GIVES TORIES A SHOCK.
Premier BaIfOur Openly Indorses q
Plan to Abandon the British
Free Trade Policy,

London, May 20.-Prcmier Balfour
has surprised the old tories and con.
servatives by coming out openly In
support of Chamberlain's scheme 10,
the practical abandonment OF Eng
lands traditional policy OF free trade
and preferential tariff agreement
with the British colonies.
In notable address in the house
OF commons the premier asserted
that the free trade theory had no,
worked out as its champions predict
ed in 1s46. lie declared that IL Eng
land adhered to the free trade polio,
the time would come when England's
only neutral market would be the
Turkish empire, The empires only
alternative, he said, was reciprocit,
with it's own colonies, and this neces
sarily involved a tax on food anc
raw material.

SAVE THE HARDWOODS.
Thousands OF Axes Kept Constantly
At work Cutting Them Down
Creating Alarm.

Memphis is the largest hardwood
lumber market in the world, and Mem
phis is proud of the fact, because Mem
phis wants to be first and largest in
everything that is good; but Memphis
and the entire hardwood producing
section of the country have cause for
alarm over the rapid and indiscrimi-
nate slaughter Of hardwood trees that
is going on, says the Memphis CONNER
cial-Appeal.
The waste is something startling.
Giant trees are cut down and their
trunks hauled to convenient sawmills
to be cut up into boards or planks or
scantling or beams; or the logs are
loaded on cars and shipped to the far
north and east; or they are RATED on
the streams and foatcd to tidewatcr
and shipped to foreign countries. In
the mere matter of slaves and stave-
getting thousands of axes are kept go
ing constantly and the destruction is
great. Mrch good lumber in the tops
and branches that could be utilized Is
left to rot on the ground. Millions Of
feet of it is being sent abroad annually
that is needed at home or which will
be needed at home.
This should be discouraged rs much
as possible. The south is unbuilt, and
houses and homes of men must be built
IN town and country, on hill and val
ley, in It's cuddled coycs and across the
sweeps of its vast prairies, and much
lumber will be required for this. This
one item alone would strip many thou
sands of acres annually.
Then the question of railroad ties
must be considered. There are in the
south, or soon will be, about 100000
miles of railroad, including side tracks,
switches. double tracks, etc, and ON
these are used about 5000 ties to the
mile. The average life Of tie is about
six years, which means that an aver
age of 5000 miles Of roadhed must re
ceive new ties every year, which will
require I'm all 100000 600 ties, and in
the six years 100000, 900 new ties must
be provided, a sufficient amount to de-
nude forest Of enormous proportions.
This number of railroad crosstics at
so cents each would aggregate the vast
sum Of si5O, 900, 900, which, considered
mere MS one item, is worth looking
after.
Our hardwood forests are expansive,
but not inexhaustible, and we should
protect them. War should first be de-
clared on the arch enemy Of the public,
the man who begins clearing off land
for agricultural purposes by first max
ing "deadnin' by first numbering
hundreds and hundreds OF valuable
trees b, cutting circle around them
70 that the sap cannot rise in the
spring, and leaving them to slowly rot
away and fall piecemeal, as though af.
flicted with leprosy, This wanton de
structor Of property is crime and
punished severely when committed. II
| is less common than formerly, but 1t Is
yet being committed.

"LOOP THE LOOP" NOT NEW.
Diversion Now Popular Mt Pleasure
Resorts Was Introduced
First In 1916.

