THAT HONEST DOLLAR.

How 1t IL Wrecking Business Enterprise
and Aiding tho Banker.
The facts fly in the face of the gold
tie claim that the gold dollar is the
honest dollar. Here is an extract from
the Cincinnati Enquirer:
1.-THE failure of the Standard Wagon
Co. and the Davis Carriage Co., OF this
eitv, has been announced. They were
very large concerns and gave employ
ment to a great number of men, and
furnished a market for vast amount
of raw material. The officers made a
heroic struggle to live. but had finally
to succumb to the inevitable. One
single sentence in the presidents an
nouncement of the failure Is sufi-
Gent to account for the disas-
ter, and for other business trou-
bles yet to come. The paragraph
referred to reads as follows: The
bankers dollar has in its purchasing
power almost doubled in value, while
the manufacturers and enterprising
business mems dollar, invested in
buildings, machinery and merchandise,
is reduced SO per cent beloD original
cost
by referring to quotations of the
value of bank stocks it will be seen
that they have not been shrinking.
The products of industry, the wealth
created by labor, skill and enterprise,
are flowing into the possession of those
who do not add a single iota to the
worlds wealth. The bankers are very
consistently in favor Of doubling the
purchasing power of money and cur
rency, but what is their gain is the
enterprising business man's loss Gold
monometallism is daily recording it.

Very Satisfactory Performance on Haf
Trial Trip-Earned a Bonus.
Boston, Oct. 1a.-In her official trial
trip between Cape Ann and Boone
island. distance of thirty-one knots,
the battleship Indiana made an aver
age of 1851 knots for four hours This
is 61-1OO knots above the speed re-
quired by the government, and as
there was a premium offered of S25, 0eO
for every quarter knot over fifteen,
the, Cramps will receive $4,000 as a
bonus in excess of the contract price
offered. The very satisfactory speed
developed by the Indiana is secondary
to the wonderful way in which the
machinery worked.
1t was perfect day for trial trip.
The atmosphere was brilliantly clear,
and the breeze that was blowing onl y
had weight enough to crest the sea
with little whitecaps.
At 10 o'clock the Indiana approached
the starting line. and at 10:O3:13X she
was off. The run to Boone island was
made against the tide and consumed
two hours, two minutes and seven sec
onds. the ship passing the last stake
boat at 1905. The average speed for
the thirty-one knots was at the rate Of
1924 knots per hour. The speed to
Boone island was disappointing, but on
the way back was noticeably greater.
1t was 2:3C:a1 when the trial was
over. The engineer officers of the
trial board were surprised at the won
derful performance of the engines.
Not the slightest difficulty developed.
and the engineers were unanimous In
the opinion that the engines were the
best they have ever handled.
During the last fifteen minutes oi
the run II. 500 horsepower was devel-
oped. The average horsepower devel.
oped. however. was 300, which was
700 more than required by the govern
ment. The maximum revolutions OIL
the screws were 1S31. and the average
revolutions were between 1873 and 13O
The average steam pressure at the
boilers was 165. and at the engines 16l
It is expected the Indiana will &c
into commission about the first OF next
month.

GOLD HOLDS UP.

Silver, However, Is Deprecated by Un-
friendly Legislation.
Much is being said by financiers and
politicians about the necessity of MAIN
tanning sound currency of equal ex-
changeable value, whether gold. silver
or paper. and to accomplish this the
custom has been established, as have
before explained, to redeem all paper
currency presented at the treasury
with gold, although silver certificates
are by their express terms redeemabie
in silver coin of that metal, and SO it
happens that while we have more than
ten times as much outstanding paper
currency as we have gold in the treas
ury with which to redeem it, it is all
the fact that the government pays out
gold for it to anyone in any sum in
which it is presented for redemption.
This has led the government into en-
barrassing business complications To
obtain the gold necessary to maintain
its 500. 600. 600 In the treasury it has
been repeatedly compelled to borrow
gold and issue government bonds bear
ing interest that by and by will have
to be paid in gold. and in its last trans
action of this character, syndicate OF
bankers, part of which are residents OF
this country and part of England. took
our bonds under some arrangement by
which this syndicate was to maintain
the reserve in the treasury for a given
period, and under that arrangement it
has at different times within the last
few weeks been compelled to furnish
the government many millions of gold
in exchange for paper currency.
Notwithstanding the depreciation in
the market price of silver there has
certainly been no depreciation in the
value of gold, for the gold dollar is
just as large now and just as fine IS it
was before silver was demonetized,
and as you have seen that all forms OF
paper currency are held up to the full
value of gold by the fact that they are
redeemed with gold by the govern
ment, it is apparent there could be nc
depreciation in the value of money OF
any kind, nor in the value of any obi.

CINCINNATI, Oct 1s.-The Price Cur

Unimportant relief during the week

ARMENlAN REFORMS.


Esrty-ssven Prisoaers Declared Innoosns
and Regeased-Four Hundred Killed IN
the Rtots-Armenians Dfsarmsd and
Moslems Supplied with Weapons-DIsap.
pOinting Terms OF the scheme OF Reform
An Imperial Tirade Issued
LONDON, Oct. ia dispatch from
Constantineple. dated Wednesday. says
that the commission appointed by the
porte to inquire into the guilt or in-
nocence Of the Arpenians who have
been arrested since September 80, have
caused the release of forty-seven Ct the
prisoners, who are declared to be in
nocent of any completely in the riot
ing. Two hundred Armenian women
visited the minister of police on Mon
day last for the purpose of obtaining
news of missing relatives They were
sent away with assurances that all
the persons would be Immediately re-
leased.
The request made by Sir Philip Cur
rie, the British ambassador, for per-
mission to visit the prisons has been
granted. and Secretary Lister and two
other delegates of the powers have in
spected the prisons.
1t is now stated that the number OF
per sons who were killed during the
resent rioting at Trebizond was 400.
Further news of the riot at Akhis-
sar, in the vilayet of Adm, shows that
the attack on the Armenians was en-
tirely unprovoked.
Reports from the various districts OF
Anatolia show that the Armenians
have been disarmed, while weapons
have been given to the moslems.
The Sultan Finally Consents to Sign the
Scheme of Reform.
LONDON, Oct. 1s.-The Chronicle
publishes a Constantinople dispatch
saying that the sultan gave an audi
ence to his ministers early on Wednes-
day. They implored him to sign the
scheme of reform submitted by the
powers, and his majesty at last gave
way and cons.-ted to do SO.
While one part of the popu,dce has
been pacifed by the announcement OF
the acceptance of the scheme, there is
great excitement in Constantinople
proper, where there are signs OF
strong popular feeling against the
scheme. The Sofas. Mohammedan
theological students. are crowding to-
gether from all directions Patrols OF
soldiers are stationed at every hun.
dred yards about the city.
The paper expresses the fear that
English opposition will be greatly dis
appointed when the terms of the
scheme are made known, but adds
that probably Sir Phillip Currie. the
British ambassador to Turkey. has
done the best possible without caus-
ing a serious breach between Great
Britain and Russia. The paper adds
that the terms, however, are far short
of what Lord Salisbury demanded
some time ago, and prophesies that the
temporary solution of the Armenian
question will not save the sultan from
more dangerous anti-dynastic out
break, of which he himself will prob
ably be the victim.
