can slip out when his gambling scheme is

trade you advertise, you run great risk!
by putting on these airs and when you de

1t does not seem to make much differ

beguiled by the stock controllers, they are
always ready for a fresh beguilment. Mr..
Vanderbilt has often heretofore tested the
public gullibility, and he is doing it again
with marked success. For some time it
has been given out that he was negotiating
sale of his Pennsylvania railroad proper

An Old JuriSt Conc.

LYNCTBURG, VA, August 9.-Judge
James Garland, probably the oldest
Judge in the world, and, it is believed,
the oldest member of the Masonic fra
ternity in the United States, died at his
home in this city last night in the 95th
year of his age. Judge Garland was 4
native OF Albemarle county, Virginia.
He adopted the profession of the law
and was early in lis career conspicuous
for his great a.&.ily as an advocate, and
finally came to be the greatest prosecut-
ing attorney i'll Western Virginia. He
served as Il volunteer in the war of 1912
and was twice elected to Congress. He
was a warm friend of President jackson.
and made notable speech in defence of
the latter in the House, for which Jack
son thanked him in person and by letter.
He was prosecuting attorney OF Lynch
burg for nearly twenty years, and has
been altogether at the bar and on the
bench seventy-three years, having only
retired in 1888, when in his 92d year
and after he had become totally blind.
In his official life he never had but two
of his decisions reversed. He became a
Mason in 1912. He voted for James
Madison for president, and for every
nominee of the Democratic party since,
having gone to the polls in a carriage
last November and cast his ballot for
Cleveland and Hendricks. The bells of
the city are tolling to-day out of respect
for him.

The Washington correspondent of

did not need the statement of Speak
err Carlisle to settle the fact that
there will be no extra session of con-
gress for the purpose of considering
matters OF interest to trade and man
ufacturing. The movement in this
direction appears to have been con-
fined solely to labor circles in Pitts
bnrgh, and no one who has much
power in the premises seems to take
kindly to the suggestion. The Pres
i1eat, of course, would have to call

AS soon as the summer vacation is
over and business men of New
York return from the seaside and
mountains it is now definitely deter
mined that another organized effort
will be made to induce congress to
repeal the Bland silver bill. The
unanimous opinion of business men
is that the silver dollar must go.
Congressman d. r. James, of New
York, when asked his opinion as to
the repeal of the Bland law, said
"Unless the law is repealed at an
early day l predict overwhelming
financial disaster. Had not the New
York banks come to the assistance
of the secretary of the treasury it
would have already been precipita-
ted. The banks acted very honor
ably in the matter, as they should
have done, i'll the expection that
congress would come to the relief of
the government, and at an early day
repeal the law. Gold must newt
ably be at premium unless the law
is repealed, as have already said,
a. an cary day. Congress should
asislress itself to this matter as speed
il as possible after its organization
December. Unless the coinage of
standard silver dollar is speedily
,pped we shall be upon a mono
II sailic basis, and that basis will be
81 HI ! Doubt if bill simply To
repeal the Bland law can pass the
house, but bill containing clauses
like those put into the bill for retir-
ing the trade dollar when the bill
was before the senate finance com
mittee might be worked through
the house"

he New York Herald expresses
the opinion that while the west off
ers many inducements to immi-
grants, the time is at hand when a
part Of the vast inflowing tide Of
settlers should be turned towards
the south. But it very truthfully
says eff the south expects to reap
the benefits of immigration 1t must
make it's advantages known. The
continent of Europe is being can
vassed by agents who, as a matter
of-proftable speculation, dilate elo-
quently upon the opportunities
which are hanging from western
trees like over ripe pears, ready to
be picked. The south does almost
nothing of the kind. And yet there
is no portion of this country where
an industrious, thrifty, wideawake
man has such chance to better his
fortunes as in the south. Why do
not our neighbors wake up to the
exigencies of the occasion and get
their share of the people who are
tired of doing nothing in Europe
and hope to be something in Amer

jim KEENE's DOWNFALL.

