SABBATH AND ANARCHY
hei, tionsiiii i)i$ctssi:i nv Tim rev. it. v. hunter. lliitor? Prove, lie Says, that Nations thnt Hespert the Day of Worship Are liest Governed. The IV? v. It. V. Hunter, pastor of the Seventh Presbyterian Church, preached to a large congregation yesterday morning on the subject of "Sabbath Desecration and Anarchism." He said in part: "Said John Bright, one of England's greatest commoners. 'The stability and character of our country and the advancement of our race depends very largely upon the mode in which the day of rest, which seems to have been especially adepted to the needs of mankind, shall be used and observed.' "The civil Sabbath is simply a day of rest. For the state to refuse to protect the Sabbath is to allow the hum of machinery, the rattle of business to proceed to the annoyance of those who dssire to worship. The Christian has the same rights of protection In his public worship under our Constitution that the merchant or the mechanic has in the prosecution of his business. The Supreme Courts have ever held that this is a Christian Nation. The taking of oaths, chaplaincies and thanksgiving and all these things are proof of that point. Hence we have a right to claim protection from our civil govern ment; while on the other hand religion is a thing apart from the state. The law of our land may enforce its civil Sabbath only. This is fair. The keeping or the nonkeeping of the civil Sabbath affects the individual, the family, society and the state and becomes, therefore, a proper subject for legislation. If it can be proved that the observance of civil Sabbath is of advantage to the health, education, assists in checking crime, elevates the home and strengthens the state then It must be admitted tnat the state has the right to enforce the civil Sabbath. It must do this as a part of its legitimate work. "Let the Issue bo well understood. It Is not for the Christian Sabbath that we are pleading with the police authorities and the State officers. We are pleading for the civil Sabbath. We mean by the civil Sabbath that the people must do nothing on that day which will interfere with those who do want to worship God, just asthe individual must do nothing which will interfere with you in your legitimate trade or profession through the week. We claim that this is perfectly consistent with the highest and truest liberty and will result in the better health, better education and in a better condition of society than to Ignore this day. Ir thi3 can be proved then we have established the right of the state to enforce the civil Sabbath. "It is necessary that we have a true conception of liberty. We must understand that liberty Jn the highest and best sense does not mean license for the individual to do as he pleases. True liberty is touched at every point with just limitations. It is not unbridled license. Too many of our own people ami too many of foreigners coming to this country mistake the meaning of liberty. Some take it to mean the privilege to be just as one pleases without reference to the character of our government, the rights of others are the permanency of our institutions. Anarchy will burn homes, take lives and trample upon Justice. In such a country real estate and life are worth but little. V nere there is no regard for law, for the rights of others, there is no safety. "We accept educational laws as consistent with liberty. Sunday is a means of education, hence consistent with liberty. Society has the right to check anything which will demoralize it. It has been demonstrated that where there Is no Sabbath every sin and crime is practiced. Drunkenness, gambling and dishonesty are rampant. Property is at the mercy of the mob. Virtue is unrecognized and hell and bedlam are turned loose. "History proves that nations with a Sabbath have had the purest morals and best government. Sabbath laws are consistent with liberty. Just now our Nation and the world are Inquiring what can we do to stamp out anarchism. We must teach and enforce respect for national, civil and divine law. Anarchism despises all of these." THE CALAMITY A LESSON. Sermon by Rev. R. A. Atkins, Recently Come from OreKon, The Rev. R. A. Atkins, recently transferred from the Oregon Conference to the Indiana Conference, occupied the pulpit yesterday morning at the Meridian-street M. K. Church. He spoke of the sorrow which this country has endured during the past week and likened it to other, events in the history of the world where trials and sorrowful events were only the forerunners of the glory to come. He said. In part: "Never In the history of the nations did such great sorrow manifest itself as we have suffered recentlj'. With his dying words. 