The Pennsylvania Surprise.

Just when the Interstate Commerce
Commission adjourned for few weeks,
and Wall Street expected a short breath
ing SPELL there came out the announce
ment that the Pennsylvania road at the
next stockholders meeting intends to in
crease its capitalization to the extent Of
5000, 900, 600. This surprise was the
greater, as the late President Cassatt
had declared few months ago that the
Pennsylvania was through with its fnan-
ciering. The road had lust raised It's
dividend from six per cent. to seven per
cent. Everybody expected that it's capt.
tai needs were satisfied for at least a
year or so. If the Pennsylvania alone
would come forward with new capital
needs. 1t would not have such an effect
but the fear is prevailing that all other
railroads will soon tax the money market
by additional stock issues. This on top
of the enormous new bond and stock
issues announced last year, of which the
Southern Railway will issue 5000. 900 900.
the Wabash, 5000, 600 900; the st. Paul,
100000 900; the Northern Pacific. $685.
100000; the Great Northern, 10000 900,
and so on. Where will. in view of the
enormous demands Of the business world
for funds, all this money come from? The
fear is prevailing that we will soon run
ties, and what the outcome of such con-
ditions Is, the experience Of 1893 has
shown. Notwithstanding all this. Wall
Street hopes that ere long better days
and prices will follow, even IL the change
has to come through drive against the
constantly growing short interest which
in expectation OF further new bad It'd
ings, Keeps on selling stocks. which 1t
does not own, expecting to buy back
cheaper later.
Hopes for Mild Bull Campaign.
This month will bring the annual state
ment of the steel trust. which will
probably show an enormous business, the
greatest in the history of the corpora
ton. 1t may show a yearly business
amounting TO 152,OuO.0O0 and untitled or
ders on hand sufficient to keep tho mills
busy for the greater part of the year.
Then there will be the quarterly meeting
of the Amalgamated Copper Company. OF
which a higher dividend and an amazing
statement of prosperity is expected. An
other Misunderstanding influence is
the statements OF railroad earnings,
which. In view of tho increased wages
and Increased cost Of everything, fail to
show significant decreases. The mild
winter has so far turned out a blessing
for the railroads. as It has enabled them
to Keep down expenses On all this Wall
Street bases its hope that the bull move
ment, which used to set in in the early
part of year, will yet take place some
of these days But even the most san
gune bull does not hope for great
year and booming markets until the
country can learn what kind of crops
this year is going to bring.

Position Of Primary Markets.

Late in the; week there was rather
more hrmness, as sellers We're somewhat
timid, which was attributable mainly to
continued small receipts at primary
points. The meagre arrivals in the
Northwest are, however. partly caused
by the recent heavy snowfall, particularly
in North Dakota, which has greatly him
dered railway traffic, it being difficult at
times to move freight. Buying was ac-
celebrated occasionally by the colder
weather in winter wheat territory, as
we'll as further north. Because there is
yet little snow protection, sellers for the
decline are somewhat fearful that tho
growing plant may deteriorate, but ex-
perienced dealers feel that there is little
reason for alarm on this score as long as
the weather remains uniformly Coo.
SHOULD there be alternate thawing and
freezing, more concern might be Justified.
Little Speculation in Corn.
4 In the speculative corn market opera
tons have been inactive, and the varia-
tons unimportant as rule, In the main
a firmer feeling was noticeable, which
was ascr!bed partly to stronger cables

weeks at Northwestern country stations

cause of the scarcity of cars. Conse-
auently. 1t was natural TO suppose that
deterioration would occur.
Effect of Climatic Conditions.
Buying was accelerated In part by the
unseasonably mild weather In winter
wheat territory. while 1t was exceedingly
cold not only in Manitoba, but also in
Minnesota and North Dakota. where the
mercury fell below zero. 1t was thought
that If the cold weather should spread
further South 1t might create uneasiness
respecting the growing winter wheat
plant Subsequently, the edge of tho cold
wave reached winter wheat territory, and
the mercury suddenly dropped about forty
or fifty degrees in few hours, or from
almost sumn- heat to winter tempera-
ture. Natural y, this was considered I'M
fortunate, because the plant was. as
rule, unprotected by snow. While many
traders do not believe that the cold wealth.
realize that it could do no good, and
would frighten sellers for the decline.
Buoyancy was caused by slightly
stronger cable advices. 1t was asserted
that European markets were influenced
partly by the great famine prevailing
in China, where millions of people are,
it is alleged. suffering from lack of food.
Assuming that cable reports are even
partially true, it is presumable that i'm
portant quantities of food-stuffs may be
shipped to China from other countries.
Many merchants incline to the opinion
that Europe will have to loolsN to this
country for fairly large quantities Of
wheat in the near future, as there Is
little wheat offered by other producing
countries. with the exception of Argen-

