ANCIENT PRESCRIPTIVE
RIGHT DENIED BY JUDGE

NEW YORK, July 24.-''Nc
woman has right to go through
her husbands pockets any more
than a man has right to &C
through his wife's pockets, said
the magistrate in the Yorkville
court yesterday afternoon in de-
Gliding case in which Selma
Reichert. 80 years old, had been
arrested on complaint of her hus-
band, Ernest, shoemaker.
He alleged that she had stolen
S57 and private papers from his
coat in his store. She admitted
taking the papers, but denied
getting the money. She was
finally discharged.
Mr.. Levy, counsel for the wo-
man, told the magistrate that
Mrs. Richter was married eight
years ago to a man who disap.
peared. She waited five years
and then married Reichter as she
had a right to, he said, according
to the statute
''Reichter heard she had a hus
band, and that he was living, +"
said Levy, land that she had not
been divorced. Considering
himself not welded to her,
he left and went to Chicago, met
a woman with some money, and
married her. He then returned
to New York. The Chicago wo-
man heard that Reichter was
married to Selma Reichert and
that there had been no divorce
She left him and applied for a
divorce in the Supreme court,
which was granted. Reichter
was arrested on Jan. % on COM
plant of Selma Reichert for
abandonment and non-support,
and was ordered by you to pay
her 81 a week. He paid at my
Office till three weeks ago."
Mrs. Reichert went to Rech-
ert's store with the summons
Monday. When her husband
saw her coming he ran out the
back way. She found his coat
and took numerous letters from
it. When Reichert returned he
found his coat empty, and he
asked the police to arrest his
wife on a charge of grand larceny.
Your HONOR" said Mr.. Levy.
81 never heard of such a thing
as woman being arrested fol-
going through her husbands
pockets. A woman has every
right to do such a thing

NO OCCASION FOR UNEAsINEsS.

The New York Weekly Financial
Review says: I'm the general situa-
ton there is no occasion for uneasi-
ness; on the contrary there is much
basis for confidence. General bust
ness is fairly active, III sound condi-
tion, and the prospects are for good
fall and winter trade. About the
only case Of OVERRIDING has been in
Wall street. Extraordinary and
somewhat confusing conditions had
carried prices to an excessively high
level, and since it was found that the
lifting forces were exhausted reac-
tion was imperative. The market
has received a severe shock through
forced liquidation and some time will
be required for recuperation. Mean
time stocks have been passing into
strong hands, the technical condition
being considerably strengthened there
by. Liquidation may not have run
its full course, and recent bear sue
cesses will tempt extreme efforts to-
wards depression: but good stocks are
certainly better purchase now than
two or three weeks ago, when bull en-
thusiasm was at its height. Last week
we intimated that active manipula-
tion was i'm sight and that the market
would bear close watching. Events
have confirmed these anticipations. :"

1t is Hot EVERYWHERE.

High temperature prevails over
almost the entire United States, and
the atmospheric conditions generally
have undergone little or no change
within the last twenty-four hours.
The center of the highly heated area
still hovers around ST. Louis and

DEAD AND BURIED.

In dOuble-leaded editorial evident.
ly intended as keynote for the In
diana Democracy the indianapolis
Sentinel heartily indorses the action
of the party in Ohio in ignoring free
silver and dropping Mr.. Bryan. The
article is headed GA Dead and Buried
Issue, meaning thereby free silver
and Organism. 1t gives notice to Mr..
Bryan that he is no longer in the run
ming, and that San overwhelming
majority of Indiana Democrats heart
lily indorse the Ohio platform. The
following is worth putting on record:
Mr. Bryan saves that 1.-THE money
question is not out of politics. If
Mr. Bryan means by this that the
question of the ''free coinage of silver
at the ratio of Is to l without the
consent of any other nation" is not
out of politics the Sentinel must re-
luctantly, but emphatically, differ
with him. MN The Sentinel begs leave
to say. with all the emphasis it can
command, that the silver question is
out of politics, if not for all time. at
least for as long time as existing con-
ditions prevail, which may be for a
generation or more to come. Its out
of politics because the American peo-
Pile have three times passed
upon the question and pro-
nOunced with constantly in
creasing emphasis against free
coinage. 1t is out of politics because
the business of the world has adjusted
itself to the gold standard, and be-
cause the relief which free coinage
was expected to afford has come from
the increased supply of gold and from
other causes. y \ y The Sentinel is Mr..
Bryan's friend and admirer. 1t has
done him valiant service in the past.
wants to believe in him still. But it
warns him in all kindness that the
rank and file of the Democratic party
the boys i'm the trenches-the men
who 60 to the primaries tired of
the fatuous BourbOnism which would
link the party to the corpse of an issue
which, however vital at one time, has
been killed by the logic of events and
buried under thrice repeated
avalanche of popular disapproval.
People with memories and a little
reasoning power will remark that free
silver was just as vicious doctrine in
1897 and in 1900 as it is now. If it
was right then it is right now, and
vice versa. Financial and economic
conditions have undergone no material
change beyond the increasing prosper
ity of the country. In a moral sense
free silver was as impossible and as
dangerous two years ago as it is today,
and it only became live issue because
the Bryanites thought they could ride
into power on it. A party that adopts
vicious and dangerous doctrines when
it thinks they offer chance of SIC
cess and only abandons them whenit
becomes convinced they are not winn-
ing cards is not fit to be trusted.