'It's God will; let Ills will be done, all the nations professing Christianity trembled at the awful work perpetrated by the assassin. Why Is this so great an event? I have asked myself this question over and over again, but the only answer I can find is that it is like the martyr who died for his God. William McKinley died for his country and at the same time professing deeply his avowed faith in God. "Times before this Nation has gone into mourning for events similar to the one recently enacted. There is no doubt in my mind but the real reason these afflictions are thrust on the American people is to serve as a lesson to the coming generations. How often Is it that we find families who tre ever smitten with trials and afflictions. These, my friends, are but the signs of the coming glory which they will surely find in heaven. A great many of the trials of this world are the result of too much sin. With those who are thus tried their conscience works out the punishment. Those whose lives are pure and stainless are ever locking up to God and praying for deliverance, but adding. 'Not my will, oh, Lord, but thine, be done.' In this manner thev trust their lives and thoe of their families to the guidance of God. With this latter kind the regular course of events will explain all satisfactorily. It was St Paul who persecuted the Christians relentlessly and then, with the grace of God, became Christianity's most devoted adherent. When arrested and thrown into prison at the age of eighty years and told bv his captors that his head would be severed unless he forsook his chosen teachings he told them that he was ready and prayed for them while his head was being placed on the block. Men like St. Paul, who are troubled through their whole life, can see but one object before them, the crown of heaven. Never during his life as a Christian, and when confronted with the terrors of the Roman soldiers, did St. Paul llinch from their threats and punishments. "The glories of heaven are of such magnitude that all the sufferings of this world are but a drop compared with it. The life of the world to come is just as much a certainty as the life of to-day. We have the same chances as did the Apostle Paul. The greater our afflictions in this life the greater will be the reward in heaven." 9 A REASOVAKLE HLQIEST. Sermon !' Rev. G. L. Knox nt Second Presbyterian Clinreli. The Rev. George L. Knox, a prominent field worker for the Presbyterian Church, preached yesterday morning at the Second Presbyterian Church. There was no service tluie last evening. Mr. Knox based his sermon on Paul's epistle to the Romans, especially that paragraph wherein the apostle beseeched the masses of the poor Christians to give their living bodks as a sacrifice to God, a sacrifice mot acceptable to Hi:n. The preacher urgeJ understanding of the point that Paul beseeched th mborin people, calling them "brothers," to githemselves to God. and did not command them. In this, said Mr. Knox. Paul, who was the m st highly honored of the apostbs by l)'ing givn th most important work to do. followed the example of his Master, who never commanded mortals to do His bid. ling iis His servants, but besihed thera to take their rightful places as His sons und daughters. If gratitude cannot move men o God, said Mr. Knox. n other motive under the stars will move rhm to consecrate themselves to Him. The preacher also empha
sized the condition that God's request is a reasonable one. Men are equipped with rational thought, and it i. to their rationality that God appeals. Christ, said Mr. Knox, died in expiation of sin. and the sacrifice of death was ncv-r demanded by God thereafter. It is the sacrifice of the living body, the devotion to activeservice that is beseeched now.
