So many wild and untrustworthy
estimates of the wealth Of our New
York millionaires have been given cur
rency by the imaginative correspond
ents OF out-of-town newspapers that
the following figures, said Town Topics,
to have been furnished by O well-known
broker, will be read with interest.
There are aearly $3.50, ,000, 900 distribut-
ed among a handful Of Capitalists. as
follows: u. Astor, Sl25, ,000, 900, Jay

Newcombe, 81 ,O00, 900, and Sam Sloan,
81 ,000, 900. This is a considerable par
ing down of the seemingly fabulous
amounts hitherto credited to some oi
the individuals mentioned by common
report, and it is probably nearer the
truth than so per cent of the estimates
made by outsiders. Other, cities than
New York, however, and notably
Chicago and San Francisco. can make
an imposing show of Cresuses. One OF
the richest men in the moneyed circle
is David Davis, whose vast fortune
came to him by the merest chance.
For services in law suit he was obIig-
ed to accept as payment 80 acres OF
waste land in Illinois, and these acres
now lie in the very heart of Chicago
There are among these vast fortunes in
stances where the accumulation does
not represent the expenditure of any

have simply had to wait in order to see
their property appreciate through the
application of productive forces around

Increasing Parcel Postage.

Hon. James F. Wilson of Iowa, has
introduced In the Senate a bill doubling
the rate of postage on fogrth-class mat
ter. The present rate is sixteen cents a
pound, and the increase will make IL
about the same as letter postage. The
object Of the move, apparently, is to dis
courage, In heinterest of express com
panies. the sending Of small parcels
through the mails. II the bill intro
duced by Mr.. Wilson becomes q law, it
would impose very heavy tax upon q
large number Of people who are now ac-
customed TO order goods by mail, and it
will work y special hardship to people
who live insmall villages where express
offices are not maintained. We have
not seen the arguments that are de-
pended ON to justify the measure. but
on its face it appears to be one against
the public interests, and designed sole
ly to benefit wealthy corporations.
The Present rate charged on fourth
class matter in the United States is
much higher than Of other countries.
In England the rate on a parcel not ex-
ceeding one pound is six cents, while
a parcel weighing between five and
seven pounds can be sent for twenty
five cents. In Canada the rate on seeds,
plants and samples sent by mail is four
cents, and, queerly enough, the United
States, which now charge sixteen cents
for such service, carry these Canadian
parcels with extra charge from points
in eastern Canada to the northwestern
British provinces. That is to say, such
a package could be sent from Montreal,

ANOTHER GUsHER
Added tothe Oil-Find at Mma-Good
100 Barrels q Day.

LIMA, o., Feb. 2S.-Another gusher
oil well was struck here this afternoon
at the Reiehelderfer, which was put
down by the Lima Oil and Gas COM
pany. The oil rock was struck last
evening, and owing to the amount Of
gas which escaped work was suspended
until this morning. After penetrating
the rock for sixteen feet the drill was
withdrawn. AS 1t neared the mouth of
the well the oil which was following 1t
forced itself up and spurted from the
well 10 the height of fabout four feet,
until the drill was entirely out, when,
by magnificent spurt, solid stream
of oil six inches In diameter reached
the top of the derrick, lasting several
minutes. 1t has flowed at intervals all
the afternoon. Itisgood for 100 barrels
a day. This is the third flowing well
tlat has been struck here within the
past two weeks. Twenty-four derricks
are awaiting machinery. The Lima
oil field is the biggest developed field In
Western Ohio. The oil from the new
well is lighter and resembles the Penn
sylvania oil more than any yet found
here.

IFrom the Lagrange pemocrat.I

The workingnlen of this country, and
the men who are seeking to gain a
home In the West, again have an ad-
ditional assurance that the Democratic
party and administration means to
stand by them and give them all a
chance. The monopOlist must learn to
take care Of himself. A great effort
will be made to get u bill through Con-
gress, to give a. workingnan who has
occupied piece of government land
and can n oath affirm that he has less
than $500, a loan of $500 with which to
improve his land 500 each year.
Upon this question the Indianapolis
Sentinel very forcibly speaks:
The people of this country could
make no better Investment than +. pass
this bill, even If fit were to give it out
right, only providing means to prevent
imposition. But along with its passage
some restriction should be made to imi-
grafton, 30 that paupeFs from abrtasl
would be excluded. "A tax Of 500 per
head would exclude all the undesirable
elements from abroad. and those who
would have 50 little means as to come
within the provisions of this act. Per
haps this aid TO enable the workingnlan
to yet out of the 0yerburdened cities,
and from being q source of poverty,
crime and danger to society become
respectable producers, should be con-
fined to men who have resided in tile
United States for number of years.

be done and we consider tie situation

ALLEGED CURES BY PRAYER,
A Wisconsin Clergyman Reports two
Gases Which came Under His OBJ

JANEsvIILB, Wis, Feb. 26.-Presid-
Ing Elder LUCY, of the Methodist
Episcopal Church, reports the follow
ing remarkable cases which have come
under his personal observation: At
Aliens Grove, Wis, during the past
month, Mrs. Slosson, who claimed to
have been herself healed by faith, was
called 70 the bedside Of gentleman
named H9rder, who had been sick for
six months and had been given up as
incurable by two physicians. He ex-
pressed belief In faith cure, and a
prayer-meeting was held at his house,
In the course ofwhich he believed him
self cured and arose from his bed. He
dressed himself, walked around, and
was able to walk to church the next
Sunday. The other case Is that of q
veteran Of the civil war, named Smith.
He has not been able to walk without
crutches for years, one leg being dis
eased, and for weeks at time he was
unable to go out Of doors. He was con-
verted during revival, and like Her-
der professed to believe In faith cure.
A prayer-meeting was held at his home
recently, and before it was ended he
was walking about as briskly rs any
one. He is now comparatively cured.
Both parties insist that their cures
were accomplished through supernatu-
raj agencies. Although Elder Lugg Is
no believer in this kind Of healing, he
gives the facts as he found them, and
admits that he is unable to account for

four feet eight and one-haIf inches, as It
snon will be, another long line will be
taken from what was once intended to
be q great system Of narrow gauge roads
reaching across the continent from east
to west aud north and south. One by
one the narrow gauge roads have, after
expensive experiments changed the
width Of their gauge to give them =
standing of ofimp0rtance and q chance to
do business with other roads. A num-
her of the three-foot that were to have
been arms Of the system have gone be-
fore aud become standard gauge lines

Others are to follow. II has been shown
that the narrow gauge road is not q sue

broad gauge roads Of the South are
bound to change their five-foot gauges
to the standard. The day is coming
when there will be no broad gauges or

Il closely figured on the profit per ton.
The average shipment per day when
the strike began was 900 cars; or IL, 900
tons, the selling price of which was
$4,000. The selling syndicate's profit
at 10 cents per ton was 81 500 per day.
The operators profit was Is cents per

Oh the labor side there were 1900
