Conditions Shop Favorable Turn.

an opportunity to force the Supreme
Court of the United States. to decide
what constitutes reasonable" grounds
for a strike
It is now recognized by both capital
and labor that strike is violation
Of the Sherman antitrust law Just as
is a pool in restraint of trade. The
court has said that reasonable" combi-
nations can be made, and Attorney Gen.
eral Wickersham, having announced that
he will enforce the Sherman anti-trus
law, will be compelled to prosecute
every labor union that declares a strike
Leading capitalists believe In combina-
Itions both of capital and labor, and they
believe in pools as we'll as in strikes
but both pools and strikes must be pros
ecuted.
Sales of OIL stock.
Sales Of old Standard OIL stock were
made at 6i5 in the same market. that
saw sales of the subsidiaries at 325, and
of the stock "ex-subsidiaries" at $40.
Thus the shareholders who split their
property before selling got $50 more a
share than those selling without doing
so. American Tobacco also showed con-
siderable strength in expectation of an
early announcement of a favorable plan
of reorganization.
Some very bad railroad reports were
made during the week, notable among
them being Northern Pacific, Great
Northern, and ST. Paul. The last named
showed that 1t did not earn its dividend
for July. The other two showed very
material decreases in net. Rumors were
current of bad reports soon to be issued
by the Gould railroads, and this had the
effect of sending Missouri Pacific IN the
lowest price of the year.
American Beet Sugar was the one con-
spicuously strong issue, and this was
due to the fact that refined sugar is
now selling at the highest price in twen-
ty years. The beet sugar company has
just harvested the greatest crop on rec
ord, and the company will put its COM
mon stock on a dividend basis of 4 per
cent before the end of the year.

POLITICAL TALKS
AT BALLSTON, VA.
Citizens Committee Holds
Big Mass Meeting.

The citizens committee of Alexandria
County held a meeting at BaIlston. Va,
last night in the knights Of Pythias
Hall. An enthusiastic audience gathered
from all parts Of the county to hear the
Endorsement of candidates and the dis
cussion of local politics.
w. w. Wright discussed the land ques-
ton and criticised the present county
officers for Withholding funds that were
urgently needed to keep the schools of
the county open. Frank B. Lyon con-
trasted the present fine condition of that
department of county affairs that is con-
roled by the county attorney, Crandal
Mackey, with the condition that prevailed
in former days under the saloon system.
1t would be a crime, he said, to return,
even in the slightest degree, to the meth
DDS of former days. His references to
Crandal Mackey and his eminent fitness
for the Office were met with enthusiastic
applause.
Several candidates for local offices were
present. Among them were George H.
Rucker, county clerk; Harry Thomas,
deputy county clerk, who is supported by
the citizens against Mr.. Rucker; Curtis
B. Gram and w. H. Duncan, who are
candidates for the office of commissioner
OF revenues. D. B. Wheeler presided,
The earnestness of the speakers and the
close attention of the large audience went
Tar to indicate that all citizens of the
county are now aroused to a full sense
Of their public duties, and that a closely
contested election may be looked for in
November.

HARMON ASSAILS
TAFT ON TARIFF
Says Executive Erred When
He Vetoed Bills.

Boston, Sept. 9.-Gov. Judson Harmon,
Of Ohio, in an address before the Boston
Democratic clubs tonight, scored Presi-
dent Taft for his attitude toward revis-
ion Of the tariff He declared that the
President had been woefuIly and wrong
fully advised or he would not have
vetoed the bills passed at the special
session.
His position is simply that those who,
by trickery of tariff making, have ap-
parently secured a license to impose ex-
orbitant prices on the American people
shall go on doing it in spite of what
Congress may do said the governor,
until five men who are not responsible
to the people shall advise him how much
these taxes ought to be reduced and how
to do 1t scientifically.
He admits they are too high on those
absolute and universal necessities of life,
but he fears these bills may have cut
them too much
Not content with calling the majority
in Congress unscientific, incompetent, and
ignorant" continued Gov Harmon
though in his vetoes he did so in par
liamentary phrase, the President now in
public speeches, charges them with in
sincerity, employing the ruder language
of the stump He says they were play
ing politics.
Let our friends in Congress take heart,
for If what they have done is playing
politics. the people will cry, Go on with
the game The tariff never will be taken
prostituted for private gain and those
who get or wish to get the gain can con-
troll the organization of one of the great
parties"
The Washington herald., 1911-09-10

