The Hon. Thomas u. Reed spoke before
the New york Chamber OF Commerce
night before last on the currency question
and submitted some sensible remarks
lie said that il was no wonder that the
currency question had taken so long 10
settle itself. but that we had been through
an the experiences of false currency
and had now Established ourselves at
last upon the basis taught by that suf-
fering which renders experience the best
master 1--WE have our records" he went
on. and do not wish to have history

try are facing what our ancestors faced.
an undcveloped country. the riches Of
which they long 10 possess. They made
the same mistake our ancestors made
that money was what they wanted, and
not capital, money which could be got
for nothing. instead of capital which
costs years and trust and faith"
with his usual bluntness and boldness.
Mr.. Reed then gave it as his opinion that
the next session Of Congress should de-
clare the gold standard. 1t was no argu-
ment he said, that another Congress
might undo what this Congress had done.
"Are we never to settle anything" he
asked. because that settlement can be
upset? If the people wish to repeal 1t
that IS their right. but it should never
be left in the hands of any administra-
ton so TO administer the law we have
that its amply and fully declared intent
should be frittered away. Let us make
sure of our standard"
Mr. Reed is right and it is to be hoped
that Congress will follow his advice. 1t
would be nothing short Of cowardice for
IL to fail to declare that gold is our
standard of value.

We heard four years ago because they

those laws a sphere in which to operate.

THE FILIPINO COMMISSION.
Has No Authority to Organize Until
 the Treaty Is Ratified.

Washington, Jan. 31.-There ap- pears to-. be a misunderstanding as to the selection of commissioners to study the Philippine islands. Although the names have been announced, the com mission will not be in existence until it reaches Manila. They go as indi- viduals, because the United States only holds the Philippines by right of con quest, as the treaty has not been rati- fled. The five men selected by the president will not have any authority until they all reach Manila and the treaty is ratified.
 If. however the treaty is ratified be- fore they arrive, the civil commission CTS will consult with Admiral Dewey and General Otis, organize and begin work. The commission is not to re- port form of government, but to study the conditions of the islands, the people, their ability to govern them selves, and to report to the president such information as may be of use to him in formulating a policy in regard to the islands.
 The accusation of 'Aguinaldo and his followers that the appointment or the comsission is merely to gain time, therefore, is not true.

 No stronger indictment of the demo- cratic platform maker Of 1896 could be presented than the one embodied in MT. Walls letter. Following so closely upon the formal abandonment of the 16 to 1 issue by the leading democrats of Iowa. it strongly increases the prob ability that if any attempt is made to incorporate the 16 to 1 plank in the next democratic national platform it will meet with vigorous protest from a good portion of the western democracy that followed the standard Of Bryan in the last campaigh.-Chicago Times Herald.

HE ROBBED DOCTORS.
Brooklyn Police Capture Much
 Sought-fOr Sneak Thief.

New York, Jan. 31.-In the arrest Of man who gave his name as Burton D. Beardsley. and said he lived at 305 Eighth avenue, the police of Brooklyn believe they have secured the person who has robbed many doctors in the Park slope section of the borough. Beardsley was arrested on Monday night after he had gone to the house of Dr. William E. Beardsley, at 101 Fay Tor street and delivered a note request ing aims.
 Dr. Beardsley has been robbed sev- eral times by sneak thieves. He dreamed on Sunday night that he had been robbed again, and next day he warned his servants against admitting strangers to the house during his ab- sence. While the doctor was engaged in room on the third floor of his house on Tuesday night, his namesake called. He handed the servant girl a note for the doctor. He said he would await her return. The girl recollected the doctors warning, and after show ing the caller into her employers of flee, called the attention of the coIOred valet to the visitor and requested him to be on guard. The visitor saw that he was being watched. and after nut tcring something about a trap having been set for him, hurried out of the house. The valet called the doctor and they hurried after the mar, and turned him over to a policeman, who took the prisoner to the Clymer street station.
 pr. Beardsley declared he didn't know the man. With the exception Of the hat he wore, the prisoner answered in every particular, the police say, the description of tho person who for a long time has been robbing doctors of fees. The prisoner was arraigned 1n a charge of vagrancy today in the Lee avenue police court, and held in $500 bail.

GOMEZ TO VISIT US
Invited by inc President fo Confer
 on Future of Cuba.

Washington, Jan. 31-General Max imo Gomez is expected to arrive in Washington shortly, to confer with President Mckinley in regard to the future of Cuba. MT. Quesada, who long represented the sO-called insurgent government at the capital, departed last Friday for Havana lie and his friends attempted to keep the object of his trip a profound secret, but it is he carries with him a commission from the president authorizing him to invite Gomez to visit Washington
 The general has stubbornly declined to recognize the authority of this gov ernment in the island. He refused to cooperate with our forces in the war against Spain. He has been frequent ly urged during the last few months to visit Havana and Santiago, but has .scornfully rejected all invitations of this sort. Early in this month General Gomez shut himself up in the noun tains and proclaimed that if the men under his command were paid S1000 each he and his followers would lay down their arms and return to the vo- cations of peace. The proposition was not accepted by the Mckinley admins tration.
 Through MT. Quesada and ether members of the junta Gomez finally let it become known that he would visit Washington if invited by the president. Some of the army officers who were consulted on the subject ad- vised MT Mckinley to send for Gomez. They said he could make trouble for our troops if he was not recon structed.'' The invitation has been issued and entrusted for delivery to the hands of Quesada
