power, when, in other words, it requires
more of all other commodities on the ave-
rage to buy gold, gold being the standard,
then gold has appreciated. This is the
only way of ascertaining and measuring
tne rise or fall of gold, viz:
TO COMPARE 1T WITH THE
GENERAL LEVEL OF COMMODITIES.
You cannot detect the change in the STAN
dard by comparing it with itself. Howso-
ever elastic a cord may be, it is always
exactly as long as itself. The premium
on gold today in the world is disguised in
It's own absoluteness. The only measur.
or 1t is the great mass of other things If
they have fallen gold has risen.
AUTHORITIES QUOTED.
Ihese conclusions agree with those of
the greatest English economists. Said
Adam Smith, the father of English DO
nt1cal economy: Gold and silver, how
ever, like every other commodity, vary
In their value, are sometimes cheaper and
sometimes dearer, sometimes of easier
and sometimes of more difficult purchase.
The discovery of the mines
OF America diminished the value of gold
and silver in Europe" CWealth of Ma
t1ons, Worthington ed, o. "a and 26)
John Locke, the great philosopher, in
MS treatise on 1.-THE Value of Money!"
said: by which means it comes to
pass that the intrinsic value (of gold and
sllver) is nothing but the quantity
which men give or receive of them, For
tney having, as money, no other value
out as pledges to procure what lone
wants or desires; and they procuring
what we want or desire, only by their
quantity, it is evident that the intrinsic
value of silver and gold used in COM
merce is nothing but their quantity"

the community, and the same amount Of
goods to be sold, less money altogether
would be given for them, and they would
be sold at lower prices"
WHAT CITIZEN SAYS.
Robert Giffen, the ablest champion of
the gold monometallists, holds this Ian.
guage in his "Chapter on Standard
Money! I'm this sense, to say that the
quantity of money regulates prices is
only the same thing as to say Of any ar
ticle that is bought or sold, that it's guam
tity is a material factor in Determining
it's value" cease Against Bimetallism,"
p. 21S.)
In view of this testimony Of the facts
and of the worlds admittedly greatest
writer's upon the subject, it is interesting
to read in the gold press Of Minnesota
and elsewhere, as we'll as in the utter
ances of certain professors who have vol
unteered their opinions, that really 1t
doesn't make much difference about the
quantity of our money if only the quality
is satisfactory to a few gentlemen who
happen to have cornered the most of the
right quality; that indeed business re-
quires almost no money at all, and that,
dppdleully, we COulO get on very well
even if our stock of money dwindled quite
to the vanishing point, provided we would
only stock up thoroughly in confidence"
This phase of the subject will be treated
presently.
THE MAIN POINT.
We have seen how gold may appreciate
and we have seen that if it does appre-
ciate the evidence Of it will be found in g.
general decline Of prices. Before pro-
ceeding in the light Of the principles we
have thus examined, to ascertain what
reason there was to expect that the leg-
islation of 1878, and thereabouts would
be followed by an appreciation Of gold,
and to set forth the evidence establish
ing that fact, it is necessary to call
pointed attention to principle perhaps
the most vital in the whole range Of mon
etary discussion; one whose failure to be
understood by the gold advocates renders
large part of their arguments wholly
without any application. I refer to the
distinction between primary or funda-
mental money, and representative or
credit money. Here again we may obtain
assistance by recourse to a study of
what has been the actual method Of mon
etary development in society.

HAUTERlVE CLUB.

Mr.. Walter U. Earle, the well-known
club steward and manager, formerly with
the Union and Squantum clubs and Ath-
letic Association, has secured the grounds
OF the Union Club at Hauterive, in East
Providence, just below Silver Spring, and
is soliciting names for club to be
called the Hauterive Club, named after
the place, to consist OF membership OF
300 or more,to meet once week on such
day as the club may select during the
summer season, for a Rhode Island clam
bake and social recreation. The mem ber-

AGAIN AT WORK.
The Geneva Mills Start Alter a Iona
Shutdown.
Several Weavers Return TO Their Looms
Without Molestation.