iji:af Mm:s' mkmokiai.. Rev. Mr. Mann Contracts A illiaiu McKinley nnil Czolgrocz. The deaf mutes of the c:ty congregated In the chapel of Christ Church yesterday afternoon to listen to a memorial address in the sign language by the Rev. A. W. Mann, general missionary for the Episcopal Church. His address was in part: "The dying words of a great man recall to our minds some of the utterances of others who have passed into history. The last words of William McKinley, 'Good-bye all; it's God's will," are food for thought among Christians, lie leaves to us the heritage of a noble example; first, as a statesman, he did his werk nobly; second, as a husband whose lovable nature we all know so well, and third, as a professed Christian. "The shot from the assassin's pistol sent one already high in the realms of fame into a higher realm. It sent another away down to the regions of perdition. Compare the lives of these two men and see the great contrast in them. In one we see the Godlike Christian statesman and in the other the foul assassin. What has made this difference? With the first it is the result of culture and the reading of good literature and keeping good company; with the other it is the result of reading seditious literature and keeping bad company." Talk on "Ideal Mnnhood." The Rev. "W. C. Taylor, of the Collegeavenue Baptist Church, talked yesterday afternoon at the Y. M. C. A. building to a number of young men upon "Ideal Manhood." He said that the purpose of the world' was for goodness, yet man left alone had become degenerated and needed help. He said God's character was such that only goodness could come from Him and that lie fu!!y lived up to the character for which man mut look for a model. Jesus Christ, be said, was the exemplification of Go I In. human form in order that man might pee to what he should attain. He said the true index of a man's character was to be found in his thoughts those thoughts which occupied the mind when it was free from care and burdens the thoughts which come to the mind as one falls into sleep and when lying down for rest with nothing to worry about. He argued In favor of pleasant dispositions, which result from ideal thoughts, and mentioned a case in this city where recently a young man competent in every way to hold high position had lost his place and was unable to find another because of unsuitable disposition. He said ideal manhood would not result without Christ and the living up to the life of which He set the example. "Manhood is as much given of God as salvation." he said. "God comes to give us manhood as He gave it to McKinley, to Paul and to Moody." Colored Memorial Service. Allen Chapel, A. M. E. Church, was well filled yesterday afternoon at the memorial meeting held in honor of President McKinley. Gurley Brewer. Trofcssor Lewis and the pastor of the church, the Rev. R. F. Hurley, made addresses eulogizing the late President. Mrs. Knox sang. AN EXPLORER'S PLANS HARRY DK WINDT TO MAKK ANOTHER HAZARDOUS JOURNEY. Will Attempt to Cross Northern Siberia from Ynkntsk to Hering Straits This "Winter. Corr.ipondnca of the Associated Tress. LONDON, Sept. 13. Mr. Harry De Windt, the explorer, is about to make a third attempt to accomplish an overland journey via Bering strait between Europe and America. On the first occasion, starfing from New York, he managed to reach the Asiatic coast of the straits, but owing to his capture and subsequent ill treatment by Koari, the Tchuktchl chief, he narrawly escaped with his life and had to return. Last year he again attempted the journey in the reverse direction, but owing to the political situation in China and on the Amur, Count Lamsdorff refused to allow him to cross Siberia, and again Mr. De Windt had to relinquish the idea. Now, however, Mr. De Windt is receiving assistance from the Russian and American authorities, including Commodore Melville in Washington, as a result of which he intends to start on the journey forthwith. Early in November George Harding, who has accompanied Mr. De Windt on all his previous travels, will proceed from Paris to Yakutsk, where he will get together dog and reindeer teams and will await Mr. De Wlndt's arrival. On Dec. 10 Mr. De Windt will leave Paris and travel by the Trans.siberian Railway direct to the terminus of Irkutsk, which place will be reached on Dec. 20. Thence the traveler will proceed to Yakutsk, a distance of 1,300 miles, involving a three weeks' sleigh journey. Arriving at Yakutsk early in January Mr. De Windt will join Mr. Harding, who will then have in readiness the Impedimenta for the long journey to Bering straits. A fortnight will be spent at Yakutsk, and the third week of January the two travelers will proceed northeast over an uninhabited and .practically unknown country to Nijni Kolymsk, the most remote northeasterly settlement of Russia on the Arctic ocean. This region is never visited except by an occasional Siberian