COMPETITION FELT.
Canadian Competition Felt in England

and America.
London, Dec. 1.-The Standard this
morning, noting the recent curtailment
of pig iron production in the United
States, says:
Notwithstanding this severe reduc.
ton in output, stocks have steadily in
creased here from 100000 tons in MAY
to SS1 800 toes il October, largely ow.
ing to the imports of bounty-fed
Canadian iron and steel. This Canadian
competition, which is bound to grow.
is viewed with misgiving, and it is only
the boom in the United States that
has saved the British producer from
the severe effect Of a competition fos.

The center of tho coal and iron in

The extraordinary richness of the
fields, the cheapness of production. and

such articles during the period of military
government. He also read General Wood s
reply to the adjutant general, which, the
witness said. had been sent over the head
of his superior officer, saying that freedom
of speech untrammeled criticism of the
military government and absolute indie
pendence in all matters was a necessary
part of the education of the Cubans to fit
them to conduct a liberal government.
General Brooke told the committee that on
January 4, 1899. General Wood. without
consulting his superior officer, obtained per-
mission to visit Washington. even though
he left in allegiance matters needing atten-
ton. Correspondence relating to the trip
was laid before the committee.
In the course of General Brookes testi-
mony he said that General Wood became
unduly excited when the Cubans held in
pose of protesting against the Capitalization
order The witness laid before the com
mittee a copy of a telegram he received
from General Wood saying that the Cubans
looked upon the order as approaching
calamity and that discomfort and profound
business depression existed. Finally Gen
eral Wood prayed that the customs receipts
be left under local control. The witness
declared that the attitude of General Wood
was responsible to great extent in adding
to the oisquiet of the Cubans.
Members of the committee took a great
interest in General Brooke's testimony and
stems were taken to have copied a number
of the papers he offered in evidence.
Major Rathbone was before the committee
for half an hour yesterday afternoon. The
committee asked him if he desired to have
additional witnesses summoned, and as
result of the conference a number of sub

MOTIONS OVERRULED
DEFENSE WANTED THE INDICT-
MENTs QUAsHED.
Jury Obtained and One Witness Exam
ined in Postal Fraud Case
at Baltimore.

Before the jury was sworn in the case of
McGregor and Upton in Baltimore yester-
day counsel for the defense offered two
motions, one to quash the indictments and
the other to require the government to
elect upon which of the counts in the in
dctments The government intended to pro-
coed. Both motions We're overruled by
Judge Morris.
The government attorneys announced
that they proposed to prove that McGregor
and Upton had last winter gone to the
leather store kept by Charles E. Smith in
Baltimore, and had contracted with Smith
to furnish the government with 10000
leather pouches, for use in the rural free
delivery service, at 80 cents per pouch
when, a matter of fact, Smith could
make good profit on them at 40 cents
apiece.
Defendants Get Rake Off.
The difference between 80 cents and 90
cents on the contract, it was alleged, went
into the pockets of McGregor and Upton,
while Smith made his profit of 10 cents per
pouch on each one, and paid the remainder,
amounting to some $4,000, back to Upton
and McGregor as a ''rake-off.'
Smith was the only witness examined by
the government yesterday. He testified
that Upton called at his store in 1891 and
IL
what he could manufacture them for, and
he said about 60 cents. He took the pouch
and sent it to the Warren Manufacturing
Company of Massachusetts.
Wrote to Machen.
The Warren company, Smith said in
formed him that they could furnish him
the pouches at 371a cents apiece. When
these quotations came, he said, Upton
wrote him letter, to be sent to Superin-
tendent of Free Delivery A. W. Machen,
quoting the pouches at 90 cents apiece
He said he made a copy of the letter
from the draft Upton had written and sent
it to Machen. With the letter, he said he
sent to Machen one of the sample pouches.
He said he informed Upton that he could
furnish the pouches for 30 cents apiece,
but he said that Upton told him to put in
his bid at 30 cents per pouch, and he did so.
!. Brought McGregor to His Store.
Subsequently Upton brought McGregor
to his store and introduced him, and he
agreed to give them 40 cents on each pouch
furnished to the government, and this had
been paM to them on all the 10000 pouches
which he furnished.
The court adjourned until Wednesday,
when the hearing of the case will be re-
Sumed.

A dispatch from Syracuse last night says:
The Right Rev. Frederick D. Huntington
bishop of the Protestant Episcopal diocese
of central New York, in his Gospel Mes
senger tonight has some pointed things tc
say about the conduct of clergymens wives
and makes the statement that more than
one pastor has been displaced on account
of the worldly actions of his Wife Says
the bishop:
1.-The subject is delicate and should be
delicately handled, but it is not therefore
without Importance to the clergyman, to
his pastoral efficiency, to his influence
whether in the pulpit or out of it.
while the character, temper manners

munity or the parish where her husband
presides and teaches.
Order Well His Household.
HE is apostolically hidden to order well
his household But there are some wives
who, notwithstanding their marriage vow,
will not be ordered. Their husbands did
not know what they were when they chose
them and married them, unless the hus-
bands themselves were wanting in judg-
ment or worse.
THE radical and comprehensive fault or
sin is worldliness of mind Accomplish
ments, energy, tidy housekeeping. general
efficiency will not atone that sin. The
clever woman must be more than that ii
she is to fill honorably the sacred place or
calling that she accepted, for it is sacred
necessarily and not at her option.
mo doubt there are some wives to whom
this guarded habit will be a sacrifice. as
demanding a vigilant seif-denial and ten

where, as they will tell you, the families
and position of the congregation flourish

ca ton or their ambition.
Worldly indedness in Parsonage.
What then? Let that wife learn to find
her satisfactions where her duties are.
Many a woman has done that and her light
has shown and her power has confirmed
and enlarged the power of her pulpit, or
helped to make up for its deficiency. AT
any rate, neither the gospel nor the final
