case was tried here today before Judge Car

room was crowded to its utmost capacity,
there being large attendance of ladies. A
considerable portion of the day was spent in
wrangling over plcadings and points of law.
County Attorney Dewell appeared for the

None of the startling developments as to the
vast fortune of Mrs. Bresee have vet ap-

overruled by the court, but upon another mo-

to The BEE. Ferdinand Schiller, q saloon

able occurrences that has ever happened in

it is owing to the latter fact that he is alive

took tug to return to this city. While sit

away to hear him. In exactly one hour and
a half from the time he fell

hundred yards of the man in the water, whose
cries were heard by those on board. A boat
was lowered, two Of the deck hands jumped
in and the boat was rowed in the direction of
the cries. When the boat hove in sight still
quietly floating, his face turned upward with
an expression of meek resignation, was the
unfortunate Schiller. The men tried to get
him into the boat, but the task was too much,
so rope was passed under his arms and in
this manner he was towed astern. Then
came the problem of getting him on board,
and this was at last effected by derrick.
His body was well rubbed, and when he was
landed he seemed none the worse for his
float He was taken home by the police, who
had learned that he was missing from the

JONES On MONEY.
The Nevada Senator Talks OF the Far.
mers' Alliance Demands.


NEW YORK, August Especial Telegram
to The BEE.l-Senator Jones of Nevada ex-
pressed himself very freely in an interview
on the farmers alliance. Ho thought the
farmers might secure twenty or thirty, or
forty alliance members in the next congress.
"rhen the end of the movement will Gomez
said he, "because when they are there they
will have nothing for which they can
unitedly ask or which they will demand
to be done that is not being done. The part of
their movement on which / look with the
most intense interest is the demand for the
issuance of money upon products-corn
wheat oats, etc, 1t is going to make the
men who have been crying for years that
money must have an intrinsic value, take a
new view of things. If the gold men
are right, then the farmers are right.
There is more intrinsic value in wheat corn
and oats than i'll gold, because these products
supply and sustain life, whereas gold will
not. IL 1T was left to mans choice to take
wheat or gold on which to su osist for num-
ber of years on barren island, how quickly
he would choose the wheat. But while it
will awaken the gold men to the foOlishness
OF their position in reference to what money
should be, it will not awaken an intelligent
discussion and understanding of the real
basis OF money, which should b. quantitative.
No matter what the medium of exchange be-
tween people, 1t is patent that if the popula-
ton increases 3 per cent or per cent it will
require per cent or 3 per cent more money
to effect eXcnanges-that is to transact busi-
ness among people. if the money condition is
to remain unchanged. This is why and
many Others believe that the medium of ex-
change once decided upon may be anything
which the government selects and gives the
name of money, and its value will always be
relatively determined by the ratio of its linn

CALVIN BRICE'S AMBITION,
He Buys raper to Boom Him for tn e
Presidency.

WASHINGTON, August 5,-[Special Tele
gram to THE BEE. 1T is stated upon the
mostexcellent authority that Calvin S. Brlce,
United States senator-elect from Ohio, has
bought the indianapolis Sentinel. The sale
of the Sentinel was made about two weeks
ago. In New York it is stated that the pur-
chase of the Sentinel means boom for Mr..
Brice for the presidential nomination in 1892.
There is Standard oil money in the purchase,
but the advocacy of Standard oil interests is
to be but secondary Its primary object is
to bring about the nomination of Oho's new
senator for the presidency. This move is
certainly in direct conflict with the ambitions
OF Mr. Cleveland, who is not admired by Mr.
Brice. The general policies of the paper are
to remain as in the past except Mr. Cleveland
will likely slip out of the mind of it's editor
MIR. Brice's object in investing largely in
indianapolis real estate is regarded in New
York as shrewd move to capture the dele
cation in 1892.

LOTTERY LOEB VISITS WORK.
They Set Their Lines For Campaign
in North Dakota.

NEW HoRK, August Especial Telegram
TO The BEE. Something or somebody has
called the chiefs of the Louisiana lottery lob
byists to this city. They have been spending
several days here and the surmise is that
they are planning campaign not only in
Washington, but also in North Dakota. An
ex-senator of the United States, who is known
to be one of the best paid representatives
OF the lottery company, has just returned
from North Dakota and has met his associate
lobbyists here. He has reported that if the
Washington lobby does its work as well as he
has done his, they will earn the sums paid TO
them.
Notwithstanding the fact that the party
platform in North Dakota of both parties con-
tains an anti-ottcry plank, this ex-senator de-
clares that a majority of the members elected
to the next legislature in North Dakota will
vote fore charter under which the lottery
company can operate in that state. He SAYS
tnat they VIII not secure a twothirds vote,
Dut have been careful to see to it that neither
of the men nominated for governor will veto
bill containing This charter which ever one
of them is elected. 1t is probable that this
ex-senator eXaggeratcs and desires to impress
upon his employers the value of his work
but what he says makes it plain that the lot
terry people are still trying to secure fayOrs
from the state of North Dakota and will CON
tinuc to try until it is evident that public
sentiment in that state is as strongly set
again st any tolerance Of lotteries as is the
opinion in New York and Pennsylvania.
