FIRST WARD REPUBLICANS Clab Elects O Bat-are aad Listens to a Kaaabcr of Short Addresses. Members of tha First Ward Republican club held a very Interesting and success ful meeting In Lincoln hall, Sixth and Pierce atreets, Friday night, where they wera addressed by Judge J. H. Blair, U D. Holmes. E. J. Cornish, Dr. M. J. Ford and L 8. Haacall. The flrat order of bual aeas after tha club waa called to order waa the election of officers for the ensuing year. F. W.

The substance of the letter waa that all trust manufactured goods should be placed upon tha free 11 -t in order that tha competition might kill the truatj.- molt . - .- "Bryan waa pleaaed with tbe idea." aald tha speaker, ."end a week or ao later I received a reply from him, saying that the committee of ways and means, of which he waa a member, bad taken kindly to tha auggestlon, and that a movement waa 'on foot to chrystallise it Into a bill. Later I received a copy of the bill, but It never became a law. It waa pigeonholed by the committee for political reasons. Sine then every democratla platform haa contained that Idea aa a 'means of combatting trusts, but ho attempt haa been made by demo cratic members of congress to make good tha promises held forth In the platforms. They almply go on advocating thla remedy which waa advanced originally by a re publican. They' never Invent anything. They are alwaya on the negative aide, and are either springing something that the republicans have discarded or else some thing that they know won't carry." L. D. Holmes told of aoma of the great problems that tha republican party haf settle-; In tha past, and aald that It always aettled them right. "It Is tha party of prosperity," aald he, "and haa dpna more for tha laboring man than any ether po litical organisation." E. J. Cornish made an enthuslastlo talk,' In which ha picked out aaveral flaws in a recent addreaa of W. J. Bryan. "Ha aaya there are only two partlea, tha party of aristocracy and the party of democracy," aaid tha speaker,, "yet If he were to ba elected to the prealdeucy where would he expect to get hla majorities from surely not from tha northern states. No, ha would expect them from tho south, where two thirds (t the voters are disfranchised, and where It ia possible for a man to be elected to congress without getting a single vote from a laboring man. Thla la hla party of democracy I - 'We don't hear as much from democrats aa we did about tha government's Philip pine policy and other issues growing out of the late war. The reaaon la that auch issues have ceaaed to make good demo- caatlo thunder. They see that tha repub- licana have given to the Filipinos even more right than tha democrats have given to tbe negroea of the aouth." Dr. M. J. Ford made a strong union labor talk. In which he advised every laborer to Join a union labor organisation and live up to Ita principles "The man who goes to work In the face of a atrlke Is a traitor In the eyea of God and man," aald he. - MINERS NO GOOD FOR NAVY Reeraltinar Offlrera Disappointed In Pennsylvania aad Will Cone "West Aara I a. The Navy department haa discovered that' tha atrlklng mlnera of Pennsylvania do not desire to enter that aervlce and has ordered tbe recruiting station at Bethle hem.

Lieutenant Ryan of tha Navy department haa opened re cruiting atatlona la many of tha towns In the mining country of Pennsylvania with tbe idea of recruiting members of tha striking miners. Ia each cass tha recruit ing atatlon waa a failure. The miners pre ferred to remain at home and all did ao, la the belief that they would aoon be returned te work. It was developed by tbe surgeons whs examined those few of tbe atrlklng miners who did apply for enlistment that the mlnera wera not the physically perfect men they were supposed to ba. Most of those who applied were underslsed. weak-cheated, round-shouldered and physically unable lo pasa tha examination.

