According to the report Of the Super
intsndent Of the Mint, Preston, the
United States Government made out OF
silver miners between July 4, 1880. and
Nov. 2. 1893. 500, OIL. 345. That is il
got the silver at a discount Of over 80
per cent for the whole time. The silver
miners can stand that, but what about
the cotton and whes. ~raisers aud the
iron miners and the wooden aud cotton
~spinners and all Of the other productive
industries! They lost infinitely more
than did the silver miners. The exports
Of our country for the last three years,
represented by the figures. give only 20
per cen Of the real value Of all articles
exported. The amount in round numbers
i5 50, 500, 600, 900. II that is only 20 per
cent. then on those exports for three
years the country lost q round billion Of
dollars. IL is a most marvellous thing
that the people Of the United States
will not comprehend that fact and see
where they are steadily robbed by the
infamous legislation which keeps silver
from being perfect money Of ultimate re-
demption. The difference to-day would
pay the three thousand million OF dollars
which we owe to England in ten years.
As it is, we are RAINING behind q hun
bred million dollars a year. 1t is some
thing horrible that one little city like
New York can thus place q republic like
this at perpetual disadvantage, and make
it's toilers work without reward. Ii is o
shameful state Of affairs, and the most
astonishing feature is that tine people Of
the United States do not rise up In Q
body and demand the redress which
would come in q bill Of a dozen lines in
length. 1t is clear that by breaking
down half our money and putting all the
debt paying power ON gold, that in the
twenty years since that rule was estsb'
lished our nation has lost three times as
much in property values as the great war
of the rebellion cost. The drain is still
going On; enterprise is dead all over the
country. People who have money dare
not invest il. and those who have invest.
ments see them shrinking all the time
under the accursed juggerDaut, and yet
the President of the United States and
the Congress of the United States sit
by. waiting only to see what com.

At the banquet OF the New fork
Chamber OF Commerce one night recently
Secretary Carlisle said that be had never
been able to understand what is meant by
q double standard. The bimetsllists can
give Mr.. Carlisle the facts showing the
long prevalence Of bimetallism under
varying rates Of production Of gold and
silver, in the absence Of hostile legisla-
ton. II MIR. Carlisle cannot see and I'M
derstsnd those facts the fault is with
him, and not with them. This admins.
tration indeed has shown q plentiful lack
of understanding in connection with
many important public questions, but
more especially the silver question. as
the results Of future operations against
that metal will sorrowfully prove.

THE NEW TARIFF BILL.

The long-!ooked-for Tariff bill has beer
given out. It's provisions ful6ll every
expectation Of those who predicted that
it would be a measure Of radical re-
form. According TO the accounts in the
press dispatches IL is in many respects a
surprise even to Democrats, as it Is un
p~recedented in many provisions. 1t is
said that the free liss is Of liberal
scope, sufficient TO satisfy the most rad
ical advocates OF reform. and the repu-
diation Of the principle Of reciprocity is
decisive and emphatic. II is claimed
that this bill will, il passed, neces-
state the readjustment Of treaties with
the South American countries, which
enjoy practical or theoretical reciproc.
ity with the United States. The bounty
on sugar, instead Of being repealed at
once, will be repealed by easy Rrada-
tious, and will not reach its full effect
till after the close Of the present cen
fury. Among the number OF articles on
the free list are copper ores and pig
copper. Nickel is free. lead ore is only
Is per cent, pig lead l cent per pound;
silver lead ores are free. unmanufac-
tured lumber is free; manufactured, 25
per cent. Raw sugar is left untouched
at present. Barley is reduced from 30
cents per bushel to 20 per cent, or
about IL cents. All wool or hair Of
the camel or goat is free, as we'll as all
wool and hair on the skins, and all waste
rags composed wholly OF 10 part OF
wool. 1t is claimed by the
author of the bill that it will reduce
the revenues on the basis OF importa.
tions Of 1891 about so millions with an
immensely larger decrease Of tax bur-
dens to the American people.
When the bill is fully brought out. il
will afford much food for debate. 1t
10 almost certain it will never pass in its
present form. and the people will be
treated again to acquisitions on the
tariff until they have a s%urfeit. The
fight over the repeal bill was as MOTH
ing in comparison to what q rumpus
the Tariff bill will raise in Congress
when that body gets to work in earn
eat on the measure.

rrsE nornscuIL.Ds.

