pawn twenty thousand dollars worth OF
perfect old mine brilliants for five thousand
dollars. There is great deal OF imposition

wild steers i'm the streets.

We do not know whether to visit the
greater share of censure ON the persons
who were responsible for the escape and
wandering away of the eleven Texan steers
which created so much terror in the upper
part of the city last Saturday forenoon or on
the uniformed and ununiform ed idiots who
did their best to set the animals crazy and to
risk heavy sacrifice of human life by
their folly. That no person was killed
seems q miracle, especially as three of the
steers were driven 10 stampede through
the streets and rendered as angry and rs
dangerous as terror could make them. If
q little caution and judgment had been ex-
ercised when the wandering herd was first
discovered it would have been compara-
lively easy task to drive them into some
vacant enclosed space, confine them there
and remove them ut leisure. Instead
of that, by means of hooting, yelling,
pistol firing and other experiments three
were from time to time induced to dash off
at full speed, creating a panic among the
people on the streets and doing consider
able damage, but fortunately confning
their fatal attacks to one or two horses One
of the escaped animals turned into vacant
lot at Eighty ninth street and avenue A,
when the police popped their revolvers ut
him until he was sufficiently maddened by
pain and rage to break away again and con-
tinue his dangerous flight.
The owners of the steers have not been
discovered. Probably they never will be.

on the walls of the Royal Palace, at Laeben

Bclgians have for the past few months,
been greatly excited over the parliamentary
discussions on the educational law which ex-
cludcs the clergy from the religious control in
elementary education, and the recent threat

such perilous exhibition possible. and
the police and the people ought to be eau
toned in the event of the appearance OF
stray steer in the streets not to turn HIM
into furious and dangerous wild animal
by yelling and hooting and firing random
pistol shots at him that only serve to put
him in pain and never succeed in killing

The WEATHER.-very little change has taken
place in the meteorological conditions through
out the territory east of the Rocky Mountains
except slight but general rise in pressure on
the Middle Atlantic and New England coasts.
The centre of lowest barometer continues to

and the upper lake regions. The pressure
within it, however, has increased some

IL will develop any serious energy dur

over the Gulf coast, and il is likely to continue

will take place. Rain fell in the Northwest,
central valleys and upper lake regions. There
were also some light showers experienced OH the
South Atlantic coast. Tho weather was fair or
clear in the other sections of the country. The
winds have been light in all the districts, except
in some sections of the lake regions, where they

the South Atlantic Gulf and central valley
districts, and rose in the West. The weather
over the British Islands is generally fine, but u

vicinity to-day will be warmer and fair, with

X TELEGEAM from Washington says that Senator Chaffee, Of Cobra do, proposes to introduce bill in congress to impose an ad valorcm duty ot two per cent. on silver but lion. He considers silver as nothing more than merchandise, and entitled to protection as much as any other ar tic!c on the dutiatle list. The object of the bill is to keep foreign silv, r from coming in and interfering with the product of our ova mines, and i'll that view of 1t We thInk the measure is to be commended. The secretary of the treasury has recently bought considerable silver bullion from Ger many, bullion owners of that country having made special contracts for the safe Of bullion at lower figures than the miners of Navada. Colorado or California can sell 1t. This. says the Stoc.. Report, is all wrong and oil be- half of the silver mining interests of the Pacific We call for protection. The Pennsylvania iron interest, the Massachusetts mill interest and all other interests are protected by a heavy tariff, why should net the sil- yer interest? As Senator Chatfec truthfully says, silver is after all only merchandise no matter how much we may remOnetizc it. Let Us therefore protect our producing interest against foreign competition by some such proposition as that the senator ad- Yances.
