NEW YORK, Jan. 29--AmaIgamated
Copper was again the feature Of the
stock market in the early dealings this
morning. On large transactions the
stock made a further substantial gain
but its tendencies were no more def
nitely accounted for through any novel
developments than they were yesterday
The general market was dull, but firm
in practically every quarter.
IN the railway list, the Erie issues
were most active and We're strong on
the fine statement made by the company
for the month of December, the figures
showing an increase in net earnings Of
nearly 100 per cent in comparison with
the corresponding period of last year.
Other firm features were ST Paul.

GERMAN SOCIALISTS
MORE INFLUENTIAL
Conservative Opinion Predicts Serious
Times for kaserIand.

BERLIN, June 26.-The result of the
elections leaves the reichstag practically
unchanged. SO far as the questions of the
army. navy and commercial treaties are
concerned, though the Socialists, encour-
popular vote. will probably offer stronger
opposition to naval and military meas
ures than ever. The party has the moral
advantage of increasing it's reichstag
deputation by tWenty-three according to
their claims by tWenty-five), while no
other important party can extract COM
fort from the returns.
The Clericals lost half a dozen seats,
partly to the Socialists and partly to the
Radicals and Polish Nationalist.
According to the Lokal AnziegeF, the
complete returns, except in the case of
two reballotings for tomorrow, show the
following changes, compared with the old
reichStag:
The Socialists gain % seats. the Con-
serVatives 1, while the National Liberals
lose l seat. French Conservatives 1, Cler-
icals s, Richter Radicals T. Barth Rad
icals 6, South German Radicals and Anti
Semttes 3, Agrarian League 4 and Asa
The only important change in the polit-
icalas character of Germany through the
selections is the great strengthening of
the influence of Socialism. Cities like
Liepsic. Mayence, Dortmund, Stettin and
Frankfort on the Oder have fallen for the
first, time into the hands of the Socialists
Their leaders attribute the gain principals
Iy to the tariff issue and say they made
the campaign chiefly thereon The cleo
ton returns confirm their claims that
Socialism is spreading rapidly among the
agricultural 1aborers- and small farmers

WHEN BOSTON IS DRUNK.

The municipality of Boston has just put in practice
a police ruling. Hitherto the city of brains and
beans has been disposed consider her citizens intox
lcated only when she has them stretched at full
length in the gutter. When dignifed Boston gentle
man observed claspng with passionate fervor a
friendly lamp post inserting with elaborate serious
latch key in the lock Of mail box she was dis
posed to turn her head ndulgently But it has finally
dawned her that such sights hardly compatible
with the Boston standard of department so she has pro-
mulgated the new ruling
Hereafter if mans breath is such as to force upon
the Boston policeman the suspicion he has partaken
OF the cup that nebriates while cheers or if his foot
steps indicate curved rather than straight line then
that policeman will feel justified in escorting the bbuous
citizen to the station and the Judge will feel usti
fed next morning in pronouncirg sentence of $40 or
days
In making the gait and the BREATH or, as somebody
has Bostony put it, in making serpentine ambu1a
ton and alcoholic exhaemen the proof of an excessive
alcoholic package the club of the universe" has given
but another proof of her insuarty Her citizens NAV
submit to this blue law but how about the visitorP
There towns in the West which never pronounce
their citizens intoxicated until they lie full length on the
floor with handles to the floor Are those citizens our
neyng Bosonward apt submit to the breath and oa;t
test! VIII they receive in the spirit in which if is
rendered the package of cloves that now accon,o.pe
every drink in Boston?
For what is considered kindness and cour-
the West where every prides himself on being able
to Judge of the extent of his "jag" And Western
erS are quick to resent insults Boston has decided
to be merely drunk is oense 1t is not Improbable
however, that she will find that only visitors but
even many OF her own citizens will arrange it that by
the time they reach the station the policeman will be
quite justified in adding disorderly" to the charge

THE MUSIC OF THE BANDS.