New York, Sept. 9-New low records
for the year were made in Wall street
to-day as a direct result of the govern
ment crop report of the previous day.
This report confirmed the worst fea-
lures of the August report and caused
free liquidation of securities. Prices de-
clined up to the very close of the ses-
sion. The speculative interest was a
free seller of short stocks and made no
attempt to cover.
The United States Steel Corporation
announced that untitled orders on Its
books at the end of August were 900
tons greater than at the end OF July.
The number of idle cars has been re-
duced 1859 since the previous report
two weeks ago.
Liquidation has peen in progress
throughout the week. In the beginning
it was cautious, but toward the close
selling became more urgent. The de-
cline continued until several new low
records were made on announcement by
the government that crop conditions
had not improved during the month of
August The September report, pub
lished on Friday, simply confirmed that
of the previous month. There will be,
according to this report something like
116, 900, 600 bushels more of corn than ex-
pecteu lhe previous Inonlh, Uul tne nay
crop will be 100000 tons less and wheat
will be about 100000 bushels less.
Crop Report Is Bad.
This crop report furnished the only
reason necessary for the decline in the
market, as the fact that it would be a
bad report was well understood by the
leading interests.
1t is beginning to look as though there
would be no strike on the Hartman
lines, either the Illinois Central or the
Union Pacific.
The men have asked for arbitration,
but the roads will refuse to arbitrate
because arbitration would be recognition
Of the new union. The railroads have
decided definitely to make an open fight
If necessary. The directors will do moth
ing to avert a strike, and will welcome

HEAD
GETS AUTOMOBILE

From now on the youngsters who use
the Fairgrounds throughout Washington
may expect from time to time to see a
small runabout pass them, a kindly faced
man stop and hear the invitation TO
come and take a ride.
Whenever l can give a youngster a
lift, I'll do it," said Z. S. Martin, drec-
tor of the District Fairgrounds, last night
And that is a promise.
Director Martins new automobile ar
rived yesterday, all packed up and ready
for use. 1t was part of the agreement
of the officers of the Fairgrounds when
he came here, and, so he says, is a
promise that has been we'll fulfilled.
The automobile is to be used primarily
to assist Mr.. Martin in getting to and
from the different Fairgrounds. But he
has agreed to give the youngsters ride,
and it's a safe bet they'll make him coma

MAN WHO REFUSES
TO WINK INHUMAN
Capital Doesn't Need Female
Washers, Says Inspector.

1t is the opinion of Harry L. Cess
ford, police inspector, stationed at the
District Building, that there are as many
young women as men mashers strolling
the streets of the city.
Conditions are not so bad here as in
other cities" said the inspector yester-
day, but there are always a good many
flip young men and women on the streets.
1 don't think that the men ought to get
all the blame, as there are many women
masherS in Washington.
Il am not in a position to say what
will be done by the superintendent, but
1 hardly think he will resort to the
plan of employing young girls to decoy
mashers, as has been done in some
cities. Conditions are not so serious in
the Capital as to warrant much con-
sideration from the police department.
Personally, 1 don't think much of the
plan Some of the girls employed are
so attractive that a man wouldn't be
human who could pass by such a fairy
creature without tipping her a wink"

FLEES TO ESCAPE
TILTED SUITORS

Paris, Sept. 9.-Mrs. Inez Sprague Sti-
ness, whose divorce was announced ten
days ago. left Unexpectedly to-day by the
Lorraine for New York. The reason of
the rush is to avoid the opportunities of
two titled foreigners who have been
pressing their suits almost tragicaIly since
the divorce.
The suitors are Marquis de Villeneuve
and Count d,Avenel. The marquis. a
hero of the Boer war, has thrown up a
government position in Indo-China to
marry the beautiful daughter Of former
Gov. SpragUe, of Rhode Island. He is
thirty years of age, while his rival, 1.-The
count, is only twenty-five.
When Mrs. StanislauS Borde, mother
Of Inez Sprague Stiness, heard that the
whole property of the marquis consisted
Of a ramshackle chateau and a jeweled
sword presented him by President
Kruger, she ordered her daughter back
to America.
Immediately the marquis and the count
met at Saint Lazare station TO see her
on. Angry words and an exchange of
cards passed between them as the train
steamed out OF the station, and 4 duel
Is expected. To your correspondent Mrs.
stiness said:
Il don't want another husband any,
