Thk Senatorial deadlock still con tinues at Harrisburg, and no result is looked for by the leaders short of two weeks, probably not until Quay's trial is disposed of. Thk friends of Gov. Roosevelt have entered him in the race for the Presi dency in 1000, Senators Lodge and Piatt are said to be backing the leader of the Rough Riders. Thk generals and admirals who fight in the Philippines, unlike the local Democratic statesmen, are lucky for the reason that there is never any row over distributing the credit.

Wanamaker, son of Hon. John Wanamaker, is the real purchaser of the Philadelphia North American. Heretofore the paper has been a strong Quay sup porter, but since the change in pro prietorship there is also noticeable a change in policy. The Inquirer is the only Philadelphia paper friendly to the junior Senator. THAT is a striking sentence in one of the President's speeches at Boston in which he says, referring more par ticularly to the Philippines : "We may regard the situation before us as a burden or an opportunity, but whether the one or the other, it is here, and conscience and civilization renuire us to meet it bravely." The words cover the vital bearing and tie mauds of the question. Thk "American Investor" has com piled a very useful table, more com plete than any yet published, which shows that the aggregate capital of various industrials or "trust" launched since January 1, 1808, has been $1,800,000,000. The men who have sold worn-out, antiquated or un profitable plants to the public at the figures represented by this vast total have been buying railroad shares and their demand has absorbed even European shipments.
