Doesn't .See "Way Roosevelt Harps on
the Ice Trust.
NEW YORK, Sept. 30. The World will
gey tomorrow!
Mayor Van Wyck's answer to the
charges of violating the law by investing
In the securities of; the American Ice
Company will be in the hands of Attorney-General
Davies at Albany today Attorney-General
Davies will not take any
action on the Mayor's answer until Gov
ernor Roosevelt returns.
Richard Croker today devoted some
time to reading the telegraphic accounts
of the speech Governor Roosevelt made
last night at Kansas City, in which the
Governor attacked the New York ice
trust and mentioned Mr. Croker and other
New York City citizens by name as in
terested in it. After reading the speech,
Mr. Croker said:
"They must be very hard-pressed, in
deed, for something to talk about, when
jthey attempt to make me or my connec
tion with the ice trust an issue. I bought
stock in the American Ice Company for
the same reason that I have bought other
stocks because I thought it a good in
vestment. I have been buying and selling
stocks for years, and expect to continue
doing so, and why does Governor Roose
velt make me and others who are inter
ested in the trust the target? Why don't
he attack th$ Republicans who are in
terested In the trust? The officers of the
trust and many of the stockholders are
Republicans and personal friends of
Roosevelt. In fact, they are the very men
who were responsible for the nomination
and election of Roosevelt as Governor
and his nomination as Vice-President.
Why don't he attack his friends, who
created and maintain the ice trust, and
who alone are responsible for the ad
vance in the price? Why does ho harp
on the ice trust, anyhow? As Mr. Bryan
says, the ice trust is purely a local af
fair, and is not a National issue at all.
The Democrats are engaged in a bitter
and relentless -warfare against all trusts,
but It seems that Roosevelt can see no
harm in any save the Ice trust."

talking about when I said that Bryan had
promlsed..Cxk?r the naming of one of
the Cab&wfe Officers. I know that Bryan

"I was with the skirmish line within
.50 yards of General' Lawton, and we saw
a man In black trousers shooting con
spicuously among the white uniforms of
the insurgent officers coming out on the
tower of the church. He surveyed the
ground on which we stood very carefully,
thenraised his musket and fired. At that
instant General Lawton, who was dis

as if 10 brush away an insect and sank
to his knees.
"We found in the church about 103
yards of telegraph tape, which Interpreted

, ESTIMATES FOR'THE $AVY.
For Increase About J20,000,G)0 WJH
Bo Asked of Congress. . '
WASHINGTON, Sept 30. In anticipa
tion of the assembling of Congress two
months hence, October 1 has ljeen afet
a's the time for receiving the annual re
ports from the naval bureau chiefs out
lining the nayal work to be done, dur'ng
tiie coming year. Most of the estimates
are riow completed and In the hands
of Secretary Long, and the more detailed
reports will go In within the next few
days. Until they have been gone, over
by -thefSecreiary,,no authentic derails are
available.. In the main, .however, they
are Tund,eratood to involve little in the
way of extensive or' new projects- and
to cover only the usual requisites pf the
service for the year. The- chief Item, as
usual, is that for "the increase of the
Navy,"' povqrlng both " construction and
engineering work on ships already au
thorized. This will bo in the neighbor
hood of ?20,000,COO. In the branch of
yards and docks, it is understood the
total .will bo not far from $13,000,000, and
will not involve any additional drydocks
or extensive changes in our naval sta
tions. In addition to the foregoing item
for increase of the Navy there is the
usual sun for repair of vessels , already
in service, which' is a considerable sum,
amounting this year to , approximately
$7,000,O0pVu In the branch of steam en
gineering the estimates do not go beyond
the requirements for carrying forward
the regular service. The item of armor
and armament is of 'special Interest, in
view of the controversy over armor, but
the fifture course regarding this probably
will depend considerably' on the result
of "the present efforts o get armor with
in the rate fixed by the last Congress.

AN EASY "tfEEK BERLIN
J , "' - v
SMOOTHEST i MOKTHLY SETTLE-
.,,;, "ab-NTS JFOJa years,'
Trading: In Stocks, However, Was in
r , Favor of the Bears Rise in.
Industrials.
BERLIN, Sept. 30. The most striking
feature of the Bourse last week was the
smoothness of the monthly -settlement
Not for years -had Berlin seen such an
easy September settlement. Yesterday
private,-discount fell , which la very un
usual at the end of September. The mar
ket' expects the Belchsbank to be able to
meet, all money demands for the next
20 days without raising the rate, which
also Is something of a. phenomenon, not
having- occurred before for five years.
The Bourse 'was somewhat more agi
tated 'than usual during- the- week. A
sharp rise In Industrials occurred Wed
nesday owing to the scarcity of shares
for the carry over. This was not main
tained, however, -and the week-closed with
this department 'of the market showing
.a deallne. - - - ...
Generally speaking, the trading was de
cidedly in favor of the. bears. Imperral
and Prussian funds suffered severely
through the announcement that Hamburg
had decided 'to raise a loan of 40,000,000
marks, choosing the 4 per cent type. A
similar depressing Influence was exerted
by the Intimation that the Saxon Gov
ernment contemplates a new loan at a
higher Interest than the old' 3 per cent
The week's decline In Imperial 3s was 90
pfennigs, and in Prussian 3s 100.
' The first quotation oh the Berlin Bourse
of the New York German loan was 100.
- There were heavy -private arid public
sales of iron and coal shares during the
week, owing to unfavorable reports' from
the Iron centers. Bank notes suffered se
verely from a bear attack, the bears argu
ing that the banks are overloaded with
Industrials now heavily depreciated and
unsalable. It Is -also pointed out that the
refusal of the" provlncha.l"bankers to "use
the Bourse register, which occufred fro.
quently during the week, ihust reduce the
business of the great banks.
The decline In Canadian Pacific and
Northern Pacific was followed at the end
of the week by a strong recovery, the
market being reassured by the ready ab
sorption at New York, of the German
offerings. '
The .Dortmund Union Iron Works
have reconsidered .the recent de
cision to Issue new shares to
the amount of 10,000,000 marks..
Debentures to the amount of 6,000,000
marks will be issued Instead and the
financial press expects the1 5 per cent
type. In the Salgen department the pig
Iron syndicate has been renewed for two
years. Germany's pig Iron production. for
