CONGRESS AND CUBA.

Congress, in the opinion of the bes
intelligence and judgment of the coun
try, was guilty of one great sin Of
omission in failing to live up to the
moral obligation of the United States
to do something for the economic re-
lief of Cuba. 1t would have been
nothing more than decent to have
admitted all Cuban crops of the pres
ent year to the ports of the United
States duty free. We had taken con-
troll, and had spent Cuba's revenues
freely in reconstructing matters accord
ing to our own ideas. 1t was due to
our self respect to give the new Cuban
government a handsome send off,
Economic prosperity, as everyone
knew, was essential both to the sue
cess of Cuba's experiment in home
rule and to the establishment of per-
mainly satisfactory relations between
Cuba and the United States. Certain
Western agricultural interests, credit
ably eager to promote the development
of the american beet sugar industry,
were used as a cat's-psw by design
ing combination which, in turn. had
power enough at Washington to pre-
vent any action whatever. The stu
alton became a very complicated and

MILLER BOUND OVER,
The Bicycle Thief Held to the Grand
Jury.

Jury
Arthur Miller was Wednesday
arraigned before Judge Shissler on q
warrant sworn out by Roy R. Frazier,
charging him with the theft of a
bicycle on July 25th, amounting to
grand larceny in the second degree.
A. 81. Lossow appeared as his attorney
and waived an examination, and the
defendant was bound over to the Nov
ember term of the district court.
His bond was placed at $500.
The court stated that he had been
very lenient in the fixing of bonds
heretofore, and had been criticized for
it, In view of the amount of bonds
fixed by the higher court, he would
establish a precedent in the present
case, to be followed hereafter where
penitentiary offenses are charged.
The case against Frank Seifert,
charged with stealing some cigars
from J. M. Beinapf last spring, was
this morning dismissed in the NUM-
cipal court, on motion of County At
torney Wilson, and the lad was dis
charged.

silver dollars. SIS. 900, 900 in gold GER
ti6cates, $l85, 900, OOOs....in gold coins
and 81, 400. 900 subsidiary silver
coin. When the vaults at New York
are reconstructed it will be easier to
count the funds there, one of the
greatest difficulties that the examiners
encountered in the past being lack of
space. This has..necessitated the hand
ling of almosts..every piece of money
two or three times. The same trouble
, is delaying the examination of the
money in the Baltimore sub-treasury.
1t means big thing to the .employes
in the treasury department when the
government has a new treasurer.
Hundreds of millions of dollars have
to be counted, and the numerous
vaults with their white and yellow
boards are turned inside out as each
dollar is checked off. The last time
this was done it took a big corps of
laborers, superintendent by several ex-
pert examiners, from July until the
middle of the following February.
When the present treasurer relieved D.
N. Morgan he gave the latter re-
ceipt for 1896. 995. 439. II 2-S. that enor-
nous sum representing the amount of
money for which Mr.. Ellis Roberts
became responsible. The fraction of
cent was caused by the computing of
interest on trust bonds. Mr.. Morgan,
four years previously, gave to Treas
urer Nebeker a receipt for $40, ST.

COUNTING OF GOLD
In the Vaults of the U. S. S
Treasury.
Bio Work Soon to Be Undertaken b,
Officials - Manual Labor
Involved.

Washington, July 2S.-As soon Al
the work of reconstructing and re
arranging vaults in the New York sub
treasury is concluded, United States
Treasurer Ellis g. Roberts will order
that the entire storeiof money there be
counted. An examination of the
funds at New York is made necessary
by the reappoinsment of Treasurer
Jordan, the law requiring that the re-
tirement of sucbran official or his re-
appointment for another term of years
shall be followed by a complete and
thorough settling of his books and a
comparison of the same with the act
ual amount OF money on hand. When
things are ready for the count at the
New York sub the task will
engage the attention of corps OF ex-
pert examiners and dozen or more
day laborers for two or three months.
A tremendous amount of manual
labor is involved in an undertaking of
this kind, and tons and tons of gold
and silver are shifted from place to
place. An examination is now being
made Of the money in ithe San Fran
cisco sub-treasury, the assistant treas
urer there, Julius Jacobs, having been
commissioned for another term of four
years A special committee from the
treasury department., consisting of
four men from Treasurer Roberts
Office, left this city on the 23d of last
month to superintend the work. They
began the counting process on the 30th
of June and are still at it, and will
probably be busy for two weeks more.
There is q total of more than $780,,
900, 600 in cash in the San Francisco
" sub treasury, every penny of which
has to be counted. Of this sum $27,
900, 900 is in gold coin and $50, 900, 900
in silver dollars. Gold money is usu-
ally put up in bags containing So, 900
each and silver is stored in bags of
81, 600 each. Some idea of the enorm-
ity of job of accounting for $50, 900,
600 in silver dollars may be gained
from the fact that a bag containing
only 81, 600 weighs sixty pounds A
S., 900 bag of gold weighs a little less
than nineteen pounds.
At the close of business in New
York last week the $780, 20
