GOLD AND SILVER PRODUCED.
The Amount Is Sufficient for all National
Needs.

Needs.
The official figures of the worlds
gold and silver production for 1894, as
furnished by Mint Director Preston,
do not support the argument of the
free silver advocates that the world is
suffering from deficiency of money
of final payment" Both gold and sill
yer are money of final payment, and
the world managed to get larger
supply of these metals in 1894 than in
any previous year in its history.
The estimate made by the mint bu-
reau last year of the gold product of
the world for the year put the amount
at $16s, 900, 900; the official figures make
it SlSl, ,000, 900, an amount $25, 900, 600 in.
excess of any previous years output.
During the current year production
has thus far gone on at rate which
justifies an estimate of 100000, 600, or
further increase of nearly SEQ, 900, 900.
The increase in the output of silver,
in spite of the continued decline in
price, has kept pace with the increase
of gold. In 1893 the silver mines broke
the record with production of $780,
900, 900, an increase of nearly $13, 000,-
900 over 1892. But in 1894 the product
was $214, 100000, the great increase
coming from the South American and
Central American silver-using coun-
tries OF course in estimating the
silver production in dollars we con-
tinue to use the old rate of 10 to /.
The capacity of the silver-using
countries of the world to absorb silver
and use it for currency seems to be
equal to the capacity of the gold-using
countries to take up the gold supply.
Both metals are needed, or they would
not be mined. Both metals are used
under varying conditions in the do
mestic commerce and international
| exchanges of different countries.
, There is no scarcity of either metal.
There is limitation on the use OF
silver which is unnecessary and re-
strictive in it's operations and which
should be removed. 1t can be removed
only in one way, and that is by inter
national agreement.-N. Y. World.

noon on writ of habeas corpus prayed

Mr.. and Mrs. Tofte are separated. and
during the pendency OF petition for the
guardianship of the boy by his mother,
the child was permitted to remain in the
custody of the father, the mother having
permission to see it once day. Tofte
refused to let his wife see her boy at all,
and she applied for writ of habeas
corpus, which was made returnable on
Friday. He then came into court with
out the child, claiming that he had been
unable to produce him, because he was
out in the country. Judge Clark then
continued the hearing until yesterday
afternoon, and then Tote did not show
up at all. Unless he has placed him self
beyond the jurisdiction of the court, he
will be severely punished for contempt.
The mother, who had anxiously awaited
the arrival of her child, at last broke out
in bitter tears when she saw that Tofte

I could not tell whether he had bit
up his sleeve for a finish. Well, to
cut a long story short, we raced neck
and neck and don't think we ought
to have won, but Gamboge cut it,
when the pinch came, and swerving
towards the stands, allowed Rear
Admiral, who was about done for, to
win by half length. Did get the

got Messy to lay him another big bet
