known the consumption of meats has
been materially checked, and very
considerable increase in the supply
of hogs will occur this year, which is
already affecting the price Of such
products.
The liquidation which mas recently
taken place in grain and cotton is
beneficial in more ways than one. It
will tend to lower the cost of living
put an end to dangerous speculation,
and facilitate more normal conditions
in our foreign trade. Already i'm.
ports are declining and exports in
.creasing as the results Of lower
prices; and the drift OF our foreign
trade which has long been abnormal
and unfavorable is returning to the
normal. Nor is there any likelihood
of an early return to recent condi-
tons. Europe also is being favored
with large cropR which will tend to
keep down food prices abroad, and
prevent injurious upward manipula
ton in American markets. One of the
worst features for some time past
has been the position of our foreign
commerce; a situation which i'm
pressed Europe much more unfavor-
ably than it did ourselves. For a
long period European bankers viewed
the tendencies here with uneasiness,
and our credit abroad was undoubted-
ly impaired by our inability to pay
for imports with merchandise rather
than gold. The change in tendencies
which is now taking place is funda-
mental and Strengthening. AS soon
as Europe sees that we are in a
position to retain our gold and ship
produce instead, our credit abroad
Will rise and the effect must be bene
fetal to ourselves. Should we re-
quire gold next autumn, as is pro
bable, we will have no difficulty in
drawing the same. The great Euro
pean banks have all be accumulat-
ing supply of the precious metal and
indications are that we will be able
to build up our gold reserves during
the coming fall and winter.
The latter fact is important mas
much as there had been more or les!
apprehension of severe stringency il
the American markets as soon as thu
crop season is fairly under way. Thi
possibility was recognized by Western
bankers who have been applying tn,
brakes and enforcing liquidation il

WOMEN GAMBLERs RAGE.

A dispatch from 0stend, Belgium,
says: Amid the most exciting scenes
the police have raided the gambling
tables I'm the Kursaal and the Esser
establishments, which make Ostend,
next to Monte Carlo, the favorite re-
sort in Europe Of those who WOO tickle
Fortune.
The women at the Kursaal tables
were wrought up to the pitch OF fury
because their play was interrupted so
rudely. The men, perhaps more hard
ened gamblers, took the raid philo-
sophically.
Some women, shrieking, struck the
policemen who seized their stakes and
fought like so many viragos to regain
their money. Two or three women
with titles, however dubious, were
fOrcibly escorted to the gardens and
advised to leave Ostend as quietly and
quickly as possible Other women
frightened half to death, sat silent and
rigid as if turned to stone. A white
haired woman wept and lamented
loudly that had the police delayed
their visit only one night she wOnld
have won a fortune.
In the universal scramble for the
stakes the cool-headed raScals among
the players filled their pockets with
other peoples money.
The police confiscated the stakes, the
costlyigaming tables and materials, even
the blotters from the writing desks, for
the blotters bore the names of the
players who had been writing letters or
signing checks, and were needed as
evidence.
But even more was needed to stop the
gaming than this sudden and severe
action. The next day deal tables and
chairs were taken into the rooms, rou-
lette wheels were hastily procured and
gambling went on as before, but not
without so great physical comfort to the
players.
Since the raid very many people
have left Ostend. The season, which
has been afflicted with execrable
weather, is at an end, practically. But
decent peoble say good riddance" of
those who have gone, and insist that
Ostend's own inherent attractions suf-
flee to make it a successful resort.

KING WINS HIS PEOPLE.

