The railroads did not feel the bnsi-

banks, but it is now striking them.
"Bradstrcets" table Of 1873 roads shows
an increase in May of 62 percent over

STATE TREAsURY SCANDAL.


Begun IN Investigation.
The United States authorities
have begun an investigation Of the
charge that in 1892, $4,000 Id
newly minted COMA we're placed in.
the State Treasury vaults.
On Saturday last U. 8. District
Attorney Jones visited the vaults
to satisfy himself if tine charges
were true. He found that the
amount was there in new silver
dollars of 1893 when Treasurer
Wester6eld took charge. They.
were there in sacks holding 81 GOO
each. Not half the money has yet
been paid out and the sacks are all
filled with freshly nainted coins all
of the same date and bearing the
initial stamp of the Carson Mint.
He took some of the coins away
for inspection depositing gold in
their place. Some of the coins are
not we'll minted and bear evidence
of having been hastily made.
The u. 8. authorities ascertain
from the books of the Mint that
677, 600 silver dollars were coined
in '93, and they are counting the
money of that date in the vaults to
see what light can be thrown on
the matter. If the books were cor
rectly kept they ought to tell how
the entire coinage OF that year was
disposed of. The inference from
the 1000 new dollars found in the
Treasury is that coming was done
unknown to the Government on
private account. Silver bullion
was 90 cents an ounce, then and by
|stanping u with the Gos nu1eet
stamp an ounce became worth
1929, which would give the man
ipulators of such a deal profit Of
$67, 900 ON 1000 ounces.
If extra money was coined with
out the knowledge of the Govern
ment, the parties engaged in the
work would naturally dispose Of
the silver and get gold in its place.
Only on this theory would the so
sacks Of new coins in the State
Treasury be accounted for.
In connection with the present
scandals in the Mint the case
threatens to assume considerable
Importance.

right off. Take your time.

Briggs-When you first talk with
her, for instance, appear as if you
thought there was someone else
present. There won't be, of course;
she will look out for that; but you
must be very circrmspect. i:

Briggs-Oh, after you have call
ed there once or twice you can
gradually get more familiar, more
confidential. Tell her you have long
wanted friend, one whom you can
trust. Put in a touch about your
lonely life, and SO forth. This will
arouse her sympathy.
Griggs-I see. When would be
a good time To hold her handP
Briggs-After the third or fourth
visit. But be careful, very careful.
Treat her like q timid bird.

Briggs-Oh, yes; but it's a sure
thing, old man. That's my method.
Griggsl (effusively)-Well, old
fellow, / can't thank you enough for
telling me this. After what she told
me yesterday, Pll know just how to
act. j.. .,f, o.t.see
Briggs--What did she say?
Griggs--She said that you were a
nice fellow, but the slowest man she
ever met.-Hdrper's BGzGr
