noon witnessed an amusing scene.
On the boat was a small wagon, to
which was attached decreplt horse with
sore foot. A man wearing an old straw
hat and suit which had evidently seen
scme wear. stood near the horse, examin-
ing It's weak points. After few mo-
ments he turned to the driver and told
MN that he ought to be ashamed to drive
such an unnt horse. The driver returned
a surly reply and the man with the old
straw hat complained to bicycle police
man who was near.

New York. August %. --Senator Hanna.
chairman of the republican National COM
mittee. has been called upon TO arbitrate
the differences between Governor Roose-
welt. the candidate for vice president, and
the republican leaders OF this state (Which
threaten TO make the coming State con-
vention interesting.
When the governor reluctantly let the
Philadelphia convention nominate him he
resolved that he would remain factor In
State politics despite Senator Platts ef-
forts. He succeeded in having General
Francis IL. Greene made president OF the
county committee, although Senator Platt
came back from Philadelphia to oppose
Greenes election. Then senator Platt
wanted Mr. Odel for governor, and the
governor urged some independent repub-
lican. After long struggle the governor
said he was in favor of Mr.. Odell.
Daring all this time the governor was
treated almost 9Th contempt by Senator
Plat. He was incine.t ~ resent this ana

THE MONEY QUESTION.

Part ls devoted to the money question.
The FIRST chapter is a record OF McKin-
iey's broken pledge for international BIZ
metallism and demonstrates, by the speech
Of Senator Wolcott and 'by Mckinley s
message In favor OF the indianapolis god
standard plan, that IN international agree
ment for b,matsllism was only prevented
by treachefoiis blow by Mckinley him
self when IL was on the eve of consume
nation. Senator Wolcott quotes from ths
speeches OF members of the British min
istry, and these quotations demonstrates
this fact. lac interesting statement Is
made that during McKinley's adminlstri-
tian Secretary Gage has coined 55,0000Ol
Of "5o-cent clipped dollars" all OF when
are preserved by the gold standard act as
a legal tender.
Mr. Gage has Just expressed great fear
that If Mr.. Bryan Ia elected he would cause
these $4,000, 900 of dollars TO be pad out
OF the treasury as money. An analysis
of the gold standard, National bank, anti
greenback financial bill is given, mainly
from the speech Of Senator Teller, TO-
gether with Senator Chandler's protest
against the same. The relations of the
Standard OIL National City bank OF New
York with the treasury department and It's
purchase of the old New York City custom
house are fully set forth. 1t IS ehoWn
