 Pomi,s Church n d Seu m ,s Beihei.

PBufs Church md Senmen's beihet.,
 Jcsephus Forbes, one of the best known old residents of what was for merly East Haven, died at his resi- dence, the old stone house, on Forbes avenue, aa short distance from Tomlin- son bridge yesterday. He had been in failing health for some time. His age was seventy-four years MT. Forbes was brother of the late Betsy Brad ley, who resided for many years on Forbes avenue, in the old stone house, and who left her property to the broth CT who died yesterday She left him the life use of the property, which at her death is to go to St. PauPs church, and the Seamen's Bethel in this city. The deceased was the last of the sons of Captain Forbes, noted shipmaster of East Haven fifty years ago, who died years ago. One of the sons died in re- cent years. Captain Forbes had ves- sells in the West India trade. He left quite a fortune. His daughter Betsy at the age of forty or fifty, became the second wife of Captain John Bradley of Branford, a shipmaster, who was also in the West India trade. Captain Bradley at his death left a handsome estate to his widow and Mrs. Bradley inherited a goodly property from her father and added considera bly, to it by her judicious management. The prop erty which now comes to St. Paups and the Bethel is estimated at over S10G 000

Hopes That the Broadway WEI Rf-
 snmr-Anothcr Exam tner In ChnrGr.
 Boston, Dec. 26.-Affairs at the Broad way National bank appeared much im- proved to-day. The Globe National bank is taking so much of the time of Examiner Wing that new examiner, MT Lyon, has been sent on from Wash ington to take charge of the Broadway. He is hopeful that the bank will resume and says that it ought to. MT. Curtis, the cashier, is making all possible eff forts to get the capital, $2O0,000, sub scribed and it looks now as if he would succeed. Stock not taken by the pres ent holders will be absorbed by MT Curtis friends. He will remain as cashier. His fortune was largely in- vested in the present stock, which is of course valueless, and he will not en- bark in the new enterprise.

THE CALIFORNIA gARIHQU4KE.
Ruins in San JacintO-StrOng Hot sul-
 phur springs Appear.

|
 San Jacinto, Cal, Dec. 26.--This little city is a scene of desolation. People are beginning to recover from the ter TOT inspired by the earthquake which centered here on Christmas morning and destroyed every brick building in 1 the town, and scme definite estimates of the damake that was wrought can now be made.
 | At the Saboba Indian reservation near here a dance had been held the night before and large quantities of whiskey consumed by the Indians sent most of them into a drunken stupor before the shock came. A number of squaws had huddled together in an old adobe build ing and were sleeping off the effects of the liquor The heavy walls fell in on them. Six were killed outright and two died later. while a score more were bad ly injured. Those killed were horribly crushed.
 Main street presents sad appear ance. It is impossible to walk along the wide walks because of the heaps of debris and overhanglng walls. Brick walls were razed to the level of the ground, with thousands of dollars of merchandise buried underneath. There is not a business house in town that has not suffered Electric wires are down and some of the power houses have fallen in. The walls of the county hos pital. erected recently at cost of $10,- 900, were badly damaged. The losses aggregate over $50.000.
 At Hemet the hotel was damaged to the extent of $10, 000 Considerable dam age was done to other property. The chimneys of the hotel fell, some of them crashing through the roof. One fell on the bed of Frank Johnson, brusing him badly. There are but two chimneys left in town. The gables of the Highland asylum were cracked and the chimneys shaken down.
 It is said that rumblings had been heard for several days about Tauquils Peak in the San Jacinto range, suppos- ed to be an extinct volcano. Between San Jacinto and Hemet geysers of hot sulphur water have appeared, and the fumes are so strong that no one can get near the geysers. Preparations are already being made for the rebuilding of most of the structures

1ation on margins. These people whc are crying that they have been forced to throw away their property had never paid for their holdings. They borrowed money on call to make small payments, hoping. that a right turn in the market would give large profits. But in that class of operation losses come as easily as profits. When they have profits they call it prosperity but when they have losses they think the country has come to a standstill and want to know who is to blame. Moth ing has happened except that they have been asked to pay what they owe
 Tt is impossible to do away with such speculation by any increase in tha money supply. In short, it is not legt-
 innate business that causes the enor- nous imitation of credits. multipl.es the bank reserves required and thus ab- sorbs any possible money stock. Spec ulation-greed-Wi inevitably do 1t and as it is obviously imposs ble to satisfy that appetite, it is absuId to point to a tight money market as a proof ot an insufficient supply of money.
 Undoubtedly the war in the Trans v2al has had influence upon our mo ey
 market. Anything tn t disurbs normal conditions, which turns the currents of business out of the course they have been expected to fLllow will affect bus- ness. With trade balances as trey are our bankers early in the season had reason to expect gold imp rts h fall and probably directed theil bu ines ac- cordingly The war h not only cut off a remittance of ab ut $2,0000G0 per week to London from South Africa, b 1t compelled heavy shipments the other way Such a reversal of the regular and anticipated order make money tight in all ce ters until affairs are re- adjusted to the new condt on.
 The world does not depend upon the Transvaal for its stock of gnla. c To- rado will produce more gold in 1900 than all North America yielded ten years ago and this continent will yield more next year than the whole world did ten years ago. Cripple Creek is up to the record of the Transvaal five years ago and Cripple Creek with Alaska and the Klondike will next year eXcesd the Transvaal production of 1897. The golden tide though checked for the amount is not going to subside.'

 Berlin, Dec. 26.-The German govern ment has definitely abandoned all idea of acquiring the Danish West Indies, either by purchase from Denmark or otherwise. The correspondent of the Associated Press received this informa- ton from an authoritative source to- day, The German embassy in Wash ington has left no doubt that any such attempt would be looked upon by the Americans as an unfrlendly act and as serious infringement of the Monroe doe Urine, According to the same authority the reports representing that Denmark is negotiating to sell the islands to the United States are entirely premature or without foundation.

MONET SCARCIY Y IND IRA DE.
Statement by Director of Mint Roberts
 or the situation.

Washington, Dec. 26-George F.. Roberts, the director of the mint, was asked to-day as to whether the present monetary strngency in his opinion sig nified an actual scarcity of money to meet the present requirements of trade. He said: "No possible supply of money can prevent stock exchange panics or periods of monetary stringency, be- cause specula tion 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. The cry for more money is as unappeasable as the demand for more wealth. A new supply instead of sat isfying the demand stimulates it. Men want money to buy things with good things that they think are going higher. Given easy money in the banks and we have bankers encouraging borrowers. As a result stocks go up and as they go up many people want to buy and so the demand for money increases. You cannot furnish money fast enough to meet the demand of all who would like to borrow while prices are going LID. nor could all the gold and silver mines in the world together keep prices going up forever.
 "A marvellous era of increae ing money stocks began in 1850 and started pe- riod of speculation which ended with a grand worldwide smash in 1857. when even tht Bank of England had to sus- pend payment without any decline in production and with the hints every where open to both gold and silver.
