canterbury.


London, Dec. 27.-Between the bishop
of Winchester and the bishop of London
it is now generally believed that the for
me- will be chosen crinate to succeed
the late archbishop of Canterbury, DR..
Frederick Temple. 1t is said that the
bishop of LONDON will not be seriously
disappointed at his failure to gain the
honor, as he is thoroughly wrapped up
in the great movement of which he is
head, to create better conditions for the
working classes of the metropolis.
DIR. Temples death shows how much
he was loved and respected by the Eng
fish people. Ever since he came into
prominence he had been celebrated for
his Democratic manner and his severe
cast of countenance.
THE grim old bishop" he was popu-
larly called. Now that he is dead the
milk of human kindness which flowed in
a strong current through his veins, finds
expression everywhere.
DR. Temples "'grim aspect was only
a mask behind which lay concealed the
kindliest and most charitable nature.
When he was a master at Rugby, be-
fore advancing years mellowed him, the
boys who had occasion to feel his dis
pleasure were wont to call him "a beast
but a Just beast" and they were
pleared at the discovery that he felt
battered by this judgment.
DR.. Temple possessed kind of rough
humor, which modified in consonance
with his vocation. often resembled
strikingly that accorded to Abraham
Lincoln. In many ways their charac-
tiers We're similar.

POOR CAN BUY BEEF.
High Prices of Meat Now Beginning
to Take Tumble.

Chicago. Dec. 27.-Beef prices have
taken a tumble, and choice cuts are now
within the reach of all. Prices are four
cents a pound lower than in the sum
mer months. and have been for ninety
days. and if the retailers are maintain
ing the old scale they are mulcting their
customers, say representatives of the
packing house industries. The ranges in
all sections of the big feeding districts
are plentifully stocked with high grade
cattle. and there is no danger of any
scarcity for months to come. the packers
say. The packers also say the big drop
in prices has not in the slightest degree
been brought about by the government
proceedings against the alleged beef
trust; that the changes for the benefit OF
the consumer are due to supply and de-
mand causes exclusively.
AT the present cost" said Arthur
Meeker, of Armour & Co, the poor man
can better afford beef than ever before
Since about three months ago we have
been selling carcasseS to retailers at
about four cents pound less than the
cost in the middle of the summer. Pork
and mutton are also cheaper. The rea-
son for the drop is the lower cost of
beef on the hoof. We are now buying
cattle at cents per pound, as compared
with S cents in the summer"

FINDS FAULT WITH DAM.
Fish Commission Says Mr.. Bowersock
Should Change It.

Congressman Bowersock's dam across
the Kaw at Lawrence is the subject of
an attack by John Haughey, state fish
warden, in his annual report to Governor
Stanley, filed last evening. He says the
legislature should compel the construc-
ton of fishway over the dam, so that
fish may get above the ddm and ascend
the Kaw and it's tributaries He says:
u desire to call your attention to the
dam across the Kaw river at Lawrence.
1t is SO constructed that it is a menace
to the fish industry of northern and CEN
trail Kansas. The owners should be com
PEELED by the legislature to construct a
proper fishway, so that fish can get up
and over the dam at all times of the
year
Warden Haughey says that the present
game and fish laws of Kansas are In
adequate for the protection of those in
terested and he suggests a remedy for
the defects He recommends that d game
and fish commissioner be appointed in
place of the fish warden. and he also
says a state fish hatchery would yield
tremendous financial returns to the peo-
pie of the state.

before. Prices Of commodities are firm

and there is a good export movement
of the leading staples. In this, as in
many other instances. however, there is
still the drawback of inadequate trans
portation facilities which restrict ship
ments to the seaboard. Financial con-
ditions are satisfactory Railway earn
ings thus far this month surpass last
year by 5 per cent and those of 1900 by
11.6 per cent.
Quiet conditions in the iron and steel
industry, unaccompanied by any sign of
weakness, testify to the healthy tone
and suggest bright outlook for the
coming year. Furnaces and mills will
extend the season of idleness beyond the
ing, but in order to accumulate mod
crate supply of coke. The situation in
regard to shipments from Connellsville
has not improved. A very large amount
of business will be carried over into next
year, probably more than in any pre-
viOus season. New contracts have
come forward more slowly of late,
mainly because of the uncertainty as to
date of delivery, although there are
prospective purchasers who still antici-
pate better terms in 1903. Foreign pig
iron is offered slightly below domestic
quotations. but neither imported nor
date use in large quantities. Independ-.
ent steel mills claim they are unable to
pay present prices for billets, which cost
$31 or more for early shipment.
New England shoe factories are in
full operation and have liberal orders on
hand. Quota tons are firm, but withous
change, as there is little new business
coming forward at this time to produce
fluctuations. Leather dealings have
been restricted less than usual by the
holidays, shoe manufacturers coming
into the market for large quantities of
hemlock sole.
An Unexpectedly favorable feature has
appeared in the market for cotton goods
After i long season of stagnation in the
export division, the demand from China
suddenly became considerable, notwith-
standing the depression in silver and
liberal stocks of cottons in Shanghai. Do
nestle trade is limited to immediate re-
quirements, as is seasonable, yet there is
sufficient buying in most lines to prevent
undesirable accumulation of supplies.
Collections are satisfactory both at the
there is a good demand, overcoatings
providing the chief feature, but cloak
manufacturers have also bought freely,
especially of light colored lines. Wooden
and woTsted dress goods are quiet, but
steady, and light supplies sustain fiannels.
Wool is strong, with a further advance
anticipated next year. Failures for the
week numbered 200 in the United States
against $50 last year, and 81 in Canada,
compared with % a year ago.
