ANOTHER TALE OF THE SEA.
The Topmasts of a Big Schooner Speak
EloqucntIy of What is Below.

NORFOLK. VA. Dec. Especial
That another marine tragedy has been
enacted on Cape Hatteras, tragedy OF
which there are no living Witnesses was
made evident to-day when the British

which lies off Hatteras. the topmasts Of
a three masted schooner, only the top
masts were visible A close inspection
showed the character OF the vessel, whose
name and destination are sim unrevealed.
That those aboard her perlshed, seems
clear since the wreck lies only 10 miles OF
Shore and no ship wrecked men have
landed on this coast recently.
The crew of the schooner numbering
probably s men, It IS believed lost their
lives i'm the storm NJ Christmas eve, dur
ing which the British steamer Ariosto,
went ashore near by and z OF her crew
were lost.

THE DIRECfOR OF THE MINT ON
FINANCE.

The attention Of the American people
can never be too often called to tho
statement Of Mr.. Roberts, director OF the
mint. published on Wednesday last that
mo possible supply Of money can pre-
vent stock exchange panics or periods of
monetary stringency, because snecnla-
ton and rising prices will absorb any
possible increase until the pressure for
ready cash is Just as great upon the
new plane as it was upon the Old
Readers Of The Times know that it has
been incessantly preaching that identical
doctrine for seven or eight years We
have pointed out time and time AGAIN
that the passion for speculation Is in
grained in man and that an abundant crop
Of speculators will always be on hand If
the means for speculation are supplied.
The money lenders recognize this end
are always holding out TO the public Of
fers of money with which speculative
operations may be made. The specula-
tor who can put up a margin deposits
it with money lender who buys a
stock and holds the stock and the mar
gin" as security for the money he pays
for the stock. The money Lenders, Tea-
soning thus. that they can always lend
prontably TO the spectators bid for what
money that Is I'm the country and then
lend in out at higher rates. The thing
Is autocratic. As the money lenders
have money to put out the spectators
increase. and as the SPECTATORS increase
the money lenders bid Tor more money
10 supply them.
This is astonishingly illustrated by the
table taken from the report Of the comp
tro,ier Of the currency which we printed
a few days back and which we print
again. advising all men who want to un-
derstind this subject TO cut it out and
paste it IN their hats. II is as follows:
