President Cleveland Writes 20 Gov. North.
ern. of Georgia-He again Declares aIu.-
self on the Money Question
ATLANTA, Ga, Sept 2a-In reply to
letter from Gov. Northern, asking the
president TO give his position on finan-
cial matters, Mr.. Cleveland has sent the
following reply:
Executive Mansion,
WAsHISoToN, ID. C.. Sept. 20.
"Hon. w J. Northern:
"My Dear Sir hardly lkno-v how to
reply 70 your letter of the 18TH inst
1t seems TO me that am quite plainly
on record concerning the financial
question. My letter accepting the
nomination TO the presidency, when read
in connection with the message lately
sent to congress in extraordinary SEES
sion, appears 10 me TO be very explicit
want currency that is stable and
safe in the hands of our people. will
not knowingly be implicated in n con-
dition that will justly make me in the
least degree answera BILE to any laborer
or farmer in the United States for a
shrinkage in the purchasing power of
the dollar he has received for a full dol
lars worth of work, or for a good dol
lars worth of the product of his toll
not only want our currency 70 be of such
n character that all kinds OF dollars will
be of equal purchasing power at home,
but l want IL to- be of such char
acter as will demonstrate abroad
our wisdom and good faith, thus plac-
ing upon q firm foundation our credit
among the nations of the earth.
want our financial conditions and the
laws relating TO our currency so safe
and reassuring that those who have
money will spend and invest il in bust
ness and new enterprises instead of
boarding it. You can not cure fright
by calling it foolish and unreasonable.
and you can not prevent the frightened
man from boarding his money. want
good, sound and stable money, and a
condition of confidence that will keep
it in use.
within the limits OF what l have
written, ! am a friend OF silver, but
believe its proper place in our currency
can only be fixed by a reAdjustment of
our currency legislation and the in
auguration OF a consistent and com
prehensive financial scheme. / think
such thing can only be en-
tered upon proftably and hopeful
~ after the repeal of the law which
is charged with all our financial woes.
In the present state of the public mind
this law can not be built upon, nor
patched in such a way as to relieve the
situation. / am, therefore, opposed to
the free and unlimited coinage of silver
by this country, alone and independent
ly, and l am in faver of the immediate
and unconditional repeal of the pur-
chasing clause of the so-called Sherman
law.
II confess / am astonished by the op.
position in the senate to such prompt
action as would relieve the present un:
fortunate situation. My daily prayer
is that the delay occasioned by such OPP
position may not be the cause OF plung,
ing the country into deeper depression
than it has yet known, and that the
democratic party may not be justly
held responsible for such catastrophe.
Yours very truly,

TRIBUTE TO CLEvEL AND.
Senator Voorhees, Rises TO Onset Senator
Stewards Attack.


WAsmNGToS, Sept. 2s.-There is
much talk about Senator Voorhees, re-
marks anent Senator Stewards attack
on the president Tuesday. M. Voor-
hees said:
II desire to account for the total ST.
lence on this aide of the chamber
in the face of such an assault by
stating that it has not been thought
necessary to say n single word
in defense of Grover Cleveland
from the time he was born in New
Jersey, as was stated by the senator
from Nevada, until the present hour.
On this side of the chamber, and. I
have reason TO believe, on the other
side and all over this country. his de-
Tense has been fully made by the
American people themselves. and in
tend that no criticism shall appertain
TO his friends here because of their si-
lence. say this because we feel that
his great and powerful career disarms
all such assaults as have been made
upon him.
Whatever the senator from Nevada
tMr. Stewart may have found OF fault
in his career. the American people have
not seen it in that way; whatever OF
criticism the senator from Nevada may
have INDUCED in, tho American people
have not shared that criticism OF him.
Nobody is perfect Human nature
is infrm, the loftiest characters are not
infallible, but / venture 90 say that in
American history the career OF Grover
Cleveland, his character, his achieve
ments his honor, his patriotism and his
ability will stand with the foremost in
spite OF all the assaults that may be
made
~ hope Mr.. President. that this lit
tie tribute may Toe taken as sufficient TO
account for the fact that we will not
feel called upon TO enter into any de-
Tense Of the president 81 the United
Stases unless something far more inn
portant may boz charged against him
than has been up 90 the present time. q"

THE HAWAIIAN STAMP CRAZE.
Situation That Attracted the Attention
of Philatelists the World Over.