1t seems that Jim Keene's latest attempts
to recover himself and his declining for.
tunes were failures. He has dropped COM
pletely out of the financial world, and has
no more influence in Wall street than the
commonest class Of curb stone brokers.
The study of his somewhat brilliant career
would be quite advantageous to a large
class of "high-dyers," a new crop of
which seems TO be continually coming
on. Wall Street attracts them from all
portions of the United States, and occa-
sionally from foreign lsnds-sttracts them
long enough TO SINCE their wings, and
finally burn them to the death. Keene
went to New York with s.. 00O,0O in his
pockets. and az one time was woreh nearly
$l5,000,000. This made him bold. A spe-
cial correspondent gives his Wall street
history in nut shell. 1t is instructive to
young adventurers in the same line. The
correspondent says: 1.-THE riff-raff, and the
hangers on, and the adventures OF the street
fastened on to- him, battered him, told him
his mission in life and his duty toward man
kind was to break Jay Could aud offered
their advice aud influence. Keene made
money fast as long as prices advanced. He
bought with great freedom and courage, and
his name was in everyone's mouth. But
when the tide turned Keene was loaded.
he did not have the sagacIty and csler-
ity of Gould, who has q knack of
turning even misfortune to good &C
count, but kept on getting in deeper
and deeper until the inevitable raped at
his door and he found he had lost all.
Keene's error seems to have been the error
common to beginners in Wall street. He
wanted to trade all the time. The cool
headed operator waits until the market suits
him, Three or four times every year all
hands in the street agree that stocks are
very low. There has been a furry, and
prices have gone down 10 or 20 per cent:
they are sure to react within compare
lively short time. Then it is that the pru-
dent man comes to the front with bis cash.
But the man who goes down into the street
everyday and buys or sells for short turn
feels as though he must do something every
day, and that kind of trading never fails to
wreck the longest purse. Keene was
always in the market, and he was
always buying. The sharp set OF fellows
who manipulated Denver and Rio
Grsnde up to 10 or Whereabouts, sold great
lot of stock to Keene, and he was compelled
to take more to hold the uprise against their
raids when they had sold it short. He never
was cunning enough to conceal his opera
tons, and the sharks from the street marked
him from the first. He was indiscreet
enough to quarrel with Jay Gould and to
threaten him, and Gould thereafter did not
count him as a friend. 1t is very much
better for young Wall street man to have
Gould's friendship than his enmity. And
so Keene houndered until his money was
gone"
The men who succeed in Wall street are
very few. Keene's history may be read with
profit It is the history OF hundreds.

the panic produced by the recent outrsges

right into the hands of the dynamiters.
Some firms in London, others in Leeds and
Others again in Sheffield were dismissing ali
their Irish employees, it being fact that detec.
tiyes were employed to watch establishments
wherein large number OF persons Of Irish
birth we're employed, proved so irritating TO
the owners of the concerns subjected to such
dlsagreeable espionage, that TO escape from
1t they naturally resorted to the only means
of relief at their command, the wholesale
discharge OF their Irish employees. One of
the largest publishing houses in London, on
Saturday last dismissed every person of
Irish birth. At the conclusion of Poland's
address, DR.. Dupre advisor of Govern ment
on chemical subjects took the witness stand.
he testified he had examined detonster
found in Cunningham's baggage. 1t was a
copper tube, stamped with an eagle, and
contained eleven and bali grains of a mix
ture composed OF chloride of potassium and
illuminate OF mercury. A fuse had sppar-
emily been fixed to the detonater, as bole
in the tube indicated some such attachment.
Previous to the remanding of the prisoner,
in answer to a request for a privilege of an
interview with Cunningham, made by
Quilliam, one of the counsel for the defense.
Judge IDgham replied nobody would be
allowed TO see or converse with the prisoner
without a special permit from Sir William
Vernon Harcourt, the Home Secretary.
By the time the examination was con-
cluded the crowd that pressed around the
building numbered many thousands. The
adjoining housetops ald every window in
the neighborhood were crowded with peo-
pie curious to catch glimpse of Cunning
ham. During the progress OF the van which
conveyed the prisoner back to Clerkenwell
Prison, the streets along the route were lined
with files of special police and fairly warmed
with dett ctiyes.
