The German Emperor seems dis
posed to take the war with England
off our Uncle Samuel's hands. There
is a great deal more likelihood of
trouble between England and Ger
many than there is between England
and the United States.

The figures printed in the news
papers showing the magnitude of the
fire insurance business controlled in
this country by English companies,
furnish some food for thought. The
annual cash premiums received by
these companies aggregate upwards
of $41, 100000, and adding rents
and other receipts to this sum we
have total of over $43, 100000. A
great deal might be said about this
foreign insurance business, but the
figures above give some idea of the
tremendous aggregate.

Hotel men to the number of about
twenty five responded to Landlord
Doyle's appeal for a gathering at
Montpelier last week to devise means
for mutual protection" The other
seventy-fve who had signed Doyle's
circular were conspicuous by their
absence. Mr.. Doyle made the princi-
cipal speech of the occasion, during
which he said 1.-THE prohibitory
law stands as it is, because it has
never been opposed. The temperance
fanatics have always had their own
way. The temperance laws as they
stand to-day are harmful. Nine
tenths Of the liquor prosecutions in
this state are brought through malice
or love of gain, and very few through
love of temperance" No organize
tion was eff 4cted, but it is said that
a meeting for "further agitation
will be held at White River Junction
in the near future. AS a success this
meeting did not pan out" very

The result of Secretary Callisle's
call Tor popular loan" of $780,
100000 will test whether it is practi-
cable to repenish the gold reserve by
this means. Of the success of popu-
lar loan for ordinary purposes there's
never been any question. The people
of the United States are not only able
but willing to subscribe many times
$10O,O00,O00, if such a sum were
needed, to support the government.
That fact was conclusively demon
strated by the manner in which they
came to the financial rescue of the
government during the rebellion.

| LIZ WllL Tie treasury llStca-. or the nDfe-
holder?
Secretary Carlisle: If that policy
had been adopted at the beginning OF
resumptlon-and l am not saying this
for the purpose of criticising the action
of any of my predecessors Or anybody
else-but If the policy Of reserving to the
government at the beginning of resump-
ton the option of redeeming in gold or
had been followed, I believe ii
would have worked beneficially, and
there would have been no trouble grow
ing out of 1t, but the secretaries Of the
treasury from the beginning Of resump-
ton have pursued a policy OF redeeming
In gold or silver at the option of the
holder Of the paper. and If any secretary
had afterwards attempted to change
that policy and force silver upon q mar
who wanted gold or gold upon a mar
who wanted silver, and especially If he
had made that attempt at such a critical
period as we have had in the last two
years. my Judgment is it would have
been very disastrous"
From the s~ecretary's answer It will be
seen that the fault does not lie with the
greenbacks I'M treasury notes, but
rather with the legislative officers who
have seen fit to surrender a right which
should have been exercised for the pro
lection of the interests Of the people,
We are told that any attempt upon the
part OF n government to redeem It's
obligations in silver would put q premi-
UNI upon gold, but why should it7 The
Bank of France exercises the right to
redeem all bank paper in either gold OF
silver, and yet France maintains the
parity between gold and silver ut the
ratio Of 151a to i, and retains in clrcula-
ton more silver per capita than we do
In the United States.
1t may be further answered that our
opponents have suggested no feasible
plan for avoiding the dangers which
they fear. The government must either
exercise the right to redeem its obliga-
tons in silver when silver is more con
venlent, or 1t must retire all the silver
n silver certificates from circulation
and leave nothing but gold as legal ten
der money. Are our opponents Willing

Louis Heinrich's Remains Laid at Rest
Yesterday.

The funeral of Louis Heinrich, the
unfortunate young man who fell from a
balloon last Friday evening at Sixteenth
and X Streets, and died the following
morning, took place yesterday morning.
His remains were followed to the grave
by the members of Monroe's Circus,
with which he was connected
1t was a touching sight, that little
band of mourners moving through the
streets toward the cemetery, escorting
the lifeless form of their late comrade to
his last resting place in a far-off and
strange land. No father, mother, sister,
brother or wife were there to kiss the
death-cold brow of the one to be laid be-
meath the sod-none but the friends
with whom he had travelled from his
Eastern home to the farthermost limit
of the continent We're present to perform
for the unfortunate youth the last sad
rites for the dead.
Though a stranger here, the sad cir
cumstances attending the death of Louis
Heinrich were known to all, and as that
little funeral cortege moved out through
the city on the bright Sabbath morning
| toward the cemetery, hundreds of per-
sons stood and looked on reverently and

STOLEN WHEEL.
Frank n. Jones' Store Robbed Early
Yesterday Morning.

The bicycle store Of Frank NJ. Jones,
on J, between Seventh and Eighth
streets, was entered some time on Sat
urday night, and a S100 Rambler bicy-
Gle stolen.
Mr.. Jones closed his place of busi-
ness at II o'clock, and at that time he
and q friend remarked upon the ap-
pearance of the wheel, which was sus-
pended from hooks in the show win
dow
When the store was opened yesterday
morning the wheel was gone. 1t would
seem that the thief must have entered
through the door by means of a private
key as none of the windows mad been
tampered with, and all of the doors
We're found locked.
Mr.. Jones is inclined to believe that
one of the many men he has employed
at different times within the last few
months, and who We're supplied with
keys, took advantage of the occasion
by making, or having made a duplicate
key with which to enter the store at
will.
Nothing else in the store was dis
turbed, so far as could be ascertained,
and the fact that an incandesccnt lamp
was lighted in the window would lead
to the belief that there was confejer-
ate on the outside.
An ordinary carpenters chisel was
found in the back part of the store,
showing that the thief intended to
force his way out at the rear if it be-
came necessary. Otherwise there ap-
pears to be no clue to the burglary.
The stolen wheel is a 90 Rambler
racer. No. 132S1, 24-inch frame, black
enameled, ram s-horn handle bars, IL
irch G.. & ]. racing tires, wood rim
and - gear. Mr.. Jones offers reward
Of $50 for the arrest and conviction Of
