The statement of Bell & Eyster's
bank, of Duluth, which failed last week,
has been published. Lit gives assets,
81, ,189, ,626.1G; liabilities, 500, $50. 36.
This gives surplus Of $393, 936, and has
done much to aiiay the panicky feeling
of the past week.
According to st. Petersburg dis
patch the czar has decreed that no sem
tence Of death shall hereafter be carried
out without his special approval. The
decree is believed to have been prompted
by the circumstances of the hasty execu-
tion of young Perloff, the son of Mos
COW merchant, for crime of which he
was innocent.
st. Mary's canal is officially announced
closed for the season. The number of
boats passing through the canal this sea-
son is 1857, and passengers carried,
1856. The freight carried is 9,051 .213
pounds, allowing for the blockade dur
ing the break of the lock valve. The
above figures show a very encouraging
increase over the preceding year.

the shotgun policy is brought into
play. In his inaugural address on
the 4th inst. Gov. Tillman of South
Carolina, who was elected on the
Democratic Alliance ticket, among
other things, said: In our own state
of South Carolina, the triumph of
Democracy and white supremacy
over mongrelism. of civilization over
barbarism, has been most complete;
and it is gratifying to note the fact
that this was attended by political
phenomenon which was surprise to
all of us-our colored fellow citizens
absolutely refused to be led to the
polls by their bosses. When it is
clearly shown that majority OF our
colored voters are no longer imbued
with Republican ideas, the vexed
negro problem will be solved and the
fear of return of a negro domination
will haunt us no more" That's it;
colored men of the south, vote the
Democratic ticket and refuse to hold

Will there be free coinage? is the

people here affect to believe trade
imminent between the silver senators

Inter Lake Tribune: 1t is to be
hoped that the next Minnesota legis-
lature will pass law compelling the
publication of notices OF chattel mort
ssaga foreclosure and sale. Under
the present law the sale OF property
under foreclosure Of chattel mortgage
is conducted IN such manner that
buss fa,y people klow anything about
i u..t:l tic sale is over and the pro
perty is bid in by the holder of the
mortgage at a very low price. We
claim that notice of these sales should
be more general in order that the
mortgagor may have better oppor-
tunity to get the value of his property
and thus relieve him of the debt after
his property has been taken. Let
the newspapers throughout the state
take up this matter and thoroughly
agitate it. 1t is legislation much
needed for the protection of the poor
man, and if it receives proper atten-
ton. can be made law at the next
session of the legislature.

Washington Letter: Congress has
met and started into work in the right
way-the horse before the cart and
not the cart before the horse. First
the election act in the Senate and the
apportionment in the House. The
appropriation measures of necessity
must be passed, be the work of this
Congress or the next, but honest and
fair elections and an honorable and
equitable distribution of Congress
men must be accomplished this
winter or not at all. Present indica-
tions point to the success of both
measures, and appropriations will not
fail because the Democrats dare not
hazard an extra session with the fin
ancial requirements of the govern
ment as the sole issue.
Congress is quite at sea concerning
the cure that must be prescribed for
the financial ills we have, and those
most learned In monetary matters
fear to fly to those we know not of.
It is admitted that Secretary Window
submitted an able diagnosis of our
fiscal evils, but he stopped just short
of the suggestion of a remedy. At
the Treasury Department it is con-
tended that the cure of the disease is
the province of legislation; that of
the executive to offer the plain, un-
vanished history of the pstisnt.
Secretary Window, they add, makes
two things patent that the crop
movement In the fall causes annually
an undue absorption Of money, and
that nearly all of the most destructive
money panics have occurred at this
period Of the year. This means pure
and simple, more money. How to
get it though, is still the unsolved
conundrum. incidentally, it is true,
the secretary hints at a convertible
bond of low interest, and this leads
to the belief that later In the session
the Treasury will recommend the,
issuance of such bonds bearing not
more than two per cent interest and
convertible at will into currency.
Both senators and members in
droves are daily gathered about the
White House. When spoken to, they
say the visit is purely social, but the
observer notes the fact that it fre-
quently takes a lengthy consultation
to pass the compliments Of the season.
The truth is strong pressure is being
brought to bearto induce the Presi-
dent to put Republicans in those
places now held by Democrats. 1t is
urged that neither politics nor friend
ship are subserved by letting the

The dangers Of Railroading.

s'There is no branch of railroading
that is safe, !" is a saying among men who
make their living on the iron rails, and
a mans long service ana skillful knowl-
edge do not throw absolute safeguards
about him. Poor Martin Ryan, who
had the science of railroading down to
the finest notch, was killed by his own
train after eighteen years of service.
Hubert Graham, a yard man of Rich
mond, who worked for the Pennsylvania
company twenty-five years, was struck
by pony engine few days ago. Sam
uel Morgan's body was brought here
last night. Morgan was an engineer on
the Jeffersonville, Madison and Indian
apolis for thirty years. Advancing age
incapacitated him from running an en-
gine, and he was given charge of a wa
ter station at Marshfeld, near SCOTS
burg. Night before last he was run
down by freight train and killed.
'sDid you notice that six out of ten rail-
road men die violent deaths if thex.s,n-
tinue in the business" said a CONF 2aosoa
last evening. IF they don't IT'S because
they leave the railroad service. Indian

