coal.

The rebate of the duty on coal, au-
thorized by congress during the coal
strike last winter, went into operation
on january A. 1908, so that the figures
for the FIRST nine months Of the present
year represent the importation. Of coal
free of duty during practically all of
that period, compared with the corre-
spending period Of the preceding year,
In which the importations of bitumi-
nous coal were dutiable, It appears
| that the importations of coal into the
United States during the first nine
months of the present calendar year
have amounted to 1851, 900 tons, against
1546,112 tons in the corresponding
months of the preceding year, an in
crease of 1,140,0O0 tons, These figures
include both bitumineus and anthracite
coal, but as the total imports Of an
thracite in the nine months of 1903
amounted to but 137,24S tons the chief
interest Is in biturninous. This increase
Of 1,14O,09o tons is chiefly in coal from
the United Kingdom, from which the
imports of bituminous coal during the
nine months ending with September,
1908, amounted to 1105,eD0 tens against
$4,000 in the corresponding months of
1902. From Canada the total imports
of bituminous coal for the nine months
in question were 1,225,294 tons, against
1876, 500 tons in the corresponding nine
months of last year. From other coun-
tries the imports are, of course, ex-.
trenely small, the largest item, aside
FROM the United Kingdom and Canada,
being Japan, from which $4,000 tons
We're imported In the last nine months,
against 5000 tons in the corresponding
months of 1902; Thus nearly all Of the
increase in the importations Of coal IN
the present year under the rebate of
duty authorized in January has been
from the United Kingdom.
MEANWHILE the exportation Of coal has
increased mere than the importation.
The total coal exported from the United
States in the nine months ending with
September amounted to 6,914,1S9 tons,
against 4,720,sSo tons tons; in the correspond
ing months Of last year, an increase IF
1893, $3.50 tons.

THE NEW YORK ELECTION.

There will be hot time in New York
to-day and also tonight. Both the
Fusion and the Tammany shouters are
shouting victory, and Big Bill Devery is
also shouting it. AS all three wont
have it somebody is evidently shouting
wrong. The truth seems to he that I'M
less there is a big surprise coming the
election will be close. Tammany is
making the biggest bluff. 1t is claim
ing anywhere from $4,000 to 100000 plu-
ralfty for Mcclellan, while the Fusion
leaders are claiming only $4,000 plural
ity for Low. IT Is expected that there
/ will be great attempt made to poll
fraudulent votes, There will also be q
great attempt to defeat such voting.
Thirty thousand complaints have al
ready been investigated. Mr.. Morgan,
State Superintendent of Elections,
says: "A man has the right to vote if
he swears to that right and his qualiti-
cation, but If we have reason to suspect
him, or if we have evidence that he has
voted illegally, we shall arrest him i'm
raediately after he has voted. I have
all the Illegally registered nailed.
There will be plenty Of fraudulent votes
cast, I guess, but if the deputies and
police do their duty none of the guilty
will escape, The police and my forces
are workiHg harmoniously and in thor
eugh cooperation UP to the present
time"
If Tammany wins those who believe
that free government is not a failure
will get rude shock. If Low wins the
whole country will be encouraged.

1000 in 1902. The ninety-eight post
canteens at which light wines and beer
alone We're sold have been replaced with
in one mile from military posts by a41
additional saloons in the United States
and S7t in the Philippine Islands, dis
pensing all kinds Of intoxicants, in
many cases with gambling rooms and
in some cases with houses of ill-fame
attached. It is a. matter of evidence
that assertions, absences without leave
and trials of summary or other courts
martial for drunkenness and for Of
fences caused by the same have in
creased and that savings deposits by
the enlisted men have decreased from
an average of $49.49 per man in 1900 to
an average of sS1.54 per man in 1893
The records of the Paymaster Gener-
ais office also show that the fines and
forfeitures imposed upon and collected
from the enlisted men of the army
have increased from an average of $1.ss
per man in 1898 to Se,S2 per man in 1902,
which indicates a growing spirit of dis
content and a decided tendency to de-
generacy which must seriously affect
the discipline and morale of the army.
And so forth and 50 on. The Assoc
citation believes that the sale of beer in
canteens. under rational and eompre-
hensive regulations, rather than its
total prohibition, will subserye the best
interests of scientific temperance, be-
cause, 50 long as human nature is
weak and the masses are not properly
educated, the substitution Of lesser
evil under military centred appears no.
only justifiable, but will in the. future,
as it has in the past prevent excuses
which are fatal to the soldier. soul and
body.

was restored TO power after the wis
ana economical administration OF Mayo
Strong, 1t was too greedy to profit b
the lesson it should have learned fro:
the exposures of the Lexow committee
and Mr.. Van Wyck's seat was haral,
warm under him before the police were
at their old practices. The record of the
department under Murphy, York and
sexton was truly a stencil in our nos
Eflls. The policeman who tried to close
fne poolroom of Frank Farrell and Sen
ator Tim Sullivan was pounded"
Time and time again Devery was in
alcted, but Tammany was then above
me law. And it was under Tammany
mat the cadet system came into being
a cadet is creature wearing the like
ness of man, who makes a business
OF ruin and profits by prefligaey. Hell
rejects him. but Tammany endures him,
SO long as he pays his tribute and pays
rent to a Tammany landlord.
1t was useless to complain of the
Wideopenness of the town, and to prove
the corruption Of individual pnlieemen.
The police commission stood as a wall
against investigation and punishment.
When clergymen went to the authorities
to protest against conditions of injus-
tice and infamy they We're baffied and
insulted. When the Chamber of Com
merce spoke for the manhood of New
York and demanded that Mr.. Van
Wyck do his duty, it was regarded by
that worthy with silent indifference.
At last the leather-witted Croker him
self was compelled to recognize that
Tanmany was going too far, and he or
dered something to be done, to s'pander
to the moral sentiment" This order
begot committee of five and was not
allowed to discover anything, but a
committee of fifteen, chosen by the
Chamber of Commerce discovered plen-
ty. When raiding began In earnest It
was discovered that telephone connec-
tons existed between the police stations
and the gaming houses, and the law
breakers were clipped Off" in advance.
Policemen themselves had to be arrest
ed for oppression and extortion. The
facts We're too glaringly public for even
Devery to stand for them.
The cases of Bissert, Diamond, Glen
non, Dwyer, Shields, Holahan, Done-
hue, McManus, O'Brien and others are
too recent for review but they disclose
a state of absolute rottenness under
the best chief of police New York ever
had Civil service papers were paid
