Interesting complications and litigation
evidently result from the action Of mum
ber of railroads in different parts Of the
country in confscating coal which may be
passing over their roads owned by other
parties. In many localities it is Gripping
manufactures by taking their fuel from
them, and throwing many workmen out of
employment. The railroads claim that, as
there are serious strikes among the miners,
threatening to cause shortage OF coal in
all directions, they have the right as public
conveyors of the United States mails to
"confscate" what they need from any
source they may be able to get it from, and
so take it without permission as it passes
over their roads. They claim this right
under the United States law, and the result
will be watched with interest The Lake
Erie Iron company has sued the Lake
Shore railroad company for thus seizine
coal. This will be tried as test case and
the decision will stand accordingly. If the
United States law will allow this, why
might it not also be used to compel strik.
ing miners to 60 to work because not
working stops the transportation of the
mails? Would this not be the more

Two changes in ownership OF newspapers
of the state have occurred during the past
week. The transfer of the Hardwick
Gazette to Charles o. Layman of Port
Allegany, Pa, he to be the owner and
editor, and the sale of the Bennington Ban
ner to Messrs. Holden & Cushman, with
H. I. Cushman as editor. We are glad
to welcome each to the ranks of our pro-
fession and trust that both ventures may
be eminently successful.

During the past week several little news
paper booms have been started in different
parts of the state looking toward naming
the Vermont governor to be elected next
year. All this talk is premature and un-
called for at the present time, but follow
ing the custom Of former years tie meet
ing Of the Fish and Game League at the
hcme of Lieut.. Gov. Fiske at Isle La
Motto August 6, will give impetus to all
the little booms. Among those already
spoken of" are Hon. j. G. Mccullough
of Bennington, Colonel E. C. Smith Of
st. Albans and w. Seward Webb of
Shelburne. One noticeable fact is that
every paper, and every individual that
speaks of it, fully comedies the nomination
OF Hon. William w. Stickney in 1900
when by common custom the otlice comes
back to this side of the state.

\ year ago people were watching
with great interest the daily papers
for reports as TO the condition of the
gold reserve. As it crossed the one
hundred million danger line business
men got nervous. and as it dwindled
down to fifty million the anxiety
grew intense But who knows any
thing about the gold reserve today?
No one takes any interest in the sub
ject. now. Well venture the asSer-
tion that not one business man, even.
in fifty. knows today the condition of
the gold reserve. We doubt if one in
ten could guess within twenty million
of It's actual amount. People have Il
general and abiding confidence that
it is all right. and they are watching

A "CoNFlDENTiAL" LETTER.
One of Them Received the Past Week BY
Prominent Business Man.

An old scheme in new guise has come
to light and it will probably catch as
many greenhorns and suckers as the
well known gold brick swindle.
This new scheme is confidential cir.
cular sent to prominent travelling men
by man who claims to be an expert en-
graver, and says he was employed in the
bureau of engraving at Washington for 90
years, and for 10 years was superintend-
emit of one of the largest bank note com
panies in the world. "a
The circular goes on to state that dur
ing his leisure he took up as side issue
the duplication OF ones, fives and tens,
claiming they were the original denom-
nations he had worked upon, and that
he could make perfect duplicates which
could not be told from the genuine even
by experts.
He then goes on to state that an invest
| ment Of $500 would give an immediate re
! turn that a lifetime of toll would not do
and all this without injuring friends,
! neighbors or your fellow man.
Upon receipt of telegram the swindler
offers to send sample Of his work and
also appoint a place of meeting, where
| one can personally examine his entire
stock
The telegram is to be sent in cipher,
signed with full name or initials Of the
sender, when return answ 81 will be sent
appointing place of meeting.
All names, dates, etc., are omitted
from the circular, but it Is signed. "Con-
fidentially Your, Oldest Steel Plate En-
graver in the U. S."
One of the circulars was received by a
well known Portland travelling man, a
member of large wholesale firm, and NO
doubt many others have been received In
this city. 1t is the old time gold brick
and sawdust swindle in another form,
couched in language. tempting enough to
| catch anyone who is not sharp enough to
see through the scheme, but it is safe to
say that the commercial travellers OF
| Maine are too fright a set of men to be
| caught with ohaff of this sort.

BISHOP NELLY,
breaches His First Sermon Since His Re-
turn from Europe.

The morning services yesterday at the
Cathedral of St. Luke's, were more than
of ordinary interest because of the return
of the Rt. Rev. Bishop Nelly from atten-
dance at the Lambeth conference.
Bishop Nicely participated lin the SER
vices and preached a thoughtful sermon,
taking his text from the epistle for the
day, Eph, fourth chapter, first verse: 81
therefor the prisoner of the Lord, beseech
YOU that We walk worthy of the vocation
wherewith ye are called. He said In part:
Paul was prisoner Of war at Rome in
bondage for the Lord because he preached
Jesus and proclaimed him King of
Kings and Lord Of LORDS -
II have been In Rome said the speak
er, "and not the forum, not the coliseum,
nor the Vatican, not st. Paul's, in short
nothing was SO inspiring as the very
prison in which Paul was prisoner-ln
body only-his spirit was not bound.
oh, what memories"
Earnestly did the Bishop beseech his
! hearers to walk worthy Of the vocation
to which they are called, for by 80 doing
they are brought into the very family OF
GOD and with holy communion and fell
lowship with the Holy. Spirit. thus be-
coming citizens of God like st. Paul and
citizens of that beautiful Jerusalem.
Follow then the example Of Jesus Be like
Him in long suffering; live for others;
| root out all selfishness.
| Not merely is it the love of those whose
kindly faces greet me on my return but
rather the greater love for the kingdom
of Christ that is worthy of our most
strenuous striving.
To be loving members Of the great
Christian church should be our aspira-
ton. Let us all be worthy of God, and
at the end we shall face one another in
q better world.
II greet you with joy,' said Bishop
Nicely in conclusion, land at last may &C
ceptance and approval be the reward o.
all of u.s.
| At the conclusion of the services large
number of the congregation awaited them
selves of an opportunity to take the bishop
by the hand and on Wednesday evening
the ladies of the church will give hin
a reception in the parish house. A tall
on the working of the Lambeth confer
ence will be given by Bishop Nicely OF
| Thursday evening before the ''Churcl
club at the place just mentioned.
