A MOnOnOlY.

Shopping agencies Of various kinds
are one of the features Of New York
life; and now scheme is proposed
that, if successful, will do away with
the tour of the shops SO dear to the
hearts of many women. A company
has made an arrangement with the
Broadway cable cars, and it is said will
try to secure the same right on all the
other lines, for the use of their front
platforms as news and confectionery
stands On each car it will place uni
formed agent who will sell the things
on hand, and will also take orders from
the passengers for anything they may
want from collar buttons to Dress
The passenger has simply to tell the
boy what he wants and when he will
board the car again, and the commits
sion will be executed. The company
proposes to make arrangements with
a number of large establishments in the
city to fill all orders that it brings in
at the lowest possible rates. Under
such conditions, it will obviously be
the duty Of the economical woman to
buy by proxy, even though she must
thus relinquish her favorite occupation.

A course We'll follow far and fleet!
Bind each broad shoe both free and fast
And see that every reindeer thong
Is flawless proved, and framed to last,
And limb and muscle 1.-THE and strong!
The brown old forest, barred of dress.
Stands voiceless now, and grim and lone.
But had it voice, it would express
The wish to echo with our own.
Yet bark! The pines along the stream,
Whose own sweet music now is dumb
Take up the forests cause, and seem
TO murmur welcome as we come
And so for many devious miles
A merry march awhile We'll keep;
Through ali the forests moonlit aisles
Well sing it's denizens from sleep.
Until once more the snowy mead
Is reached by some remembered lane;

BIMETALLISM ABROAD.
GROWING BELIEF IN AN INJrFR-
NATIONAL CONFERENCE.
1t May be Called on the Initiative of
Germany-Cbangc OF Administers
ton in England Generally Fa-
vorabIy Looked Upon.

Washington, June 25.-There is ap-
parently considerable confusion as to
the prospects of an international con-
ference to consider the rehabilitation
Of silver to be called on the initiative
Of Germany. This is due to the con-
f1icting reports and also apparently to
the complications of the question as it
presents itself in Germany.
Those who have given attention to
the progress of the agitation in Ger
many say that Chancellor Won Hohen-
lobe announc ed in the beginning that
Germany'S 2ttion in the matter would
depend upon two circumstances. The
first of these was that the German
state legislative bodies should instruct
for the issuance Of the call. and the
second that there should be a sub
stantial agreement among the powers
as to the terms of the call. The latest
report makes it appear that ma
jority of the federal governments want
the conference and desire that Ger
many should issue the call for it. It
is understood now that accepting this
action on the part of the different
states in the light of an instruction,
the chancellor will proceed to nego-
tate with the other European powers
as to the terms of the call. The Uni
ted States has made known its wishes
in this respect so far as the legislative
branch of the government can act. in
the resolution appointing congressional
delegates. In this resolution provision
was made that the United States
should be represented only in case the
conference should be called to provide
for a restoration of bimetalljsn1 Whau-

WAS A FALSE CLAIM.
PERALTA LAND CASE GOES IN IA
YOR OF THE GOVERNMENT.
Reavis Arrested For Asserting
False Claims Against the Gov
ernment-A Most StupendOus
Fraud.

Santa Fe, n. NJ, June 25.-The great
Peralta grant. situated in Arizona
and New Mexico, and covering 49,.
900 acres of land. which has been on
trial for three weeks. was decided to-
day in favor of the government. The
claimant was in court, appearing cool
and collected. The court held every
title paper to be forged and manufac-
tured, and that the mission records
of San Salvador, California, were
forged to enable the wife of the claim
ant to connect herself with Peralta
family Chief Justice Reed announced
it was not necessary to determine who
Mrs. Peralta-Reavis was, but it was
sufficient to hold that she was not an
heir of the alleged grant nor entitled
to maintain the suit. The written
opinion will be filed by the chief JUS
tice as soon as il can be prepared.
Upon advisement, Reavis was arrested
by the United States marshal for as
serting false claims against the gov
eminent upon complaint made by
United States Attorney Reynolds, un-
der instructions given by Attorney
General Olney given before he left the
department of justice. United States
Attorney Reynolds and his associate,
Mallet Provost, are being showered
with congratulations from all over
Arizona. This practically ends the
most stupendous fraud ever attempted
in this country and successfully car
ried on for a quarter OF a century

GERMANY'S POSITION.
HER ATTITUDE TOWARD Us FULLY
EXPLAINED.
Prospects For an international
Monetary Conference--Discrim
alton Against American Cattle.

