"n~ AND GOLD SHIPMENTS.

The Times has correspondent. ''B.."
who Ia wise enough to read The Times
with great attention, and very careful 20
keep US always on the track. We recog-
nize his sagacity In reading all that The
Times says. and are duly grateful for
hts concern In seeing that we never go
wrong. But when he points out 10 us
that we have fallen into error he must
see to II that he leaves nothing In doubt
he must clean up as he goes.
The latest error OF The Times which
3D." has pointed out is It's opinion that
the great shipments OF gold which this
country is making abroad prove that Eu-
ropeans are sending over securities here
for sale for fear lest they may have to
take sixty -five-cent dollar where whole
dollar was promised. In support of this
idea we cite the fact that 1t is customary
for Europe TO be sending gold here at this
season of the year; that the balance Of
trade for the year ending December 81,
1892, was $50. 22l. IA IN our favor, and that
we shipped to Europe during the year
S73. 239, LOG OF specie. The Times thinks
these facts prove conclusively that Eu-
rope is selling us our securities that she
has heretofore bought. "B." thinks. how
ever, that this great sum Of 1885, O,S2O
was consumed in paying interest on our
obligations held abroad. by Americans
travelling in Europe, and in. freight paid
TO owners of foreign vessels for bringing
freight TO America.
II "B" could show that no interest had
been paid on our securities held abroad
until the year 1892, that no Americans had
Travelled abroad until the year 1892 and
that no foreign freight had been brought
TO America until 1892, there would be
great FEASIBILITY in his argument. But
as matter of fact, there is no very mate
rial difference in the amount Of interest
we have paid abroad in any one of the
past ten years; there is no very material
difference In the amount of money
travelling Americans have spent abroad
in any one Of the past ten years, unless
cholera made it in 1892, and there is no
very material difference in the amount
we have paid for foreign freight in any
one of the past ten years SO that these
three items having been about the same
all along. we do not see how they could
very well affect the discussion. We are
compelled, therefore. to adhere to our pre-
viously expressed opinion. that the fact
that gold persistently goes out of the
country when. according to all human
calculation, it should be coming into the
country proves that Europe is selling us
our securities. and we can conceive of no
reason for this but fear that she may be
paid in a deprecated money.

the country loses brilliant. powerful
statesrosn. and the Republican party n
man who has been for years head and
shoulders above any other man in their
party. With all his power of brain and
intellect. however. and Notwithstanding
the prominent part he has taken in the
politics Of the country for the last thirty
years. he died disappointed man. His
highest ambition was 20 reach the Presi-
dency. and although he had the coveted
prize frequently within his grasp, he was
never able TO secure it. Failure after fall
ure to reach the exalted position TO which
he aspired made. in his own estimation,
his whole busy lise failure.

The special Elections Committee Of the
House investigating little John Daven-
port has found him guilty not only Of
interfering with the rights of American
citizens, but Of having been the author IF.
and main lobbyist for. the Force bill.
Davenport's first object was to get a good
salary for himself, and his next was to
secure Republican success by any means
in his power, however crooked. All Of

The number Of immigrants arrived in
this country last year was 5iS. 4S1. against
go, eee in 1891, a decrease of 47.l79. The
decrease during the last half Of the year
was 1888. from which il appears that
there was an increase during the frs
half OF the year. and thar there would
probably have been an increase for the
whole year but for the measures adopted
10 defend the country against cholera.
The official statement shows a decrease
In arrivals from Russia, the United
Kingdom. Poland. Netherlands, Germany
and Austria Hungary. There was an In
crease from Sweden and Norway. 1t may
be remarked once more that we have no
record OF immigration from Canada and
Mexico.

TRIAL OF JAMES LYNCH.
WITNESSES EIiMINED AT CHES-
TERFIELD COURT YEsTERDAY.
The Prisoner is Believed To Be Insane.
The Identity OF the Murdered Man
Yet a Mystery-History of Case.

At the Chesterfield County Court yes
terday, the trial of James Lynch, the
tramp who has been confined in the
Chesterfield Jail for several months,
charged with the murder OF the unknown
man near Chester was commenced. Three
witnesses were examined. and the court
adjourned till today. Considerable in
terest has been manifested in this case
for several months. and a number OF
theories have been advanced as TO what
the result would be. A general opinion
has been that Lynch would be discharged
on the grounds Of insanity. super
intendent in aMassachusetts lunatic asy
lum has written a letter stating that
Lynch was confined I'm an asylum in that
State one month before the murder took
place Lynch's appearancewould cer-
tainly lead one to believe that he is Of
unsound mind. He has a blank stare
about theface that looks as If the man
we're In state Of reverie. IL will be
rememberd that Lynch was seen with
the murdered man on the evening
before the tragedy. The next morn
ing the remains OF the young man were
found lying face downward In 4 creek
about one mile south of Chester. The
skull had been fractured by large stick
that lay near the scene Of the murder. A
two dollar note was found in the young
mans pocket No name was found on
his linen. and nothing about his clothes
told who he was or whence he came.
His identity has never been discovered.
At one time It was believed that the man
came from one OF the New England
states. II was thought that a clue 10
his identity had been discovered In
Boston, and the authorities In that
city communicated with the Common
wealths Attorneyof Chesterfield In
reference TO the matter. Nothing definite
was ascertained, however, and the
identity OF the man stin remained in
the dark. Lynch claims 10 be a Welshman
and stated that he had been in this
country several years. He denied having
q hand in the murder Of the young man,
but admitted having cooked and drunk
tea with the murdered man on the
evening before the tragedy The counsel
for the defence will enter plea Of
insanity I'm the case.