Situation That Attracted the Attention
of Philatelists the World Over.
OF all the queer developments that
have arisen in connection with the de-
thronement of Queen Liliuokalani none
is stranger than the excitement which
attended the speculation in the provision
al stamps issued by the present govern
ment This speculation is not confined
to stamp collectors and dealers, but is
INDUCED in by residents of Honolulu and
citizens of this and other countries alike.
even one of the Spreckels family being
credited with having purchased and laid
aside $4,000 worth of these labels for
future profit.
1t was anticipated that the provisional
government would be of short duration,
and that the improvised stamps were to
have life as short as the temporary gov
ernment, and this led to the scramble
for stamps, as it was presumed that they
would become exceedingly rare and val
liable.
There were 81 varieties issued, includ-
ing all She perforated stamps issued by
the Hawaiian government since 1864,
ranging in value from cent to 81. Each
of these was overprinted, or surcharged,
to use philatelic term, with the words
provisional Govt, 1885," in three lines,
each word and date taking separate
line.
Some OF the stamps were surcharged
with black letters and others with red,
all of one denomination being overprint-
ed in the same color. But the portion of
one value, the 12 cent mauve, was sur
charged in black and the remainder in
red, there being twice as many of the
latter surcharged as of the former AS
but few thousands of this particular
stamp were on hand, they were soon
bought up, and as much as $5 each was
paid for specimen of the black sur
charge. Spectators soon bought up
the supply of several of the other values,
and it was not long after the date Of
their issue that a complete set of these
stamps, which had face value of $3.01,
was selling for G15.
Recently, however, some of the specu-
lators have deemed it wise to unload,
and tho entire set can now be purchased
for $40, still leaving handsome profit
on the original cost.
Recent advices from Honolulu show
that the mania for stamp collecting has
had somewhat Of sensational effect
there. F. F. Porter, q brother of tho
ex-minister Of finance of the provisional
government, wrote as follows to friend
in this city:
"They have gone crazy on Hawaiian
stamps. Even the Chinese are in it. Isaw
by the paper last night that one Chinese
firm bought s1,700 worth at the post
Office If such is the case, the govern
ment has mighty good thing, for it
can grind them out for about 10 cents
per 1000. see in the windows about
town samples of several kinds of stamps
priced $10."--San Francisco Call.

What Ia an Accidente

To the nonlegal mind the term "acci-
dent would appear to be easily defined,
but the late Lord Chief Justice Cockburp
thought not, and on several occasions in
surance companies have sought a defini-
ton in the courts of law. 1t has been
decided that sunstroke is not an acci-
dent, but that injury to the spine through
lifting heavy weight is one. Even if
physical ailments contribute to an acci-
dent, it is covered by the policy.
The relatives of man who, while
bathing in shallow water, was seized
with fit and suffocated, sustained their
claim, as did those of man who, when
similarly seized, fell under train and
was killed. Again, a person having fall
en- and dislocated his shoulder was put
to bed and carefully nursed, but in less
than month he died of pneumonia.
The connection between that complaint
and dislocated shoulder is not at once
visible. but on the ground that the rest
lessness and susceptibility to cold pro-
duced by the accident led to the disease
which killed him, the relatives were
held to be entitled to the claim.
1.-THE influence of Intoxicating liquor"
has been authoritatively defined as ''in-
f1uence which disturbs the balance of a
mans mind or the intelligent exercise of
his faculties" and injuries received while
in that condition are not covered by an
accident policy. Nor are those caused
by running obvious risk, as crossing a
railway, even at proper place, without
exercising due care to avoid passing
trains.-Chambers' Journal.
