The managers claim that as the law pro-

money should go direct TO tho pensioners.

CRY OF MExIco, August 1.-THE State
Of Vera Cruzis in very revolutionary con.
dition. Government troops are rapidly
concentrating in Vera Cruz. The Spanish
elementi is accused OF instigating disorders,
tho cause Of their dissatisfaction being the
laws against smuggling. A prominent Fed
cral Senator was preparing on the night OF
June ed to go 10 Vera Cruz with the in.
tention Of taking part in an uprising, when
he was summoned before President Diaz,
who warned the Senator that he knew all
the plans of the revoluiionists, and advised
him to remain in the Capital. The latter
remained, and is now the faithful friend Of
the President.
It is alleged that Dias Is having the bill
ot impeachment prepared against Senior
Vallarte, President OF the Supreme Court
and Vice President OF the Republic. Senior
Nallarte according to the present law will
hold his Office for two years. After the
expiration OF the present Presidential
term his impeachment would favor the
candidacy oil Justo Benitez. The MAORI.
ty OF the Cabinet has resolved that the
constitutional amendment against the re.
election Of the President should be re-
pealed in order to save the country from
anarchy. The movement for the repeal
otthls amendment has already been made
In the Legislature OF Michouchan, Pue.

that the Cabinet is paving the road to die

factory 10 feel that his retirement Is not in
any way due to any difficulty arising here
or In America. The only topic Of contro.
yersy which has arisen during Welsh's
mission Is the claim Of the United States
relative TO the British and North Ameri.
can fisheries. Welsh has brought one
phase Of difficulty TO q critical point BY
last week depositing the demand for Sl03,.
600 damages for the Fortune Bay outrage.
This Is trivial, thovgh II Is satisfactory TO
observe the better tone In which such con.
troversies are treated BY both countries.
The point Is technical one and may be
discussed without heat on either side, as
also the larger question Of the policy in.
volved in the proposal to abrogate the ex.
isting arrangements as to fisheries.
Though these negotiations excite no
strong feeling here or in America, they
must necessarily be carried on by diplo-
mast OF the highest rank. The government
at Washington will also doubtless an.
preciate the importance Of selecting q
representative who may be able TO state
the American view relative TO bi.metalism
with clearness Of force, and carry the con.
yiction, If possible, TO our now incredu.
lous economists.
THE FISHERIES QUESTION.
In special review Of the fisheries uues.
tion the Times says: The desirability OF
having this long standing dispute between
England and the United States settled is as
great now as in 1877. The entente between
them has been perceptibly strengthened
since the Treaty of Washington, and It Is
only to be regretted that the treaty did not
settle the fisheries question as eiIeCtually
as II did the San Juan boundary and the
Alabama claims. Weowe it to our Ameri.
can colonies that the question OF money
value in respect 10 the inshore fisheries
should not be lightly reopened, and indeed
according to precedent already conceded
1t will rest with their parliaments to say
whether a renewal OF the lease on any
terms is to be granted. But there is no
reason to believe that an International
Convention on the subject would meet
with serious objection either on the part
Of the Imperial or Colonial governments,
provided the question was dealt with on It's
entirety and not merely revision OF the
recent arbitration at Halifax alfamnIaJ

Uur whole community was shocked and
ii.,,c,sed Yesterday to learn OF the death
n John i. Hubbard, Of this city, in
II,mpshire county, where he had gone on
,G.biprexcurson withsome OF his friends
a few DAYS ago. Prior to his departure

hard had been laboring under great de.
,rcssion Of mind, SO much so as to show
decided symptoms Of alteration, and it
Nh, to divert and relieve this aiIiiCtion
that his friend, had induced him to go on
,be excursion. Alas, however, his all
ment proved too serious for diversion-so
serious ,ha. in moment Of frenzy he was
prompted to put an end to his lie, which
lie lid by shooting himself through the
brain with a pistol.
such tragedy was wholly out Of keep

So man in our midst led a more unexCep-
tonabl4 life. Hewas a good citizen and a
Good man in all the relations oflife. This
community could not afford to lose such q
man, and everybody deplores his untimely
death. His popularity was shown by his
extraordinarily large vote in this county
when candidate for Congress last year.
Al the time Of his nomination we
took occasion to make the following
remarks about him: "Mr. Hubbard is one
6i that rare and excellent class Of men
who can say with shakespeare's shepherd,
Sir | am a true laborer: l earn what !
wear: owe no man hate: envy no mans
happiness: glad with other mems good:
content with my fare" We remarked
further, "if this can be said OF any man
in West Virginia, it can be said Of John
L. Hubbard. For good and sterling
qualities Of manhood he has so superior
in thisor any other community"
All Of this we felt could be truly said Of
Mr.. Hubbard in his life time, and now in
the hour of his death we repeat it all and
more. lie was an intimate visitor at this
office, and had been for many years, and
We knew him well and thoroughly. AS

and honorable man, we say that no bet

The Present Condition OF the New York
Money Market.

The Present Condition OF the New York
Money Market.
CIneInultl Commercial Of yesterday.
The striugency is attributed to various
causes, among which may be enumerated:
The rapid development Of business, call.
ing for larger sums Of money than have
been employed,
The increase Of the currency balance in
the Treasury during the first half Of the
month Of August was eleven millions-a
small SUM, however, compared with what
it would lave been II the banks had been
called upon for the total sum in cash in
vested in four per cents on speculation.
|, Abundant reason for tha pressure may
be discovered in the coincidence OF the
call by the Government for settlements,
and the call for money 10 move the enor-
nous crops.
7 1t is expected that the Treasury will put
out about fifteen millions OF the currency
now locked up, that the movement Of the
crops will bring gold largely from Europe,
and that there will be q call from Europe
for four per ceilt bonds.
In other words, the tightness OF the
money market is temporary. However, it
is not expected, as business booms, that
money will continue to be as cheap as it
has been.
The resumption policy is perfectly safe.
The great money managers and sAarpers
and gamblers could corner gold alone, but
with twenty millions OF standard silver
dollars az. q reserve to oYerwhelm them,
cornering operations are hopeless.
And after all, We have free banking. II
currency is strongly demanded, it will be
profitable, and the, National banks will
buy The bonds, cheapened by the strin.
gency, and put out currency. This shows
the adaptability or elasticity Of the money
system under which We are working,

them would gladly return to their homes
II they could obtain free transportation or
were given money TO get tickets. About
nan dozen o. the party remained in Kan
sas with relatives, but they brought back
more than that number, and could have
brought hundreds OF others il thew
had had the room to accommodate
them on the train. Mr.. Hubbard thinks
the trips the means Of stopping the exodus
from the South for a time at least; for
many OF the colored men with the party
are men OF influence in their localities.
and he is satisfied that their accounts al
Kansas and the condition OF the Colored
people now there, will deter others from
leaving the South.
Interviews with number of colored
men and several whites OF the party,
elected about the same general opinion:
mat while Kansas is splendid country il
would be foolish for agriculturalists 10 90
there unless they were provided with
money, or other means TO support them
selves the same as white emigfants, Able
bodied men could probably obtain
employment as laborers on farms or in
clues and do well, but oldo feeble people
could mud nothing to do. There is also n
strong belief that colored people cannot
stand the rigors Of the Kansas winter and
the sudden Changeso Of weather which occur
in that State. The weight OF the testi.
mony is decidedly against the emigration
