HUBBARD BROS. q CO.'S LETTER.
New York, June (Special) Local
rains fell in northern Texas this morn
ING as far south as Waco, bringing
many selling orders from the South
and Europe which nave caused de-
cline of from 10 to IL points from
yesterdays closing prices. The temper
OF the trade conTmues TO be very
bearlsh ON uhe outlook for the new
crop, though admitting that it is pos
sibie for une crop TO be seriously in
jured during the next ninety days.
But SO hong as crop accounts continue
favorable, the feeling will be THAT the
outlook points towards lower prices,

opinion is general, and it is
difficult TO lind any one who
holds "a contrary view, while
it is true that only one crop has
been known TO pass through the
summer without INJURY for many
years. The possibility of the effect of
crop scare does not now appear to be
considered. The bureau report to-
morrow is expected to be the best for
years. The market has been weak dur
ing the afternoon, apparently on large
outside selling, whicn is believed to be
for short account on the new crop, and
for long liquidation on the August
position. No further rains are report
ed from Texas this afternoon, but the
trade expects a lower market bo-mor-
row in expectation of good bureau
report. The only buyers have been

FORGERY,
$40 Secured on a Check.
The SmoOth-fngered" Gentleman
Suddenly Leaves Town.

"ChaS. tTyef,Ol hOSSidhu, D. O''iS az
the Cook Hotel" was the substance OF
an innocent personal that appeared in
the personal column of Mondays
JOURNAL. But it appears that Fryer
is not as innocent by any means as the
personal regarding his presence in the
city.
Monday morning the man called on
Rev. w. G. Kantner, pastor of the
Congregational church, and intro
duced himself as a man of consider
able capital in search of desirable pro
perty for the investment of his money.
He suggested that the reverend
gentleman give him letter of intro
duction to one or more Of Salem's sub
stantial business men. Rev. Kantner
was considerably interested in the
man by this time by the apparent ear
nestnesS of the individual and COM
piled with the request, granting him
an Introductory letter to Gilbert Bros.
the Commercial street bankers.
In the course of two hours the man
presented himself at Mr.. Gilbert's
place of business and went through
the same preliminary conversation he
had with DR.. Kantner, being ex-
tremely anxious to be informed of an
Investment that would insure satis-
factory results financially. When
about to bid "good day" he produced
check for S75 drawn on Tacoma
bank bearing the signature OF Rev.
w. c.. Kantner, Mr.. Gilbert refused to
cash the check since he doubted the
genuineness of the signature. The
stranger bid good morning and inn
mediately left the bank.
Shortly afterward he put in an ap-
pearance at Bush's bank when he pre-
sented the check to Jos. Baumgartner,
receiving teller, requesting that it be
cashed, Mr.. Baumgartner declined TO
comply with the request OF the
stranger, but suggested that check be
left there for collection. But Mr..
Fryer objected to this and as the only
means that remained for securing any
money on the worthless bit of paper,
suggested that he be given q small
allowance on the check. He was ac-
commodated to the extent Of $40 when
he properly endorsed the check and
returned to the Cook Hotel but he
has not since been apprehended.
The check was presented at the
Capital National bank before MI.
Kantner had endorsed it, but an ad-
vance was refused.
About an hour later Mr.. Gilbert
happened in Bush's bank and in
course of a conversation mentioned
the presentation of the check at his
place of business and inquired if the
same had been presented there, when
informed that it had he stated that
he had just seen DR.. Kantner on the
street, who denied having signed such
a check, but admitted that he had
granted the letter Of Introduction.
This proved the affair to be a clear
case of forgery and the police were
Immediately notified of the offense.
Outgoing boats and trains were closely
watched yesterday and today, but as
yet the man has not been appre-
hended, although it is hourly ex
pected.

has not driven bhe gold all out of the country.
 Egypt has the single gold standard and a per capita silver circulation of S3.2O, showing that gold has not driven the silver out of the country. Turkey has the bimetallic standard at 15Bto 1 and a per capita circulation of $2.27 gold and SIPS silver, neither metal showing any signs of driving the other out of the country. Something, how ever, has well nigh driven out both but it is not silver monometallism, be cause she hasn't it. F
 Portugal is a gold standard country with a per capita circulation of $7.45 gold and s486 silver. It was the first country in the world to adopt the gold standard after England This occurred in 1853. Her national debt has in- creased 100 per cent since that date Average wages paid artisans, r cents a day. Portuguese gold bonds are worth 26A per cent of their face in the London market, while Mexican sil- yer bonds are quoted at 941a.
 Norway, Sweden and Denmark are all gold standard countries and neither is especially noted for its prosperity ol the remunerative employment of its people Mexico and Japan coin silver at a ratio above 16 ito 1; all other coun- tries are below that ratio. The as sertion of gold standard advocates that Mexican silver would come to tho United States mints for coinage il case the hints are opened to silver is probably correct, owing to our lowea ratio.
 The proposition that the silver o any other country would come here fol coinage is absurd because it is wort1 more at nome than it would be here Japan might be an exception if it hat amy surplus silver and was not so ia away. ...

MONEY STANDARDS.

The Topeka, (Kan.) State Journal is asked the following question:
 What is the money standard of Spain. Egypt and Turkey? Some gold standard men are claiming that these countries are backward and stationary because they have the silver standard Is this true?"
 It is not true. Neither of the coun- tries named have the silver standard Spain has the bimetallic standard-sil- yer and gold at the ratio of 151a to l and yet has circulation in gold of s2.2S per capita, showing that silver
