Subscribers leaving the city for a prlod during the- summer can have the Dally and Sunday Journal mailed to any address in the United States er Canada without extra charge. The address will be chanjM as often as desired. Roth telephones Mr. Bryan's last outcry Is Intended to nctify the many thousand Democrats who would Ignoro him that they cannot loso him. As a matter of fact. Senator Depew's real purpose in his third-term suggestion was to give the opposition press a topic in a barren season. The census contains many surprises, one of which Is that Maine and Vermont, regarded-as finished States, show a greater Increase' In population than Kansas and Nebraska, the gains being 5, 3.1, 3 and .03 per cent, respectively. For the contemporary which can find but two great and redeeming characters in this vale of tears William Jennings Bryan and Mayor Thomas Taggart the Journal would have the deepest sympathy did it not know that Its chief delight Is believing that the world was made for woo and wickedness. The paper of which Mr. Bryan was oi,ce editor cries out that gold Is being shipped to Europe, a If the announcement would create consternation. With a trade balfl net of $7o0.0fl0,0i) in our favor and the largest output of gold In the world, the announcement of the export of gold is good lather than bad news. The protection organ, the Economist, If It has any discreet friends, will stop Its calling Representative Cabcock a traitor because he has expressed the opinion that It would be well to reduce certain duties. The deliberations of the National Association of Manufacturers and Its resolution should be a warning to that element not to be arbitrary In affairs which concern the Republican party rather than the Economist. The statement made the past week in several papers that while Agulnaldo was professing to aid the Americans in the capture of Manila he was In communication with General Augustin, expressing a desire to save Spanish authority In the Philippines from shipwreck. Is not in the nature Of new?, as those who publish It assume. The letters of Agulnaldo were given in the speech of Senator Spooner more than a year ago. The Atlanta Journal commends the recent article of ex-President Cleveland. In which he denounces extravagance and paternalism in public affairs. This Is all very well, but as now recalled the solid Democracy was for the one measure of Indefensible extravagance of the last session the river and harbor appropriation bill of nearly $50,000,000. It was with the understanding that it should pass that the Democratic senators of the South permitted the riatt amendment to be put into the army appropriation bill. Senator Depew's suggestion of a third term for President McKinley meets with no serious response In any part of the country. Even the President's Cabinet regard the proposition of Senator Depew as preposterous. General Grant would have been nominated In IS-m) if he had not been twjec elected President. If a third term was not believed to be expedient for General Grant with an interval of four years between the second and the proposed third term, it Is fair to assume that three terms In succession will not bo given to the most popular man of to-day or any other perloJ. The unwritten law sometimes has the force of constitutional provision. The president of the National Association of Manufacturers made a vigorous plea for the ship-subsidy bill and at the same time declared for such treaties of reclprocity p.s would give other nations some share in our markets. lie seems not to have seen this Inconsistency, but others did, becauso the paying of money to obtain a portion of the carrying trade is the most repugnant of all the forms of protection. If reciprocity is what we are after, why not let thdse who can afford to do our ocean carrying at less price than our people can do it have an opportunity to pay for some of our merchandise which they need by carrying our freight across the ocean? An Inqulrtr has brought out the fact n the Inland Educator and Indiana School Journal that the city of Terr Haute gave the site of the Normal School buildings, now worth 75.0ön, and assumed obligation tu pay half the annual cost of repairs on the buildings. When, in 1&;J. the Normal School building was burned the c'ty of Terru Hitue at once advanced &0.u0j with whl"h tc btgln tae work of rebuilding, in addi