This morning the Geneva Worsted
Mills started up in part after long shut
down, caused partially by the
recent strike and partly because
OF dull business, which Mr.. Uhlman
says was never worse than at present. He
started the mills to get out samples, and
several of his old weavers, who did not
strike, went to work of their own accord.
Trouble was feared on the part of
the striking operatives and five police
men were on hand. There was no trouble,
however, beyond few Of the
20 persons standing around the gate
calling the eight men "scabs" and jeering
at them. This is the extent of the sensa-
tion caused by exaggerated reports this
morning.
The weavers went to dinner at II o'clock
and were not molested, nor is it thought
they will be, the residents Of Wanskuck
having too great regard for the law and
other mems privileges.
How long the mills will run is not
known, Mr.. Uhlman stating that it will
depend wholly on the condition of busi-
ness.

WILDE WAITS.
Arthur Taylor to Be Tried
First.
The Two Offenders Brought Into Old
Bailey Court Today.
Judge Wills Allows the Poet TO Renew
His Ball of $12,5OO and Depart.

LONDON, May 20.-Ths Old Bailey court
was crowded today at II o'clock in the
morning, when Justice Wills, ac-
compsnied by the Lord Mayor
Of London, Right Hon. Sir Joseph
Renals, and several Aldermen, took their
seats upon the bench preparatory
to the commencement of the SEQ
ond trial OF Oscar Wilde, who
is charged with serious misdsmeanors.
Wilde had previously been driven to the
Old Bailey. He was accompanied by Lord
Douglas of Hsw!ck and the Rev. Stewart
Hedlam, his two bondsmen. He looked
haggard, but had apparently
improved in health since his
release on bail, and walked smilingly into
the prisoners dock, where he took his
stand beside Alfred Tsyor, who is charged
with similar offenses.
Sir Edward Clarke, @. c., counsel for
Wilde, Immediately made an elaborate
argument in favor OF having Wilde tried
separately. The judge agreed to this and
decided to try Taylor first.
Sir Edward Clarke then dwelt at
length on the great injustice which
was done to his client by having
TO wait while Alfred Taylor was
tried. But, in spite Of the ar
gument of his counsel, Wilde looked only
too pleased as he stepped from the dock,
and the judge allowed his bail to be re-
newed and he was again released from
custody after filing his personal bond in
sl2,500 and finding two sureties, Lord
Douglas Of Hawick and the Rev. Stewart
Hedlam, in $3.50 each.
1t is now probs be that Wilde's case will
go over until the next session of the
Central Criminal Court and there
is evidently but slight chance
OF his conviction. In conse-
qence, indignant comment is heard
on all sides at the turn events have taken.
In the meanwhile the trial of Alfred
Taylor will proceed.

of the late Leland Stanford will be
tried in the United States

murrer late in that month. An agree
ment to this effect has been re-
ported between Russell Wilson,
who represents Mrs. Stanford, and
l.. X. McKissy, special counsel for the
Government. The agreement was made
because OF Mrs. Stanford's anxiety to
have the case out of the way, for 1t stands
over her as perpetual menace and hamp-
ers the fullfilment of the purpose speci-
fed in her usband's will.

River Yesterday.

AAAttE- htottiuay.
The manager of the Continental Steam
boat Company, Colonel Atwell at Fields
Point, and genial George Is. Boyden were
perfectly satisfied with the patron
age that was accorded them
yesterday. The day was not just
as desired for an opening day, for it was
rather chilly for q trip down the river.
Colonel Atwell fed at least 500 and all
that can be said of the bill OF fare is that
it was as it has been in the past, and that
is the very best.
AT Crescent Park there were at least
5000 persons who went there to spend the
day, and many OF them partook Of dinner,
which included all that is usually found
on bill of fare at this season
OF the year. Mr.. Boyden has made
many improvements about this ia

being made, and still more contemplated.
