JOHN I1OEYS CLAIM.
He Says Others Would Make Him Shout
der Their Misdeeds.

htE AhtAI NAAHheeAss
New YORK, Oct. %. The World
prints an interview with John Hoey, ex-
president of the Adams Express com
pany, in which he gives his side of the
famous Sherburne deal, the alleged
reason for his dismissal from the COM
pany Mr.. Hoey said: Il bought some
stock in the Massachusetts, express com
panies. in conjunction with Sherbourne
and Spooner. Taft was the man who
held it and transferred it. The first
batch we bought was sold to William z.
Dinsmore, then president Of the Adams
Express company. Mr.. Dinsmore held
that stock for two years and turned it
over to the Adams. In the mean
time we had secured an op-
ton on the rest of the stock, and
the Adams Express company, through
Mr.. Dinsmore, decided that the company
should own it all. My only sin was vot-
ing as a trustee to buy that stock for the
company. But, mind you, l did not
own a dollar of it. William B. Dins-
more owned it all. l did not sell them
anything / owned. They try to make
out that l engineered deal by which
Sherburne, Spooner, Taft and myself
sold to the company for $3.50, 900 stock
that was worth only $150,000. That Is
false. The stock had been purchased by
President Dinsmore, and by him trans
ferred to the company. 1t had appreei-
ated in value largely after Mr.. Dinsmore
bought it, but it seems good time nov
to jump on me and poor Spooner."
Mr.. Hoay added that he had not
owned any stock in the Adams Express
company for sixteen years, but that was
no reason why he should not faithfully
look after it, A son Of William s.
Dinsmore confirmed Hoey's statement
that his father had owned a batch OF
Massachusetts, express stock, which he
transferred to the Adams Express COM
pany. Sometime later, when his father
was on his death bed, he heard that the
United States Express company was
after the remainder of the stock, and it
was on his advice that the Adam, Ex-
press company bought the rest of the
stock that had been acquired by Messrs
HOey, Spooner and Sherburne,

1t sank to the bottom OF the financial
sea like lead. Last December a Paris
syndicate OF bankers advanced a sum OF
S15,00O,000 on three per cent bonds Mt
46. Their security was in the shape OF u
lien on the government tobacco venue
The accommodation, however, was only
intended to be temporary, and to meet
it the minister of finance persuaded the
cortes in the month OF March to vote
the government a monopoly Of the to-
bacco manufacture and to authorize a
loan of s5o,oO0,0Oo on the strength OF the
resolution. Immediately thereafter
came another crash. Disputes with tho
court Of st. James regarding Portuguese
possessions in Africa crushed out of ex-
istence any lingering hopes that had
been entertained OF relief from English
capital. On the 18th Of May a royal do
cree suspended payment throughout the
kingdom for sixty days to avert the total
collapse of the banking institutions of

GEO. w. PARKER, president and gen.
eral manager Of the st. Louis, Alton Il
Terre Haute railroad, has tackled a diff
fcult problem, indeed, in advocating
profit sharing on railroads as an anti
dote to labor combinations and antag-
onism between the corporations and
their employees. Mr.. Parker truthfully
says: "There is no kind Of business
that is so dependent OF its employees for
success as railroading. Unlike nearly
every other business, the real owners Of
the property seldom participate in it's
active management; they confide it to
others; and the problem is to 50 interest
the latter as to induce them to exercise
that care and diligence that prudent
mon employ in their personal business.
This accomplished, and the result would
at once manifest itself in a large in
crease in net earnings" This is a fair
statement of the problem, but the
greatest difficulty in reaching its solu-
ton lies in the fact that the average
railroad during a series Of years earns
no profits to divide. Until human ma
lure changes, men who invest their
money IN railroads will not be less sell
fish than other men. If they pay profits
to employees when they have a surplus
they will naturally ask the employees to
share losses with them. In this coun-
try, at least, the great majority of rail-
roads are SO affected by climate, failure
of crops and the like, that the business
must always be full of uncertainties.
On short eastern lines, where the pas
senger traffic is great and steady,
it is possible that profit sharing
might be found to work successfully;
but the talk of applying it to u rail
| roads at large is a Utopian dream.

