Munich is one Of the most beautiful
cities in Europe, with broad streets,
frequent fountains, many stately stat

wooded parks, swift river flowing
directly through the center Of the
residence section, galleries that contain
several Of the finest recollections Of
pictures and sculpture in the world, IL
braries, academies of design, schools
of science, a magnificent opera house,
theater that was erected exclusively
for the production Of Wagner's operas,
and various other attractions which do
not disturb the classic atmosphere,
but appeal to the artist, the student
and whoever seeks for beauty and for
rest. No city Of equal size has SO many.

in "Miss Auto of Mobile" the
three-act farce comedy, last
night, if laughter and applause

verdict of the people is that it is
a great show. In fact, several
people claimed they laughed until
they cried, and pronounced the
farce one Of the best they have
seen IN long time. Tonight the
company repeats "The Altar of
Sacrifice. /" The reason for re-
peating was the strong demand
made by the public to see it
again. The play is a strong four

THE PULLMAN HOTEL.

Dulutu nordlu: Liz TdllTOiu
rate regulation bill that congress
passed last winter included the
sleeping and dining car concerns.
among the transportation in
dustries that are to be regulated
by the interstate com MERGE COM
mission.
The Pullman company, which
operates dining and sleeping and
chair cars on many railroads, has
paid no attention to the law,
though it is specifically included.
1t IS announced that the com.
pany takes the position that it is
doing hotel business, not a
transportation business, and
therefore it is not common
carrier. -
1t is probable that the courts
will make short work of that
proposition. IN
The attorneys of the Pullman
company may see enough in it to
warrant making a fight, but it
does not appeal to the disinter-
ested as being a very strong
point.
It is true that the charges of
the Pullman cars are made indie
pendent of transportation, and
are based on time rather than
distance. Yet, in the case of a
railroad trip, time and dis lance
are so closely associated that it
will take pretty fine surgical
work to separate them.
However, the important point
about the little controversy that
is going to take place on this
issue between the government
and the Pullman company is that
it will lead lot of people to Won
der, as some have already won
dered, why the railroads cannot
be made to furnish this service
instt al of farming it out to cor
porations that are IN a position to
declare themselves independent
of regulatory laws.
Many railroads already furnish
their own sleeping car and dining
service. Several of the roads
running into Duluth have their
own special cars, while others
still patronize the Pullman outfit.
If some of the roads can do
this, why not all?
And if the Pullman company is
upheld in it's contention that it is
in the hotel business, and not in
the transportation business, it
will make a strong argument in
favor of compelling all of the rail
roads to furnish sleeping accom-
modations for their passengers.
As a correlative proposition,
couldn't a company owning cattle
cars claim that it was not a com.
mon carrier, but a livery stable?
And why can't a company own
ing refrigerator cars that carry
meat claim that it a butcher, not
a con- mon carrier?

Value of Crop Reports.

The old old question as to the value of official crop reports Is again being thrashed over. It comes up every year about this time, and the dispute in viru- lant form lasts four or five months. Every year 1t is pointed out that these reports must be underestimated. both of acreage and production. because the in formation upon which they are based comes from the farmers who are natu- rally interested in making as lean show ing as possible. Every year receipts and shipments of farm products taken In connection with known consumption proves the inaccurary of official esti- mates. There has hardly been time when proved results have not shown the actual production of grain and cotton to have been larger than departmental in- dications. Such having been the record of the past, experienced people have fall en into the habit of making allowances much the same as a housewife does whose kitchen clock runs five or ten minutes slow a day. The action of the stock market on receipt of the government crop report this week was vote of lack of confidence in the accuracy of the official figures, although private ad- vices from several states wre in SUD- port of the department of agriculture.

Is very likely to. shape itself to meet that condition easily and naturally. Bank CTS and business men throughout the land have been talking for weeks over the strong probability of snug money as soon as the demand began to be felt for crop-moving purposes, the extreme pressure to be felt. as usual, late in the autumn. The question which is up for Wall street debate in this connection is whether this process of adjustment to meet expected monetary constrietion will include a period of liquidation In the stock market The bearish contingent believes that such will be the case, and that the wise people will take advan- tage of any rise in price during the summer months to get out of their speeu- 1ative holdings and take in sail whatever possible. If this theory be correct. then the efforts of the pools and cliques to mark up quotations may be met with disappointment. They are going ahead, however, and laying plans for manipula- tive endeavor in many of the specialties. Hot campaigns are predicted in many railroad and industrial stocks. Most of the old favorites are being actively stirred and prompt advantage is taken of every favorable development The general movement thus far has been slow and irregular, but the average Is creep ing up week by week, and Is now within a few points of the high record level es- tablished last January. Meanwhile call money is gradually working easier, and time money is also evincing the same tendency. Arrangements have been made this wek for time loans seven months ahead on basis of per cent. This does not look like a money famine next win tor

Trunk Line Consolidation.

