It is pnquestionably true that 10 part
Of our people is 50 vitality interested in
the preservation Of n sound and stable
currency as the mon and women who
work for wages, and in the term wages
1 include salaries and compensation in
every form paid for personal services
in all the occupations Of life, The evils
Of a deprecated and fl~uctuating currency
must always fall most heavily upon the
poor, who do not produce for them
solves but for others, md who are there
fore compelled to purchase with their
wages everything they eat, drink and
wear. Their wages will remain station
airy, or at best they will rise slowly and
at long intervals, while the prices Of
the neeessaries Of life arc liable to rise
suddenly from day to day as the value
Of the currency changes, and consequent
ly what may appear to be a fair rate Of
compensation ut the time a labor con-
tract Is made may prove. to be grossly
inadequate long before the labor is per-
formed. The laboror cannot protect him
self against fluctuations in the prices of
commodities, for he cannot purchase at
wholesale when prices are low and keep
out of tho markets when prices are high,
He must buy day by day, and he must
pay out Of his earnings, whether their
purchasing power be great or small,
The employer cannot afford to promise
higher wages in advance, because with
o ~depreciating and ~fuotuating currency
he cannot possibly foretell what the
prices of his products will DO at any
time in the future, Thus the laborer is
the victim of two influences, neither Of
which a he successfully resist, He
must accept whatever wages arc offered
by employers Or go without work, and
he must pay whatever prices are de-
manded in the markets or 90 without
food.-secretary Carlisle at Louisville,

How VIII They Get 1tY

S~ilverites reply to the proof that there
is far more money now in this country
than at any previous period in our his
tory by saying: 1.-THE money is all
locked up in the banks. We want free
silver so the people will have the mon
ey," But they never explain how free
coinage, under which the silver mine
owners would take their bullion to the
mint and get back coined dollars, would
put those dollars in the pockets Of the
people, Or how it would keep them ont
Of the banks If their owners chose to de-
post them, The fact that We have near
" five times rs much money per capita
as Mexico, a free silver country, should
lead the believers in free coinage to
think a little about the probable results
Of their scheme,

TIRED OF IDLENESS.
Seventeen-Yenr-Old Julia TiIlana
Tried to Drown Herself.

A rather attractive looking young girl,
much agitated. paced the dock at the
foot of East Ninety-sixth street shortly
before noon to-day. She was seen to
wiring her hands and was muttering. She
attracted the attention of the men en-
gagged in unloading a schooner at the
lower end of the dock. After pacing up
and down the wharf. she suddenly
turned to the stringpiece, shrieked and
jumped into the water.
The men on the schooner went at
once TO her rescue Patrick OBrien, of
1903 Second avenue, plunged in without
taking OF his coat. He grabbed the
girl by the hair as she was disappearing
and pulled her ashore. She was ar
rested by a policeman from the East
IIighty-eighth street station.
The young woman described herself
as Julia Tillano, seventeen years old.
She said she lived with her aunt, Mrs.
Newman, at 46 East One Hundred and
Twelfth street. She was formerly en-
ployed as saleswoman in one of the
large. dry good. stores, but about a
month ago lost her position. Since then
she has been unable to procure employ
ment. Her aunt. she said, chided her to-
day because she did not get something
to do. ana this made her despondent.
Sooner than eat the bread of idleness
she determined to end her life.
She was held.

In presenting the report Alderman
Ocott. Chairman of the Finance Com
mittec explained that the increas, OF
the new rate over the rate last year,
which was LIS was not due to the pres
ent administration. but to the Tammnny

which made the present rate OF l9l

ber. $500. 900 for uncollected taxes, and

MINISTER DENNY ACTS.
Chinese COmmissioner CO-Operates
with Consul Nixon at ku-Cheng.

WASHINGTON. Aug. 27.-The State
Department is in receipt of cable
gram from Minister DENLY. in which
he states that in respor Sc to a request
made by him to the Tsung Ii Yamen,
the Taotai. Hsu-Hsing-I. has been sent
to cooperate with Consul Hixson in
investigating the kut len (ku Cheng)
riot. The rank Of the commissioner
who is an intedant of circuit (TaotaD
is, by treaty. equal to that Of the Con-
sui.
1t is supposed that the name of this
officer may have been altered in trans
mission over the cable and 1t is pos
sible that the name should be Hsu
fung-I, well-known metropolitan ofii-
Ger. who for many years was Vice
President for the Board of Works and
has also been of late years. Minister
of the Tsung Ii Yamen. Should. how
ever. the Department be mistaken on
this, the person appointed appears, from
his name, unquestionably to belong to
the family of this. wcll-known Minister.
The wording of Mr. Denby's cable
gram leads the Department to believe
that this Commssones has been sent
from Pekn. and II is al so inferred that
Minister DENLY has given ample In
structions to Consul HiSson. and that
he is enjoying all the facilities neces-
sary to carry out his instructions at
ku Cheng
This cable. it Is stated, should put to
rest the reports that Minister DENLY
was not carrying out the instructions of
Acting Secretary Adce and that there
was dissatisfaction with him at the
State Department.