The founder Of the great financial
power Of the world, Meyer Anslem
Rothschild. was born in a place known
as the jews Alley in Frankfort on the.
Main in the year l743. and was educated
TO be 4 rabbi Of the Jewish faith, which
profession he followed for a time. The
rise Of Napoleon the FRS. in France, as
strange as it may seem. first brought out
this great factor in the worlds finances.
The city and province Of Frankfort was
among the first objects Of attention by
the French Republican army, and the
Senate OF that city had to cast around
for a suitable person to obtain a loan for
it 10 order to make a proper defense
against the French. Their choice fell
| upon Rabbi Meyer Anslem. who was in
innate with the Landgrave (sfterward
e~lector) Of Hesse Cassel. who made i'm
mense sums by hiring out his Hessian sol.
diers to England. and in the war Of the
American Revolution especially. This
loan he had no difficulty in obtaining
upon promise made by the city OF Frank
furt Of a suitable rate Of interest. This
act, Of course, was considered hostile by
Napoleon, and after the battle OF Jena he
declared the forfeiture OF the Lsngrsve's
estates and sent a French army to en-
force his edict. This step Of Napoleon
at once caused the Landgrave to cast
around for a suitable place to secret his
vast amount Of silver her valued at
5 5000. 900. Having no place Of safety
for it himself. and being intensely hostile
to the French, he sent for his old friend
the Jewish rabbi to assist him, and Of
fered him the free use Of all this great
sun Of silver provided he would convey
il to a place of safety. Here was Roths-
child's golden or rather silver opportu-
nifty, and he lost no time in arranging
with his Jewish parishioners for the
secretion Of the treasure. The French
came but the silver had disappeared, and
the foundation of the future fortune and
control Of the worlds finances was laid
in the profit OF the hiding Of this silver
money. At this time Rothschild had
1--WE sons, three Of whom were grown,
namely: Anslem. Nathan and Solomon,
whom he associated with himself and
opened in Frankfurt the business Of
banking.
Within the lifetime of this Jewish
rabbi he saw securely established as the
monarch Of finance, all OF his five sons,
namely: Anslem, Jr., in Frankfurt,
Nathan in London, Solomon 10 Vienna,
James in Paris and Charles in Naples,
all united in a copsrtnership. the wealth.
lest OF this or any other age Of the
known history OF the world. Each
house possessed an eagles eye for the
main chance, and it is reported Of Nathan
that he made at least 81. 900, coo by OBJ
tanning knowledge Of the result Of the
battle of Waterloo several hours before
the British Government itself OBJ
tanned it.

MORE OF DUNBAR'S SCHEMES
The Post Office Department Getting
Further Information.
How He Worked. Pennsylvania state
Omctals - Engraving Company
Out OF Pocket Through Him.

Whitman Dunbar, the alleged fraudulent
publisher and compiler, was arraigned yes
terday before Judge Butler in the United
States court at Philadelphia. and remanded
to jail In default of bail. With his attor-
neys, he came before Judge Butler to have
his bail reduced. Post Office Inspectors
King and Arlington, who have worked up
the case against Dunbar, took the stand
and sought to have the bail increased. 1t
was accordingly raised from $500 to 81, OO0
1t is understood that he is making vigorous
efforts to secure bail. If the bond is not
furnished he will be brought to Washing
ton. as the offenses charged against Dunbar
were committed here.
Yesterday Inspector King brought to light
another Of the schemes for which Mr.. Dun
bar has grown notorious. lie sent letters
to all the members Of the Pennsylvania
state senate. assembly. judiciary. state COM
missions. county and city officials. request
ing them to send a photograph from which
a copper plate engraving. could be made to
accompany their biographical sketch to be
printed in the Pennsylvania official state
history. and to pay $16.75, the cost, as the
letters said, Of the copper plate.
dunbar In this Sceme it Is said, must
have counted his victims by the nunired.
The cuts cost him about $50 apiece. There
was good profit on them. The state his
tory has not been published.
This morning Postmaster General Bissell
received letter from H. A Jackson. vice
president and general manager of the Photo
Engraving Company of New York. stating
that in 1889 w. Dunbar and Company of
Washington had secured $l4i worth of cuts
from that company, and had made a de-
posit of $50. The balance had never been
paid. The letter stated that Dunbar had
sold these cuts at increa. rates. Mr..
jackson said that he had positive knowl-
edge that several other engraving concerns
had been swindled by Dunbar in the same
way. The letter was referred to Inspector
King.
Dunbar began operations in Washington
in February, 1889. About nine years ago he
operated in Buffalo. N. Y. and remained
there about two years, at the corner of
Seneca and Main streets. He was then ell
gagged in publishing hotel directories. After
leaving Buffalo he went to Chicago, and did
business in the Rookery building, corner
La Sale and Adams streets. He also did
business at No. 16l La Sale street. He fail
ed there and came to Washington. While
here his corresponding clerk was II. A.
Kearney who had been in Dunbar's en-
ploy since April 1890. Miss Fallen and Miss
Altimus were also employed with MIN.
From November. 1889. to March, $780, he was
absent. He secured the services Of Mr..
Kearney at San Francisco while he dun
BARI was visiting Communicates.
1t is likely that some other OF his schemes
will be unearthed.
