There is man in Lynn who, weary
of driving out in the common, everyday
manner, has fitted up carriage with a
small engine and boiler so that in future
he can make his little excursions into the
power of steam. The outfit does not
differ in appearance from an ordinary
carriage, except that the wheels are OF
bicycle make, with rubber tires, and that
there is no place in front for horse;
just behind the seat is a 100-pound
"porcupine" boiler, and a little upright
engine, 2 by 4, which has 4inch
stroke. A cylinder contains supply of
naphtha sufficient to keep up steam of
seven hours, and the water is supplied
from little ten-gallon tank. By means
of simple crank wheel on the foot
board, the operator can steer and attend
to the engine at the same time. On the
trial trip, Mr.. Simonds, the inventor, ran

The announcement that the French
will occupy part of Siam and that the
English are satisfied with the establish
ment of neutral zone between the
French and Burmese boundaries, proba-
bly, all but settles the trouble in the East
for time. China is a doubtful quantity
in the settlement, but the IFrench would
perhaps welcome dissatisfaction from
Pekin. Another march to Pekin would
delight the whole French nation inn
mensely. There is a notable similarity
between the occupation of Egypt by the
English to guarantee to English bond
holders the safety tof their investments,
and the occupation of piece of Siamese
territory to guarantee that the French
will realize the concessions made by
Siam.

agreement would have expired by limi-

agreement would have expired by limi-
tation in 1891, but for the understanding
that it was tacitly to be continued in
force from year to year thereafter unless
notice of withdrawal from the union
were given. 1t is clear that dissolution
of the union would imply conviction
that double standards and free silver
coinage are internationally impossible.
The instant effect of dissolution would
be still further depreciation of silver
in the world and additional damage to
countries maintaining silver coinage
Whether the Latin union survives for
few years or not, further depreciation OF
silver seems inevitable, and that fact
alone is likely sooner or later to- bring
down the union.

New YORK commercial Bulletln.J
In times of financial or commercial
decentralization the thing above all others
impossible is a fair and cool estimate of
the deranged conditions. Unreasoning
distrust and unmitigated selfishness
control the situation. Every unfavorable
factor is magnifed and every favorable
one is minimized. Men of heretofore
sober and courageous Judgment fall a prey
to their fears; men of impulse become
virtual maniacs, lured by will-o'-the-
wisps and Mortified by nightmares. The
danger of crisis never. arises from the
actual conditions losing their heads. Be-
cause small number of insolvent mer-
chants OF spectators have run the length
of their rope and must forwith settle up
therefore every body ceases to trust any
body and rushes to claim his own, which
means general winding up of credits
and more or less suspension of business
throughout the community. Nobody
would pretend to characterize all this
sort of thing as anything short of
species of insanity; and yet, in spite OF
this consciousness of the utter irrational-
ity of panic, no one seems capable of rat
ional self-control. The explanation of
this anomaly seems to be that the in
stincts to which men surrender them
selves in these periods become inSanltleS
when allowed unfettered action. Fear
and selfshness have a valuable function
when kept within due limits; but unre-
strained they become most dangerous
stimuli of social disorganization. The
two interact upon each. other, and NUT
ually infame one another. The fear of
loss incites the selfish desire to collect
ones own, no matter who may have bor-
rowed it nor what the borrower may
suffer from it's withdrawal. In turn, the
effect of this violent process of compel
ling liquidation is to intensity fear
through the consequent disorganization

A large per cent OF the banks that
have suspended show costs in excess of
liabilities. The difficulty has been that
a large number of the depositors wanted
their money at the same time, and the
bank was not able to convert their assets
into cash quickly enough to meet their
demands. There is hardly bank in ex-
istance which would be able to meet the
demand of the great majority of its de-
positors for their money if made with
out notice and at the same time. Ev-
erybody who puts money in savings
bank understands perfectly well that
though ordinarily he can have it on call,
in case of panic which sends great
many depositors to the bank at the same
time, he is liable to have to wait for it.
But the mere fact that he may have to
wait for it should give him no uneasi-
ness. 1t does not indicate that the bank
is unable to pay its debts. 1t simply
means that time is needed to convert its
bonds and stocks and real estate in
which it has invested the depositor's
money, into cash.

