' Within less than six months the prices of all the great staple com modities of this country have ad vanced from 5 to 25 per cent, and In some cases even more. Within I the same period the wages of not l less than 300,000 employes have been Increased from 10 per. cent .upward. .This rise in the value of commodi ties and of labor has been well-nigh universal. It has given employment to the unemployed, and has in creased the remuneration of the em ployed by a substantial amount. In considering the condition of the country and the signs of the times, there is no fact so well established and so significant. If we are to argue anything at all from the de cline of prices since 1873, we must argue the exact contrary from the rise in prices in 1895. Now a great many people have come to believe that a part of the [all in prices of commodities was Sue to the appreciation of money. they say that the real change was produced by currency legislation, vhich has caused money to appreci- ate in value. If this is true, the re- lent general rise of the prices of >ther things ought to have been ac companied by a still more pro nounced rise in the value of money. If it was money scarcity and money Searness that made and kept prices to low before, then they could have advanced only because money be- came more plentiful and cheaper. The fact is that the supply of money has not changed practically at all. Yet money today is abundant and cheap to an extent seldom, if ever, i before known. The Pennsylvania ! Railroad company has just conclud- \ ed" a loan for , 000,000. These bonds I lire to bear 3"._ per cent interest, and to run for fifty years. The road j does not borrow this money on ac- I count of any necessity, but simply ! because the money market is so fa- ! vorable to borrowers that it ca-n re- I place outstanding securities with I new ones issued at a lower rate of ! interest. An official of the company j states that the reason for making the ' loan is the abnormal ease of the I money market. . All the commercial reports say the ' same. The three bond issues of the United States government have ab sorbed $165,000,000 of idle capital. Yet the last New' York bank statement shows the average cash to be $176,000,000, and the excess reserve over the legal re- quirement $36,000,000. The same condition prevails in all the money , centers of the world. The British"" treasury recently offered a million pounds •in treasury bills, and sixty million pounds were offered, the low- est rate being less than 1 per cent. All the financial journals treat, at more or less length, upon this condi tion of the market. They agree that the great reverses met by capital In Australia and South America, and the fright that it received by pro- posed silver coinage in the United States, have caused it to be kept in the safes of its owners until it has accumulated to an almost unprece- dented extent. Money is everywhere _ seeking for safe investment at the lowest remuneration. We have thus actually in existence today, without one dollar of recent additions to currency by any of the principal countries of the world, the conditions which the fiat money peo ple tell us can be reached only by currency inflation. We have super- abundant capital seeking occupa tion, interest rates the lowest ever known, and the prices of labor and of commodities in general steadily on the rise. Can anybody suggest any situation more favorable to our great industrial interests? Can anybody say why we should take any action at all to alter conditions or inter- fere with the operation of forces that are obviously beneficial? With labor growing dearer •; ' and capital growing cheaper every day, it seems to us that the laborer has at "pres- ■ ent no particular cause to complain. «s*-» " " POOR POLICY. We are of the opinion. that the city will be a loser!, if the policy an- nounced by the committee on ways and means in case of suits for dam- ages is adhered to. A number of members of the council have de- clared that all -such suits should be fought to a finish. In the past it has been customary for the corpora- tion attorney to examine into the cir cumstances, and, where injuries have actually been received, to come to an understanding with the attor neys of the aggrieved party, if possible, and make a set- tlement by the payment of a reasonable amount. There can be no doubt that this course of pro- cedure has saved large sums of money to the city in the long run. Suits of this character are arising constantly. People are being in- jured, or allege that they are, every week by reason of defective side- walks, uncovered street excavations, or some other circumstance for which they can hold the city responsible. They thereupon bring suit for the largest amount which they think they could possibly recover under the most favorable circumstances. When it comes to a trial, they are generally willing to compromise for a fraction of the sum claimed^ Now if all such cases are to be fought out in the courts, the claims for the full amounts asked _ will be presented to and passed upon by a jury. We know what usually happens in such cases. Some jury- men are in favor of giving only a small amount, and others of going to the limit, and their verdict is usual- ly a mathematical average of their several opinions. With the sympa- thy which a person who is entitled to any damages at all can usually count upon, the draft upon the pub- lie treasury is sure to be a large one. On the other hand, when the attor neys settle these matters by them- selves, each has an incentive to ar- rive at justice in avoiding the labor and uncertain issue of a trial. Be- fore they ultimately