The jubilee was a success in
every particular. The parades
were fine, the crowd was large
and the money came in in sufi-
Gent quantities to pay the expen-
SEES. Nothing seemed lacking
and it will now go down in history
as a successful event. Salt Lake
can especially afford to jubilate as
it circulated enough money a
round there to make BUSINESS
good for time at least. It was
a Goa-send in these times OF bus
mess depression and will give the
city good start on the second
half of the century.

The suspense is now over,
Congress has passed the Dingley
tariff bill and adjourned and the
country is now running under a
new tariff law from which great
results are expected. The two
great parties are divided as to
these results but We hope there
will be an Improvement in trade.
The ample protection to western
products should be of material
advantage to this section and will
doubtless stimulate business.

Tired FEELING,

Makes you seem "all broken up" with
out life, ambition, energy or appetite,
1t is often the forerunner of serious ill
ness, or the accompaniment OF nervous
troubles. 1t is positive proof of thin,
weak, impure blood; for, if the blood is
rich, red, vitalized and vigorous, it inn
parts life and energy to every nerve,
organ and tissue OF the body. The
necessity of taking Hoods Sarsaparilla
for that tired feeling is therefore apparent
to every one, and the good it will do you
Is equally beyond question. Remember

FINANCES N MEXICO.
Conditions Continue To
Grow Worse.
THE COUNTRY IN NEED OF
MONEY WITH NO WAY TO
SECURE 1T.
All Debts Contracted In Gold And
Nothing But Silver To Pay
Them Off With Puts The
Whole Country Into
A Hole.

st. Louis, Aug. IA special to the,
Globe-Democrat from Mexico City,
says:
The continued falling of silver and
the corresponding rise in exchange
have reached the point when this
country is brought face to face with
what may be a serious crisis. No So
phistry can hide the real condition of
affairs here. 1t is all very well to say
that Mexico can live within herself
and can raise on silver basis natural
products that can sell abroad on a
gold one. This would be perfectly sat
isfactory if there was such an enor-
nous increase of wealth resulting from
such conditions that it could bear
high rate of taxation, in order that the
government might be able to meet its
debts abroad by such means without
any extra strain. At this moment,
Mexican bonds are unaltered in Lon
don, principally owing to the scrupu-
lous exactness under the most distress
sing conditions with which their inter-
est has been met. These debts are in
gold and their interest is excessive
and it is only matter of time, unless
there is a change IN silver, when this
republic will be unable to stand it.
Reputation has an ugly sound, but
something very much like it under
present circumstances must finally re-
suit. The great railway corporations
and other foreign companies here have
to meet a gold interest with a medium
that is ever decreasing in value. 1t
does not matter however great the
business and their caDacity for maxi
ing money, because the money earned
is adequate to meet their obligations
abroad. There is only one thing for
them to do-increase their earnings
one hundred fold or consider that their
foreign debt was contracted in silver.
1t seems hard that the credit of this
government that is now so high, and
the excellent foreign investments here,
should be injured through circumstan-
ces over which they have no control.
But facts are facts, and ii will be in
teresting to watch what will happen
unless there is a sharp rally in silver
before long.
Merchants here are paralyzed and all
orders for abroad have been counter
manded. The manager of the Scotch
thread monopoly here has raised pri-
ces on thread % per cent and the
French importers of dry goods have
followed suit.
A prominent banker said that he be-
lieved exchange would go to $50 per
cent pretty soon. He considered the
outlook to be most serious for this
country; in fact he considered it too
gloomy to speculate upon.