The, centrifugal pleasure railway
commonly known as looping the
loop" has been looked upon as mod
ern invention until the Scientific
American pointed out the fact that the
"loop" was known as far back as 1916
The Scientific American says:
"Two music halls Of Paris are al
present entertaining their patrons
with exciting journeys on this aston
ishing piece of apparatus. In the eff
fort to Guido his rival, the proprietor
of one of these music halls claimed
that his 'boucler la boucle' is under the
direction of the only true and genuine
inventor. This claim of originality t6
the invention aroused the suspicion OF
one of the staff of the French weekly
ILLUSTRATION. j. F. Gall, in La Nature
has carried out n similar and more ex.
haustive investigation, and proved that
a certain Clavieres was the inventor OF
the centrifugal railway. So popular
did looping the loop become that 9th.
re countries soon adopted the con.
trivance. According to Clavieres's
plan, the track, after al sharp descent
was curved intoa circular loop and Their
extended into an upward incline. The
car, in travelling on the two rails con,
shutting the track, plunged down the
first incline at terrific speed, whirled
around the loop and assembled the sec
ond incline. In those days people were
more fearful than the modern New
Workers. who visit Coney Island, an6
boldly seat themselves in the car, ut,
terly regardless whether or not they
will come out uninjured. In order tc
convince people how safe his railway
was, Clavieres filled the car with monk.
eys It was not until the safety OF
looping the loop was thus conclusive.
ly demonstrated that men and women
were willing to enjoy its doubtful,
pleasures for two sous.
"In describing this fearful and won
derful construction in 1876, lie Journa'
du Havre states: AT II o'clock this
morning the aerial railway was tested
The experiments were made in the
presence of NJ. Dumon, minister of pub
lie works. M. Theirs was present al
the trial.
"Looping the loop soon went out OF
fashion. The public in that day was
just as tickle as 1t is now. About 1865
however, an ambitious Barnum
thought it would be a most excellent
scheme to equip the circus Napoleon
with centrifugal railway. The car.
however, was derailed on the very first
trip, and the project OF police, who wa.
at that time M. Boitelle, forbade fur.
ther narrowing journeys"

washington, May 20.-by tar tho
most sensational development Of the
post Office investigation up to this
time occurred Wednesday when Au-
gustus w. Machen, the general super
intendent OF the free delivery service.
was arrested on warrant issued
upon the information of post Office
inspectors charging him with having
received "rake-offs" from contracts
made with the local Arm Of Croft
Bros. for a patent postal box fas-
tener. The warrant specifically
charges him with receiving $1s,9s1.7s
since August 8. 1000. 1t Is alleged,
however. at the department that this
amount does not represent all that
Machen obtained with his contracts,
it being charged that he has profited
by them for several years prior to
that date Of the first contract men,
toned In the warrant. Other ar
rests are to follow. Immediately
after Mr.. Machen was taken into
custody the postmaster general Is
sued an order removing him from
office. He had been practically under
suspension for q fortnight pending
investigation into his bureau.
Irregularities Disclosed.
The discovery Of Machen's alleged
interests In the contracts was made
quite accidentally by the inspectors
some three weeks ago, and since
then their energies had been directed
toward making out q case. Tues
day night, after the authorities had
become convinced that they were
in possession of the necessary evil
dence, Mr.. Machen was notified TO
appear Mt the department in the
morning. He did so and was sub
jected to sweating" process by
the inspectors and Gen. Bristow for
three hours, but no admissions that
he had profited by the contracts
could be secured from him.
Hearing Set for June 9.
Assistant District Attorney Tag
CART. however, was not ready to pro-
coed with the case and the hearing
was set for June s. Mr.. Machen gave
a $4,000 bond. furnished by Phil
adelphia bonding company, for his
appearance, declining to accept the
proffer of friends to go on his bond.
After his release he declined to make
any statement beyond the single dec
laration that the whole thing was a
grand stand play and would come
out all right.
Gave Himself Up.
Diller B. Croft. one of the partners
in the firm of Croft Bros. who are
accused Of having bribed August W.
Machen for the purpose OF procur
ing purchase by the government OF
their letter boz fasteners. called at
police headquarters Wednesday night
stating that no had heard a warrant
for his arrest was out. He was
served with the warrant and was re.
leased on $4,000 bond.
Samuel A. Croft, the other member
of the Croft firm, was taken into Gus
tody later and was released on receipt
of bail in the sum of $4,000.
