DEFAULTING CASHIER
CAUSES BANKS RUIN
Brendel & Co., An Old Institution oi
Berlin, Is Forced to
the Wall.

BERLIN, March THE failure OF
BrendeI & Co., a banking house, was
announced to-day. The firm was es-
tablished in 1878. The difficulties of
the concern are attributed to the en-
bezzlement and speculation Of a CASH
ier, who has absconded.
The liabilities of Brendel & Co. are
estimated at 100000 at the utmost
and probably will be less. Johannes
Reinhard is the name Of the cashier
who caused the banks ruin. the old
est financial bureau in Berlin. Rein
hard disappeared on Saturday, leaving
a note for his wife saying:
"Good-by, dear; 1 am sorry, but L
could not do otherwise"
Reinhard had secretly led a disso-
lutte life. 1t was reported on the
Boerse to-day that he recently sold
securities valued at s150,000 belong
ing 20 the firm.
About $50 creditors gathered in
front of the bank to-day, but they re-
ceived no comforting assurances.

Cost of Living Still Going Tn.

1t may be we'll to call the attention
of hundreds Of thousands Of steelwork-
ers cotton mill operatives, miners and
others, who have humbly accepted re-
ductiOns in their wages running from
10 to 40 per cent, or who are now idle
because many mills are closed, to the
fact that while wages are going down
the cost of living is going up.
Dun's index number was $1OO142 on
Jan. l, 1904 compared with $9S.22 a
month ago, and is the highest since
last March. 1t is within about per
cent Of the highest known in recent
years, which was $1O22S9 on May l,
1902. 1t is now about 80 per cent
above the lowest point, which was on
July l, 1897.
This means that the trusts have not
yet loosened their grip and that they
are counting on lower wages to de-
crease their cost Of production and in
crease their monopoly profits. Is it
possible that they have bunkoed their
employees into accepting lower wages
when there was no actual necessity for
it? Are wages now 40 per cent higher
than six or seven years ago? Are they
10 per cent higher? If not is there
now Or has there been at any time
prosperity for the wage earners? And
now, when wages are reduced an av-
erage Of Is or 20 per cent, while the
cost of living goes up per cent, shall
we call this prosperity? Ask your
Republican congressman what is the
cause Of this kind of prosperity and
what he is going to do to break the
tight grip of the protected trusts and
give the common people chance to
live again.

TARIFF REFORM POSSIBLE.
Public Opinion VIII Force Republic
nm Senators to Vote For Revision.

Senators to Vote For REVISION.
The outlook for tariff reform was
never brighter than at present. The
election of a Democratic president is
more promising than at any time since
1892. and Democratic majority in the
next house of representatives is more
than probable. A change of only few
votes in Il majority of the close states
and congressional districts will produce
that happy result. Every one by talk
ing with his ncighbOrs can find I; con
siderable percentage of Republicans
who are either denOuncing trust CXtpr-
ton or are disgustcd with the policy of
their leaders,
The independent voter. the suffering
Workingman, whose wages are being
reduced, the farmer who is paying pro
lection prices and whose products SOIL
i'll competition with the world. the Citi-
zen 0f limited income Who finds tiin cost
of living beyond his means all Of thes"
who are not hidebound partisans are

such as New York, Indiana and Hi

scale will vote against thcij= party or

Those voters whose hearts are set llp-
on reforming the tariff and erlrl,ing the
eXactions of the trusts but who think
the senate viii stand as a bulwnrk
against reform, can take courage when
they remember there are Il number Of
Republican senators who are inoculat-
ed With the antitrust virus and will re-
spond to the public demand for rea-
sonable tariff reform and an honest
and economical administration of ma
tional affairs With Democratic pres
idcnt and a majority of the house of
representatives Of the same political
af1iiation there will be found enough
senators to pass a reform bill that will
at least reduce the tariff so that trust
productions will be sold as cheapIy
here as abroad.
