CLIMATE IN MAYCHURLA.
IL Plays a Prominent Part In the
Fortunes Of War.

The climate OF Manchurla plays M
important role In the war between
Russia and japan. Up to the present

seasons. lie states that in the months
Of March and April there are strong
southwest winds which bring with
them beat and moisture. At the end
OF March the winter season ends. The
undersoil IL still frozen at this time,
but the ground can be- worked for agri-
culture. April appears 10 be the only
month OF spring. At the end OF this
month the sowing Of wheat commences.
Summer begins In May. and at the end
OF June or the beginning Of July the
wheat Is cut. Up to the end Of June
rain is rare and the sky Is generally
clear. while cloudy weather IL an ex-

August Afterward come heavy rains
or storms. II often rains for several
days and nights without stopping. The
soil Is completely saturated and inun-

September is the harvest month.
while October gives some OF the finest
weather OF the year. At this time the
climate Is agreeable during the day and
the sky is clear. with bracing air. while
vegetation is az its height. At the end

cold weather commences and keeps up

cold Is not excessive. and sometimes in
the middle OF the winter the suns rays
become very warm. on account OF the
southcrly position Of that locality. The

Goth Century Empire Building.

Great as is the power OF war in the
building Of an emplre-and the Jap
anese- Russian war will probably make
great nation OF Japan-there Is an
even greater force ut work In the
world that will In the end decide the
fates OF peoples. This Is the power OF
one nation TO absorb the individuals
rather than TO wipe out or swallow
another government. The Twentieth
Century will probably witness the
greatest Capitalization OF peoples
under vast empires, that the world
has seen since the days OF
Roman greatness. When the CEN
fury ends, the outlook Is that there
will be half dozen first nations,
created nv assimilation instead OF war.
Japan VIII be one, with its influence
felt throughout Eastern Asia. Russia
will OF course, advance, Germany will
probably have absorbed Austria. The
Latin races OF Southern Europe may
have combined for self-protection.
England will go on empire building,
and the United States will have
spread over the continent. and maybe
two continents, besides having alb
sorbed vast numbers Of peoples from
all countries Of the earth.

ganiZation was never so strong and
carefully nurtured as at present; party
discipline was never so rigid; party
leadership was never so placidly recog-
nized and implicitly obeyed by party
workers. The change has come about
in comparatively recent years. In
fact, the present generation OF voters
have witnessed its coming. Samuel j.
Tilden showed the way. AS a result of
his teaching. not party principle. but
party organization, won for the Demo-
cratic party sweeping victories in Re
publican strongholds and was started
fairly on the road 30 a long lease OF
national control. Then appeared the
late Marcus A. Hanna from his business
cloister and gave impulse within his
party to movement similar to that
which, under the tutelage of Tilden,
had brought surprising victories to the
Democrats.
The spirit OF organization which now
animates both of the great parties is
not indolent or lukewarm between
campaigns. In an important sense. IL
Is as active now as il was when the
lines OF battle were drawn after the
national conventions Of last summer
had done their work. The difference
between them Is made conspicuous by
reason OF the fact that the Republican
party Is in power and its central or
ganization-the National Committee
is necessarily more in evidence than its
counterpart in the opposition organtza-

Stocks and Bonds.

New York, Sept. 25.-Speculative
liquidation today overbore the resist
ance offered by the stock market
through all of last week and carried
prices comprehensively to lower
level. The construction of the money
supply was the impelling cause. The
volume of offerings was large and
the liquidation at times showed signs
of urgency. Today's immediate fac
tors in the money market have been
heralded for weeks but have been
disregarded in the operations to adj
vance prices The temper of the stock
market for many days has been to
disregard any prospective influence
and pay attention to nothing but the
actual recall of credits in which stock
market holdings were involved. Such
recall was in force on a large scale
today by the banks. Assertions OF
| additional gold purchased today in
| London for New York were verified
| only after the market closed by the
announcement of $1,S00,000 secured.
News of general affairs continued
| favorable but the uniformity of recent
reports of increasing railroad traffic
was varied this week by damage
caused by floods in the Southwest.
| The recent annual report Of the Atchi-
son and the heavy losses for the year
| there shown from the damage by
flood enforced the influence of the
news. The failure of the st. Paul
stockholders to take action towards
| issuing new stock caused disappoint-
ment on the part of a party of specu-
lators who have counted very conf
IDENTIFY upon such action.
| The trading in stocks became very
dull at times, but it was only in the
| pauses of liquidation and when the
| market was active prices declined.
