WIETTE AS A VALUABLE WITNESS

Thinks to Mr.. Wiehe, the truth has
| marched considerable distance in
the Lorimer 500, 600 fund affair. o.
perhaps we should say, the Helm CON
nittee and the state have taken sew
| eral further strides TOWARD The truth
For, passing over all contentious, dis
ruted and uncertain testimony. two
things, thanlts to Mr. Wiehe's admis-
SONS or voluntary explanations, stand
out in bold relief,
One is tina. the telephone conversl-
tion which was 50 puzzling before he
spoke was not with Governor Deneea
or Ex-Governor Yates, but with Mir
Lorimer whom Mr.. Hines, naturally
enough, coIloquially and Familiarity adj
drescsd as governor, in view OF his
fhrevious political boss ship and his
expected elevation TO a federal SEN
atorship. That even a man addicted
to careless talking would mention
s'mcney" as matter of course 10 any
ether governor" was incredible, and
any statements involving either Gov
ernor Deneen or Ex-Governor Yates In
the criminal phaA Of the Lorimer az
fair would have thrown grave doubt
on the entire testimony Of which they
formed part. But Mr.. Wiehe happily
cleared the atmosphere and contrib i
uted a strong link instead of mys-
tifying anomaly to the Cook-OBriel
testimony by revealing the identity u
the governor" as Mr.. Lorimer at the
other end Of the wire.
Again, Mr.. Wiehe admits that, a.
TIE emeggent request of Messrs. Lor,
mer and Hines, he paid midnight
visit TO the Grand Pacific Hotel AMI
urged Messrs Cook and O'Brlen &c
get out of the city for Gods sake.
giving as the reason for this extra
ordinary demand the fac. that
grand jury was sitting and the Wis
tors-who CHANGED to know too much
might be subpoenaed What these
visitors knew they had learned from
Mr.. Hines himself, and if a subpoena
was dangerous, ii stands to rea-

DErEEssIoN IN INDUSTRY.

While there are absolutely no
slgns IA that excitement which az
tens hard tines number OF cir
cumstancos indicate that just at pres
ent prosperity is not nearly so pre-
velent as it might be. Tie conf
tion is peculiar in that the depres-
sion is in an era of high prices q "a
this fact is one OF the best indlca-
lions that the high prices do not Pc,
sist as a result OF active demand,
hut are dee to artificial causes.
One OF the most sis1:-cant signs
of depression IS in the large increase
in cla,,as male on the insurance
companies transacting what is known
as industrial health and accident
business. These claims always swell
In volume when tines are hard The
working people take out the ilsur-
ance purely as matter o. protec-
ton. In the ordinary course or
things claims are rot made exec t
In case of really serioos, and ac,u-
ally disabling, accident and sickness
but when enforced idleness comes
sickness is simulated and trlflng ac-
ciderts magnified in order to realize
on the Insurance money.
But there is actual as well as
symrtomatic evidence of the pinch
of poye ty in the land. This may b.
found in the reduction Of imports,
showing lesser purchasing power
In the masses OF the people, The i'm.
Iorts for the month of March Just
past were some s24,0o0o00 iess than
for tie corresponding Month last
year. An analysis of the va ious
classes Of imports in which the re.
fuctions are saown reveals 81 MI.
\ cant facts.
The decline in crrde rul0r IS al
\ trdbrtatlc In Fart to the reduction
In price, but even when this is a..
courtel for 1t Is plain that there
has been a decided slackening OF
operations in those industries which
use crude rubber for raw material.
lhe same depressed condition is
plain In the in,-s ti.es Using raw
wool and hides and skins and the
4 other materials included in the
table.
Not only II there comparative In
n activity In manufacture, but IN buy
ing ais we'll.
AS indicated the decrease in the
consumption of Injuries it may be
noted that the importations OF cham.
payne were only 100000 for March,
1911, as against 81 100000 for March
OF last year Hence It seems that in
many important lines Of manufacture
operations are restricted for one
cause or another, and as this res
friction Of operations means less
wages paid, the purchasing power
OF the masses Is to that extent re.
duced. AS already noted, there are
absolutely no signs Of excitement
and 1t III ID be hoped that the causes
of depression will shortly pass and

bring about that peace and plenty

 The American consul general at Han kow, China, Robert Brent Mosher, has communicated with his government asking that gunboat be sent to pro- tect American interests in the event of a continuation of the rioting. The dis orders began following the circulation of a report that the British police had killed a coolie. The man had been picked up by the police when he was near death. During the rioting consld- erable damage was done, and British and German marines were landed from gunboats in the harbor to defend the foreign community.

CARNEGIE, PEACE HEAD,
 SAYS FOUTIFY CANAL
Forts Would Never Fire Shot Unless Against World Enemy"

Andrew Carnegie, who sat near Pre-, sident Taft at the Pennsylvania so- ciety dinner Saturday night when the latter urged the fortifcation of the Panama canal, gave a statement to the New York correspondent of the Central News of London.
 ''This question of the fortification of the Panama canal is greatly exercising the advocates of international peace, but it is not an international question.
 ''No nation disputes our right to fortify. Our right Is as clear as our right to fortify New York or New Or. leans, but 1t is not a warlike project, being purely defensive. These forts, if built, will never fire a shot unless the canal is in danger from an enemy an enemy which would be the enemy of other nations as we'll as ours, be cause injury to the canal would mean serious interference with the worlds commerce. t
 ''The president gave evidence of his peace loving tendency at the Pennsyl, vania society dinner when he said that if he had his way and was able to se- cure the consent of other powers he would submit to the senate arbitra. ton treaties broader in their terms than any now existing between na. tions." #.
