Talk about Speaker Heed's whip as you please, but it must be admitted that there is considerable simp about the transaction of business in the House. Thk lteichsta is considering means ji American oil out of the Ger- jan marKei. in view 01 me iimm- lent state into which Oennnny's wal king frequently goes, we should think that the pouring in of our oil upon the troubled conditions would not be objected to. KxPHiUKNtinn mathematicians, such, as those who make out the mor tality tables of insurance companies, for instance, ought at once frHnvesti jrate the strange problem hidden in the nows that there are only 14 sur viving veterans of 1812, but 3,287 widows drawing pensions based on service rendered in that war. It is natural that there should be more, perhaps that there should be many more, widows than veterans, for some people who light for their country do get killed, while as few die of grief as of love, but in the present instance the ratio does seem somewhat exces sive. Men who participated in the struggle of 1812 could hardly have been much under SO years of age in that year, and most Of the marrying by survivors would naturally be dour within the next thirty years. That brings us up to 18-42 which is a good lj,9 ao. British opposition to the anima tion of Hawaii by the United States, manifested perhaps more vigorously hero than in Great Britain itself, is not in the least to be wondered at. It lias its origin in the very same causes ; make such annexation desirable, t is not to say the British oppose it just for the sake of opposing an American scheme, or that this coun try should persist in it just for tho sake of spiting Great Britain. By no means. Such motives would bo unworthy of any people superior in civilization to the Hottentots. The fact is, however, that there is a grow ing rivalry between the interests of the United States and of Great Britain in the Pacific Ocean. Tho acquisition of Hawaii would materi ally advanco tho interests of the United States over those of Great Britain. That is why this nation wants it, for its own good, rather than for any other nation's harm, and that is why Great Britain opposes it, in order to keep herself from being outstripped, rather than to prevent the prosperity of any one else. Tub real faots of the court martial of Captain Lovering at Fort Sheridan near Chicago, were not made a part of tho proceedings. Private Ham mond -was actually punished severely before trial, a procedure not war ranted in any kind of action. The sentence of the court itself could not have been more brutal than the act of dragging the soldier down stone steps and along the ilagging stones, bruising his head and ' shoulders. Thee can be no doubt that the oflloerfl at Fort Sheridan are capable of delivering and executing brutal sentences against privates ; the record of thjs fort, during its brief carreer, is suffluiently scandalous to warrant that niuoh. But it is certainly stroteEthy brutality to administer suohjiiunishinent before a trial. We bono fflg lost of this incident is not yet. -?he officers at Fort Sheridan should be scattered far and wide among other posts and a decent roster established therein at once. Meantime, Secretary Alger will ac cept assurances of the distinguished consideration of his countrymen for making matters as hot for Captain Lovering as possible. Undoubtedly the War Secretary will further forget to promote Lovering during the pres ent administration and in other ways occasionally remind the oflioer of his never to be forgotten dlsgraoe and the rights of the private soldier in Uncle Sam's employ. Tim wonderful upward trend of business under the MoKinley admin istration is shown in some statistics recently compiled, from which we glean the following faots: In October, 1H00, there were twenty-eight mis cellaneous manufacturing companies chartered, with an aggregate capital of $042,000. In October, 1897, forty similar oharters were granted, witli an aggregate capitalization of 8,800, 000. The actual increase in capitali zation was $2,400,000. The per cen tum Increase was close upon three hundred. Another illustration: In classified manufacturing companies incorporated the increase in Novem ber of 1897 over the corresponding period of 1BW5 was in actual capita lization $8,000,000, tho per oen turn was about five hundred. Finally, during November, 1896, existing corporations increased their capital stock and indebtedness to the amount of $72B,O00, while for the same month in 1807 these increases amounted to $10,300,000 auincrease in capitalization of $15,600,000, or about twenty-live hundred per cent. These are facts which cannot lie contro verted, mid they tell a story of re vived prosperity throughout the nation which in almost unparalleled in our liigtory. TO Ollltli A 001,1) IN ONI!

The competition to force sales of coal by cutting prices has resulted only in further demoral izing what littlo business was going without a corrcspohdiug result in increased sales. Tho milder weather of the past several days has also had an unfavorable Influence on the anthracite trade, causing n considerable de- croasa in tin consumption of fuel. Last week, fur tho first time in uuny months, several of the larger mining and carrying companies openly made an additional cut in pric s of from 15 to 25 cents or moroper ton, not only on coal from tidewater shipment but also for lino, and city delivery. This was followed by tho unoflicial, though apparently authentic, announcement that alt tho an thracite producing and transporting com panics bad agreed to restrict their output radically during the remainder of this mouth iu tho hope that prices will advance.

The house of lordB has rendered Judgment in Allen vs. Flood, a esse of much Interest to trade unions, and has sustained the appeal, Lords Ilerschell, MacNachten, Shand, Davey and James forming the major ity, and Lords Halsbury and Morris composing the minority. Two shipwrights, named Flood and Taylor, were employed In 1884 to repair the British ship Sam Weller, then lying at Mlllwall docks, Loudon. The boiler makers' union objected to shipwrights working on an iron ship, and their delegate, Allen, obtained the discharge of Flood and Taylor by threatening a strike of the bollermalters If they were not discharged. Later Flood and Tay lor sued Allen for wrongfully and ma liciously obtaining their dismissal, and were awarded WOO damages. Allen ap pealed to the house of lords, and his appeal has been sustained.

Her hands were tied behind her back and a piece of braid was wrapped tightly around her throat. An Investigation showed the place had been robbed of money and some goods. The robbers probably had forced the woman, who was 05 years of age, to give up her small hoard, which she kept In her room bacjt of the store. They then strangled her with the braid, but finding her slow In dying brained her with some blunt Instru ment. Her brains had oozed out upon the floor. There Is no clew.