1t is interesting to take the map
and see how neatly our cunning Eng
lish relatives have contrived to hem
us in, and how they count on blotting
up our seapoSts in the event OF an
other disagreement. Beginning at
Halifax, says the Boston Journal, the
defenses of which are continually be-
ing strengthened, and have just been
pronounced impregnable, we find
some 900 miles to the southwark and
500 miles off our Carolina coast,
Bermuda, with docks, machine shops
and Notifications, continually main
tanned on war footing for no con-
ceivable purpose except to enable
John Bull to keep an eye on Brother
Jonathan. Three hundred miles
farther southwark are the Bahamas,
whice almost touch our coast, and still
farther south, Jamaica, where strong
military force is stationed, command
ing the Caribbean sea and the Gulf
of Mexico. British Honduras, in
Central America, completes the chain
of colonies which encircle us. With
a few cruisers judiciously distributed
between Florida and Yucatan, and
with Belize, st. Lucia and Kingston
as bases of supplies to fall back on,
the Gulf of Mexico could be sealed as
effectually to our privateers and COM
merce as our blockading fleets sealed
up the harbors of the Confederacy.
Of course this is no justification for
any panic. T. mt the American Wag.
to give a thought to possible adver-
saries or ,warlike contingencies. Every
war we nave ever had has caught us
holly unawares. But it is as plain
as ess.ES that the Gordon of military
cable, dockyards, coaling stations and
forts that England is building up
along our Atlantic coast is really
trespassing too far on Yankee indif-
ference and good nature.

MRS. eLADsFeNRs KINDNESS.
How the Great Stateman's Wife Treated o
Pretty American Girl

A pretty American girl recently
called upon Mrs. Gladstone at her
London Home. She carried q most
favorable letter of introduction as a
member of a well -knownAmerican fam
lily Her brightness and sparkle attrac-
ted the wife of the greatEnglish states
man, and for an entire afternoon and
evening she lived in the Giadstena
household. She confessed to Mrs.
Gladstone that her visit had a pur-
pose that of writing an article on the
home-life of her hostess for an Ameri-
can magazine.
"But my DEAR" said Mrs. Glad
stone, "your people are interested in
Mr.. Gladstone; they do not know me"
'sThat is just why came" replied
the girl, lin order that Americans
may learn little more of you"
At the tea-table, Mr.. Gladstone
joined with his wife in entertaining
the American girl, and few were ever
given better opportunity Of seeing
the Gladstone home-life.
The quiet part which Mrs. Glad
stone has played in the career of her
famous husband is kaes#a to only
few. While thousands of articles
have been written Of Mr.. Gladstone,
none Of an authoritative character
have been printed of bis wife. Even
her portrait is seldom seen 10 the
English shops; rarely in the prints.
She has always felt that public inter-
est in her own country and across the
sea was centered in her husband, and
in order that his greatness might
stand out more scrikingly, she has
each year further retired from public
view. A freshness will, therefore, at
tach itself to the story "a Day with
Mrs. Gladstone, as it will be told By
her bright young visitorin The Ladies'
Journal, Of Philadelphia, during the

Had it not been for the fact that a
large majority of the colored people
OF thessorth were 4simbued with RE
publican IDEAS it is more than pro-

was because the colored man almost

KING KALAkUA's MISSION.
He Is Said to Want to Sell His Littl
Island Tn His IJncIe SnroucI

He Is Said to Want to Sell His Little
Island to His Uncle Samuel
SAN Francisco, Dec. 8.-King Kala-
kua has not come alone for his health;
neither has he come as some have re-
ported to float $4,000, 1000 loan, on
which he would pocket tidy commits
sion. 1t has just leaked out that his
mission is to propose to the state de-
partment the annexation of the Hawaiian
islands TO the United States. This news
comes directly from man largely in
terested in sugar interests ON the islands
and may be accepted as authoritative.
OF course, Kalakua's officers will deny
it, but all the facts show that the king
Has Reached the jumping or Place,
and must decide shortly either to risk
another revolution or to sell his king
dom and get a fat pension. He has
been authorized by the Hawaiian gov
ernment to tender the islands to Secre-
tary Blaine on terms which, it is
thought, congress will accept. The
sugar planters as well as Kalakua
are in the hole. Under tine
reciprocity treaty they really got
bonus of 9 cents pound on all their
sugar. Now, under the Mckinley bill,
which makes sugar free, they lose all of
this, because the growers of this country
receive bounty of 2 cents pound. If
the Hawaiian islands should come under
the American flag the planters woul
receive this bounty, which would amount
to several millions a year.
Blaine Believed to Be Favorable.
1t is believed the administration will
receive Kalakua's overtures with fa-
vor. Mr.. Blaine on repeated occasions
has expressed the opinion that sound
policy demands that the United States
should control the Hawaiian islands, and
sne wiz back any movement for their
acquisition on favorable terms. 1t is
not known what demands Kalakua
will make, but the belief is that they
will not be excessive.
