Chicago, Sept. THE Postal Tel
egraph Company yesterday began
suit against the Commercial Telegra-
piers Union OF America on the
grounds that the latter had contract
ed a debt for the transmission OF
messages and that no payment had
been made thereon. According to
officials Of the telegraph company.
no answer was made when bills for
kilograms were presented to the
union.
Upon inquiry. the company was
told that the union declined to pay
unless the telegraph company would
certify that the message had reached
their destination by sending n
chaser after every message. The
company refused TO comply with the
request, and, as no settlement could
be reached, the telegraph company
brought suit. The messages in uues-

Some idea of the size of ocean-go.
ing ships may be obtained from the
following: In 1910 the length of the
largest ship in existence was 200 feet
in 1855, 375 feet; in 1881, 525 feet; in
1906, 675 feet; in 1907, 7S6 feet. The

antitrust laws-imprisonment of the violatorsfof the law.
 The president has recommended a great many remedies for the trust evil but has omitted the real one. which is tariff revision. How is it that it has never occurred to the president to recommend the abolition of all custom datuies on everything which is in the hands of monopoly in this country. especially as to those monopoiies who are selling their pro ducts for less in foreign countries than they are in the United States.
 The election of Governor Hughes as president of the United States would be a great improvement on the pres ent incumbent who goes no further than to make grand stand plays in the matter of neeGed reforms.
 Roosevelt has accomplished nothing which is real in the matter of reliev- ing the people from the expressions and monopolies of the trusts, but by his radical speech has alarmed the country until today it is on the verge of financial panic for no apparent reason other than the heap big talk of the president and his administra- ton associates.
 It is about time to call halt on Roosevelt and look for some other to fill the presidential chair. If this man is to be a republican. then we believe Hughes of New York would measure up to any other who has been men toned as 8 republican candidate.

ROCK ISLAND To EXPAND.

NEW YORK, Sept. 17--Absorption Of the Chicago 6 Alton by the Clover Leaf is not the only change sched- uled in the railroad map of the west and the southwest.
 Negotiations for the sale of the Colorado & Southern were on not long since, but because of the unfa- yorable conditions prevailing in the financial world the project was tenn porarily abandoned.
 That the Colorado 6 Southern will, in the not remote future, become a part of the Rock Island system, was admitted today by gentleman who is familiar with every step taken by the Rock Island group. He pointed cut that the Colorado & Southern was the logical connection by which the Rock Island might, by the building of about 300 miles from its terminus at Orin Junction, Wyo., connect with the Hill roads.

If there is to be slowing up of the the copper craze we may expect to see mining.

HUGHES MAY MAKE TROUBLE FOR TEDDY.

According to reports from New York the friends of Governor Hughes of that state are getting busy in the work of pushing his candidacy ToF the presidency, notwithstanding the efforts of President Roosevelt and the administration forces to hold the Elm pire state for Taft. It is claimed that New York under no circumstances can be counted for the administration forces if GoIernor Hughes will allow the use of his namezsu-the republican national convention next year.
 It is claimed that Hughes would be able to get the votes controlled by Cannon, Knox and Fairbanks in case neither of these men could win next year, as they all recognize that the New York GeyeznoS wO1Ia, De much strongsg Refcah the, people than either Roosevelt or AeyO3e who could be named as the favorite of the presi- dent.
 It is believed in New York that the people are growing tired of the radi- calism of the president and feel that a man more conservative in speech will be required to hold the confidence of the country which is now badly dis. tnrbe6 in it's commercial interests be cause of the threats of the president and his administration.
 The people of the country, while they have applauded the words of the president when he has promised the regulation of the trusts and inc re lief Of the country from ihe monoplies resulting from combinations of capi tai. are growing very tired waiting for tangible results.
 So far as the west is concerned no thing that Roosevelt or his adninis traticn has done up to date has brought any relief in pr-ees which the people must pay for the necessitiea Of life Freight rates on me railroads remain the same. except in some ot the states where the local legislatures have passed laws to reduce them One may pretty correctly judge the country by bis own locality. Fstimat- ing the results of the Roosevelt ad. minissration by present conditions in Ariopaz nothing has been accom- plisled for the people. We all under stand that should Rockefeller be com pelied to pay the big fine imposed by Judge Landis that the money would be wrung from the people by an in- crease in the price of oil: Judge Ian dis is to be commended for soaking the Standard on to the limit. bm this should not lessen the blame which should go against the Roosevelt ad- rainistration for failing to recommend xhe real remedy for violation of the

THE PRICE OF COPPER.

