BRAVE LIEUTENANT GATEwooD


 Rode Alone Into Geronimo's Camp and
 Demanded His Surrender.
 Lieutenant Charles B. Gatewood, Sixth cavalry, who was laid to his final rest at Arlington Saturday, had the reputation of being one Of the bravest men in the army. He was a native of Virginia, and was graduate of the military academy in the class of 1877. In February, 1878, he was assigned to the Sixth cavalry as a second heuten- ant, and served with that regiment at Fort Apache, N. M, until 1881. During that period he had command of a com pany of Indian scouts, and was fre- quently in the field in active operations against hostile Indians. He command ed the troops that were first on Vic toria's trail, on his outbreak in New Mexico, in May, 1879, being also engaged in action against them in the Miembres Mountains New Mexico: in the Guz- man Mountains, Mexico; San Mateo Mountains, New Mexico, and San An dras Mountains, New Mexico.
 He was on leave of absence and ab- sent sick to August IS, 1881, when he rejoined his command and commanded Indian scouts at Forts Apache, Arizo- na and Stanton. New Mexico, and in the field, taking an active part in every campaign in Arizona and New Mexi- co in which the troops were engaged up to the final surrender of Geronomo, the last of the Chiricachu Indians on the Warpath.
 On August A, 1886, he rode into Ger onimo's camp of hostile Indians, at the risk of his life, and, without any as- surance of a peaceable reception, de- manded their surrender through two friendly Apaches. The Indians agreed to surrender he remaining with them until they came up with and surrend- cred to General Miles, September 4 fol- lowing
 He was commended in general orders for his services in the action against the hostile Chircachua Apaches in the Sierra Madre Mountains, for his ser vices in connection with Geronimo's surrender and tor bravery in boldly and alone riding into Geronimo's hostile camp.
 In addition to his other duties, he was on July "A, 1883, charged with the man. agement of Indian affairs on the north ern part of the Apache reservation, to preserve peace and quiet among the White. Mountain Apaehes, about 1900 in number.
 He was on duty as A. D. c. to Gener- al Miles for four years, and rejoined his regiment October g. 1890, and serv- ed with it at Fort Wingate, New Mex ico, in the field in South Dakota, in operations against hostile Sioux Indi- ans at Pine Ridge agency and vicinity While serving at Fort Mckinney, Wy oming, on May IS, 1892, he was severe ly injured by the premature explosion of a blast of powder while preparing a charge with which. to blow up one of the barracks at the post during fire.

A More Confident Tone Characteristics the
 Stock Market.

New York Aug. 31-7A more confident tone characterized the railway and miscellaneous share speculation to-day and business was also on a larger scale. At the opening. there was a slight peril cd of hesitancy, cables having report cd American securities slightly lower there
 An announcement of the further en- gagement of $3,600.0o0 gold abroad for shipment to New York soon brought about decided change In sentiment, and the market ruled strong until late i'll the day. There was extensive cov- ering of shorts, and even commission houses had a little more to do The great factor at work however, was the importation of gold, the amount now on the way and the arrivals of last week footing up the large total of $1S,- 000. .000
 This it is expected. will relieve the tension in money, and some operators in consequence were disposed to cover up their short contracts and assume risks on the bull side. No clearing house loan certificates were called for. and from present appearances it Is not likely that any will be issued This is also having it's influence with the trad ing element.
 The rise in prices ranged from F to 3ss per cent, the latter in Tobacco, which advanced from 58 to COTS. Man haitian, Sugar, the grangers, Lake Erie and Western preferred and Lackawan- na gained 1N to 211a per cent.
 During the afternoon trading was less active, and near the close money jumped to 12 per cent bid At the same time, sterling exchange showed a tendency to strengthen actual rates, re- covering fractionally, thus reducing the profits on gold in ports The re- suit was that some of the smaller bulls on stocks decided to take their profits, and their sales brought about gener- al reaction of A@1A per cent.
 At the close, however, the market was firm in tone. Net changes show advances of ts@2h per cent. on the day Louisville and Nashville lost x per cent. on selling for London ac- count. In the inactive issues Illinois Steel fell 21a to 301a and recovered to 3SM@37 Minnesota Iron dropped to 40 and rose to 43@41. Lead preferred advanced to 30, and Metropolitan Traction 315 to 911s.y

Attention Is again sharply called to the popu-
lation question in France by the publication Of
the corrected returns OF the census which was
taken in March last. From these 1t appears that
the total poulaton OF the Republic Is only 3S,-
DDS, 900. That Is an increase Of only 13S.S19
since the census Of 1891 or 27.1G4 a year This
indicates n state Of affairs for which no parallel
is to be found elsewhere in the civilized world.
1t is not that mortality in France is exceptionally
high, for it is not; the death rate is probably no
higher than the average in Western Europe.
Nor is it that there has been any extraordinary
amount of immigration. for there has not de-
spite the acquisition of new colonial empires.
Frenchmen still cling to the Fatherland more
faithfully than any other European people.
The secret of the trouble is found unmistall-
ably and exclusively, in the abnormaly low
birth rate. which IS now annually only about Do
In the thousand At the beginning Of the pres
ent century it was 81. Then there were twenty
four Departments with birth rate of from 80
10 40. Now there are none with rate above
80 and in some it is as low as H. Those figures
tell the whole disastrous story. Or. if anything
more be needed, it is found in this fact. that the
only actual increase in population is now in cities
and large towns. already congested and unwhole-
some In the country the population Is steadily
decreasing The net result u.s. that while at the
beginning of the century the population Of
France was nearly double that Of Great Britain,
the latter is to-day the larger. At the time Of
the Revolution the population Of France was 30
per cent larger than that Of Germany but to-day
the population Of Germany is the larger by 80
per cent.
Nor can French statesmen console themselves
with the theory that character Of population
counts more than mere numbers 1t Is only too
evident that the guilty Of the French people
is also beginning 10 decriorate. This Is ac-
counted for, In part. by the fact. already men
toned. that the urban population Is increasing
at the expense of the rural lis result is seen
in this other fact recently brought out in Stats
tics with convincing force. That France Is being
Outstrlpped by her rivals in trade and commerce
and manufactures With singularly fertile
soil and genial climate with unsurpassed adyan-
tages Of situation, with n system Of popular own
ershlp Of the land which Is supposed 10 he the
most perfect in the world. and with wealth sur
passing that Of almost If not quite every other
naion-a high English authority recently called
