RABBI NIETO DELIVERS
A POWERFUL SERMON
ernment Are Unappreciative of
Ideal Conditions.

Rabbi Nieto in a powerful sermon
welcomed his congregation last night
at Congregation Sheriff. Israel on the
occasion of the resumption OF the Fri
day evening services.
Rabbi Nieto's subject was Moses. -
The life of the great father of all the
prophets was POLITICALLY described
He said Moses was the standard
bearer of truth and that his thoughts
were ever looking to the wrestling of
the helpless from tyranny.
Moses wished to free the slaves from
Egyptian tyranny, but not understand
ing what liberty meant, they pleaded
to let well enough alone, saying that
it were better to be a slave in Egypt
than starve in the wilderness. This
thought led the rabbi to say that they
could not in twenty years make an
American citizen OF a man who is ac-
customed to tyrannous government.
The man, said the rabbi, will sub
scribe to the laws of the country, but
he shows himself unappreciative of
the institutions Of freedom because of
his not understanding the new ideals
and conditions

WEATHER HELPS
RETAIL TRADE
Dun's Review Reports Bus
inesS Brisk and Harvest
ing Progressing, Favorably

NEW YORK, Oct. 28-Dun's Weekly
Review of Trade tomorrow will say:
Mild weather early in the week
checked the distribution of seasonable
goods, but had a permanent value in
facilitating the harvesting of cotton
and late grains. Subsequently the tenn
perature fell, restoring retail trade in
wearing apparel, fuel and similar prod
ucts TO greater activity than was ex-
perienced year ago. Building opera
tions are active, strengthening the
markets for lumber and materials.
Manufacturing plants are making
steady gains, particularly in leading
industries, and it is significant that re-
luctance to do business has shifted
from buyers to sellers, eliminating
largely the concessions in prices that
prevented stability
Labor is unusually well EMPLOYED.
judging by the official compilation of
the unions. Freight blockades cause
some complaint, which is remarkable
in view of the restricted grain move
ments, and earnings in the three weeks
of October were 81 per cent larger than
that in 1908. Foreign commerce at this
port for the last week exceeded the
same period year ago by S1,5S9. .7T9 in
value of exports and S1,011, ,S5l in i'm
ports.
Demand for domestic hiles in West
ern markets continues sufficient to alb
sorb all offerings, fully maintaining
quotations and in some instances caus-
ing advances. After long period of
dullness there has occurred a general
advance of small fractions in foreign
dry hides.
Failures this week numbered 233- in

MERCHANT COMMITS SUICIDE
RATHER THAN FACE POVERTY
Aged Rudolph Lichtenberg Meets
With Business Reverses and
Becomes DespOndenf.

Depressed by a long series of busi-
ness reverses that had slowly drained
him of his wealth. Rudolph Lichten-
berg, a merchant and broker doing
business at 3O3 California street, took
his own life some time yesterday
morning. Death is supposed to have
been caused by cyanide poisoning.
The body was found by some boys
who were playing in Golden Gate
Park. It was in the brush opposite
the half-mile post of the speedway.
No bottle was found near the spot,
although a careful search was made
by the Coroner's deputies. who were
summoned TO take charge of the re-
mains.
Mr. Lichtenberg had been in busi-
ness twenty years in this city. He en-
gagged in a general shipping and COM
mission trade and was agent for sew
eraI commercial houses in Hanover,
Germany, his birthplace. At one
time he was considered a wealthy
man. but speculation decreased his
capital and in late years he has had
a hard time making both ends meet.
However, his two sons are alive and
they claim the financial situation with
the IdnlllE was not so SlTdlneQ lndl
the old gentleman should have taken
it so seriously.
Edward Lichtenberg. the eldest son,
was much grieved over his fathers
death He said that his father did not
come home last night and this greatly
worried the family. The Lichten-
bergs reside at 1924 California street
Before death the suicide wrote a
letter in German TO his wife, which
translated reads:
Ny poor unfortunate wife: Put up
with the inevitable. You have been
strong and tried in misfortune. Bet
ter without me than with me. I am
almost crazy. God watch over you
all"
IT is thought that the old gentleman
must have taken the poison some time
during the early morning hours. To
his note he added postscript that re-
quested his wife to see a Mr.. Ed
wards He viii aid you,' he said.
Mr.. Edwards has left the city tempo
rarily. He is a broker at 303 Califor-
MIA street and had had business deal
ings with deceased. The unfortunate
suicide was 6S years Of age.

COLLECTIONS ARE GOOD.
Bradstreet's Review of Weeks Trade
Is Optimistic i'm Tone.

NEW YORK, Oct 2S.-Bradstreet,s
Tomorrow will say: Cooler weather has
helped retail trade at the West and
South. This is reflected in some re-
order business from jobbers and whole
salers, which, while steady and better
than last year at this date. is not en-
tirely up to expectations. This is possi
Dly cue TO the close proximity of the
election, which is credited In a few re-
ports with holding back some business
Leading industries give quite satisfac-
tory reports, iron in its cruder form
leading, with active demand at adyanc-
ing prices. Collections as a whole are
classed as good, being relatively best
at the South. Railroad earnings for
the first half of October viii run over 6
per cent ahead of those of 1903. There
still appear unmistakabIe signs that
caution and conservatism have not lost
their value as yet and that these Quail
ties still weigh the tendency toward
optimism noted in recently preceding
weeks.
The features in this weeks trading
are the good reports from leading West

tied cold weather is noted at the East
to stimulate fail distribution at retail.
