JAY GOULD'S WILL.

Despite the absence of bequests to
charitable institutions, Jay Gould's
last will and testament is an interest
ing one. Above all it shows desire
to keep the property intact in the
family, and the late 'twizard'' has ex-
hibited his usual sagacity in the steps
he has taken toward this end. He be-
queathes the most to his son, George
J. Gould, whom he speaks of as fol-
lows: "My beloved son, George j.
Gould, having developed a remarka
BILE business ability, and having for
twelve years devoted himself entire
ly to my business and during the past
five years taken charge of all my diff
ficult interests, l hereby fix the value
his services as $5, 1000, ,OOO-" Large sum,
though it is, this is by no means all
that the favorite son receives, for af-
ter making a number of bequests to
other children and relatives, the tes-
tator devices the great balance of his
estate to his six children, the proper
ty to be divided into six equal parts
and invested by the executors and
trustees, who are the four Oldest of
the children mentioned. Thus it will
be seen that not only is all the prop
erty willed to members of the family,
but the trustees who are given charge
of the share of the minor children are
their elder brothers and sister. There
is small chance of will of this kind
being broken. The son George will
be the leading spirit in holding the
property together, but there is reason
to believe that his brothers and sis
ters will aid and abet him.
It is interesting to note that the late
capitalist bequeathes to his namesake
and grandson, Jay Gould, son of
George J. Gould, the sum of $500, 900
to be held in trust for the said grand
son by George ]. Gould, with authori-
ty to apply the same to the support
and education of the said grandson,
and to pay one-fourth of the same to
him at the age of 25, one-fourth at
the age of 80 and the remaining half
at 35, with power to pay the same at
earlier periods, in the discretion of
his father.''

BRITISH BULLDOGLSM.


1t is almost certainty that the In
ternational Monetary Conference at
Brussels will prove failure SO far as
practical results are concerned. It is
said that there will be an effort to OBJ
tain from the conference a recon-
mendation to all the commercial ma
tions interested in the silver question.
and especially to the governments
represented, to allow from a year to
eighteen months to elapse before tax
ing any active measures looking to a
change of the present currency policy.
The threatened failure of the con-
ference greatly irritates the bimetal-
lie delegates, and they do not mince
their words of condemnation regard
ing the double dealing conduct of the
British members. The result, so far
as these delegates are concerned.
should occasion no surprise, as it was
publicly announced before the open
ing of the conference, that the Eng
lish Government had instructed their
representatives. to adopt and pursue
obstructive tactics, and to secure, if
possible, an abrupt adjournment.
In pursuance of these instructions.
the British delegates have manifested

CONGRESS-.

Slow progress is made in the work
before congress. In the House on
the 18th inst. Mr.. Brosius, of Penn.
introduced for the reference a bill to
provide for the Improvement of the
federal quarantine service, and for
the temporary suspension of immi-
grafton. It empowers the secretary
of the treasury to establish federal
quarantine stations at Portland, Me-,
Boston, New York Philadelphia and
Baltimore and to put them in condi-
ton to prevent the Introduction of
stations shall be under the control of
the marine hospital service. The sec
retary of the treasury is authorized
to select plans for the erection of
quarantine buildings. 1t is further
provided, "that for the security Of the
people of these United States against
the introduction of Asiatic cholera, all
immigration from European and Asi-
attic countries shall be suspended for
one year from the passage of this act"

propriated to carry out the provisions
of the measure.
A bill was passed to ratify and con-
firm an agreement with the Kickapoo
Indians to Oklahoma territory. Mr..
Holman of Indiana moved that when
the House adjourned Thursday it
should be to meet on Saturday. The
motion was agreed to and the House
then adjourned till Saturday.
Senator PETER of Kansas said with
regard to the pending Cullom bill to
amend the interstate commerce act,
that it was framed to achieve the very
thing that the interstate act was in
tended to prevent, which was pool
ing. The bill, he said, was marked
"Intr reduced by request and he init
mated that it was done at the request
of the railroad men. Under it's terms
the people would surrender the con-
troll they now hold over the roads, land
the latter would once more be author
lied to make and maintain any rates
they chose to fix. Altogether Sena-
tor Puffer regards the bill as a most
dangerous measure, and announces
his purpose to fight it at all points.

The measure of retaliation against
Canada in return for that country's
determinations against our vessels in
the Welland Canal went into effect
September 1. Tolls have been levied,
chiefly by the collector at Marquette,
Mich, on Canadian goods passing
through the Sault ST. Marie, and nav
igation is now closed for the season.
The total amount collected under the
proclamation aggregates about $32,
500. The measure has proved of
much annoyance to those Canadians
affected by it, and such is the intent
of retaliatory measures, and if, as
President Harrison suggests in his
message, the privilege be withdrawn
from Canadian railroads of trans
porting goods in bond across Ameri-
can territory, our northern cousins
may learn that it is not only dishon
est to disregard treaty obligations, but
that it does not pay in dollars and
cents.-MdiL and Express.

Democratic organs are now shout
ing for the restoration of the sugar
duties and the repeal of the bounties.
Every housewife knows what a reduc-
ton in price has followed the enact
ment of the free sugar clause in the
republican tariff law. Restoration of
the duties means restoration of the
the old price. Aside from this, how
ever, the sugar clause was framed so
as to make it the basis of negotiation
for reciprocity with the South Amer
lean countries and Cuba, and if that is
taken away the whole structure nee
essarily falls to the ground.
Is the country to understand, then,
that the democratic party is against
the reciprocal trade relations that
have already brought us such good
results? This is the greatest sugar
consuming nation in the world. To
get into this market the sugar pro-
ducing countries have opened their
ports to our merchant and farmers.
Are we now to throw away this ad

One of the most important gather
ings of the year is the international
Monetary Conference now being held
at Brussels. Nearly all the leading
nations are represented. An effort is
being made to settle the silver ques
ton, which is rapidly becoming the
most important financial problem of
the century. The price Of silver is
steadily falling, and unless something
is soon done, there will be financial
panic among the countries having a
silver currency. In India, already,
the distrust is SO great that all the
gold is boarded and only silver is in
circulation. AS all imports must be
paid for in gold and there is no gold
in circulation or to be had, the result
is certain bankruptcy. Bankruptcy
in India is sure to seriously affect Eng
land, the leading monetary nation of
the world, and thus cause world wide
disaster. Few nations are more vi
tally interested in the silver question
than we are; for, while we have both
gold and silver, the latter predomin-
ates, and is the currency in the hands
of the people.
