the Monopolists.
One Of the best speeches yet de-
livered in the Senate against the
tariff bill was made by Senator Dol
liver, Republican, from Iowa, a few
days ago. Commencing the course
of his colleague in his attack upon
the pending tariff bill, Senator Cum
Minis, also a Republican, Thursday
in opening his speech upon that
measure, turned to Mr.. Aldrich and
said that the man who challenged
the Republicanism Of Senators be-
cause they seek to revise the sched-
ule of duties 40 years old was taking
most remarkable course.
Mr. Cummins secuted the idea
that adherence to the wool schedule
was necessary in order to maintain
the protective principle. He said ne
had been one of the Republicans who
had fought for a revision of the
! tariff
"And I intend to defend my
faith" he continued, with all the
vigor of which I am capable
'tThe finance committee, compos-
ed of honorable, intelligent, bright
minded and experienced men, is still
not the ark and the covenant Of Re-
publican doctrine. It Us not the
only repository Of Republican faith. -
Not a single member of that COM
mittee. he said, had been among
those Republicans who had demand
ed a revision Of the Dingley bill
They did not believe revision was
necessary and it was no wonder that
they should not now favor changes
in duties.
Senator Owen interrupted while
Mr. Cummins was stating that he
had had special opportunities for un'
derstanding the affairs OF the Ameri.
can Steel and Wire Company with
an inquiry as to how he had acQuir.
ed such special information.
'tI was attorney for the company
replied the Iowan.
Mr.. Scott inquired whether the
senator had received his fee as al
| torney in money or in stock.
eff I had lived in West Virginia,
responded Mr. Cummins, "and hal
been surrounded with the influence!
prevalent there, I fear would be
ashamed to answer But as I live
in Iowa where there is an homes
atmosphere, can reply that my pa!
was in cash, ard I had nothing what
ever to do with the capital stock is
sued by that company"
Responding to a question by Mt
Depew, Mr.. Cummins said that h
had not ventured to look forward
"to that disastrous day in which tn,
industries of the United States and o
the world are concentrated in
single hand or a single board of di
rectors." When, he said, the da.
should dawn that a single man shall
direct the energies of the earth AM
control the fortunes of mankind 81
far as manufactures are concerned
"there will still remain the LAM
posts and the common people. if tn
law has failed, in order that tn
country be rid Of those monopolist
who coerce the whole world"

ENGLISH CUTTERS.
Australian Criticism of English Tennis Association.

New York. July IA dispatch from Sydney, Australia, says: The action of the English Lawn Tennis assoeia- ton in accepting American's guaran- tee of R4o0 for the preliminary round of the Davis lawn tennis cup compe- tition to be played in that country has been bitterly criticised here. and the refusal to offer America a guarantee for the match, to be played at Vim bledon is described as parsimonious,
 The Americans came over here without guarantee for the last con- tests and received z 800. The Eng fish Lawn Tennis association does not appear to recognize the pecuniary pos abilities of a tour in Australia by a class team. Such a tour, so far from resulting in a loss, would probably put the English body on sound if nancial basis. The attitude of the as sociation practically amounts to with drawal from the Davis cup competi- tion."

THE COLORADO FAIR

Exhibits From This Territory Are Wanted.

Denver. July 11.-(SpeciaL)- second annual interstate fair and ex- position, which will be held the third week in September at Overland park, Denver, is just as much of an Arizona proposition as Colorado affair. Such is the emphatic statement of Presi- dent John w. Springer of the asso citation. Say President Springer;
 "The scope of the inter state fair and exposition is very broad Its aim is to encourage industry of all kinds not only in Colorado but in neighbor ing states and territories. We believe that the best way to upbuild the va rious industries of the inter mountain region and the Missouri valley is by comparison and competition on fair and friendly field. such as is afforded by the inter state fair. Not only are exhibits from Arizona welcome, but we are especially anxious to have that great state worthily represented in ev- cry department Secretary G. c. Full Ter, who has charge of the details, is doing everything in his power to make representation pleasant and profitable for Arizona exhibitors. We have se- cured especially liberal passenger and freight rates, and Secretary Fuller has arranged an unusually attractive en- tertainment program. including musi- cal festivals.

The run to- day is 5000 cattle, market steady The supply today is liberal and the market is satisfactory Stockers are selling at $S.75 to $5.35, and feeders range from $4.50 to $5.60, embracing all grades.
 The sheep trade has been the scene of some wild fluctuations in-the last ten days, caused mainly by the apr pearance of grass sheep from the northwest at the northern markets, and the determination of buyers to open the seasons market on them at a low figure. $4-50 for wether and s for yearlings was the ultimatum of buyers the first of last week, but the situation has improved since, the mar ket is stronger with a run of 1000 head. The supply has been small, but outside influences forced dealers here to recognize them to a certain extent. Spring lambs sold at SS35, Arizona springs last week at $S25, some med ium class Texas muttons today at $4.25, yearlings worth up to $525, and best killing ewes S4.50. althoug fancy breeding ewes would exceed that fig ure. Goats sell at s2.75 to $3.60.

The Heavy Registration For Indian
 Lands in the North.

Spokane, Wash, July 11-"If We compare the number of claims to be entered with the number of persons who will register for Indian lands in the Flathead. Occur d'Alene and Spo- kane reservations, July 15 to August 5. the chance for getting a homestead is about one in 100. I have prepared for 100000 registrations at each of the three reservations, where there are probably not more than 5000 claims to be distributed"
 James w. Written, superintendent of the opening and sale of government lands, said this on his arrival in SpO- kane, after looking over the F1athead reservation in western Montana. He will also visit the Occur d'Alene re- serve in northern Idaho and the Spo- kane in eastern Washington. after ward going to Occur dAlene, where he will make Headquarters from July IA to August 20. The drawing for the three reservations will begin at Occur d'Alene on August 9 and con tinue until all the lands set aside are distributed by the government lot tery plan.
 We nave TtCtlNtu al W Noiis D. C., an average of 5000 letters day since June 1,'' said MT. Written, and these cover all parts of the United States, Canada and Mexico. There will be ithousandssiof others between now and the beginning of registration. Many of the inquiries are from east ern and southern states, with the bulk from the middle western and northwestern and Pacific coast states.
 This is the first occasion on which the government has thrown open more than one reservation at a time. Prob ably the chief reason for this is that the lands are so far west the govern ment decided to run them off simdl- taneously so that eastern people who intend to apply could rgister for all on one trip"

KANSAS CITY MARKETS.

Kansas City, July 1.-The cattle market last week developed strong demand for light steers. yearlings and butcher grades. and a gain of 10 to 15 cents for the week was made by these classes, but heavy steers were draggy, and moved at a reduction of 10 cents for the week. The total cattle supply for the week was 45,000 head, but fully half the receipts were from below the quarantine line, from which terri
 tory grass cattle are now moving as rapidly as it is possible for owners to get them out. The supply from the southwest and west last week was confined to small shipments of mixed cattle from Colorado and Arizona, con sisting mostly of stock cows and heif- CTS at s2.50 to $3.75. A large string of Oklahoma stockers and feeders sold at $4.90, and grass beef steers are moving from southern Kansas. and selling at $5.75 to S6.35 for weights around 1900 pounds.
