Suicide.

street and First avenue, on viewing the body Of

Calvary Church on Saturday at the Morgue yes
terday. thought he identified her as Mrs. jose
phine Doriat. at whose fiat at Columbus avenue

seven years ago.
He said Mrs. Doriat was originally a lady's
maid in an English family. She married a
Frcnchman, from whom she was separated at
Bordeaux. She was very extravaganza, but had
some inventive ability which she turned to good
account.
Gebauer was not positive as to his identihca-
ton. and a second visit he paid to the Morgue
last night rendered him no more certain. He
said he had tried unsuccessfully to get o person
who would know positively If the suicide was

CONCERNING REPUTATION.
Is JustifabIe When Applied to Un-
inst and OnnresE5vP Coudtffous

Is JustifabIe When Applied to I'M
just and Oppressive Conditions.
The cry of "repudiation" and ian
archy" so PeTsistently INDUCED in by
the eastern gOldbug press against the
advocates of bimetallism, may not be so
potent a bugaboo as would appear upon
first thought Reputation of unjust
and oppressive conditions is not with
out either precedent or justification in
American history. The dumping Of
that tea into Boston harbor and the war
Of the revolution that followed were
cases of ''repudiation" which have with
stood the test of time and adverse crit
icism. The abolition of slavery is an
other instance of the kind which has re-
ceiyed the unqualified approval of every
civilized nation of the world. Legisla-
tive fat can never make a wrong right.
and when unjust and discTiminative
laws have doubled the purchasing power
of the dollar, while its debt-paying pow
er has not been increased in any de-
gree, it is right in line with the sturdy
American idea of equity and justice that
so monstrous a wrong to the debtor
class should be "repudiated" by such
legislation as will correct the evil.
Eight-tentbs of the vast Indebtedness
Of this country was contracted under q
bimetallic system, and it is anything
but reputation when the debtor de-
mands that he be allowed to discharge
his obligation under the same financial
conditions. The bimetallist is not q re-
pudiator, because be proposes to pay
his debt with a dollar Of equal purehas-
ing power with the one ne received,
Nor is he an anarchist, for he proposes
TO right his wrongs according TO the
constitution of the government under
which he lives.
So far as the financial affairs of this
country are concerned, at least, free and
unlimited coinage Of silver-the bimet
allism Of the constitution as 1t existed
prior 10 1S7S-is the only basis OF equity

vegetable and, of course, it plays most
important part in the cuisine of the
hidalgos and the dons. In the. coast
cities the people are more progressive
and fare better than they do in inland
places, no doubt because they are
brought more in contact with the

the present day Spain is the least

What effect the costly wars in Cuba

likely that the result will be a revOsu-

nobility are willing TO accept any EN-
ployment AS an illustration of this

when the national church loses. the
tyrannical hold it now has on all classes
of society. Naturally Spain has many
advantages and the soil is capable OF
the highest cultivation. As it is at pres

greater degree than other substances,
possesses d Stable, YalHs; unaffected by
supply aud demanas
AnsweT-Itis not true. Netting could
be more silly than the melting pot
test. So long as a certain amount Of
gold can always be freely coined into
dollar it must always be equivalent to
a dollar, but. as we all know, the value
or purchasing power Of a dollar may
rise and fall within wide limits, con
ditiened upon the amount Of money in
circulation as compared with the
amount of commodities in the market.
Give silver free coinage ana the melt.
ing pot test would apply TO silver equal
ly with gold. The increased demand
for gold occasioned by the denial Of
free coinage to silver has given an i'm
mensely increased value TO every dollar
in money based on the gold standard.
Q.-Is the quantitative theory OF
money generally held by political econ
omists7
Att is. John Locke, volume 5, page
49, says! "For the value Of money, in
general, is the quantity Of all the money
in the world in proportion to all the
trade" The report of the British bull
lion committee Of 1910 says! "An in
creased demand for gold and a scarcity
of that article viii make it more yalua-
bic in relation to all other articles. The
same quantity of gold viii purchase a
| greater quantity of any other article
than it did before; in other words, gold
viii rise" Ricardo, In his principles
of Political Economy" chapter 10, says:
''The demand for money is regulated
entirely by its value, and its value by its
quantity" .Gifen, in "a Chapter in
Standard Money" says; EN- this sense
to say that the quantity of money Tegu'
1ates prices is only the same thing as
/ to say of any article that is bought and
sold that its quantity is a material fac
tor in determining It's value"
Q-What is a prime requisite Of g
stable money standard?
A.-That the aggregate amount oi
standard money in use should increase
as nearly as possible in an equal ratio
with the increase of other forms Of
wealth and the demands of commerce
Q.-fs the annual increase in the vol
ume of gold money sufficient to render
that metal a stable, OF, in other words
Just and honest standard of values?
A.-Itis not. Commerce has for many
years been increasing at the rate Of
more than six per cent. per annum
while the amount of gold coin or bul
lion available for use in commercial
transactions has shown an increase o.
but Slight fraction over one per cent
! Q.-Under bimetallisih would the
present rate of production of both goit
and silver combined provide a sufheien
supply of standard money to keel
prices up to a scale that would proven
a constant appreciation in the purchas
ing power Of money, detrimental to tn
owners of all forms Of property saw
money and credits?
Att is not at all probable that I
would, but the depreciation of prop
erty, or "unearned increment" accru
ing to the owners of money and credits
would be much less than under an ex
elusive gold standard.-Gilbert Nc

WHAT BIMETALLlsTs INTEND.
RidDnth on Results OF Restoring sill
yer to It's Rightfu1 Place.


Bimetallists believe in the use Of both
moneys freely and on terms of perfect
equality; they will be satisfied with
nothing less. They know that they are
in the majority, and that they cannot
be defrauded of their purpose. They
intend to restore our coinage to what
il was before the act Of 1873 BY such
restoration they propose to break the
corner on gold and TO reduce the ex-
aggerated purchasing power of the
metal to the normal standard. They
intend that this reduction in the pur-
chasing power of gold shall be an
swered-as they know it will be-with
a corresponding rise in the prices of all
products Of labor. They intend in this
way to achieve prosperity; they intend
to wrong no man-not even the bond
holder; they intend that every man
shall have his rights according to the
law and the contract; they intend to
break faith with none; they intend to
march right on to the achievement of
this result; in doing so, they intend to
consult themselves. They know full
well that the so-called great CONNER
cial nations" will be glad enough to
trade with rs, and 10 take cur money
in both kinds, too. If not, we hold the
rod! If any nation under heaven pro-
posesto discriminate against the United
States of America because of our BIZ
metallic standard of money, let that ma
ton try it! We shall see who comes
out best in that contest.
When the weakened, the time sery-
ing, and the cowardly shall be expelled
from power; when American patriots
arc in the high places Of authority;
when the peoples voice shall be heard
as the voice of many waters-all men
shall then be assured that the great
republic is able to do its own business
in its own way, asking favor Of none,
menacing none and fearing none
