TRUE DEMOCRATS.
DELEGATES JOSEPH AND SMITH
WORKING HARD.
Defent in Their Respective TertitO-
rfes Did Not at All Dnmpen Their
Desire Tor Statehood.

washington, Dec. S.-The friends of
THE territorial admission bills feel
much relieved over the action of the
Democratic senatorial caucus in decid-
ing to place these bills on the pre-
ferred calendar There had been some
opposition feared lest the fact that
Arizona and New Mexico had elected
Republican delegates 10 Congress at
the last election would have the effect
of causing the Democratic Senate to
decide against taking the bills UP at
the present session.
Senator Faulkner, chairman of the
territorial committee, has been a
persistent advocate of the policy of in
GLIDING these bills in the programme
for the short session, meeting the ar
gunents of those who have had the
bills side tracked for political reasons,
with the assertion that the result of
the recent election could not be ac-
cepted as in any sense a criterion of
the permanent political preferences of
the people of tine trritories.
Delegates Joseph and Smith,, repre-
senting the two territories, and both
Democrats, confirmed the opinion.
Both of them have been spending con-
siderable time ON the floor of the Sem
ate, recently. They urged upon the
Democratic senators that it is unfair
to judge the predictions of their re-
spective constituencies by the results
in the contests for delegates. In the
territories as elsewhere, MANY Demo
Gratis remained away from the polls ait
the November election.
Messrs. Joseph and Smith argue from
these premises that the territories will
prove safely Democratic as states, and
urge that the programme for admls-
sion be carried forward just as zeal
ously as though they were both to con-
tinue to sit in the House the next two

New York. Dec. S.-David L. Kellarn,
THE broker who was arrested last night.
together with Lawyer Henry Haigh, on
complaint of T. E. Simmons, of Tacoma,
Wash. on the charge of obtaining notes
from him under false pretenses, made a
statement to Inspector Mclaughlin to-
day concerning persons who held some
of the notes involved. The Wayne Coun-
ty Savings bank of Hornellsville, n. Y,
holds two notes for $1,500, one being
given for collateral and the other deposit
ed with the institution for discount. KEEL
lam and Haigh were arraigned before
Justice Grady in tine Tonbs Police court
today. Haig'h said his connection with
the affair was purely legitimate. He was
to receive his commission for whatever
notes he disposed of. Just who gave him
tine notes to sell he would not say. It
was found THAT three notes of $1,000 each
issued on July 13 had been so altered as to
make the date appear October 90 81 and
%, respectively. When the defendants
were arraigned in court complaint Of
grand larceny was first preferred, but
fearing this accusation would not hold,
ing forged notes. The Robert Hayes who
negotiated with Lawyer Haigh for the
purchase of $33 600 worth of the notes,
was none other than Joseph Britain, OF
the Society of the Prevention of Crime
and the Enforcement of the Law.
After a brief preliminary examination,
the defendants were each held in $4,000
bail. and the further hearing was SET
down for next Monday. The prisoners
were unable to furnish bonds and were
locked up.

Jersey said Jordan, on the afternoon
of the murder, gave him some money,
told him to get a few drinks and be
back to work at o'clock that night.
When he re-appeared, Jordan asked
aim to carry out the shipping case, and
so doing, some blood from the box ran
out into Jerseys sleeve. He asked Jor-

told him there was a dead man in the
box, and he had better keep quiet.
Badly scared. Jersey kept silent until
the ferrors of the sweat-box wrung the
story from him.

Gold GOiug Abroad.

Notwithstanding the fact that
from Jan. | to April l this country
exported to Europe more than &c.
100000 of gold in excess Of our en-.
tire imports during that period, the
drain of the gold continues. 1t is a
little difficult to explain the present
tendency Of gold upon any other
basis than that it goes abroad to pay
debts, because it is drawn abroad
by the manipulation of exchange,
which the banks of England or
France can so manage as to make it
cheaper to pay balances in gold than
in other commodities. When Amer
lean merchants can remit gold coin
to Europe cheaper than they can
buy exchange, the gold will go, and
the price of exchange is regulated
entirely by the banks. This country
is powerless to prevent the manlpu
lation of exchange so as to render
it impossible to deprive us of our
gold, and for this reason the United
States is preyed upon by every ma.
ton which may, for any cause, wish
to increase its holdings of the vel
low metal.
All the gold exported goes from
the United States treasury. IL is
true, a New York merchant may
draw gold from his bank to ship
abroad, but the bank, as soon as its
gold reserve falls below what is re-
garded as the point of prudence,
sends bills to the treasury to be ex-
changed for gold, and, under our
laws, the treasury must respond to
the demand The banks of England
and France can both prevent their
gold reserves from being drawn out,
but with our large amount OF paper
redeemable in gold, the treasury OF
the United States cannot prevent
the drain upon its gold resources.
TO draw our gold to England, all
the Bank of England has to do is to
raise the rate of exchange, but our
treasury cannot retaliate. just now,
Austria is placing her financial sys-
TEN on a gold basis, and the gold is
being drawn chiefly from this coun-