paralyzed Che great operations Of supplying the daily wants and needs of eighty millions of people. That is the intoiefable condition. And it is Co avoid such conditions that governments have been cree ated and sustained among civilized men. In fact if such conditions could be protracted there would be a reversion to barbarism.
 In this particular instance the problem seems what shall be the course of governmental in settling the present difficulty and in prevent ing its recurrence. Some say com pulsory arbitration by the govern ment. Others advocate govern ment ownership of the telegraphs. In either event the doctrine of lajs8e- toire-letting affairs go their own way-vanishes into thin air.

SOMEWHAT mystifying is it to read an editorial reprinted in a northern Arizona newspaper cred tied to the Arizona Democrat at Phoenix, and to read on the same day in a Graham county paper the same editorial reprinted from the Bisbee Review, while yet an other newspaper will credit the same article to the Douglas Inter- national-American, with yet a fourth newspaper crediting to the Arizona Star the same screed. But it seems simple enough when it Is recalled that those four are the Copper Queen "Skindicate" of newspapers; and one knows that the same editorial stuff" is doing quadruple duty. And 1t all ema- mates from the teeming intellect and lively imagination of George H. Kelly. Bully for the Kellys. They have made the Copper Queen butter their bread upon both sides.

More for the Fool Correspondent.

Recently a rowing band of four or five Yaquis have committed number of depredations in the vicinity of Minas Prietas, and have filled again the entire countryside with alarm. About two weeks ago they shot a boy about fifteen years of age who was travelling from Minas Prietas to La Lapiz. One bullet passed through his right lung, and the other made a flesh wound in the left side, the bullet glancing on rib. The boy Is in the hospital at La Colorado. Thurs day morning of last week uaquero employed by Negro Gutierrez was killed near Chivato, on the road to La Colorado, only four miles dis tant; and Saturday morning in- formation was received at La Colo rada and Minas Prietas that the preceding evening they had shot a man and woman at Cabaf1is, a ranche near San Jose de Pimas. Here's another opportunity for the feeble minded Nogales correspond ent of the Arizona Republican to distinguish himself by informing the readers of that excellent journal of the great disgust" felt in Noga- les at publication of such reports.

"LhIsSEz FARE"

given to advocates of public owner ship of public utilities a powerful argument in support of their doc- Urine, is bringing rapidly to accept ance of their proposition the great business public of the nation, and is, moreover, strong object lesson in opposition to that school of pol itical economy that insists that the natural course of events is the best that the government should not interfere between conflicting in- terests except to preserve order and punish violence. But the close ly intervening of all the business interests of the people with the colossal system of speedy commun- ication that has developed and the necessity for keeping that sys- tenn in all of its ramifcations in continual operation, without which there come swiftly and inexorably complete paralysis and tremendous losses, together with the inevitable tendency to friction between capi- tai and labor when their joint operations are such that the two maintain no longer the close and confidential relation of master and servant such as prevailed in pre- ceding generations-all these have developed condition ih which there must be some power to pre- vent evils like the present, so wide spread, so far reaching and so dis astrous.
 Upon both sides in the great con- troversy there seem strong reasons for the position taken. Capital feels and says outright that it must con- trol the details of its own opera tions, and that to be obliged to submit to continual interference therein by self appointed commit tees from among it's employees will spell ruin eventually. Upon the other side Labor asserts most vehe . mently and with justice that the exactions of Capital are unendur- able, and if persisted in unprotest- ed will have a tendency to subject workingmen and women to con ditiOn but little better than slavery. (Right among the demands of the striking telegraphers there are shown number of such exacticns that they justly assert must be abandoned by the company, one of which-that will suffice for H. lustration-is the compulsion of the operator to supply the type writer he uses in doing his work. With as much right could a rail- way require each locomotive engi- neer to supply the locomotive he runs over its tracks.) But while these burning issues between em- ployer and employe are being fought out all the business of the country is brought to standstill.

