THE WOOL MARKET


The prediction made that the wool
market would improve soon after the
adjournment of congress has been rea-
lized. AS the depression was purely
artificial, the only cause that could be
assigned for this abnormal condition
was the agitation in congress for a re-
duction in the wool tariff, and this was
undoubtedly the true reason for the
weakness of the market during the
early summer.
In summarizing the present market
conditions of the product, Justice,
Bateman & Co., Philadelphia wool mer-
chants, nave the following to say IN
their weekly circular:
The London Wool Auctions, when
have been an important factor IN IN
proving the wool situation in the Unit
ed States, closed on the 26th ult, Win
prices which, from start to finish, were
always against buyers.
Machinery in Europe being amply
supplied with orders for sometime to
come. indicates a healthy condition OF
the trade, whose necessities seem like
" to prevent any decline from present
values there, although prices are recog-
nized as the highest for years.
The most valuable feature of the res
cent London Wool Sales was in the fact
that it gave a new basis for trading in
the United States. Australia woods,
which could not be Immediately sold
here, were freely re-shipped to London,
where they were keenly competed for.
This outlet for foreign wool at high
er prices in Europe than could be OBJ
tanned here, has led to negotiations for
further shipments to London to be sold
at private sale if possible between now
and the next series, and in the event
Of their failing to obtain satisfactory
prices, they are to be put up at the
September auctions, when it is believ-
ed the scarcity Of choice wool abroad
will be wen more acute than ia the
last sale.
Some American holders are arrang-
ing to consign their entire holdings of
Australian wool to London, and also
their South Americans.
The imports into the United States
of South American woods last year were
not 80 large as usual; but ever this re-
duced quantity is likely now to find
a better market abroad than in the
United States.
This expanding movement of Ameri-
can owned Australian and South Amer
can woods in Europe has quickened the
local demand, and has been a benefit in
two ways. LIST. The London demand
has established a price basis for the
United States, and, End. Manufactur-
ers, heretofore Indifferent, realizing the
need Of these woods later on, are now
inclined to purchase on the London
basis.
In the improbable event of their
failing to receive ample orders for
goods, manufacturers later on can ex-
port these woods to the London auc-
tions, SO that having now this guaran-
tee against any decline below the for
eign price, manufacturers are in the
market for the pick Of these skirted
foreign woods before it is too late.

The Exorbitant Cost of Government.

Senator Aldrich greatly incensed
some of his Republican colleagues,
the other day, by declaring, in a
speech upon the floor of the cham
Der of which he is the manager,
that eff l were business man and
were given permission to manage
the affairs of the government l
would run them at $500, ooo, 900 a
year less than it is now costing to
run them" Senator Hale was es-
pecially outraged by his statement
of a fact. He took Aldrich off into
a remote corner, according to the
Washington correspondents, and
gave him a curtain lecture, He told
Aldrich, according to the same au-
thority. that "he has made the
most stupendous blunder of his
public career and that his words
will be hurled from the stump with
telling effect during the campaign" "
Since the inauguration of Presi-
dent Mckinley, in the spring of
1897, the expenses of the govern
ment have increased at the rate OF
nearly $500, 900, 900 a year. The
expenses of the Spanish war were
considerable, of course, and afford
ed ample excuse for the increased
cost of government during the ad
ministration of that lamented chief
magistrate. But the Spanish wal
was over and all the extraordinary
expenses attached to it discharged
before calamity elevated Theodore
Roosevelt to the Office of President
Yet the expenses of government
continued to increase by "leaps and
bounds" and it is within the limit
of accuracy to say that the last year
of Roosevelt's administration cost
5000, 900 more than the las,
year Of McKinley's incumbency.
Senator Hale told Senator Aid.
rich, the Washington correspon,
dent already iquoted assures us,
that his declaration made it seem
that the Republican party had
squandered billions of dollars dur.
Ing the period it has remained in
power" And that is an exact fact
During the period since the eleva-
ton of Roosevelt a strife has beer
maintained to multiply Offices, in
crease salaries, add to the cost OF
public services in other ways, unit
an aggregate of expenditures ha:
been reached that was never
dreamed OF even during Mckinley:
administration. Roosevelts person
al expenses amounted to quarteI
of million dollars during the las
year of his term, and the cost o
secret service men guarding hi
person is not included in that fig

Lipplncott's For March.

