ARE WE CONSERVATION MAD?
BRITISH INVESTORS PLACE VAST
 SUMS.

In the first nine months of this year the money publicly raised from English investors is stated by the London Economist to have reached the enormous sum of $1,055, 900, 900. That journal adds:
 "It must be understood that this fig ure represents not nominal capital. but actual capital received, and that only those prospectuses are taken into account which are publicly advertised. Private issues are neglected and the large amount of capital raised by pri- vate and local negotiations have no place in this calculation. This record of capitalistic enterprise goes ahead of any figure previously recorded for the full twelve months of previous years"
 In the first nine months of this year the great borrowers of British money have been foreign railways. a total of over $200.000,00O having been raised on their account chiefly on the bonds of Amreican railroads. Second in size are the British government borrow ings, which amounted to $120,000, 900. and colonial government loans. $112,- 000, ,0O0, while foreign government loans amounted to s7,6OO,OOO. As to destina- ton of capital by country. $337. .000, ,000 went to British possessions and $1S5.- O00.000 to the United States The ar ticle in question concludes with the statement:
 ''In the next fey years we may ex pect to find Canada, the United States and Argentina all competing for big supplies of English capital to carry on and develop their railroad systems"

These two questions have naturally come to be inextricably linked together so that the fate of one will be an accurate forecast of the fate of the other, so far as it can be determined by the convention.

Sorely Tried Reformers.

The progressive" Republican ma chine of California is about to be sorely tried One of the sacred tenets of reformers everywhere Is that United States senators should be chO- sen by the people.
 California has a direct nomina- ton law which provides that the people may cast an advisory vote for a senatorial nominee, the members of the legislature elected from any dis trict being expected to cast their vote for the choice of the people of his district, provided he is of the same political faith as the member.
 Or if it should turn out that the majority of the districts should de- clare in favor of another candidate of the same party, the member from any district might cast his vote for such a candidate notwithstanding, his own district had declared in favor of another
 There were two principal republi- can candidates before the people of California, A. G. Spalding regular" and John D. Works progressive" At the primaries, Spalding carried sixty three legislative districts and Works thirty districts. Works, however, se cured a slightly larger popular vote in the state. If in a district carried by either of these candidates, a demo- crat should be elected. of course he would not be expected to vote for the popular nominee.
 Before the primaries so sure were the "progressives" of the success of their candidate, they officially declared that the elected members of the legis- lature were morally bound to execute the will of the people of their districts.
 Now, under the law, Works is out of the running. Every republican leg isiator is morally bound" to suppO Jt Spalding either because Spalding car ried his district, or because he car ried the greatest number of districts.
 Yet the reformers are planning the defeat of Spalding and are declaring that the legislature is under moral obligations to elect Works, though he secured less than half as many dis tricts as Spalding, for the reason that he secured a slightly larger popular vote, a fact which is not taken into account by this law which the reform CTS only a few months ago declared that legislators were morally bound to observe.
 The indications are that the reform CTS will set the sacred direct primary law at naught and effect the election of one of their own number, but the pretext upon which they will do it will be an object of interest and when it is done, it will appear that the reformers are less sincere than they are progressive"

ANKLETS ARE COMING BACK
An Eeeentricity Worn With the Short Frocks and is, of Course,
 From Paris

Anklets are now to be purchased in the West End, but we should say the sale for the barbaric shackle will be limited There are certain to be a few women. to whom freak fash ions specially appeal, who will adopt the new idea. though the sensible, level headed English girl is not like ly to take it up. The anklet idea is the outcome of the present fashion of very short dresses. high patent leather shoes, and brilliantly colored stockings, which in itself is bad enough without the addition of a bangle to further attract attention The fashion" it goes without say ing, comes from Paris, where it has been taken up to an extent, but only by those inclined to eccentricity in dress.
 ~ But, after all, the wearing of ank lets would be merely the revival of an old fashion. Three generations ago it was not unusual to see a ban gle round the ankle, and a famous wearer of this ornament was the wife of the third Duke of Cleveland, the old duchess who died in 1883, at the age of 91 She had very small feet, and to display them, would of ten sit upon table and let her ank- let fall down over her foot. One day a friend. equally proud of her small foot. asked the duchess-or Lady Caroline Powlett, as she was in her younger days-if she might try and get the ankIet over her foot Lady Caroline consented, and to her great disgust, her friend was able not only to put it on. but to kick it. off, so easily did her foot go through if

Finances and Markets

New York, Nov. 16.-The most ef- fective interest today in the move ment of stock prices was the early absence of the aggressive operations for an advance by a few brokers which were the features of yesterdays market. The leaders were watched for the appearance of these operations in United States Steel, Union Pacific and Reading These stocks were sold because the orders failed to appear. This was taken to indicate the aban- donment of the attempt to inaugurate new market movement by concen- trating dealings in those stocks. The reaPpearance of the same kind of buying in United States Steel and Union Pacific in the final hour pulled prices up again and left them higher than last night. The general decline in the prices of meat all over the cOuRtry came in for a grea. deal of attention. The latest rapid decline has come as a' subsequent to the No venber 1 condition shown by Brad streets Index as to number of com modity prices. The fall from the record level of January l of this year
 
 cline evidently in progress in in creased degree since November 1. Great satisfaction is felt with this tendency. One immediate effect is the increased pressure on banks in some sections of the west. The explanation is that the fall in grain prices has prompted farmers to withhold their offerings, and to buy livestock to feed the corn to. With the end of the feeding period there is foreseen a large influx of offerings in the cat tie markets. a further decline in meat prices and a heavy liquidation of bank loans