THE PRICE OF COPPER.
 The Arizona Republican sizes up the present condition of the copper market in the following editorial:
 When early in the year the decline in the price of copper began, mine owners, that is the small mine owners who were getting rich at the then pre- yailing figures. treasured themselves that there would soon be an upturr; that the situation was being produced by speculators, who. having attained their ends. would remove the pressure from the market.
 More recent developments, howev- CT, make it certain that something much worse than speculative interfer- ence is the matter with the copper market. There is on hand a quarter of a billion pounds more than is needed
 The cause of this great margin be- tween the supply and demand is easi. ly apparent and was apparent long before 1t was generally known that such a margin existed. Several months ago, or last winter, electric construction began to be restricted. Since then little has been done in the way of the construction or extension of electric lighting plants, and street car systems either urban or interur- ban. The latter are great consumers of copper wire and all of them togeth- CT contribute a considerable volume to the demand for copper.
 "The inactivity of electric construc. tion in the cities Is not attributed to the circumstances that there is no demand for such construction but to the prevalent agitation which has talk. en the form of demands for municipal ownership or for the regulation of public utilities. The men who were supplying the money for the improve. ment and extension of such utilities very naturally concluded that it would be well to wait until it could be as, certained whether this agitation was likely to be of an effective character Thus the demand for copper was re duced.
 -The eastern, middle and middle western states had come to be pretty well gridironed with electric interur ban lines. but there was apparently room for more and besides they began to be introduced into the western states. All at once, about the time the legislatures in the frenzy of regu lation got busy, there was a cessation of interurban line building until now it is said to have been practically brought to a standstin.
 "The men who were behind the en, Eterprlses already in operation as well as those in prospect decided to wait ands see. Meanwhile their money would be safer in the banks than in enterprises under the control of ir- responsible legislators.
 "The fall in the price Of copper is one of the signs of depression of which VIC are nearing more and more. This particular symptom can be pret- ty easily traced back to it cause. h the meantime the effect will be widely feIt-in the communities in which such utilities are needed, in the min ing camps where wages are needed. among the prospectors who have promising copper claims and, in fact, pretty generally throughout the coun- |try.
 '.The situation is not so discourag- ing when the cause of it Is known. the rabies of regulation which has swept the country for two years. A good

Chicago Banks All Right

CHICAGO, Oct. 22.-The officials Of the
banks of this city are a unit in declaring
that never in the history of the city have
it's financial institutions been on as sound
Il basis as they are at present. Follow
ing the failure of the Chicago National
bank two years ago, the Chicago Clearing
House association, dissatisfied with the
state and national inspection Of banks,
appointed inspectors of its own at a
salary double that paid by the govern
ment for similar work. The inspectors
bureau has the power to audit banks at
any time, and as consequence all of the
banks know exactly every day the condi-
tion of the other banks.
When a bank demurs to the work of
the auditor it is promptly denied clearing
house facilities. The result has been in
the last two years that number of weak
institutions have been compelled to liqlh-
date and that the banks of this city are
stronger today than they have ever been.
Cashier B. M Chattel of the Illinois
Trust and Savings bank declared today
that there are no weak spots in the banks
of Chicago and there as not only money
here in sufficient quantities, he said, for
the ordinary demands of business but for
the moving of all the grain crops in the
west. Money is as plentiful here as it
ever is at this time of the year.
President Forgan of the First National
bank said: 1.-THE Chicago banks are abso-
lutely sound"

drawing card here. Chase is now located at
San Jose.
Before Piper started out to earn his meal
ticket playing baseball he was an acrobat CT
note He was a member of the famous Nelson
family, which Travelled with Ringing brothers
circus. The Nelson family was rated among
the best tumblers of the country, and Piper
might have been with them yet but for an ac-
cident In which he broke two RIBS. After
smashing in his ribs the little player decided
to adopt another profession and began to play
baseball He is every inch an athlete. In a
1OO-yard race between the players of the coast
league Piper would finish far from last The
little outfelder comes from distinguished
family. His uncle is James X Hackett the
great actor.
Kennedy won medal once for running
around the bases in the fast time of some
thing like 141s seconds Spencer holds no
medals for this work. and some San Fran
cisco fans would wager a few cigars that
Kennedy has nothing the Seals when 1t
comes to sprintng. Why couldn't match
race be held at Recreation park Saturday
afternoon between these two players Here is
an attraction for the management to think
over. There is not player on the Portland
club who won't back Kennedy to beat Spencer
to run around the bases or run straight 100
yards 200 yards.
Zeider will spend the winter in California
and will play Independent ball If there are
any games. Piper has decided to go back
home.

never gets credit Of having anything" COM
planned Oscar Jones. I might shut out a
team without hit or run, and the next day
1 would read Jones didn't have thing, but
he managed to win his game. Sometimes
this sort of talk irritates me, but suppose
/ shouldn't mind as long as win games. OF
course pitcher win game now and then
without having anything. but he can't go far
Batters will get to him sooner or later.
Joe Nelson came back from Pittsburg Mon
