WAGES IN RUSSIA.

CONSUL James W. Ragsdale writes
+ from st. Petersburg that as Russia
/ is an agricultural country IL is inter
esting 10 trace the tlnctation in prices
of labor. which, like everything there
during the last ten years, shows q
progressive tendency to increase. The
consul presents the following com
parative statistics:
Thus in 1904. the daily pay of a
laborer during the period of housing
crops increased. as compared with
the average pay from 1882 to 1891,
throughout European Russia, from
50 to SO kopecks 100 kopecks-1
ruble-51.5 cents.D or II per cent,
except in the following eight
provinces. in which the prices have
fallen: Pskov. 3 per cent; Kiey, 4
per cent; Don region, per cent;
Olontzk, 0 per cent; Podolsk, % per
cent: Kherson, IS per cent, and
Bessarabia. 40 per cent.
Comparing the figures of 1906
(the data for 1907 not yet being pub
lished) it is seen that the prices have
risen from sc to 10 kopeeks, or by
Il per cent, except the Samara. Sar-
atov, Simbirsk, Kazan, Ufa. Oren-
burg. Penza and Tambov provinces,
where prices have fallen on an ay-
erage from ) 10 10 per cent.
Wages are lowest in the east
where laborer receives from As
to 80 kopecks a day. The highest
pay received is in the steppe region
where it is from 20 kopecks to y
rubles a day, fluctuating in the other
Russian provinces. This amount
covers a man labor and board, the
latter being calculated at 10 to 20
kopecks a day The net income of
laborer in European Russia
amounts, on the average. 10 60 ko-
peeks a day.
The amount of wages paid to wo-
men fiuetuates from 35 To IS ko-
peeks a day, or from three-fifths to
two thirds of the amount paid to
men. In Asiatic Russia the highest
wage is paid in maritime provinces.
where a laborer gets from 3 IL to 4
rubles a day.-Consula Report.

a NOVEL INSURANCE DECISION

An unusual case has just been de-
cided by the United States court of
appeals. sitting at Lynchburg, Va,
whereby the Northwestern Life Inc
surfance Co. is forced to pay life
insurance premium of $4,000 for a
man executed at Charlottesville, Va,
for murder
The case has many novel features
and will doubtless he referred to for
years to come in legal manuals. The
plaintiff was the executor of ]. Sam
uel McCue. of Charlottesville, mayor
of that city. who killed his wife in
February. 1905. For that crime he
was tried in the Virginia courts,
found guilty, sentenced to death and
duly executed.
After the execution it developed
that in March, 1904. or IL months
before the commission OF the crime
for which McCue was executed, he
took out a ten year renewal life in
surance policy for $4,000 with the
Northwestern Co. McCue did not
pay any cash down but gave an IS
months note for the first premium,
it being stipulated that the company
should be exempt from all liabilities
until that note was paid.
Eight days before the note fell due
and some months after the murder
had been committed, McCue was ar
rested and lodged in the Charlottes-
vile Jail. Up to this time he had
taken no steps toward paying the
premium. but three days after his
incarceration he rendered payment of
the note. The company refused to
accept the money and thereupon il
was deposited at a local bank to the
companys credit
Time passed and MeCue was tried.
convicted and executed. His execu-
tor and legal heir thereupon sued the
company for the full $4,000 of the
policy The case was first tried in
the district court of appeals at Lynch
burg and the court there threw out
the case, holding that the whole

CHANGES IN THE SENATE.

