ers wished to destroy the union, and
hack of the employers were the great
corporations of the United States and
all the railroads. That is what is
meant by these illegal and outrageous
mjunctions issued by tools of the
railroad companies, issued by judges
who are as much the servants of the
railroads as their section men.
''When the union is destroyed it
will mean the end of labor's hopes.
Labor unions are not perfect insti-
tutions. They are simply means
to an end. In some respects labor
unions are narrow, exclusive and mo-
nopolistic. They are not ideal. In
an ideal state there will be no la
Tor union, there will be no boycotts,
no strikes, no wage-carners and no
wage-payers. There will be general
partnership. Capital cannot combine
and operate together and ask labor
to operate separately. To ask the
labor union to dissolve is to ask one
army to lay down its asms in the face
of another army"
Mr.. barrow devoted the greater
part of his address to the subject of
violence during the coal strike, and
throughout his remarks he excori-
ated President Baer and the opera
tors.
The speaker said only 20 cases had
been proved where dynamite had
been used, and that in no case did
the strikers or their sympathizers
intend to kill anyone. "They simply
wanted to scare nonunion men by
exploding dynamite in front of. the
doors of these men," explained the
miners counsel.
Mr.. barrow said the miners or their
sympathizers killed only. three men
while the coal and iron police and
soldiers killed three or four. "None
of the homicides committed by
miners or their sympathizers were
deliberate MURDERS" said Mr.. Oar
row. 1.-THE operators tried to create
the impression that the minework-
ers had committed 81 cold-blooded
murders and they so told President
Roosevelt, but he could not discover
more than three cases."
Mr.. barrow said that the Lord by
some oversight had planted all the
anthracite coal in the country in a
patch of territory 100 miles broad
s.and then Baer came along and
took IT,"

soldier of the empire and won his rank
by long and heroic service which be-
gan 50 years ago. The countess, who

The countess has not visited the land

At one time she was considered one Of

It will thus be seen that the United States trade with Cuba has nearly regained it's antebellum proportions. but that there has been a somewhat disquieting decrease in our exports to Cuba during the past year.
 Other interesting and valuable fea- lures of the monograph relate to the extent and nature of the United States capital now invested in Cuban enter prizes; the position of Cuban sugar with relation to the worlds market: details of Cuban tobacco culture and manufa cture: the laws of Cuban rail- ways. patents, and copyrights; the livestock industry; the mining conces- sionS and analysis of ores: highway improvements: labor conditions in the island; Cuban finances; the competi- ton of the American and European manufactures in the Cuban market, etc.
 The worl, includes Consul General Steinharts recent official report from Havana and two supplemental reports from the same place.
 A very valuable feature feature is the publica ton entire of the present Cuban tariff, with all it's notifications and rulings down to September 1, 1903, which will be great convenience to the American business community, as the notifications and decisions have been very numerous, and they have not until now been accessible in connected and cOmDlete form

Then came the sermon which Nil. Walker says was masterpiece. He said 1T he had known what it was go- Ing to be the church would not have held half the audience he did not be ileNe it would have held any part of it.
 NO messenger of the skies ever before had such an opportunity to combat iniquity. When the sin is scattered through large audience the words of the preacher must necessarily be scattered, some of it falling upon good ground and some of it on unpro- ductive soil. But here it was cOncen- trated in one man.
 Here was a chance for what MT. Walker in his daily life would call a pct shct. an unsportsmanlike perfor nance but Bishop kendrick made it because there was nobody present to sec it. just as Mir. Walker had done thousand times before.
 Precisely what the bishop said is not known. He has said when asked about the sermon, that he must refrain from opening old wounds. Mir. Walker when approached on the same subject said he must refrain from having them opened.

A RELIGIOUS ncNOPOLIST How !. Elliot Walker Drank in a Whole Sermon by Himself.

]. Elliott Walker is d syndicate. d trust and monopolist of divine services. A good story. and true, has leaked out on him. A week ago Bishop J. M. Kendrick of this diocese occupied the pulpit of the Episcopal church. There was Q morning service and the bishop announced that there would be q meat- ing in the afternoon. There was only one man of the whole congregation who remembered the announcement. The fishing season having expired and the statutory quail season not having opened. MT. Walker had nothing to occupy his mind but religious matters and the balance in the county treasury.
 He was therefore present in person single handed, solitary and alone. The bishop appeared clad in his clerical robes and when Mir. Walker looked around and observed his exposed and insulated position he suggested a post ponemcnt of the service. The bishop replied that he had never in the course of his pastoral career postponed ser vice for the want of an audience: he would not do so now. lie proceeded with the service and MT. Walker pro-

 One of tho most important features of the monograph relates to the recent tariffs of Cuba " tn relation to their effects upon the C Iban trade and com mercc. A compa, ison is made of the tariff rates on :eVeral leading articles of commerce in the last four tariffs, namely. the old Spanish tariff in force previous to 1S90 the reciprocity tariff of 1891 the Spanish tariff of 1897. and the present ta'-iff framed under United States auspices in 1900. A tabular list of the exports of these articles from this country to Cuba under each of these tariffs is also given; and thus it becomes easy to at least approxi- mate the practical effects of the vari- ous tariff rates upon cur trade with Cuba.
 The different reciprocity agreements and propositions of the past, with their practical results, are nara ted, and a history is given of the reciprocity ne gotiations and debates of 1902. with the full text of the bill or that year and also of the pending Cuban reciprocity convention.
 Full taties and other details oi Gu ban oreign commerce are presented. including particulars regarding immi- grafton. revenues and expenditures, customs receipts. tonnage. steamship lines of communication, etc. It ap- pears that the volume of Cuban for eign commerce. which naturally Suf- fercd a serious diminution during the recent war, has lately experienced an encouraging increase, and promises soon to outstrip the record of it's palm jest days before the war During the insurrection TO official returns were

For exam pie, Cuba's most important export su- gar.- which amounted to over 950'000 tons in 1894. and will amount to over 100000 tons in the present year, was only about 200. eco tons in 1898; and likewise the Cuban export of tobacco to the United States. which will equal $13, ,0O0,O0 in value in 1898, amounted to only about S4,G00.000 in 1887 and 1898.

UPTON IN MEAT COMBINE.
Rurors in Chicago Say That Sir Thomas Will Join Other Packers.

Chicago, Oct. IA report current in the Unicn Stock Yards yesterday was to the effect that the Lipton com- pany has joined the packers combina- ton. The rumor is founded on the fact that the l4ipton House has not bought any hogs fol the last four days. which is taken as an indication that the house is completing an inventory preparatory to an utilization with the combine.
 It is generally thought that the re- cent visit of Sir Thomas Lipton re- suited in this action as it is popularly believed that the heads of the combina- tion have been desirous of securing the Lipton plant for a long time and have made many flattering offers to Sir Thomas. Should the report prove true there will be only one independent packing house in the yards.
