TOMATO CONTRACTS AND CANNED GOODS
c. II. Pearson PackiGg Co. of Baltimore, Own
er Of Smyrna Landing Factory. Explains.


er of Smyrna Landing Factory, Explains.
Last week we published an extract
from the Chestertown Kent NeWs con-
cerning tomato contracts. The G. H.
Pearson Packing Co., of Baltimore,
now in control of the large factory at
Smyrna Landing, have written to the
Kent NetOs the following explanation:
'In justice to all parties concerned
in the growing and packing of tOma-
toes, permit us to correct an error,
innocently made, we feel sure, IN
your editorial of February 14th issue.
You say ir this editorial: Certainly
If the Gamer could contract last year
for S8 per ton, when canned goods
were quoted at 80 cents, they (refer-
ring to the canners) can give as much
now when the market price is SIC.
and 92c" You fail to state, however,
that the 82c price in 1902 was for the
futures" while the SIC. and 92c.
price at present is for "spots."
"The price one year ago for "spot'
3-pound standard tomatoes was S1.2(
to $l.22! per dozen; to-day the price
of the same kind of goods for spot
delivery is Soc. and 90c. The price
on cultures" at this time one yea
ago was SOC. to 824c.; the price tO-da.
is 75c. to 77tc; which you will see /
SC. per dozen less than last year
prices on Futures" and 35c. pc
dozen less on "spOts.
We make this statement, which Wi
be borne out by every Gamer in tn
East, that it Is utterly impossible
get the same prices for future
tomatoes now that we all got for thel
a year ago. The difference is &c.
7Bc. per dozen less this year than last.

THAT RECoNSIGNMENT CHARGE
Becomes Subject of Suit Brought in
Supreme Court of wisconsin by
Attorney General.

JEFFERSON CITY, Mo-, Jan. 3.-Attor-
ney General Crow filed in the supreme
court here today four suits in equity-one
land, the Santa Fe and the Missouri Pa
cific railroads, seeking to restrain them
from enforcing the "reconsignment charge"
on grain delivered by any Of the roads
named for storage in Kansas City or ship
ment out of that city on line other than
these four lines.
The railroads are charged with illegally
making a reconsignment charge of 81 a
car, of rebating and refunding the charge
to persons who ship out of Kansas City or
who ship like amount Of grain or grain
products over any of the four lines, and
lin creating and maintaining at Kansas
City a monopoly and discriminating against
the locality of Kansas City and against
persons, firms and corporations who ship
grain or grain products into Kansas City
over said four railroads but who do not
reship out of Kansas City an amount of
grain or grain products corresponding to
the amout thereof shipped into Kansas City
over some one of said four railroad COM
pany lines"
The filing of the petitions is the first
step in the courts taken for relief against
the order for reconsignment charges made
In July last and fought by the Commercial
club and the Board of Trade of Kansas
City.
similar suit against the Frisco sys-
TEN, In behalf of st. Louis, has also been

IS NOT TO BLAME
King Has Nothing 20 DO with Anglo
German Alliance in
Venezuela,

LONDON, Jan. 8.--The Spectator today
gives much prominence to a lengthy letter
from Sidney Lee, the well known lecturer
and writer and Trask. lecturer at Prince
ton university, denying that the Anglo-Ger-
man cooperation in Venezuela is in any
way due to King Edwards action.
Mr.. Lee throws interesting and authori-
tatiye light on the relations between the
king and his ministers. There is no
ground for the suspicion" writes Mr.. Lee,
that any revolutionary change in the rela-
tions OF the sovereign with the ministers
has taken place during the last two years.
THE coil OF tradition which now en-
circles the premier's office is far too heavy
to permit him to suddenly surrender any
essential part Of his power or influence to
the sovereign.
The sovereign can not more initiate a
policy for the ministers or impose upon
them by the urgency of his appeal a policy
of his own devising than he can by sole au-
thority promulgate a new law. The SOW
ereign solely enjoys tRa right OF criticisins
the ministers propo,s. II a minister
deems these to be OF falue he has 1t In
his power to adopt S
But. in accordf,s with the admitted
custom, he invari~ treats them as not
authoritative sug$ ms and is entitled to
ignore them all Ter without any way
prejudicing his ons with the sovereign,
who Is debarre n Offering formal advice
on any politi iestion."
Mr. Lee hat when the sovereign
even EXPIRE Informally his views they
must take ntative interrogatory form,
which barely raises them above the level
Of any irresponsible suggestion"
No trace Of subservience has been suffered
to survive the ministry's manner Of corre-
spondence with the crown. Custom prohib-
its a minister from allowing his final de-
cision to be controlled, effectively, by royal
wishes or hopes.
The minister has only to meet a royal
suggestion which fails TO commend Itself
to him with directive negative, except
in the rarest case, to extinguish It sum
marily.

SANTIAGO SHOOTS OUT FIRE
Volcano uIuminates Coast of Mica

CORINTO, Nicaragua, Dec. 15.-(Via San
Francisco. Jan. 3.)-The volcano Of San
tiago, about eight miles from Granada, is
shooting out fire and at night illuminates
the heavens for many miles around.
Monotumbo. near the sea coast, cannot
be seen for the smoke. Alsaco, in Saliva
dor, shoots forth smoke and lava every half
hour and at night forms a brilliant specta-
Gle, as its molten lava runs down the
mountain side in a stream OF fire.
The inhabitants OF Guatemala City fear
that the volcano at Atilan will break out
at any time.
. The seacoast and ocean for many miles
is strewn with pumice stone from the
volcano Santa Maria.
