If the price of coal keeps go ing up as It has done for the past ten days, the fad may acquire n considerable following —•— I In Chicago the other day a club war formed for the purpoce of "urging the usefulness of men past 15 years of age." Il seems that In that city a man of 45 years or more has difficulty In securing employment, because of his age. Oan It be true that the Chi ago man becomes "oM" at 15? Heretofore. In other com munities. It has been the custom to re gard a man of 45 as being in the prime of life. Again titers Is talk of removing the wreck of the Maine from Havana harbor, and Incidentally of determining from an examination of her bottom as to how she met her fate. Schemes for raising the vessel have been perennial ever since she went down, but she still lies In the mud at the bottom of the harbor. Into which she Is sinking deeper and deeper. The chance* are that the secret of the fatal explosion will never be known. Father McGrath, of St. John's Cathollc Chureh. Newburgh, N.

Miss Hollis Ermine Rives of Kentucky, kinswoman of the lady who. before her several marriages, was Amelia Rives, au thor of "The Quick or the Dead," and la row a Princess Hornet h i ng-or-Ot her. has written a book that Is said to be a "warmer" article, by several degrees, than the story by the former Mtss Rives. The new book. If some of Its critics are re liable, will have to be bound In asbestos, and when the reader lays It aside It will have to be into a tub of cold water to pievent the calling out of the fire de* pertmtsil.

It l# pointed out that when we *< nt troop* to China it was distinctly stated that the purpose w#s to re* u* our minister and the member* of our lega tion who were besieged in Pekin. It was stated that ti* noon at that wn ac< om plbted our trooj** would le withdrawn. Minister Conger and all the member* of our Pekin Ideation are safe. The purport for which we invaded China hit* been nr compllahed. Why then should we not withdraw? We have not declare*! war against China, and we have no good reaeon for keeping troop* on her soli. We have In fact, done h great deal more than we ee# out to do. We tiave M*nt troops to various place* In the vicinity of Pekin to aid native Christian* in escaping ffom the Boxers. and. if report# ar*- correct, our eoldicr* have done a great deal of looting. All things considered we have done China* alout all the Injury we have any excuse for doing her, and all we ought to do her, uni* ** we Intend to rob her of *om> of her territory. Before doing that we ought to put her on notice hy declaring war against her. At present we are poking as her friend. There is a suspicion that tho German note w*a* constructed with the view of securing nn excuse for a w # nr on China, and the taking of a part of her territory. It Is hardly probable that the Chinese gov ernment wuld or could give up the |.irtlc* responsible for the Pektfl outrages against international law If the Powers should mnk'* the demand for their surrender, and It does not appear that the Power* have the right to make such a demand, li t* certain that no government having the ability to resist would respond favor ably to a demand >f that kind. The po sition of our government I*, that China should drat be given the opportunity to punish the guilty parties. It Is worthy of notice that our govern ment la collecting a large fleet on the Asiatic station. It is apprehending trouble In China notwithstanding its de cision to withdraw from Chinese terri tory? TEt WSHtI’S t mKSTMKVrs. Some twq month* ago we dl*cu**ed steamship* a* an Investment for the ac cumulating idle capital In this country, and ventured the <ptr.lon that It would not be surprising If the American bust n ** men should solve the problem of hull Hi g. owning and operating such shljw profitably "before Congress gets through talking about the plan for subsidizing steamship line*." Since that lime a Ttoston syndicate, headed by a well known banking Arm. has reached Ihe conclusion that the American merchant marine offers oppor tunities for earning fair Interest. It has, therefore, determined to Invest ll.stD.ntM In two ll.WMon frelgb't steamers, and given the contract for their construction to the Maryland Steel Company, of Spar row Point, Md. The vessels are to be constructed of steel and tilted with all modem appliances for economically han dling cargo. They will not be put on any regular line, but are to be of the "tramp" class of vessels—the class so potent In British commerce—ready to touch at any port where a cargo may be obtained or to take a charter wherever a profitable one I* offered The members of the syn dicate hove no fear that the Investment will prove unprolltahle. On the other hand. they t are looking forward to the construction of other similar ships. The demand for freight room In deep sea uteamers haa been quite strong for the past twelve months. Indeed, the sup ply has been far short of the demand, owing to the withdrawal of so many freight canters for army transport ser vice. Meanwhile the export trade of the Hulled Slates has been growing rapidly. It is to day larger than ever before, with the prospects good for a continued heavy movement In th * condition of affairs Ihe Boston capitalists hate turned to tramp steamship owning as in Investment, and a prom ising soune of prollt. They have not waited to s< e If It wen possible lo se cure government aid for Ihrlr enterprise before entering the business They will enjoy government il protection In the * casting trade, but they expect also to compete for and secure whatever foreign trade may offer a profit. Discussing the placing of th order for these two shirs the Manufacturers' lle cord says: "For the first time since American shipping Interests lit gan to dr cline, as an accompaniment and o* a con * quence of the war between the North and the South, Investment In vessels as a distinct financial undertaking by a prom inent banking firm has been made." It Is reasonable to suppose thal this departure by the Boston capitalists will le followed shortly by capitalists of oth*r cities. It certainly will If. after the ships have been put Into commission, they give good promise of a fslr return upon the money Invested In them. Eighteen clergymen were nmoog the passenger* on the steamer I'mbrla on her recent trip across Ihe ocean And the vessel.

It I# *ald that many German financier* expressed great Indignation when they found that their government had placed a part of a recent loan In tho United State*. They tli dared their ability to taka all tho loan* their government had to of f- r. It may tie that they could have taken the bonds In question, but, for some rea son or other not disclosed, the German government decided to offer some of the bonds In ibis country. Doubtless the rea sons It had for doing so were eminently satisfactory ones. It has not been very long since England was a borrower In our money market, but there ta no evidence that British finan cier* felt aggrieved They were only too glad to gel some of our gold, which. It I* sail, the Bank of England needed badly. But It Is not our Intention to call at trntlon to thi* fact that European coun tries are borrowing money of us. Inn rath er to point out that an American finan cier ha undertaken fo construct an un derground railroad system for Igimlon It would have naturally been supposed that English engineers and English capitalists Would have undertaken thl* great work Somehow or other London I* rather alow about *uch matter*, and so a Chicago mow, Mr. Charles T. Yerke*. th* origina tor and builder of Chicago's street rail road system, went to London, secured the franchise, raised the money and will build the system Most of the money for the enterprise will be raised In this country. It Is said that London capitalist* really feel badly about this matter. They had no objection their government placing bonds In this country, but they do object decidedly to Americans coming to their city and building their rapid transit street railway systems It 1s evident that If they do not show a greater spirit of enterprise there will lie other great undertakings financiered by American*—undertakings that are really within the financial field of tho English. Senator Slew-art recently evinced a de sire lo go back lo hls pockel borough of Nevada to make political speeches for the Republican luirty. But Ihe Republican managers do not want Stewart lo get on Ihe stump, hence the)' have been trying to scare him out of hls proposed plans. They have been reminding him that out In the Rockies Ihe people sometimes have a way of hanging those who selt them gold bricks or otherwise practice fraud upon them. They remind him that the Nevadans elect ed him utMn the Issue of the "Crime of '7V which he has now deserted, and ask how he expects to Justify himself In his present lnwltlon In view of hls re cord on silver.
