SCOTT'S SUB-TREASCRY.

The new book of lectures, Scott on the
subject of the sub-treasury plan as en-
dOTScd in the platform of the peoples party
at Cincinnati, is a complete and wonder

and argument. 1t is certain to become the
standard work on that subject Hence
forth no speaker OF editor can afford to dis
cuss this question without first giving this
book careful perusal. Mr.. Scott is the
best qualified man in the states tn present

On August 1, four sailing vessels left
San Francisco for Europe and IL WAS
understood at the time that there would
be n lively race. shipping men were
greatly interested in the race. The
members of the Maritime exchange, ia
this city, were discussing the race and
were iubllent over the victory OF the
ShHnandoah, which they said would give
an Impetus TO American shipbuilding.
The ships engaged In the race were
the Shenandoah, the British ship Strath-

REMRINt;SEA oI.ESTInN.

The pablo Was iaken INTO the conf
denoe OF the diplomatic branch of the
government Ia the continuation of the
hearing before the United States su-
preme court of the case, of the Canadian
sealer w. y. SaywArd, seized for illegal
sealing in Behring sea, and the fret an
nouncement made that the prolonged
diplomatic crisis pending between Score
tary Blaine and Lord Salisbury had res
alted In an agreement by which, with
the consent of the senate, the long pend
ing dispute over the seal fisheries in
Behring sea will be definitely settled.
Solicitor General Taft, who MAS adj
dressing the court, made the iutImatlOn
that correspondence between the TWO
countries had reached the point of an
agreement upon arbitration. Attorney
General Miller, who was present, not
only substAuuated all that Mr. Taft said,
but went further and announced that the
government had affected an agreement.
he said the matter had been settled be-
tween the two governments, subject 10
the ratification by the United States
senste. Further than that lac would moi

SILVER TOTHE FRONT.

The free coinage OF silver question
which Is being agitated so much of late.
seems to De gaining ground. The Lon
dion Financial News in reviewing the
prospects for silver says that. whatever
may he the views of the different nations
on the questions of standards, the idea,
which first found practical expression in
the United States, that there Is not gold
enough In the world to do unaIded the
work Of money, Is steadily gaining adj
herents by the sheer force of events.
Within the last six months Portugal had
20 abandon the attempt to keep the dear
geld In her country. Spain has not yet
gone so far; but the ever-increasIng
quantities of silver which she buys
clearly mark the way in which events are
moving In that country. Argentina has
within the last few days passed law
establishing the free coinage of silver,
which, at some future day, may have i'm
poFtnnt and far-reachlng results. iRussia

OHIO SENATORIAL CONTEST.


The O.'io senatorial contest is beginning
10 attract attention IF the whole United
States. The Denver News III an edi-
torial on the subject says that "the real
fight Is between Sherman and Foraker,
with Secretary Foster as possible com
promise candidate. Sherman represents
the republicans of the old time. being
one of tile few men In public life, If not
the only one, who aided IN organizing
the republican party. His experience as
n statesman no one denies, while has great
ability has reason TO he acknowledged
aud mourned by Colorado from the
sledgc hammer blows he has dealt at the
SILVER cause. He Is the grand gold bug
leader In the senate. Foraker represents
the younger element OF the party. He Is
bright, brilliant and INSCRIPTIONS
placemRu rather than y statesman. He
Is incapable of being true to anything or
anybody, unless they are subservieuJ TO
his purposes. lie would doubtless be as
active an opponent of silver in the senate
us Sherman, although not so Formidable
one, being less of II financIer. His cleo
ton would be triumph of the worst ele-
ments of the party. Sherman represents
the more decent wing of the same.
Foster need hardly be considered. lie
Is a political trickster and two-for-ae
nickel sort uf finaucier, although H.
does occupy the secretaryship of the
treasury.

How they Failed to Discover the
Missing n Marsh.