President Roosevelt will arrive at Oyster Bay his
summer home, today in quest of peace and quiet but
there is little prospect that he will find either He leaves
behind him the residents of Washington discussing ex-
cedy the revelations of the postal scandal nvestga
ton lie Will find Oyster Bay convulsed over a feud
that IS dividing its prominent citizens Two rival
committees of Oyster Bay citizens claim the honor Of
welcoming Teddy. These committees have each hired
the services of brass band One committee has in
structed the band to play HAIL the Conquering Hero
Comes the minute it catches glimpse of the chief ex-
ecutve The other committee has instructed its band
to play at the psychological moment "The Star
opanged Banner TO imagine the result it is not nee
essary that one should be musician
The committees argue-and rightly too perbaps-
that did they order their respective bands to plav the
same tune It would look if compromise had been
effected where compromise exists "HaiI Columbia,
might biggest to the president some idea of the true
state OF affairs, but 1t that this particular tune has
not occurred to those who fighting over who shall
have the privilege of welcoming Teddy Of course the
president has the right to refuse listen to the music
OF the bands but having travelled all over the West with
out mourning the enty of anybody except Carrie Ma
t1on is not probable that he will care to offend his
ne1ghborS, who also voters.
Even those VINO do not agree with the Rough Riders
foreign policy, will be disposed sympathize with him
III this domestic complication Especially will he have
the heartfelt sympathy of those who have heard the
rival BRASS bands of town playing different tunes at the
same time It is said that Teddy has not cultivated ear
tor music and may be that he will mistake the music
for Wagner Or it may be that somebody has given
him an mixing of the true of affairs and that he in
tends to mistake the rival tunes for Wagner ANYWAY
But another thought suggests itself By Offering so
deadly an aront to the memory of King Leopolds pro-
tege the president stands in danger of offending the
German vote.
It's awkward whichever way one looks at it and it
seems too bad that the president should have to face
such racket when he is looking for peace and quiet

musical dscord rather than party dscord he has had
to face the latter and has upset his nerves SO that he

THE INGENIOUS MR.. STEVENS.

Congressman Stevens is the first representative of his
party discover that the postoce frauds are chargeabe
to the Democratic organization If Mr. Stevens dfd not
take life so very seriously one might think he joking
but he never jokes-at least where politics IS con-
cerned.
Mr.. Stevens declares in the columns of the local
Republican organ that A. w. Machen, the supern-
tendent of the free delivery service who charged with
frauds appointed during Cevelands last admins
traton and that the irregularities which he stands
cused date back 1884 Mr.. Stevens does add that
Machen has for years been Republican and fairly
tive worker devong what time he could spare from his
mission of working the government to working for his
party.
If Mr. Stevens is correctly quoted he has displayed
tenlerity than he is in the habit of exhibiting in
making this puerile attempt fix the responsibility for
the rotenneSs in the pOStohce department party
that has had voice in the administration of the gov
for than six years To say that Machen
given his place by administration that went out
of existence years ago does all the present
the preceding administration for the cupablity which
alone could permit of the existing state of affairs.
Corruption and inefhciency have gone hand in hand
IN reducing the departments Washington the state
of nesting places for thieves of every degree If the
chiefs of the deparments-and the postoice is the
only rotten spot in WashngtOn-have remained in ig-
of the conditions they maintained they quite
guilty though they privy to the corruption,
II the distinguished politicians who have had cabinet
places for the past ready to plead imbe
clity for their indifference the grating
methods of their subordinates they will get very little
public sympathy.
Charging Machen up to the last Cleveland admins
traton will not relieve the Republican party from the
responsibility has assumed for the proper and honest
conduct Of the government 1t may be admitted that
party be held responsible for all the of its off
holders but also be admitted that when corrup
ton becomes widespread obviously in the post
Office that responsibility is fixed upon the political
ganzaton which permits it.
It makes difference under what circumstances or
by whom -Iachen appointed He has been good
enough Republican to-ho1d his job through two Repub-
can administrations-and that is pretty good of
the quality of ones party standing. Mr. Stevens had
better not try to help his party by explaining 1t is
easy for thief prove his innocence when he is caught
with the goods him.