agree to dis- agree, one is pretty sure to offer the maximum that he believes to be due, and the other to agree to be satisfied with the minimum that he thinks justice requires. A compro mise is then frequently effected, and the complainant is spared large at- torney fees, and the city is saved from expensive litigation. We can- not see that it is in the public in- terest to have all these cases brought into court; and the indications are that such a policy will result in sad- dling upon the city a much larger bill for damages annually than it has heretofore had to pay. — A POSITIVE STATEMENT. A POSITIVE STATEMENT. The public is obviously not yet in possession of the inside facts which alone would explain either the past or the present status of the plan to reorganize the Northern Pacific. That the property will be reorgan ized is no news, but a plain neces sity. That this reorganization must be brought about by the consent and with the co-operation of the secur ity-holders is another plain proposi tion. But exactly what has been or is to be the relation to this change of Mr. Hill or of the Great Northern is matter ft_r speculation to all except those on the inside. And they know excellently how to keep their own counsel. In the ab sence of other information on the subject, the following positive state- ment made by Bradstreet's, in the first article of its editorial page, is not without significance: The announcement on Wednesday that the reorganization of the North- crn Pacific Railroad company on the lines laid down by the Adams commit- tee could not be carried out because of certain provisions of the laws of the state of Minnesota was received with some surprise, but it was explained that the proposed guarantee of the Northern Pacific bonds by the Great Northern company would conflict with tlie laws of the state named, and that counsel of the reorganization committee and of others in interest are agreed that such is the case. The stories pub- lished concerning the opposition of Mr. Morgan to the plan proposed by the Adams committee excited interest mainly because of their Ingenuity, that gentleman denying he was opposed to the arrangement previously contem- plated by the reorganization commit- ' tee. Just why so many newspapers have assumed to announce the antag onism of Mr. Morgan and of the Great [ Northern to the Adams plan is difficult | to explain, except on the ground that I such statements are put forward by op- ! ponents of the reorganization commit- \ tee. It will interest newspapers, as j well as others in search of 'facts, to | know that the statement .made. public as to the reason why Northern, Pacific could not be reorganized: as contem- plated is correct. It -will be still more interesting to learn that counsel of all parties in interest arel engaged^ in de- vising another method of carrying out a substantially similar plan, of reor ganization, and that the reorganization committee and | the bankers - interested are working in complete harmony to that end. It is the almost unbroken custom of Bradstreet's to deal with the events of the week from a strictly news standpoint. It gives facts, with comment thereon.and abstains from prophecy and expression of mere opinion. The above positive statement, referring to one of the most important events \of the day, would seem, therefore, to • be so far out of its usual editorial habit as to indicate authority behind it. It is an important contribution to a discus- sion in which the parties principally interested have held themselves non- commital, and have given out no definite information whatever to the public. CAN BE SUPPRESSED. The report of the committee of the assembly appointed to investigate the gambling houses of St. Paul is of the usual and perhaps necessarily inconclusive quality. The members run up against the customary diffi culty. Whenever they start upon the war path in earnest, the gambling places are suddenly closed. When- ever their activity relaxes, business is resumed at the old stands. The THE SAINT PAUL. DAILY GLOBE: WEDNESDAY \ MORNING, JULY 10 £****" same policy has been pursued time out of mind to avoid indictment by the grand jury. The committee : states, however, that it has ascer tained that gambling is carried on in several places, which it mentions specifically. It says that these es tablishments are well patronized by people assumed to be reputable. And its conclusion is that no inquiry or series of investigations can be ef fective in putting •an end to the evil. Nothing will do that but sys tematic police raids at unexpected times, with the confiscation of- gam- '■ bling outfits wherever found. This makes the business a losing one, and the proprietors hasten to get out if it. - The upshot of this report is simply what everybody has long known to ._ be true; that gambling cannot exist ' in any city where the authorities are determined to put an end to it. It is not a difficult matter ever to ascertain the facts. If a gambling place is open to public patronage at all, it cannot be kept a secret. Where a committee of the grand jury, or one of the houses of the council, or a newspaper reporter finds no diffi culty in gaining admittance and ob taining particular information, it is certain that an organized detective force cannot be baffled or led astray. If, then, gambling exists in any city for any length of time, it must be with the tacit consent or by reason of the indifference of the authorities. They can stamp it out at their pleas- ure. That- an immense majority of all law-abiding citizens desire and demand that this shall be done has never been open to any question. — — _ PRAISEWORTHY