Bad Silver Dollars Are Being Made

Manila, Oct. 12.-Counterfeit
American silver dollars are being
made in China and circulated here
extensively. The suspicion is held
that some OF this money was ship
ped from San Francisco, The dol
lars are of silver and standard
weight. They have been detected
through the improper stamping of
the word Liberty on goddess. The
low price Of silver insured the max
ers of this counterfeit money a pro-
fit of 100 per cent. American silver
circulates as gold in the Philip

PROBLEMS OF THE STRIKE.
Great Growth of Socialism Resulting
from 1t.

Wilkesbarre, Pa, correspondence
of Galveston News:-There are
some great problems involved in
this strike, or rather they will
follow as consequence. The Demo-
cratic Convention of New York,
with David B. Hill at the helm,
declared for Government ownership
of coal mines as a last resort. That
was rank socialism; but socialism
always gets its momentum, not
from the abstract reasoning of
theorists, but from the unbearable
Affections of real conditions. The
anthracite coal strike brings this
fact strongly to public attention.
Admittedly there is no written law
which would justify the State in a
time of peace in Selling private
property and operating it for the
benefit of the public. There is no
question of the ownership of the
coal mines involved, and there is
20 question of the right of any
citizen. union or not, to work if he
can secure the employment; but the
right OF 25,000,000 people to resist
freezing to death is unquestionable
in common law, and it is the inter-
est of the non-cOmbatant consumer
which is in reality the largest inter
est at stake in this strike.
| am told here that the present
strike has done more to advance
socialism in Pennsylvania than
anything which has happened in
the history of the State, and no
doubt this is true. There is a gen
eral opinion in Wilkesbarre that it
would be best for all concerned for
the Government, Federal or State,
to own the mines. Why? This is
a city larger than Dallas, and its
commerce depends largely upon
the operation of the coal mines; SO
do its industries and in essential
respects its vel prosperity and
existence. For X months the mer-
chants have beerAdOing little bus
mess and the town les been prac-
tically dead, all because of this
strike. There have been many
to follow. A strike in this region
is like a blighting drouth in exas.
1t knocks the whole business into
a cooked hat And there is no
telling when one will happen.
The Government, so far as it has
gone into business, has managed to
avoid strikes and other labor dis
turbanceS. he Government is a
reliable and steady worker. and
business men want things TO move
along regularly. Constant activity
is the slogan OF commercial and
industrial success and the Gov
eminent seems to be the only
machine that never quits for a
druoth and never has a strike.

specuIatioIs FIattens Out to a Marked Degree.

Speculation. FIattens Out to a Marked Degree.
 New York July 2S.-The speculation flattened out to a marked degree in to- 1 days stock market, and the latter part of the day offered a degree of activity scarcely above the usual midsummer dullness. Before noon there was an enormous amount of realizing accom- plished, which was credited to the vest ern party of operators who have long been conspicuous in the market. Un- less 1t Is considered that the resources of the money market threaten to be- come constricted, there was no obvious cause for the weakness, To-day's en- agreements of gold for to-morrow's s steamer amounted in round numbers to l s, 775 ,0O0 Last weeks bank state ment showed that speculative borrow l ings were fully keeping, pace with the | increase in reserve sources, and when loan contraction begins it is inevitably ! the speculative borrowers that are first called upon to pay. It is question of only a short time now, also. when the
 
 will be resumed. The false start early in the month was obviously due to the requirements Of the corn speculation, but the real demand for moving the crops Is yet to be met, and all opinions agree that the money movement will be a heavy one this year. It needed only the downward movement of prices to take away the glamor from many of the vast financial projects upon which the stock market imagination has been fed | by persistent rumors From outside sources came few belated suggestions of deals, but they were without effect on prices. The slump in Rock Island to below 190 awakened some questioning about the benefit to accrue from some of the financial projects proposed which provide nearly always for practically converting stocks into foreclosure liabl- ities, with new stock to come after with voting power, but with questionable chances for dividends, thus making their holding for control cheap. It does not escape notice, either, that the more recently formed plans are not along the lines of community of interest, but rather towards strengthening of indi- vidual financial powers for more effec- tive competition with rivals. The re- ports of the illness of the president ot the United States Steel corporation. al- though denied. had a slightly depress- ing effect, and were supplemented by a rumor that the king of England was also not feeling so well. London bought stocks here,- however, and reported that the settlement was proceeding without failures. Some points of strength still remained in the market notably Nor. folk and Western, the Minneapolis anG St. Paul Sault Ste. Marie stocks, Anal. gamater Copper and Colorado Fuel. The market made considerable recovery during the latter part of the day, but there was nothing like an entire reviva of last weeks animation. The closing was irregular.
 Dealings in bonds were of unimport ant proportions and the tone was irreg. ular. Total sales par value $3,395, 900 United States bonds were unchanged or the last call.

SMALL FIRE LAST NIGHT.

The Chemical Extinguished the Blaze
 and the Damage Was Small
 An alarm of fire from box 19, corner of Congress avenue and Commerce street, shortly before o'clock last night, called the fire department to a brick tenement on Commerce street, near Temple. The building is the prop erty of I. Newman & Sons and is occu- pied by several families, most of the members of which are employed in the factory. The fire was in a small closet on the fourth floor in the apartment oc- cupied by George Clark. All the occu- pants of that floor left it about o'clock and they stated that there had been no fire since Saturday. They were unable to account for the fires origin, and the opinion prevailed that it was spontane- ous combustion. The chemical extin- guished the blaze. The loss was about $20.

FIRE IN EAST HARTFORD

Hartford, July 2S.-The large board ing house on North Main street, East Hartford, owned by the Wilbur J. King estate, was nearly burned to the ground early this morning. The prop erty was leased by Barney Quinn of Burnside avenue, who moved in about two weeks ago. A few articles were saved. Four cases of beer were rescued from the ruins. Quinn had an insur- ance of $1,S00 on the contents. The building was probably worth about $2,- 900.
