Soon he struck a specie. box Others had
gathered around. and when he disclosed the
glittering $40 gold pieces there was lively
scramble. To attract them away
from hun he threw shower of
gold pieces in the air, ard while
the men were scrambliug for them, he I'M
earthed two more boxes and ran into the
woods to secrete his valuable find. What

Many rushed TO the suffers tent. and,
though gold was a heavy premium, they

no part in it should not be held accountable,
and that the money was now beyond the

most of it having been spent.
"His reply was that ne would disgrace
the regiment by taking away its colors,

cashier all the officers. said to him that

MUST HAVE A RATIONAL POLICY. i

We must 60 back, too, to rational tariff
policy. No @;lch tariff as McKinley's was ever
dreamed OF before the war by the widest
visionary. It. is protection run mad. Hamilton
and Jefferson, wide as the pc es asunder on
most political questions, agreed about the tariff.
The two great parties they founded and their
successors down to tais day have accepted the
principle of tariff for revenue with incidental
pfotection-digering only in the extent of pro-
lection The contention of the democracy has
always been not for free Jrade-but to extend
this indirect help only to such industries as
really need it, and to reduce it to the minimum
consistent with the diversihcation and preserva-
ton of home Industries, SO that the people may
have the benefit of competition between home
and foreign producers whenever prices rise
above fair and living rates in the American
markets. That is all the aid the worlSingman
in protected industries can get no matter how
hign the tariff be put; for his wages cannot rise
beyond the general level of wages of the far
more numerous and equally apt and intelligent
laoorers in unprotected industries. The Repub-
lcan party has now thrown to the winds the
prnciple of a tariff for revenue with incidental
protection as recognized by both parties from
the foundation OF the government. It has
enacted a tariff for protection only, making
duties designedly prohibitory thereby check
ing EXCHANGES with other nations, and leaving
G3G00,0 GOO of consum ers to be pluudered by the
p detected manufacturers. who will, as for as
possible, hold prices just below tho level of the
tariff wall.

The Latter Easily Defeated by the For

New York. November 27th.-The cham
pionship football game between Princeton
and Yale, which was contested on the
Eastern Park grounds at Brooklyn to-day,
was won by Yale-32 to 0. The game was
witnessed by 25,000 persons, who had re-
covered from the depression caused by the
accident of couple of hours before, and
manifested their enthusiasm in every con-
ceivable manner. Nearly all the different
colleges in the East were represented
among the coachers. Their sympathies
were evenly divided.
The game was great one, but the
Princeton eleven was over matched. Their
rush line seemed mere striplings compared
with Yale, and frequently used bad judg-
ment.
When the first half was ended Yale had
scored sixteen and Princeton nothing.
When the second half began no one was in
doubt about the result and gloom had
fallen over the Princeton contingent
Their eleven seemed incapable of stop.

Startling Discovery Made by workmsu
on the steamer Alert
SAN FRANCISCO, November 27th The
Chronicle says the United States steamer
Alert, which is under orders 10 relieve the
Swatora on the China station, and has been
at Mare island several months undergoing
repairs, was to have sailed December Sd,
and everything was in readiness.
On Monday last as final preparation.
she was taken to the dry dock to have her
bottom scraped and painted The work
men had hardly commenced operations
when they heard rumbhng noise over
head. An investigation showed that about
twenty square feet of the iron b,gler sup
ports, which form an interior or second
bottom, had fallen in amidshiCs. The
heavy iron beams were found to have cor
roded away, snd the heavy boilers were
resting on the ships bottom.
The Alert, although an old ship, was re-
garded as a stanch vessel. A large force
was at once put at work making repairs,
and are working night and day TO get the
ship in readiness to sail December 10th.
Had the supports of the boilers held out
until the vessel was at sea, and given away
there, the heavy boilers would probably
have fallen clesn through, leaving the
vessel not only without steam power, but
with hole in her bottom 50 large that she
would have Immediately sunk.

New YORK. November 27th.-C. II. H.
Clarke, Vice-P President and Manager of the
Missouri Pacific, it is said was last night

Gould would not say whether or not the

ADAMS THEoRIsT.
NFw YoRK, November 27,h.-To-morrow
the Tribune will print an interview with
Jay Gould in which he says that ex Presi.
dent Adams, of the Union Pacific, is the
orist, who conducted the many affairs of
the Union Pacific without the knowledge
of the Directors.
Gould said he learned when in Kansas
City that Adams personally owned control
of the stock yards there, and while the
railroad was carving in their live stock at
the bare cost of transportation, the stock
yards earned 81 ,000, 900 the past year. Such
action as this, Gould said, would never be
permitted under the new management. He
believed the Burlington and Rock Island
will both come into the plan for securing
better results from the western railway
business. No further changes, he said,
were to be made in the Union Pacific.

delegates to America unanimously support
his retention, motion will be carried at
Mondays meeting deposing him.
IT COMES TOO LATE.
New YORK, November 27th.-A San
London special says: 81 am given to un-
derstand that Parnell has communicated
certain facts 10 the Irish Parliamentary
party, which, if made known to the world,
would materially modify the opinion
formed as to his private conduct, and
would convince most OF the Liberals that
there is no justification for the demand for
his withdrawal from the Irish leadership.
This suggestion has been conveyed to
the Liberal leaders, whose obvious reply is
that it comes too late; that the verde; in
the divorce Court was not surprise. 1t
was verdict that the defendants knew the
whole of the evidence which was to be
given against them, and that by entering
no appearance or defense they admitted its
accuracy
