a FEARFUL PANIC took place in the
church of st. Francis Xavier. New
York City, OH Friday evening last.
The Rev.Lopgcake was preaching upon
Hell and the Horrors of the Damn
ed" aud picturing the torments Of
Purgatory in such fearful phrases, that
a women in the gallery shrieked wildly
and tainted. The congregation ross
appalled,; and just then some one cried
fire, which completed the demoralIza-
tion. The priests implored the peo-
pie to be seated and assured them
there was no fire, and comparative
quiet was restored except in tine gal
lery. where the excited people rushed
for the stairway. This was soon crowd
ed, and in the rush seven persons were
trampled to death. A somewhat sim
liar alarm was caused in a church in
the suburbs, on the same evening and
durirg the panic four women were
badly injured.

The COMMISSION appointed to re
port upon the gold and silver question
has reported. The substance OF the
majority report is that the change in
the relative value of gold and silver
was not caused by over production,
the proportion being below that oi
1S4s, The change, the Commission
maintains, was produced by the de
monitization of silver in Germany, the
United States and other countries,
which closed the mints against that
metal. This, with a decrease in the
Asiatic demand, and greatly exaggera
ted an:icipa ions of the Nevada yield,
were among the causes leading to the
depressed value of silver. The Asiatic
demand has resumed, and the adop-
ton of q double standard in this coun-
try, the commission believes will rrm
edy the evil; they therefore recon-
mend the restoration of silver aud its
unrestricted coinage along with
that of gold, but do not advise liz re
gard to the best legal relation between
the coins. They believe that paper
currency may be retained, If it is made
equal in vflue with coin, and convert
bic into il, which latter can only result
fron resumption. That resumption
under existing laws is impracticable.
because the law of 1873, unrepealed,
gives but one standard, gold; and as
Germany and other countries have de
montiZed silver, and still Others may
attempt it, the attempt at resumption
is certain to prove runious because of
the limited supply of gold. That the
double standard would afford reasona
bic prospect of success, 10y enabling us
TO utilize both precious metals. The
report concludes with the argument.
''If the nations on the continent of
Europe had double standard, a gold
standard would be possible here, be
cause in that condition they would
'reely e1chan- gold for silver. 1t was
hat condition which enabled England
o resume special payments in 1921. To
propose TO this country contest for a
old standard with European nations
5 to propose TO it a disastrous race,
educing the price of commodities and |
ggravatiDg the burden of debts in
which all contestants will suffer i'm
and the victors even more
ban the vanquished."
