Newport, r. l., Get. 27.-Merchants
Of this city, recognized as the most.
fashionable summer resort in the
United States, are ready to organize
squad to guard all outgoing railroad
trains. The merchants are not look
ing for conflicts; rather they wan.
money, and some want 1t so badly
that they will be forced to join fellow
tradesmen by seeking the bankruptcy
court. All this has been brought
about by the failure of, the wealthy
cottage owners to pay their bills. A
number of merchants have failed be-
cause the men and women Of millions
cannot take the trouble to settle
tradesman's account. There are some
people, of course, in Newport who pay
their bills, but merchants have gone
on record as saying the majority of
people who spend the summer and
fall in Newport leave without paying
their meat. grocery or Wine bills.
Some cottages were supplied all sum-
mer without sending check to their
tradesmen. A fish dealer of years
standing has closed shop temporarily,
unable to tide over his accounts De-
cause he carries almost $4,000 on his
books and his creditors crowded him.
Other shops are tottering for money
owed them in the cottage settlement.

Following the climax of the Balm

the resignation of Mr.. Pinchot, a sort
of calm has settled over the politi-
cal sea. Instead of one faction feel
ing that it had the other faction on

see the folly of their course and now
there is a disposition to view condi-
lions with a more careful and seri-
Gus attitude.
The conviction is slowly taking
hold of thoughtful men that condi-
lions in the United States are verging
OR a crisis. In the very nature of
the case, great public questions upon
which there is a difference of opin-
ion must be dealt with in the spirit

public interest with which the lead

tributed to undertaking or a desire

&c the result of the recent referen-
dunn election of national officers. No

i has passed through and the amount
