some that they should largely supply
the place of meat during the hot
weather. Milk is also cheaper now
than at any other season of the year.
Rice is always cheap, nutritious and

make up their mind to substitute them
in considerable degree for meat will find
their profit in a better condition of

THE MONEY PANIC.
Three New York Brokers Go to the Wall.
Other Financial Troubles


NEW YORK. July % Wall street was
prepared for almost anything this morning
after yesterdays three failures, and the
street was decidedly uneasy when business
opened.
The first two failures announced were
those of II. /. Nicholas & Co. OF II Wall
street and John B. Dumont of 10 Wall
street.
The members of the first named firm are
Harry l. Nicholas, John ). Nicholas. Mar
Gus Mayer and Walter c. Taylor. The as
signment was made to William Nelson
Cromwell without preference. The liablli-
ties are reported at 81 .25O,O 600. 1t was said
by a member of the firm that the failure
was due to the stringency in the money
market and the failure of four of their
largest customers to come forward with
margins.
The failure of John B. Dumont of 40
Wall street was also announced. Nostate-
ment of liabilities or assets was given out.
John 5. Durand is the assignee. Mr.. Du-
mont has been member of the exchange
since 1879 and was vice president of the st.

Just what is a policeman's duty as a

Just what is a policeman's duty as
witness at the trial of a person whom he
has arrested is an interesting question at
present. Naturally it seems that after
i policeman arrests an individual and
takes him to prison the officers duty is
done, unless he is called on to give evil
deucc in court. In that case it is his
place to give his testimony neither for
nor against the prisoner, so far as his own
personal feeling goes. He has no more
interest personally in convicting an ar
rested man than the states attorney has.
But in many recent cases, notably that
of Miss Borden, the police seemed de-
termined to prove the individual guilty.
In several instances they have raked up
the persons past record during most of
his life and assured the court that he has
committed other misdemeanors, imply
ing, so to speak, that a man who would
steal horse would certainly also COM
NIT murder. 1t is not right. 1t is not
decent. 1t is the courts business to
prove the prisoner guilty if he is so.
The police have no right to take hand
in trying prisoner.

Schools of Foresty In Europe.


In nothing can the old world teach
the new more effectively than in the care
of forests. Before it was too late Europe
learned that if her woods were all cut
away the rivers and streams would dry
up and the earth would become a barren
waste unfit to raise even sagebrush. So
in time the governments took action.
In Italy the laws are so strict that man
cannot cut down a tree upon his own
farm without permission from the gov
eminent inspector.
Forestry laws of some kind we must
come to i'll America. We must in par
ticular save untouched the wooded
heights around the sources of streams.
Certainly, too, in time we shall have
something which resembles the schools
of forestry in Europe. 1t is matter for
either the state governments, the United
States government, or both, to take in
hand.
Austria-Hungary has a well perfected
system of forest preservation and of
training in the science of forestry.
Thanks to these, % per cent of her area
is still i'll woodland, though this region
has been settled since the beginning of
modern history. Forest supervision in
the empire is under control of the min
lister of agriculture. y whole army of
foresters, professors, guards and in
spectors is under him. They must be
regularly trained for their places, and
when once they are admitted to the serv-
ice promotions follow as in the army.
There are three grades of forestry
schools-primary, middle and a univer-
sity. The would be forester studies
through the whole course in each as if
he were fitting himself for the profess
sion of law in America. In Germany
forestry education is considered so i'm
portaut that 81 years are spent in
the course of study before the stu
dent is considered a competent pro-
fessor of his science. In Italy the for
estry course is three years. The branches

is, that if these islands should pass into
the hands of any other nation, as they
certainly will do if the provisional gov