There has been recent revival of the old story of a hard and fast consolidation or the eastern trunk lines into a gigantic trust, but 1t is not given serious credence. The railroad trust was in much vogue prior to and about the time of the forma- tion of the Northern Securities company Litigation over that unique holding com pany put to sleep any plans which might have been under discussion for trunk line consolidation, and there seems now no valid excuse for an awakening. IL is very doubtful if there can ever be a combine among the eastern trunk line railroads more effective than the one which is now in actual operating exist ence-a combine framed on community of interest basis. A great many rich men and estates, with powerful banking interests in foreground and background have joint ownership concern in entire peace among the railroads of the east. This intervening of interests makes for increasing harmony and removes what ever need might have been felt at one lime for a giant combine designed to bring all of the great systems under single control

Failure of Wabash Boost.

George Gould's plan for lifting Wabash out of the slough of financial despondency by increasing it's mortgage debt $9O00O.- 900. has not made such hit in Wall street. although desperate effort was made to give the announcement bullish coloring. The frogs belly was too full of shot to permit of much buoyancy. however It's attempt to jump and to be lively was feeble and inefficient. Try as they may. the spectators cannot get up enthusiasm over any or the 1ouio properties. Nearly everybody who touches them loses money.

St. Paul is also contributing to the upbuilding of the great northwest and within two years will have reached Puget Sound, if present plans do not miscarry. This is only one feature of the competitive railroad building predict ed last year by MT. Hartman. Exten- sive construction is going on through many parts of the west, and MT Gould has given no signs of abandoning his plans for the completion of his trans continental system.

 New Line.
MONEY OUTLOOK IS GOOD
BY w. G, NICHOLAS,

New York, June 16.-For some reason khe stock market does not have the snap to 1t that many sanguine bulls had hoped to see by this time. Business conditions are all that can be asked, and the foun- dations of the market are unquestionably strong, but the public does not come in. Commission houses complain that they are getting but very few outside orders, and what trading there is seems to be largely of the professional and semi professional sort. The truth is the people who constitute "The public" are too busy attending to their own business to find time to play the stock market Further more, they have other uses for their money besides putting 1t up to margin trades in stocks. Just at this time they are giving special attention to real es- tate and gold and copper mining. These specialties are licking up immense sums of money. Real estate speculation is go- ing on all over the country, and the fever to buy mining shares is rising. Never In the history of the country has there been such a mining excitement as that now raging. great many splen- did mining propositions are before the public, but a great majority of these pressing for attention are of the wildcat variety, and every dollar put in them will be lost. There is hardly a community of any size east of the Missouri river that has not been invaded by schemers with gopher holes for sale. which they dlgnify by the name of mines and capitalize away up into the millions per hole. The money that is being poured into worthless mining stocks would be great boon to Wall street if it could be diverted into that quarter The own erss of the money insist, however, upon exercising the right of investing 1t as they please; and, after all, the results might not be so different. The great bulk of money put into speculation In stocks, whether they be railroad indus trial. mining, marine or whatnot. is event. ually lost Cynics therefore refuse to be- come excited over the popular tendency to gamble in mining shares. They say that inasmuch as the gamblers are bound to lose their money anyway 1t might as well go to one set of exploters as another This is all wrong, of course, for they don't gamble in Wall street.

Bull Tips Wrong.

These are the days when bull tips have a habit of going wrong in the stock market This is very discouraging to traders who pin their faith to inspired forecasts and shakes confidence in the ability of some of the bobtailed pools to perform according to schedule. It IS surprising what influence some or these tips have as market factors, particularly after they have been going right for a time It is certain as anything can be, however. that tips given currency by manipulators will one day land their followers with the goods. That is the sole purpose of their manufacture. The money which the dealers allow the tip players to make is merely loaned to them on demand paper.
