FOR GOLD

| FOR GOLD.
/ The treasury state
lment of June /, 1896,
Shows that the total
amount of money in
lcirculation is 81, ,521,-
i.5,4, 22S3, or $21 30 per
Icaplta. III 1873 the
lper capita circula-

Iof gold would be
driven out of circu-
lation, thus bringing
labout a real n
lrency contraction.
j On the contrary,
with depreciating
dollars, a sufficient
lily higher rate Will
be charged to cover
the probable loss in
value from deprecia-
ltion. This is one OF
the reasons why in
ItereSt to-day IS
higher in sill
Byer than in gold
standard countries.
Interest is really the
hire of capital, not
iof money, and prin-
lcipal and interest
returned should
Iequal in value the
lcapital loaned plus
tits hire.
The decline in
value of farm pro-
ducts has been due
ito the tremendous
increase in produc-
Ition, cheapened
transportation by
rail and water, and
the opening up OF
new sources of sup
ply for meat, grain,
icotton, etc, in India,
Australia, Egypt
and South America.
i The value of gold
! and silver, like that
Iof iron or tin, is reg
Iulated by the cost of
production and the
. demand for them
for all purposes.
Stamping STA
grains of silver "one
dollar" would not
increase its comm er-
lcial value.
/ An increase in
prices due to the use
of a cheaper metal
as the standard Of
value would not add
l cents worth to the
wealth Of the coun-
try.
The creditor class
includes every man
and woman who has
q dollar in a bank, a
policy in an insur-
ance company, a
share in a building
; and loan association
or money loaned out
to neighbors. The
debtors include the
great railway, bank
ing, insurance and
lother corporations.
l. Making goods cost
; more would newt
; ably lead to a falling
, off in the demand
for them, as con-
. sumerS are never

things merely be-
cause they are dear
Ter. AS manufacture
ing enterprises de-
pend on the sale of
their products, high
ler prices which
checked consump-
ton would greatly
linjure industry.
The real strength
of the silver delu-
sion is in the union

How George law Failed TO Collect
Judgment Against Miss Mack.

How George law Failed to Collect n
Judgment Against Miss Mack.
NEW YORK, May 1s.--Miss Josie Mack
has had revenge on George Law. once
street car magnate. and has gone to sea-
bright to reioice. She has worsted Mr..
Law in business, in which he Is presumed
to be particularly strong, as would be ex-
pected of four time millionaire.
Mr. Laws business speculation was In
one sense the outcome OF the breach OF
promise suit brought by Miss Mack. She
went to Newport and rode on the Law tai
lyho as the afiianoed sweetheart of George
Law. When, after that, he married some
body else, she sued him for damages.
Hardly had Che breach Of promise suit
been placed on the court calender when
Law sued Miss Mack to collect So, 900
which he had advanced to her on notes.
Miss Mack could not deny she owned the
amount named, and there was money in
sight. This money was in the shape Of a
trust fund of $4,000. which was to become
Miss Macks the day she was "a. The
millionaire got judgments against the girl.
w. W. Badger of l7S Broadway was the
trustee of the money that was to be Miss
Macks The birthday came last week and
Miss Mack was possessed Of $40. 600 In her
own flBnL Ino DlIlnuhys ike Obnof uhyhi
began at midnight. II the men with che
law judgments had been on hand at that
moment, they could have levied on enough
to cover the sS. 600 and interest and costs.
But the law officers slept. 1t was an op-
portunity missed Ten minutes later the
$4,000 was safe and has been ever since.
Inquiries made in the endeavor to find
the money have been fruitless. When
Francis w. Wellman, Miss Mack lawyer
was asked about il, he smiled and replied,
Young man, we didn't sleep" When
Mr.. Badger. the trustee, was questioned
he put his left hand over his left optic and
winked the other eye.
Miss Mack is too busy with the breezes
at Seabright to say anything about the
money. She expects to pay Mr.. Law out Of
the proceeds of the breach of promise suit,
which will be tried next fall

The Most Destructive Confagrntion In
Years Visits the Georgia Metropolis.
ATLANTA. May 1S-The most serious
conflagration this city has experienced in
ten years broke out in a block in the CEN
ter of the city bounded by the tracks of
the Southern railway and Prior, Decatur
and Collins streets early this morning.
The Markham House, adjoining the Un-
ion depot, and one Of the best known ho-
tells in the country, was totally destroyed,
involving loss of about $75, 600 on build
ing and furniture; covered by an insur-
ance of $50, 900.
Milan & Pattersons livery stable, in
which the blaze originated; Patterson's
undertaking establishment, row of small
rookeries on Decatur street and a half
dozen houses on Collins street occupied
by the demimonde were completely con-
sumed. At midnight the fire had made
complete sweep of the block and was
threatening to spread across Decatur
street. The total loss on the Markham
House block is probably about $500, 600;
largely covered by insurance.
