has served on the forestry commission
in the state. In 1894 Tammany nomt-
mated him for mayor, and the nomina-
ton was equivalent to an election.
After considering the matter for two
days Mr.. Straus declined. He has pre-
served his personal independence In
politics and has refused to submit to
party dlctation.
Only Nominal Prices Charged.
In his philanthropic work Mr.. Stratus
has always avoided the appearance os
giving charity, believing that this de-
grades and pauperizes the recipient.
He has insisted on those he helps pay
ing something IL possible. This amount
has always been less than the cost of
the article to Mr.. Straus and has been
insisted on simply to preserve the self
respect Of the recipient. Thus during
the panic of 1893, when 50 many men
were out Of work in New York city and
80 much suffering prevailed among the
poor, Nathan Sraus established coal
supply stations, grocery stores and
sleeping houses throughout the city. He
saw that the people were being robbed
by the small coal dealers who sold In
twenty-five or fifty pound lots. By es-
tablishfng several coal Offices and buy
Ing In immense quantities he was en-
abled to sell the coal to the poor at
about half what they had been paying.
This represented loss to Mr.. Straus,
but relieved the suffering. The same
was true Of his groceries, in which
work he was helped by ]. Pierpont
Morgan and others. The prices charged
were little more than nominal, but the
people still felt that they were paying
for what they got. In the sleeping
houses the men only gave cents a
night or prices as ridiculously small,
but they did not have the sense of re-
ceiying without giving an equivalent,
and SO the great psychological law Of
recompense, which is SO necessary to a
feeling of independence, was not vio-
lated. Later on, when Mr.. Stratus es-
tablished the pasteurized milk depots
In the parks and on the public piers, he
worked on the same principle. The
milk was sold ait a small amount per
bottle or per glass, not nearly enough
/ 10 repay the cost, but still enough to re-
move the sting OF a patronizing chart
fy from those helped. Even then the
price was not insisted on In all cases.
lie mother applied for milk for her

Authors and Speakers Of Ability,

OF these brothers there are two
Hon. Oscar 8. Straus, already men,
toned, and Isidor Straus, almost as
well known, since he has been mem
Der Of congress and prominent In his
opposition to a protective tariff and
free silver. There Is no family in
New York more. thoroughly respected
than the three Stratus brothers. They
belong to that high type of phiian-
thropic Jews of which the world con-
tafns many noble examples. They are
unostentatious, cultured, public spir-
tied, intellectual and given to good
works. All are authors and speakers
Of ability, all have held high public
place, all are capable business men,
and all are objects Of public esteem.
OF the three, Nathan Etraus excels
in works OF philanthropy. He lis rath-
er slight in build. Of nervous, intellec-
tual face, which Is covered by full
beard running to two points. Mr..
Stratus has home of quiet elegance,
loves fast horse and tells good
story on occasion. One tale Of his re-
lates to stableman. One morning
Mr.. Strauss found this man rubbing
the leg OF one Of his trotters with a
spike nail dipped In Iiniment. When
asked what he was doing the man
replied that the directions said to APP
ply the medicine with nail or tooth
brush. i" and as he had no toothbrush
he thought II he had to use d nail be
had better take spike. The stable
man was evidently NOT acquainted
with nailbrushea.
Mr.. Stratus has a sad face, seeming
TO feel the suffering OF ali the unforfsi-
nate. Yet II the saving Of many lives
can give Joy, he should be the happi.
,est man In the world.

