Uanna Has Sore Thing
Journal Bureau,
Washington, D. G, November 8. i
Washington is likely to Bee miicli of
t'te wire pulling that will be done by the
republicans who would like to succeed
Senator Gorman, as at least three of the
gentlemen spend practically all their
lima at the National Capital. Those
who would like to be Senators from
Maryland are Postmaster General Uiiry,
Judge McComas, of llio Supreme Court
of the District of Columbia, and Repre
sentative Mudd. Governor Lowndes,
who is also credited with a desire to sit
in the Senate, likewise spends considera
ble time in Washington, being a member
of the famous Metropolitan Club. One
of these gentlemen has formally an
nounced himself to be a candidate for
the Senate, but they are each being
pushed for the position, by friends, and
there are others who would not object to
the plum.
Commissioner of Pensions Evans, not
only fails to predict, as Ins predecessors
in that office did, un early decrease in
the number of pensions paid by this gov
ernment, but calls attention to the fail
ure of such predictions. At the close of
the fiscal year, June 30, there were
976,014 pensioners on the rolls, a net in
crease in a year of 5,338. The annual
repoit of the Uommisssoner doesn't say
so, but all Hie same, it is reasonably cer
tain that the net increase of pensioners
for the current fiscal year will be much
larger than during the. last fiscal year,
owing to the change of policy in the
conduct of the pension bureau, which
now gives preference to applications for
original pensions. The Commissioner
makes two recommendations, which
seem to be in line with everyday busi
ness sense. First, that a complete list of
the names and addresses of pensioners
I be published, and second, that Congress
make it illegal for the widon-sof veterans
of the late war who marry lifter this time
to draw pensions. The last is intended
to break up the demoralizing pructice,
the extent of which is extraordinary, of
women marrying the old soldiers when
they are ou their death-beds, solely for
the purpose of drawing a widow's pen
sion. Under existing laws, pensions
cannot be denied to these women, even
wheu Ibey are known to be disreputa
ble.
The treaty between the I". S., Japan
Russia, by which it is agreed that the
killing of seals in open sea in Retiring
Sea and the north Pacific Ocean shall lie
temporarily suspended, having been
signed by the Itepreseutatives of the
several governments, the work of the
first sealing conference is closed, mid this
week, the second conference, between
the U. 8.. Great Britain and Canada, will
meet. Interest has been increased in this
conference by the intimation that the
Canadian officials intend to try to nego
tiate a treaty which will include some
sort of commercial reciprocity between
the U. S. and Canada.
If President McKinicy and other prom
inent Ohio Republicans in Washington
take any stock in the numerous stories
appearing In print, alleging the existence
of serious doubt of the election of Senator
Ilanna by the Ohio legislature, Ihcy hide
it well, for to a man they insist that
Senator Hanna's election is assured.

Washington, November 8. The Uni
ted States Supreme Court has decided
that Theodore Durant must hang for the
murder of Blanche Laraont at San Fran-
WreckMR-e fl" North t'arollnn.
New York, Nov, 6. An immense
amount of wreckage is adrift off the
Nortb Carolina Coast, according to a re
port made by Captain Robinson, of the
Clyde Line steamship George W. Clyde.
The wreckage included a vessel's
hatches, parts of deck houses, a number
of large timbers and an improvised raft.
Widows titling; to Klondike,
New York, November 7 More than
5,000 men and women went to the East
river today to inspect the steamer City of
Columbia and some of the adventurous
passengers and queer out tits she is to
carry around the Horn and up to the
gold fields of Alaska before that region
thaws out in the spring.
Mrs. Hannah S. Gould, a sprightly
widow, who as she says, is going to carry
a band of -'sixty widows and bachelor
maidens" to the Klondike, was on deck
narly all day receiving visitors and as
sisting Captain Baker and Edward C.
Machcn in explaining the details of the
proposed voyage of nearly 20,000 miles.
The Columbia which is to leave this
port December 1, will carry about 400
passengers, nearly all from New York.
She is a 2,000-ton s'eamship and was
formerly of the Old Dominion Line.

The outcome of the recent Middleton
election confirms the belief that Liberal
ism in England is in the ascendant.
Tuere bus been a big decrease in the
number of the yellow fever cases in New
Orleans. Few places are now quaran
tined against New Orleans and there has
been a general revival of business.
Chinese coal miners are to lake the
places of Americans in the Northern
Illinois district. An attempt will be
made to break the etrikc that exists, and
800 skilled Celestials have been picked
for the work. They will all bear arms,
will live inside the gatling-guu-cquipped
stockade and will lie guarded by 100
Chicago ex-policemen.
Marine fire-bugs have recently started
incendiary fires in the holds at Charles
ton, S. C, of three European outgoing
steamships, loaded with over 100,000
bales of cotton, and the City Council has
increased the reward for arrest to
$15,000.
Indications now are that the aggressive
fight between the American Sugar lielin
ingj Company and the Arbuckles, who
have long controlled the coffee trade, will
be continued with icnewed vigor. A
prolonged fight between these powerful
interests must redound to the benefit of
the consumer, as it means lower prices
for both refined sugars nnd coffej iu the
lomestic trade, which they respectively
control.

New York, Friday, Nov. 5, 1807.
Dkar SIR: The market reached the
lowest prices touched this season, this
morning, January delivery sold at 5.71
which is within per pound of the lowest
readied in 1894 wheu stocks of the
world were 800,000 bales more than at
present. It may be said we have al
ready passed the point that conservative
operators consider it prudent to follow
the short side and yet the markets still
labors under precisely the same conditions
which have led to trie continuous decline
since the season opened. Trade is back
ward aud uncertain consequently mills
feel Justified in pursuing the policy of
buying only moderately.
The crop la large beyond all question
so that speculation on a broad scale has
been Blow to develop. The planter mean
while markets his crop with the usual
freedom and to make sales is contiuually
forced to make concessions. How long is
this thing to go on ? No one denies that
prices are very low and most people
admit thut they are already below the
cost of production. Rasing their calcula
tions of this one part namely, that cotton
canuol be raised for 5c per pound, strong
parties have already entered the market
and will buy further as the market de
clines. If there Is to be substantial sup
port given it evidently must come from
investment buying, Ws don't mean pur
chases made on $1.00 per bale margin
but purchases by those prepared to
protect their holdings and buy more
if the price declines. But we must
nave some substantial support if present
values are to ne.
Yours truly,
Eob't. Moori & Co.,