tion to the repairs that city pays half the Insurance on the buildings and contents, which are insured for J1D3.000. When It Is necessary to establish a Fecond normal school the Legislature should give It to the city In the eastern part of the State which will assume like obligations with Tcrre Haute. i TAH I I'F MODI FI C ATI f.. The discussions which have taken place in the National Association of Manufacturers are significant In that the most of the speakers advocated the adoption of the reciprocity treaties now (before the Senate and a modification of many features of the present tariff. A number of speakers said they did not need protection for their Industries. The only leading industry making this statement was that of boots and shoes. The others were special Industries covered by patents. Nevertheless, the general tenor of the discussion was for a modification of the tariff on merchandise which does not need protection. A number of conservative speakers feared that great injury would follow a radical change in the present tariff. Indeed, the tenor of all the addresses was in favor of protection as opposed to free trade. Still, the sentiment was In favor of a moditlcatlon of duties and the extension of the theory of reciprocity. Two classes of people may profit by a careful study of the proceedings of the association. One of these Is composed of the ultra protectionists who are now crying out against those who have expressed the opinion that the Dingley tariff, adequate as it was at the time of its enactment to meet th conditions as they then existed, should be modified to meet the changed conditions. The other class is composed of those who call themselves revenue reformers, but are. In fact, freetraders, and who are now breaking a silence of six years by reiterating their heresies, which every nation but one In the world has rejected. . Whatever modifications may be made in the tariff it must retain its protective feature?, because largely to the protective policy the United States owes Its lead In the Industrial world and Its present prosperity. Nor must we. In the elation consequent upon the growth of our foreign trade, forget that the best markets in the world are the home markets, and that it would be a folly for which labor and capital would pay dearly to sacrifice any portion of them for the chance of competing in limited markets with a host of rivals. The principle embraced in the resolution of the National Association of Manufacturers, adopted on Thursday, is the true one, and Is so well and concisely stated that It is quoted, as follows: The object of tariff legislation should be to furnish adequate protection to such products only as require it, without providing for monopoly abuses. The tariif on goods of which the cost of production is higher in the United States than in foreign countries should be at least what is necessary to compensate domestic Industries for the higher cost of production. The foregoing is a reasonable policy because it secures the American market to our own people, which Is the present policy of every leading nation except Great Britain, which, because it does riot return to that policy, is losing ground. Foreign competitors, unrestrained by tariff duties, are wresting British markets from British producers. An Englishman. H. W. Maerosty, has Just published a book in London, in which he describes the growth of combinations in Great Britain. British railway rates are controlled by two conferences. In the textile trades, Industries embracing 236 firms, having a capital of $187500.000. have been combined. In Birmingham a score of Industries. Including spring mattress, metal tube, brass-working, rope, galvanized iron, builders' iron, chinaware, coffin?, furniture and pottery trades, are allied In trusts, embracing D0O employes and 20,000 workmen.

Mr. Carnegie's gifts are not of the kind which can very well be concealed from the left hand when the right hand passes them out; the whole world necessarily knows about them, and so it Is that the giver has in full measure such reward as comes from popular approval and praise. It must be said that he seems to enjoy the attentions and who wouldn't? Sarah Bernhardt, having appeared as Hamlet and as IAiglon. has evidently decided that she perfers to portray male characters. Her appearance as Romeo to Maude Adams's Juliet will be a notable event In theatrical circles. Whether it will be an artistic success or not is another matter. A missionary has given the key to the front gate of the inner city of Teking to the National Museum at Washington. Who gave it to the missionary is not stated. MISCELLANEOUS BREVITIES.

We do not treat h;m as if we considered him of some importance. We cannot kill him. of course, but we wart to make him feel that he stane's on the same footing with any other Filipino. If we should fine him $10 and send him to jail for thirty diys and set him to breaking rock It would be better for hirn and for ourselves. If. when he comes over here, we treat him with contempt, he will le treated with contempt by the natives when he goes home. But. If over there they get the idea that we have a high idea of Aguinaldo's Importance, when he gets back he will have a following which will make us trouble.''

The Philippine commission, he said, desired to treat the friars the same as any other persons, with no other consideration and with no less.

