know, orders are still coming in.
1t is by no means uncommon for news dealers
to make good deal of money by the sale of
papers containing some important piece of news.
August Brentano, the founder of the business
which bears his name, has often told me that he
made his first great success by ordering in ad
vance an enormous supply of English papers
containing the account Of the Heenan- Sayres
prize fight There was no cable in those days,
so it was through him that the public first
learned the details of the famous setto His
nephews, who now conduct the business, had the
foresight to order $50 copies of each number of
the genuine Pail Mall Gazette containing the
recent exposures, and are now selling them at 81
each. They have orders for nearly 200 more
than they supply.
The elder Bretano was for many years we'll
known figure in New York He began his career
here as newsboy, secured stand in front Of
the New York Hotel, afterwards moved into a
basement opposite, and then up to Union Square,
where his store became favorite resort for lit
erary men, actors, musicians and other celebri-
ties. About five years ago he determined to
retire from business and enjoy well-earned
rest; so he sold out to his three nephews, babe
farewell to his friends, and started on his travels
He was going to Canada, he sad and thence to
Europe-possibly further. He did not know
when he should return. He had worked hard a
great many years, and now he was going to have
a little play. The press duly recorded his re-
tirement from business. Distinguished men
stopped at the store to shake him by the hand
and wish him Godspeed He started for Mont
real, and for two weeks nothing heard of
him. Then, one fine morning, he walked into
the store climbed into his familiar perch by the
door, and asked to be allowed to act as cashier
without salary and to sell postage stamps He

irksome to him, and he remained at his desk

MINOR MENTION.
Treasurer JOrdans Efforts to Restore Conf
dence in Monetary Circles.


dence in Monetary Circles.
Special to the Indianapolis Journal
WASHINGTON, July 25.-Treasurer Jordan is
doing all he can to restore confidence in the
circles where there is inclination to drain the
Treasury Of its gold. He stated to-day that the
balance sheets of the money in vaults showed an
increase of the gold on hand, and that he did not
believe gold could be placed in such chancery by
any combination as would force it up to a pre-
MUM over other money. He believed that the
movement Of New York bankers had helped to
stimulate confidence and that the excitement
would blow over, leaving more gold on hand
than before.
Il think the peplo who have been boarding up
their gold for years" said Mr. Jordan, "expect-
ing to get premium on it sometime, are grow
ing very tired of such foolishness, and will
circulate it at the first opportunity. 1t is alb
sure to think that the government would permit
gold to suffer under premium during time of
peace and national prosperity"
1t has been intimated, however. that the
Treasurer would not regret seeing premium
On this precious metal, and that he is much
opposed to the dollar of the daddies."

large amount of excitement. At about o'clock

lightning rapidity, and was the grandest natural

its course up the river it upset boats and other
things that came III its way. 1t was about two
hundred feet in circumference and is the talk of
the town tonight Thus far have not learned
of any damage it created.

WASHINGTON, July 25.-Prof. Hllgard said to-
day, concerning his suspension from the superin-
tendency of the Coast Survey that he did not
care to have the matter settled by the newspa-
pers, nor to enter into public controversy
upon the subject but that it should be settled
in the department where it belongs. If his office
was wanted, he could stand dismissal without
murmuring; bat he objected to going out under
cloud with charges of irregularlty which had
no foundation. The books and records of his
Office he said, would speak for themselves and
he was willing TO abide by the result of their
thorough investigation.

ASieEr6En service at the White House.
Special to the indianapolis Journal.
WAsHINGToN, July 25.-Telegraph operators
and type writers would be interested in seeing
Ben Montgomery, the telegraph operator at the
White House, receiving the messages which
come there over the wires during these days,
when the thermometer is dallying around 1902
The telegraph service at the White House
is very heavy. and all the messages
are taken down on a typewriter Mr.
Montgomery says he has not written line of
message for weeks; that he takes them all down
on the type writer. Operators at the end of
the lines direct to the White House know
of his receiving on the type writer, and that he
is an expert manipulation of that machine, and
almost every day there is race between sender
and receiver. 1t is hardly necessary to say that
sender has not been found that could make
Montgomery 'break."

THE FUTURE OF THE sOUDAN.

The rumor that Gordon is still alive,
being kept in secret confinement by Ell
Mahdi after his recovery from severe
wounds, excites interest but receives no
credence. It directs attention to the
condition of the Soudan, however, and
to the predictions which have been made
as to its future. Gen. Lord Wolseley
declares not only that the retirement of
the British surrenders the country to the
darkest barbarism, but also that the
ultimate result of withdrawal will be an
attack Of the Soudanese upon Egypt.
"a terrible people" is the expression
used by Mr.. Gladstone to describe the
~Soudanese, and their fanatical ferocity
certainly makes them formidable, but
there is everywhere a feeling of regret
among the friends of civilization that
British authority is not to be maintained,
at least to the extent of regulating Sou
danese affairs in a general way and giving
support and protection to the best native
government ~obtainable. Perhaps the
completion OF the projected railway from
Suakim on the Red Sea to Berber on the
Nile may yet be determined, and the re-
suit of that enterprise would be great,
politically as well as commercially, con.
tributing much to the deliverance of both
the Soudan and Egypt from the malig-
nant Mohammedan power.

MIR. BLAINE's DEFEAT.

In response to "a Stalwart Of the Old
School," who contends that Mr.. Cleve-
land owes his election to "the Stalwart
Republicans, the New York Sun reopens
a discussion of the contributory causes
of Mr.. Blaine's defeat in the light shed
on them by the developments of the
seven intervening months. The scholas-
tic distinctions between the proximate
and remote causes are drawn acutely by
the erudite Sun, and it concludes
that the Stalwarts' contribution to
breaking the camel's that is to say,
Mr.. Blaine's "back belongs to the re.
mote category, and the popular impress
sion that "the performance of the Rev.
DIR. Burchard was the proximate cause
is a true one.
The Suns learned and logical argu.
ments, says the New York Herald. are
so likely to influence historians that we
think it should review this conclusion in
Justice to DIR. Burchard and take into
consideration Mr.. Blaine's own assign.
ment of the proximate cause of the break
ing of the camel's back. In an interview
ten days after the election he treated
DIR. Burchard's speech as a remote cause
only, and attributed his defeat prox-
imately to the shortness of the supply Of
gum shoes among the rural Republicans
in New York. "All agree" he said,
"that had the election day been fair my
majorities would have been increased by
from three to five thousand in the rural
counties" That would have elected him
in spite of both DIR. Burchard and the
S~talwarts.
