Thi: rovement hgs helped to accen- tuate the necessity of “seed grain im- provement,” and good results may be cxpected shortly from planting seed that is uniform in size and as to time of germination and ripening, to which little care has been given heretofore. The results of the late Federal elec- people and discussion in the press. The Melbourne- Argus in an editorial lately summed these up as follows: The Federal elections have resulted in a de- clded accession to the ranks of the labor mem- bers. In the Senate they have gained no fewer than six seats, {our at the expense of the Min- istry, two at ‘the cost of the Opposition. In the House of Representatives the supporters of the Ministry have dwindled from 32 to 26, the Opposition remaining at 27, while the Socialists have mounted from 16 to 22. The Ministry is thus rewarded for its_submission to the labor leaders in the last Parliament. Far as it went, it did not go far enough; and the commonwealth has now learned that noth- ing will satisty the extremists but the return of men pledged to the strictest party diecl- pline and bound to carry the soclalistic pro- gramme to its furthest limits. The Sydney Morning Herald says: The position of the Minlstry in the new Federal Parllament does not promise to be a comfortable one. The result of the Federal elections has placed Mr. Deakin, Premier, and the party he leads in a clear minority, both the Opposition and Labor being numerically etronger. Ministers depend, no doubt, on the support of Labor members, but shat is not a condition of things which either Ministerial- ists or the country can view with much com- placency. The terms of such ‘support were lald down in the Labor manifesto, and it is difficult to see how any Ministry with the least shred of self-respect or sense of consti- tutional responsibility could accept them, how & wholesome public opinion could 'tol- erate a government which surrendered its au- thority on such terms, The Argus again says: The issue of the triangular fight which must take place between parties in the Fed- eral Parliament s very difficult to predict. On the one side there is Mr. Deakin, with a party in the House of Representatives of twenty-six members (including Mr. Kingston), and in the Senate of six or seven. Opposed to h , with a party of twenty-seven straight-ou positionists (we are presuming kwood wins the Riverina seat), that Mr. ty-two in one House and fifteen in the other. There is little doubt that Mr to gain the support of the Labor party by conceding all that the constitution allows him to mive. | After discussing the probable pro- gramme as to the arbitration, old age pensions, high commisisoner, and Federal capital bills, which will be amang the first considered, the Ar- gus winds up by saying: “The out- look is most uncertain and far from Prime Minister in a circular invited joint action of all the of the commonwealth in of again attracting immi- its.

A mobilization order for the naval reserve would surprise few people in Australia if war becomes imminent. In an editorial entitled “War and Australian Defense,” the Argus says: The gonsiderations suggested by these things easily raise the question as to what Australia is ready to do in her own defense 1 the event of war being declared and Great Britain being drawn into the conflict: or, se: { ondarily, in the event of Japan emerging v | torious” from a single-handed conflict * with | Russia.

A revort has been received by the Minister for Mines and Agriculture from J. B. Suttor, Government com- mercial agent in the East, on the sub- ject of trade with the Philippines. He says the outlook certainly appears very 8ood for New South Wazles’ products, and in all interviews it was impressed fupon him that the New South Wales | manufacturers should have a commer- cial museum at Manila, so as to show our products to the best advantage. In the report Mr. Suttor remarks: “The trade of the Philippines is worth mak- ing a great effort to capture. During | the next twelve months no stone should be left unturned to obtain a proper footing.” ——— Eloper Receives His Pardon. SAN JOSE. Feb. 4.—Walter N, Williams, the youth who a few months ago eloped from Santa Clara with his landlady's daughter, leaving a board bill unpaid, for whlc}l he was sentenced to six months in the Coun- ty Jail, and who a few days ago mar- ried the girl, received his pardon to- day from Governor Pardee.

