THE BUSINESS SITUATION
Trade Stands the Shocks Of War
and Fire Very Well.
Many indications Give Rise TO De.
cidedly Hopeful Feeling a.
to the Future.

New York, Feb. 13.-R. G. Dun & Co.'S
Weekly Review Of Trade says: WAR,
fire and cotton were the adverse factors
Of the week, yet the country stood the
shocks remarkably well, and there are
numerous encouraging symptoms. To
large degree the outbreak of HOSTILE
ties in the orient and the collapse of the
cotton boom has been discounted, and
the disastrous loss Of the confagration
was Offset very largely by the stimulus
it will give to many industries. notably
structural steel. In restoring Ba1t-
more there will be great activity in the
building trades. while large stocks Of
goods must be replaced, and orders filled
by jobbers and manufacturers else
where. Buyers are arriving in this city
In large numbers from all sections Of
the country, and there is a good demand
for all leading staple lines. with notable
urgency for prompt shipment of cotton
goods. The labor situation throughout
the country is almost devoid OF friction.
Actual business Is still restricted in
the iron and steel industry, but there
Is more confidence in the future, and the
extensive starting of plants by the lead
ing producers suggests that foreign mar
kets will be entered more aggressively
than ever before. Structural steel pros
poets have greatly improved because Of
the Baltimore fire, as 1t is certain that
an enormous tonnage will be required
/ to restore the ruined buildings.

Gus Outlaw.

Helena, Mont, Feb. 13.-Frank
Jones, said to- be notorious outlaw,
was instantly killed by two members
of a sheriff's posse Thursday evening
at the ranch Of A. N. Lande, in the
northwestern part of the state. Jones,
1t is alleged, was the leader of gang
that has terrorized the cattlemen and
stockmen of that valley for ten years.
Their raids on ranchers were frequent
and daring and they carried away
thousands Of head of stock, burned
ranch buildings and destroyed proper
ty. Rewards aggregating $500 were
standing for Jones, dead or alive.

Governor Cummins is TO be com
mended for the firm adherence to the
idea" and John S. Williams for his
enunciation of doctrine of moderate
and gradual tariff revision but there
is nothing original in either proposit-
ion. AS long ago as 1883 the demo-
cratic national platform anticipated
them in these words: Judged BY
democratic principles, the interests
OF the people are betrayed when, By
UNNECESSARY TAXATION, trusts and
combinations are permitted to exist,
which, while unduly enriching the
few that combine, rob the body of the
citizens by depriving them of the benz
efts of natural competition" And
going back to the platform of 1894 We
lind the following: KNOWING full
well, however, that legislation Affect
Ing the occupations of the people
should be cautious and conservative
In method, not In advance OF public
opinion, butresponsive to its demands,
the democratic party is pledged to re.
wise the tariff in a spirit OF fairness
to all interested. Thus we find the
Williams democratic idea and the
Cummins republican idea in the dem.
ocratic platforms of sixteen and TWEEN.

CANNOT HAVE
THE SOLDIERS
Maryland's Request for Federal
Troops Is Denied.
THE CABINET TAKES ACTION
While the Legislature Asks for Their
Presence in Baltimore the Cow
ernor Contends That They
Are Not Needed.

Washington, Feb. 13.-At the cabinet
meeting, after long consideration Of
the resolution adopted by the Mary
land legislature, calling for troops for
duty in Baltimore, it was decided not
to comply at this time with the re-
quest. Prior to the cabinet meeting
Brig. Gen. Riggs, as special messen-
ger from Gov. Warield, formally pre-
sented to the president the resolution
adopted by the legislature. He con-
veyed at the same time Gov. Warfield's
personal statement that the troops
were not needed. This presented an
anomalous, situation, and the cabinet
determined not to send troops at this
time.
Secretary Of War Taft was present
when Gen. Riggs presented to the
president his communications. The
resolution of the Maryland legislature
was written and was presented as a
formal document; but the message
from Gov. Warfield was verbal. Gen.
Riggs did not elaborate his message
Twice-a-week plain dealer. (Cresco, Howard County, Iowa) 1895-1913, 1904-02-16

from the governor, simply expressing
1t as the governors opinion that the
assistance Of United States troops in
Baltimore at this time was not neces-
sary.
, In view of this difference of opinion
between Gov Warfield and the legis-
lature, the president and his cabinet
determined that, in the circumstances,
It would be inadvisable to send troops
to the fire-stricken city, however much
they might desire to lend the aid Of
the government to maintain order and
protect property. The situation as
presented by the difference Of opinion
came as surprise to the president
and the cabinet.
In the consideration Of the subject
by the cabinet, attention was called to
the fact that, on the assurance of Sem
ator German and Gov. Warfield that
the Maryland legislature would adopt
q resolution last Monday night, re-
questing the assistance of United
States troops in Baltimore, Secretary
Taft Immediately had ordered the
troops to the city under command Of
Gen. c. G. Corbin, Of the department
Of the east. The resolution was not
adopted at that time and the govern
ment was. placed in rather an anom-
alous position. Secretary Taft re-
solved the situation by Withdrawing
the troops already in Baltimore and by
countermanding the orders of others
on the way to the city. The cabinet
approved his action.
The statement Of Gov. Warfield was
regarded as making 1t quite certain
that the executive authorities of the
city Of Baltimore and state of Mary
land were amply able to cope with any
situation likely to arise. and the presi-
dent and his cabinet felt, therefore,
that they could not respond favorably
to the request Of the legislature.
Aid Not Needed.
Baltimore, Nd, Feb. 13.--At con-
ference held Friday between the may
or and the citizens committee 1t was
decided that no call would be made for
outside assistance to relieve the dis
tressed situation caused by the fire.
II 1t is found necessary later on the
municipality will float loan to meet
all needs.

IN CONGRESS-.
The House Establishes Record IN
the Passage of Private PEN

Washington, Feb. 13.-Speaker Can
non on Friday took the bit In his
teeth and ran away completely with
legislative precedent in the house. In
cidentally he broke all previous rec
ords in the dispatch of private pension
bills. Under his guidance 800 of these
measures of relief were passed by the
house in 1856 minutes Nearly the
whole of this time was consumed IN
committee Of the whole. The house
passed the bills zen bloc" under unan-
-imous consent, which the speaker him
self asked for. About half Of the bills
were disposed Of. under this request,
those without amendment. When OBJ
lection was temporarily made the
speaker plainly showed his displeasurs
by dragging the proceedings: The OBJ
lection was withdrawn, whereupon
the remaining bills were declared
passed without even the formality Of
having the clerk read their numbers.
The senate listened to the reading by
Senator Carmack Of a speech prepared
by Senator Morgan in opposition to the
presidents policy with reference to an
isthmian canal, and also considered
the bill appropriating 100000 to ex-
Queen Lilioukalani of Hawaii. Speeches
in support Of the bill were made by
Senators Blackburn and Mitchell, and
in opposition by Senators Spooner and
Plat (Conn.). Senator Spooner noved
