Panics the World Oyer.

The Philadelphia Press says:
"The wave of disaster set in motion
by Baring's failure in 1890 still
continues to break in disaster on
one shore and another. Every Eu-
ropean country is straitened, and
Portugal has collapsed, while Italy
is near bankruptcy. Argentina
and Brazil have had terrible pan
les, and Chile is little better off.
Cape Town and the regions tribu-
tary to it have gone through a
wholesale liquidation. Australia
has had land and banking panic
as severe as any in our own his
tory. Now the treaty ports on the
coast of China are going through a
heavy and long-continued liquida-
ton.
THE blow has been most severe
in Shanghai and Hongkong. The
depreciation, amounting to some
$2O,OOO,OOO or $30,OOO,000 in the
wealth of Shanghai and Hong
kong, says the North China Her
aid, lis not merely a depreciation
in the wealth on paper of some
spectators; it is a depreciation
which has extended to everyone
whose economies have been in
vested in local undertakings. The
banks have been left with paper O
which no one knows the real value
and their shares are in consequence
seriously depressed and do not re
cover. On top of this has come
the heavy fall in silver Th'
banks which took money in golC
in London have loaned it out il
silver, and now find themselves re
paid in a deprecated metal"

OYSTERS AND SEEDS

Are valuable for what's in 'em. Good
aud bad oysters look alike in the shell.
Good and bad seeds often have the same
appearance. Any one can tell worth
less oyster on opening it. The value OF
a seed must be determined by its growth.
This makes its quality worth considering.
You want seeds that will grow, and you
want the product TO be Of value. There
is but one guarantee; the reliability of
the firm from which you buy.

was resumed by the congressional COM
mittee this morning, and Chairman

One Of tho committee said that the
present investigation would do much
10 help the passage OF compulsory ar
bitration Law and also an ant-PinEcr-
{ ton measure, both OF which have al
ready been introduced. Most OF the
committee favor both of these measures,
and tho report which tho committee
will submit will doubtless contain To-
vorable recommendation for both meas
ures. Chairman Oates said: ~ wish
TO correct IN error. It was stated that
this committee was divided on this
question and that there would be mi-
norlty report. Such is not tho case. So
fur as know thero will DO no division
on this question, and We all look on
this matter in the Same way"
Mr.. Taylor added: "Ycs, agree with
our chairman. We arc united on this
question, anu arc here only to ascertain
. the facts in tho case"
General Superintendent Potter was
tho first witness aud TIC testified that
the Homestead mill was different from
othor mills in that the firm hired and
paid the men. There were 10 helpers
hired and paid by the men. BY reason
OF machinery, there Is less responsible
ity TO the men. =,
The witness said the Homestead mill
was the finest in the world and by ren-
son OF improved machinery, tho output
was so per cent greater than any mill IN
the world. The proposed changes in
tho scale were in the minimum selling
price OF biIlets, which was to be S2S. tho
time Of expiration and certain reduc-
tions. The proposed reductions would
average - per cent. The company was
paving more than any company, ana by
reason OF improved machinery the out
nut was increased and the labor less
ened.

"WclI," said MIR. Oates, iii by means
OF improved machinery the company
could make the output for less money,

its :.leeting in st. Louis, June and .,
10 prepare an address to the American
people giving information rs to the
feasibility of the Nicaragua canal and
its commercial and other advantages
to the United States, has just finished
the pre- paration of such address. The
committee is composed of John s.
Jones, OF Arkansas; ex-Congressman
Converse, of Ohio; Il. w. Millsap. the

j. +. Merry, of Manchester. Ia: IL.
Hawkins, the railroad president OF
Georgia; Capt Ambrose Snow. presi-
dent of the New York board OF trade
and transportation, and ex-Gov John
6. Pillsbury, OF Minnesota
The address is supplementary to the
resolutions adopted by the st. Louis
convention, which pointed ont the adj
vantages of the canal and urged its
construction, ownership and control
by the American people rather than
the English, French, or any other ma
tion. 1t takes the position that

oceans. should be constructed for tins
