It is clear that The London Times misunder-
stands public sentiment here, when it assumes
that Secretary Fish's overtures to the European
Governments imply the abandonment OF the
Monroe doctrine by the American people. Mr..
Monroe held that any attempt on the part OF
European nations to extend their system to
"any portion of this hemisphere" would be re-
garded by the United States las dangerous to
"our peace and safety" and would accordingly
be opposed. The national policy thus ex-
pounded continues in force, and is not essen
italy changed by Mr.. Fish's negotiations.

A bill has been introduced at Albany to prohibit
speculation in theater tickets. Such bill can only
be useful to show how little legislators know about
the principles of legislation The practice at which
it is aimed is merely au annoyance. not an immor-
atty nor ali injury to the pub c and petty annoy
ances not proper subjects for legislative eoree-
ton The only way TO deal with ticket specu-
Iators is to refuse to buy of them. Admission to
a theater is not one of the necessaries of life
nor always. alas! one of the luxuries-and
If the keeper refuses to sell ticket at the adj
vertsed price. why should We not refuse to buy at
all. and go to some rival establishment OF stay at
homef If a majority of those who frequent the
theater wished to abolish speculation in tickets they
could do so in week by merely buttoning up their
pockets. But We can more fix the price of tickets
by statute than We can fix the price OF wheat

report which has gained currency within
few days past that Mr.. f.. Z. Smith, late Commits
sioner of Indian Affairs, had been arrested in New
York and taken to Washington to testify before the
Committee on Indian Affairs concerning the man
agement of the department of which he was the
superintendent, is authoritatively denied. Mr..
Smith was not arrested, but returned TO Washing
ton of his own accord, though at the request OF the
Committee. 1t seems quite proper, under tho cir
cunstances, that Mr. smiths departure for Africa
should be postponed for little while, or until he
has given the Committee the information OF which
they are in search, and which he alone can furnish.
IL need not be remembered 10 his prejudice that
another Mr.. Smith, who officer Of the Young
Mems Christian Association, and likewise of the In
terror Department. went away at time when his
testimony was needed by an investigating commit
tee; but the coincidence such as to warrant the
Committee in sending the gentleman q reminder
that his testimony was wanted before he started for
Africa. He is doubtless aware that suspicion has
attached the administration of Indian affairs and
this opportunity to clear it up should be welcomed
with satisfaction.

Few bankruptcies in this country have pro-
yoked wider discussion than that of Duncan,
Sherman g. Co., the chief questions debated
being as to whether the firm was knowingly
insolyent long before its suspension, and

was fair to the people who dealt with the firm
In the belief that it owned large property.

A Singular Suicide.

From me PdH MQH Gd~tHe.J
In the annals of suicide few cases an
more remarkable than one which oc-
CURED few days ago at Nitshlll, in
Scotland, where miner named Duncan
deliberately blew himself up with dyna-
mite. 1t seems that the unfortunate
man, who was about fifty years of age,
was much distressed at some remarks
made about him by bis neighbors. On
Monday afternoon be was seen coming
out of his house with a parcel 10 his
hand, described as being of about the
size of two pound LOAF, and to which
was attached two pieces of colliers'
''strum" or match. This parcel con-
tanned dynamite. Having procured a
match from the house of neighbor, to
whom he remarked that "they had
said great deal Of him lately, but he
would put it past them now" Duncan
went out into the street, and putting
the parcel down on the ground leaned
well over it. He then lighted the
"strum" with the match. At this mo-
ment some boys, attracted by his un-
usual attitude, came towards him.
Keep back" shouted Duncan, "for
the love of God or you will be blown
into eternity" Thus adjured the boys
did keep back, and it was we'll for them
that they did so, for moment later
there wos loud explosion which start
led the whole village, and Duncan was
instantaneously blown to atoms. On
the spot where the dynamite had been
laid there was left hole about 3 feet
deep by about - vide.