President-eect Taft will find when
he gets TO Washington that no other
things are in his favor beyond a Re-
publican majority in the lower house
of congress.
The senate is, of course, heavily
Republican. and would have remain
ed Republican even If Mr.. Bryan had
been elected president, but it is APP
parent that IA change is coming in
that body and that the old cabal,
which ruled the senate for so many
years is losing its grip.
The victory of Governor Cummins
in Iowa was one of the best fruits of
Tuesdays election. Mr.. Cummins
belongs distinctly 10 the liberal and
progressive wing of the Republican
party. He succeeds the late Senator
Allison. who. although man of UNI
doubted ability. belonged TO the old
regime and in the last years of his
life contented himself with a policy
of timid inaction. Governor Cum
Minis was fiercely opposed by the re-
dictionaries in Iowa and by all the
enemies of Taft and Roosevelt, but
he won a fine victory in the state Re-
publican primary
Another distinct gain will be the
elimination of Mr. Foraker as senior
senator from Ohio which now seems
certain, and the probable elimination
two years hence of Senator Dick of
the same state. A number of candi-
dates have developed in Ohio, but
the strongest man seems to be Con-
gresham r. E. Burton, of Cleveland,
who has opposed the Foraker ma
chine for a number of years.
Senator Plat, of course, goes by
the board in New ork Senator Long,
another Republican reactionary and
an adherent of the Aldrieh clique,
has been beaten in Kansas by Mr..
man of the Cummins type.
Senator Ankeny has met deserved de-
feat in Washington, and now it is
reported that Senator Aldrich him.
self will retire voluntarily from the
senate at the expiration of his term,
two years hence.

transaction after MeCue's arrest was
Illegal and that, moreover. it was
against public policy to pay over in
surance money to the heir of a man
executed for heinous crime. The
case was taken to the circuit court of
appeals and the judgment of the
lower court is reversed, Judge Wad-
dill dissenting. and the company is
directed to pay over to the executor
the 5000 with interest. An at
tempt will be made to take the case
to the supreme court, but some doubt
is felt If that court will assume iuris-
diction.
The striking feature in this case is
that it is not jury swayed by preju-
dice which has decided against the
insurance company but United
states court. The case is also re-
markable because of its unique feat
ures. If the judgment is allowed to
stand il will not take away from
the general opinion that the decision
of the lower court was right and not
that of the higher tribunal.

BANQUET AND DANCE.
Given by the Beavers at BreWton
 Thursday Nnght.

Brewton, May 29.-(Special.) )-One of the most elaborate social events of the sea- son was the banquet of the Beavers, given at the institute last evening" Twenty-six couples participated in the banquet and the dance that followed.

Rankin, Andalusia; Miss Wilse Robson, Evergreen; Mrs. DeBar- delaben Montgomery; Miss Navolou Mar tn, Harrington.
 The president of the dam, Dr. w. A. Lovett. in his usual felicitous manner officiated as arbiter of the feast, and proposed many toasts which were re- sponded to very aptly and appropriately by those called upon to speak.
 At the conclusion of the banquet dances were indulged in until ? o'clock Delightful punch was served by bevy of young ladies during the progress of the dances
 The Beavers expect soon to have their own home and club rooms, and this Is but one of the many social events that are expected to be given under the auspices of this organization during the coming month.

Financier's Review.

New York, May 2s.-The Financier this week says:
 As has been anticipated the banks showed material loss in cash, owing to the repayment to the treasury of SS.- 679,OOO of public deposits and the continued exports of gold. The losses named, how ever, were partially offset by receipts from the interior, which continue in al most unabated volume. The full effect of the decrease in cash was not reflected m the surplus reserve item as deposits owing to the cash loss being decreased SIP 83O 900. thus lowering the cash reserve reou1re- ments by something over sa,OOO,OOO. In spite of the continued activity on the stock exchange loans were decreased s1, All, ,4O0 The summary of state banks and trust companies in Greater New York not re- porting to the New York clearing house indicated a gain of s5,3 300 in loans an increase of s2,5O00O0 in cash and an ex- pension of $S299, 100 in net deposits. The present excess reserve of the New York city clearing house banks is $46, ,2S2, ,95O or a percentage of 2S.5S. The percentage reserve of the state banks is 25. fl and of the trust companies B 25. The banks at present are carrying only s19,S70, 300 of public deposits, a decrease of 56 million as compared with public deposits report ed the first of the year. The present gold export movement is running well upward of $4O,OOOOOO, so that the banks of New York city have lost, through the two causes mentioned, nearly 100 millions of cash since the opening of 1908.
