Everett Times; The tendency in the East
is toward a lower rate OF interest and alb
solute security when loans are made. Ten
per cent interest has lost its charms for
the average money lender. He very soon
thinks there is something wrong or such
q rate OF interest would not be offered.
Any one who has had any experience in
placing loans In the money centers Of the
East knows that a per cent. bond viii
find buyers much more quickly than a 10
per cent. bond. The sc curity OF each may
be equal. but the careful investor is
afraid to invest in any security that
draws an unreasonable rate OF interest

CORY has cost them many millions of
money. Moneyed men had great faith in
Washington but that faith has been badly
shaken by the triumph of Populism.

Those Issued by Republic of
Cuba "Go'' In the Mails.

washington. Jan IA The appear:
auce Of the stamps of the so called
Cuban republic 10 the United States
mails has caused much comment here
and was the cause Of some discussion
at the postof6ce department to-day as to
whether such stamps could be recog-
oized as proper for the transmission Of
mats into the United States. as this
government has not recognized Cuba as
a free aud Independent couotry. This is
probably the first csse of its kind
where insurgents have established their
own pos,of6ces and used their owu
stamps, which were transmitted in the
mails to the Uoited States. At the
postcfice departm eut it was stated that
these stamps we're good so far as the
United States was concerned, as our
postal laws required only cent stamps
be properly cancelled and the envelope
containing mail matter bear the post
mark of a regular postoflce. These
regulations nave Deen compile0 with SO
far as the department knows. Had
they not been admissible. the letters
bearing these stamps would have been
marked With the letter II" at the re-
ceiviog office 10 this country, meaning
'sax collect" The department knows
nothing about the poa:of6ce stamped ou
the envelope, except ,ha. it is in Span
ish territory aod Spain is in the ioter-
natiooai postal union.
The stamps might give rise TO a deli
cate diplomatic question iu which the
posteffi:e department wou!d take no
part, but refer the matter to tho dept
ment of state for settlement.