LAST DRESS PARADE

CL LVEIt CADETS IlItCAK R AX KS FOR THE M MM Ell VACATION. MednU and Promotion The Final IZx. crclses Other Commencements Throughout the State. Special to the Indianapolis Journal. CULVER. Ind., June 7. Culver Military Academy closed to-day after a week of varied and Interesting military exercises and social features. Many distinguished visitors were present, among them Governor Shaw, of Iowa. On his arrival at the academy a salute of seventeen guns was fired by the cadet battery of artillery. The daily military exercises have consisted of regimental parade, infantry, artillery and signal drills, battle exercises and (JraecoRoman and rough riding by members of the cadet Black Horse Troop. The cadets Impart to their drill a "snap" and beauty of execution that makes it a pleasure to look upon even to those unacquainted with its technical details. The final dress parade of the year Is one of the most Impressive of a week of pretty and effective scenes. The long motionless line of gray and white and gold, the background of lakes and trees, the booming of the evening gun, and the Inspiring strains of "The "Star-spangled Banner," as the national colors lloat slowly down the staff, combine to make a stirring scene that elicits from the spectators the tribute of Impressive silence. Instinctively tht visitor rises and stands uncovered until the last strain has died away and "Old Glory' has completed Its stately Journey down its tall, white staff. Then comes the manual of arms. Every piece moves as if by a single impulse, every white gloved hand moving to the shoulder or dropping to the side as one. And now the command Is "Commissioned officers front and center, marcn!" but this last evening they ate not alone, for benind them marcn every member of tne graduating class.-' They halt before the major, wno congratulates them on the completion of their military course. They then torm behind him ana tne battalion is passed in review. The riuing school exercises of the cadets have been a feature much enjoyed by every visitor. They were carried away Dy the nerve and auandon of the cadets as they dashed over hurdles, standing GraeeoUomati style on three hörst or sprang irom the ground to a standing position on the horse's back, while it was galloping, or vaulted to the back of a flying steea, twisting in air and landing witn back to the horse's head, or performed some other oaring feat of horsemansnip, and when the control of rider over stetrd was pleasingly illustrated by the throwing of horses in four seconds the audience expressed Us appreciation in salvos of applause that would have stampeded any but a weil-tralned troop of horses. The final ball of last evening was the principal social event of commencement. It was oj t-ned oy a cotilon. executed by the cadet officers and their partners, the booming ot a cannon announcing the start. The graduation exorcists proper took place this morning. A class of thirty-six cadets was graduated. Essay were read by graduates, and after a brief address by Colonel Fleet, the superintendent, the battalion was marched to the parade ground, where, in accordance with time-honored custom, the oltlcers of the graduating class were relieved from duty, new appointments and promotions announced, arms stacked and the battalion dismissed for the summer after the playing of "Auld Lang Syne."

Married a Daughter of Ex-Governor Raster, of Wyoming, nnd Recently Sailed for Yokohama. DENVER, Col., June 7. Ex-Governor Baxter, of Wyoming, received a cablegram this morning from his daughter, Mrs. Hugh Tevls, now at Yokohama, announcing her husband was dead, and that she would return to San Francisco on June 29. Mr. Tevls started with his bride for a tour of the world two days after their marriage, which took place at San Francisco on April 10. Several letters had been received from them, none of which gave any hint of illness. Immediately on receiving the cablegram Mr. Baxter wired his daughter for the name of the ship on which she would sail for home, and further particulars of her husband's death.

This place, one of the finest on the coast, is now being enlarged and partly rebuilt.