A Business Change.

E. A. Fink, the druggist, has sold
the bulk of his stock and will remove
to South Bend, his former home, the
first of the month, to engage in bust
ness there. Mr.. Fink has during his
residence here commanded the respect
of the people and of the trade and his
departure will be regretted. His
change is due to the fact that he has
at this time an opening of special
character and he feels that his sue
cess i'm business here will be more
than duplicated if he takes advantage
of the opportunity now presented.

FACTS AS TO WOOL.

The incomprehensible democrats
are again talking about free wool and
claiming, in their usual illogical way,
that wool is low and that the Dingley
law is holding the price down and OPP
pressing the farmer. If the state
ment is true the Dingley law should
be repealed. for one of its express
objects is TO benefit the growers of
wool.
Let us see An ounce of fact is
worth car load of theory and facts
are easily obtained. Boston is the
great wool market of the United
States and the prices are made there.
At the opening of the clip this year, in
the middle of June, Ohio XX wool
brought 26 cents. while year ago it
brought SO Gems. If the Dingley
law put the figure at 26 this year,
why was it 80 last year under the
same law? But at the same time in
1896, in the happy days of the Cor
man. Wilson tariff, the same wool was
priced at Il cents, and less than one
third as much was sold at Boston as
this year.
Those indisputable facts do not fit
in with the hap-hazard theories Of the
men who framed and passed the Cor
man. Wilson monstrOsity, but there
are other facts equally inconsistent
with their irresponsible notions. In
June, 1896, the trade reports con-
tanned such items as the following:
During the past week the goods
movement has been slow and the
curtailment of production has con-
tinued. The Middlesex Mills have
announced complete shutdown, to
begin July /. The amount of idle
machinery is being increased daily
and the future gives little or no prom
Use of return toe ven normal activity.
The assignment of the Momentum
Worsted Company has further
emphasized the disappointing condi-
ton of the goods market.
In June. 1901, there was no cur
tallment, but the mills were refusing
to take further orders and new mills
were being FASTENED to completion.
Yet wool costs abroad today almost
exactly what it did then.
Canada is enjoying free trade on
wool and the price there is 20 per
cent lower than in this country on
equal grades. Canadian mills are on
the verge of bankruptcy and their
deluded owners are asking for tariff
to protect them. They are glorious
" prosperous, even as our own man.
ufacturers were under the statesman
like German Wilson lawI
Free trade was to give Us foreign
markets for wool, SO the democratic
wise men promised: out the ship
ments under their law amounted to
about half the shipments for cores
ponding periods under the present
tariff. They were going to stop
adulteration and talked much about
shoddy: but the imports of adulter-
ants under the Dingley law in the
first ten months of the present fiscal
year amounr to barely bali million
dollars as against fifty million in the
same period of the democratic free
trade.
The simple truth is that wool
growers are infinitely better off now
than they were when Cleveland s
congress enacted the law that brought
the most enormous wool adulteration,
the lowest price of wool and the most
hideous depression in manufacturing
known in a generation. Free wool
means the humiliation of the wool
industry and it is not necessary to GO
hack Of 1896 to prove the assertion.
