What the Farmers Want.

Mr.. Polk, president of the National
Farmers Alliance, in an interview in At
lanta the other day, said that the farmers
want the volume of the currency increased.
And they don't think that the free coinage
of silver would increase it sufficiently.
They, therefore, want 1t increased in other
ways; but in what other ways Mr.. Polk did
not say. He thinks that if there we're a
greater abundance of currency the farmers
would get better prices for their crops. 1t
may be that Mr.. Polk is right, but as long
as the surplus of our breadstuffs and cotton
is marketed in Europe how could an in
crease in the volume of the currency cause
an increase in the prices of wheat, corn, cot
ton and porkl The prices of these articles
are fixed in Europe, and will continue to be
fixed there as long as our surplus finds a
market there
An increase in the volume of our currency
would not affect the European market.
And if it did not cause an increase in prices
in foreign markets how could it cause an
increase in prices in the home MARKET If
the prices at home should increase in pro-
portion to the increase in the volume of the
home, Mr.. Polk might say. But we cannot
consume all We produce. And an over
stocked market would force prices down
to almost nothing. The surplus of
our productions must go abroad and must
be sold at prices which rule there, and the
prices in foreign markets fix the prices in
the home market,
There is one way in which an in
crease in the volume of currency would
help farmers, and that is to make the in
crease so great that gold would be forced to
premium. The debased currency wouldn't
have the purchasing power that a currency
on par with gold has. but it could be used
to great advantage in the payment of debts
and the interest on debts contracted prior
to the time the currency was increased.
And if money were more abundant it might
be obtained at a lower rate of interest, but
the prices of staple farm products would
not be higher.

just about the time the efforts of the
United States engineers were about to re-
suit in closing the broken levees of the Mis-
sissippi the river begins to fall. This is
fortunate. 1t will give the engineers a
chance to do their work better, and to close
the crevasses in a way that may prove
permanent. Such a condition is very much
to be desired, as the breakages during the
period of high water do incalculable dam
age to the adjacent crops.

Investigation into the mysterious murder
OF the rich widow Barnaby of Boston only
tends to enshroud the occurrence more
deeply in mystery. So many people are
apparently pecunisrily and otherwise inter
ested in the woman's death at Denver, that
it's pretty hard to fix the guilt of poisoning
her upon any of them. But the inquiry
brings to light some very surprising phases
of her peculiar life. At present her physi-
clan seems most likely to prove the guilty
person. But it is a very perplexing case.

An Arkansas man has discovered, after a
very vigorous test of the question, that the
1iveliest sort of mule cannot outrun a
passenger train. He also discovered that
an attempt to run him on the same track
is liable TO create confusion. Still the mule
didn't kick. There was not enough left of
him. When the train overlook him it
simply divided him up and sprinkled him
through the adjoining counties. Likewise
the man. So there is no further danger Of
any more heroic experiments from him. 1t
Is doubtful if his latest experiment can be
considered altogether q success any further
than to show other people that what he
attempted cannot be done. But he will not
get the full benefit of his discovery.

WHAT WILL HE DECIDE ?
SAN BERNARDINO TRUSTEES BE
FORE JUDGE ROSS.
He Is to Decide Whether They Are Guilty
of Contempt-The Motor Road Case in
the District Court.

The motor road contempt proceedings
from San Bernardino which Great ed SO
much interest last summer came up for
hearing before Judge Ross yesterday in
the United States district court, and oc-
cupied the entire day without final
settlement being reached. 1t will be
remembered that Receiver Polk had
been operating the Southern California
motor road for the United States court
for number of months, when the trou-
BILE occurred which has brought several
prominent citizens OF San Bernardino
before the court,
The city trustees attempted to stop
the road from running through certain
streets in San Bernardino, and caused
the arrest by the city marshal of the en-
gineer and crew who were running
train over these streets. They put the
engineer in Jail, and then Receiver Polk
had the trustees cited for contempt. 1t
all happened last July and has been
reached in due course of time for a
hearing. A number of witnesses were
examined during the day. On the part
of the trustees the endeavor was made
to show that they did not know at the
time that the road was still in
the hands of Receiver Polk, and
also that the road was being operated in
violation of the city ordinances, and the
arrests were justitable.
The prosecution, however, insisted
that the city trustees had no authority
to interfere with the operations of the
road, and that their acts were direct
contempt of court; also that the city
ordinance relied upon contains no pen
atty proviso. The courtroom was pretty
well filled by spectators and the parties
interested, and after short arguments
by counsel, Judge Ross announced the
matter Submitted, reserving his de-
cision.
There is considerable interest mani
tested in this matter, both in Los An
geles and San Bernardino, and there
are many speculations as to what Judge
Ross will do. Judging from past de-
cisions in such cases, he is inclined to
have great amount of spinality in up
holding the dignity OF his court.

PETITION DENIED,
Judge Angellotti's Decision in the Don
ahue Estate Case.

Judge Angellotts's Decision in the Dom
ahue Estate Case.
SAN RAFAEL, CAL, Oct. 19.-Judge
Angellotti gave his opinion in the case
of the creditors of the estate OF j. M.
Donahue VS.. the executors of the estate.
The case was on petition from cred
itors asking that the executors be Or
dered to sell sufficient of the property
of the estate to pay the claims allowed
by the court over year ago. Consider
able interest has been manifested in the
proceedings. The opinion briefly is to the
effect that it is the duty of the execu-
tors, under the power of sale contained
in the will, to sell sufficient property of
the estate to pay such debts as have
been duly allowed; that the court,
however, has no jurisdiction to
order the sale of any specific
property except after petition in the
form required by the probate act. In
this case no such order could be made.
The opinion further indicates that
there are two causes open to the cred
itors, in either one of which the court
could, if evidence justified it, make a
valid order; the first being proceedings
for sale conducted in accordance with
the provisions of the code, and the
second being proceedings for the re-
moval of the executors in event they
did not sell, if the evidence showed it to
be their duty and within their power to
sell.
The court further held that any order
it might make, based on the present
proceedings, would be utterly worthless.
The creditors petition was therefore
denied without prejudice to the institu-
tion of new proceedings.

THE SHORE CASE.
The Jury at Last Agree Upon a
Verdict.

The Jury at Last Agree Upon a
Verdict.
After being out from Saturday until
yesterday morning at 10 O'Clock the Jury
in the case of Public Administrator
Field against DR.. A. S. Shorb, to recover
some $27 900 alleged to have been lille
gally obtained by the doctor and his
wife from Daniel Harris, deceased. re-
turned verdict. The verdict knocked
the Shorbs galley-west. and makes it
necessary for them to turn over most of
the money secured by them. The YER
dict was in novel shape, having been
put in the form Of questions for the iurv
to answer. There were about twenty
of these questions, and they had been
framed by attorneys on each side To
cover the issues. Only the parties d.
rectly interested, besides the iurv and
officers of the court were present when
the verdict was announced. The plain-
tiff was required to deposit $3.50 iurv
fees and costa. BY the agreement Of
ten Of the jurors it was decided that
during his last illness, when the Shorbs
got the money, the deceased was OF nm
sound mind and not capable Of man
aging his own interests; also that a
check for $500 given Mrs. Shorb pre-
vious to this illness was free Gift to
her, and should not therefore be in
cluded in the amounts which must be
returned.
1t could not be ascertained yesterday
whether or not the defendants propose
to appeal to the supreme court. In the
meantime the money ia locked up in the
banks. Judge Van Dyke continued the
consideration Of further matters In the
case until October 26th, when judgment
will probably be entered in accordance
with the verdict.