The popularity OF the king and
queen Of England steadily increases,
and the party leaders are warned that
a general election in which the ques-
ton of disloyaity Of either side to the
reigning family is raised will be dis
astrous.
Their drive through east and south
London yesterday after a fortnight
with the fighting services has brought
them into touch with the masses.
Their goal was London Hospital, where
they visited the wards for patients un-
dergoing radium treatment and in
spected devices for the protection OF
X-ray operators and the new Finsen
light apparatus presented by the queen
mother to the hospital.
The visit, while an assurance that
that class of institutions for which
King Edward helped to raise millions
would not be neglected during the
present reign, was less important than
the practical evidence that the king and
queen were at home among their
humbleSt subjects.
A long circuit was chosen for the
route to Whitcchapel and the return by
London Bridge and Borough High
street, and the simple and unaffected
function was witnessed by an immense
concOurse of the poorest and lowliest.
The route was not lined with troops,
and the escort of soldiers and equerries
accompanying the royal carriages was
not large. The addresses of welcome
from the boroughs were dispensed with,
and the formalties were restricted to
the quaint ceremony at Holborn Bars,
where the lord mayors sword was dis
played and salutes were fired. South
wark and other borough officials were
in their robes.
As two OF the kings children were in
the possession it was like family
party. Everything was simple and un-
pretentious and the crowds swarming
all along the route, as though the me-
tropolis had been emptying out for
bank holiday, were orderly and respect
full, showing that they fully appreciated
the attentions paid them by a consid-
crate monarch and his amiable queen.
There could have been no more strik-
ing evidence that monarchy in England
has become a democratic institution.

HER FLAG TO COME DOWN.
Queen Alexandra's quaint flag will
be lowered from the staff Of Bucklng-
ham Palace soon and King Georges
royal standard will take its place. The
queen with her sister, the Dowager
Empress of Russia, is going to Denmark
early next month. The sisters will
spend a week or two at Sandringham
before proceeding to Denmark, where
the queen owns a country villa near
Copenhagen. They will also pay a
visit to the king and queen OF Nor
way.
King George has been very con-
sderate of his mother since the death
OF King Edward The etiquette and
the custom of European courts insist
that the widow OF sovereign shall
vacate the palace immediately after the
husbands funeral. Queen adelaide
left Windsor Castle within an hour after
the burial OF her husband, King Will
liam. Queen Alexandra, however, has
been permitted by her son to remain
at Buckingham Palace as long as she
wished
She is now experimenting the pack
ing of her personal effects preparatory
to leaving the palace forever. She left
the palace the other day to call upon
her son at Marlborough House, three
blocks away. 1t was the first time she
has been outside the palace since the
kings funeral.

wharf laborers' troubles, connected
with the great strike in the coal min
ing industry. Some $50 non-union
laborers who had come to the assist
ance Of the employers were dismissed
for no other reason than that they were
non-uniOnists, the unionists refusing to
work alongside them. Had the dis
missed workmeu been unionists their
employers would have been liable TO a
fine of 800 for each man so dismissed
or a total oJ SO, 600.
The dismissed laborerS appealed and
we're met with strong opposition from
the unionists but Judge Heydon said he
was driven to the conclusion that the
free laborers having had their legal
rights attacked, must be put in posi-
ton to defend themselves. To be a
non-unionist was not an offensc against
the law. Employers could refuse them
employment, but at any rate free lab
orers must not be told that the law de-
priyed them OF the right to work.

LEAGUE PLANS TO
REPLACE mission
Marin Promoters Hope to Erect
Duplicate of Historic San

SAN RAFAEL. Dec. 16.-The erection
of a duplicate of the old San Rafael
mission and the building of modern
Ell Canine real are part of the elab-
crate plans for the new year that will
receive official notice at special meet
ing of the Marin promotion league Mon
day night. An oil painting of the old
mission exists, and from this the pro-
moters hope to- draw plans for a small
building that will contain relics of the
Marin Indians and the padres who
taught them.
The league officials hope to interest
the state road engineers in the revival
of the kings highway. They expect
that a portion of the SIS, 100000 set
aside for state roads will be used in
this county and will seek to have their
share used in making the county road
from Sausalito to Petaluma. the old
Canine real a modern boulevard in
keeping with it's original name.
Another plan which will be consid-
cred by the board of directors is that
of restoring the ferry service between
San Quentin point and San Francisco.
Instead of landing passengers at San
Quentin. however. the proposed boats
would steam up San Pablo bay as far
as Schuetzen park. From there the

Rafael under the auspices of the local
lodge of Eagles. which will crown the
festivities with a masquerade ball.

ment and history. The celebrations
will succeed each other at intervals of
approximately 80 days. Among them
will be a William Tell day at Tomales;
a water carnival at Sausalito and Bel