Foraker also spoke, devoting | himself largely to a comparison of con- ditions under the Harrison administra- tion and those under the administration of Cleveland, to the advantage of the former. On the Democratic side Gorman and Bailey were the orators. Gorman ex- plained his attitude toward the army {and navy and charged that at the close lof the Harrison administration the | treasury of the United States was in| !a very bad way. Baiiey followed up | this charge with an elaborate presenta- | tion of statistics and contended that the export trade of the United States | der Harrison. The exposition amend- | | ment had not been disposed of when | the Senate adjourned. Newlands of Nevada denied Spoon- | er's charge that in his speech at Omaha | | ne had repudiated the anti-imperial- | | istic issue. Speaking of the recently | | negotiated treaty with Cuba Newlands | | said that we were seeking exclusive | | privileges in that island, because trust | prices were such in the United States | that we could not compete with other | { countries in our Cuban trade on a| natural basis. FAVORS A STRONG NAVY. Lodge defended the Republican ad- | ministration against the charge of neg- | lecting other affairs in the interest of | the army and navy. He considered that the navy outweighed all others of | our institutions in importance and that | it was the “last place to economize and | | the first place to spend.” He would | | economize, if economize we must, in | expositions and fairs and not on the | defense of the country. Gorman disclalmed any intention to | follow Lodge in comparing the Cleve- | | land administration with others, for it could not be made fairly. Yet it was, | he said, fair to say that Cleveland had been compelled to meet.a condition in | the treasury so serious that a Repub- Secretary of the Treasury had aid that bankruptcy was threatened. Certainly the Democratic adminigtra- tion was not responsible for that con- dition. | Commenting on the present condition of the country's finances Gorman said {that it was due to the immense ex- penditures made in preparation for war | —-$82,000,000 last year for the navy and $118,000,600 for the army—in a time of | profound peace. He denied that he | had been an enemy of the upbuilding | of the nav. On the contrary he \\'ould]‘ have a navy ample to guard American interests everywhere. But he had no | idea of a navy to compete with that uf} Great Britain or Germany, because our | conditions did not require such a navy. He did not want a navy for display, | but for service. “I want economy in it,”” he said, and | he called attention to the effectual aid | given to Venezuela during the Cleve- | { land administration. COST OF OUR SEA FORCE. “We did that,” he said,” as a cost of | 1$16,000,000 a year, and now we pay | $82,000,000 a year for a navy which is to threaten Colombia.” He would reduce the expenditures in the navy and he would scale the | {army down from 100,000 men, as now | authorized, to 50,000 men. | | Gorman commended the removal of ‘our fleet from the scene of trouble in | the Orient by order of the Président, | saying the brave commander of the fleet would like a part in any trouble. { It was rumored, he went on, in high naval circles that the United States was marching around_the globe with a chip on its shoulder with a taunt to Germany to knock it oft. Foraker announced his support of | the exposition amendment and ex- pressed regret that the question should have been given a political hue. He | expressed surprise at Gorman's re- marks concerning the condition of the finances of the country at the close of Harrison's administration. He re- called the panic of 1893, which, he declared, was precipitated by the elec- tion of Cleveland on a platform pledg- ing the repeal of the McKinley tariff | law and the substitution of a tariff fer | revenue only. Patterson of Colorado asked For- aker how he accounted for the cut in | the wages of the textile and steel { workers and the miners of the bitu- minous coal fields, in view of his con- | tention that prosperity was uninter- rupted. | FORAKER DEFENDS THE ARMY. Foraker replied that the reduction | of the wages In textile workers was | due to the advance in the price of | lruflon. As for the other reductions, | it was no unusual thing to make | changes in wages. He defended the | | army and said it cost relatively more than that of other countries because | it was composed of citizens temporar- lican zens. Bailey said that no one party was responsible for all that was good in of God and man. It was not true, he said, that thé Democratic party was the party of hardetimes. He added: “Unpopular as was Mr. Cleveland, he was not more so than will be the man whom you will elect next Novem- ber, if you elect one. In fact, I have never known of a candidate whom so many favor and so few want as the present occupant of the White House.” Pyrography outfits, cameras, albums signed the petition for his pardon. and books on mxato{nah in the artists’ material department. San| Vail & Co.