organized so we'll prepared and equipped to consider this question as will be the general staffy On it will be a picked representative of each arm of the service, with probably two or three extra men from the ordnance and engi- neer departments. They will revise the general scheme for the defense Of the various cities, adding new batteries to the harbors which have grown in inl- portance since 1887, and modifying the plans for ports which have dropped into the background.
 In this connection the general staff will be required to suggest a new scheme for the defense of New York harbor, following the completion of Anl- prose channel, which will take ships considerably out of the range of the batteries at Sandy Hook, which now form the chief protection for New York.
 The following questions which Secre- tary Root framed, are sample of the kind of problems the general staff will have to consider ino rder to get an idea of war: What quantities of arms am- intuition, equipments, transportation, anu SiSlldl COIpS supplies and appliances and all other supplies and appliances of every kind and description would be requisite to fit out an army and make it ready for the most effective service, assuming, first, an army of one hundred and fifty thou sand; second, an army of two hundred and fifty thousand, the question being answered in each case both with refer ence to campaign in a cold, northerly climate, and with reference to cam paign in hot climate? What is our present supply of each article or class of articles reported as necessary for such an emergency? What is our pres ent capacity for the production of such articles? What are the domestic sources of supply to which we could look in an emergency for the material with which to increase, either by pur- chase of manufacture, our war material of all kinds, and what is the productive capacity of the establishments from which such material could be procured? What are the present storage facilities of each of the supply departments and what relation do they bear to the re- quirements for the storage of the full stock of supplies in that department which you shall report to be requisite under the foregoing directions? Are the present places provided for storage properly located with reference to strategical requirements of possible hostilities? What, if any, of the pres ent places of storage should be en- larged? What, ifany, should be aban doned? What new places, if any, should be established?
 These questions were drafted by Sec retary Root to give congress an idea of the way the spare moments of the gen. eral staff would be oecupied.-Wash- ington Correspondence of the Brooklyn Eagle.

mately to render wampum too common to maintain it's value.
 Another cause for the decline of wampun was the decrease of trade with the Indians.
 Still another reason for the degrada- tion of wampun was the widespread practice of counterfeiting.
 The employment of wampun died out slowly. Connecticut made grant of fifty fathoms of Wompom" in 1866. Rhode Island recognized itofficially as late as 1870. In New York it was used until after the end of the century--as for instance in the payment of ferriage between New York city and Brooklyn. It was used in southern Connecticut as late as 1704, and in the backwoods re- gions of the northern anr middle colo nies well down into the eighteenth cen tury.

Harry B. Winters Meets With Painful
 Accident.
 Harry B. Winters of No. 16t Lombard street, a motorman on the Fair Haven and Westville road, was struck by a trolley ear in front of the Grand ave- nue car barns of that company yester- day morning and sustained a concus- sion of the brain and other injuries. Winters was standing between the tracks near the door of the barn. The car which leaves at 5:06 am. was start ed out, and the overhang of the car, as it turned the curve at the door, struck Winters and hurled him violently against the door. For a moment he was pinioned between the car and door. When extricated he was unconscious. The police ambulance was summoned

means of exchange that hereafter the thrifty Plymouth yeomen lost no oppor- tunity to increase their stock of it. To the English settler strings and belts of beads possessed no intrinsic value. They were altogether lacking in that symbolism which rendered them pre- cious to the Indian wholly aside from their monetary value.
 But as long as the Englishman could exchange them in the inland regions for furs which met ready market in Eu- rope, he was just as willing to employ this medium as any other. During the earlier part of the seventeenth century the supply of beaver never equalled the demand; and as one writer has put 1t, wampum was the magnet which drew the beaver out of the interior forests the talisman which kept up the equili- brium of trade between two peoples who otherwise had really very little in common.
 The eolonists never came to regard wampum as anything more than a con- venience for the prosecution of trade with the Indians. Nevertheless they were forced sometimes to use it in their dealings with each other and even in the payment of their taxes. But when so employed it was not regarded as any form of money. but, as the Rhode Island Colonial records for 1862 say:
 "It is but commodity. and 1t is un- reasonable that it should be forced upon any man."
 The large measure in which the colo nists found themselves under the neces sity of using it as money, though still protesting that it was not money. gives conclusive evidence of the utter impos- sibility of people of any advancement to live by mere barter. Even the Indi- ans had passed that stage. Barter be- ing inadequate. and coin being almost unknown, the colonistS inevitably drew into use among themselves the medium of exchange which they had originally regarded as fit only with which to win beaver and food from the natives.
 The use of wampum in the northern colonies was at it's height about 1640. At that time despite the suspicious and the reluctance of acceptance of many. it was by far the nearest approach to universal currency that the colonists had. It could be exchanged for mer- chandise. used in the payment of labor and court judgments. and given to the state in the discharge of taxes. Be- quests were made in terms of it. An old English shilling found in a roadway at Flushing. Long Island, in 1647, was regarded locally as a great curiosity Many of the younger generation had never seen such a coin.
 There were many circumstances which conspired to depreciate wampum and eventually strip it of it's character as currency First may be mentioned the very familiar process known to stu dents of finance as imitation. The quan- tity in circulation had increased so much by reason of the trade in beaver that when, about the middle of the cen- tury, the demand for the latter in Flu rope diminished, there was no other to take its place in keeping the wampum aioat. Moreover, the thrifty Dutch at Hackensack and Albany introduced lathes in the manufacture of the beads, so that much greater quantities of it could be produced. Thee effects of this were, of course, to bring great profits temporarily to the Dutchmen, but ulti"

