THE COTTON INDICTMENTS.

THE SOIDUN
Attorney General Wiekersham says
he is well satisfied with the indictment
OF James 4. Patten and a number of
other cotton manipulators. His
Department inspired the indict-
rnents, says Mr. wickersham. He
learned that a cotton pool was being
formed last winter and has been
on the trail of the conspirators ever
since that time. When the Depart
ment OF Justice found that none of
the men involved had money enough
to corner the market on his own ac-
count. when it was discovered that the
nspiIators had no intention OF using
the cotton they bought, and when evil \
dence was forthcoming TO show that
patten ana his allies Were buying
May cotton. June cotton, July cotton
and August cotton, the case was plain
Patten and the rest were attempting
a conspiracy in restraint of trade. ana
as suck should be punished.-unde
the.sherman antitrust act, of course.
This is all very nice. and there viii
be comparatively Few people TO mourn
II the Patten ring is broken IN. but
it strikes us as little strange that the
Government has only discovered Its
power to deal with corners in cotton
since the bulls have been in control of
she market IN other days, when cot
ton was selling for four and I'VE cents,
when the Sherman antitrust act read
as it reads to-day, nobody ever
thought Of the Governments helping
10 boost prices. The farmers had 10
take such prices as they could get;
the Government had nothing TO do
with it, Yet as soon as : few men
! began 10 manipulate cotton and were
1 wiling 70 pay the farmers fifteen
cents in The hope that they might
sell for twenty, the Government dis
covers that the whole thing IS Illegal

wIIEnE rs ABDuLs

Abdul Hamid, abdul the Damned
as William watson called him, has APP
parently disappeared from the face OF
the earth. When he was deposed last
year, it was announced that he would
be confined at Saloniki the centre of
the young Turk movement in Mace
donla, and he was seen after his re-
moval to that place, working In q flow
err garden and apparently aping
young Louis XVII. In the course of a
few weeks. he was seen no more, and
1t was reported that he was lurking In
his rooms, fearful of assassination
and Convinced that a plot was on foot
to kill him. Rumors of his Illness
were then spread and 1T was said that
his death was not far distant but no
official report was made. According
to the washington Post, no physicians
attend the palace and no government
officers call on him. The old Sultan has
not been seen for months. The whole
Turkish world is asking, Where Is
Abdul?
1t would not be very serious loss
If nothing more were ever heard OF
this red-handed tyrant. If his crimes
could ever be forgotten. the world
could afford to erase his name from
the annals of Turkey and could leave
him to his fate. Still. it is rather In
teresting to observe his sudden disap-
pearaace, especially since he is sup
posed 10 be the captive of q reformed
Government, lawful in its dealings and
just to all mon. The chances are, of
course, that he has been killed. or
that he has been spirited away 10

out his friends. If such he the case,
it is hardly credit to his Govern
