THE failure Of the copper syndicate was
the result OF the righteous protest Of all
people against an extortionate combioa-
ton in trade. I'm a few months the syndi-
cate advanced the price OF Lake Superior
copper from l2l cents pound TO l7l cents,
and tine ccst Of production during this
time remained at six CENTS. The natural
result was diminished sale and Cousump-
ton cr copper. The syndicate wss unable

The only regret there can be Is that hun
deeds Of innocent people may suffer from
the financial panic, which may cOuvuise
an business centres in which the French
bankers were active.
A wreck like that which overlook the
copper syndicate ought to overtake all
organized conspiracies to control the mar

A farmer who was seated with his
wife in a wagon on the market yester-
day beckoned to newsboy who was
shouting: "All about" etc., and
asked "What's up now?"
"All about the message"
"What message?"
"The Presidents"
"Oh, that's it. The President sent
a message to some one, did he ?"
"It's message to Congress-" said
the boy after looking at the headlines
"Must be mighty Important"
"Yes, sir"
"Guess I'll take one."
II guess you won't!' said the wife
as he felt for his change. "What on
earth do you want of a message ?"
want to see what it is, don't ! ?"
"But it's nothing but reading"
mo, spose not, but the President
must had somethin' OH his mind when
he made it up"
"S'posin' he had. We've got 'nuA
on our minds, haven't we? You have
not finished that life o. Dan'l Boone"
That's so. Say, sorry to have
troubled ye, but ! guess l don't keer
for any message, and the old woman
is rather agin it, too. It's probably
all right, but don't keer to hear it.
I've got book to hum that makes
my hair stand right up on every page

he did knock Tnjuns and bars about

was being done several Of the crew
could fire at the galley to divert the
Chinaman's attention. First mate
Nicholson went to work on the sky
light and Just as he pried it open
three or four shots in rapid succession
whistled by his ear and he determin-
ed to push his assault no further
He went aft to get some ammunition
for the party attacking in front and
stole forward with it along the star
board side. 1t was lively trip. for
All Sin popped away at him every
foot of the way. Fortunately none
of the shots took effect, though seyer-
al cut holes in his clothes. There was
breathing spell for few minutes
after this and then All Sin began to
groan dismally. Nicholson started
up, thinking that the Chinaman was
surely strlcken.
"Be careful, | think he is deceiv-
ing you" called the captain.
II was lucky he spoke, for Nichol-
son, glancing up, saw the Chinaman's
eyes peeping through one of his port
holes and he fell on his face just in
time to escape bullet. From this
time on it was give and take pretty
lively. At last Nicholson managed
to get into position from which he
could shoot down into the galley
After couple of shots the Chinaman
suddenly ceased firing and the crew
thought he was playing them some
other foxy trick. 1t was not for sey-
eral hours that any one could be found
bold enough to approach the galley.
When they entered they found All
Sin lying on the floor with bullet in
his heart, pistol in his right hand a
freshly opened box of cartridges in
his left.
They buried him at sea that day,
and when the ship came into Sydney
the Captain and all the crew told the
story to the American Consul. He
made a thorough investigation and
forwarded the papers on to Washing
ton. Yesterday morning when the
Southern Cross let anchor fall in this
harbor, a couple of United States Of
ficers went on board and arrested the
Captain and the first mate for murder
on the high sea. They were taken
before Judge Lacombe, who fixed
their bail at $4,000 each, which was
furnished by Frederick Alexander, of
100 Cherry street.
The Southern Cross, which is at
anchor off Liberty Island, was visited
by World reporter last night. She
looks as if she had run blockade.
There is hardly piece of wood work
on her deck which does not contain a
bullet, and the galley is perforated on
all sides with bullet holes.-New York
