is more than offset by the higher cost of living" On this question the
 London Times, further commenting upon the official report of the Brit
 ish government, says:
 Against that enormous difference in wages there is something to be set in the way of expenditure. Rent is
 twice as high and food is about one third higher than in England, but the cost of living altogether is only as 152 to 100, or about half as much again. Now these facts completely dispose of two widely current miscon-
 captions or misstatements. One is
 that the higher wages admittedly paid
 in America are all swallowed up and
 more by the higher cost of living,
 which is believed to surpass the
 standard of this country in regard to
 the necessaries of life by an enormous
 amount, and to constitute an intolera-
 ble burden. The present report ex- plicitly states the contrary at the con-
 clusion of a long, elaborate and eX- tremely careful comparison of the two countries. In the United States, it says, a much greater margin of earn ings over cost of living is available, eveh when allowance has been made for the increased expenditure on food and rent. The margin is clearly large, making possible command of the necesSaries and conveniences and minor luxuries of life that is both nominally and really greater than that enjoyed by the corresponding class in this country"
 The facts are indisputable that never in the history of the world were the working classes so pros porous as they are in this country of ours today. The average wage worker commands, as ordinary necessities, comfort which abroad are the luxur- ies of the wealthy. All of these facts were better appreciated, of course, a dozen years ago, than they are now. Then the country, after trying the of democratic tariff, still freshly remembered the years of stag nation, of factories running on half time or closed altogether, the years in which more than a million laborers were idle The days of Mckinley prosperity" had come, and it then seemed that never again would the voters of the United States be so foolish as to try the experiment of opening our doors to the products of cheap foreign labor. But the very fact of widespread prosperity brought a demonstration of which we saw in the last election. Those who could not have automobiles were made to believe that they had been wronged in some manner. and they voted for a change" A change" the whole industrial policy of the nation is threatened for next year, and the mere possibility of it is causing a business timidity on the part of thinking people.

Bryan's Leadership Reflected.

Disregarding the protests of MT Bryan the democrats of the ways and means committee of the house have reported a bill for a duty on raw wOol-a duty amounting to three to five cents a pound.
 A few weeks ago MT Bryan was reported to be somewhat favorable to a duty on wool But, evidently, after thinking the matter over. he de- cided to be a standpatter on the proposition of free wool At any rate he issued his orders to congress last week. He told the democratic lawmakers that the democratic party could never, never afford to be for protection in any form, and that a duty on wool would be a rank form of protection. And by way of en- Tightening the country he made the statement that such democrats in congress as are in favor of a tariff on wool are guilty of treason to democratic doctrines. It cannot be claimed, therefore, that the demo- cratic congressman have acted with out information and instructions from the only true source of democratic doctrine. Indeed, Chairman Under wood of the committee on ways and means does not attempt to disguise the issue. He bluntly admits that the democratic party will be for the proposed tariff, and that by trying to give orders to the house MT. Bryan has only increased the majority against him.
 The fate of the committee bill is problematical, inasmuch as there will be opposition on one side from the Bryan democrats and on the other side from republicans, who will ob- ject to the reductions proposed in the bill. The only thing safely es- tablished at this time is that MT. Bryan has lost his h hJld-if he ever had it-on the democratic majority in the national house of representa- tives. And having begun to scold the leaders of his party in congress, it is probable that he will have occa- sion in due course to scold the demo- cratic party generally, for the demo- crats elected to congress last fall will, combined, have more influence than Mir Bryan can exert alone.

 What is your name?" asked the magistrate.

 Bad Luck" said Annie. That's my husband. Don't know what he done it for"
 The magistrate turned to the hus- band and asked him why he had had his wife arrested.
 Why, for vagrancy," replied the hus- band
 ''vagrancy?" said the judge. How do you make that out? Does she not live with you?"
 Yes" said the huband, "but she done bust open my door last night
 Why" said the judge, that is not vagrancy; that is hydrophobia."

Finances and Markets

New York. June I.-The strong and confident tone of the stock market to- day seemed to indicate that the mis- giyings felt so recently have given way to a more hopeful view. The acute weakness Of yesterday disappeared and the recovery which began shortly be- fore the close of the preceding session was carried forward steadily. The an nounced plans for a readjustment of the finances of the Hill railroads was perhaps the most powerful factor in improving sentiment. Great Northern preferred advanced three points and Northern Pacific almost as much, mak- ing new high records for the year.
 The American Tobacco decision was viewed in a more favorable light in the financial community today. Some further uneasiness was shown by hold CTS of American Tobacco securities, all though there was none of the violence of yesterdays decline. Common stock fell twenty-five points on the curb to- day and American Snuff, a subsidiary, sold twenty-five points below the pre- vious transaction last week.
 United States Steel, which has borne the brunt of the recent bear attack, was unyielding and gained more than a point In the copper market there was a better sentiment and a substantial increase in demand is expected. The fortnightly statement issued today showed a further decrease in the visible European supply, shrinkage for April and May aggregating more than 24,- 900, ,OO0 pounds.
 The bond market was firm; total sales. par value, s4.s55.000.

New York, July Especial )-Like e all else in New York the clubs are yielding to the irresistible upward flow of the city, business centers have grad ually moved north, so have social cen ters and practically all other centers and now the flood has struck the clubs.

ing land or rising ground. If not, the Barrier would have continued it's course unchecked, and no bay would have been formed -@
 ",rhe day after we sighted the Barrier we reached this bay. still in the same situation-about longitude 164 degrees W It was so full, however, of recently broken up bay ice that there was no question of getting in. We therefore took a little run eastward along the edge of the Barrier to await events The next morning. January l3, we re- turned, and found that so much of the ice had foated out that there was an opportunity for us to get in. My be- | lief as to the origin of the bay was strengthened as we got further south; !; | the forma ton stood out more clearly and sharply, and at the southern end we could distinctly make out hills and | valleys.
