So great is the Interest in professional base
ball playing that one season is 90 sooner ended
than enthusiastic admirers of the sport begin
to wag their heads wisely over the prospects OF
the next summer. Just now baseball men are
amazed to see the Chicago club parting with
some of it's best players, and the prophecy Is
made in the East that in 1887 the contest will
lie between the New-YOrk ard the Detroit
mines. We wish it might but it it DIES the
Chicago club must not only play badly but the
Nsw-Yorkers must play a great deal better
than they did last summer. They should talk
less and work harder.

According to the United States Treasures
report, the number OF silver standard dollars
nov in circulation is 6l,761.44S. The pre-
diction is made that it will hardly be possible
to out out more than $1,000. 900 more, aud
tina, when the new 81 and So silver certificates
are In full supply at least one-haf OF these
metal dollars will be returned to the Treasury
In view of these facts and the tons %. silver
already coined and stored in the Federal
vaults, it is impossible to understand how any
INTEL gent man who does moi believe out ana
out in silver rather than r. Ill standard can
persist in demanding the coinage OF over
2. 600. 900 superHuous dollars every month.
Even if we must buy the silver bullion, the
cost Of coinage might be saved.
The new arrangement of the British Post
Office Department for the conveyance of its
mals to the United Slares still causes consider
able criticism. The first contract made by the
English Government for the dispatch OF
regular mails to this country was in 1888. IL
was with the Cunard Company, which Was paid
$4,000 "a year to put on three steamers and
arrange for semi-montbly departures. The
service was begun in 1910, and the compen-
satinu afrerward increased to 100000 year
which is a fair sum for a free trade country
that for the sake of consistency ought 10 be

the Umbria OF the Cunard line at Liverpool
