NEW O ANARCHISTS.
They Have Began to Call Each Othsr
80 Hard Names.

New YORK, May 3.-A few weeks ago
Liberty, a newspaper published in Boston,
in the interests OF individualistic anarch-
lists, preferred charges OF . very serious
nature against the revolutionary anarch-
lists OF this city, who are led by John Most.
The substance of these charges was given
in til se dispatches ut the time. They were
in effect that members of the International
Working Peoples Association Of New York
were then
PLOTTING AND PRAcTICING INcENDIARIsM,
OF q most attrocious character under the
pretense OF adm: the cause. No details
were given nor were the matt es me TONED
of those against whom suspicion might be
directed. It was asserted that the scheme
consisted of insuring household property,
and then firing it in order to
collect naturalization. The money to
be contributed to the revolution
airy fund as well AZ to be used for private
purposes. The editor of Liberty declared
his object in publishing these charges was
to secure bona fide Anarchists against any
stigma that might attach to them from the
criminal deeds of interruptions men who
advocate doctrines and commit crimes
wholly at variance with the philosophy OF
~individualism.
The Sun this morning say that ever
since these charges were made it had been
investigating the matter and now gives the
results of ite labor. John Most, OF course,
made a denial OF the charges, and an at
tempt to verify Most's denial discloses q
peculiar condition Of things in Anarchistic
circles. There is internal dissension and
discord, or rather, there was. The facts,
which nave been cleaned after considerable
difficulty, show that the leading men OF the
International Working Peoples Associa-
ton must be remarkably unlucky men in
with the most extraordinary
doctrines, and that the fires from which
these gentlemen have suffered were moAt
peculiar. They all originated in the upset
ting, breaking or exploding "f kerosene
Ia mps, and have resulted in more or less
damage to the property OF Others than An.
archists and in the collection Of more or
less insurance money each time by persons
in whose apartments fires occurred. The
Sun then publishes a long list Of Anarchists
whose worldly goods have been destroyed
by fire, all of whom had been SO fortunate

Helena's Probate Clork Arrested for q
High Crime.
Special to THE MINER.
HELENA, Mont, May "a. Stevenson,
the former Clerk of the Probate Court and
who was censured by the Grand Jury last
year for gross irregularity was arrested to-
night on a warrant charging him with ON
verting to his own use $1,000 paid into
hat Court March 20, to Iiquidate a judy
ment against the estate of j. Y. Stewart,
deceased. Bail was fixed at $4,000.
NJ. Stewart, the complainant,
has a fine ranch on the Canyon Ferry Road.
This was the last claim against the estate
and she had to borrow a part OF the money
to pay it. When she found that the money
had not been forwarded she cried bitterly
and still was very slow to make
She gave the court until to-day
refund, but they did not come to time.
The receipt she holds was in full for the
judgment, 10 signed by A. Stevenson, clerk,
and bears the seal Of the Probate Court.
Stevenson cashed the check on the 23rd OF
March, at the First National Bank, and
the complaint charges that he converted
the sam to his own use. The prisoner,
who is the son of a Kentucky Ex-Governor,
takes his arrest coolly, stating that he can
clear himself. He thrashed q former CORE
spondent OF the Pioneer some months ago
for reporting his irregularities. He is a big
beefy fellow, with unmitigated gall. Jim
Hathaway made the arrest, and Judge
Davis, his employer, in conjunction with
j.. r. Watson, went OF his bond. Mrs.
Stewart, the widow, has one child, a boy
about 4 years, and is struggling alone to
free her ranch Of all membranes.

VALUE OF THE MONEY
Small Supply of Gold in the Bank OF
England.

New York, May 1.-The London Econo-
mist OF April II, has the following: The
rise in the value of money has now made
distinct progress and is likely to continue
Of the reasons for the rise it may suffice TO
Joint to two facts, which are SO significant
as to speak for themselves. One is that At
no time since 1879 have private deposits
at the Bank of England been so loW at
this period OF the year as they are now.
This other is that only once since 1870 mas
the stock of coin and bullion at the bank
in the middle of April been SO small! as
it now is. If gold were flow
ing into the bank from abroad, tne
comparative .smallness OF it's stock OF
metal might be OF minor Importance. Inc
onnosite OF this is the case. Gold Is stead
ily ebbing away from us, and in all pnon.
abilitv will continue SO long as the present
low tate is maintained. The market has
80 small a margin OF loanable capital IN
eDcass Of even the present very re-
str;cted demand, that any increase ~
Tho latter would very speedily, tel

onld ia concerned is usually weak, II
