WILL OPPOSE BALFOUR
DUKE OF DEvONSHIRE TO PRESIDE
OVER FREE FOOD LEAGUE.
Organization That VIII Make Strong
Fight Against the Premier's and
ChamberIainss Fiscal Policy.

LONDON, Oct. 16-The Duke OF Devon
shire. late lord president of the council. has
conditionally accepted the presidency of the
Free Food League, which is organizing
campaign against the fiscal policy of Mr..
Chamberlain and Mr.. Balfour. This impor-
tant move in the fiscal contest developed to-
night at the meeting of the parliamentary
committee of the league when letter from
the Duke of Devonshire to Sir Michael
Hicks-Beach, Mr.. Ritchie's predecessor as
chancellor of the exchequer, accepting the
proffered presidency of the league upon GER
tain conditions. was read. The conditions
do not affect the objects of the league. The
committee passed a resolution accepting the
conditions and this action was communi-
Gated Immediately to the Duke of Devon
shire. Mr.. Richie, the late chancellor of
the exchequer. and Lord George Hamilton.
late secretary of state for India, have also
joined the league.
Lord Goschen, who was chancellor of the
exchequer in Lord Salisbury's second adj
ministration, delivered strong speech in
London tonight against the taxation of
food. He pointed out that France and Ger
many had begun with small taxes on wheat,
which had risen rapidly with the agrarian
demand, with the result in Graet Britain
the price of wheat was about seven shil-
lings less per quarter than in Germany and
from eight TO twelve shillings below the
price in France. He said there was no doubt
that such taxes were paid by the consumer
and as Great Britain was dependent upon
foreign supplies for four-tifths of her food
requirements, as compared to Germany,
which took one-third of her food supplies
from foreigners, and France, which took
but 2 per cent, 1t would be most inadvisable
thus to tax food. In addition TO this the
speaker said there was no guarantee that
the colonies would be satisfied with this
small tax proposed. They might demand an
increased tax, then there would be friction
and the renewed cry that the empire was
endangered TO justify the concession of the
increased demand. With regard to the
prospect of workmen being better paid I'M
der the proposed plan, Lord Goschen pointed
out that wages in Germany were 20 per
cent lower than in Great Britain, while it
was preposterous TO suppose that the small
tax of two shiliings wheat would APP
preciably benefit the agriculture of Great
Britain

Fair Volume of Trade.

NEW YORK, Oct. 16.-R. G. Dun & Co.'S
Weekly Review OF Trade tomorrow will
say: while some contraction in trade and
industry has undoubtedly taken place. it is
not in proportion to the reduction OF 20 per
cent. in pig iron output. or the reaction in
prices OF securities, although in normal
years these have usually proved fairly re-
liable barometers. Many branches of man.
ufacture, however, are working full force
with large orders still untitled, while the
latest returns of the crops are most encour-
aging. Finance and labor are the disturb
ing elements this year, neutraliZed very
largely by favorable commercial and agri-
cultural conditions. The net result is a
fairly well maintained volume of trade, off,
set by conservatism in carrying out pro-
tected new undertakings and proposed ex-
tensions OF facilities. Railway earnings thus
far available for October are GO per cent
larger than last year and 1871 per cent above
1901.
Failures this week number 20S in the
United States, against zoo last year, and in
Canada Is, compared with "A a year ago.

WHY CORBIN WAS SHIFTED.
A White House Belief that There Was
at Times seTOO Much COrbin."

Washington Special in N. Y. Post
Major General Corbin, who is back at
his desk this morning. said to your cor
respondent regarding his appointment to
the command of the Department of the
East II am very glad indeed, and feel
much complimented 1 always liked New
York. You remember 1 came her from
New York"
Comment in army circles upon this re-
markable move continues varied and con-
fiicting. One officer summarized the sit
uation by saying that it was made ito re-
lieve embarrassment rather than friction"
1t is pointed out that the general staff
scheme in operation relegates Corbin, as
adjutant general, to 4 relatively inSgnif-
cant position. This was pointed out to him
before the bill was passed, but he favored
the scheme so strongly that he said he
would willingly be sergeant major. if
necessary, to bring it to pass. In operation,
however, he has felt the loss of his old
influence. 1t also seemed undesirable to
have in one Washington bureau the two
ranking officers of the army.
General Corbns transfer 70 the most i'm
portant place in the line, his friends sug
gest, will give him a double claim to pro-
motion as chief Of staff the retirement
of General Chaffee, or, If his term of serv-
ice would then be too short, for his retire
ment as lieutenant general.
While such transfer from the staff to
the. line would be very exceptional, it is
entirely consonant with the conditions Gre
ated by the general staff act. Even with
out the new law it is entirely proper, ac-
cording to the judge advocate general, who
has been looking up the precedents. General
Jessup, in the Seminole war, was trans
ferred from his post as quartermaster gen.
eral to the command of the troops. The
new law simply facilitates and encourages
such moves.
While General Corbin has been loyal to
the President and necessarily brought into
close and outwardly cordial relations with
him, it is no secret that Mr.. Roosevelt was
not originally a Corbin man, and did not
enter upon the duties of the presidential
office with the same estimate of the adju-
tant generals services that was held by
President Mckinley. The White House has
at times felt that there was too much Cor
bin," and it was doubtless thought that,
with the new law and new secretary of
war, a new deal all around would be de-
sirable.
Social considerations doubtless figure in
the new ARRANGEMENT. The mansion which
General Corbin is building here has been
cited as a reason for believing the present
transfer to be as unwelcome as unexpected.
To this his friends reply that when the
building was undertaken the general staff
law looked a long way off, even if it's
actual working in reference 10 the adjutant
general was not fully anticipated. The So
cial prominence of the New York command
would ordinarily be more coveted than that
which goes with the generals present post
