ported his find to the life saving station.
The crew went after the body and re-
moved it to the dock al the foot of Lake

taken to Stewards morgue, where it is
being prepared for the funeral. which viii

Sandy as it shot past.
Like q fash the bronchos sprang to
the front two lengths before the other
teams; but, terrified by the yelling
crowd, instead Of bending to the left
bank, up which the road wound, they
wheeled to the right and were almost
across the river before Sandy could
swing them back into the course.
Baptiste's cries, curious mixture of
French and English, continued to
strike through all other sounds till they
gained the top Of the slope, to ind the
others almost hundred yards in front,
the citizens team leading. with the
miners following close. The moment
the pintos caught sight Of the teams
before them they set off at q terrific
pace and steadily devoured the inter-
veniIg space. Nearer and nearer the
turn came, the eight horses in front
running straight and we'll within their
speed. After them few the pintos, run
ming savagely, with ears set back, lead
ing we'll the big roans, laundering along
and gaining at every bound. And now
the citizens team had almost reached
the fort, running hard and drawing
away from the bays. But Nixon knew
what he was about and was simply
steadying his team for the turn.
The event proved his wisdom, for IN
the turn the leading team left the
track. lost a moment or two in the
deep snow, and before they could re-
gain the road the bays had swept su-
perbly past, leaving their rivals to fol-
low in the rear. On came the pintos,
swiftly nearing the fort. Surely at
that pace they cannot make the turn.
But Sandy knows his leaders. They
have their eyes upon the teams in front
and need 10 touch Of rein. Without
the slightest change in speed the nlm-
BILE footed bronchos round the turn,
hauling the big roans after them, and
fall in behind the citizens team, which
is regaining steadily the ground lost in
the turn.
And now the struggle is for the
! bridge over the ravine. The bays In
front, running with mouths wide open,
are evidently doing their best. Behind
them and every moment nearing them,
but at the limit Of their speed, too,

The Ger man government. through its ambassa- dor. volunteered the declaration that under no circumstances do we con- slider In our proceedings the acquisi- tion or the permanent occupation If Venezuelan territory" This express recognition of the force of the Monroe doctrine leaves no cause of complaint against the projected demonstration. The good faith of the declarant cannot be questioned, and until it shall appear that the proceedings of the intervenors exceed the limits set by themselves this government will have no cause of action. The Monroe doctrine is not a shield to protect Latin American states against compulsory measures when they fail to perform their international obligations.

Precious and Other Minerals .

In round numbers. the value of the gold product in 1901 was $7S.O0O. 900. and of silver the value was s71.OOO.OO0 as metal Commercial value). As metals. gold and silver were valued at a little less than sl12O 900; as money, $l5O- OO0,0 ,0o0. Figures for 1900 were $115. .OOO- 900 and $153.OOO.OOO. a loss for 1901 of over s3.OOO,OOO.
 The copper produced in 1901 was val ued at sS7. 1000, ,OOO; lead, as in 1900, at 23,O00.OOO. and zinc over S11, ,OOO. 900. Copper, lead and zinc products in 1901 were worth $9,00O,0O0 more as metals than gold and silver were worth as metals. though the value of the copper product was $11 1000, 900 less than in 1900.
 The combined values of abrasive ma terials, of chemical materials. of pig ments and of other miscellaneous min erals, amounting to about $3S. 900. 900 in 1901. show that they were worth almost as much as the gold produced and about $5,OOO,O 900 more than the silver as a metal.
 The structural materials produced in 1901 the building stone. the clay prod ucts. the cements, valued at about s1s2,- 900, 900. exceeded the gold and silver by O,OO0.OO0. if the commercial or metal value of silver is taken, and by $32.- OOO.000. if silver is taken at it's coining value. Iron ore and it's products in- creased notably in quantity, but de- creased in still greater proportions in value in 1901 as compared with 1900. Yet, despite a loss of nearly SIS, 900. 900 in value as compared with 1900, the pig iron produced in 1901 exceeded the metal value of the gold and silver by $130. .00O. GOO and their combined coining value by s95. 100000. Compared with the mineral fuels. coal, petroleum and natural gas. produced in 1901, the com bined coining value of the gold and silver Is exceeded by S292, ,OOO. 900. and the combined metallic value is as $112,- coo, 900 to SAP. .OOO. 900, an excess of sSSO.- 000.O of the necessary fuels over the precious metals.

Silver's Low Price.

It would seem as if there is no bot tom price for silver. Time and again has it seemed that the price could go no lower, yet the fall mas been steady. until now the bullion value of a silver dollar is less than g cents. A remark able result has been that the Siamese hints have ceased coining silver. which is looked upon as an initial move of the east toward the gold basis. The fall comes at a time when there is a crisis in the Philippines over the money ques- tion. With silver declining so steadily the exchange market there has become demoralized and a financial panic is imminent
 It ought to be obvious to all by this time that a mistake was made when the gold standard was not established in the Philippines by congress There was a muddled condition of brain on the part of the leaders when they for got so much of recent history to sup pose that what was impossible in this country could be made practicable in the far east. There is no argument for the gold standard here that is not more effectual in relation to the Philippines It is true that it would have been an expensive undertaking and some great losses would have inhered, but the situ- alton is all the worse now. The gold standard must be established even if the government pays large part of the expenses attending on a, change. The mongrel currency Of the Philip
