Up to now British investors In first.
class American sterling securities
have not been much disquIeted. They
were confident that the cufrcncy
would be maintained In It's Integrity,
and there was therefore no fear that
obligations TO pay in gold would not
be scrupulously maintained. But II
once they became impressed with q
contrary belief they would get rid Of
their holdings 40 fast as possible, and
No should witness q drain on the
gold resources Of the United States
that would eclipse everything of the
kind previously experienced. It may,
however, be doubted II affairs will
come to such a pass.-Fairplay, July
rs, 1894.

There Is little doubt that the ugly
temper shown at Cowcs after the
Brltannia's defeat on last Monday
has cast shadow over the rivalry o1
the Britannia and Vigilant and has
left very dlsagreeable impression
on the American yachtsmen who no
ticcd It. The neglect of the British
yachtsmen to give the Vigilant q cheer
was explained plausibly at the time.
There was never any cheering or SINH.

A friend Of the populist persuasion

A friend Of the populist persuasion
asked . republican the other day,
how it was that with such a surplus
Of food products why there was 60
much starvation. The republican
told him his question contained its
own answer. That when people did
not eat there was almost always a
surplus Of food. This is not new
state Of things. When Ireland was
starving, when ship-luads Of food
were being sent from charitable peo-
pie in America for the hungry, at the
same time shir.loads of food were be-
ing sent abroad from that country to
be sold to people. who could buy. I'm
der the present status In this country,
We are hound to have a large surplus
OF food products, and ". must look to
foreign market to sell 1t 10.

sleep in the factory. There were 800. 900
cigars in the shop when the fire broke out,
and if any of them were fit for a smokers

there were none when it was over. The
appalling 0d0r OF the nicotine incense that
arose from the burning factory will linger

The FIRE broke out in the Chinese quar-

carelessness Of a coolie, who was filing a
