AMERICAN LABOR 15 FAR SUPERIOR Britons NoteAdvantages of the Toilers in This [ Country. i s Visitors Talk of Valuable Observations During Their Tour. Al X NEW YORK, Nov. 29.—Alfred Moseley, the retired English merchant, who, with a number of workmen, has made a six weeks' tour ‘of this country to study in- dustrial conditions here and in Canada, ‘Our trip, on the whole, was eminently satisfactory. We were all impressed with the thorough up-to-dateness of everything We saw. Another thing that impressed us was the courtesy and frankness of Amer- iean ‘employers and the pains they were willing to take to -explain the methods in use ‘at their - respective factories and workg."” All the delegates will report their im- pressions to the unions of their respective trades on their return to England. Terrence Flynn of the Tailors’ said: “Counting the extra outlay in rent and clothing—for food and all else are cheaper —the American workman is 25 per cent better off than the workman in England. On the whole he is far better cared for in respect . to good sanitation, general comfort and better equipment than we are, and on the whole he lives as long or longer harness than the English workman. This ‘tco old at fifty’ prin- ciple - does mot-prevail among the work- men wherever else it may be found. We speak from observation.

Early this morning the man sent word to the office of the hotel that a doctor was needed in their room at once, as the woman with him was dying. Dr. String- field, the house physician, hurried to the room and upon his arrival found the wo-/ man just breathing her last. There weré no marks of violence upon her body and appearances go to prove the story of the man that she died of heart disease. The police were notifled at once and the man taken into custody. He declared that O'Donnell was his name and at first refuscd to give the name of the young woman. Later he said that she was Miss Laura J. Patee of Springfield, Ill.

Suppose you feed a man ten pounds of sugar (which is nearly all pure nourishment). Would his system absorb ten pounds? He would probably be made sick and really lose weight and strergth. But suppose you prepared the sugar so he could quickly digest and as- similate it and absorb into his system the nourishing properties of it, is it not clear that half a pound of such food would furnish him more nourishment that his system would absorb than the ten pounds, i or even fifty pounds of raw sugar? That is exactly the case with Grape- Nuts. The elements of wheat and barley are scientifically treated in exactly the way the human body treats them to ac- complish the first act of digestion, that is the change of starch into Grape Sugar.

