Last Thursday morning boy OF
about ten rode up to the square on a
fine dun horse equipped with mans
saddle, and offered to sell to Squire
ProutY the animal and riding outfit
for sos. In the questions applied to
him by the squire the boy saw that
he was suspected of stealing the
horse, and without further ado turn
ed and galloped off. Constable
Rothermel was sent after him, but
missed the direction he took. It has
since been leaned that the boys
name is Ferrell, and that he is from
Brennan, where he stole the horse
and saddle. The boy was seen Thurs
day evening near Kenneyville, going
in the direction OF BRENNAN. He
may have regretted the act and by
this time returned the horse. Austin

Heavy Export OF Both Goidsand Silver to
European Ports.

Heavy Export of Both Goid.and Silver TO
European Ports.
NEW YORK, August 3,-Henry Clews & Co.'S.
circular which will be issued tomorrow says;
The South American political and financial
troubles have been instrumental in drawing
thus far this week through London six and
ore-half millions Of gold from New York. This
heavy export Of the precious metal, with a
prospect of more to follow. makes an offset to
the timely action of Secretary Window Of
changing his mode Of buying bonds, which adj
mitted of the Treasury paying ont over nine
millions against bonds bought. In ad-
ounces of silver have also gone forward to
London in the last few DAYS. The advance in
silver to liz is partially due to the export de-
mand, together with the anticipated early re-
quirements to meet the needs OF the Secretary
of the Treasury under the new silver law.
Nine million ounces will be required to be
bought for that purpose on or before the 18th
of October, which amount will about take up
al the available silver in this market The
early predictions In reference to it when the
silver bill was under discussion in Congress. At
that time great many people sup
posed to be authorities were persist
ent in their predictions that in
the event Of the passage of the Silver Act this
country would become the dumping.ground for
all the surplus silver in the world. was fully
that there was no Surplus silver held anywhere,
and consequently there was no cause for ap-
prehension from that quarter. When the Sec
retary enters the market as a buyer for his first
4500, 600 ounces for the month Of August, meet
ing. as he will, London as competitor, the
price is not unlikely to advance TO LIS at least
and venture the opinion that before this
present year Ia ended that 81. 20 and above will
be firmly established, and its equivalent in
London as the price per ounce for silver. The
effects OF this advance in silver will have q cor
responding effect on all products produced by
competing nations. which will make perman-
emily higher valuation than in recent years
for American wheat. corn and cotton.
The Secretary's large purchases of bonds un.
der his new system has been a brilliant success
as we'll as great welcome to the business COM
munity, especially as the funds released thereby
from the Treasury were much needed for busi-
ness wants. A part of the bonds bought were
the per cent issue, at about 124 which was a
material advance on previous purchases but
even at that price 1t should not be considered
too high. as the Government after the Mexican
War was compelledsto use Its surplus in
identically the same way as now for the pur-
chase Of ponds, and at that time paid as high as
1875 for the bonds then outstanding. i question,
however, the wisdom of the Secretary buying
at this time any part of the per cent issue. as
these bonds do not mature until the year 1907

WAITING AT THE CAGE DOOR.
A PHILADELPHIA DETECTIVE HERE
AFTER TWO PRETTY BIRDS.

Wanted for Nearly killing Two 0n1cera In q
Fight on a Freight Train-Both Men
Identifed-James Lewis Goes Away
gers.
Detective O'Brieu, Of thu Philadelphia
police force, is in the city, and hopes TO
return tomorrow with James Lewis, alias
Richard Clark, alias Manayunk White,
who Is now in the workhouse. The charge
against the man is attempted murder.
In July. 1889, there was q great deal of
train jumping and robbery in the neighbor-
hood OF Monacsy, near PhilsdeIphis.
Officers Kaercherer and Whartman. Of the
Philadelphia force, were detailed to look
after the matter. On the night Of July u,
the officers caught three tramps in freight
car. The officers, who were unarmed, at
tempted to arrest the men, but the latter
pulled revolvers, shot the officers and
escaped. The officers were so badly injured
that for months their lives were despaired
of, but they finally recovered.
Three months ago an officer was killed by
tramps at Brookville, Pa. James Lewis
and companion, who travels incognito as
Shenapdoah Jimmy, were arrested on sus-
pcion, but their connection with the crime
Gould not be proven. The men were there
fore held for carrying concealed weapons,
Davis getting three months and Shenan-
doah Jimmy six months to the Allegheny
County Workhouse. Captain Clark, Of
Brookville, thought the men might have
been connected with the Monacsy trouble,
and notified the Philsdelphia police.
Kaercherer, one OF the injured officers,
came to this city and identified both men a.
his assailants. There was NO means of get
ting the men out of the workhouse, so it was
edecided to wait until their terms expired
and then pick them up.
Detective O'Brien will take Lewis away
with him tomorrow, and three months
later he will return Tor Shenandoah Jimmy.
