Seventeen hundred thousand dollars
worth of automobiles of foreign make
were imported through the port of
New York during the past twelve
months. The consensus of expert
opinion seems to be that American me-
chanics are able to build the best au-
tomobiles in the world. and at price
(tariff charges considered lower than
those of any foreign competitors. But
for some reason or other there are cer-
tain automobile buyers who, like buy
ers of other commodities, imagine that
a foreign label on machine makes it
better than anything that can be pro-
duced in this country. While we are
exporting locomotives to all parts of
the world, and American locomotives
are acknowledged to be world leaders,
we, are importing European automo-
biles-for their labels.

Some few months ago the steamer
St Louis, Of the American line-a line
that it is alleged would profit heavily
by a ship-subsidy bill of the kind that
certain interests. are trying to force
through Congress-was sent to Eng
land to be overhauled and repaired.
New machinery to the value of some
100000 was put into her. She is now
on her return trip to this country. A
meeting of union machinists in New
York few days ago passed resolutions
calling the attention of President
Roosevelt to the st. Louis and de-
manding, in view of the fact that she
is a ship of American registry, that
the full tariff charges on her new ma
chinery be charged and collected by
the customs officials, The tariff rate is
about 45 per cent. on machinery. That
rate is charged on printing presses
made abroad, and the petitioners to the
President assert that there is no rea-
son why printing machinery should be
made to pay the tax while steamship
machinery should be permitted to es-
cape payment.

FEATURES OF THE CHADWICK
CASE.

The trial of Mrs. Chadwick will be
a most interesting one. 1t is doubtful
if it will be productive of any sensa-
tions because about all there is to be
known about her and her transactions
has been made public. Her dupes, how
ever, will present an interesting spec
tacle on the witness stand. There will
be great eagerness to see men who
lgaye uD, more than a million dollars
to a woman who was practically a
stranger to them, and that, too, with
out any valuable security. OF course,
they had security, but it was of the
kind calculated to arouse suspicion.
The reason Mrs. Chadwick gave for
having notes signed by Andrew Car
negie was sufficient to suggest to bank
ers of ordinary ability that an investi-
cation would be in order before ac-
cepting such collateral.
And a remarkable feature of the case
is that the directors of the bank which
held the alleged s5OOO,OOO voted to re-
tain in his position the official who was
so gullible as to be taken in" by the
woman.
The public generally is accustomed
to regard banker as a particularly
shrewd man of business. The ease
with which Cassie Chadwick relieved
number of them of their money is
calculated to create the impression that
the reputation bankers have for busi-
ness acumen and shrewdness is not
well founded. There are many boys who
would have dealt with Mrs. Chadwick
with greater shrewdness and ability
than the Massachusetts and Ohio
financiers did.

Since the beginning Of October there
has been an extraordinary drought in
some parts of the United States. Par
ticularly has the deficiency of moisture
been noticeable in the valley of the
Ohio river. Streams and wells have
gone dry, and cattle and humans have
suffered for want of water. During the
same time the phenomenon of a flood
in part of fathe Sahara desert has
been noted. About the middle of Oc-
tober, according to cable dispatches,
two sections of the Algerian Sahara
was practically overwhelmed with
floods, and many lives were lost. Sew
eral villages on the edge of the desert
were almost swept away. This seems
to be in line with the theory that a
certain amount of precipitation must
occur each year, in one quarter of the
globe or another, and that when it is
excessively dry in one place it is ex-
cessively wet in another.
