AS TO THE MISSION OF wOLCOTT.
The Times Believes IL Has Been of No Use
to the Silver Dollar.

London, Oct. 1S.-The Times in its
financial article says il believes that the
cabinet has decided to decline to re-
open the Indian mints or TO enter an
international monetary conference. 1t
says: I'VE do not know exactly what
Mr.. Wolcott proposed, but there Is no
doubt that the opening of the Indian
mints was the concession most seriously
pressed. The Indian government, sup
ported by the India office, strongly pre-
tested against this policy, and the home
government must have felt bound in
this year of serious trouble for India to
indorse this position. In order, how
ever, to meet the views Of sympathizers
with bimetallism in the cabinet an inti-
nation may very likely be given that
the government is prepared to consider
any further or alternative proposals."
The Times, commenting editorially in
approval Of the governments decision,
says: President Mckinley has now
redeemed his election pledges and may
turn with a pleasant sense of discharged
responsibility TO the serious work of
financial reform. AS to the govern
ment's offer to consider alternative pro-
posals, we may perhaps be allowed TO
hope that an indulgent attitude will
not be abused, and that before again
distracting the government and the pub
lie bimetallists will be careful to see
that they have invented something real
ly novel and practicable.
Closure OF the Indian mnts has prac-
tically no defenders on the ground OF all
stract principle: and the fact that .ts
results are not quite what were desired
may serve to temper dogmatic specula-
tions concernings the prospects OF gold
currency for India. The question the
government had to settle, however, e
one Of political and financial expediency
rather than Of principle, and there can
be no doubt in any reasonable mind that
they have answered II in the only ad-
missible way.
''The fact that there are no tangible,
definite. proposals 20 discuss amply justi-
fies the government in declining to enter
a conference which would be a mere fish
ing inquiry where an immense amount
OF nonsense would be talked and a great
deal Of intrigue and wire-pullng carried
on. Tinkering currency amid the cross
currents Of an international conference
and at the bidding of people who have no
discoverable principle except the prepos-
ferrous establishment Of the ratio Of
1914 to is a thing to which the Unionst
government ought to offer uncompromis-
ing opposition"

Our Own People.
Lansing. Mich, Oct. 13.-For many
years the most important citizen OF
Dimondale, an Eaton county village
ten miles south of here. was Dr. Tyler
was greatly beloved by the entire COM
munity. He was a lawyer as we'll as a
doctor, but did not practice at the bar.
In his capacity OF physician he had
Travelled over every foot OF the sur
rounding country for miles in every di-
rection, and was probably the best
known man in the county. His family
and friends were greatly surprised,
when his will was read TO learn that
it provided that 20 per cent. of the value
Of his estate should be expended for a
monument to be placed over his grave.
Although the executors are not yet
through with the appraisal of the es-
tate the aggregate value of the real
and personal property already amounts
to $4,000, and If the provisions of the
will are carried out IL will be seen that
the monument will cost a very large
sum. The third item in the will reads
as follows:
MY will is that there shall be erect
ed at my grave within one year after
my decease a monument, If the assets
OF the estate shall warrant, according
to the following conditions: If my es-
tate shall foot up to $4,000 or more,
then there shall be erected at my grave
a granite monument worth $4,000. IL
my estate shall aggregate $4,000, and
under $4,000, there shall be erected at
my grave granite monument worth
sc, 000."
Then there follow six other items,
couched in language similar to the
above, and being in substance as fol-
lows:
Between $4,000 and 10000, a $4,000
monument; between $4,000 and s25, 900,
"a, 900 monument; between $4,000 and
$4,000, a $4,000 monument between
$4,000 and $4,000, $1,000 monument;
between $4,000 and $4,000, a 81 900 mon
ument; between $4,000 and $4,000, a $500
monument"
The last paragraph of the will pro-
vided that il the estate should aggre-
gate less than $4,000 the whole question
OF monument should be left TO the
discretion of his wife. An effort will be
made by the family to have this pecu.
liar provision set aside, ii being deemed
folly 10 expend such a large sum for a
monument as IL develops will be re-
Quired IL the will is obeyed.

London, Oct. 1S.-The Daily Chronicle
announces that in view of Lord Sails

an early reconstruction OF the cabinet is
probable. According TO The Daily Chron-
icle no serious difference Of opinion ex-
lists among the ministers on matters Of
policy, but Lord Salisbury finds his
health unequal to the strain and burden
OF his two offices Of premier and foreign
minister So great is his desire for rest
that on his recent visit to Beaulieu he
did not even take his secreatry. More
over. the premier is much concerned
about the health Of the Marchioness Of
Salisbury, which is far from good. The
queen is reluctant TO sanction his retire
ment and therefore il may be deferred
for time. In these matters her majeety
exercises her prerogative TO greater
extent than | sgenerally known. For In
stance her wish became royal comma I'd

IT is worthy of note that Lord Sails

Hatfield House. The Chronicle. COM

One of the most curious industries in

exists great underground deposit of

The trees, says the Youths Compan-

wood is almost imperishable, and has

This quality makes it particularly val
