A DROWNING MAN
is SAVED BY A FISH.
He Tried to Suicide, But the Fish
TickIcd His Feet and He
Yelled for Help.

NEW YORK, September elf a playful
young fish had not ticl1led the bare feet
of Max Hardtman to-day. as he attempted
to commit suicide in the East river. the
police might have been called upon to
a heroic rescue.
The ferryboat Waterbury was crossing
the East river. It was not quite 6
O'clock, and the boat was crowded. In
the middle of the river was heard cries OF
a man who evidently needed help. The
boat was steered in the direction Of the
voice. A rope ladder was swung over
the side, and two deck hands, one with
a boat-hool1 went down 10 the waters
edge. The man was half drowned. but
still swimming with difficulty. Just as
a deck hand caught him 1y the hair the
rope ladder broke, the drowning man
began to struggle, and for a moment or
so the passengers on deck witnessed an
exciting battle, the man in the water des-
perately endeavoring to break the hold
of his rescuers. He was landed, how
ever, and given over to the police.
He said his name was Max Hardtman.
chef, out of work
He further said he had jumped from a
pier. A policeman went there and found
Hardtman's clothes. In the pockets Were
several letters-one addressed to Com
missioner of Police Partridge, one to
Rev. DR.. Parkhurst, and one to Recorder
Golf.
All the letters denounced the world for
keeping the would-be suicide out Of work
for three months, and explained that there

which he called plain suicide" Hardt-
man said that being good swimmer. he
could not resist the temptation to swim.

EUROPE HAS GOLD TO SPARE.

Five or SIX Millions sterling Could
Be Spared to Americas.
NEW YORK, September Especial
cable to the Evening Post from London
says:
If the New York money market were
to need gold later on and the movement
were favored by exchange, Europe could
probably spare five or six millions sterling
for America without undue effect on the.
money markets on this side Of the ocean.
The banks of England, Germany. and
France are at present particularly well
supplied with gold. Austria, which drew
continuously from this market during the
summer, is not now buying.
It Is true that the usual three or four
millions in sovereigns, due to Egypt In
the autumn against the cotton move
rnent, will soon be going out from London.
But this is now offset by arrival Of half
million weekly In gold from South
Africa. movement which IS now becom-
Ing regular.
EUROPE STILL A DEBTOR.
The fact that gold may be sent to Amer
lea does not mean that the European
Indebtedness of your market has been

ties, it has not London's holdings OF
