en en Nt MISS WINNIE DAVIS. “The Daughter of the Confederacy” and Her Br cen Engasement. New York, Oct. ment of Miss Winnie Davis, daughter of the confederacy,” Mr. Alfred Wilkinson of Syracuse 1s } “the and definitely bivken Tie principals authorize this announce ment te wi vet her in Mrs. Georg ters ay at the Fifth Av » hotel, Miss Du vis said: “1 do not care to talk about the breaking of my engagement. ane Suffice it to say that no mercenary niotive prompted + in the course I decided to ta Mr. Wilkinsoi al agree In regard to tt ul delicate health Miss Das is declared that, while not robust, means an invalid did me a world of gor “My travels are not over yet, either This winter my mother and T pro pose to make extended through South America. I was there an tour with my father when my recollectious of the country are very pleasant. My mother and I have rooms at the York hotel, but I have been most of my time with relatives and friends. In a few hours I leave for Mississip- piand I have been away 80 long that I really yearn to get home.” Returning to the subject of her secret engagement, Miss Davis man- ifested some signs of pique. “All this chatter about Mr. Wilkinson and myself is exceedingly annoying.” she exclaimed. “Mr. Wilkinson is an estimable young man. I thinka great deal of him and his family. That's all there is to it. As for my friends influencing me, that is ab- surd. The decision was left eutire- ly to myself. Many of my relatives in the south were particularly fond of Mr. Wilkinson. But,” said Mies Davis, checking herself and biting her lip, just perceptibly, “I don’t think such matters are for the pub lic. I prefer to keep personal af- fairs to myself. My reasons for adopting the course I have chosen concern my immediate family alone. They are perfectly satisficd with my conduct.” After Miss Dayis and her mother had taken their departure, Mrs. Cus ter gave it as her opinion that the rupture of the much talked atout engagement was due to personal reasons solely. “Miss Davis,” she explained, “is very self-willed, and likes to have her own way. She has been the idol of every aristocratic southern family since her birth and has formulated some very decided notions concerning the late war, which she never hesitates to express. I believe, although I have no right to asserf, that Miss Davis and Mr. Wiikinson agreed to disagree. “There is great disappointment among Mr. Wilkinson’s friends over the result of his noted engagement,” continued Mrs. Custer. ‘Many of them refuse to accept such reasons as I have detailed and persist in be- lieving that Mr. Wilkinson's finan- cial misfortunes are at the bottom of Miss Davis’ refusal to marry him. Mr. Wilkinson himself is too high minded to cherish such ideas for an instant.” w spending Trust Prices to Foreigners. St. Lonis Republic. When amerchant has slow sales and a large stock he booms his business by putting down his prices and invit ing his customers to come around to stock up with what they need and | he does not. That is business—le- | gitimate business. Wheu a protected manufacturer's trust is in the same condition; when it has a large stock and trade is dull because prices are high, it never gives its regular customers the ben- | fit. Instead of doing so it ships to foreigners just eacuy of what it has on hand to keep from being obliged to lower prices at home. And in every case where the tariff enables it to charge higher prices to its regular customers, it sells cheap- er to foreigners Thus forei; gers get the benefit of all the : and “special bargains” protected trusts.

John Wanramaker that his bargain counter will sell tin- ware and kitchen goods below the present prices as he laid in a large stock before the passage of the Mc- Kinley bill. The trusts sell a flat- bottomed kettle for 85 cents in Buenos Ayres for which the regular trust price in the “heme market” is $1.40. A Buenos Ayres housewife is offered an American griddle for 34 cents, which the American house- wife must 64 cents for. Table-knives for this market are sold to dealers at $4.36 a dozen, while dealers for the Buenos Ayres market can get same knife for $3.73. The goods thus exported are not 8 surplus left over after supplying the home demand. They are gotten rid of to prevent the home demand from being so fully suppled that home prices will fall. The trusts do not export at all except to keep from being obliged to sell cheap at home They give their good bar- gains to foreigners in order that they may collect at home the tariff tax difference between home and foreign prices. By selling cheaper to 1,000 foreigners they can thus go on sell- ing dear to 100,000 Americans. They are afraid if they sold cheap once to their regular customers hereat home they would have to keep on doing it. So they give foreigners the ben- efit of their bargains, and more than make up for it out of the home mar- ket. American custom- Mr. The President's Mind.
