SUICIDE AT Los 4NGELEs.
Dependency Causes Young German to

Dependency Causes a Young German to
Kin HinIsetf.
LOS ANGELES, CAL, March 2s.-Her-
man Panhausen, a German, aged 25 years,
committed suicide this morning by shoot
ing himself through the heart.
Panhausen lived near the suburban
settlement of Hollywood. He arose at 5
O'Clock this morning, took his rife and
went TO a canyon near by. When he
failed to return neighbors made search
and found his body lying face downward
in the woods. His rife, which appeared
to have been recently fired, was near al
hand. Dependency had caused him tc
commit suicide.
Some time ago Panhausen wrote to rela-
tives in Germany for money with which tc
purchase some property. Yesterday he
received two letters from home, which
evidently contained disappointing news,
for Panhausen was morose and melancholy
after returning from the postoffice. The
Coroner held an inquest this afternoon
and thedsry brought in verdict of suicide.

CHARGES Against CoUNC1LmEN.
The City's Finance Committee Demands
Grand Jury Investt1atfon.

The City's Finance Committee Demands
Grand Jury Investigation.
TACOMA, WASH, March 2S.-Ever since
the Sunday when the first charges were
made the contest between the Ledger and
the Finance Committee of the Council has
been growing hotter.
To-day the Council held an adjourned
meeting to listen to charges which some
thought would be preferred by the propri-
etor and the manager of the Ledger, who
had been summoned to be present. They
did not attend, the Ledger having an
nounced that an investigation of the
charges that members of the Finance Com
mittee have been receiving loans and gifts
of money from banks containing CITY de-
posits should be made by Grand Jury and
not by the men against whom the charges
are made.
After waiting an hour the Council passed
resolutions denouncing the Ledger's
charges as untrue and maliciously made
for political purposes. The last resolution,
however, joins in request that Grand
Jury be called to investigate city officials.
1t is now quite certain that a jury will be
called.
The fight has brought out the allegation
that the Finance Committee made secret
agreement with the bank containing the
largest amount of city money by which
the committee last September gave the
bank one year to pay. This bank also put
up collateral security to the amount of
$257, 900, its city deposits amounting to
nearly $300,O0o The committee an
nounced that the securities were "gilt-
edged" but to-day it developed that they
consist of promissory notes and second
mortgages on real estate that were past
due. This bank is alleged to have given
special favors to councilmen.
The Chamber of Commerce is trying to
disentangle the eity's financial affairs.

The Lunenburg Prisoners.

The purpose of Gov. O'Ferrall in his
action in reference to the Lunenburg
prisoners was to protect them from un-
lawful violence and to do it, if possible,
without expense to the State, and he
was advised by the Attorney General
of the State that there was no neces-
sity to return them to Lunenburg, and
was informed by Judge Mann, special
Commemorative Attorney of Lunen
burg county, that they did not want
the prisoners unless their presence was
necessary. Though some have raised
a great .hullaballoo about the action OF
the Governor, the purpose he was try
ing to effect-to keep the prisoners in
Richmond-is done by the Court of Ap-
peals. 1t is evident from all the cir.
cumstances that there was no purpose
to iptetfsTe with the judiciary.

iured

Last week, near Paducah, KY, Capt.
Thos. A. Goodman, who killed Col. H.
G. Parsons at Clifton Forge, was seri-
ously hurt by being mashed between
freight cars whilst engaged in coup
ling them. About months ago, he
left Richmond to take position as ex-
ira freight conductor on the Chesa-
peake and Ohio Southwestern railway,
branch line of the Big Four, which is
closely allied with the Chesapeake and
Ohio proper. 1t was while in the dis
charge of his duties as conductor that
he met with the accident referred to.
He was coupling some cars, when there
was a sudden lurch of the train back
ward, and he was caught between the
bumpers and terribly mashed about
the pit of the stomach and the lower
chest.
His wife and son left Richmond to at
tend his bedside as soon as news was
received there of the accident. His
C onditiou is deemed critical. The flu
ture home of his family will be in Ken

SENSATION AT BRIsToL.-A special

episode occurred in society and edu-

College, and at present a professor in
Southwest Virginia Institute, was
talking to friend on Main street
when King James, well-known young
gentleman of that city, accosted him
demanding an apology for an alleged
insult. A few words were passed
when James struck the Professor a
heavy blow in the face. Bystanders
interfered and stopped the affair, but
not until Sam Borson, who thought
his friend James was not getting fail
play, struck the Professor across the
head with his cane. None of the
blows are serious. The difficulty arose
out of the Professors asking James tc
discontinue smoking on the street Cal
conveying the young lady pupils tc
the college. James considered it ar
insult and demanded an apology

When were ever scarcity of money
and good times coincident? No mortal
man ever heard of the two existing
together. Good times don't make
money, but money makes good times
Wilmington, N. c., Star.
Money is a medium of exchange.
You can't force exchanges by increas-
ing the volume of the medium, just as
railroads rolling stock. There is no
scarcity of money. 1t simply has not
been circulating freely on account of
business depression, and revival of
activity will call it forth. Money is
the consequence, not the creator of
trade.-Norfolk Landmark.
That is the true idea, for as we have
time and again maintained, it is not
the quantity, but the active circula-
ton of money that is needed to make
times better. Money is but the agent
of exchange of commodities, and ex-
cept when thus used is of no value
whatever. Money unused is as worth
less as chips, and the more rapidly it
is circulated, the more valuable it be-
comes. If its circulation be increased
teu times, one dollar will pay as much
as ten dollars. There is more money
in the country than eyer before, but it
is not circulated, and hard times are
the consequence. A million of dollars
unused is of no more value than q
million of stones, and would do the
country no more good. The function
OF money is to effect exchanges, and
when not thus used it is totally value
less. Money should never be kept
still, but should be kept rapidly NOV
ing-going from one person to another.
The good 1t will do is in proportion to
its rapidity of circulation.
