MASCOT IS KING.
He Lowers the Pacing Record for
Pimlico Track.

Pimlico Track.
BALTIMORE, Oct. 3.-Mascot today
proved that he is still the champion of
PAGERS. All signs of his recent indispo-
sition have disappeared, and the gelding
broke the Pimlico track record made by
himself last year.
The free-for-alI race, in which Mas
cot and Saladin We're entered, was the
feature of the first days meeting of the
Pimlico Driving club. The weather
was fair, and nearly 1000 people were
on the grounds. There had been a
number of entries. though only four
horses masterialiZed for the great race.
They were Mascot, Saladin, VItello and
Dallas. The last two were not thought
to be in the race by the knowing ones,
and the betting was chiefly as to the
chances of the two first horses. Mas
cot was the fayorlte against the field at
p to l. In the first heat Mascot, with
oct being pushed, won i'll 2:1O. In the
second heat Saladin worried the cham
plon at the start, but broke near the
finish and the geldlng won easily in
2:O915. The third heat was the best.
and had not Saladin gone into the air a
second time at the last furlong, his
chances for winning the heat would
have been good. As it was. the gelding
won in 2:09. breaking the track record
or 2:O915, made by himself last year.

any other time the loss would have

thousand dollars. Divide being the
point where all express matter for the
mining camp of Cripple Creek is trans

window near where the agent and his
assistant keep their Winchesters. Once
inside, the express agent and his
assistant were at the mercy of the rob-
bers. They even opened the safe for
the two men to pilfer. After helping
themselves they then made their escape

A GOLD-BOND ISSUE.

Washington correspondents insist that
Secretary Carlisle is preparing to issue
gold bonds. 1t is extremely improbable,
however. that bonds will be issued until
the silver-purchasing clause In the Sher-
man act is repealed. The authority of the
treasury TO issue bonds is subject to the
act of 1873. which makes all bonds payable
in coin. The fact that the Government
has not availed itself of the option does
not imply that 1t never may. While the
United States treasury is coming silver, or
purchasing silver that may be ordered
coined by Congress. the dollars so coined
are legal tender for the payment Of all
debts. If the silver-purchasing clause of
the Sherman act should be repealed, and
if it should be held that the Bland-Ailison
act was not revived by the repeal of the
Sherman act, bonds issued after the date
of repeal would be payable in gold. 1t
would then be held that such bonds were
issued under the act OF 1878, which made
gold the unit of value. The repeal of the
Sherman act would also limit the amount
of silver that might be coined aud remove
any possible danger of resort to silver
payments. 1t is plain that the country is
rapidly drifting to the single gold standard.
How long it will remain there depends
upon the people. Gold and silver will
still be the money of the constitution.

TWO PARTIES TO THIS SUIT.

Unless the people of California are a
more patient people than we take them to
be there will be two parties TO this suit to
quiet title to the Oakland water front.
The Southern Pacific has often gone into
a political campaign with line attached
70 conventions of both parties leading to
the Southern Pacific corral. It has also
gone into court with the lawyers on both
sides making good time for the same
corral over different trails. But things
have changed within the past year or two.
The idea has gained possession Of politi-
clans that promotion is possible without
the aid of Southern Pacific influence, and
lawyers have ceased to regard the favor of
that company as The chief essential to
success in their profession. The real pur-
port of the Chicago waterfront decision
is that no individual or combination of in
.dividuais shall acquire title to land,
whether under water or not, which may
be so used as TO obstrpcr the right of way
from The mainland to the sea. That unob-
structed right of way is the essential point
of the decision. Whether a corporation
undertakes TO make a stand on dry land
as the Southern Pacific did a few weeks
ago, or whether it uses piles to reach land
under water. as it is doing to-day, makes
no difference. The essential thing is that
it shall net acquire any especial right to be
In the way. AS we have said, there will
be two parties TO this suit. On the decision
are involved tens of millions of dollars or
more. 1t is the people of the State, and
especially the people of Alameda County,
against the Southern Pacific. The Ken
lucky company is trying to block up the
right of way from Alameda to the sea- If
1t succeeds it will be in a position to levy
toll on every pound of produce Alameda
may send to market out of its own limits
The case as it stands is not In a satisfac-
tory condition. There is evidence of con-
ference between the State and the COM
pany. The State has acted as if its move-
ments were suggested by the Kentucky
corporation. In fact it is question if al
the present time there is more than one
party to the suit. But before the end
comes there will be two.
The morning call., 1893-10-10
FREE COINAGE OF AMERICAN
SILVER.

Discussing Senator Cameron's silver
plan, which was briefly referred to few
days since in THE CALL, an Eastern con-
temporary says:
1t is we'll to understand at the outset that
free coinage OF the American silver product
would bring as swift and as complete disaster
as would come to US II we threw our minis wide
open to The world.
The amount of silver bullion authorized
by the Sherman act was fixed with the OBJ.
iect of making a market for all the Ameri-
can silver that was not required in the arts.
Free coinage of American silver would
mean conversion of this silver, whether
little more or less than $4,000, coo ounces
each year, into coin. At 129 cents an
ounce, the ratio value of silver to gold,
there would be about 100000 silver
dollars turned out each year. The Came.
ron proposition is to maintain these silver
dollars at their face value. The treasury
would continue to receive them as now for
all dues. Treasury notes payable in coin
might be issued against them. They would
in fact add $40, 600. 900 year to the metal
lie basis Of currency. The Cam eron plan
includes power TO purchase gold if neces-
sary to keep up the gold supply in the
treasury. and even 10 lay in stock of gold
for emergencies. Now, we do not know
that this plan is the best way out of our
financial fix that can be devised, but it
certainly does not seem as if the MAN.
tepance of gold and silver at parity under
it is possible. There is evidence on every
hand that the demand for an exclusive
gold currency Is based upon a purpose 10
increase the purchasing power of money.
Every proposition looking to the use of
silver except as subsidiary money is met
with contempiuous treatment on the as
sumption that it is a proposition to cheat
creditors by paying debts in cheaper cur
rency than prevailed at the time the debts
were contracted. There is prospect that
time Is coming when the gold men will
not be allowed to charge advocates Of the
double standard with dishonest motives.
