Decline in Silver.

Bar silver declined in the New York
and London markets last week to 5i14 "a
66 ceuts per ounce, while Mexican dol
lars were quoted at 4314 q As cents
Silver has not been so low in four years.
The decline is attributed to several
causes, principally the depressed con-
dition of Europe, caused principally 10y
the Boer war, and the general demoral-
lied condition of business. Several of
the South American republics have gone
to gold basis during the past year,
which has tendency to weaken silver.
Mexico may yet be compelled to adopt
the gold standard unless the silver mar
ket can be prevented from dropping low
or. However the proposition viii b will
soon be submitted to congress to coin a
Philippine dollar for general use in our
new Pacific possessions, if adopted, will
relieve the treasury of vast amount of
its surplus stock. The general revival
of business throughout the Orient will
occasion vast demand for silver during
the next few years. There is almost no
limit to the amount OF silver which can
be used in China alone when the country
IS once on a sound commercial basis.

Smuggling by
Wholesale.

The Southern Pacific pay car was held
up at Nogales, Ariz ona, last week by
the Custom house authorities.
Charles j. Robinson, the pay-master
of the Southern Pacific, M. A. Wilson
one of his guards. the car porter, the
cook and Mexican were put under ar
rest and held under guard all day, but
were released on bonds in the evening
Paymaster Robinson and his staff were
accused of smuggling and the goods
were found in their possession. Twenty
three boxes of cigars were captured and
conhscated,
1t seems that the Custom house au-
thorities have suspected for some time
that paymaster Robinson has been ir
the habit of smuggling cigars on the oc-
casion of the pay car coming to Nogales.
Collector Doan resolved to keep close
watch this trip and posted guards at Il
convenient distance around the car.
In the darkness of the night or early
morning Mexican began delivering
boxes OF cigars at the car. He brought
them from the Mexican side. When be
had delivered quantity the guards
closed in and raided the car.
The cigars and the car with all its con-
tents were confiscated.
The fact of the capture was promptly
reported to Washington. Paymaster
Robinson did good deal of telegraphing
to the headquarters of the railroad com.
pany at San Francisco. 1t is evident
that the headquarters officials communi-
Gated with Washington for late in the
evening Secretary Gage telegraphed to
release the car
A little later United States Attorney
Morrison telegraphed the United States
commissioner to release Robinson and
the others on Sond. They were accord.
ingly released on S400 bond each to ap-
pear before the United States Commits
sioner for examination on January 10th.

the week is 1859 47S s 20 per less than week

reduction last week from the preceding week was
due to the fact that there were only five business

increased s1.l5S7l6. The management of the Erie
company is placing the road in the front rank OF
trunk line properties and the chances are that the
