WASHINGTON LETTER,
The hold the New York stock specu
lators have upon this administration is
demonstrated anew almost dally. Not
long since the treasury department
made an offer to buy 928,000,000 of
government bonds, at present prices, a
large premium, in order to lower the
rate* of money on call In Wall street.
The war news in Europe, at tone
authorities assert, or the pattage of the
gold itandard bill in the houie,Mothert
mantaln, canted another panic in Wall
street and aa might be expected, Secre
tary Gage dropped all other business to
study a scheme to further help his
friends'on the wrong side
of the market.
An order was lssned permitting the
national banks to receive and hold
temperarlly all the government re*
celpts for internal revenue, which
amount to (1,000,000 a day, under the
present war schedules.
The concern of -this administration
that the bears should not succeed in
their farthur campaign for depressing
stocks, is easily to be understood. Nine
tenths of the so-ealled "prosperity" en
joyed In the large business centers since
this administration came In, has been
the nominal increase in the value ef
stocks of industrial enterprises. They
have been quoted In the stock-lists from
third to a half higher than these
prices during the depreailoB ef 1896,
But, following the deeltioa of the ea
preme court In the AdiyttomPlpa Trust
case, which found that combination
Illegal, being In restraint of trade, the
banks have ealled bask their leant
many of the largely watered sleeks ef
the lo-eallet "Industrials" requiring the
borrowers either to pay eff their least
at once, or to anbetltate rallreiad or
other ebaree for collateral. The vis
torlee of the Boon at the tune time
caused rapid telllng of American rail
road tharea abroad, and the comeqasnt
export of gold to pay for them. Sueh
a combination has shrank the aggre
gate values of the stocks listed In New

Word was received from Fred Barker
that he was rapidly gaining strength
and would be borne soon.
Wm. Beitz marketed a pure bronze
turkey gobbler here recently that tip
ped the scales at 36 lbs. Pretty good
weight. At 7cents, It would bring
$2.70.
Little Boy Sweezy suffered a relapse
and is now in a critical condition,
trained nurse has been employed how
ever and hopes are entertained for his
recovery.
Rev. Edward C. Reeve arrived Wed
nesday morning from North Loui
Nebraska, where he is pastor of tl
Presbyterian church, he will spend
the holidays with his parents.
On Saturday occurred the funeral of
Mrs Margaret Benson, of Dubuque,
She was a siBter of Alex Johnson, John
Johnson, II. M. Johnson, Mrs. Peter
Milroy and Mrs. John Hawthorne, all
of whom reside here. The servloss
were held at the R. P. Church at this
place. Mrs. Benson's husband died

York fully $100,000,000 during the paat
three weekt. With money on Wall
street loaning on call at from 60 to 125
per cent, In saaee as high as one-half
per cent a day for large amounts, little
less than demoralization Is insight.
Bankers under such conditions refuse
loans to legitimate merchants, preferring
the high rate for short loans and with
a little more of these untoward condi
tions, all.the^evlls of 1896 would return,
and all be chargeable to the adminis
tration In power. With an election
just ahead, it is not surprising that
Secretary Gage Is giving all his atten
tion to throwing the aid of the govern
ment to the stock brokers. It is not
the business of the government to take
a hand In stock deals, but the republi
can party prides itself on indifference
to the constitution when it stands be
tween friends.
The present Wall street situation is
likely to play a strong part in the out
come of the next national campaign.
The passage of the currency or gold bill,
certainly did nothing to restore eonfi
dence. Five minutes after it went
through the house, there was the big
gest panic In Wall street that has been
there in fifteen years.
Scarcely less important in Its effects
upon the coming national election here,
will be the outcome of the war In the
Transvaal. It is coming to be believed
by military experts in Washington that
the Boers probably will win. Ther^is
no vuestion that the majority of the
American people wish for this end.
There is still less doubt that the Mc
Kinley administration Is bound, by di
plomatic agreement quite as binding as a
treaty, to give whatever moral influence
and aid it oan to the British. That is
one of the embarrassments of the en
tangling alliances already half cement
ed with the Britons, by which English
speaking people are to stand shoulder
to shoulder in the "onward maroh of
Christianity and Civilization." This
country Is to shoot civilization into the
Filippinoe, the English approving and
the Britons are, with this governments
approval, and at least moral aid, to
force civilization upon the Boers with
Lyddite shells that is, of course, pro
viding the "savages" offer no successful
opposition.
But the Boers just now seem to have,
even more friends in the United States
than the Filippinoe have. This Is but
natural, because their conduct upon
the field is much more deserving of
sympathy and admiration. The Hi
berian societies in all the states have
organized a movement to assist the
struggling patriots in the Transvaal
and they will bold account at the proper
time the administration that even re
motely connives at the aggressions of
the Britons.
The current of events in the past
week have done more to alarm the
shrewd republicans for the outcome of
the Presidential election than any
thing that has occurred Bince the
breaking out of the Spanish war. If
stocks go to pieces, as they promise
now to do, the business demoralization
and financial disturbances in the large
centers just prior to the oampaign, will
destroy utterly the claims made by
this administration that prices are up
as a result of its work and if the Boers
are even partially successful In the end,
as now seems assured, it will stand in
the impotent and contemptible position
of having wanted their enslavement
by a powerful government, and be
deprived of the good luck of even
standing with the victor.
There is no criticism of the formal
announcement of neutrality by this
government. That was compulsory.
But, precisely as Great Britain headed
the delegation of foreign powers which
prayed the United States to avoid war
with Spain, this government could havo
interceded, when McKinley was peti
tioned by thousands of leading citizens
to do so, and asked Great Britain to
stay its hands in the Transvaal.
The democrats intend pushing trust
legislation at this session of congress,
Senator Morgan of Ala., has introduc
ed an anti-trust joint resolution which
be says he intends forcing to a vote if
it possibly can be done, and Senator
Chilton, of Texas, says the same about
the anti-trust bill he has introduced.
The appointment of Gen. Leonard
Wood, wboBe nomination to be major
general of volunteers was confirmed by
the senate this week, to be military
governor of Cuba, is regarded as the
best thing that has happened for the
Cubans for some time, as he has shown
by bis management of the province of
Santi ago that be thoroughly understands
to get along with them.