trader, although one portion of it was traversed by an American traveler when searching lor the survivors of the Jeanette. Between Yatkutsk and Nijni Klimsk, 'a distance of l.J) miles, transport will be by means of reindeer teams. Beyond rough government shanties, known as "povarni," erected every hundred verts to enable a stray traveler there to light a fire, there are no habitations, and the travelers will have to sleep in the open. This portion of the journey, and especially that over the Verkhoyamsk mountains, will be attended with considerable difficulty. It is expected the settlement of Nijni Kolymsk, which has a population of political exiles, will be reached in February, and there Mr. De Windt hopes to fall in with a, Tehukchi fur or ivory caravan returning to one of the small settlements on the shores of Bering strait. It is, of course, Mr. De Windfs intention to carefully avoid Oumvadjik, the settlement where he nearly lost his life, and to make for East Cape, lij miles to the north and 1..hi miles from Nijni Kolymsk, reaching there in the middle of April. Mr. De Windt will then cross on the ice to Cape Prince of Wales, the most westerly point of America, where Bering straits are only about the same width as the English channel at Dover. Should the ice conditions not be favorable, the American revenue cutter Bear wiil. by arrangement with the Washington Navy Department, call fur Mr. IV Windt and convey him across the strait! whence he will return either by way of thi Yukon or McKenzie rivers to San Francisco. Winnipeg and New York, which city it i hoped will be rachd in June next. Mr. De Windt's chief object is to survey the country northetst of Yakutsk, to which point the Russian government is projecting a railway next year from Irkutsk. Yakutsk will then be the junction of the Manchurian and Siberian section. From Yakutsk to Bering straits, which, with the exception of one mountain range, is all fiat, will be surveyed in view of a possible extension of railways. On the American side surveyors are alr'ady working on the northern extension of the Klondike Railway to the American shore of Bering Mraits. Although comparatively narrow the terrific currents and hv Hoes preclude the possibility of a bridge connecting the two continents, but Belgian and American engineers I have under consideration the' construction of the tunnel. The straits are in no part deeper than twenty-five fathoms. Would you trust to luck and not Insure our home against fire? of course not Why trust to luck in regard to the title to your real estate?

HUNTING IS PROHIBITED
FEAT1 RE OF NEW GAME LAW THAT IS NOT GENERALLY UNDERSTOOD. No Shooting: of Any Kind In the State from Oct. 1 to Nov. lO Without u Commissioner's Permit. An important feature of the Indiana game law that is not generally understood Is the total prohibition of shooting game of any kind from the 1st of October to the 30th of November. This prohibition is found in Section 10, of the law of V.01. Section 11, however, provides that V.. T. Sweeney, of Columbus, commissioner of fisheries and game, may issue permits to reputable persons to shoot during the forty days of prohibition. These permits do not allow the killing of game for which there is a special close season, such as quail, etc. In fact. the prohibition wa3 enacted especially to protect quail, which it is unlawful to shoot, except from the 10th of November to the 1st of January. Previous experience had shown that disreputable hunters would pretend to be looking for squirrels, rabbits, doves and water fowls, when, in reality, they would be hunting quail before the end ofthe close season. The issuance of permits, it is presumed, will safeguard the quail. In order that there may be no misunderstanding as to the scope of the ncv; game law, the Journal here reproduces its main features, as taken from the acts of iwi: "Section 1. Be It enacted bv the General Assembly of the State of Indiana, that whoever shoots or destroys, or pursues for the purpose of shooting or destroying, or has in his or her possession any quail, ruffled grouse, prairie chicken, or pinnated grouse, at any time from the 1st day of January of any year to the 10th day of November of the same' year, or whoever shoots or kills more than twenty-four quail in any one day shall be deemed guilty of a misdemeanor and upon conviction thereof, shall be fined 510 for each quail, ruflled grouse, prairie chicken, or pinnated grouse so shot or destroyed, pursued, or had in his or her possession to which may be added imprisonment in the county jail for any period not to exceed ten days. "Sec. 2. Whoever sells, or ofTers for sale, directly or indirectly, at any time, any quail shall be deemed guilty of a misdemeanor and. upon conviction thereof, shall be fined $10 for each quail sold or offered for sale, to which may be added Imprisonment in the county jail for a period not to exceed ten days. "Sec. 3.

