told the electric light people that he ha-
much work TO do at night and that he coul
not see veil enough by lamp-light. Lash
week Thomas was missed from his usu We
hauutS and his door was closed. Some
hints that Thomas had dropped induced his
neighbors to break into the house and they
found that he had proved his theory to his
own satisfaction at least. He had con-
structed the most. ingenious apparatus by
which he had utilized the electric light cur
rent and killed himself.
With insulated wires he made the con-
meet rs to an arrangement OF ST 81 rods at
his bed, which were so arranged that when
he laid down one electrode was between
his shoulders and he could then place the
other over the pit of his stomach. In each
electrode was sponge which had evidently
been moistened. He had mad peculiar
switch board. which worked in such man
ner that the light wire could be cut out
and the current DETECTED 10 the apparatus
at the bed. This was accomplished by
pulling cord which hung at the side OF
the bed. When the cord was released the
spring would force the switch back, forcing
the current back into the light.
Thomas had made all his preparations
and then deliberately laid himself upon the
the bed. adjusted the electrodes and pulleu
the cord. Death came in an instant, and he
died without a struggle. Not i. muscle had
twitched to dsarrange the body. The cord
had been released by the dead hand upon
ne instant of the shock, and second con-
tact was not necessary. The strength of
the current was about twelve hundred
volts, showing tina the current through the
pneumogastric nerve requires neither so
heavy nor so prolonged shock as through
the brain and spinal cord. Not mark or
blister was seen on the body 10 indicate

OBSERVATION-DISCLOSURES and Bond.

NEW YORK, July 2S.-The stock market
today displayed a materially better tone on
the whole than yesterday, while prices
the loss of the previous day. There was a
marked decrease in the amount of bust
ness done during the day, and dealings
extended to smaller number of stocks
than yesterday. The apathy of spectators
seems, however, not to have been broken as
yet. and the hopes Of Wall street men that
the dullness had been checked by the de-
cline was not realized to-day.
The market closed dull but fairy
firm at small fractional advances for the
day in the active stocks. Active shares,
however, are nearly all up large fractions

President Polk's Paper Says That CIeve-
land Is Not In the Race.
EX-President Grover Cleveland has
declared against the free coinage of
silver. If, as has been supposed, he
has aspirations for another term in the
white house, he may dismiss them at
once. The farmers of this country will
never vote to elect man to the presi-
dency of the United States who is in
favor of measuring the value of the
country's money by the amount of gold
which can be gotten into circulation in
these states. We are not at all sorry to
see Mr.. Cleveland disappear from the
problem of the presidency in the year
1892. We say this, because we are
sorry to see the state of New York,
with its hordes of corrupt democrats,
dominating the national elections. New
York is the great money center of the
countryside heart of the trusts and
combinations of the country-and
president from that state stands too near
that center to be capable of entering
heartily into public administration
for the good of the entire people. I'm
less we are much mistaken, the Farm
ers' alliance will have something to saw
in naming the next president of the
United States; and it is certain that this
great organization will not name an
anti-silver man. We bid Grover Cleve-
land good-day, with the best wishes for
his future happiness Raleigh On. c.

The People want More Money.

This is no May-day affair or jolly pic
mic. Its gravity and practical impor-
tance is unquestionable. Sixty-five
millions of people cannot live without
a circulating medium, and that is not to
be estimated by what was required for
20,00O,000 or 10000, OOOO To meet this
condition of things we must take into
account the large increase in population
which has occurred in the meantime. A
corresponding increase of money circu-
lation must be issued to meet this ac-
cumulation. That is what's the matt
ter" and no amount of misrepresenta-
ton or equivocation can change or de-
stroy this fact The friends of the sill
yer movement comprehend and appreci-
ate this fact, and therein we find the
animus which moves it along.-Natiop-
