Manufactories Prospered in 1899.
In a bulletin sent out by Labor Com-
missioner Cox on the 10th on the in-
dustrial conditions in this statfc< it
is stated that at no time in its
history has Michigan enjoyed the same
general condition of prosperity as it
did in 1899. Manufactories are said to
have been run to their full capacity,
laborers and skilled mechanics have
been employed at fair and improved
wages, the real estate business has im-
proved, lake traffic has been heavy, and
the mineral deposits have been devel-
oped to a wonderful degree. The aver-
age daily wages in factories have in-
creased from §1.37 per day in 1888 to
§1.39 in 1899. In the canvass of nearly
5,000 factories it was determined that
545 of them have increased their actual
capital §6,531,884. In 1.382 factories
of those canvassed there were found to
be employed a total of 24,262 more em-
ployes than in 1898. It is estimated
that 74 factories are able to pay their
employes weekly, IS per cent monthly,
and 1 i per cent semi-monthly. Seventy-
four per cent of these factories report
an increase of business over 1898.
Someone was Jiegligent.
A sensation developed in the circuit
court at Port Huron on the 9th at the
trial of a §2,000 damage suit brought
by Wm. B. Johnson against John C.
Hamilton, a saloonist. and C. Bern and
Joseph Casselo. his bondsmen, for the
year of 1897, for the alleged selling of
liquor to his minor son, causing him to
become intoxicated. When the bond
was produced in evidence it developed
that instead of being made out in the
penal sum of §4,000, as provided by the
city charter, it was in the sum of only
§4. The amount was plainly written
in the body of the bond, while in the
justification the sureties simply justi-
fied to "the amount of the bond." The
introduction of oral testimony to show
that the bond was intended to be for
§4,000, and that the error was simply a
clerical omission, was objected to as
inadmissable and ruled out by Judge
Atkinson, upon legal grounds.
Another Granil .Jury in Sight.
Although there have been no direct
assurances from thsit gentleman him-
self. it is generally believed at Lansing
thsit Judge Wiest. who succeeded Judge
Person, will soon call another grand
jury to investigate alleged crookedness
in the legislature. It is believed that
the jury will be called in March. The
methods by which the MeLeod bill was
passed and the use of liquor in the leg-
islature will be among the subjects to
be investigated. It is not improbable
that if the grand jury is again called
that other expenditures of public money
will be thoroughly investigated.
Milan's Scliool Destroyed by Fire.
Milan's public school was destroyed
by fire on the 10th. At the time the

and Miss Clara Eages, preceptress,
saved her life by jumping from a win-
dow. Great prsiise is given Prof. Car-
rick for his presence of mind in the
hour of danger, sis it was through his
efforts that all but the above persons
escaped in safety. All the pupils lost
their wraps and books. The fire is
supposed to have caught from the fur-
nace.
Favor Municipal Ownership.
The village council of Homer has
manifested its approvsil of municipal
ownership of the electric lighting plant
by appointing si special committee to
confer with the present owners of the
plant for the purchase of the same.
The plaut which is operated by wrater
power, is a new one, having been put
into commission January 1 011 a 10-year
contract, with the provision that the
village might buy the plant at any
time at its actual value.

vices, making a total of 13 cases to

ton Harbor. He had gained entrance

ing that he might get 90 days in jail,

trouble of hustling - board and lodg-
ings during the winter. ' His guess was
away off. however, and he has gotten
more than he bargained for. The judge
looked upon it as burglary and gave
him two years in the state house of
correction.
The F. & P. M. are talking of build-
ing a tunnel under the St. Clair river

TRANSVAAL WAR ITEMS.
The plight of British arias in South
Africa is overshadowed for the present
by the storm which is bursting over
the head of the home government.
The Manchester speeches of Mr. Bal-
four. the government leader in the
house of commons, has loosened such a
torrent of comment from the press and
individuals of his own party that were
parliament to re-assemble today it is
doubtful if the conservatives would re-
tain power in spite of their tremendous
majority of the past session. The pent-
up dissatisfaction with the govern-
ment's lack of energy in waging the
war is no longer concealed.
Gen. White still holds out, or did so
on the 6th when the Boers, ousted
from their foothold inside the works,
suspended their assault at nightfall.
England has taken heart. The situa-
tion, however, is worse. The beleag-
ured force must have expended large
amounts of ammunition, which cannot
be replenished and must have lost a
number of officers and men, which is
counterbalanced, so far as the garrison
is concerned, by the greater loss of the
Boers. It is also reported that Gen.
\\ hite is in need of relief and is short
of ammunition.
A report from Col. Pileher of the
British forces says that on Jan. 1 he
completely defeated the Boers in com
mand at Sunnyside laagar, taking the
laager and capturing 40 prisoners, with
a loss of only two privates killed and
one lieutenant wounded. *
The guns which were captured from
Gen. Buller at Colenso have been
mounted in the hills commaning the
drift over the Tugela river" at Spring-
field. The Boers also captured 620
rounds of shrapnel when they took the
guns.
The executive committee of the In-
ternationsil Peace society recently sent
a telegram to President McKinley ask-
ing him to intervene with a view of
ending the war in South Africa.
Gen. Lord Roberts, the new com-
mander of the British forces in South
Africa, sind his chief of staff, Gen.
Lord Kitchener, arrived at Cape Town
on the 10th.
Boers accuse the British of misusing
the white flag, bearers of it taking
part in fighting and a train Carrying it
aiding in bridge repairing.
Wernher, Beit & Co., diamond mer-
chants, have donated §250,000 to the
fund for the equipment of the British
yeomanry
CONGRESSIONAL NOTES.
There exists a serious difference of
opinion betw.een the members of the
commerce committee of thcv*,~;ro houses
on the shipping subsidy bill. As this
bill was offered in last congress the
premiums were lsirgely for speed. This
mesins thsit the chief benefits would ac-
crue to the swift passenger carriers
and the high class freighters. Newly
constructed Atlantic liners would re-
ceive the gresitest sums becsiuse they
naturally will be the speediest and
largest vessels. There are a large
number of senators and representa-
tives who think this is wrong in prin-
ciple. They say that the greatest ben-
efits should go to the coarse freight
carriers. These dissenters from the
plan of the original bills say that the
premiums should favor tonnage rather
than speed. These objections first
came from the men who are interested
in building up the commerce of the
Pacific.
Rep. Weeks, of "Michigan, has intro-
duced a joint resolution reciting the
unsettled status of the people in the
islands acquired from Spain, and pro-
viding that for five years the President,
as commander-in-chief of the army and
navy shall continue military authority
in said islands, and that congress shall
deal with the subject at the expiration
of the five-year period. In the mean-
time, it is provided that reciprocity re-
ductions not exceeding 25 per cent may
be made on the products of the islands
brought to this country.
The house and senate on the 10th
paid beautiful and impressive tributes
to the memory of the late Vice-Presi-
dent Hobart.

At the cabinet meeting on the 9th
the subject of the alleged corner in
hemp was discussed in connection with
the numerous requests which have
been received to open a number of
ports in the Philippines for the expor-
tation of hemp to the United States.
Secretary Wilson said he had received
a laro-e number of letters on the sub-
ject. some favoring and others protest-
ing sigainst opening the ports for the
purpose stated. It seems to be the set-
tled policy of the government to open
all of the Philippine ports as rapidly
as troops can be spared to garrison
them.