CANDOR, PRAISEWORTHY CAXDOR. Political candor is not so common a virtue among Republican newspa pers that it should pass without ac- knowledgment. Therefore we note with satisfaction and approval the following true and manly expres sion of editorial opinion by the Mm neapolis Tribune: It was Cleveland's initiative in call- ing an extra session of congress in 18.3 that made the repeal of the Sherman act possible; and it was his influence' which held Secretary Carlisle in line and gave, the sound money Democrats their recent victory in Kentucky. If we had some Republican leaders of na tional prominence who were as out spoken and undaunted as President Cleveland, there would be more cer tainty of the silver heresy being squelched in both parties, It is possi ble that Reed, McKinley or Harrison will now take courage from the presi- dent's success in defeating the free coinage agitators in his own party, and come to the conclusion that frankness I and firmness is better than silence or equivocation. The public would like to | know exactly where these gentlemen i are "at" on the silver question. Secretary Carlisle did not need any ! "holding in line;" for an experience with the responsibilities of national finance had made him as earnest and as bold in his convictions as Mr. Cleveland himself. Neither will anybody hear the "blast upon the bugle-horn" of any of the Repub lican candidates named, for which the Tribune calls. Their horns are of the variety that toot with the rabble, not the kind that sound an advance. Nevertheless the Tribune is to be credited with speaking some wholesome truths without mincing its words. ■ ■■___ It is about time for some one to dis- It is about time for some one to dis cover the applicability of that old story about the old deacon who yoked himself up with his bull calf, ] to some of these "sooner" statesmen ] who have too confidingly put their | necks into the silver yoke and are | wishing some one would "head us off." Opinions are divided as to wheth er the novels of Mrs. Pearl Craigie, known to the publishing trade as "John Oliver Hobbes," and the story which she tells in the divorce court are related to each other as cause and effect or as effect and cause. The Sioux Indians have filed a claim to the Pipestone quarries.

CURB~AND_CORRiDOR. There was quite a gathering of not ables from North Dakota yesterday at the Merchants'. They came for no pre- concerted scheme or by any prear- ranged plan, but just happened into town, as they often do at this time of the year. Col. Plummer, who now re sides here, was rather pleased to see his old time friends about him. Not the least conspicuous figure in the num ber was Jud La Moure, who has per- haps cut as wide, a swath politically as any other man in Central North j Dakota. Another well remembered man in the crowd was Alex. McKenzie, who "swung" the western portion of his state into line in many a campaign. And by the way, he did not stop at so small a matter as state lines, but on a recent and important occasion crossed the border into Montana and took a hand in the unpleasantness arising out of the capital fight in that state. Two of the trio here mentioned were very strong political generals in that event and McKenzie did no little to fight the battle for the Northern Pacific and for himself as well, and had the satis- faction of seeing the Anaconda com- pany defeated. * * » But the former antagonists have buried the hatchet and were content to sit at the same dinner table where these old-time reminiscences were dis cussed in good spirit. The talk drifted to crops and prospects and the general sentiment expressed by all is summed up in these words: "The harvest of this year promises to exceed the prodi gal one of 1891. There is a remarkable stand of grain, but there is cause for anxiety in the scarcity of men and threshing machines to properly take care of the abundance. We do not want a repetition of 1891, when hun- dreds of acres of splendid wheat, oats and other grains went to waste on ac count of wet weather, farmers hoping and expecting that it would be all right anyway. But hundreds were dis- appointed and suffered great loss. Ef- forts must be made early to get harvest hands into the state or else we will lose a good share of the crop." * * a . Major Burke, of Helena, was also one of the party of Northwesterners who joined the others at dinner. The major has resided in the West for many years, and has had his ups and downs with the rest of the people, but he still clings to Montana in the firm belief that all will be well in the long run. They report increased activity in var ious directions and the resumption of building operations in Helena and many other cities of that state. GOWS KII1I1EI). ELEVEN SLAUGHTERED IN REN.

The present week is positively the last of the stock season. The positive announcement by the management to this effect has had the effect to materially in- crease the business at the Grand. It is pleasing to note that the company has been furnished with an admir- able vehicle for displaying its ex- ceptional ability. "Mr. Barnes of New York" is intensely dramatic, and its situations, while always ex- citing, at no time appear overdrawn or exaggerated. It is a play of the romantic school, full of human inter- est, pleasantly relieved by an abun- dance of comedy. Miss Crosman is making the hit of the stock season as Mahrina Paoli, the fiery Corsican girl, and petite Annie Blancke is simply irresistible as the enfant ter rible, Maud Chartris. Mr. Neill, in the title role, has had no part better adapted to him since his fine por trayal of Capt. Swift. The whole cast in fact is admirable.

