Tellinq of a Conspiracy

There is no doubt considerable shivering in San Francisco. The Hon. Abraham Ruef. now in retirement in San Quentin prison, has begun the publication of his confession. He says that he co-operated with others in selling out the city" and now, after dwelling in a cell six by ten feet he has come to a full realization of the betrayal He names men and methods in a most impartial way and proceeds to tell how he "drifted with the ma chine
 He was associated with the machine for ten years and is thus qualified 10 tell a story. The graft prosecu tions have been stopped. but the print ing of Ruef's confession is to make it associates who are now at liberty while he is locked up. He declares that he started life buoyantly'' and had high ideals. but now seeks to tell many unpleasant truths, hoping that what he writes may prove of public benefit" and make amends for what society has lost" by his work.
 What the former boss has told and is to tell further may relieve his mind and make his conscience easier. but his former associates are no doubt squirming and wriggling. Nobody ever imagined that Ruef acted alone out assistance. He was made the one victim of the laws strong arm. and now he is seeking to do what the law did not appear able to do-pillory the men who made Ruef possible.

CHICAGO MARKET.

CHICAGO. April 13-A wild rush to buy wheat boosted the price four and quarter cents higher today. One firm suspended. The remarkable ad~ vance is due to increased alarm about crop damage said to affect 5O00O 900 bushels Although violent fluctua- tions intervened, the close was strong at prices running from 1cM1hc to 37scM 4c above last night All other leading staples joined in the upturn. Net gains were: Corn, 1c to 1Ac Oats a shade to lad5sc. Provisions. 71.cM15c. Confusion in the wheat pit reached such point that at one time quotations varied as widely as d full cent between sales made at the same instant by traders almost within arms length. Nearly every county in Illinois, Ohio and Indiana sent messages telling of injury or complete destruction of thousands of acres Margins are reported to have been called heavily on shorts.

 NEW YORK, April 13.-The course of today's stock market was again in the direction of irregularity>- and reaction. The opening showed a vast majority of declines. Some were over point, notably in Canadian Pa cific and Rock Island preferred. Acute weakness was reflected in American Smelling, and some more of the standard issues. United States Steel. which held its place as the most active of all stocks. was under selling pressure at the outset Other surface indications suggested renewal of operations for short accounts. In other ways the tone of the market pointed to an over-bought condition and unelsiness over the political sit uation. Final prices were in most cases the best of the day.

reduce rates as much as possible and at the same time the legislature pro poses taking from them their ability to meet the demands Could anything be more absurd?
 If we are to have the minimum of rates in this country the roads should have a free hand in making improve ments. They should be permitted to transport freight with the maX:mum of efficiency. And if they can trans port a hundred or hundred and fifty cars with single engine. why shouldn't they do it? And if it is a good thing 10 limit the number of cars in a train to seventy. why is it not a better thing to reduce the num- Der to seven? It will make trans portation slower and more expensive, to be sure, but it would meet the de- mands of Mr Bradner more perfectly than does the present bill

tax on the raw sugar needed by the United States, so that foreign sugar would cease to be cheaper. and the American people would pay the price
 In other words instead of fostering an industry at home we would con tribute to the support of foreign governments, and help to support foreign industries at the expense of American labor.
 And American capital now spent here for sugar would go abroad, and establish balance of trade. against us.
 Why should sugar be singled out for the slaughter. at the expense or American capital and American labor, in order to suit the purposes of the American Sugar Trust?
 If the sugar industry in Louisiana is destroyed, as it will be by the free sugar bill. the 30000 to 60,OOO men employed in the industry will have to seek other employment, to the injury of other branches of labor.
 If the free sugar bill becomes a law. the millions of dollars invested in it will shrink to very little, and the proceeds of the crops will be withdrawn from our local circulation.
 If the sugar trust succeeds in ob- taining free sugar for which 1t has been working for several years. the sugar lands of Louisiana being thrown upon the market for other purposes, will greatly decrease in value, there by directly affecting the value of all other agricultural projects now un- derway.
 The advocates of free sugar have only one argument, which facts and experience prove to he unsOund, and that is. that free sugar will save the average American family .S2.25 year in sugar
 Even if that were true. which IS not. we cannot believe that the av- craze American family would des- troy an investment of S1O0.00O.OOO, put 60.OO0 men out of employment in an established industry. cut one-third of the products of q state, reduce the value of thousands of acres of land, cheapen the price of labor, and generally disturb our commercial re- Iations and arrest our development for the paltry price of few ci- garettes.

The Bradner Bill

IL is a fact patent to every fair minded man that the present tendency among state legislatures is to regard the man Of large business interests as more or less an enemy of the public. This is true, especially. if these in- terests happen to assume corporate form. And more than all else il is true if the interests in question hap pen to he railroad interests. In this connection it may be said the Arizona legislature is no exception to the gen. eral rule.
 This antipathy has taken various forms: but. generally speaking, it may ne said the average legislature. view ing all railroad interests with distrust, is apt to favor anything and every thing a railroad man doesn't want, on the theory that that is the best and safest of all rules on which to pro- ceed
 IL is understood perfectly that q word spoken in behalf of justice and any corporate interest. at once invites ignorant and malicious accusation. However, that is of little consequence. The principal fact is that the lower house Of the Arizona legislature, in one of its railroad bills, has betrayed an almost inconceivable ignorance and stupidity
 This refers to the Bradner bill. lim- iting the number of cars in a freight train to seventy. It was first in tended to limit the number to forty But why should there be any limit?
 It is generally conceded that one of the crying needs of Arizona is lower freight rates. Everybody interested in an equitable adjustment of tariffs and a cheapening of the cost of shipments And the rates are going down. Some times voluntarily and sometimes in voluntarily. but they are going down. And now the legislature comes to the front in the face of reduction al- ready partly accomplished. with a proposition to make further reduction just as difficult as possible
 Everybody knows that within the past several years the railroads have been lowering their grades, laying heavier steel. and buying better equip ment for the purpose of meeting the demands for lower rates. of course, are making too much money and can well afford anywhere and at any time to make reductions But that asser- ton is not borne out by the record.
 There is hardly railroad in the United States that pays dividends to exceed six or seven per cent. But the moment that fact is advanced the as- sertion of "watered stock" is made. But the truth is the railroads of this country are capitalized lower than foreign roads, that are generally re- ferred to as models by the reform statesmen. It is also true that on American roads wages are immeas- urably higher This is not the sensa- tional kind of matter one is in the habit Of reading in the insurgent press. but it happens to have the merit of being true Tlf truth is not always pleasant but it is good thing once in awhile, nevertheless.
 All this for the purpose of calling attention to the short sighted policy outlined in the Bradner bill. It is de- manded of the railroads that they