The coinage of silver would benefit the
producers of silver, no doubt, for it
would create permanent market for all
their product. 1t would benefit them
just as the engagement of the govern
ment to buy all the wheat that might be
offered to it wonld benefit the wheat
raisers. But it would benefit nobody
else. In very short time after the gov
eminent had begun the free coinage of
silver our currency would be on silver
basis. The cheaper coin always drives
out the dearer, and therefore silver would
drive out gold. Instead of bimetalism
we should have silver monometalism.
We should be the only civilized country
in the world on silver basis, and the
result would be that our securities
would no longer find purchasers in Eu-
rope. Very soon the purchasing power
of the silver dollar would fall, causing
great Losses, especially to the laboring
classes From the standpoint of the
bimetalist who is sane the very W orst
thing that could happen for his theory
would be the free coinage of silver. 1t
may be possible in conjunction with 9th
er nations to keep gold and silver circu-
lating side by side, which is the desire of
the bimetalist. Alone and single
handed, it is impossible, and it would be
sheer folly to attempt it.
The Portland daily press., 1893-08-04

The silver convention repeated the an
cient falsehood that the characterization
of silver in 1878 was brought about
stealthily. The utter falsity of this
statement has been proved over and
over again. Very few bills have been SO
long considered and SO thoroughly dis
cussed as the act of 1873 But the silver
men have made up their minds to treat
that act as trick, and no amount of evil
dence makes any impression upon them.
1t is not pleasant to change large body
of ordinarily respectable men with wilful
falsehood, but this is the only word that
fits their case.
The Portland daily press., 1893-08-04

The large attendance at the silver con.
vention and the earnestness of the dele
gates show that the opposition to the
unconditional repeal af the Sherman act
will be very bitter and persistent. With
the rules as in the last Congress there
will be little chance to get repeal bill
through the House, for its opponents can
easily devise ways of obstructing it which
cannot be overcome unless the rules are
changed at the outset so as to give the
majority complete control of the bust
ness of the House. But even with the
rules changed the chances of the passage
of repeal bill are not very bright. The
Senate has to be reckoned with, and
there is little prospect that that body
will adopt any rule to limit [debate even
Several months of hard fighting are in
prospect with the result much in doubt.

Rather Early to Talk of 90.

Although Mr.. Cleveland has not yet been
iusugurated. there is considerable talk Of
Senator Carlisle as the democratic candi-
date for President in 1896. Editor Waiter
son, Of the COurier-JOurudl, says: "If
Mr.. Carlisle administers the treasury
as the country has reason to expect
he will, no power on earth could keep him
out OF the presidency il he wants it. be-
lieve he can harmonic the many divergent
economic views OF his party as can no other
man, and will give a greater measure Of
satisfaction to the delicate and sensitive
business elements aud interests of the ma
tion.p
II Mr.. Carlisle should accept the treasury
portfolio 1t would be time enough to dis
cuss his availability as q presidential candi-
date two years hence. 1t can be safely said,
however, that if he should make a success
full Secretary OF the Treasury he would stand
an excellent chance for the presidential
nomination of his party in 1896. There is
no democratic leader who enjoys greater
popularity in bis party. and the whole
country has confidence i'll his fairness and
integrity. When he was speaker of
the House he ruled that body, not
so much by the aggressive use of
the power which his Office gave him as by
winning obedience by the absolute imparti-
atty Of his rulings. His fairness dis
armed opposition. II he should accept the
treasury portfolio there would be very
general feeling that he would endeavor to
do what was best for the interests of the
whole country. He might make mistakes.
but he would not adopt policy that favored
one class or one section Of the country at
the expense OF another. Being guided by
the highest and purest motives the proba-
bilities are that he would be very popular
secretary, aud would occupy a strong
position If he should be candidate to sue.
coed Mr.. Cleveland.
