The Detectives of Wall Street.

Thousands of pedestrians move to and
fro past the stock exchange and about
the money center of the city each day.
Solid old financiers, whose check would
be taken unquestioned for a million,
come and go. Dapper clerks, who look
like millionaires on steen dollars a week;
messenger boys by the score fit hither
and thither with hands full of bonds or
other securities making deliveries accord
ing to contracts and sales arranged on
the exchange floor. Bank agents, with
small fortunes often in the capacious
portmonnaies strapped to their waists,
going to the clearinghouse to make good
the daily balances, while every few mo-
ments comes the numbering wagon
pushed along the sidewalk conveying the
cash from Uncle Sans collecting counter
at the custom house to Uncle Sans
strong vault below the sub-treasury. On
every side is wealth, yet attempts at
robbery are very rare, and successful
ventures at thievery scarcer still.
The fact is that every face passing
along Wall street is scanned. 1t is a
great place for seeming loafers and
loungers. Curbstone brokers have the
semblance of loungers. Clerks enjoy a
cigarette on the sidewalk. So lounger
more or less is not noted. But all who
apparently loaf about with little to do
are not loafers. They are sharp-eyed de-
tectives, to whom the face of every crook
in the country is known, and who are
constantly on the lookout for those faces.

sincerity of democrats as free traders
in manufacturing districts is fully
tested by his defeat, and warns the
lesser lights of free trade to emulate
the example of Cleveland and keep
shady.
A republican exchange says. that
in summing up the results of the
elections our democratic brethren
doubtless will be led into the inquiry
where the Endorsement Of the nation
al administration comes in. 1t Will
be proper thing to inquire why
their party is weaker after control
ling the government two years than
it was before. 1t is shown by the
elections that, though the relative
strength of politics not much changed
since 1884, yet such changes as have
occurred are on the whole unfavorable
to the prospects of the democratic
party. The republicans have gained
a good many members of the house
of Representatives, they hold their
own in legislatures that are to elect
senators, and moreover, they are fav
ored by the fact that the prohibition
movement, as a method of drawing
from the republican party, has appar
emily passed its elimination and is
on its decline Another significant
thing is the apparent fact that the
labor movement, so called, threatens
the democratic party quite as much
as the prohibition movement hereto
fore has menaced the republican. In
New York. Chicago and other cities
the socialist and labor movement has
detached from the democratic party
a mighty mass of voters, withoat
whom that party can have no pros
pect whatever of success in nation
al contest; and now the thing that
remains to be seen Is whether these
voters will persist in their undertak-
ing to maintain distinct party, or
whether they can be won back to
their former affiliations.

UesuIt. of the Election.

SAN FRANCISCO, Nov. 13.-0fhclal re-
turns from five counties are still lacking
on the vote for attorney general. Esti-
mating the vote in these counties as the
same as was cast for governor, the plur-
ality of Hart (rep) over Johnson (dem.)
will be 256. The official returns of the
vote for superintendent of public instruc-
ton are lacking from seven counties.
Estimating the vote III these counties as
being the same as was cast for governor,
the plurality of Hoitt (rep.) over MOulder
DEM viii he about 720. This will di-
vide the state ticket as follows: To the
democrats, governor, secretary OF state,
comptroller of the treasury, clerk Of the
supreme court and one supreme judge;
to the republicans, acknowledgements,
surveyor general, attorney general, su-
perintendent OF public instruction and
two supreme judges.
Ship Webfo0t Totally Destroyed.
VICTORIA, B. c., Nov. 14.-The GOIonist
reporter saw Capt. Yeates, OF the Web
foot, this morning. He reports that at
noon Friday the crew requested that the
ship be put back, as she was making too
much water to proceed. He kept the
ship headed for Royal Roads, however,
and at 4 p. N. Cape FIattery was to the
southeast. At p, N. she took pilot on
board. AT p. m. the ship was reported
on fire. All hands were called on deck
and struggled bravely to subdue tie
flames, which were in the after hatch.
The mizzen stay sail was placed over the
after hatch, and then the sailors COM
msnced throwing water into the hold at
the miZzen mast. Part of the crew
worked at the fire while the Others made
the boats ready aft, so as to have them
clear and ready IN any emergency. About
10 p. II. all hands went into the boats
except Capt. Yeates, with one sailor, who
remained on board, steering for the south
shore. They stayed by the vessel until
the poop-deck fell in. The loss OF the
doomed ship at this hour was inevitable.
and the two men took to the boats over
the stern. AT this time the ship was one
mass of fire. Capt. Yeates consulted tie
pilot, who thought it advisable to get the
boats ashore. The captain, mate and
three men stayed by the ship until a. m
Saturday, when the second mate and two
men got on board Of tug, though the
captain ard one man stood by the burn
ing vessel until p. m., when they were
Obliged to abandon her to her fate, and
boarded pilot boat which brought them
to Victoria at II o'clock last night. On
the homeward trip the ships boat, which
was taken Ill tow, filed with water and
broke adriit. The Webfoot at that lime
was burned to the waters edge, and all
the spCrs, bowsprlt. beams and anchors
were destroyed. The Webfoot was classed
A IL for four years in American Lloyds,
from October last. The crew numbered
sixteen. Une vessel VAS burned near
Clailam bay, and abandoned few miles
from shore at this point. She is q total
loss, and the amount Of insurance on the
vessel and cargo, if any, is unknown.
The Webfoot was of Belfast, and was
consigned by The Tacoma milling COM
pany to Grace Bros. Her cargo consist
ed of S62,0 feet of lumber and 200 cases
of salmon.