1t is quite eviden, that age can
not wither, nor custom stale, the
infinite variety Of LiBbiReoWS Nag
asiRe. Each month it bobs up Sc
renely with a ftst-cass complete
novel, seven or eight enhancing
short-stories, and wealth of mis-
cellaneous matter, all timely and
readable. There may be dull lines
here and there, but they are lost
sight of in the general excellence.
The March issue opens with a
romance of the automobile, "The
Substitute" by Eleanor NJ. In
gram. This is a remarkable piece
of 6ction-remarkably interesting,
remarkably realistic. There are
thrills all through it, and the de-
scription of the motor.race at the
end is so vivid and enihralling that
it affects one very much as would
ones actual presence at the track.
The characters are all splendidly
depicted, and the love interest is
wholly charming. LiBPiHcotFS has
published many fine novelettes, but
there is no question about "The
Substitute" ranking among the
very best.
Nor are the short stories whit
behind the novel III point of excel
lence. Tney are The Smile of a
Lady," by Owen Oliver; "Trar-
sients in Nineveh." by Will Lev
ington Comfort; "A Bargain in
Rugs" by James Raymond Perry;
"The Hills of DAWN by Mattel
Nelson Thurston; Going Up" by
Ella Middleton Tybout; "The Case
of David Giddly," by Ellis o. Jones,
and The Hold-Up," by Roscoe
Gilmore Stott. Short -Shrift," a
dramatic burlesque by John Ken
drick Bangs, is in this well-known
humorist's happiest vein.
The third of Joseph NJ. Rogers
series of six articles on What is
Wrong With Our Public Schools
deals with "The Teacher" AS
might have been expected, these
papers are creating something of
sensation in pedagogical circles.
and, to some extent, outside. THE

interesting, of the series.

lowing subjects are discussed:

churches, under the name 1.-THE Methodist
Episcopal Church OF America but 1t Is
hardly considered likely that any action
will be taken on the subject. The feel
ing seems to be too strong in some quar-
tiers against union at this time to make
it likely that anything liz this direction
will be done. Instead of this it is gen.
orally thought that steps will be taken
definitely between the two branches of
church withdrawing from southern terri
tory and vice versa.
Important educational interests of the
church are to be adjusted, particularly as
to the relationship to the church of VAN
derbilt university. Nashville, and the own
ership of that institution. The dispute
grows out of the revision of the charter
of the institution which gave greater
powers to the resident trustees, and talk
ing away some of the power which had
been enjoyed by the bishops of the church
Among other important questions COM
ing up is one concerning the limitation
of the bishopric, both as to duties and
term of service. Then there is the uues-
ton of the pastoral time limit which many
of the ministers want removed. This
limit Is now four years in one place.
The question of the administration OF the
sacrament by laymen will also be taken
up.
It is believed the next general confer
ence of the church In 1914 will be held
in Atlanta. The eighth conference was
held, here in 1878, and the general confer.
ence has not met here since that tsme

UNION CONDUCTOR
SHOT AND KILLED

Philadelphia May John McGuicken,
IS years old, a union conductor of this
city, was shot and instantly killed early
this morning during fight between union
and non-union motormen and conductors
near the Frankfort and Lehigh avenue
barn OF the Philadelphia Rapid Transit
company. Victor Farrell aged q years
a non-union man from Washington, ad-
nits firing the fatal shot, but maintains
that he shot in self-defense. At hearing
this morning the man was held without
ball to await the action of the coroner.
The barn near where the shooting &C.
Cured Is in the northeastern section OF
the city, where the feeling against the
former strikebreakers is particularly
strong.
According to Farrell and his friends
they were returning home about l O'Clock
this morning, when they were set upon
by crowd of union sympathizers and
were being badly beaten when he pulled
a revolver from his pocket and fired.
McGuicken's body was found on the
street by a policeman. Farrell and his
friends were arrested.