Q., July 9.— A terrible accident occurred at 3 o'clock this morning at Craig's road station, on the Grand Trunk railroad, about fourteen miles west of Levis. A very large pilgrimage from Sher brooke and Windsor Mills had left those towns last evening for the shrine of St. Ann de Beaupre. There were two sections of the train, one running a few minutes behind the other. The, first section was stand ing at the Craig's Road station tak ing water, when the second section, passing the semaphore, dashed into the rear Pullman coach of the first section, smashing it to kindling wood and killing most of the occupants. The Pullman conductor escaped by jumping. Engineer McLeod and Fire man Perkins, of the second section, were killed outright. The Pullman coach was telescoped into the first class cars of the first section, killing a number of passengers riding iri them. Among the killed are three priests. The total number of killed is now placed at fourteen and the number injured at thirty-four. DEAD AND INJURED. CHARLES BEDART, mail clerk, Richmond. MISS BEDART, Richmond.

Probably one or two of the injured will die. HORRORS OF THE SCENE. The work of rescue was begun as soon as possible. When the blinding clouds of steam had subsided, the train men and priests rallied the men together and the dead and injured were taken from the ruins of the en gine. Pullman and first-class coaches, and cared for wherever temporary quarters could be -found. The women of the party ministered as best they could to the wants of the maimed pilgrims. They tore off their under clothing and made bandages for th. gaping wounds, and tried in the ab sence of surgeons to staunch the flow of blood and properly cleanse the hurts. Word . was sent to Montreal and orders from there were issued to Levis to send out a force of doctors from Quebec to attend the wounded and a force of men to clear up the track. The special train reached the scene at an early hour in the morning,' and all of the wounded that could be moved were placed on board a car and sent east to Levis, where they were card 'or in the hospital. The second victim tal- en irom the wreck. Rev. Father Gignan, cure of St. George's of Windsor, died just as he was re moved from the* cars. The other wounded were immediately driven to the Hotel Dleu, at Levis. The Pullman car was totally wrecked, and it is a miracle that every soul on it was not killed. The scene in the hospital after the arrival of the wounded was a sad one. The unfortunate pilgrims all occupied beds in the different wards and were attended by physicians of Levis and Quebec, and numerous volunteers of Levis. The cries of some of the wound ed were , fearful. ;._. •-.': •■'" AN AGONIZING SPECTACLE. The arrival of the trains bearing the wounded passengers beggars descrip tion. Hundreds had congregated at the station at Levis, and numerous ex press wagons, with mattresses and pillows were awaiting the arrival of the train. The wounded had all been made as comfortable as possible who had been sent out from Levis at an early j hour. The sight -of the unfortunate victims was one never to be forgotten. They were covered with blood and . their clothes were torn to shreds. Bruises and cut*, on the head were everywhere visible. It is hard to say where the blame for the accident rests. It has been sug gested : that - Engineer McLeod might have dozed off to sleep, and thus missed seeing the semaphore and was uncon scious of his whereabouts. A strict in vestigation will be held at once to de termine where the responsibility rests. ' NARROW ESCAPES. The Pullman conductor, Morhood, had a narrow escape. He had stepped out on the rear platform just in time to see the on-coming train and jumped. thus escaping injury. The engine of ] the colliding train seemed to rush up, then turned completely over, pinning Engineer McLeod underneath.' The rest of the second train was derailed * and badly smashed. In an instant < after the crash the air was filled with i the shrieks and groans of the injured and imprisoned passengers. N.

Quinlan, the Grand Trunk • passenger agent who was on the first train, is not seriously wounded. In a conver sation with an Associated Press cor- respondent he said he could not say how he escaped death, as the Pullman car he was in was completely shivered into splinters. The porter of the Pull- man at the time of the collision, Ben- nett Bassler, said he could not account for the accident. At the time it hap- pened he was putting up a berth in the Pullman. P. McHugh, one of the in- jured, said he was sitting in the car in front of the Pullman when the ac- cident occurred. He saw the locomo tive of the second train coming through his car and was saved by a friend named Simon White. 1^ fl -WIOTG WALK. II -WIOTG WflliK.