Joseph Richardson Made Two Wills
and They Cause Trouble.
New York, Aug. THE first step IN
the contest over. the will of Joseph
Richardson of the Spite house has, been
taken before Surrogate Clerk Amos
Jackson. Mr.. Richardson left an es-
tate of sSO,0OO,0OO
Counsel for Mrs. Richardson offered
formal objection to the will dated
October 2S, 1894 on the ground that
he left another will dated April 4, 1897;
that the first will was not executed by
the deceased; that he was unduly in
fiuenced when the 1894 will was execu-
ted.
The first will divides the fortune
equally between his children by his
first wife, Della Richardson, and Geo.
Richardson. The second and last will
divides the immense fortune equally
between Mrs. Richardson and the two
children. Besides $4,000 is bequeath-
ed Rev. H. NJ. Warren, his pastor and
S17.500 to the Central Presbyterian
church on East Eighty-third street
Similar objections to the petition of
Mrs. Richardson for the probate Of the
1897 will were also filed. September Is
was set as the day for the taking Of
the testimony.

CLEVER RUSSELL SAGE.

New York, Aug. Russell Sage
had his eighty-second birthday ami
versary this week and is credited with
a financial coup. 1t is said he has
brought about a corner in Manhattan.
Manhattan Elevated stock some
months ago brought a popular bear
target along with outspoken declara-
tons from Mr.. Sage that as the Man
haitian company was not earning the
dividends it was paying it should pay
less dividends, and when the spring
quarterly day came around Mr.. Sage
had his way and the dividend rate was
cut down. Yesterday the stock jump
ed from 81 to 100. To representatives
OF several houses who called upon Mr..
Sage and asked him to let them have
at private sale 10000 or more shares
of Manhattan stock, Mr.. Sage said:
II am not willing to let any of my
stock go. have bought it because /
believe in the property. If you are
short and want to buy, the only ad-
vice can give you is to go into the
open market and bid for what you
want. 1t may cost you 10 or 20 points
more"

QUESTIONABLE DECISION.

Emporia, Kan, Aug. Judge Ran
dolph, of the District court has rem
dered decision which is likely to
cause a stir. In the case of Mary Rob-
erts against Elizabeth Biggers. The
judge says the holder of a note bear
ing eight per cent and ten after being
due with matured coupons bearing ten
per cent interest can demand only
eight per cent after due.
Judge Randolph says the ten Ler
cent is in the nature of a penalty,
which is not according to the statutes.
This case will not be carried to the
Supreme court. as 500 has to be at
stake before an appeal can be taken.
This decision Is law in this district
until it is reversed. Some of the law
yers disagree with the judge.

New York, Aug. THE World pub
fishes an interview said to have been
obtained with John Sherman, secreta-
ry of state, just previous to his return
to Washington from Amagansett, l..

represented as saying:
Spain will lose Cuba. That seems
to me to be certain. She cannot con-
tinue the struggle. Already the con-
flict has cost her more than $200,00O 900.
Her money is gone and she can get no
more. She has reached the limit of
her borrowing capacity. She cannot
pay back what she has already bor-
rowed. The only thing left for her to
do is to repudiate her debts. We had
to do that after the revolution. Hav-
ing repudiated that she can begin
anew, but she will have to begin with
out Cuba. That country is devasta-
ted. The insurgents have been fight
ing with only the hope of ultimate sue
cess as the reward. The Spanish SOL
diers have been battling for pay. The
pay will stop and then the conflict will
STOP
Spain is in no condition to wage
war anywhere. The burdens placed
upon her people to sustain the strug-
gle for retaining Cuba have been very
heavy. Widespread discomfort will
come sooner or later within the Span
ish kingdom, By stopping the strug-
gle, by withdrawing her troops from
Cuba and by repudiating her debts
is the only way to recover. Sooner
or later she must do this. So far we
have done nothing to arouse the anger
of the Spanish people. We have gone
on minding our own business, blind to
the distress of Cuba and deaf to the
pleadings of our own people,wh want
ed the government to interfere

1t will be recalled that the governor
offered $500 for the first two convic-
tons and 500 for each subsequent
conviction. If all the fourteen lynch
ers were caught the rewards would
aggregate $1,7OO. AS the Ryders have
