Fal.aGiOuS Belief That the

Policy.
VALUE OF THE GOLD STANDARD
How 1t Has Contributed to the
Prosperity of the Country.
The Free Circulation OF
Money.

In the discussion OF political issues
and the possibilities of a change in aG-
ministratton some lukewarm Repuhli-
cans are occasionally disposed to regard
the financial question as practically set
tied and that there : little possibility
OF the Democratic party being able TO
make radical changes in the financial
poicy of the government. This belief Is
fortunately confined TO only q few peo-
pie but IL is perniCious one and cannot
be too soon abandoned.
The Gold Standard.
A writer on this subject. speaking OF
possible change of the gold standard,
says: To insure the safety of the finan-
Cial legislation of last Winter MIR. Bryan
must be defeated in November. His cleo
ton would be uHerring indication
that the control of the United States
Senate would pass into the hands OF
the foes Of sound money on March {,
1903 half way through a Bryan admin
istration. and it would also indicate with
less certainty such a disaster on March
1. 1901. at the beginning of the Congress
to be chosen this year. Moreover, the
election of Mr.. Bryan would also be the
election of House of Representatives
majority OF whose members would
be pledged to the repeal Of the gold
standard act and TO the enactment of
a free coinage law.
In view of these facts 1t must appear

WOMAN is NATURALIZED
CAROLINE sCHAUB HAS LIVED IN
THIS COUNTRY FIFTY YEARS.
But Her Husband Is Dead and There
NaturaIixed-Other Court Cases.

A rather unusual ceremony took place in
the Circuit Court yesterday when Caroline
Schaub, who has lived in this country for
fifty years, took the oath of allegiance and
was made a citizen of the United States.
Attorney Barrett, who accompanied Mrs.
Schaub to the courthouse, said it was not
an unheard-of thing for women to be nat
uralized, but there are not many cases OF
the kind on record in this county.
Mrs. Schaub was born in Germany and
her husband, who is now dead, was also
German. He took out naturalization pa
pers in 1855 or 1853. but the book in which
a record OF his case was kept has been
lost. Attorney Barrett is transacting some
business for Mrs. Schaub and as there is
no record TO show that her husband was
naturalized, it was necessary for her to
take out papers, since the character Of
the business TO be transacted requires it.
Under the law, when a husband takes out
naturalization papers, the wife is also nat
uralized and If there are children the act
of the father also naturalizes them. II
this case Mrs. Schaub and her children be-
came naturalized when the husband and
father took out his papers, but the record
having been lost, the fact that the family
had been naturalized could not be officially
recognized by the court.

RELEASE OF w. A. cox.
American Freed by General Wood
From n Filthy Cuban Prison.

NEW ORLEANS, Jan. CIV. A. Cox,
the American whose arrest in this city
and return to Cuba on the charge of being
a fugitive from justice which attracted at
tention, has reached New Orleans from
Havana on the Morgan liner Arkansas.
He was released on Friday by order of
General Wood and Immediately took ship
for the United States. Cox said that he
believed General Wood was thoroughly i'm
bued with the necessity for prison reforms
in Cuba and that he was just the man TO
carry them out. The general had thor
oughly inspected the conditions of the
various jails, making personal inquir.
into the cases of all Americans confii,ed
there. Cox stated that his treatment while
he was behind the bars was simply fright
full. The filth and horror of his surround
tngs was beyond all comprehension ard
until General Wood arrived and took
charge he was unable TO hear anything at
all from the American authorities. He
states there are still 1000 prisoners in
Havana, most of whom are confined on the
most frivolous charges. Two America r 5,
he AYERS, are now serving out sentences
of four years for resisting a native OF
ficer. No one here knew that any action
had been taken in the Cox case until
Cox himself stepped off the boat last night.

After Refusing to Plead Guilty to
RObbing Henry Goldstein.


In the Criminal Court, yesterday, Frank
Pierce, Jessie Thurber and William Pres
ton were arraigned on the charge of grand
larceny. They were arrested in connec-

proposed. All three of the prisoners pleaded
not guilty and were taken back to Jail.
They were arraigned on the information of
the prosecuting attorney. and this will save
a grand jury investigation. The trio will
be tried early the coming week.
Quick work was made in the case of a
man named Hays, who was charged with
petit larceny. The alleged offense was
committed some time ago, but Hays was
hot arrested until yesterday. He was ar
rested at Broad Ripple, and was tried and
bound over to the grand jury by justice
of the peace. Prosecutor Pugh filed in
formation against Hays in the afternoon
and he was brought into court and given
q Jail sentence.
William Harris. charged with assault and
battery with intent to kill, was also ar
raigned. The State dismissed the Intent
to kill' and Harris was sent to jail for
thirty days and was fined 500.
Woodley Simmons pleaded guilty to petit
larceny and was sentenced to the Indina
Reformatory for a term of from one to
