COSTOF REPUBLICAN JINGOISM

/ That the Republican party cares
nothing for the people vino pay the
tayGs-for those vino do the work which
produces the rcvenue which cares for
Uncle Sans government, is evidenced by
the II i'll which they dispose of the
peoples money i'll congress. 1t is the
peoples money. 1t is true that their
representatives spend it-but that is no
sign that they should throw ii away or
dispose of it Us If it were II mere chattcl.
Even Republican senators those who
arc alive to the situation and can see
the breakers ahead. are recognizing the
seriousness of the present time and cal
ling for Il halt-thc same call that the
Democratic representatives have been
sounding for months past. Extrava.
gancc will not dot never did-it will
wreck Il person, Il firm. Il corporation OF
Il state or nation.
Senator Hale, a Republican whose Re
p"ublicanism is of the first water. in tho
debate Oh the naval appropriation bill in
the senate based an impressive if futile
warming on the repid increase in the
military expenditures Of the government
at Il time when its are steadily
falling. Last year. when there was Il
treasury deficit of $50, 900. 900. for the
navy alone congress appropriated SIZE,
900, 900 in M year. This year. when
the deficit promises torcacli Sl35, 600. O0C
congress is about 10 appropriate for the
navy $l37, OOO. 900, III increase of SO.
600, 900.
Next year, Senator Hale predicts, the
navy will cost $3.50. 600. 900 and in 1911
probably 500, O0O, 900. This means"
he concludes. ''tIatii will sOOn he the
unacceptable duty of congress either to
borrow money or greatly to Increase the
taxes ,F 49,.
Of course, the iingocs will resent
Senator Hals's carpiug economy. For
in pointing out the plain consequences
Of needless extravaganza the chairman
of the senate committee on naval affairs
was doing what Mr.. Roosevelt has dc.
scribed rs ''iiampcring us in the M.
building Of the navy and acting against
the real advocates Of the navy" Did
hc not admit that it was mighty hard
work lust year to prevent the
authorization Of four of the new
battlcships, acau>c to which Mr.. Roosc.
yclt devoted pages of burning rhetoric
in Il special message to congress. full Of
mysterious hints of foreign compiled.
tiOns?
Indeed, has not the senate ITSELF n
loading the bill with an amendment ad.
"ising the equal division Of the fleet b..
tween the Atlantic and the Pacific.
llaycd into the hands of the iingocs and
the enemies Of the naval economy
Tho eight years Of president RDoso.

ing expenditures for the navy. For
that period the appropriations will
amonnt to 1863, O0O. 900. rs compared
with sIoi, 900, 900, for the preceding
eight years, including the extraordinary
expenses of the wal with Spain. Tho

NEW YORK CENTRAL FEATURE
Break i1 Prices in Afternoon Il Led
by Drop iR AmaIEamated-FFic of
Copper Metal Declines Abroad.
Heavy Buying of InterbOreugh-
metropolitan Bonds Renewed.

New York. Jan K.-There we're few
developments OF importance to-day in
either actual business or financial reia-
tons. or in the stock market itself. The
stock market was stronger in the morn
ing under a seeming continuation Of Sat
urcays buying power, but the upward
movement pRtered out after the middle OF
The DAY. aid later on vas transformed
INTO a decline, which not only wiped out
the early gains. but substituted recessions
al The close IN most or the standard
shares
In the morning hours Of business the
feature OF the market was a sharp rise
in New York Central stock. based ap-
parently upon renewed rumOrs, which
assumed q fantastic form over Sunday
concerning the assumption by the Harri-
man interest Of a larger share Of control
over the New York Central property.
other particularly strong stocks IN the
early part OF the day were Norfolk and
Western, Chesapeake and Ohio. Peilnsyl-
vania, Southern Pacific, and United
States Steel common
Railroad Combine RumcFed.
In the case Of Pennsylvania. Chesapeake
and Ohio. and Norfolk and Western. an
impression that closer relations between
these three concerns are contemplated
has been responsible for more OF less
speculative buying of stock in rtcent
weeks. but there were no occurrences to-
day to remove this impression any further
from the domain OF vague rum0r than
the place II has hitherto occupied
It was semi-Ofhcially stated that the
Kansas City Southern Railway Company
had made a traffic agreement with both
the Union Pacific and Southern Pacific
companies. by means OF which the two
Hartman lines were placed in connection
al the Gulf Of Mexico The arrangement
is one which 1t is estimated VIII greatly
increase the earnings Of the Kansas City
Southern Company, and il is undoubtedly
because Of this plan, which has been some
time in maturing and 70 which general
reference has been made in this column
that the recent strength Of the Kansas
City Southern common and preferred
stocks has been due.
Copper Heavy All Day.
In the bond market to-day the most
striking event was a starting up again
OF large buying OF InterboroUgh-Metro-
pOliIan ~ per cents The faH in the
general security market in the afternoon
was led by a break in Amalgamated
Copper stocks. which had been notably
heavy from the beginning OF the day. The
osteusibis reason for this was a note
worthy decline in the price OF copper
metal abroad. which was accompanied
BY lesser fail here. and BY the pub
hcatiOa OF statistics which showed. or
puTpOTted 10 show. that a considerable
heaping I'D OF unsold copper had taken
place in the world markets
Money rates to-day were without quot
able change nor was there any fiuctua-
ton OF significance IN the price Of ster-
