Preliminary to tha regular work-of tha

chair fell against the wall 'and wera never
beard again. A motion to require voters to
announce their name and addreee waa car

First National Bank Building, Omaha,
of a latter ha had written In May, 1893, to
W. J. Bryan, who waa then a representa
tive la congress... 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. -

The Navy department haa discovered that'
tha atrlklng mlnera of Pennsylvania do
not desire to enter that aervlce and has

of tha Navy department haa opened re

It was developed by tbe surgeons whs

MANUFACTURING PLANTS WELL OCCUPIED
Iron and Steel Indnalry Prosperous
avad Consumptive Demand In
creases Faster Tha a Pro
dad a a; Capacity.
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.

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

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.
Business failures for the week ending
July 31 number 188, as against 178 last
week, 180 In this week last year. 171 In
1900, 158 in 1899 and 189 In 1898. ,