The preparatory pro- cess undoubtedly converts the food constituents into a much more digestible condition than in the raw cereal. This is evident from the remarkable solubflity of the preparation, no less than one-half of it being soluble in cold water. The soluble portion contains chiefly dextrin and no starch. In appearance ‘Grape- Nufs’ resembles fried bread crumbs. The grains are brown and crisp, with a pleasant taste, not unlike slightly burnt malt. According to our analysis the fol- lowing is the composition of ‘Grape-Nuts' Moisture, 6.02 per cent; mineral mat 201 per cent; fat, 1.60 per cent; proteids, 15 per cent; soluble cflrbnhydrntel. ete., 49.40 per cent, and unaltered carbohy- grates (insoluble), 25.97 per cent. The fea- tures worthy of note in this analysis are the excellent proportion of proteid, min- eral matters and soluble carboydrates per cent. The mineral matter was rich in rhosphoric acid. ‘Grape-Nuts’ is describ- ed as a brain and nerve food, whatever that may mean. Our analysis, at any rate, shows that it is a nutritive of a high order, since it contains the constit- ucnts of a complete food in a very satis- factory and rich proportion and in an easily assimilable state.” Postum Cercal Co., Ltd., Battle Creck, Mich. the greatest med- ical authoritics in the world, has to say: Lieutenant Peary, Arctic Explorer, Talks About: ‘North Pole. P ST The Conditions Under Which Science Will Gain a Triumph. WASHINGTON, Nov. 29, — Lieutenant Robert E. Peary, the Arctic explorer, de- livered an address to-night before the Na- tional Geographical Society on the subject | of Arctic exploration. After discussing the Arctic explorations of the past, Peary, speaking of the ruture, said: “In spite of the amount of work which has been done in the north polar regions during the past few years, the work is| not complete. The archipelago of Franz Josef Land has, it'is true, been delimited and its northern terminus removed from the field of uncertainty. The lands north of the North American archipelago and | west of Ellesmere Land have also been de- limited as to their northern coasts. The northern terminus of the Greenland ar- chipelago has been rounded, and America holds the. record for the most northeriy land in the world, the northern point of the largest of the north polar land groups. But there are still several gaps to be filled before the north polar work can be considered finished. POINT TO REACH POLE. “And the head of the Smith Sound ‘gateway to the pole’ is the central point from which to close this work. It is the point from which can be reached and de- termined that stretch of still unknown coast on the castern shore of Greenland, reaching from Cape Bismarck to Cape Parish; the point from which can be reached and determined the interior rami- fications of the great fjord systems of Northern Greenland; the point from which can be reached and determined the gap in the coast line on the west coast of Grinnell Land, between Aldrich’s farthest and Sverdrup's farthest; the point from which the practically unknown land along the eastern side of Kennedy and Robeson channels can be reached, and the point from which the pole itself can and will be reached. “It may seem to indicate overconfi- dence to state boldly that the poie can be reached, and yet it is a fact, even though the struggle for it has been going on unsuccessfully for years and years. Each time we have come a little nearer, each time we have learned a little more, and I say to you here to-night that it is not an impossibility; that it can be reached; that it is no more difficult than many of the great projects which we see being pushed to completion every day and which require men of persistenee] hard work and some ability to bring to full fruition. AMERICANS MUST WIN. “The man who has the proper party, the proper equipment and the proper ex- perience, and can start fresh from the northern coast of Grinnell Land with the earliest returning light in February, | will hold within his grasp the last great | geographical prize that the earth has to | offer, 2 prize that ranks with the prize which Columbus won, and will win for himself and his countrymen a fame| that will last as long as human life ex- ists upon the' globe. Granted this, shall we let others win the prize from us? “Within the past five years the United Btates leaped to the front among the na- tions. Our industrial development and wealth startle the world to-day. Our in- fluence in diplomacy was never so great. Our men of sclence hold the attention of Europe. Our battleships show the high- est percentage of effectiveness. Our yachts win race after race from the highest forelgn talent. If there are any other prizes to be secured or any other races to be won, shall we be untrue to our Anglo-Saxon heritage and birthright of love of contest and adventure and let some one else capture the trophies, or shall we win them ourselves? “The north pole is the biggest prize the world has yet to offer; the race for 1t is the greatest race on earth. The winning of the international yacht race is for to-day only; the winning of the pole is for all time. “It should and must be won by Ameri- can dollars, American energy and Ameri- can ability.” PROBABLE WORK OF LAW-MAKERS Anti- Trust Legislation the First Task of Congress, There Will Be No Tariff Re- vision, but Three Territo- ries May Be Admitted. Special Dispatch to The Call. CALL BUREAU, 1406 G STREET, N. W., WASHINGTON, Nov. 29.—In a nut- shell, as Congress assembles for the short session the situation regarding import- ant legislation is becoming clearer, There will be a‘great contest over anti- trust legislation and an effort to prevent anything being done that the trusts do not want. There will be much opposition to reciprocity with Cuba. It is doubtful if any treaty can be ratified by the Sen- ate, and certainly not one that grants so large a reduction as 25 per cent. No tariff revision, no tariff legislation, and no tariff commission to study the question is the programme, Bllls admitting to statehood New Mexi- co, Arizona and Oklahoma have been passed by the House, and will come up in the Senate within ten days of the meeting of Congress. A great effort will be made to pass a bill providing for more flexibility of the currency) or for an “‘emergency circula- tion” of ‘national banks in time of strin- gency. It is probable that the House will pass the bill for a Department of Commerce, the bill having already passed the Senate, There seems to be little prospect of the House passing the Senate bill for a sub- sidy for shipping. The only thing that is absolutely cer- tain is that the annual appropriation bills will be passed. Californians in New York.

CALL BUREAU, 1406 G STREET, N. W.. WASHINGTON, Nov. 2.—October exports show a decided tendency toward recovery from the depression, due largely to the short corn crop of last®year and a redvced foreign demand for other bread- stuffs. The total exports for October were arger than those of any preceding month in the history of our ‘commerce, except October and December, 1900, and October, 1901. Exports of corn are, of course, less than in October of last year, by reason of the very great shortage in corn due to last vear's drought, the total value of corn exported in October, 1902, being $734,- 682, against $2348,640 in October of last year; while for the ten months ending with October the value of corn exports was $5,39,010, against $47,283,459 in the cor- responding months of last year. In wheat which had shown a material reCuction in exports in the last few inonths when compared with the extraor- dinary high figures of the corresponding months of the preceding year, the figures for October show a marked improvement, the total value of wheat exported in Oc- tober, 1902, belng $12,45%,688, against $10,- 515,414 in October of last year; while flour exports for October of the present year are valued at $7,243,914, as against $6,066,- 561 in October of last year. Breadstuffs as a whole show a. total of $21,900,802 in October, 1902, against $20,372,- 325 in Oetober, 1901. Exports of provisions and live animals are still below those of October of last year, the figures for O tober of the present year being $15,060,1 against $18,225,505; while for the ten months provisions and live animals show a fall in exports of $33,000,000 as compared | with the corresponding months of last year, and breadstuffs a fall of $81,000,000. The above figures, it should be under- stood, are from the preliminary state- ment of the Bureau of Statistics and are slightly below the final figures, which will no*. be completed until the close of the month.
