COST OF LIVING.
Has Increased 1876 Per Cent. Since
1896, While Advance in Wages
Has Been 1876 Per Cent.

Washington, Aug. 2.-Mr. Carroll D.
Wright, commissioner of the labor
bureau, in the eighteenth annual re-
port of the bureau, gives the results
of comprehensive inquiry into the
cost of living since 1896 and into the
average wage rate during those
periods. The showing SO far as con-
Germs wages has been made public
heretofore, as investigation of 519
occupations representing 81 industries
In 3,429 separate establishments hav-
ing shown an average increase in
wages during this period of 1876 per
cent The inquiry into the cost of liv-
ing shows that living for working
mems families having under $1,000 in
come per year had increased during
this period 1876 per cent. In order to
ascertain this average increase the
labor bureau secured the income and
expenditure in detail of 2,567 families
in 80 states, retail prices being taken.
The statement shows that the 1857
families consisted of an average of
531 persons and that the average in
come for the year 1901 was 1927, the
average annual expenditure for all
purposes $76S and the average expendi-
ture for food 1926 per family. The
principal items of expenditure were:
Food, 42.54 per cent. of the total ex-
penditure; rent, 1895 per cent; cloth
ing, 14.O4 per cent; and taxes, insur-
ance, organization dues, religion, char
tty, books and newspapers, amuse-
ments. sickness and death, and intoxi-
eating liquors, 14.51 per cent. Each
family consumed 349 pounds of fresh
beef during the year Of a cost of $50.
The lowest average price of food from
1890 to 1908 was in 1896, when it was
95 per cent. of the average price from
1890 to 1899. The highest price was in
1902, when it was 100 per cent. of the
average price for the period. The
average cost of food per family in
1890 was $31S; in 1896, $296; in 1902,
$344, and in 1903, $342.

TURKISH RUGS MlSNOMER.
Those Sold in This Country as Such
Come from England and
French Makers,

There is really no such thing as
Turkish rug, despite the name," said
large importer of oriental wares, reports
the Chicago Inter Ocean. "They are
called Turkish because they are mar
keted principally from Constantinople,
although almost every one of them is
woven in realms outside those of the
sultan. They come from Arabia, Persia,
Afghanistan and Beloochistan, and are
picked up by Mohammedan traders, who
get them from the natives for sacred i'm
ages and pictures of images. OF course,
the Mohammedan faithful think that
these are made by their own countrymen,
but as matter of fact they are manu-
featured largely in England and France
and are shipped to the orient from there.
1t would be certain death for an infidel
Christian to engage in such a trade, and
even the Mohammedan trader frequent
ly pays for it with his life.
"After they have been bought from
the natives by these traders they are
packed on camels, and then begins the
journey overland to Constantinople.

safety sake, and I have often seen as
many as 1870 camels in one caravan when
they arrived at Constantinople. Each
camel can only carry about 200 pounds
of rugs, and it often takes caravan six
months to reach Constantinople, SO the
expense of transportation is heavy one.
Then they are shipped from Constants
nople to America, and it takes about 20
days to reach New York.
"They have to pay import duty to the
sultan when they cross the frontier, and
then when they are exported they have
to pay another two per cent. If we want
to inspect them before we ship them out
Of the country we have to pay 20 per cent,
so we ship them just as they come off the
camels' backs, in bales. Sometimes
when they arrive in this country we find
in shipment rug whose sacred en-
blems make it more valuable in Constan-
tinople than in America, for the rich Mo-
hammedans in that city are willing to
pay almost any price for prayer rug
that has certain of these sacred emblems
in its design. When we find such rug
we ship it back to Turkey and sell it
there, and make bigger profit than We
would in America"

FEW FILIPINO WORDS USED.
Americans Have Gained But Little in
Language from the East
ern Isles.

