The Lizzie Borden Jnrr.

ANew Bedford correspondent
writes: aThe twelve men of the
Borden jury, still keeping lock step
after leaving the court room when
discharged and doing it pretty well
after 16 days practice, did an inter-
esting thing. They marched straight
through the town, straight into the
Parker House, and straight up to
the bar. 1t is true that the popu-
lace gathered on the sidewalks and
in the windows and cheered them
as they marched. They did not
notice that. They had sixteen
days thirst on them. 1t is true
that men and women grasped their
hands on the street and asked God
to bless them; but they had no time
for nonsense-they were headed for
the Parker House bar. Little boys
ran ahead of them and lots of other
boys tailed along behind them, but
of this they seemed Obvious They
simply held straight course, and.
with eyes fixed and minds monopo-
Iized by one controlling thought,
they marched along, never hating
till they lined up in front of four
large green bottles. Whether they
took one drink or twenty drinks is
nobody's business. They had earn
ed the right to do as they pleased,
and thay did it. /"

Notwithstanding the constant

Notwithstanding the constant
outgo of gold the Treasury Depart
ment under the provisions of the
Sherman act is compelled to con-
tinue the purchase of silver for
which obligations which are re
deemed in gold are issued. AT the
present price the value of pure sill
yer in a standard dollar is sixty four
and one half cents. From the date
of the passage of the Sherman act
to November 1, 1892, the govern
ment purchased 12O, 479,981 ounces
of silver for which SIG, $50, $50 was
paid, an average 500 Gets per fine
ounce. At the present price OF
silver the government has sustained
a loss on that purchase to November
Il, 1892, of nearly sic, 100000 When
the report of the director of the
mint is made for the current year,
it will doubtless be shown that the
government could duplicate its
present stock of silver for at least
go, 900 900 below the amount actu-
ally expended. That sum represents
the actual commercial loss under
the operations of the Sherman act.

Pension Commissioner Lochren
has issued an order approved by
Secretary Smith with a view of pre-
venting pension frauds. Under the
previous administration it was the
custom of number of pension at
torneys to have printed forms and
all matter therein contained print
ed ready for their clients to swear
to. By this means it is believed
that a large number of applicants
were led to swear to false state
ments and a great many illegal
claims were thus allowed under the
former loose administration of the
pensions bureau. All laudable and
just means to operate the pension
department so as to allow the claims
of only the deserving and a wiping
out of the undeserving claims will
meet the hearty endorsement of the
taxpayers the country over and
the old soldiers as well.

the Prospects.
WASHINGTON, June 27.-Three events
of Monday promise to be of momentous
consequence TO the financial condition
of the country, and particularly to sill
yer. First, cablegrams from Calcutta
announced that the minis of India had
ceased to com the white metal for pri-
vate account: second, the glut of
American silver is so great that the
market price fell to 10 cents, which is
the lowest figure in the history of the
metal; third, it was announced by the
National Silver association that fearing
the advances made by the anti-silver
men they would establish national sill
yer headquarters at Washington, and
from this point direct most extensive
free silver propaganda.
Concerning the radical step taken by
India, it can be said to have been an
ticipated by treasury officials for sew
eral days. 1t is felt that the natural
and necessary effect of this action will
be to further increase the stagnant sup
ply OF silver India has used very
considerable percentage of the world s
supply of silver, this percentage reach
this use has been abandoned, the world S
stock of silver bullion is increased by
that amount.
1t can not be said that treasury Off

of India. as it is believed that the situa-
ton tends to point e1nphatically to the
disastrous effects of the Sherman law.
