about ten times the value of that fn-g ported. The exports have fallen ofrI but slightly under the reduction or duties and such diminution as has taken place is accounted for by thel general depression affecting all thel | principal markets. At the same time there has been a slight falling off fn the imports due to the diminished demand. If our manufacturers cant meet their foreign rivals in neutral markets and sell there in competftfon} with them ten times as much as ourd markets take from them, they can-l not be suffering severely from lack of protective duties. The conditions which make it unprofitable for thosel rivals to dump their surplus into this country must have some other causel than low duties. 1t is the same lacld of demand that affects the market fors cur own producers.
 Another remark of Judge Gary ixf that "we have reason to expect thatl under the present tariff law the earn-l ings of manufacturers will not be aE large as they ought to be in order to1 furnish to the investor a fair returnl on the capital actually invested ind his business or the payment to hisl
 
 should be entitled to receive" Tn thel iron and steel business, unfortunately.l much of the capital actually in-l vested as 1t stands today, especiallw that of the Steel corporation, has beenj invested out of earnings in excess of payments of interest and dividends upon a grossly inflated capitalization on paper. That seriously weakens thol plea from that quarter. The chasr-i man of the corporation speaks with regret of the possible necessity of re- ducing wages, which he also attributes to the tariff, but if the effect of that is to cause reduction in prices. not only of iron and steel but of other things as well, will it not in the goofl time coming, which the judge an- ticipates, lower correspondingiy the, cost of the things which wages pavl fer? What matters in everyboiy'a income, whether from wages on salaries or profits of business. is not the figures in which it is reckoned.i but the means of living and enjoyinsl life which it will command If hfghl wages are accompanied by corres-J pondingly high prces for everything. what does it profit a man? If therea is less cost of production with. greater. abundance, those who work and thoseI who trade may be alike better off-l though the figures in their incomm and outgo are smaller. NT'

Steel Trade and Tariff.

( New York Journal of Commerce)
 Judge Gary, just before starting on his trip abroad, made a parting ad- dress to the presidents of the sub salaries of the great steel corpora tion of which he is the official head, in which he referred to the causes Of depression in the iron and steel and other industries. After referring to general causes affecting other coun- tries as well as this, he said that in this country "the depression has been worse than in many others" He did not. so far as appears in the published reports attribute this to antitrust legislation, actual or proposed, but he remarked that in his judgment 'the tariff law lately passed has adversely affected the business conditions of this country" He spoke of it es- pecially as it affected the iron and steel business. He said that while the imports of iron and steel in this country may not be large as com- pared with the total of our produc- tion, yet if they are not large it will be because the prices are so low that the foreign manufacturers cannot afford even to dump their surplus into this country"
 How is it that in referring to the effect of the tariff those who plead their need of protection refer only to imports of foreign products which compete with their own? We have been. exporting iron and steel of late to the value of from $250,00O, 900 to $3O0,000,o00 a year, which is just

Fourth of July. Many of the men worked from fourteen to sixteen hours on that day and they had tidy sum as reward for their services.
 Under the old management. extra compensation was allowed them for the Fourth and other holidays when traffic was exceptionally heavy but among the motormen and conductors it was reported that the new owners would not continue the practice. An examination of their pay envelopes yesterday proved that their fears were groundless.
 Can't Get Expenses.
 Compensation Commissioner Chand- Ter has notified Harold E.. Reed of this place, that some features Of his decision recently given against the Orient Music company of Forestvlile. in Reeds favor, were not property interpreted and that benefits of $5 week for the time he is incapacitated are all that he is entitled to. MT. Reed received check for ss1.50 a few days ago from the in- surance company with which the Orient people carried policy. He understood, however, that Commis-
  the company instead of employing a regular physician or surgeon to at tend him at the time he was in- jured, engaged a chiropractor, 1t would have to pay the bills of doc tors employed by Reeds parents.
 The commissioner states that Tn writing the decision he did not mean to convey this impression and that Reed himself is liable for the bills of his doctors

nIs. Edwin Peck Of Becklcy Passes
 Away Rather Suddenly.
FUNERAL OF MSS CATHERINE NORTH
Impressive Services Held at Berlin Congregational Church = X-Ray Photo Taken of Lucy Goodwin's 
 Arm-Camp Balloon Found.

Many local people who have att ter ded the schools in this town will be shocked to learn of the death of Mrs Edwin Peck of Beckley yester- day at the home of her father-in-law, H. F. Peck, of Bethany, Conn. Be- fore marriage, she was Miss Mary sArn1ina Dohrenwendt, teacher, at one time, in the Christian Lane school and later in the West Rocky Hill school, and was very popular with her pupils.
 Mrs Peck was the daughter of MT. and Mrs. Charles Dohrenwendt of Feckley Quarter and leaves, besides her husband and two children, Harold Lester, aged four years, and Leona Fioise, aged four months; her parents, i. and two brothers, Frank Dohrenwendt of New Britain and Charles Dohren- .vIendt of Hartford
 The funeral will be held at 8 o'clock Sunday afternoon from the home of MT. and Mrs. H. F. Peck in Bethany. An interesting fact in con- nection with the services is that they will be conducted by Professor E. E. Nourse of Berlin, who performed the 1arriage ceremony almost six years ago. when the deceased woman be- came the bride of MT. Peck. Burial will be in Bethany.
 Mrs Peck was born in Middletown foffy-one years ago. Soon after that time her parents moved to Beckley Quarter and she resided there all her life. She attended the local schools and. about eighteen years ago, ac- ccpted "a position as teacher here She taught for period of about four years after which she took position assa stenographer in New Haven.
 She travelled extensively and was in San Francisco, Cal, at the time of the big earthquake, which destroyed al- most the entire municipa,ti~ barely escaping with her life when the building, in which she was staying. toppled over.
 The death of Mrs. Peck came very unexpectedly. She had been in deli cate health for some time past and was on her way to spend the Fourth of July in Bethany with her two children, when she became quite i'll on the train.

The balloons sent up were present. ed to the camp by Dr. Erastus P. Swasey of New Britain, who took a great interest in the camp, which was made up of about two dozen local school children.
 Pastor Leaves.
 Rev. Samuel A. Fiske, pastor of the Berlin Congregational church, left immediately after the funeral of Miss Catherine M. North this afternoon for Silver Bay, N. Y., where he is to rep resent the Christian Endeavor society of his church at the missionary edu- cation conference. .
 MT. Fiske had planned to leave Ber- lin on Wednesday, but deferred his trip upon learning of the death of Miss North, who was one of his most prominent parishioners.
 Mrs. Fiske and children, Samuel and Victoria, will be the guests of rel atives in Hartford during the pastors absence. When he returns the entire family will leave for a vacation at York s Camps, Loon Lake. Me.
 Closes Brick Plant.
 Owing to the depression of the brick business. just at present. Murray Brothers have closed down their Clay ton. brickyard for. the year. Richard Murray told a Herald man today that, unless business picks up during the next few weeks, he may be obliged to close down the plant in Berlin, as there is a sufficient supply of brick to supply the demand as it is.

Sig nor Battisti a short time ago was charged by Austria with high treason for having come to Italy to make speeches in favor of the annexation of Trent and Trieste by Italy.
 The Socialist candidates representing Hfeltre, in turning from the contest said that The election of Signor Bat tistf must also be a protest against the infamous war which compels Ita1- ians under Austria to fight for aa cause that is not their oWn.''
