PRESIDENT ANDREWS ON MONEY
Before Leaving for Europe He Talks
to a New York ReDorter.

President f. Benjamin Andrews of
Brown University is member Of the L.
S. delegation to the International None
tary Conference. He sailed Saturday
from New York on the steamer Aller for
Bremen. When questioned by a reporter
of the Commercial Advertiser AS To the
probable effect of Mr.. Cleveland's cleo
tion on the deliberations of the confer.
ence. DR.. Andrews said:
II do not think the result OF the cleo
tion will affect the conference in he least.
IF Mr.. Cleveland favored free silver,
then his election, / believe, would GER
tainly have an effect upon the forthcom-
ihg deliberations, but as that is not the
case, think there will b. 10 differei ce
made.
III the United States" he said, "would
situation would be relieved for the next
thirty or forty years, and England would
be entirely satisfied. But hardly think
the United States wishes o act AS n cats
paw 60 drag chestnuts out Of the fire for
England or any other country. IL the
present condition Of monetary affairs
continues the United States can stand
it,.
We have at present good system of
national banks, aud, il necessary, we
could issue greenbacks to relieve the
situation. Our people are used to paper
money. and so. on the whole. IL bi-
metallic league is not formed. we can
stand it far better than England or any
other country.
Gold is becoming scarce. In few
years there will hardly be enough yield
FOR the arts, much less for money, and
geologists tell us that there is no more
gold to be found in the world One
third OF the gold now found is ia Siberia
and South Africa
These are the only countries that pro-
duce more gold than they can use. In
this country we produce barely enough
for the demand. The sooner bi- meta allie
league is adopted the better"

The allegation that this government
contemplates the establishment of
protectorate over the Hawaiian Islands
meets prompt denial at Washington,
which is assuring, II would seem to he
an enterprise entirely foreign to the
spirit and structure of this government
to extend its jurisdiction over another
nation, however weak and insignificant.
If these islands are worth having as a
part of the United States, they should
be annexed. If they are not worth hav-
ing they should be left entirely alone.

SEVERAL handsome new business
blocks and great many fine residences
and comfortable cottages We're built in
the city during the past year. Much of
the Improvement is due to the policy of
the city in putting the streets and
sewers into srch shape that people are
encouraged to build. Let public inn
provements continue, especially in those
sections of the city which, like Charles
street, are becoming a menace to health.
Good streets make good houses possible.

1T is gratifying to note that the
officers of the New York, New Haven

Saturday. Had they been superseded
by new officials and had those officials
been as slow TO comprehend the ter

city as the present officers have been, il

A WESTERN city once elected a man
mayor because he weighed more than
any other man IN the place, and his ad-
herents said that people would talk
about it and advertise the city. The
city got advertising which it didn't
want when the mayor was the cause of
serious financial losses. If the same
idea prevailed in this country on Nov. s
II may turn out the same way.

TWO WRECKS.
A Number Of Freight Cars De-
moIished Sunday.

Two first class train wrecks at the
same depot in twenty-four hours do not
often occur, though that was the ex-
perience in Salem Sunday The first
occurred at o'clock in the morning and
was caused by n freight train having be-
come uncoupled some distance up the
road. Whilst the front portion of the
train was preparing to shift just fly
feet to the east of the freight depot, the
portion which had broken loose came
laundering along, smashing into the
train and piling five cars of coke and
coal in great heap on the tracks. The
wrecking train soon arrived from Roa-
noke and spent the day clearing away
the debris.
About : p. m. it was pulling out for
Roanoke with some of the cars of the
wrecked train when one jumped the
switch and tore up the track for few
yards. This delayed Nos. and ~ pas
senger trains for short time, but be-
fore midnight trains were passing
through smoothly. Fortunately no one
was hurt in either accident.