DEFEATED THE ALLIES
COLO.M11IAN REGULARS WON A DECIDED VICTORY NEAR LA 1IACIIA. Detail of the Reeent Rntfle In NYhlcli Venezuelans and Liberals "Were Routed A General Shot. WILLEMSTAD, Island of Curacao, Sept. 22. Tne Venezuelan gunboat Myranda has arrived at Caracas from Guajira badly in need of repairs. She cannot go to sea again until she has been overhauled. Her commander brings news confirming the reports of the defeat of Colombian Liberals and their Venezuelan allies near La Hacha Sept. 13 and 14. It appears that the Colombian regulars withdrew and scattered as the Liberals and Venezuelans advanced, and then gathered again in larger numbers, surrounding Gea. Davia Davila's command just prior to the engagement of the 14th. There is still no reliable Information as to the number killed. An Indian chief named Jose Dolores, whose followers are fighting with the Colombian government, is reported to have cut off General Davila's retreat to Venezuelan territory. It is now persistently reported that the Colombians have captured and shot General Echheverria. Inquiries seem to show that he was born in Barranquilla, Colombia, and was a Colombian. If shot, it was because he was a native who had aided foreigners to invade Colombia. There is no cioubt that he was the commander of the Venezuelan gunboat lately cruising before Lahacha and Guajica. The decree under which he is reported to have been executed was published about a month ago. It characterizes as treasonable and punishable with death the act of a Colombian invading Colombia with foreigners. Whether executed or not there is no reasonable doubt that General Echeverria has been captured by the Colombians. It is rumored that about two hundred wounded have reached Maracaibo. The Venezuelan government has just acquired S50 tons of coal in Caracas, which was shipped to-day to Fort San Carlos and Maracaibo. It was npt paid for before departure, and the owner vainly attempted to stop the shipment. THEY DWELL IN CAVES STRANGE PEOPLE FOUND IN THE NORTHWESTERN PART OF MEXICO. Dr. Cnrl Lnropolts Tells of His Ex. perleneea Among Indians Who lire 8,000 Feet Above the Sea. Correspondence of the Associated Press. CHRISTIANL. Sept. 16. Last night Dr. Carl LumpoltB, the traveler and explorer, who has been spending the last five years in the hitherto unknown regions of northwestern Mexico in the interest of the American Museum of Natural History of New York, and who is the first white man that has lived among the cave-dwellers in those remote parts, made his first appearance In public slnee his return to cIviliEation, lecturing before the Geographical Society at this place "on his Mexican travels and discoveries. The lecture was held In the hall of the university and was attended by a large audience, among those present being the Norwegian prime minister and many scientific and political persons of prominence. The lecture bristled with Incidents of the life and travels of Dr. Lumpoltz among the wild Indian tribes of western Sierra Madre, and especially among the cave-dwellers, who still live in the same primitive way as their forefathers many thousands of years ago in these almost inaccessible regions, 8,000 feet above the sea. In order to study these people Dr. Lumpoltz ordered the entire staff of his expedition to return. He then commenced to live alone among them. At first the tribes resisted his taKlng up his abode among them, but eventually he gained their confidence and was allowed to remain. He learned their ways, their language and their songs and Joined in their dances. One chief among the cave-dwellers even went so far as to otter him his daughter in marriage, and on another occasion he was almost compelled to marry one of the girls belonging to the Cora tribe. This was at the express wish of the girl's family, the only condition named being that he should settle down among the tribe. The Mexican Indians are monogamists and lead on the whole a very happy existence. Among many of the tribes he found a higher degree of morality than in civilized countries. They are highly intelligent, and are. the lecturer said, a race far superior to their kinsmen in the United States and South America. Theft and diseases are both unknown among them. Tho land is held In common. Their principal food consists of Indian corn and beans. They attain a great age. Both men and women of 100 years and over are often met with in the pine regions. They are polytheists, their principal worship consisting of religious dances and festivals. Foot racing is one of their favorite sports, and they are very fond of betting. The wagers generally consist of bows, arrows, blankets, beads, etc. The large and interesting collection of native pottery, implements and utensils which the lecturer brought with him for the American Museum of Natural History will, he thinks, throw a new light on many hitherto unknown periods in the history of the evolution of mankind.

