calOosa. Fla; Superintendent Bishop of
Reno, New; Superintendent Clark of To-
ronto, Canada, and Superintendent Draper
of Brattleboro, VT. All these authorities
say that insanity is increasing. Mr.. Bishop

ing throughout the world; it is merely
keeping pace with the other vices of the
human family. 1t is on the increase in the
United States in consequence of foul immi-
grafton" The authorities dissent from the
proposition that half of the world is insane.
The form of insanity most noticeable among
the American people is stated by the au-
thorites as follows: Superintendent God
ding says paresis is the most noticeable
and is increasing in popUlous centers !;

THE TRIPLE ALLIANCE.
Bismarck Talks on a Subject Of The Great
est Importance.

LONDON, June 14-Another interview
with Prince Bismarck is given to the world.
The Prince talks for the first time about the
triple alliance and his conversation will at
tract world wide attention. He begins by
alluding to the rumors.about the Russo-Ger-
man alliance and says that Emperor Will
lam will make mistake in seeking an al
lance with Russia, which might impair the
union of the three central powers which
has done so much to preserve the peace OF
Europe. AS for the triple alliance itself, If
not disturbed by outside engagements, he
believes it would stand firm. Apprehen-
sion had been expressed about Italy, but so
long as Signor Crispi remained at the head
of the Government Italy would not with
draw from tile alliance. There might. how
ever, be some variation in her attitude
should change be made in the Cabinet.

Reasons for the Recent Shir rmsnt Of One
Million Dollars.
NEW YORK, June 14.-The shipment of
100000 in gold yesterday to Europe is
thus explained: Lately there has been con-
siderable demand for gold from South
America, and Egypt also, in connection
with important financial operations, includ-
ing loans. The purchases of silver In Lon
don bore their fruit, and money there has
been steadily increasing. The official dis
count rate Of the Bank of England is 8 per
cent, but for short loans the bank is now
charging per cent. Quotations for call

from the london center would cause a rise
in the bank rate and possible create a dis
turbance. An additional sum in gold is
needed for the Greek loan, and Berlin took
occasion to obtain from New York gold by
paying little extra. This is a full ex-
PLANTATION of the transaction.