THE HAGUE CONFERENCE

The first successful conference o.
The Hague Tribunal has just ended
and the matter in discussion the Vene'
zuelan arbitration. The question sub
mitted to the tribunal was whether
Great Britain. Germany or Italy are
entitled by reason of war which they
instituted against Venezuela to have
their claims against that country paid
before she pays other creditors. The
case has just been submitted and the
decision will be forthcoming in Febru-
airy.
To President Roosevelt must be given
the credit Of securing recognition and
respect for The Hague tribunal. The
arbitration was at first offered him and
his was the suggestion that the ques-
ton be referred to The Hague tribunal
This is the precedent and it gains for
the, tribunal service of permanent
value which Ia the end will give that
body the recognition and respect that

Wright in recent address are worth
considering: 1.-THE decalogue is a good
labor platform as any" Mr.. wHgh,

man. We are to have a new law of
wages, grown out of religious thought
The old struggle was for existence;
the new struggle is for a wider spirit

Admirably said, and the truth thus
set forth was never more essential to
the establishment of righteous and en-
during relations between employer and
employed than it is now. Arbitra ton
compulsory or voluntary the trade
agreement, progressive legislation, and
the different stages of socialism are
only empirical remedies at best. We
may go even farther than Mr.. Wright
and assert that the new law of service,

others as YOU would have others do
unto you.
The cynics will say that before the
Golden Rule can really prevail as
universal guide to conduct we must
eliminate human selfishness. Is this
a reasonable view of the matter? If
men are bound to be selfish. let them
interpret the Golden Rule as meaning
that II is best for self to leal justly

RESTRICTION OF ALIEN IMMi-
GRAFTON

England is about to follow Ameri-
cas- precedent In laws restricting alien
immigration. A royal commission APP
pointed year ago has given evidence
of an immense yearly unchecked influx
of paupers. criminals and weaklings
of all nationaIities who were steadily
ousting the English from employment
and increasing crime in every district
of London. The government bill will
largely follow American lines, impose
an educational and money test with a
summary exclusion of convicted Grim
inals. -
America has fof many years been the
dumping ground for class undesr-
able aliens and 1t is only of late years
that the restrictions cited have been in
force and no doubt the enforcement of
the American laws has turned many
to England who would otherwise have
come here.
The American immigration laws
though improved by recent legislation
are not yet equal to the safe guard
ing of the nation and will no doubt be
again revised.
Many of the ills suffered today in
our era of Industrial discomfort can be
traced directly to the alien element so
largely predominating in certain lines
of industrial life The best of our alien
immigrants of the laboring class are
hardly in sympathy with our institu-
tons or really appreciative of their
privileges short ce q generation and
the worst of them are trouble breeders

The secretary of the treasury's re-
port emphasizes the fact that the
farmer was never so prosperous as
now. The census of 1900 showed that
the value of American farms and farm
property had increased more rapidly
during the decade than the capital
invested in railroads and manufac-
lures. phenomenal as was the growth
in these directions. And the value of
farms and farm properties is greater
than the aggregate value of railroads
and manufacturing establishments
The American farmer Is now the chief
American capitalist.
