The report that ex-Secretary Whit
ney, of Mr.. Cleveland's Cabinet, has
been in Washington in consultation
with Senators Hill and Carlisle, Speaker
Crisp and others. has given rise to thu
conjecture that he Is to be compromise
candidate of Cleveland and Hill. While
he has been a friend of Mr.. Cleveland
he has maintained amicable relations
with Tammany, and therefore would be
in position to be Il compromise candi-
date. The moment he is named, how
ever. several papers which are not Re-
publican call attention to the fact that
he is, by marriage at least, connected
with tho Standard Oil Trust, and one of
them recalls the current opinion that
the profits of Mr.. Whitney's bachelor
brother from this huge monopoly fur
nished the sinews for the social cam
paign of the Whitneys when he was
Secretary of the Navy, which added new
features to the extravaganza of WASH
ington life. Still it would be quite char
acteristic of the Democratic leaders,
who are always raising a demagOgic
howl against corporations and mOnopO-
lies, to turn for presidential candidate
to man whose name has for years
been associated with the greatest mo-
nopoly in the country.

THE OUTFLOW OF GOLD.

A London cablegram quotes Secretary
Foster as saying, in a published inter-
view, that the gold shipments now be-
ing made from the United States to Eu-
rope will not have any serious effect
upon the monetary situation in this
country, as the gold can be we'll spared.
1t is to be hoped the Secretary's cheer
full view of The situation will prove to
be correct, but there is some reason to
doubt it. He is in q situation to know,
and his opinion on the subject is en-
titled to weight, and yet there are skilled
fiDanciers who do not share his conf
deDce that the present outflow of gold
does not imply any serious disturbance
of the monetary situation in this coun-
try.
Last spring and summer, when large
shipments of gold from this country to
Europe continued during several months,
nobody felt alarmed, because it was uni
versally believed that when our great
crops began to be marketed the tide
would turn and the gold come back.
The short crops in Europe and the un-
usually large surplus in this country
made this view of the case extremely
probable. 1t was partially verified by
the fact that in the fall and early winter
the tide did turn, and large shipments of
gold were made from Europe to the
United States. This movement contin-
ued for some time, but the amount of
gold that came back was considerably
less than that which mad gone abroad.
Now the tide has turned again, and gold
is going from this country to Europe.
The fact that this has occurred while We
are shipping grain to Europe, and while
large part of last years crop remains
unmarketed, is strange, to say the least.
In healthy condition of monetary af-
fairs, with the balance of trade in our
favor, gold ought to be coming steadily
from Europe to this country, instead of
which 1t is going the other way. 1t may
be true, as Secretary Foster says, that
this will not have any serious effect upon
the monetary situation in this country,
but it would be more satisfactory if he
would explain the movement and give
reasons why it need not be regarded as
alarming.
The weak point in the monetary stu
alton in this country is the com bined ac
emulation of silver by the government
and the issue of 100000 in silver
certificates. There is now outstanding
S772. 100000 in paper money, which is
maintained at par with gold with re-
demption fund of little over S102, 000,-
600. In other words, the treasury re-
serve to maintain gold payments is only
about IA per cent. of the amount of
paper money in circulation, and this
amount is being increased by the issue
of 100000 of silver notes monthly.
This situation seems to afford q sufli-
cient explanation of the present outflow
of gold, and, if it is correct explana-
ton, it should beget alarm instead of
confidence. If things continue on this
line much longer we may wake up some
morning before long and find gold
quoted at a premium, or, putting it
another way, find our paper money be-
low par. The constant diminution of
our gold supply and the steady increase
of the volume of our paper currency
are not healthy signs.

THERE is no Democratic paper in the
State of New York, and certainly none
in New York city, which sees and ex-
presses things as clearly as does the
Brooklyn Eagle. 1t is now engaged in
an effort to get an appreciation of the
situation into the Democratic head, and
in one of q series of editorials along
that line, it says: n
The Eagle. as a Democrat without being
q fool, has steadily insisted that Benjamin
made light of him and by those Democrats
who did not realize that he was proving q
very acceptable man to the general men,
bership of his party. Politics aside. his
administration has been clean and unsensa-
tional. The public business has been we'll
managed by the varions departments. The
appointments to office have neither been
ideal nor offensive. They have averaged
we'll. The notable representation given to
the Democracy In federal Judgeships has
been novel and commendable.
After few observations to the effect
that it is possible for the Democrats TO
beat General Harrison with an able DEM
ocrat on platform of JeffersOnian prin-
ciples, il proceeds:
Nevertheless. those who think that I'M.
der any circumstances Harrison will not
run well and will not make up in general
confidence and respect what he lacks in

really factors of distrust In a long canvass.

Mr.. Williams says all abundant har-
vest in grain, fruits and vegetables has
blessed the Rio Grande valley in the
vicinity of Socorro this year, and timely
rains up and down the valley and in the
mountains toward the west have made
an excellent grass crop. Apples, peaches
and grapes are unusually fine. The best
wheat crop in years is noted also, some
fields yielding ninety bushels to the
acre.
Socorro itself is improving, the fre.clay
works proving home industry of much
interest, as it pays ont from $4,000 to
$1,000 monthly for labor. Three hand.
some brick school houses are now being
erected in the town, and Mr.. Williams
regards this as about as big card as any

forenoon to witness the ceremonies at the
funeral of the archbishop's venerable
colleague and friend, Very Rev. Peter
Eguillon, vicar general, whose summons
to another life came on Thursday last. The
great edifce was packed with sorrow
ing people. Arrayed in sacerdotal robes
Of rich purple and white silk, the body
of the distinguished dead rested on bier
draped in white that stood in the main
aisle, in front Of the grand altar. The
building was appropriately decorated.
Festoons of white and black hung from
the massive stone columns, and just over
the bier was huge mitre in white and
black. The altar was very beautiful. Pom

of San Miguel; Fayet, Of Tome, and some
thirty other members of the clergy,
representing every section of New Mexico.
An eloquent Grafton was made in
Spanish by Father Deraches, and the
funeral Grafton was delivered in English

rhetoric and tender expressions of love
and esteem for the dead vicar brought
tears to the eyes of many and touched :
responsive chord in the bowed dowr
hearts Of all that great audience.

body was lifted, and, amid the chanting
of the prelates and priests, was conveyed
