1t is not many months since a young

No one dreamed in all probability that
omission of the promise to obey might

n recent pronouncemcnt by Mayor Nc
Clcllan of New York we strongly suspect
that he is making powerful appeal for

LETTERS FROM THE PEOPLE.
The Present Crusade against Bovine

THE BALTIMORE CONFEDERATION.

The people OF Baltimore will have the
sympathy of all sister cities as well as
of the people of this broad land in gen
eral in the terrible calamity which has
come to them In the destruction of the
heart of the business section of their
beautiful city. The only connae rations
comparable to that which has now visited
Baltimore are those which devastated
Chicago in 1871 and Boston in 1872. In
Chicago three and one-half square miles
OF the best portion Of the city were laid
waste: 17,k0 buildings destroyed with Il
total loss of 5000, 900 and 300 persons
were killed. In Boston 500 building, COW
ering an area of eighty acres, We're
destroyed with a total property loss of
s73, 0oc, ooo and fifteen people were killed
So far as stated at this writing there
has been little loss Of life as a result Of
the confaGration in Baltimore. but the
property damage is tremendous, 2.50D
buildings having been destroyed with a
loss estimated by the insurance mon at
over s10oo00,000 While allowance must be
made for wild estimat :, it is evident
that the total loss of property in Balti-
more will stand on our record next to
that growing out of the great Chicago
fire,

market has shown surprising ability to
resist reactionary tendencies.
Now we have another discouragng in
iiuencc in the gigntic conlagraion which
continued yesterday to deWstatc large
part of tho business section and the lun-
oer district of Baltimore. The wiping out

as tremendous as is this calamity. ana
though its disastrous effects will be wide
spread through the losses suffered by in
surance companies in different cities and
different countries we believe the inilu-
ence of this disaster on our business ana

has gained such immense impetus, that
it seems rs though no calamity or combi-
nation OF untoward influences could ar
rest its progress. Not even the great po-
litical finnnciers could dam the stream of
prosperity, and il they could not breed

can defy a presidential election. as does
that of the present. is indeed Irresistible,

HOW ROOSEVELT OPPOSITION IS
MADE.

II the reports from different States
concerning alleged opposition to the re-
nomination Of President Roosevelt have
no better foundation than that sent out
from Vermont and grcedily swallowed by
the anti-Roosevelt newspapers. then it is
manifest that his republican enemies are
building on the shifting sands.
Some of our readers will recall the fact
that in commenting on the recent an
nouncement that q Hanna omissaly had
begun operations in one of the Brooklyn
districts as shown by a prospective dele
gates declaration for the Ohio senator, we
showed how the Mckinley movement was
begun in southern Vermont in 1896 with
the result that tho solid New England
for Thomas Il. Reed was broken, and
the Maine mans presidential boom was
efiectually sidetracked. We stated, how
ever, that no opposition to President
Roosevelt had manifested itself in the
State, and there was every indication that
Vermont would send a delegation for him.
An enterprising correspondent revamps
the historical references in our article;
says there are many republicans in Yer
mont who are beginning to question
whether it would be wise to nominate
Roosevelt. and adds that if other States
should indicate a falling away from the
President there is a feeling that the Green
Mountain State could not be depended
upon for Roosevelt.
The anti-Roosevclt New York Sun grabs
this straw and puts striking heads over il
to the effect Vermont Hanna Sentiment"
state convention may so for him as it
did Unexpectedly for Mckinley in 1896"
Residents of other States who read this
startling announcement would naturally
infer that there was an incipent rovolu-
tion in opposition to the President. Judg-
Ing from the comment of the Rutland Her.
aid and the Montpelier Journal, repro
duced under what Our Neighbors Say
the same correspondent took into camp
the Boston Herald and they find no anti
Roosevelt sentiment in their respective To-
calities.
Incidentally this work of political imagi-
nation on the part of a Vermont CORE
spondcnt may serve well to illustrate how
come political booms are manufactured,

PROSPERITY THAT DEEIES ALL.

one Of tho gratifying features of the
business situation is the manner in which
the American business public Wthslands
the various disturbing influences coin
cidont 1T the present time. 1t has been
practically certain for number of days
that war would result between Russia
ana Japau,and yet ourstock markets have
l.own llttle evidence that our Industrial,
financial and commercial interests are I'M
duly disturbed by the prospect of hos
tiitios in the Far East.
Another influence that at one time would
have had a depressing effect on tho mar
kot is the announcement that the Penn
sylvania Railway company is seeking to
i.oat a loan of $50 o0o, 600. 1t is true that
this bitter pill for investors has been
inceniously sugar coated with the state
ment that a large part Of this sum ia
to he devoted 10 the varied improvements
neccssitatod by compromise between the
Pennsylvania ana the Wabash interests
10y which the Could Rockefeller people
abandon their project to extend their
lines to Baltimore and use the pcnnsyl-
vania system as the Atlantic outlet Of the
Gould trarscontinental route; bat the
Pennsylvania had already sought credit
ON an enormous scale, and the announce
mont Of another loan of the proportions
named naturally might become a dis
turhing factor to serious degree in the
stock market.
II the Pennsylvania loan project were
the only influence Of its kind, the cit
uatioa would be different, but as a mat
ter of fact different corporations, trans
portation and Industrial are at the pros
cnt timo seeking to borrow no less than
$500, 00.011 Tho effect of this coincidence
of demand for large loans is to increase
the tendency on the part of bankers to
scrutnize collateral more closely and to
strengthen the rate for money on both
call and time loans.
A disturbing influence of a somewhat
different nature from those named is the
preparation on the part Of Secretary Shaw
cf the national treasury department for
the payment of $J000,0u0 on account of
the Panama canal purchase. 1t Is true
that Secretary Shaw has expressed the
belief that he could so arrange matters
as to meet the Panama necessity without
taking any steps that would interfere
with our business interests, but hnanciers
and spectators are accustomed to make
certain allowances for great financial
events Of this character and any CON
servative Spectator would expect to see
some influence on the market grow out
of tie transfer of a sum OF these proper
lions.
