THE FUTURE OF SILVER.

The financial articles which appear
in the column of the San Francisco
News Letter are ably written, and
attention should be paid to the fol
lowing. taken from a recent issue OF
that Journal:
The enormous decline in the price
of silver has prepared people inter
ested in the production of that meta!
for the worst, and they are now per
fectly reconciled to whatever may
happen in the future. The industry
has already suffered all the damage
possible, and still further deprecla-
ton in values will not affect the mine
owner. The sooner it comes now,
the better it will be for all con-
cerned, and from all appearances,
the time is not far distant when the
financial p ,wers of the world will be
compelled to reinstate silver on q
frmer and more reliable basis than 1t
has ever been before, as matter of
self protection The business panic
which has disturbed the commercial
relations of the entire world can
safely be attributed to the deprecia-
ton of silver. In any event, the de-
cline in its value precipitated the
crisis which has been threatening for
wears. The gravity of the situation
is such as to concentrate the attention
of all the brightest minds IN the ma
tional councils of the old and new
worlds on the question of finding
some way out of the difficulty, and
from present indications conference
will be held before long, when some
combined action will be taken to es-
tablish standard of value for silver,
while regulating the production.
One of the best investments which
are offered today is a well-developed
silver mine, if it can be purchased on
the present market values of the
bullion. It will pay to hold, pend
ing the restoration of silver to its
former position. The turn in the
tide will come before the end of the
present year, and the appreciation
will be, if anything, more marked,
than the decline in prices.

THE LATEST OUT.
An Ingenious Scheme For

Patented by Young Man Who Drives

The ingenuity displayed by sharpers is

verbal message from husband to his wife

scheme to pretend to be an expressman
who wanted money for a package that had
lust arrived by steamer. Then there was
the man who engaged a room and paid
the first weeks rent with a $50 Confeder-
ate bill, getting good money for the
change. All these, and Others, are. how
ever, played out.
The latest came to light yesterday
morning. A man called at police he ad-
quarters and said that horse and buggy
had been found in a coalyard on Lott and
McAllister streets. The harness had been
altogether removed from the horse and
taken away. The police are now trying
to find an owner for the rig.
About l o'clock yesterday afternoon Fire
Marshal Towe drove to his Office in the
City Hall to do some writing in regard to
Saturdays fires. lie left his horse and
buggy on the Larkin-street side of the hall.

The Fire Marshal was notified of the cir
cumstance and Immediately reported his
loss to police headquarters. About an
hour afterward report came 10 head
quarters that the horse and buggy had
been driven to livery stable on Il off ave-
nue.. near Sixteenth street, and that the
young man had gone away with the har-
ness, saying he was to take it to Seventh
and Mission streets. Inquiry elected the
information that he had not been at any
place near there. The Fire Marshal says
the harness is almost new and cost him $50.
The supposltion is that the young man
with the blonde mustache perpetratsd
both thefts and that his scheme is to walk
around till he sees a horse and buggy
standing on the street. the animal with a
good set of harness on. After securing
the harness he takes it to either a second
hand dealer or some livery stable keeper
and sells it for what he can get.
Detective Gibson has been put on the
trail of the young man and as he has OBJ

chances are that his little scheme will
soon be spoiled.

A COSTLY BLAZE.

The Decorative Company's Loss
Estimated at $4,000.
The people who dwell on the south side
of Market street flocked in droves yester-
day to the ruins of the Pacific American
Decorative Company's works on Howard
street, and while many went for curiosity
some went to steal. Many small pieces of
machinery disappeared during the morn
ing ana an unknown thief tried TO get
away with a dynamo. The secretary of
the company was finally compelled to call
for more policemen and in response 10 his
request the guard stationed at the ruins
was doubled.
The fire is supposed to have been caused
by spontaneous combustion, as the kiln $
had not been used for several Gays. The
loss on building and contents amounts to
$4,000. The property was insured, but
for what amout could not be asceTtalned,
owing to the absence from the city of F.

and box. But for all that the two things
are intimately related, and both owe their
existence to the Merchants Association of
this city.
The merchants were not satisfied with
the state of the streets and sympathizing
with the many unemployed resolved to try
hand labor. The man with the box is the
result His box is something like an ordi-
nary sOapbox with the cover and one side
removed and the remaining ends cut on an
angle so as to make the receptacle SCOOP
shaped. The brush is little larger than
the ordinary parlor whiskDroom. The
man employed sweeps up all the rubbish
he can into the wooden scoop, which he
then empteS at some convenient point.
The satisfactory result Of this method is
acknowledged by the merchants. who are
by no means at the end of their resources
in this direction. The cost SO far has been
found to be 10 cents day for each twenty
five feet store frontage. Unsightly papers,
dust and debris would speedily become