of less than one-tenth of an ounce.
 The greatest secrecy has hitherto been maintained in these experiments, fl being the desire of Dr. Duncan Mac DougaL of Haverhill, to give no pub licity to the facts until they were es- tablished beyond all shadow of doubt.
 It was a surprise to Dr. Mac Dougall that this discovery should be known outside the Research club, but he re luctantly consented to give an inter- view on the subject. He is neither a believer in spiritualism nor myster- ious psychological phenomena, except as they can be dealt with by science, and he preIudes his statement with the declaration that his experiments were made purely with the idea of es- tablishing scientific facts.
 Doctors Statement.
 During my practice among hospi- tai patients. while at the bedside of dying patients. my curiosity <was aroused as to whether there might be some material change discoverable by actual tests that would throw a new light upon the mystery of the flight ,'of life.
 When a person dies, the current belief is that his spirit or soul con tinues to live. My first thought was: Has continued consciousness and per sonaI individuality an existence2 Can it exist in space as nothing?
 Tt is known as a force, as per sonality, real and actual. It must be space-occupying body. With that granted, the next question was: Has 1t weight? Is it graviated matter or some other form of unknown defini' tion? Forwith I began my experi' ments.
 Four other physicians under my al rection made the first test upon a patient dying of tuberculosis. We placed him, few hours before death on a scale platform which I had con structed, and which was delicately balanced. The instant life ceased, the opposite scale pan fell with a sudden ness that was astonishing, as if some thing had been suddenly lifted from the body.
 Immediately. sll the usual deduc tions were made for physical loss oi weight, and it was discovered that there was still full ounce of weight funaccounted for" sz

GEMEHLESIRUCk HANNA UNDER
 PROvOCAT|0N
Injured Man lnSulted His As sailant Repeatedly Before He Was Finally Hit By Blow From Fist.

IL is now learned that the man who struck R. H. Hanna on Tuesday night last is Bert Gemehle. Gemehie comes 1 forward with this statement himself
 and claims that Hanna repeatedly in suited him and followed him about in order 10 apply his gross epithets to the man who finally resented and struck iE fit of provoked anger. Hanna stili lies in a critical condi- tion at the c. & A. hospital. His con dition was slightly improved yesterday and he seems to be holding his own, but 1t is feared that 8 cerebral hemorr- haze may at any time take him of. Gemehle, who was summoned as a witness in the case now pending against William Tate for the alleged assault on Hanna, is out on $500 bonds. No charge has as yet been preferred against Gemehie, nor is it likely that there will be until the close of the case against Tate.
 Gemehle's version of the affair is that Hanna. then unknown to him, approached him on the street in front of the Maze saloon shortly after mid night Tuesday and began by calling Gemehle a "scab." To this epithet Gemehle made little reply, merely re.
 marking that the speaker must be mis- taken. Hanna. so Gemehle states,
 then repeated the insult. adding to it 8 vile epithet refiecting on Gemehle's birth.
 Not until then did Gemehie warn | Hanna that he had gone too. far. Gene hle then claims to have walked away from the spot. but Hanna followed l him, cursing him with every step and again calling him a "scab.' IL was then that Gemehle struck. out. with his | fist. felling Hanna to the sidewalk
 where he lay apparently supplied.
 Bert Gemehle has resided In Bis l bee for nun3er Or years. For some time he was brakeman in the em- ploy of the Southwestern, afterward
 becoming yard foreman here. Later i he engaged in the plumbing business with William Bywater. or late years
 he has been giving his attention to
 some mining property which he owns Gemehle bears the reputation of being a quiet, inoffensive and law-abidine
 citizen. and his striking of Hanna is l looked upon bv his acnuaintances as
 sufficient proof that he had just cause | for his action.
 ! Gemehle's testimony will. in ali prob 1 ability. serve to clear Tate of any blame for Hanna's death should the | injured man succumb to his hurts.
 There is little hope held out by the lphysicisns in charge of the case. il
 being plain to them that he is suffer ing from basal fracture of the skull | with eoncussion of the brain. H.
 seemed rational enough at times yes terdav! but made no statement whicf would tend to throw any further hgh
 on the case than the one In which he named Tate as the man who was re
 sponsibIe for his condition
