The On.finw OF Gold

Europe is getting great deal of our gold.
She has got more than $40 100000 within
the last few months And still the outflow
continues at the rate Of several millions
week. Our inanciers say that the outflow
will cease shortly. 1t is to be hoped that it
will. 1t is having paralyzing effect in
this country. 1t is true that no financial
disturbances have been produced, and it is
probable that we could stand the loss of a
good many millions more without showing
any symptoms of alarm. but, at the same
time, the fact cannot be concealed that there
is lack Of broyant feeling in the money
centers and business circles of the country.
Legitimate enterprises cannot be foated
80 easily in New York to-day as they could
six months ago, and all kinds of securities
even those which are gilt-edged-have a
downward tendency. II this condition of
affairs is not due to the outflow of gold, to
what is it duet There is no other apparent
reason for the UNIV illingness of capitalists
to embark in new enterprises or for the
hesitation of people who have money to in
vest to purchase first~class securities. Nor
can the decrease In the volume of business
| be explained on any other ground.
The reasons given for the outflow of gold
seem to be the correct ones, aud doubtless
they are. and it may be that the pur pose for
which Europe wants our gold is pretty
nearly accomplished. 1t is certainly to be
| hoped that it is, for if the drain continues
| much longer the summer will be a dull one
| from business standpoint.

The Flag Have Camel

OF those fellows Respondent in uniform, who
make their horses prance sideways on parade
He was certainly beautiful TO look
at, but he never opened his mouth without
fatal results. Gen. Plummer had been killed,
and the preparations for the funeral in proper
military style wers nearly complete. A flag
was required TO cover the caisson on which the
comm rested, ana Rosecrans dispatched his
dudish aid to procure one. Returned with the

A troublesome omcial.

Commissioner Raum is giving the Presi>
resign, but he will not, although he knows
that his resignation would be acceptable to
the President. He had a long talk with the
President on Wednesday, the purport of
which has not been made public.
The commissioner talks too much. In
that respect he is like his predecessor Tan
ner. He has told some conflicting stories
relative to the crooked transactions of his
son. But his great mistake was in telling
the President that there is conspiracy in
the interior department to get him out of
office.
OF course there is no conspiracy. Doubt
less the Secretary of the Interior would like
to get rid of him, but he is not the sort of a
man to attempt to accomplish that object by
underhand methods. The fact is Raum
owes his present unhappy predicament to
himself and his son. If they had attended
strictly to business and had had nothing to
do with patent refrigerators, pension sharks
and the office brokerage business they
would be all right They would have es-
capped scandals and would have saved the
President great deal of annoyance
If Raum doesn't resign he will be investi-
gated by congress. The country is not sat
isfed with the management of the pension
Office and the President knows it isn't. II
is probable, therefore, that the rumor that
the President is looking for Raum's sue
cessor is correct. And it can be pretty
safely stated that he will find him before

Timidity Saved Him Three Times.

We point with pride, says the Albany Union,
to Joseph Seminar and Mrs. Joseph Sehman,
who, until yesterday, was Miss Lizzie Nichols
Of Riverside, n. J. Joseph had persevered
against an overmastering weakness and Lizzie
had trampled on a very human pride to an ex-
tent that wins our admiration.
Joseph has loved Lizzie for many days, so the
report runs, and was well beloved by Lizzie. He
proposed in due time, was accepted, and the
day for the wedding arrived. With it came
pretty Lizzie to the altar But Joseph failed
to come. There were tears and righteous
execrations, and many pretty pout.
The days passed, and with them came ex-
plantations from Joseph. IL was all his timidity
At the last moment his heart failed him, and
in that panic which bashfulness will often
precipitate he fled from the bliss which he
longed for.
Lizzie benignantly forgave him. The sun
shone again, and a new day for the nuptlals was
set. 1t came, but again brought no Joseph.
Another explanation was as successful as the
first and third attempt to execute the frac-
tious contract was as futile as the other two.
When the young man came for the fourth
time to sue for the lady's hand, full of humilia-
ton for his foolish terror, she made her con-
sent provisional on their immediate marriage.
Before he had had time to be stricken with his
unfortunate malady he had been pronounced a
husband by the nearest minister
We trust that all their hopes of happiness
may be realized

Not a Dumping oround.

