be able to convince him that you had
paid your debt in honest dollars? oh,
no. He would have a different idea of
honest money than that which he had
given you. Why is it that gold loses
nothing by melting? 1t is because
me law says you can
TAKE THE GOLD TO THE MINT
and have it stamped without any
charge; that is the reason for it. Sup
pose the law said that any man who
wanted a piece of gold coined should
pay five cents for the coming of every
dollar, what would then be the bull
lion value of gold in a dollar? Ninety
five cents would be its value, and upon
no other theory would any gold what
ever be coined, because if a man had
to pay five cents before a single dol
lar of gold bullion could be converted
into dollar worth 100 cents, he would
never have the bullion converted into
dollar, for he could sell that bullion
TO anybody for more than 80 cents, and
therefore, whenever you fix the charge
for miptage you make a difference be-
tween the bullion value and the coin
age value. Whenever you esta blish
free coinage you will pay that differ
ence. because under the free and I'M
limited coinage you want coin and you
want bullion to coin. You have bullion
coined. and if you want bullion you
may melt the com, and when you have
a right TO melt one into the other, at
any time and without charge there
would be no difference between the
two.
so, I say the men who talk aSbout
gold being honest, because when you
melt it, it loses nothing, forget that
characteristic is given by law, and yet

WAS LIKE A THUNDERBOL1'
PROFESSOR SHAW OF OXFORD og
 TIRE PRESIDENTS MESSAGE.

He Says That the Feeling in England Was
 One of Unutterable Astonishme ent--Uni-
 versal Opinion at First Was That 1t Was
 Sent Out for Political Purposes.
 Philadelphia, Jan. T.-Professor w. Hudson Shaw of Oxford, speaking to- day of the Venezuelan controversy, ex- pressed some opinions of the feeling over the question in his country that are at variance with the idea that pre- vails here of the position of Great Britain.
 T am only eight days from England, and was there when the war scare over the Venezuelan affair first start cd" he said. Being Q university ex- tension lecturer and constantly going from city to city and town to town I had unusual opportunities of meeting all classes of people in many sections of the country. I am sure know the sen- timent of the people. President Cleve- lands message came to the English people like a thunderbolt from a clear sky The feeling over there was one of unutterable astonishment that any trou- ble could ever occur between England and the United States. This feeling peryaded all classes. The feeling of English people for their American cou- sins is year by year becoming more sympathetic and among educated peo- pie in England the thought of a war with the United States seems impossi- ble. There is no single Englishman who does not accept the Monroe doc urine as laid down by President Monroe and what might be called the exten- sion to it which holds that no European power should encroach an inch on this continent This is, of course, what Eng lishmen as people think. It is not what the politicians say. The Vene- zuelan affair is entirely q government matter. The universal opinion at first was that President Cleveland's mes sage was sent out for politics. We be- lieve that the British government drew down MT. Cleveland's anger just ly. We also think that, perhaps, his letter could have been couched in more diplomatic language But we accept the justice of MT. Cleveland's claim. Lord Salisbury's action in refusing ar bitratiom is regarded as a political blunder by many a crime. by many right-thinking Englishmen. believe a great deal of good will come out of this trouble. I think it will be the cause of the formation of permanent arbitration court that can settle all such disputes between nations. Let England and America keep peace for thirty years longer and they can do1in- ate the world, forcing them to remain peaceful. A war would be ruinous to both and would only result in benefit to other nations"

supposed to know all about raiiroading
and railroad matters. The latter seeing
the verdancy of the new agent determined
TO play upon II and told him that he
should make requisition on headquar-
ters for red oil for his red lantern and
white oil for the ordinary lantern. The
new 1edged agent did as directed and
promptly received a supply of oil. To his
surprise he found II was white oil ana
that no red oil had been sent him. lie
immed lately wrote TO headquarters, CIV
ing notice that 1t had failed TO NIL his
requisition for red oil and urging imme-
diate attention TO the matter as the sup
ply on hand which happened TO be kept
In a red painted can, was nearly exhaust
ed. When this letter was received In
Providence IL caused a good deal OF mer-
riment in the railroad office, but II was
decided TO continue the joke. Accordingly
the agent was notified by letter that un-
fortunately the supply of red oil at Provi-
dence had been exhausted and directed
him TO apply TO New Haven TO have his
wants supplied. The agent followed In
structions and it was not until his letter
to the railroad authorities was well on It's
way that the wag who had started the
joke let light into the obtuse brain OF the
new made agent. Then the latter would
have given a months salary to get that
letter back, but IL was too late aud now

the answer to his latest petition for red

HEAVY RAIN FALL.
Work Of the Storm In This City and
Vicinity.

Up to o'clock this morning 800 inches
OF rain fell in Providence, showing the
storm to have been unusually heavy, al
though not unusually severe. IL threat
ened to do considerable damage shortly
after midnight Saturday, nevertheless, as
the few pedestrians who were abroad be-
tween II and / a. m. yesterday were well
aware The wind got move on about
that time and reached a velocity OF AZ
miles an hour. Umbrellas were turned
inside out and electric wires became
broken and crossed, causing exhibitions
of fireworks In some cases alike dangerous
to buildings and man. Wires were crossed
just over the platform scaffold around the
new building going up on the old Gros-
venor estate, or else insulation burned cff
and caused intermittent flashes to illum-
mate the postofiice
At ! o'clock yesterday morning the
wind took its departure In a measure and
almost took several housetops at the same
time. II did not stop at sheds. however,
and took the roof of that owned by Nor
cross Brothers, situated on the wharf at
the foot of ToCkwotton street.
The rivers were swollen badly, and out
in the Valley reports are numerous OF ex-
pense and labor entailtd by mill owners
and helpers. In town little damage was
done besides causing a few small wash
outs