* | ceed Baron Gives LEVITY CLOSES HOUSE SESSION Dalzell and Grosvenor Com- pete for the Distincetion of Moving an Adjournment —_— e — e DIPLOMATIC BILL PASSES S Measure Carries a Trifle Less Than Two Million Dollars and Is Not —_— WASHINGTON, Feb. 4—The anima- tion of yesterday was completely lack- ing in the proceedings of the House to- day. The principal feature of the day was the rivalry between Republican leaders for the honor of moving an ad- journment. The diplomatic and consu- lar appropriaticn bill had been disposed of, and Chairman Hitt, in charge of the measure, left early, as did Payne, the floor leader. Hitt requested Dalzell to “watch things” and move to adjourn when the proper time came. Payne met Grosvenor in the corridor on going out and asked him to “watch things and move to adjourn.” Several bills were passed by unan- imous consent. after the diplomatic bill had been disposed of, and after each Dalzell tried to make the adjournment motion. He was finally recognized by the Speaker and had the motion on his tongue’s end when Grosvenor, with a twinkle in his eye, bounded to his feet and frantically addressed the chair. “For what purpose does the gentle- man arise?” queried Speaker Cannon. “I wish to move that the House ad- journ,” demurely replied Grosvenor. His motion prevailed. The diplomatic bill, carrying $1,995,- 600, was passed without amendment. Everything but the bill was discussed during Its consideration. Morrell of Pennsylvania led with an argument for some system of building up the Ameri- can merchant marine. A Democratic political speech by Hamlin of Missouri followed, and received a. brief reply from Fuller of Illinois. Lind of Minne- sota spoke for Canadian reciprocity. AR 5 Government Owns One Automobile. WASHINGTON, Feb. 4.—Secretary Cortelyou, in replying to the inquiry of the House as to the number of car- riages, etc., maintaned at Government expense for the use of heads of his department, discloses the first auto- mobile thus far revealed as belonging to the Government in answers made to the Government vehicle query. There are eight carriage horses used in his department, the Secretary says, costing $4260, and harness costing $985. Four men are detailed to drive and care for the livery at an annual salary of $2850. AR Agricultural Bill Is Reported. ‘“WASHINGTON, Feb. 4.—The agri- cultural appropriation bill, reported to the House to-day, carries a total of $5,711,240, an increase of $233,000 over the currept law..

OPPOSES Bpecial Disj CALL BUREAU, HOTEL BARTON, WASHINGTON, Feb. 4.—A hearing took place before the Committee on Military Affairs to-day on the matter of the selection of a camp and maneu- ver ground in California. Senator Perkins made a strong argument against naming either of the ranches that have been referred to, but advo- cated instead that the matter be left to the War Department to make the choice. He advocated that the site be recommended generally to be located within an area embraced in Monterey, San Luis Obispo, Santa Cruz and Santa Barbara counties. He warned the committee against being influenced by the arguments of real estate deal- ers or persons interested individually in either ranch. He also referred to the fact that the appropriation for the purchase as contemplated amounted to | $300,000, while the Henry ranch will re- quire $500,000. Without regard to this, however, he said the responsibility for with the War Department. Insistence on naming any particular location would doubtless result in gpposition and dis- sension and cause delay in determin- ing the matter. Representative Daniels also spoke along the same lines. Judge Stevens of Iowa made the ar- gument in behalf of the Henry ranch. He is a brother-in-law of J. H. Henry, owner of the ranch. Ex-Secretary of the Navy Herbert appeared as attorney for the owners of Nacimiento. He dwelt particularly on the sanitary conditions of the prop- erty in contradiction of reports to the contrary. The hearing was postponed for one week. Senator Perkins submitted a report from the Committee on Fisheries to- day authorizing the establishment of a scientific fish station at San Pedro, as recommended by Professor Ritter of the California State University. This bill was introduced last session also, but failed at that time to secure a favorable report. —_————— New York Theaters Are Closed. NEW YORK, Feb. 4.—Mavor Mec- Clellan to-day ordered the closing of the Grand Opera-house, Madison- square Theater, Princess Theater, vaudeville theaters, Hurtig & Sea- mon’s and the theater part of Huber's Museum until certain alterations for safety are made by the houses named. eee———— Cockran May Have No Opposition. NEW YORK, Feb. 4.—No nomina- tion' was made by the Republican Congressional Convention of the Twelfth District (McClellan’s) to- night, and it is probable W. Bourke Cockran will have no opposition at the polls. RAISING FUNDS FOR THE CANAL Secretary Shaw Sends Letter of Instruetions to All the National Bank Depositories i $50,000,000 IS NEEDED Portion of the Money Will Be Withdrawn Within Ten Days to Settle for Right of Way WASHINGTON, Feb. 4.—Secretary Shaw to-day sent the following letter to all national bank depositorfes hold- ing special Government deposits re- garding prospective calls for funds on account of the Panama canal purchase: Sirs: It seems probable that the Govern- ment will be called upon In the near future to pay $50,000,000 preliminary to the con- struction of an interoceanic canal. In addi- tion to this there are outstanding approxi- mately $5,000,000 of the United States bonds which by ‘their terms mature on February 1, 1904, and Congress Is considering a proposi- tion to loan between $4.000,000 and $5,000,000 to the Louisiana Purchase Exposition. To meet these probable demands it will be neces- sary to withdraw at least $30,000,000 from depositories. You are, therefore, mediate preparations for the payment on de- mand of 20 per cent at New York. In the mear future, possibly within ten days, you will be asked to transfer this amount to some one of the New York depository banks, to be used in settlement for the canal right-of-way. I you desire to sell a portion of the securi- | ties now.held by the Government against your deposit you will so inform this office and ar- rangements willsbe made for the immediate transfer, so as to avoid actual withdrawals from channels of trade. The department will surrender mo United States bonds held as security for deposits with any bank until such bank has withdrawn all State and municipal bonds now held as such security, and securities of the District of Columbia, Philippine Islands and Hawall Will be retained, if desired. Please acknowl- edge receipt. Respectfully, L. M. SHAW, Secretary of the Treasury. e — NEGRO VOTE IN MARYLAND LIKELY TO BE ELIMINATED Bill 1s Introduced in State Senate Providing for Submission of the Matter to Popular Vote. ANNAPOLIS, Md., Feb. 4.—In the State Senate to-day Senator Wilson in- troduced a bill the acknowledged pur- pose of which is to eliminate the ne- gro vote in Maryland. The bill pro- vides for the submission to popular vote of a constitutional amendment which limits the right of suffrage to adult male citizens of the State who belong to one of three different classes and the registers of voters are direct- ed to refuse the registration of all others. These classes are: First—Those that can read a sec- tion of the consthitution of the State, which the registers shall submit to them, and give a reasonable explana- tion of it. Second—Those who were, prior to January 1, 1869, competent to register under the laws of this State or of any other State, and, Third—Lineal descendants of those qualified to register and wote under the preceding .section. The bill was referred to the Com- mittee on Constitutional Amend- ments. B NEW YORK.

Lorenz Tells of His Dealings With Machen and Explains Money Transactions g 7 STRANGE REQUEST MADE Attorney Conrad Asks Court to Instruet Witness Not to Talk to Any One During Recess PR~ o B WASHINGTON. Feb. 4—George E. Lorenz was on the witness stand in the postal trial to-day. He produced a number of drafts, checks and sight drafts which pasged between Machen and himself, and declared that they were afl in payment of his note for $25,000, which he gave Machen when the latter in 1393 assigned his interest in the oil properties. Settlements with Machen, he said, were made annually, the note finally being canceled as paid on December 16, 1903. All the money transactions, he said, between Machen and himself referred to by the Govern- ment related solely to this indebtedness to Machen. When the money com- menced to come from D. B. Groff in 1895 Lorenz said that he determined to turn over to Machen one-half of his profits in the fastener. This he did, he testiffed, until he became pressed for money, and then he sent Machen only what he could spare, and when he be- came easier financially Machen got his remittances as on previous occasions. Just before the recess Attorney Con- rad provoked a heated argument by requesting the court> to instruct Lo- renz not to talk to any one, not even his counsel, during the luncheon hour. The court denied the request. Attor- ney Douglass of counsel for the de- fense vigorously resented what he said was a reflection on him and his asso- ciates, and called attention to the fact that in all the history of the District Courts this was the first time any such request had been made. —_—— .

Special sales at $8.50 and $8.75 are of common occurrence in clothing stores during January and February and no doubt many firms are giving good value for the price. But when they reduce a garment 25 per cent they® have not even brought their goods down to what we sell ours for regularly. You see, they do not make their own stock, but buy from others. We manu- facture our own goods and retail clothing direct for at least one-third less than other stores. Figure, then, for yourself what value you are getting here when we reduce our $12.50 suits and overcoats to $8.65. This reduction has been made.