It is fully time European countries were
made TO understand that this country is not
dumping ground for the scum of their
populations. There are more undesirable
immigrants coming here now than at any
previous time in our history. The regular
lines of steamships from Europe are not
able to accommodate them, and tramp
steamers are being hired to transport them.
Aud the efforts made to prevent the unde-
sirable Immigrants from landing are ex.
tremely feeble.
The Secretary of the Treasury, under a
law passed by the last congress. has ap-
pointed commission 70 go TO Europe and
find out the means employed by the govern
ments In the different European countries
to get the scum of their populations to
emigrate. 1t is considered absolutely GER
tain that most OF the people who are emil
grating from certain countries which are
sending us large numbers of emigrants are
prompted to do so by their respective gov
ernments. 1t is even intimated that they
are the recipients of government aid. If
they are the commission that will visit
Europe this summer will find it out. and
the information will be laid before congress
for its action.
The chairman of the commission is Exon
gresham Grosvenor of Ohio. He is an able
and an aggressive man, and the commission
under his direction will make report, in all
probability, that will be worth something.
Congress has been dealing with this im-
migration question in hesitating aud I'M
certain kind of way. 1t has seemed afraid
to take any positive steps toward shutting
our gates against immigrants who are not
wanted and who are harmful to US. We
have so long pursued the policy of re-
ce.ving all who come that it is
difficult to change it, Public opinion. how
ever, has become so aroused by the coming
of hordes OF people who are assimilated
with difficulty, and who are not only a bur-
den to society but menace to our institu-
tions, that congress will be forced to take
steps to sift immigrants and admit only
those who are genuine homeseekers and who
will contribute to the upbuilding OF the
country.
The steamship companies are supposed to
cooperate with the immigration authori-
ties in keeping out undesirable immigrants,
but from all accounts they do not do so.
They are so eager Co make money that
nearly all of them bring to this country
anybody who can pay his passage or whose
passage is paid. If they we're forced to
take back the undesirable part of their
passengers they would be little more care
full to obey the immigration laws.
AS a matter of fact, we want only the
very best of the immigrants, and we are in
a position to pick and choose. If we accept
the scum, it Is our own fault, and we will
have to endure the evils with which it il
sure to atfilct u.s.

Just Ono More Question.

Senator Zeb Vance of North Carolina, while
at the Palace hotel, San Francisco. with party
of friends, noticed young man with a slight
limp walk across the corridor and pause to

The Hostility to Phillips Brooks.

Il il by no means certain that the Prot
estant Episcopal dioceses will confirm the
election Of DR.. Brooks as bishop OF Massa>
chusetts. The diocese of Newark has re-
fused to consent 70 his conservation. and so
has the standing committee OF the diocese
Of Iowa. The vote in the Chicago Episco-
pal synod will. it is supposed, be tie, the
clergy being against, and the laity for, con-
flrmation. Indeed, tire opposition to him is
cropping out on all sides, and it would not
be at all surprising il his confirmation
should be defeated simply because he is not
as much of a High Churchman as some Of
the High Church people think ne ought
to be.
The charge is made against him that he
is in sympathy with the views held by DIR.
Heber Newton, of ALI Souls church, New
York city. who is charged with being a
hereto, and who IL 10 be required to answer
the charge. DIR. Newton says that the
church is in a panic. that men ars no
longer controlled by reason, but are going
blind" 1t begins to look as il there were
truth in this statement.
1t would seem to be a grave mistake TO
He has never been charged with being a
hereto. No exception has ever been taken
to any of bis pulpit utterances. And he is
one of the most powerful pulpit orators Of
the world. His ability to state CHRISTIAN
truths so that the common people can I'M
derstand and appreciate them is remark
able. In that respect be has few equals and
no superiors. His following is large and
influential, and it will not desert him.
A failure to confirm his election, therefore.
simply because High Church clergymen
object to him might result in incalculable
damage to the church.
II he is not consistent Episcopalian it
is strange that the fact was not discovered
until he was elected bishop. He has GER
tainly said nothing since he was elected that
would indicate that he is not. 1t really
looks as if the charge that he holds views
opposed to those of the church were a
trumped up one, and made for the purpose
of defeating his confirmation. The hereto
hunters are striking at shining marks, and
in their zeal they do not seem to care how
much damage they may do to their church.

They Got Together.

From the Ne1 York Tribune (Rep.).
The discordant elements in the Cincinnati
convention got together to such an extent
yesterday that the Peoples party Of the
United States of America was launched. a
platform adopted and national committee
appointed. The platform demands the aboli-
tion OF national banks, advocates the sub
treasury plan,' favors free coinage of silver. a
tax on incomes the election of President and
vice president and senator's by popular vote
etc. On the tariff there is no clear utterance.
The comparatively harmonious action of the
convention at the last was a surprise to the
delegates themselves. How soon the harmony
will disappear time will show.
