EXCHANGE REVIEW.


NEW YORK, June 22.-The immediate future
OF the stock market is now supposed to hinge
directly upon the crop situation and the move
ment of gold. Trading has lost none OF its
strictly professional character and 1uctuation
was never more barren of feature. Still more
interest was displayed in silver, and it was not
only directly active but strong during the fore
noon, reaching later in the day over cent. A
hint from official sources that there is coming a
scarcity of the metal, while no explanation of
where the supply goes to, had considerable in
huence. One of the most prominent things in
the market today was the almost complete sub
sidence of industrial stocks. The closing was
dull but weak at lowest prices of the dag The

fractional losses.

A pathetic story comes from New
York: DR.. Boutwell, vas the minister
of one of the leading Congregational
churches of that city. Three weeks
ago one of his children was sick. lie
administered it n dose of medicine,
holding the cork stopper of the phial
in his lips while doing so. TO draw
the attention of the sick child from the
nauseating dose, n brother of the sick
baby was requested to play before it.
The kind father amused at the antics
of this other child involuntarily laugh
ed and sucked the cork down his
throat. 1t lodged in the lower part OF
the bronchial tube and there remained
fast, defying every effort to extract it.
1t soon became encysted and the re-
suit was pneumonia from which the
sufferer died last Monday. 1t is one OF
the strangest cases of the kind on
record.

nietaIlsL papois anu magazines ike Tie
National Democrat, Harper's Weekly
and Belford's, that the move for free
silver coinage is for the purpose of
heading off the tariff issue il a false
and infamous one The men in the DEM
ocratic party who are for silver coinage
are as true as steel in the cause of tariff
reform, and were so before Harper's
Weekly had ceased to be an advocate
of the worst phases of republicanism,
before Belford's Magazine existed, and
being.
1t is an insult to thousands of earnest
and sincere democrats, but who are
neither gold bugs nor idolaters, to say
that they want to have the tariff issue
laid aside simply because they believe
in silver coinage; and the imputation
that their purpose is to sidetrack the
tariff cause is as false as 1t is insulting.
The demand for a greater money
supply comes from the wants and
necessities of the people, just as that
for tariff reform has come. The rob-
berries through an unjust taxation bear
not more heavily upon the masses than
that which comes of the exalted pur-
chasing power of a restricted money
supply, and the corresponding reduc.
ton of the prices of the production OF
farm, field and workshop.
Who are the men that hold this
positionP
Their name is legion, and many OF
them are the very brightest and bravest
among the hosts of democracy. We
find in this company such e as Geo.
G. Vest, F. NJ. Cockrell, w. Fl. Hatch,
Dick Bland, Jno. c. Tarsney, of Mis-
souri,; Senators, Palmer, of Illinois
Daniel, of Virginia; Blackburn and
Garlic, of Kentucky Pugh,o Alabama,
and hundreds of Others, who to the
cause of democracy and all the issues
involved are as true as steel.