A rumor of a revolution in Portugal
reached the London market yesterday.
Three per cent. bonds sank ia imme-
diately, and the decline in railroad
stocks was still more marked. To the
students of continental politics the con
frmatlon of the rumor will scarcely
come as a surprise. The credit of the
kingdom is at the very lowest ebb.
Portuguese tnanciers have not within
recent years been Of the kind that sets
the world on fire. Their efforts to re-
store the national credit have been puny
enough, and their surroundings have
been of the hardest. 1t is not the east
est of problems to meet an ever increas-
ing Indebtedness with a minimum of
revenue Yet that is precisely the ques-
ton that Portuguese financlers have had
set before them. Any suggestion of an
increase in taxation to meet the increase
in expenditure simply meant the pre-
cipitation of a revolution and the prob
able overthrow of the ~reigning house,
Twenty-Five years ago the national debt
was represented by the respectable fig.
ure of 100000 ZOO. In this present year
of grace, increasing expenditure has
swelled it to a grand total of S70O,0CO,
600. In other words the indebtedness
of the kingdom has been increased from
$87 per capita to S135. Tho natural re
suit has followed. With a practically
stationary revenue during these years
one-half Of the total income of the king
dom is now swallowed up in the pay
ment of interest alone. The n~ationa
assets are not at all reassuring for the
creditors. We do not believe that W,
are exaggeratlng in setting them dow
at sos miles of government railroads
and 7SO miles owned by private individ-
uals, but largely dependent for a con
~tinuance Of their existence upon heavy
subsidies from the authorities. Th'
budget for the present year shows
notable shortage of 100000, and
would be we'll within the mark to f.
the actual deficit at a considerably
larger figure.
Where relief is to come from it is har
to say. Money, it is certain, cannot b
borrowed for national purposes exceI
at r"uinous rates. There are some GU
lying islands and dependencies whic
are supposed to be on the market aftt

vest, and set up a little hereditary kins
dom for himself, with his dad as premie

THE PASSING OF SHERMAN.

The failure of the Ohio republican
convention on Wednesday to pass the
customary resolution recommending
Senator Sherman's reelection, probably
means that the ambitious younger lead
ers of the party have decided to make
the attempt to retire the veteran states
man at the end of his present term.
The press dispatches explain that the
usual resolution OF approval was not
adopted at Mr.. Sherman's own request.
This cannot be taken to mean. that MI.
Sherman will voluntarily retire. He has
never SO expressed himself, and although
well along in years he is in full possess
sion of his faculties and good for many
years of public service yet. The fact is,
Mr.. Sherman was afraid the combina-
ton in the convention was too strong
for him and dared not put his popularity
to the test. He had %premonitions OF
what was coming in the contest over the
election Of delegates in his W town OF
Mansfield. He challenged his enemies
there, by himself standing for a dele
gate, and was successful. In other
places in the state, where the Foster,
Foraker and Mckinley forces were the
stronger, avowed Sherman mon were
shut out of the convention.
So it came that Mr.. Sherman, after
serving the party in the senate for over
a quarter of a century, feared to ask
the convention to declare in favor OF his
reelection.
But it will be passing strange it The
veteran of a score of hard fought cam
paigns surrenders without a strug-
gle his supremacy in the party. 1t is
not the first time that his foes in his
own political household have tried to
down him. Schenck, the bold, brilliant
and aggressive Ohio leader in the house
of representatives, tried conclusions
with the sage of Mansfield at the end OF
his first term in the senate, and was
overthrown after a hard fought canvass,
with q loss of power and prestige.
Foster at one time coveted Mr.. Sher-
mans seat in the senate and was easily
beaten; and now Foraker wants to try
it. With less brains than either Schenck
OF Foster, Foraker has more dash than
either. If he wins it will be rather by
the ]ferceness of the onslaught than by
strategy.
In the campaign that has just opened
Foraker will be- the central figure and
will be found wherever the fight is the
hottest, but when the returns are
counted it will surprise a great many
people if the wary old Won Moltke Of
Ohio republicanism is not master of the
situation, if indeed in the clash of the
factions the democrats do not sweep the
entire field. It is a struggle which will
be watched with interest by the whole
country.

THE report that the New York Re
corder, the new republican daily started
a few months ago, was established in
the interest of Mr.. Blaine seems to be
confirmed by recent %utterances Of that
journal. The number of last Sunday is
accompanied by a handsome photo
graph of the secretary of state.
If the Recorder is to be Blaine's
organ he is to be congratulated, for it is
a strong, vigorous and aggressive news
paper. The Tribune, run by Whitelaw
Reid, one Of Harrison's office holders,
dare not voice true republican senti-
ment; and the Recorder strikes a popu
lar chord in declaring for Blaine fol

who favors that now which he favored

fact that Sir John Macdonald wished

conclusive evidence that the great con
