OF Extraordinary Importance.

The Hon George Washington Peter
Hunt. who was president of the con-
stitutiOnal convention. makes il
known that he has received a telegram
from certain senator's at Washington
which reads:
Senator Bourne has shown us
editorial and his letter to you in the
daily Globe of January 6. We are
not familiar with details of the Ari-
iona constitution. but the undersigned
want to assure you that the popular
government features. particularly the
initiative, referendum and recall in
the state constitution will receive
their hearty support"
The telegram is signed by Clapp of
Minnesota, Bristow Of Kansas. Cum
minis of Iowa, Brown of Nebraska,
LaFollette of Wisconsin, and Dixon
of Montana.
We thus have the evidence before
us that Senator Bourne of oregon was
able TO get, out of a membership Of
some ninety in the United States SEN
ate, six senators who pledge them
selves in favor of some of the dis
tinctive features of the Arizona con-
stitution.
No pledge is furnished from a single
democratic senator.
Each of the senators mentioned
above is one of the radically "insur-
gent" group of republicans. Each Of
these six senators has hitherto, time
and again. gone on record in favor Of
the things mentioned in the telegram.
For them again to state their posi-
ton is about as sensational and i'm
portant as would be the announcement
that the Hollanders speak the Dutch
language.
Although it would not count for a
great deal If the whole congress could
be shown as in favor of the Arizona
as against the fact that
the constitution goes to the president
first and his disapproval would stop
the measure from reaching congress
yet il would be interesting if
Senator Bourne had been able to show
a majority i'm either house of congress.
But he does not do that He shows US
what everybody knew already-that
there are some half dozen senators
who stand with him.
1t would interest the people OF Ari-
iona beyond everything else. to have
some evidence that President Taft will
approve the constitution.

the meager report he did make to the
geological survey was confidential"
Publicity in an official report, he con-
sidered, would lessen the market for
his newspaper and magazine stories.
Peary also admitted that the notes
taken oy him would not be sufficient
to guide another explorer over his
route--the world must take his word
for it that he reached the pole. The
world is entirely willing to believe him,
however The general conclusion is
that Peary has told the truth, but is
narrow and selfish, and is a sort of a
crank 1t would have made no diff
ference in the credit to be accorded
him. if he had taken several white men
with him to the pole. The achieve
ment would have been his. and his
alone in the eyes of the world. And
in selfishly grabbing for all the glory
of reaching the pole he has lost most
OF it.

The Worried Czarina.

Gables from St Petersburg report
that the serious illness from which the
empress of Russia has been suffering

and that her condition is growing
worse. The health, possibly the life,

worry for her son. From the day.

hoped-fOr heir TO the Russian throne

seems has resulted in paralysis Now.

lowly her home, would exchange places

The CuIebra landslips.

The report of another serious land
slip in the Culebra cut of the Panama
canal has started another chorus of
gloomy predictions from the a0vo-
Gates of a sea level canal. II may be
demonstrated eventually that the lock
system is not the best. but it is diff
cult to understand how the landslips
in the Culebra cut furnish any argu-
ment for the sea-level plan. In order
TO construct a sea-level canal ii would
be necessary to dig the Culebra cut
eighty-five feet deeper than is now
proposed; and while the cut would
be much wider, of course, its greater
depth would undoubtedly subject the
engineers to equal if not greater diff
culties in contending with landslips.

Finances and Markets

New York, Nov 1.-THE resumption
of yesterdays buying movement in
stocks was a feature of the opening
today, though in a moderate form.
Early transactions were conspicuous
for the extent of trading in United
States Steel and Reading. both show
ing smart gains.
Selling by traders, presumably for
profits, soon wiped out the greater
part of Readings advance, but Steel
held comparatively steady. Trading
fell off in the second hour, which was
notable chiefly for the strength of
Lehigh Valley and the gyrations Of
GOldfield Consolidated, which closed
yesterday at Gs ad sold down To 5l2
today. This issue was only recently
listed on the exchange and at no time
has had much support.
The bank statement more than full
filled expectations as to the cash gain.
which was over $26,000.O00. The I'M
certainties of the week were demon
strated in the actual loan account,
which increased over S1S,000,000. Re
serves, however, show very substan-
tial gains. There was an enormous
reduction in loans by the state banks
and trust companies of $32 500. 900.
which indicates that some of those
institutions found it inconvenient dur
ing the week to shift the burden Of
the loans to the clearing house banks.
further increase in the number of
idle cars was officially announced to-
day, making a total of about 10000
cars News from abroad reported a
further hardening of discounts in Lon
don, due primarily to some fear con-
corning the February settlements,

The examination of Commander
Peary by a congressional committee

the popularity of the north poles

reason for taking none of his white

the jealous members of the local Cath

have permitted themselves to exhibit
opposition to the harangues of a

that an adventurer seeking notoriety

STORY OF THE CIVIL WAR

Description During Next Three Weeks

Philadelphia Inquirer Will Give a
Description During Next Three Weeks
Fifty years ago, on April II, 1861,
Fort Sumpter was fired upon. Fifty
years ago this country was just
awakening to the shock of the great
est war that has ever been fought.
In this Semi-Centennial Year the
Inquirer will print continued story
of the momentous events of that
period which altered the history of
this country if not of the entire
world. A complete history of the
Civil War retold in graphic and
dramatically interesting manner by
an expert historian. The entire
narrative of the great conflict, as
told by war correspondents of the
Philadelphia Inquirer in the field
from 1861 to 1865, will be retold
with historical accuracy in the light
of later developments. This is
not the story of the war printed day
by day and lasting through the long
drawn out period of nearly five
years. From the firing upon Sump-
ter, in April, 81, to Bull Run, in
July 81, no critical tests of the
strength of the two great armies oc-
Cured, the period being occupied
mostly with recruiting and some few
minor skirmishes and battles. The
Inquirer will tell the entire story
of the War in the next three months
A full page every Sunday will
describe in their order the great
battles of the war, while the inter-
vening articles in the daily issues of
the Inquirer will make a connected
story, covering the entire conflict.
Do not miss this highly instructive
and entertaining history, which will
be daily and Sunday feature in the
Inquirer during the next three
months of this semi-centennial year.
The Civil War will be the great
topic of the year and those who aim
to be we'll informed will find these
articles of inestimable value. If you
are nor a regular reader leave your
