Lineman Vrsa Got q Sudden Shock
and Fell Forty Feet to Death.
Philip Vrsa, a lineman employed by the
Hudson Electric Company Of Hoboken, N.
j., was killed by falling from pole Satur-
day night. His fall was caused by his re-
ceiving a powerful electric shock.
The storm had disarranged the wires used
to carry the current in addition to the
re gular force in the trolley wire. Vrsa went
along the line fixing the wires.
At the corner of two streets he climbed to
the lower crossarm of a pole, forty feet
above the street. He had Just reached the
crcssarm and placed his hand on 1t to draw
himself up when he uttered a cry and fell
backward. When his hand went up sparks
flew from it. He struck his head on the
flag sidewalk. His skull was fractured, his
right arm broken, three ribs on the right
side stove in and his head cut and crushed.

Information comes from Victoria, B. c.,
that the owners of sealing vessels seized by
United States vessels are willing to accept
$4,000 as satisfaction in full for their

1850 feet of one of the heaviest pro-
ducers in the camp-the &. .. D.
which nets its owners something like

pose, and for this reason we now offer

namely, that what is really hap
pening is that money is becoming
dearer. To say that prices of
property and commodities are
coming down is to say that
money is going up. The only
class benefited by this-and
they are benefited unjustly-are
the classes that have lent money
at interest and are living on fix
ed incomes. Their only PRO
ducts" being bonds, mortgages
and money, they gladly see these
rising in value by the fall of
general prices, to the extreme
detriment of industry and com
merce.
To my mind, therefore, the
very keystone of the arch of
national progress, is asuffciency
of money, and for this country a
s'suficiency" means a constantly
increasing quantity Without
such increase all the factories
that go to make up this great
arch must tumble in confusion to
the ground. In the presence of
a money famine, the most con-
samate craftsmanship, and the
most intelligent business fore
sight are more helpless than In
the presence of an all peryading
and consuming pestilence; for
the horrors even Of pestilence
may be mitigated and its ravag-
ges stayed by the manifold as
S raging Offices and all command
ing power Of money. For the
absence of money nothing avails-
To attempt, whether with or
without tariff, to secure national
prosperity without sufficient
quantity OF money IS to attempt
to float ships without a proper
depth OF water or to conduct
passengers and freights over
railroads without a sufficient
number of engines and cars, or a
sufficient number Of rails 10 con-
stitute a continuous track
While, therefore not under
stunding the Importance to the
country of full recognition Of
the protective principle, hold
that the tariff and all other issu-
es are in the nature OF the case
subordinate to the great and far
reaching question of the money
supply. In this conviction 1

furnaces and factories without
number. These depend for
vigor, and especially for unbrok-
en- continuity Of operation upon
upon an institution unknown to
former periods of history, name
ly, the time contract. Upon t G
degree of accuracy with which
the managers and organizers Of
large establishments and pro-
jectors of great enterprises can
make business forecasts will de-
pend the enormously important
consideration of continuity of
employment not only of those
directly engaged in production,
but of all who, whether with
hand or brain, are occupied in
connection with the distribution
and exchange of the products of
labor. Idleness is the destruc-
ton, moral and physical, of a
people. The fate of mankind
hangs upon the question whether
civilization can persist while
larger and larger numbers OF
people in all countries are being
relegated to idleness of willing
workers, of whom there are mil
lions. even in times much more
prosperous than the present, is
due to force that acts upon in
dustrial society like a deadly but
odorless gas, which, because of
its subtle character, escapes de
lection. In its methods it is as
silent as time, yet as memorable
as death. Its victims usually at
tribute their sufferings to every
cause but the true one. This
fatal influence affects alike en-
ployer and employed, agricultur-
list and artisan. What is this
power ? 1t is the rapacious and
engorging power Of an over
increasing value in the unit OF
money, that is to say, in the dol
lar. When an obligation has
been entered into requiring the
payment of money, at a future
time, this is the subtle alchemy
which, without efecting any
change in the written figures,
yet enlarges the burden OF the
obligation by extracting from hin
who has agreed to pay money
and all business men are in thi:
category-more sacrifice fol
dollar than a dollar represented
at the time the obligation was
made. This process paralyze:
industry and relegates to a pitt
full and corroding idleness null
titudes of willing workers. Thi:
it accomplishes by producing al
artificial and unnatural fall in tbs
prices in property and in tbs
products of labor-a fall not arts
/ ing from the natural operation
of the forces of supply and de
mand affecting the property aaC
commodities; but from a change
in the relation of supply and de
mand for money. When popuIa
ton and business are increasing
if there be no concurre IL increas'
of the quantity of money, gener
al prices must fall. All politica
economists agree that, othe.
things remaining unchanged,
diminution in the quantity o
money lowers prices. Such dim
mutton occurs equally whethe
it be accomplished by an actua
falling of in the supply of none.
when population and business
are stationary. or by the quaint
ty of money remaining fixei
while population and bushes
are increasing. This country
stands in the latter category. 1t
population is constantly increas
ing at a rate unknown in an,
other country of the world. L