Washington, June 25.-Baron Won Thiel-
man, the new German ambassador. who
presented his credentials to the state de-
partment yesterday, gave TO the Associa-
ted Press an interview today on current
German-American questions.
What are the prospects," he was
asked. that Germany viii participate in
an international monetary conference
The agitation for silver, he said,
comes mainly from the agrarian popula-
ton in the north of Germany, and was
largely due TO the low prices of farm
products"
He did not believe the imperial govern
ment would take any step towards the
calling of an international monetary con-
ference until after the reichstag assem-
bled in November and a great deal would
depend upon that body.
When asked if Germany intended to re-
move the restrictions put in force last
summer against American cattle. the am
bassador replied that this would not be
delayed after Germany was assured that
American cattle were free from Texas
fever and he denied very positively that
Germany's policy respecting American
cattle was in retaliation for the differen-
tial duty levied by the American tariff
law on German sugars.

Reatie Named as Agent.

John Beck has at last selected an
agent whose appointment as such
gives satisfaction to the formers
friends and business associates. That
his selection has been wise none will
deny when it is known that the per-
Beck's affairs in the absence of his
principal is Walter S. Beatie, secretary
of the Bullion-Beck and Champion
Mining company. Mr. Beatie now
signs all checks and other papers as
agent for John Beck and the latter
is in a position to take things very
easy did he but see the point. AL
though those on the inside refuse to
discuss that matter, it is stated that
Mr.. Beatie is serving without pay.

Saw His Brother Fall Into the
Creek at Bingham.
DREAM WHICH PROyEDTRU
BODY FOUND IN 4 POOL YEsTER-
DAY FORENOON.
The Inquest VIII BE Held This
Morning-Strange Story of Psy-
Geological Inhuence-Mr. John
FrfcI1e Takes Opium and Has to
Be Pumped Out.

Two nights ago. Lars Madsen, an
employee of the South Galena in B!ag-
ham, had a dream.
In the middle of the night he saw
his brother standing on the bank of
the creek which flows through the
town of Bingham.
The picture was so vivid that Lars
declares he must have been there in
a sort of astral manner While he was
looking Erlc-that is the name of ms
brother-suddenly fell off. As he did
SO he called out in the language OF
his native country, save me, save
mer AIadsen declares that he rushed
forward to render assistance and as
he did so he awoke.
1t was in the dead hours Of the
night but, although the vision had van
ished, the voice still called him. He
realized at once his brother must be
in deep trouble and awoke his COM
panions and told them the story. OF
course they all laughed at him. He,
however, was not to be put off and.
leaving the boarding house of the
company, at once set out to look for
him.
His companions returned to their
rest.
The next morning Eric did not re-
turn and his disappearance IVES COM
mented upon quite freely by his COM
panions. But none of them tool. any
stock in the vision of their companion.
He, however, refused to give UP the
idea that something had happened to
his brother and began a search along
the banks of the creek. At one point,
very similar to the place he saw in the
H., e-f,, Low 20
those which would be made by q man
who had fallen over and made an
effort to save himself. He reported
this and was again laughed at for his
pains.
The poor mar would not give up the
idea of his brother having met with d
horrible fate and finally induced some
of the men To go to the place and in
vestigate As Eric did not come home
it was finally conceded that inasmuch
as the footprints did look as described
and Eric had not returned as Usual,
there might be something in it.
The creek was searched and yester-
day the dead body of the unfortunate
was discovered.
Eric was 81 years of age and had
evidently fallen or been pushed from
the bank where the marks of the feet
were discovered.
The body had drifted down the
stream to pool and sank, which &C
counted for the fact of its not being
discovered on the first day. A sudden
rise in the creek yesterday brought ii
to the surface. Coroner Offenbach
was notified and will go to Bingham
today and hold an inquest.
The dead man and his brother
worked together in the South Galena
mine and were very much attached to
each other.
This is but another instance of the
proof Of the theory that there is a
chain of thought between human
minds which distance does not separ-
ate. There is nothing supernatural
about it at all. It is just one Of the
facts of scientific discussion.
The drowning mans mind turned in
stinctively in his trouble to his brother
and the psychological influence which
exists at once communicated the wish
for aid