DIAMONDS FROM SUGAR
RESULTS OF A FRENCH CHEMIST'S 4 OS TIA" EXPERIMENT. Eitoruioti Decree of Heat and Heavy Prenure Necessary lo Produce Gems from Saccharine Carbon. i WASHINGTON. Sept. 22. "How to make diamonds out of sugar" would be a recipe, perhaps, which would be more valued than anything ever referred to in cook books. The recipe exists, however, and the operation is possible, but it requires special appliances. Sugar Is carbon, and diamonds are carbon, only the latter have been subjected to Immense heat and tremendous pressure. The idea that diamonds could be made out of sugar is nothing new. It prevailed many years ago among savants, and numerous experiments have been made to carry out the process, but without success. As long ago as lS a French chemist named Gannal imagined that he had solved the problem by treating carburet of sulphur with pure phosphorus. He obtained a number of tiny sparkling stones which at first sight appeared to be diamonds, but which were nothing more than particles of glass proceeding from the glass tubes which be had used in the experiment. Gagniard de Latour, and later Despretz. continued in the fascinating search which seemed to promise results surpassing the fabulous "philosophers stone." Despretz used charcoal, which he subjected to intense heat produced by an electric arc and a blowpipe. The result was that he obtained tiny particles of gemlike brilliancy, which were so hard that cne could cut rubies with them. But they were not diamonds. In England a chemist named Marsden succeeded one day in manufacturing tiny gems which were real diamonds, but lie was never able to repeat the experiment. His subsequent attempts resulted in the production of a crystal so hard that it would scratch diamonds and which was called carborandum. It was a useful discovery and the substance is now manufactured for industrial purposes in this country. ELECTRICITY EMPLOYED. M. Moissan, a member of the French Institute, has solved the question of the manufacture of diamonds from carbon substances. M. Moissan'a diamonds, thus made, cut real diamonds the supreme test. The element that contributed to M. Moissan's success was electricity. He knew that what was needed to transform worthless carbon into precious stones wa3 Intense heat' and tremendous pressure, and he attributed the failure of all his predecessors to the fact that none of them had been able to obtain a sufficient degree of heat or a pressure sufficiently powerful. They had to content themselves with 2,000 degrees centigrade, the greatest heat possible even in chemists' laboratories. This was plainly insufficient for the purpose. M. Moissan therefore set about constructing an electric oven which. In its present perfection, is capable of producing a heat of from 4,000 to 5.oij0 degrees centigrade. In order to give an idea of this heat it may be said that, subjected to it, the human body would entirely disappear in less than a second of time, without leaving behind it a particle of ash. Tho oven used for the manufacture of diamonds is not large enough to cremate the human body;, it is a small, neat and simple affair. It is formed of two blocks of limestone, the one fitting on top of the other. Both blocks are hollowed out in such a way that, wkn adjusted, there is, in the center, a small cylindrical cavity. Two grooves conducting to the lower half of this cavity are tunneled out in tho lower block. The two stones are incased in iron, and, when they are adjusted, they are fastened together by an iron band which is tightened by a screw. The two electrodes, connected with a powerful generator, are pushed inbo the groove until they touch a cylindrical charcoal crucible, which has been fitted into the cjiindrical cavitj This charcoal crucible contains the substance which is to be subjected to the effects of the heat produced. As soon as the current is turned on huge white flames burst out of the oven on either side. The intensity of this light is said to be absolutely blinding, so that the spectator can faintly realize what a temperature of from 4,000 to 5,000 degrees means. The limestone of which the oven Is made Is, however, so bad a conductor of the enormous heat that the hand may be placed on the top of the stove during the operation without the slightest inconvenience. THE PROCESS. But now to obtain the enormous pressure requisite for the manufacture of the diamond. A source of annoyance to householders and of