The whereabouts OF Gideon Marsh, the
d~efaultlng president of the Keystone bank
Of Philadelphia, is as much sought alter
as the whereabouts of the famous Tascott.
The numerous rewards offered for Marsh's
apprehension make q very neat sum and
every detective, amateur detective, sheriff
and United States marshal throughout
the country has his eye peeled in hopes
that he will be the lucky man to stumble
on to the much wanted ex-president of
the bank.
A mention of the reward offered for
Marsh and the fact hat he was supposed
to be coming West was published in the
morning papers a few days ago and since
then all OF the local Hawkshaws and
sleuths have been watching each train in
hopes of seeing a heavy built man with a
bad finger on his right hand. Marsh,
who Is a base ball enthusiast and a good
player, had the misfortune at one time to
encounter a bali bat and was struck on the
end Of the finger and in consequence has a
bad nail on that finger. The aforesaid
finger is what the detectives hope to
identify HIM by and penatrate any
disguise he may be wearing.
A Cheyenne Pinkerton saw a man with
a bad finger nail and at once, with visions
OF. more money than he ever saw before
flashing before his eyes. decided hat he
was the lucky man to locate the missing
Marsh. He knew another local man with
some pretenslons of being a sleuth and
called in his aid and at an c arlY hour yes
terday morning the two took the trail.
The train bearing Marsh. by that time.
was probably close to Rawlins, but still,
nothing daunted, the two thought of
the telegraph wire and at once messages
to the amount of SO worth we're
sent over the line asking if the
suspect was still on the train.
Before the answer was received the two
detectives were struck with the idea that
perhaps after all the suspected mar did
not quite answer in all particulars the des-
cription of Marsh, so as tn make the mat
ter more certain about 5 O'Clock in the
morning a visit was made to Deputy
United States Marshal Cars bed room
to see again the description and picture of
the aforesaid Marsh.
After the consultation with Mr.. Carr,
the hopes OF obtaining the reward became
%iaiuter. and the detectives realized that
there was a string attached to the train,
with their homes tied on the end. The
description OF Marsh tailed with the sus-
pect in some respects, but was not sufi-
GENTLY close to warrant an arrest.

LONDON, July lin an interview
with the secretary of the Russian Bacon
COMPANY, which has recently established
markets in London, Hamburg, Havre and
Barcelona, he stated the company was
confident that it would Gust American
bacon from the European market. Ger
many and France, which dlsiavor the
American article, not only permit but
within their territory. Inc secretary gave
an interesting history of the inception and
growth of the new enterprise, which bids
fair to become SO important. 1t seems
that some time age about twenty expert
workmen were sent by Russia to Chicago,
Omaha and Kansas City, who obtained
employment in the great packing houses
of those cities, and also managed to learn
a good deal about the general status and
methods of the business in America. In
due time these men returned home and
made their report, and upon the strength
OF their representations the govern.
ment proceeded to erect an m
mense factory near Graise, 200
miles from Moscow, alta cost OF Sl5U, 900,
and leased it at a nominal figure to the
company flor twenty-one years. The
government also afforded the company
special railway facilities whereby 1t is
able to deliver its product in London in
ten days at niue pence per 100 weight
less than the freight cost to Chicago.
Deliveries are made in Hamburg in
seven DAYS. The company employs if
teen Irish dressers who receive 60 per
week. A host of other employees, all
Russians, receive but nine pence per
day, so that the cost of labor is much
less than in the American cities. erase
is situated in the ceLter of a peasant
farming country and commands a product
of 5000. 900 hogs Immediately, with
double that number in prospect for the
near future. The company will open
markets in all the important cities of
Europe soon. The companv's bacon is
sCld in the London market today at forty
one shIllings per 100 weight.

New YORK, July ia Chinese leper
has been discovered in au East Side lauu-
dry. He is Chin Hop Sing, and when a
representative of the health authorities
paid him a professional visit he was IN
d~ustrIously ironing a shirt. He has been
a leper eight months, and seven months
OF that time he has spent in washing the
linen Of East Siders. The health official,
after an examination, decided it was a
case of genuine leprosy.
But they say thev cannot take the man
in charge because they AVE no place to
take him. lie came here a year and a
half ago from San Francisco. There, it
is said. he had lived with a leprous friend
until the authorities removed the leper.
Then Hop Sings co%untrymen Stunned
him. After awhile they raised a fund of
5000 to take him back to China. He
took the money but, instead of going
TO China. came to Newark, N. j.,
where he went into partnership
leper. They had trouble after awhile
and Hop Sing came to New York. BY
this time he was in an awful condition.
His head had begun to swell, his ears
we're assuming o proportions, the
nose had reached a remarkable size, and
his hair was dropping out. He vent to
the laundry OF his cousin, Ching En-. to
sIeep until morning. When Ching En-
awoke and saw how Chin Hop Sing
looked he was terror stricken. He would
not stay in the place. believing it infested
already with the fearful disease. He sold
out to the leper for $50. Hop Sing took
possession of the shop Immediately and
went right on with the business.