NEW TORK, Aug. 1 R. G. Dun ft Co.'e Weekly Review of Trade tomorrow will aay: . Aside from heavy ralna In Texas the week crop news is encouraging. Manu facturing plants are well occupied as a rule, iron and steel leading, followed by textiles and footwear. Fuel scarcity la still causing delay, although coke ovens are surpaaelng all previous figures of out put and bituminous mines are vigorously operated. At most polnta retail trade Is active and preparations continue for heavy fall sales, while heavy spring goods are opened with good prospects. Keporta available for July show a gain of 2.8 per cent over 1901 and 30.8 per cent over 1900. With bustnes In alg'at for at least a year the leading depurwnente of the iron and steel Industry may properly be con sidered prosperous. Notwithstanding the rapid increase in producing capacity con sumptive demand has grown still faster and the recent official report of a new high record of pig iron production at 8,808, 674 tons for the iirst half of 1902 is accom panied by the statement that unsold stocks at the end of that period were only 29,861 tons, compared with 872.640 tons a year pre viously. The first month of the second half ef 1W2 has brought no diminution in Inquiries,- but some decrease in output owing to scarcity of fuel. Imports are very large In order to keep the ateel mills provided with material and offerings of foreign billets have checked the upward tendency of prices. In engines and heavy hardware there ia a heavy ahortage, orders for delivery In 1902 being out of the question. Steel rails and struc tural contracts have been booked far ahead. In textile manufacturing the feature was the opening of men'a wear worsted fabrics for next spring, with a general advance of 1 to 10 per cent. Cotton goods tend in favor of the purchasers, owing to the pros pects of a large cotton crop and the light export movement. Hhoe shops are active em spring samples and buyers are numeroua In the Boston market. A striking advance In leather this weuk has followed the upward movement of hides, stimulated by heavy purchaaes, a single sale of 100.000 sides of hemlock sole being reported. Hides have made further sensational advances, Colorado steers reaching new high record prices. Grain prices declined sharply as the month of speculative manipulation drew to a close and legitimate trading resumed a more normal holding. Cotton held fairly steady, more because of the large short interest than the floods In Texas. Thus far it la probable that ralna have done more good than harm Demands for consumption continue liberal. Meats have alao shown a tendency to seek slightly lower quotations, but light receipts and higher quality do not promise any extensive relief in tha Immediate future. . BRADSTREET'S REVIEW OK TRADE. Affairs ta Boalneaa World Are tin lee. cent Peadlan; Developments. NEW YORK, Aug. 1. Bradstreet's to morrow will say: Trade Is quiet, while attention Is con centrated on crop and Industrial develop ments. Generally lower prices for farm products point to the former being largely favorable. Though weather conditions of late have been more favorable, effects of earlier backward weather have not bten ef faced or repaired. Aa for the fall and win ter outlook, however, the beat la predicted. In Industrial affairs the out Inn k ! talnly satisfactory. The Iron and steel altuatton la atlll largely a strong one, but isolated examples of weakness are In sight. The railway situation is one of th bt-st in years, and the outlook as to ton nage ia a flattering one, marred only by the prospect of car shortages later on re dating or curtailing industrial operations Figprune Cereal A grain and fruit Coffee nourishing and invigorating.

Fiscal year -earnings returns are- excep tionally good, and it la probable that taken as a whole the railway earnlnga for the half year will exceed 1901, despite reduced anthracite coal carriers earnings. Cotton has weakened quite ateMlly on good arrowing crop conditions, tha.gh rain and flood damage reporta from Texas helped to steady prices on soma daya. Dry goods trade reports are quiet. Some improvement la -noted at eastern markets, but the fall jobbing trade provea to be later than usual In arriving. Soma weak ness In sheetings and other cottons Is noted In wholesale circles. Spring style In woolens opened this week are, pre dicted, shown as advances on last aeason. Wool, though quiet, is steady and higher grades are held several cents per pound higher than last year. New business In shoes at Boston la confined largely to sample lota. Shipments, after a temporary spurt, are again shrinking. Leather la In better demand. Eastern shoe manufacturers being reported taking freely in the west, but tanners complain of high cost of hides, while shoe manufac turers note high cost of leather and low cost of their finished product. New business in pig iron for 1903 Is still of good volume, but not ao active - aa earlier. Current deliveries are still delayed or insufficient, though helped out by freer Importations of foreign iron. The produc tion of the fiscal year ending June 80 was in excess of 17,000,000 tons, the output In the first half of 1902 exceeding all records. If the reduction In stocks and the increased Imports are considered a consumption of 600,000 tons in excess- of this Is shown to have occurred and the estimated out-turn of 18,000,000 tons for the calendar year Is seen to be practically needed. Fully one-half of the steel rail output for 1908 Is already booked, and structural mills are also heavily sold ahead. Tin plate mills are, however, not busy, sheets are quiet and wire la dull. Hardware la active, especially for building. The 1901 record of building will be surpaased this year. Lumber la stronger and Tilgher at tha west and la recovering from aummer dull ness at the east. Receipts and shipments are far ahead of laat year at all points. Wheat, including flour, exports for the week ending July 81, aggregate 4,888,834 bushels, against 8,930,969 last week and 6,408,391 in this week laat year. Wheat ex ports since July 1 aggregate 18,138,840 bushels, against 28,511,038 fast aeason. Corn exporta ' aggregate 28,406 bushels, against 79.611 last week and 668.804 last year. For the fiscal year corn exports are 487,810, against 7,727,847 lsst season.