joy to plumbers Is the pressure exerted by Ice. Just as this pressuro Is exerted by water in freezing, so does molten iron, in solidifying, exercise a pressure against anything in which it may be inclosed. The more rapid the solidification the more Intense the pressure. Water solidifies elowlj', and hence the damage it causes in pipes and Juars is not of an explosive or violent nature. M. Moissan obtained the pressure he wanted by the following method: He nild the little charcoal crucible with broken bits of iron and carbon of Fugar. The crucible was filled in this way about half its depth. It was then placenl in the hollow cavity prepared for Its reception in the lower half of the elejtric stove. The top of the stove was then adjusted, th2 electrodes, connected with a poveriul generator, were pushed into the grooves tunneled out in the lower stone and the current turned on. A roaring sound ctisurdt white flames burst out on either side cf the electric stove, and a cloud of white -taper hung like a fog overhead. Two or three minutes later tho upper stone was removed by means of i gigantic pair of tongs, and the Interior of the elec tric stone revealed. The charcoal crucible was bubbling and hissing with the hottcsl broth of molten metal ever brewed. Then it was plunged into cold water, ami tho molten metal, thus suddenly subjected to a temperature lower by several thousand degrees than that in which it had been heated, began to solidify. When the metal was cold and solid throughout it was removed from the crucible. This was done bv breaking the charcoal with a hammer. A shapeless lump of lretted Iron came out. and this lump of iron contained in the form of r:al diamonels the powdered sugar which was put into the crucible live or six minutes before. The next task was to get these diamonds out of the iron. This was done by solution in various acids. It was a long and tedious process, but finally all the mell disappeared, leaving at the bottom of the last test tube the precious stones. Scientists express doubt as to whether this discovery will be of practical u-? and lead to a reduction of the price cf dia monds. There is much expense ii-volwd ir. the process, and the diamonds produced are small. M. Moissan believes th danger lies elsewhere, however. He thinks th.tr befote long the natural wells or crccibles in which the splendid gems of Bi.:zil were formed will be discovered. Then, inde.d, he says, tne market will be flood,-!. FEARLESS AS EVER.

Mr. Kootevrlt'ft !nr.eapIU I Iterances Recalled an Defining; Policies. WASHINGTON. Sept. 22. Many persons are now calling attention to Mr. Roosevelt's speech at Minneapolis on Sept. X. as
defining the President's po'ley on certain questions. In thnt speech Mr. Roosevelt said: "No hard and fat rule can be laid down a. ti where jr legislation shall top in Interfering Ixtweon man and mui; between 1ntrrst and interest. All that can b paid is that it is highly desirable on the on bird not to weaken lnellvidual initiative, and. on the other hand, that in a constantly increasing number if a.es we shall find it nece-s-nry in the future to shackle cunnir.g as In the pat we have shackbd force. "It is pot only highly desirable, but necessary, thai there tdiould be- legislation which shall carefully shield the interests of wage workers and which shall discriminate in tavor of the ho:i.t atai humane employer by removing the disadvantage under whieh h- stands when com pa reel with unscrupulous competitor who have no con-
cience and will h right only under tear .d punishment. Nor can legislation ftop v.ith what are termeei labor questions. Tho vast individuil and corporate fortunes, tba vast combinations of capital which have marked the leveiopment of our industrial system, create new conditions and make necessary a change from the old attitude of the State and nation toward property. "There is only the scantiest justification for most of the outcry against men oi wt-alth as such; and it ought te be unnecessary to suite that any appeal wbicn finally entails the possibility of lawlessness and violence i- an r.ttack upon the fundamental piopirt'es of American citizenship. Our interests are. at bottom, common. In the- long run .we go up or go down together. "Yet more And more It is e vident that the state, and. if necessary, the nation. ha got to possess the right of supervision and control as n-ards the gre'at corporations. wnicli ar' it. re-ature-; particularly