had been over ninety In a hundred, he
reduced 1t to twenty. In New York
the year before he began his work
the infant mortality during the FIVE
hot weeks Of July and early August
had been 1861 per LOCO. The next
year, after he began distributing pas
feurized milk, it fell to ITO. a
During ten years he kept up the dis
tPi6ution, and the death rate among
children was still further decreased to
72.1. He began by giving the milk
free to physicians Of the board of
health and those engaged In charita-
bic work. Then he started erecting
booths In the parks In this he was
opposed by many officials and at first
had little encouragement from any
source. He spersevered, however, ex-
tending the work to Philadelphia, Chi
cage and other cities. and the press
began to comment favorably ON his
efforts. 1t was the writer's fortune to
be an editorial writer on one Of the
New York dailies during Mr.. Strauss
crusade and to assist In small way
by writing many editorials In his be-
half. / remember that at the begin
ming Of one summer Mr.. Stratus had
Eve pasteurized milk depots ready to
open in various parks of the city. He
offered to supply any number of addi-
tional booths that the city would erect
with pasteurized milk free of cost ex-
cept the nominal charges to patrons.
The appropriation required was only
the trifing sum of $4,000, and yet
the officials were SO slow that even this
niggardly amount was not forthcoming
Mr.. Stratus then erected twelve more
booths himself. making seventeen In

He had 6 similar experience in some
European cities. OF one Of these he
said in an interview:

system in the town of Lille, France,

INCREASE OF PENSIONS.
Roll for 1908 Will Show an Advance of
Several Millions.

Washington, D. c., Jan. 2S.-Repre,
sentative Keifer of Ohio, chairman of
the subcommittee on pensions of the
house committee on appropriations, to,
day announced informally that that
committee has agreed to recommend
the pensions roll of $3.50, OOO, 900 for
the fiscal year ending June 80, 1909.
This will be about 81, 900 900 in ex-
cess of the pension roll of the present
fiscal year. The increase is largely
due to the provisions of the McCum-
Der bill, effective in February, 1907,
by which the enlargement of pensions
in accordance with age and the abol-
ishment of physical examination as a
prerequisite to the establishment of
pension claims on account of physical
disability were brought out. Chair.
man Keifer has addressed a letter each
to the secretary of the interior and
commissioner of pensions, inviting
them to appear next Monday morning
before the subcommittee on pensions
and support the recommendation made
by them that the number of pension
agencies in the United States be re-
duced to one only at Washington.

Special to The Republican
New York, Jan. 2S.-The weekly
financial letter of Henry Clews & Co..
takes a somewhat optimistic view Of
financial and commercial conditions
throughout the country, the following
being extracts from the letter just is
sued:
Pronounced Ease in Money.
The late panic, like its predecessors,
is being succeeded by a period of pro-
nounced ease in money. This is a con.
dition which always follows such fnan-
cial upheavals as we have recently
sums locked up in speculative ventures
are released; both speculation and bus
mess contract; credit is %curtailed, and
declining prices for securities and com
modities have the effect of practically
increasing the supply of available
funds. This tendency toward easier
rates is worldwide. The Bank of Eng.
land once more reduced its rate, this
time from 5 to 4 per cent and the Bank
of France from 3k to 3 per cent TO
conform to the lower rates of the open
market. 1t. is expected that the Bank
Of Germany will shortly follow suit,
leaving rates at that center relatively
higher than elsewhere, owing to re-
cent strained conditions in the Berlin
market.
Decline in Interest Rates.
The decline in interest rates in the
United States has naturally been much
more PERCEPTIONS than abroad, for the
eason that in the last three months OF
1907 the rates here we're abnormally
high. Everything points to continued
easy rates in the American money mar
kets; not only on account of ~lessened
demand, but also because of the ex'
traordinary expansion which has re
Gently taken place in our circulation.
Enormous Expansion.
Between the two bank calls Of Au.
gust % and December 3, a period OF
about fifteen weeks, it is estimated
that there was an expansion of nearly
s275, 000, 900 in our circulating medium
made up of about $4,000 900 in bank
notes, SIS, 1000, 900 clearing house Ger
tiicates, s73,0 0O, 900 of additional gov
eminent deposits and SIS, O00, 900 in
gold imports. This is certainly not an
overestimate of the relief extended
during the panic; for the total amount
of clearing house certificates issued
In various cities was considerably
above the amount mentioned and the
entire gold import movement amount
ed to nearly 500, 600, 900. 1t is bu'
proper to remember, however, thai
some of these items in the relief &C
count are being rapidly reduced.
Remarkable Rebound.
On January 4 the local bank reserve.
showed a deficit of $11, 500, 900. Or
