We're killed on street cars The police
appeared to be powerless, and before
any semblance of order had been re-
stored at least score Of negroes had
been slain openly in public places. The
riots continued for several days In diff
ferent quarters Of the city before 5000
soldiers were able to control the situa-
ton after disarming many negroes.
Among the negroes arrested was J. L.
Price, postmaster Of the Brownsville
substation in the negro quarter. Three
hundred prisoners were marched three
abreast through the streets to prison
surrounded by soldiers, and a raid on
the negro buildings brought forth wag-
on loads Of arms. Many negroes fed
from the city. and there was great
scarcity of domestic servants and of
all kinds of mental employees. One
man named Henry Moore was lynched
while on his way to Jail, charged with
attempting an assault, notwithstand-
ing that the injured woman had herself
pronounced him innocent. Another
named Zeb Long was taken forcibly
from Jail, where he had been commit
ted for disorderly conduct, and hang
ed. All saloons were closed by the
mayor, and the fire department used
streams of water to restrain the mo5s.
Special editions Of the evening papers
were suppressed, as it was these pa
pers which were believed to have
largely infamed the mob spirit.
In the shadow of Clark university,
negro institution, a party Of mounted
police were ambushed from an alley,
and two policemen, Heard and Jordon.
were killed, and several were wounded
The negroes accused of attacking
white women were indicted. and scores
Of those arrested for disorderiy con-
duct were sentenced to thirty days
without option of a fine Among the
negroes arrested were a number Of
professors and students of the Clark
university. A large gathering of bust
ness and professional men called upon
the authorities to close the negro dives
and saloons. In these demands the
leading negro clergymen joined. A
fund was started for the benefit of the
families of hose who were slain. Suf-
fcient order was restored by Sept. 26
so that the troops were able to leave
the city.

Cost of Farm Production.

An interesting bulletin recently is
sued by the department of agriculture
is designed to show how the cost Of
producing a crop may be accurately
recorded, The report is based upon
experiments made in Minnesota, where
q large number Of farmers co-operated
by making daily record Of every cent
spent for implements, seeds. Materials
labor, etc. Thus the figures represent
the work of practical, everyday form
ers in the act of producing crops for
profit. Taking barley as an example,
the cost of production is itemized under
the heads seed value. cleaning seed,
blowing, dragging, seeding, cutting,
Irvine, shocking, stacking and thrash
ing, depreciation of machinery and
land rental. The figures represent the
average of all farms in the group, the
final figure being the cost per acre.
The bulletin shows how these statistics
may aid in preparing for a system Of
crop rotation.

Strike of the Gold Beaters.
The gold beating industry Is threat
ened with extinction if the strike for
an advance in wages which began

Pope's Commission Radical.
In the opinion of the World Today
the report Of the commission appointed
by Pope Leo to determine what may
be the attitude of the Roman Catholic
scholars to the historico- critical meth
cd Of dealing with the Scriptures would
be regarded as dangerously radical by
many good Protestants. 1t declares
that Moses is the author of the Penta-
touch, but admits that he may have
used older sources and that his work
may have been modified by inspired
authors. unskilled copyists or common
tators. Thus Catholic scholars are to
have reasonable freedom in research

Army Ready to Invade Cuba.
Brigadier General Funston was al
ready at Taft's elbow In Havana and
all details were perfected for the dis
patch of troops to Cuba by the Amer
lean government early last week, not
withstanding that the Cuban govern
ment officials and insurgent chiefs had
signed an armistice requiring both
sides to refrain from hasty actions
pending the peace negotiations.
AT this critical moment the whole
peace plan was upset by the unexpect-
ed a3Iication of President Palma and
the entire Moderate party administra-
ton. This action was regarded by the
Liberals as treason and by Taft as an
unwarranted and dishonorable attempt
to force the United States into inter-
vention. Acting Secretary Of the In
terror Montalvo said he would never

Moran Wins In Massachusetts.
The Democratic primaries in Massa-
chusetts Sept 25 resulted in a ma
jority favorable to the nomination of
District Attorney John B. Moran of
Boston. Moran is the man who came
Into office last year on the reform
wave as an Independent Democrat and
without the aid of the regular party
leaders. His nomination for governor
will also be in spite Of the opposition
Of the machine. The Hearst element
In Boston co-operated with the Moran
forces.
Unions Against Longworth.
Thomas Bentham, a member of the
miners union and an influential leader
Of organized labor in Ohio, was named
by the Democrats at Cincinnati to op-
pose Nicholas Longworth, the son-in-
law of the president, for congress. AS
the labor unions are particularly strong

Mayor Viewers Relapse.
The city of Philadelphia has had tie
remarkable experience Of a refo.,n
mayor suddenly turning upon the re
form organization known as the Git
party because Of it's failure to nomi
nate for district attorney the man
whom he favored. Mayor Weaver not
only charged that bribery had bee''
used to secure the nomination of Glib
honey over Stoyer, but called for the
resignation of his distinguished direct
or of public safety, Colonel Sheldon
Potter, because Potter would not dis
miss his superintendent of police, Tay-
lor, whom the mayor charged with
having aided the nomination of Glib
honey. Al inquiry into the charges
made by the mayor failed fatty, as no
evidence of Importance was forthcom-
ing. The situation thus developed led
to the renewal of overtures from the
regular Republican organization to re-
establish friendly relations with the
mayor Gibboney declined, but later
was renominated by larger majority.
Socialists Active In Colorado.

modify which has been going on for
the past three years The object is to
maintain the price and the groweR by
establishing a minimum quotation at
which it is to be upheld by purchasers
of coffee on account of the states con-
cerned and by fixing the value of the
standard coin. The interest on loan
of $75,000,O00 to be used for these pur-
chases is to be guaranteed and paid by
a tax on every bag of coffee shipped,
and the proceeds Of the loan are to be,
held in gold, against which paper mon
ey is to be issued. The scheme has not
met with the approval Of the Roth
schilds, who are the chief financial re-
sources of the Brazilian government
Lord Rothschild in an interview says
1t is the most impracticable scheme for
raising the price Of a world product
and that even if coffee could be corner.
ed a few good crops in Brazil itself
would destroy the effect Of it. He is
certain that no money will be found to
finance the project, certainly not in
London, Paris or Berlin. But already
the big coffee firms of New York and
Berlin have agreed to help Brazil by
buying up 100000 bags Of coffee.
A Bank For Women.
A novel feature of the Night and
Day bank of New York is the organiza
ton of separate and distinct bank
for women. 1t Is not to be merely
separate room for the reception Of
women depositors, but entirely diff
ferent institution, although under the
same dictatorship as the Night and
Day bank. It was the idea of a wo-
man employed in the bank. She re-
ported that the majority of women de-
positors were annoyed by any delay
and that they objected to standing in
line with men. The same was true
when 1t came to taking out their mon,
ey. They acted On inspiration and
were afraid of change in their minds
If anything delayed them. The wom-
ems bank is to be furnished elaborate
", the floors softened with rugs and
the walls draped with tapestries, but,
strange to say, the teller is not to be
a woman. 1t requires man to prop
erly impress the women customers.
There is to be a dressing room in the
safety vault where women may get
their jewels before going out at night.
The bank will be open until o'clock
in the evening.

If there is one place more than an
other where the term lady carries
mighty little weight it is over on the
East Side Of Manhattan. The qualities
that are naturally associated with this
designation in less congested sections
OF the city are recognized readily
enough, but the term itself is held in
contempt. This, at least, is the opiu-
ion Of a settlement worker who has
spent several years years on the East
Side. THE most sincere compliment
