New York Herald. (Dcm.): What's
the matter with the United States?
The trade reports OF all other coun-
tries indicate activity and prosperity,
while we are depressed and despond-
ent.
In England they have expanding
trade. a marked decrease IN the volume
OF commercial failures and buOyancy
on tho stock exchange. The movement
OF prices on the Paris bnurse during
the first half OF the year has been IA
vorable. In Germany business Is I'M
proving. Even Argentina has recovered
from the CRISIS and Is forging ahead.
What's the matter with the United
States?
We have no war, no pestIlence, no
visible calamity OF any kind. Our nat
ural resources are rich as ever. the
earth has yielded %abundanty Of its
fruits and our people are skIlltul and
enterprislng as OF old. and yet a blight
seems to have settled over the land
mills at a standstill. labor only par
TALLY employed. apprehension among
manufacturers and traders and para
iyzing depression in Wall street.
1t Is all due to dlStrust, caused by the
men who entertain the delusion that
lowering the standard by which values
and business are measured would in
crease the volume OF both. About 95
per cent OF all the country's business Is
done on credit. and credit Is tho on
spring OF confidence. Uncertainty, dis
trust are fatal TO Il. In their mis-
guided efforts to better themselves the
advocates OF free coinage have slain
credit and the spirit OF enterprise. and
have created conditions which bring
hardship not only upon themselves, but
upon the whole country.

WILL LICK HIM SURE.
Sharkey Says What He Will Do to
Corbett TO Please the
Public.

Thomas Sharkey, the hero of the hour,
spent some of his time and hard earned
coin last evening leaning over the Palace
Hotel bar.
At best the now famous sailor lad is not
handsome. But, with a right eye made
black and blue by Corbett's punches, a
few abrasions on the forehead and cheeks,
also a swollen red nose. he was in i'll keep
ing with the rich and tasty surroundings.
Sharkey was not drinking. He never
drinks as drinking is usually understood.
He might take small glass of beer,
which would drive an ordinary seaman
crazy for more, but he never touches hard
liquor. He was smoking a large cigar
with evident delight and was entertaining
an admiring throng.
Sharkey is not one of those fighters who
are full of mystery. He has no "Coups de
Jarnac' is reserve, and he is as free as
the air with all he knows and feels.
He rehearsed, his battle with Corbett all
over again for his friends, and also told
them what he expected to do with the
champion when they next meet in the
ring.
incidentally Sharkey displayed his high
regard for the dear public.
"They are my friends" he said. "They
showed it last night. Everybody knows
can whip Corbett, and he knows it, too.
II am trying to make finisn-fght agree
ment with him, and you caniust bet that
will fetch it on. There will be no monkey
work with me like there was with Fitz-
simmons.
''If Corbett tries it with me I'll meet
him on the street and lick him anyhow
just to pie ase the public"
