They parted at the door.
Dorison followed the old detective
into the street, when he said:
"You have those torn scraps Of paper
safe"
Yes" replied Dorison.
Hold fast to them. Put them in
safe place. The time may come when
they will be Of the utmost value"
On the corner of Broadway and
B!eecker street Cathcart hated and
said:
My visit has turned out better than I
could have expected The captain has
given the case into my hands. Now I've
got 1T, it is question Of time only. No
interference now by blunderers know
the man and how to catch him with
proof"
You know the MANI" said Dorison
surprised.
"Yes, | know the man. That is to
say"-
The old detective stopped suddenly
and attentively regarded man passing
on the other side of the street Without
a word he slipped across, leaving Dori-
son so astounded he could do nothing
but stare after him as he nimbly fol-
lowed the man who had attracted mis-
attention.

WEAVING A THEORY.


Dorison WAS wandering about the Office
of his hotel in an aiInless manner, mex
pressibly bored by his compulsory in
action. When he saw Cathcart his face
lighted mp and he greeted the old man
eTuSiveIy
How long am to remain a prisoner
here| he asked,
NO longer" replied Cathcart. The
shadow has been removed and you are
free to come and go at your will. Come
and dine with me want to talk over
the events OF the day with YOU"
As much pleased as if he had been re-
leased from actual Imprisonment, Dori-
son accompanied the cid detective to a
quiet restaurant in University place,
where they could secure themselves
against interruption. While they dlned
Cathcart detailed to the young man the
occurrences OF the day.
The recital consumed the time of the
dinner When the coffee and cigars
We're brought, Cathcart said:
"Now want to reason aud reason
aloud. If you discover ii flaw in my ar
gument put your finger upon it at once,
else do not interrupt ne Now to be-

in her financial affairs, uecessltating the

ness for the Government to pay 20 cents

added to the circulating medium. Neither
Is 1t clear that free coinage will increase
the circulating medium. There IL every
reason to believe that the moment free
coinage Is q law there will begin q rapid
rntirement OF gold. Europe will ship it's
silver to this country the moment the
Government offers to pay 20 cents more
than its market value. American gold
will cross the Atlantic in exchange.
The retirement of gold means the
withdrawal Of 5000, O0O, 900 from thu cir
culating medium, o loss to the business
OF h country that will be enormous.
but free coinage, as Senator Sherman
says, will mea more than driving gold
iuto retirement. 1t will mean the SUBJ
stitutiOn OF the silver standard for the
gold standard. With all grains of silver
substituted for the rs. 9 grains OF gold,
the present standard, IL means the de-
probation OF the whole circulating me-
dium. for the price Of silver Is not regu-
lated by the value that Congress places
upon 1t, but what It brings in the
markets OF the world, the same as the
price OF wheat Is fixed.
II would seem that the circulating
medium could be increased until 1t is
ample for all business of the country
without going to the hazardous expert
ment Of the Government paying the sill
yer spectators 81. 80 for 81. O5 OF silver.

the following ~cablegram may throw some

lDuNLAP1 sP1CIAL CABLE %DIsPATCHl
LONDON, Feb. "a curious libel case has
Just been before the Law courts In Sweden,
II appears hat = Swedish newspaper
Motatd Posten, accused certain persons OF
high social position, one being the late Gem
eral Director OF Customs and mother the
present Lord Lieutenant of the County OF
Stockholm, with having received subsidies
from the Colder Club amounting to Rl2, 900
for carrying ON q F~ree-T Trade agitation in
their country.
The vi dismissed the libel, the writer
pleading that all the statements we're true,
and claiming that Prince Bismarck had
been able, through the German Embassy In
London. to obtain q copy Of tho clubs Sc
crct accounts, and these accounts fully
bore out the statements that had been
made.
The writer OF the article received his In
formation In such . way that there could be
no question about Its authenticity. and he
further alleged that these secret accounts
would b very soon published In Berlin.

FREE COINAGE.

A E~xplanasion Of WHIST II Really Means.
What does free coinage mean? Simply
this, that the Government agrees to pay
70 the rich silver mine owners Of the
world 81. 20 for every 81. 05 worth OF sill
yer that they mine. What reaso Is
there that the Government should pay 3
premium to silver raen-many Of whom
are already m~illionaires? II the Govern
men pays 81. 80 for $l.05 worth Of silver,
why should it not pay the farmer 81. 20
for every $1.O worth of wheat or corn
that he raises? Under the present coin
age act this profit Of about 20 cents on
the dollar goes to the Government and Is
shared by all the people. II the far
niers should favor full co~inage-that is,
that the Government buy oil the Ameri-
. silver that Is offered and coin II, and
let the profits on such coinage go into
the National Treasury, their position, IL
seems to us, would be much wiser and
much more defensible. The best theory
OF government II that special favors shall
be shown to n0ne-cspecially not to sill
yer g Tho man who owns q silver
mine should not have q Government
guarantee OF IN undue advantage over
the wheat grower, the cattle raiser, or
the coal minor.
The farmers who favor FREQ coinage
do so, no doubt, in the hope of securing
. needed increase In currency But
there arc other ways Of increasing tho

sp0nd satisfactorily, and our duties on
sugar. cOiteo, hides and mOlasses be re-
imposed - TO them, then, and only In
such cAseS, would Brazil reap any advant-
age from the treaty In . larger share of
our trade.
II Ii probablcs therefore, that the
present reciprocity treaty Is only tho
irst step toward opening the ports Of
many other tropical or semi-trOpical
countries to u agricultural and manu-
featured products.
Hut thereE is another important consid-
GRAFTON. The advantages Of this or any
other similar treaty depend upon the
special terms accorded TO this country as
TO the rates Of duty imposed ON Its pro-
ducti0ns. Whenever these or similar
terms are accorded to other nations, our
advantages cease. The question now
SUGGESTS itself: How long will the great
trading and manufacturing nations OF
Europe quietly submit to the diversion
Of their Brazilian trade to the United
6tates7 We do not attach special i'm
portance to the f~avored-nation clause.
But II Is clear that the Brazilian Govern
ricnt must, under oil rules Of intefna-
ton comfy, show valid reasons
for the preference given by this
treaty to exports from the United
6tatas or grant the same privileges to
ail others. Hero, then, Is q puzzle for
time TO solve. We shall follow the de-
velopments under tho new treaty with
great interest. The subject Is worthy
the brilliant statesmen from whose fer
tile brain the scheme Of reciprocity pro-
c0eded. and who, We are confident, will
find the way to remove every obstacle to
its success.
The Importance Of our trade with
Brazil 10 admitted. Iii the year ending
June 30. 1896, 1t amounted to $71, 22i, 1872,
Of which 459, 316, 1856 were exports /
Brazil and I'll, 002, 426 were Imports.
This exceeds the trade Of Brazil with
any other country, and was by far
larger than the business Of any pre-
cedIngN year. The largest trade in
former years was In 1881, when
IL Amounted to nearly S62, 900, 600.
The trade with Great Britain in 1881
amounted 70 $4,000, 900 and in 1888 to
81. OO0, 900.
The chief articles OF import and ex-
port Tor 1850 were IS follows:
