CLEVELAND
GUILTY OF AN
ILLEGAL TRICK

There is more trouble for the Ham
burg-American S. s. Cleveland, which
left here for San Francisco last Mon
day afternoon with 655 round-the-
world tourists from New York.
CONSERVATION spread among her peo-
pie before reaching here, thanks to the
wireless, owing to the official report
that her company would have to dig
up 5000 fine, per capita, for landing
passengers at an American port who
had come from an American port.
Gable consultation was had with
New York headquarters and some ar
rangement was made.
But new, and what appears to be
deliberate violation of the coastwise
shipping law, and directly applying
for the reason that the passage in
volved in the new cases is between
Honolulu and San Francisco, has now
arisen.

something of that nature; and two
Frisco hotel men, Pierce and Haw-
lins, also came down here to go back
in the Cleveland, signing the ships
articles as employees At 5000 apiece,
and theEe appears to be no chance to
avoid the law, their total fines will
amount to $500, and it is understood
that the company will not only be
soaked for the 5000 per capita in the
cases of Sharp, Duckworth, Pierce
and Hawkins, but will likely have
some difficulty on this account in get

templated excursion from that port,

THE WIDTH OF COUNTRY ROADS

THE WIDTH OF COUNTRY ROADS.
An attempt is being made by some
to reduce the width Of the country
roads in Iowa. 1t is conceded that
the average width Of highways the
country over Is 66 feet. What spe.
cial conditions exist in Iowa to make
this state an exception to the gener
al rule. A 30-foot road, il kept in
the condition, Of paved street,
would be all right, but how are our
country roads to be made and kept
in that condition? Where roads pre-
sent series o. ruts, mud holes and
other Instructions. such as snow
banks in winter time, &C feet is often
insufficient. And again, If roads
should be reduced to 80 feet in
width, where would the public get the
materials to build highway that
wide? And where would the bitches
SO necessary to good roads, be 10
Gated?
Public necessity. to say NOTHING
about public safety, requires a road
way at least es feet wide. and the
men who contend otherwise have lit
tie to support their contention.
The railroads of the country fine
that they need right Of way lot
feet wide. and the public needs a
least &C feet for roadway.

SPECIAL WASHINGTON COR
REsPoNDENcE.
BY Clyde H. Tavenner.

i
When a woman purchases $40
worth Of wooden dress goods.
s4.S7 represents the value of the
goods and $5.13 the amount Of the
tariff.
This is because of the Payne-Al-
drich ad valorem tariff of l05 per
cent. Or in other words, on each
81 worth of wooden dress goods i'm
ported, the Payne-Aldrich law 'levies
tax of $1.05. The consumer must
pay the 81 value and the $1.05 tar
if, or $2.O5 for one dollars worth
of goods.
This is but one OF a thousand H.
Illustrations that could be Submitted
to show how the tariff Affects the
cost OF living.
Here is another sample iilustra-
ton for the tariff arithmetic class.
which is composed of some S0,00O,-
900 American consumers. all Of
whom are more OF less dissatisfied
with the awful increase in prices.
A suit of clothes having an i'm
port price of $40, and which costs
an Englishman $40 when ready to
put on, all wool and tailor made,
pays at the custom house an ad
valorem tariff OF 80 per cent or So
per suit, making the suit cost the
American when it is put on $18, dis
regarding transportation and retail
profits.
Another comparison: An English
woman carpeting a room Is fee
square with ingram carpet two pl,
would buy SO yds at a dollar yard
fiat, or would pay $36. An Amer
lean woman using the same carpe
would pay $2S.75 tariff at the Gus
tom house, which would make tn
carpet cost her s59.76.

NO NEW DEVELOPMENTS
 IN VIADUCT SITUATION

There were no new developments in the viaduct proposition yesterday beyond the fact that the engineers of the various railroads and corporations affected were figuring on the cost and other problems to be overcome in the construction of the two viaducts, one of which will be along First avenue, intersecting with the other, which will go along Twenty-eighth street and cross First avenue over the railroad tracks to the Southside.
 l.. Sevfer, executive head of the Ala bama Great Southern railroad and South ern Railway company for this district, stated yesterday afternoon that there was nothing new and that things would be in abeyance until the engineers com pleted their work.
 It will take the engineers some little time to finish their task, but it is ex- pected that the plans and propositions will be complete within a few weeks at the most and it would not be surprising to see actual work on the viaducts within a few, months time.
 The building of the viaducts will be a stupendous undertaking, but when com pleted will give to the city the things generally conceded to be the most needed a direct driveway from the Country cub section to the Norwood and Terminal station section of the city and the removal

HORSES AND MULES
 IN GOOD DEMAND
WE'RE SOLD TO HIGHEST BIDDERS YESTERDAY-IMPOR INDUS TRY IN BIRMINGHAM

Birmingham is one of the best horse and mule markets in the south and the industry has developed largely in the last few years. The big firm of Fies & Sons has done great deal to build up the Birmingham market as mules and horses are now sold here for farm use all over
 Alabama and adjoining states
 There is big demand at all times for heavy mules for use around the mines, big plants and for heavy drays in town. The market is active, too, for first-class driving and saddle horses, and these ami mals command fancy price.
 Eugene Fies yesterday in speaking of the horse and mule market had this to say:
 "The demand this season is very strong and prices are considerably high CT than last year. Buying today at my auction sale was fast and prices were good Over 250 animals, consisting of fancy driving and riding horses, matched teams and mules were sold to the high est bidders I hold an auction about ev- cry two weeks and sell every animal l put up. I sell under a guarantee, too, and the buyer is always protected. We have just gotten into our new stable. the biggest exclusive sales stable south of St. Louis. The stable is 30 feet wide by 475 feet deep"
