Free Traders at Work.

At dinner given in New York on
Dec 10 by the tariff committee of the
Reform club the following resolution
was adopted: "Resolved, That it is the
sense of this meeting that at some time
during the ensuing year the tariff COM
mittee of the Reform club arrange for
a tariff conference in this city and that
representatives of free trade men from
various parts of the Union be invited
to attend such conference" Josiah
Quincy, formerly mayor of Boston,
said, "The trust question and the tariff
question are inseparably connected, and
the prominence which President Roose-
welt has helped to give to the former
must lead the country to deal with the
latter" Henry w. Lamb said that 'as
Il matter of practical reform policy we
are undoubtedly right in adopting some
of the gradual steps proposed, even
while confident that wider and better
measures might be taken. These pro
posals include reciprocity, free materi-
ais, no protection for trusts. Only the
last affords a promise of popular sup

IRON CROP OF 1902.
In Thirty-twO Years Our Production
Has Grown to 15,S7S,364 Tons.

In Thirty-twO Years Our Production
Has Grown to 15,S7S,354 Tons.
Our production of pig iron in 1902
was 1881. .307 tons of 2,240 pounds
each. 1t was 1,942,953 tons more than
in 1901, or an increase of nearly one
eighth. Mr.. Swank says with pardona-
ble pride that in 1901 we made more
iron than Great Britain and Germany
combined, and in 1902 we made more
than these two countries with the
make of Belgium added. In 1901 Bel
gium produced 765, 400 tons of pig iron.
Looking back to 1870, when England
was making more than half the worlds
supply of pig iron and just as knowl-
edge of our development under the
Morrill, tariff convinced Bismarck that
protection was as advantageous for
Germany as for us, we find the produc-

Cotton Letter.

New York. June 24.--It seems pecu-
liar thing for a commission house TO re-
fuse business when there is a commission
at the other end, but notwithstanding the
fact that we are as anxious to make
money as anyone in the business, we are
frank to say that we would rather not
trade for anyone in this market We refer
mainly to new buying and selling with
cut any very definite idea of just what
to do next. Scalping operations with
such fluctuations as we are having are
very dangerous There seems to be very
little doubt now that our friends in New
Orleans intend to control the situation
until new cotton begins to come in, or as
long as they are able. This makes very
disagrecable market to trade in. Take
yesterday for instance. After the bureau
report the new crops broke sharply, simply
slid off without any chance to sell. Then
July and August were marked up by the
clique and December and January ran up
Is or 20 points This morning they re-
peated the operation after an early de-
cline, running back to 10 cents. Now.
there is not very much to buy the new
crop months on at the moment. at this
price And yet, anyone can see the dan
