HAY LAUDs ROOSEVELT.

At the banquet of the Ohio society, held in New

and election in 1904. Although matter ofsformaly it
unnecessary for all the world knows Roosevelts
ambition in that respect.
Past experience hasn't shown that Roosevelt is such

exception of that of Odell last fall Roosevelt with the
sistance Of McKneys administration, carried New York
by 1900; Odel with the assistance of Roosevelts adj
ministration, carried the state by 5000.
1t remains to be whether the of the ma

HOBSON'S CHOICE.

Time when Hobson upon every womans

tongues of women aud not in his presence Hobson
gained, all will remember great by taking the
hulk Merrimac into the mouth of the harbor at San
impede the egress of Cerveras fleet when it wanted to
out to destruction. Of course it was the inter-
ton to- sink the hulk where would impede such
and it is nothing to Hobsons dscredt that his plan mis-
carried The hulk sunk in good faith Hobson and
the five six with him swan for their lives and
escaped the fusade fred by Spanards nearby hills
who couldn't have hit flock of flying batt1eships how
ever.
The bravery OF Hobson's action won instant recoc-
itioH and he the popular hero of the hour until he
began touring the country and trying kiss all the silly
sounding smack registered drop in Hobson's popu-
1arity
Hobson sailed around the country for quite while
doing ecturing, good deal of posing and ended I'D by
complaining of defective eyesght and asking retirement
upon full part pay Retirement refused for the
reason that the examining boards were unable to
discover physical inrties sufficient to justify the gov
in keeping him in ideness on pay for the re-
mander of his life.
The prospect of election to congress was thought
be behind his desire for retirement toe. But be that
it may, he is confronted with the choice of re-
signing from the army going Puget sound and
those who remember his bravery Santiago hope he will
aeeept his assignment and make good the enthusiasm Of
his admirers at thae time.

BERLIN BoERsE STRONG.
Pessimistic Utterances Overcome by
Favorable Features in the Markets.

BERLIN, Jan. 18-The boerse
showed several strong features last
week. While the market was disap-
pointed over Minister of Finance
Rheinlaben's pessimistic utterances on
the business situation, and lower esti-
mates in the Prussian budget for rail-
road supplies than were expected, VAL
ueS were generally well maintained.
The most striking feature of the week
was the. recovery in the shares of
ocean navigation companies upon the
announcement that the dividend Of the
Hamburg American Steam Packet
company would reach Az per cent, as
against per cent last year, whereas
operators had expected q dividend Of
only per cent. The statement issued
by the Hamburg company that the
outward freight market had greatly
/ improved, through heavy shipments to
the United States, also aided the re-
covery. The foregoing announce
ments carried the shares of all ocean
navigation companies up strongly,
Hamburg American gaining $40 and
North German Lloyd 1.60, but yester-
day a. Bremen news agency announced
| that the earnings this year of the
North German Lloyd company would
be 100000 or 100000 marks against
100000 marks last year, and that
the company was probably passing a
dividend owing to heavy write-offs.
The previous dividend paid by the
North German Lloyd was 6 per cent
The second feature of the market
was the strength of coal shares, as a
result Of the coal scarcity in the United
States, the abolition of the coal duty
in that country and the large ship
ments of English coal to the United
States.
Irons barely held their own this
week, Notwithstanding the fact that
the news from the producing centers
was mostly somewhat better Other
industrials, especially zines, textiles
and real estates were firm. Banks
were moderately high. Domestic loans
were weak. Domestic threes declined
slightly, and this market was practi-
caHy without buyers, owing to the
Forthcoming new issues.
Money rose moderately the middle
of the week, owing to demands for
the repayment of loans to the refchs-
bank and heavy offerings of American
drafts. Rates are now down, money
being very abundant, and the demand
light. Foreign exchange is accordingly
/ flrm, especially on London, Paris and

COAL DEALERS INDICTED.

Chicagos special grand jury made quick work of the
coal investigation and this morning will into court
indictments against forty odd coal Dealers wholesale and
retail. for conspiracy the coal supply
The specific charge against the indicted is con-
spracy to restrict the supply of coal in Illinois and to
maintain set price for the commodity far above its
NAL value 1t is also said the defendants may be pun
ished for forestalling the market
The jury adjourned late Saturday night and it was
impossible to get the of the indicted, al
though admitted by of the jurors that of
them very prominent dealers in Chicago and else
where III Illinois.
1t was declared by another member Of the jury that
the evidence which surrounds the accused Shows
eusively that there Unbound conspiracy existing
among the different associations which the mine oper-
ators the wholesale Dealers the dealers the track
and the little retailers have formed and that through
these associations the entire bitumnous trade is

IS said to be to fleece the public he continued and the

AGAINST AMERICAN COMMERCE.

For number of years it seems to have been set
tied policy OF the government treasury department. when
ever tariff question up for the department adJu
dication and ruling render decision OF the strctest
technical Interpretation in favor of the special interest
protected by the tariff and far possible away from
liberal Interpretation in the interests of trade and the
general public.
The ruling of about year ago the sugar tariff,
where the entire export trade Of the United States with
Russia was placed in jeopardy by extreme and techni-
cal Interpretation in the interests of the trust is
prominent illustration of long train of rulings similar
in kind if in degree. Last Saturdays ruling against
the Commercial Pacific Cable company and in the III
terests of the rubber and copper and surdry other
bines is in mulch the same line.
Importatens of products and materials used in the
manufacture of articles for export to foreign countries
admitted free of duty Imported articles held for
port free of duty placed in bonded warehouse
until withdrawn for export. The Commercial Pacific
Gable company had imported cable to be used for the
repair of their cable lying the bottom of the Pacific
ocean outside of American waters. On the supposton
that the material be used outside of American territory
on the bottom of the would receive the lib
era treatment products exported European Asiac
African consumers the cable company sought to with
draw the cable from the bonded warehouse without pay
of duty.

Cloth Market Stronn-

MANCHESTER, Jan. 18.-The cloth
market showed a strong tone in several
directions last week. Quotations in
most quarters were mostly higher. I'M
portant business has been executed
lately, and sellers are more indepen-
dent. The advance in the price Of
cotton has provoked different opinions
regarding the immediate result, some
persons maintaining it has checked
business, while others declare it has
brought business out. In some direc-
lions much buying has resulted from
necessity or panic; others are resist
ing the higher rates and prefer to
wait. Many offers were impracticable.
A good inquiry prevails, however, and
considerable business has transpired
in all descriptions of China staples.
The Calcutta turnover improved the
demand, and the smaller outlets are
healthy.
Yarns improved on inquiry, and the
turnover was fairly satisfactory.
