Money Measure.

Money is not only a measure Of
values but representative Of values
as we'll. In this it differs from a
yardstick. The latter measures but
does not represent. Two dollars
measures, let us say, the value of a
days work. 1t also represents a
days work. At the close of the
day the workman goes up for his
wage. He wants food and clothing.
That is what he has been working
for. But it would be manifestly
inconvenient for him to receive
fresh meat which might spoil before
he could carry it home, or other
things which he might not be Just

NEW YORK BANKS.
Statement of the Clearing House For
Five Days.

Five L(tSs
NEW YORK, May 30.-The statement
of the New York clearing house banks
for five days ending May 20, while it
shows an increase in the amount of
Idle cash in bank vaults, is still favor
able in several particulars. The ex-
hibit does not include the total opera
lions of the week, the withdrawals
for Saturdays gold export having been
made after the average has been COM
puted. The expansions of loans was
1,I56,000, and although this total is not
as large as might have been wished, it
probably reflects more mercantile de-
mand, as stock exchange business was
almost stagnant. The decline in money
rates probably accounts for the expan-
sion in part. The interior receipts have
been quite large during the week.
The deposit total, however, as was
the case with other items, does not re-
fleet actual conditions. Taken as a
whole the statement is better than
earlier indica lions. The total receipts
of the New York banks are now slight
ly in excess of $22, 100000, or about half
of the amount reported for the cores
ponding week last year. Total de-
posts are $6S,00o,0O0 less and loans are
100000 lower than for the CORES
ponding week in 1885, The banks have
gained about S12,000,000 in gold during
the present month but still hold $15,-
100000 less than on February 8, Just
before they began to turn gold into the
treasury for bonds.

WILL BE MEMORABLE.
RECORDS SMASHED IN THE INTER-
COLLEGIATE GAMES.
Remarkable Performances, Such rs
Even the Most Sanguine Scarcely
Hoped to Look FOr-Summaries of
Events.

NEW YORK, May S0.-The inter
collegiate athletic games OF this year
will be memorable for many years to
come. Yesterday there was a wedding
out in the trial contests, and today the
! track and in-field being in ffrst-class
condition, the breaking of fnter-colle-
gfate and other records was looked
for. The most sanguine of those inter
ested never hoped to see such re-
cord-smashing performance as that
made by B. j. Wefers of Georgetown
in the 900 yards dash. This wonderful
Splinter not only broke the fnter-col-
legiate record, but he succeeded in
making a worlds record of q LIS sec
onds, which for the distance beats all
professional and amateur perform
ances He won the 100 yards dash cas-
lily in 8 . seconds. equalling his own,
which is the worlds record. Four in
ter-cosiegiate records were broken,
namely, the 100 and 22O yards dash, the
high jump and half-mile run. The
mile walk was productive OF a very
exciting finish between Thrall Of Yale
and Fetterman of Pennsylvania, which
Thran won, hard pressed, by two
yards. Stewart of Pennsylvania pro-
tested the pole vault, and the question
wiz be investigated next week, but it
will not have effect on the result of
the championship, as Yale has more
than enough points to spare in case of
an adverse decision.

WAS A CRASH.
BEYOND THAT BUT LITTLE WAS

Twenty Thousand People Witness
Carry Away Tons OF Iron as Relics

COLUMBUS, O., May 30-The 10000
people who gathered at the Buckeye
park on the Columbus, Hooking valley
& Toledo road, this afternoon, have a
pretty well defined idea of railroad
collision. The forty-ton locomotives,
to each of which was attached three
coal cars and caboose, were run to-
hour. AS one of the engines was a
little faster than the other, preliminary
trials Of speed were made SO as to bring
the collision at certain point The
engine w. H. Fisher was started $500
feet south of the point of meeting the
e. l.. Streeter 5000 feet north The
engines were Started on the main track
and ran together on a siding at the
park. Both engines were started at
the same time, the engineers jumping
after opening the tflroltles. The col
hsion occurred at 4:10 p. m, the en-
gines meeting within 100 feet of the
calculated point. The immense crowd
was silent with awe as the engines
steamed into sight at the rate of forty
miles an hour. There was terrible
crash, and roar Of escaping steam as
reared UP in the air. The cars behind
them were telescoped, but the cabooses
were only partly wrecked. AS the
clouds of dust and steam obscured the
wreck, there was a tremendous shout.
and when the escaping steam subsid-
ed the people cfambered over the
wreckage and every loose bit of iron
that could be found was carried away
as relic. Both engines were a COM
plete wreck. Kinetoscopic views of bhe
collision were taken by New York ex-
perts. The only thing to mar the sue
cess of the affair was the accident to
the clerk in the general passenger
Office of the Hooking Valley. A flying
bolt struck him on the right leg be-
low the knee, breaking the bone. A
piece of iron also punctured his thigh
He was brought to the city on special
train.

The bolt of the free silver Prohibi-

first move of silver men to bolt all the

member of the national committee
from Kansas and close friend of ex

THE western people are united on
the silver question, Irrespective Of
party and there will be bolts from
the Republican and Democratic con-
ventions if the gold standard is adop-

eastern dictation. There is a general
understanding of this kind west. We
will not sacrifice prohibition, but L be-

WILL ooMPErE WITH THE EAST.

SAN FRANCISCO, May 3O-The Cal
ifornia State Pharmaceutical society
has decided to establish a laboratory
here for the manufacture of many
medicines that they now purchase in
the east. Large eastern firms sell to
California druggists prepared articles,
such as liniments, cougfSmixtures etc,
to the value of several hundreds Of
thousands of dollars annually. It is
stated that the formulate of the differ
ent patented medicines are well known
to all druggists and can be easily and
as perfectly made here as elsewhere,
and at one-half the cost.

Island OF Crete creates much interest
here. The Cretans, it is said, are de-
termlned not to yield until their griev-
ances are redressed. Advices from
Greece show that the Cretans have
numbers of
SYMPATHIZERS AMONG THE
GREEKS,
and that the latter are preparing to
assist the insurgents in Crete Since
the arrival of the foreign warships at
Canea there has been a cessation of
the disturbance in that town. The
Turkish government has issued a de-
NAL that serious disturbances have
occurred, which, in view of the we'll
known facts in the case, is classed as
absurd. The porte declares that the
whole affair is simply an incident pro-
Voked by the CANVASS of the Russian
consulate at Crete, (Russian consulate
at Canea), who shot an unoffending
Turk. A small ARRAY, the Turkish add.
followed and about eighteen persons
were killed or wounded on both sides
Order. the porte continues, is now re-
stored. The Turkish note however,
does not refer to the garrison of Va
mos, which is surrounded by Cretan
insurgents and which will soon yield,
while the preposterousness of the re-
malnder Of the note is shown in the
fact that eighteen battalions of Turk
ish troops have been ordered to Crete
in order to reduce the insurgents to
submission by force of arms.
1t is reported this evening that the
Greek government has objected to
dispatch further troops to the Island
of Crete, and the ambassadors of the
powers at Constantinople are trying
to mediate in order to avoid further
bloodshed.