GOOD WEEK IN BUSINESS

oxe on two n.tn stots iiAvn little GEXERAL EFFECT, Cereal Movement Is Very Heavy, but Iron and Steel Are More QuietHeavy Root nnd Shoe Trade. NEW YORK. June 7. R. G. Dun & Co.'t Weekly Review of Trade to-morrow will say: The labor situation In many parts of the country Is still seriously unsettled and constitutes a reason for hesitation in some Industries, discouraging new operations which satisfactory conditions would otherwise stimulate. But quick decision is to b expected In some of these labor controversies and in the meantime trade is encouraged by reports of a satisfactory condition of winter wheat over a large portion of the country. As for spring wheat, the crop was put In under very favorable conditions and there have been few unsatisfactory reports. Railroad earnings for May. ?.i per cent, in excess of lyoo, and 2.32 over KO, reflect a continued activity In the country. The cessation of manipulation In corn contributed to a decline of 2.1 per cent, in breadstufts. Labor controversies hsve become the factor of greatest Importance In the leading manufacturing Industries. Counting. erhaps, upon the urgency of orders and heavy losses which would be suffered by employers in case of suspension, the machlr.lsti made what were considered unreasonable demands by employers and manufacturers, who have taken a determined ftand and announced that the strikers' places will b filled by nonunion men on Monday If they fall to resume work. More quiet conditions in the market and few new contracts make this action possible. As a rule manufacturers have not sought business beyond July 1 and It looks as though they had been preparing for the conflict. Pig iron Is extremely dull, not a sale of bessemer being reported during the week at Pittsburg, and quotations are nominal. Large contracts for rails sustain billets, and finished steel deliveries continue heavy. Shipments of farm machinery attract much attention while bridge building, new vessels and track elevation prevent dullness in structural material. A slight flurry in July wheat at Chicago caused hasty covering und a sharp advance which was of short duration, as moderate profits were quickly taken. Abundant production in the United States does not necessarily mean weak prices, for European crops are falling below expectations and foreign purchases continue heavy; Atlantic exports for the week, flour Included, amounting to 4.51XU44 bu. against 2.S.V.21 bu last year and 1.M3.373 bu two years ago. Pacific exports also show good gains, reaching SM.515 bu. against 531.015 b j a year ago and 625.400 bu in W.i. Shipments of boots and shoes from Boston continue very large, for the last week exceeding the same week of 10 by 2n.no) cases, and since the year opened forwardlngs have b?en over two million cases, far surpassing any previous record. Although the movement is still heavy, shops receive few orders, and it will be some weeks before active work begins on fall contracts. Retailers are offering black goods for summer wear at reduced prices, and It is evident that the production of these shoes was excessive, while tan shoes have been In much greater demand, manufacturers beln pushed to fill contracts. Prices are steady and Jobbers report that the better qualities are sought. Bradstreet observes that, despite some Irregularity due to special conditions, the general trade situation shows an improvement, owing to better weather and crop conditions in most sections of the country. In the East the first real week of warm, sunny weather has been reflected in an Improved retail demand for seasonable fabric and wearing apparel, this in turn inducing more activity in Jobbing lines of dry goods, shoes and other products. The same Is trua of the Northwest, where needed rains havo quieted apprehensions as to the spring wheat outlook. A measurable improvement in crops at the South, however, the cotton being still two weeks late, has yet to le reflected In most Southern trace advices. Pacific coast crop, and trade advices are also better, but the reports of Impaired wheat and corn crop conditions In the Southwest and the quieter trade there, where activity has been heretofore great, relieves the general trade report of the reproach of monotony. There Is a better tone In textiles, due partly to an improved distribution In Stimmer dry goods, and also to better reorders for woolen goods for fall delivery. Cotton is speculatively higher, despite rather better crop reports, because of the tendency to shade estimates of the Increase in acreage this year. A fair trade Is doing In new woolens. Induced by necessary buying of manufacturers, but no additional strength Is noted as to prices, high-grade wools being best held, while medium and coar.se grades still favor buyers.

The fact that there were no Jurors at the Inquest Weckler exllained by saying that the girl' death appeared to have bet n a naturitl one and that, in order not to delay his witnesses, as the Jurors were slow in comlns. he took the part of Jury himself and substituted names out of his own head to fill up the report. He said he left Chicago when the trial began because he had been told his tetlmo? oulJ not be needed by the bute.
