THE EFFECT IN INDIA.

The Silver Action of the Government
Will Mako the Natives wild.
The London Times. June 23, 1898,
quotes the following insignificant ex-
tracts from letter in an India paper,
the Pioneer, ON England's brutal tamp-
ering with the currency Of India, by
causing the mints to be closed to the
coinage of the rupee:
81 do not think" says the writer,
"that those who are crying out for clos
ing the mints, as means of raising the
sterling value of the rupee, can properly
such measure will arouse throughout
the length and breadth of India.
There is scarcely family in India but
has some small hoard of silver, in the
shape of ornaments, slowed away or
buried in the ground for safe keeping.
Among the many millions composing
the population of India there is scarcely
q soul who has ever heard of the depre-
citation of the rupee, beyond the fact
that gold ornaments are dearer to buy
than they were formerly. As far as their
daily life is concerned they are in no way
worse off than before, and desire no
change in the currency whatever, and
indeed have never even heard of any
such being contemplated. Now, what
impression is such measure ae closing
the mints likely to produce on such
community? At present every man
who possesses any silver can take to the
nearest bazar and exchange it for prac-
tically it's weightin rupees. He believes
that it is safer in his own hands than in
any bank in the land. By the decree of
the foreign government under which he
lives, suddenly and without due notice,
every native of India will be defrauded
of the difference between the present
value of his hoard and the appreciated
artificial value of the scsrcsr rupee. If
they have hitherto never heard OF the
depreciation of silver. they will not long
be kept in ignorance. Distrust, anger
and resentment against the government
which has thus robbed them for it's own
selfish ends will fill every home in
India. The present difficulties of the
government are surely sufficient, with
out raising such storm of discomfort.
1t would be impossible to invent any
measure of taxation which would more
certainly ALLEVIATE the good will of the
people,"

Yesterday afternoon at Santa Monica
Mr.. D. q. Scotield. vice. dent Of the
nevada southern railway, gave select
lunch to number OF friends at the Ho-
tel Arcadia. The principal guest was
!. 3. Gabel, the general manager Of the
Atlantic and Pacific railway. Mr. Gsbe
has frequently visited Los Angeles sne
on the occasion of his present visit
which is after lapse OF several wears
he expressed himself surprised and de.
lighted at the rapid advance which he
everywhere encountered In Southern
California.
The growth Of Los Angeles in partition,
lar has simply. astonished him. He
looks for rapid and magical develop.
ment in this section. Mr.. Gabel saws
that the lines of the Atlantic and Pa.
citic railway in Southern California and
in the direction of Mexico have shown a
very healthy development. The present
silver furry has somewhat diminished
the revenue in these roads. The Guav-
mas branch of their road has picked UP
remarkably OF ofbusiness oflate. and while
it may not be profitable on the point OF
investment, it is far exceeding the cost
OF maintenance of late and bids fair to
show most gratifying development.
Mr.. Gabel thinks that the present
furry in silver will be shortly happily
adjusted, and that after the special ses-
sion of congress highly remunerative
business will be recorded on all the
principal branches of the Atlantic and
Pacific railway. He also thinks that the
people of Los Angeles have not perhaps
fully recognized the great Office that the
Atlantic and Pacific railway has played
in the remarkable development of this
country since he was here in 1885. He
expressed himself sa simply astonished
and delighted at the development he
has encountered on every hand, both of
his road and the matchless Los Angeles
valley.

stormy scene in the commons tonight.
At the Limerick assizes recently Lord
Chief Justice O'Brien of Ireland COM
planned of the manner In which the
criminal statistics of the Irish were
compiled. This was brought up by
Bodkin in the commons tonight. Car

for Dublin university, interposed

ecutive. Morley, chief secretary for
Ireland, said he was not aware that any
Judge had previously commented upon
the system employed, and added that
an English Judge would not have seized
such Gn occasion to criticise the govern
