NEW YORK, April 1.-The Wall
Street Summary in its issue Mon
day will say:
Price movements during the last
week were again to lower levels,
losses ranging from 2 to points
The bear leaders had plenty Of
developments on which to base
their campaign, chief among them
being the additions to the burdens
Of the railroads in the shape of in
creased fixed charges because Of
new securities and advances In
wages Of employees. The question
now in stockholders minds is as to
the prospect of maintaining divi-
dends on many roads, and already
many, instead of hoping for in
creases, fear that in some cases,
particularly two important west
ern lines a reduction of dividend
payments will be imperative.
The most important market fac
tor of the week was the action Of
the Atchison directors offering
$50, 100000 convertible 4 per cent
bonds to stockholders at 1902. The
course of the stock and the move
ment of the new bonds after this

railroad builds its own line, that 1t
is usually and ordinarily built en-
tirely by contract and the contract
ors do all the work and employ
whatever labor the contractors see
fit.
No doubt the union labor of this
city is fully aware of the scale be-
ing paid to common labor by the
railroads now doing business in
this city. If not they can readily
ascertain by making inquiry Of the
Great Northern or Northern
Pacific.
The proposed recognition of
union labor, on the work Is mere
subterfuge. Only skilled labor can
be secured through the unions.
This proposed recognition, there
fore, has no force or effect. There
will be very little work for skilled
labor; common labor will have to
do nearly all the work in construct
ing railroads.
The statement that 100000, 900
will be spent in Washington and
Idaho in construction of new lines
is absurd. All of the property Of
the Oregon Railway & Navigation
company in the state of Washing
ton has been appraised by the rail-
road commission of Washington at
less than $20,000,000. All of the
property, including road, terminal
and everything Of the Great North
ern in the state of Washington has
been appraised by the railroad
commission Of the state of Wash.
ington at less than $4,000 900. The
railroad commission of the state of
Washington has appraised 900
miles of read and all the terminals
and property in the state Of Wash
ingtOn of the Northern Pacific Co.
at less than $65,000,000. These ap-
praisals include also rolling stock
used in the operation of the road.
1t Is stated upon good authority
that a first class railroad can be
built from here to the Columbia
river-about 40 miles-for $4,000
900, and there connect with river
navigation.
Terminal rates will be of vastly
more benefit and be permanent
and lasting benefit to all classes
and especially to the laboring class
of this city.
The ridiculous part of the whole
matter is the liberality of the
Citizens committee" in spending
their own money so freely and the
liberality with which they have
subscribed and donated funds to
carry on such vigorous campaign
for the railroads, when it was so
difficult to secure contributions for
the expenses incident to the rate
case now pending for the inter-
state commerce commission. If,
however, we are mistaken about
this being the money of the "Citi-

of passion and strife and insult.
Shayne still stood as if fixed; Silb-

nose with his handkerchief. Vir-

The girl looked at the fugitive
bills which Silberberg had begun
laboriously to pick up, and shot
glance of comprehension at Theo-
dore.

Let me see you safe aground"
Carson stood aside for her, and
they went out upon the mile high
deck. She halted, aghast to note
that they were still high among
the clouds of the storm, blowing
on through wild waste of toss
ing vapor, while the hoarse growl
from the earth was so distant as
to admonish her of the giddy
height from the ground. Beyond the
illumination Of the lights, it was
absolutely dark.

she interrogatively. I'll go with

NO" said he. 81 shall never

That instantaneous leave taking
the trembling girl never forgot.
Pressing her hands, he started for
ward as If to press her in his arms,
while she made no gesture of either
yielding or resisting. He turned
from the embrace already half be-
gun. stepped upon the rail, and
dropped off into that black abyss
of night and tempest. Like a stone
he fell, lost in the mists.
The parachute so far as she
could see, had not opened in the
least when he vanished; and with
pallid face she stood there, peering
over into the unpeopled space, her
soul filled with horrible visions
of the end of that wild and reckless
leap at the behest of pride. AS she
pictured his fall to the solid earth,
she covered her face with her hands
and sank down on the deck.

What IS the Reason of This?

The cost of bread in the United
States is a puzzling item to Mr.. &. R.
Cahill, an Investigator for the London
Board of Trade. and who is now in this
country. In II recent interview in
Chicago he said: II can't understand
how we can buy bread in England for
onc-third the price you pay in Chicago
when you send us your wheat. You
have to pay five cents for fourteen
ounces of bread, while we get loaf
weighing siHty-four ounces for: ten
cents. Onr four-pound loaf never costs
more than twelve cents, and usually
only ten cents. confess | can't under
stand it.
1t is evident that MI Cahill does not
understand the beauties of the Ameri-
can protective tariff-the best ever. If
he will consult N[essrs. Taft, Aldrich
and Cannon they will explain it to him,
and in the language of Mark Twain,