as regards the rre-at business combinations which derive a portion uf their importance from the existence of some monopolistic tend ncy. . "As to our relation lo foreign powers, our Nation, while first of all seeing to Its own domestic well-being, must not shrink from playing its part among the great nations without. "Our duty imay take many forms in the future, as itthas taken many forms in the past. Nor is' it possible to lay down a hard ami fast rule fur ull case. We muft ever face the fact of ur shifting national ned and the always ( hanging opportunities that present themselves. Rut we may 1 certain f one thln. whether we wish it or not: We cannot iivoid hen-arter having dutic to do In the jface of either nations. All that we can elo is: to settle whether we shall perform these duties well or ill. "Let us make it evident that we intend to do justice-. Then let us make it eejuaily evident that- we will not tolerate Injustice being done Co us in return. Let us further make it evident that we use no word which we. ar not prepared to back up with deeds, and that while our speech is always moderate, we are ready and willing to make good. 'Such an attitude will be the surest possible guarantee of that self-re spectlng peace the attainment of which Is and must ever be the prime aim of a selfgoverning people. "This is the attitude we must take a regards the Monroe doctrine. We do not by this doctrine intend to sanction any policy of aggression by one American commonwealth at the expense of another, nor any policy of commercial discrimination against any foreign! power whatsoever. Commercially, as far as this doctrine is concerned, all we wish ;s a fair field and no favor. But if wc are wise we shall strenuously Insist that under ho pretext whatever shall there be any territorial aggrandizement on American soil by any European power, and this no matter what form the territorial aggrandizement may take.' I'topian Dreams. RERL1N. ? Sept. 22. Discussing the prospect of tarfff reform in the United States, the Rerline-r Post says: "To expect of President Roosevelt the overthrow of th mighty forces which control the United States and its economic policies to-day Is to indulge in Utopian dreams. The threatened free trade era in the United States will not be realized. We can secure tariff treaties with America only when. we compel them through an autonomous tariff." Spaniards 'to HooseTclt.

The depreciation of values on" the Berlin Boerse contlnueel throughout last week, almost without interruption. The stagnation became more snd more marked as the welc advanced, ths lowest figures of the year being reached at the end. The market Is still under the influence of the Breslau and Heilbron Incidents. A depressing effect was also caused by the latest published balance sheets of Jhe industrial companies, which Fhow heavy reductions in earnings. Another untoward influence was the report publi.hed regarJIng the affairs of the various mortgage banks recently In difficulties, showing worss conditions than had been expected. Ths committee investigating tho affairs of ths Pomeranian Mortgage Bank reported y-i-terday, estimating the loss on mortgages covering obligations to be 16,000.000 martcs ar.d the annual interest loss from obligations over 1.0-.O.000 marks. The commitf also expressed a ccnvictlem that the entlrs capital of the institution was lost. It recommended the reorganization of the bank by the holders of the obligations and a conwbiem of these into stock. The week's industrial reports coincids, showing eieteriorating conditions. The Essen and Iusseldorf boerses agree that the Iron situation is still weakening. The Cologne Gazette says: "The rituatlon is very unsettled. The domestic market is less willing to buy, while the mills are making unusual exertions to get export orders, which are now not remunerative. German half-finished iron and steel now go to Great Rritain in large quantities, playing the same role there as the American product plaved lat year." The Vossische Zeitung points out that overproduction exists throughout the whols irn trade and urges a restriction of output. According to a dispatch from Chemnitz the textile and other industries in Saxony and Thuringia are sutTerlng keeniy. Several first-class firms hae very recently suspended. In some towns old and reliable factories have shut down. Others are reeluclng wages and dismissing employes. London Stock Exchange. LONDON. Sept. 22.