A letter making inquiry of Col. Ed
wards, chief of the bureau of insular
affairs, war department, as to words
grated into the English language on
account of the American occupation
of the Philippines was turned over to
Capt. Taylor, who is an excellent Span
ish scholar and is getting up the his
tory of the Philippines from the pub
lie documents captured from the Fill
pinos. He made a reply which indi-
Gated that not so many words come
over from the Philippines, although
thousands of United States soldiers
have spent years in the islands. Prob
ably the Tagalog language and the Ian
guage of the different tribes do not
impress the Americans who go to the
Philippines.
Spanish is the chief language of the
Philippines and by the acquisition of
Florida, New Mexico, Texas and Cali
fornia the United States acquired about
all of the Spanish terms needed in the
English language to convey the mean
ing Of various places and objects. The
English language does not apparently
acquire many words from savagery. It
would be pretty hard to name any
words in the English language that
were acquired from the Indians of
North America save the names of
places.
No one knows how many dialects
and different languages are spoken in
the Philippine islands. Gen. Andrew
Burt, who spent several years in the
Philippines and served in important
positions, said that oftentimes he oc-
cupied one point with troops where one
language was spoken, while three miles
away totally different language was
spoken, differing apparently more than
languages of different Indian tribes in
this country. The acquisition of any of
these tribal languages outside of the
Tagalog was almost impossible and
useless. 1t is apparent that whatever
else the Philippines contribute they
will not enrich or enlarge the Ameri-
can language.

taken from vests, diamond studs and col
lar buttons from shirts, and the pockets
of trousers also yielded treasure. After
robbing the occupants of the rear coach
one man was left to guard them while
two others went to the sleeper ahead.
There were between y and Is persons in
this coach, and all were treated in a
manner similar to the passengers in the
other car.
From the time the bandits boarded
the train until they leaped off not more
than eight or ten minutes interviewed.
1t is thought at least one of the rob-
bers was former railroad man, to
have known the method of stopping a
train by pulling the emergency air
cord. When the cord was pulled all of
the bandits ran to the rear coach and
got off when the train had slackened
sufficiently. The Pullman car conduct
or ran ahead and told the engineer of
the hold-up. this being the first intima-
ton he had that the passengers in the
sleepers had been robbed. The train
was only two miles from Matteson and

WILL KEEP HANDS OFF.
President Won't Interfere in the
Great Meat Strike-Riot
in Chicago.

Washington, Aug. 1.-The Chicago
stock yards strike has not attained the
magnitude of national emergency,
and the president will not interfere un-
der existing conditions. This conclu-
sion was arrived at after serious cab
met conference at which the labor sit
uation of the entire country was re-
viewed with the greatest care and in
the light Of the most accurate informa-
ton obtainable
Considering the beef strike from all
sides the conclusion was reached that
no parallel existed between it and the
coal strike. In the coal trouble the
industries of the nation were paral-
lied and the effect of the strike was
felt over wide area. In the stock
yards strike the trouble for the present
is largely localized, the supply of meat
is not cut off entirely and no great suf-
fering has been caused to any except
actual parties to the fight. In view of
these considerations it may besad that,
while the president regrets that there
is a strike in Chicago and in other
packing centers. there is strong dis
position on his part not to interfere
in any way.
Chicago, Aug. -Four thousand
men, women and children, clamoring
for meat, besieged the little union sup
ply station at Thirty-ffth street and
Ashland avenue Monday. Three thou
sand others surrounded the strikers
grocery store at Forty-seventh street
and Gross avenue, demanding bread
and other edibles to replenish bare
pantries and to feed the hungry men.

did not bode we'll for the cause of the

Food in Tabloids.

Every once in awhile one reads that
the food of the future will be served
in tabloids. A meal will be carried in
the waistcoat pocket, or in a shopping
bag. This is nonsense. Tabloids will
preserve life for certain short length
of time. They are excellent to use in
emergencies, on forced marches, and
when travelling. But no one could
live on them. The entire digestive sys-
tenn would have to be altered, and al
most every natural function would
have to change. The Imagination
pauses before the new diseases that
would appear if people ceased to chew.
