SELECTIONS FROM THE MAIL.
PLAN TO SEND MONEY BY MAIL.

PRESENT INCONVENIENCE IN SENDING SMALL.
SUMS SHOWN.
To the Editor of The Tribune
Sir: Having occasion recently to send out Of
town for number of small articles. II has been
brought home to in a very forceful manner
that there is convenient system of sending
small sums of money through mails For in
stance, l desire to send cash with orders where
purchases amount to 81 or less. If 1 send cash
there IS a chance of the coin breaking through the
wrapper or being appropriated by dishonest clerk
who detects its presence by its weight The money
order system is too slow and cumbersome.
would suggest that you advocate the issuance
OF scrip by the Postoftce Department of the de-
nominations of one cent, two cents five and
20 cents to be redeemed at any postoffice in the
country and not TO be reiSSUed. I think that sucn
an innovation would be a great convenience to the
public and Of great assistance TO the merchant in
great trade centres in caring for country trade

of the Mueller Bros, who had tailoring
shop on the upper floor: When the fire
broke out they were at work and before
they could leave the building the ire
burned out the stairs which was their
only exit. They made their way to the
back window and looked out. Beneath
was the sloping side of the bluff, the
nearest part of which was seventy feet
below. Il looked like sudden death to
leap, but to remain meant a more terrible
end. They hesitated a moment and then
one of them sprang out. He struck the
grounA and slid down the slipping side of
the ravine fully fifty feet. A moment
later the other followed, also sliding to
the foot of the bluff.
They were picked up unconscious, but
revived a few minutes later and, contrary
to the expectations of all who saw their
desperate leap, fully recovered from their
injuries. One of them died few years
ago, but August Mueller still lives in
ST Paul and well remembers his lean
for life from~the burning building.
The ruins still stand, as it was never
considered feasible TO rebuild the block
and as they stand on the side of the bluff
the ground has never been needed for.
other purposes. They stand there TODAY
to tell the story of the loss Of human life
and of one of the most miraculous
escapes from a burning building recorded
in the annals of any city Covered win
moss and crumbled by the weather there
is little about them to suggest to .oe
passer-by the story which they have to
tell, but rather present an appearance
which would appeal to the artist rather
than the seeker after romance.

WHEREIN HAVE
We ERRED?
is THE PERTINENT QUERY PRO
POUNDED BY TWO OHIO
RAILROADS
ACCUSED OF CONSOLIDATING
Answer to Complaint Points Out
That the Roads Cannot Control
Sale of Their Stock on
the Market.

COLUMBUS, Ohio, Feb. S.-The an
swers of the Hooking alley and Ohio
Central Railway companies to the suits
recently brought in Logan and Crawford
counties to GUST them from their char
tiers, were filed late this afternoon. The
suits charge that two railroads, which
are parallel, have been unlawfully con-
solidated, and that in their alliance with
certain coal companies, they virtually
constitute a trust. In the answers,
which are practically identical, a gener-
al denial is entered as to the alleged
trust between the companies named.
Interrogatories relating to officers Of
the companies are answered, but It is
clatimed that it is not practical to give
a list of the stockholders, since the stock
is sold on the market and is constantly
changing hands. The answers assert
that the defendant companies have no
definite knowledge as to whether the J.
P. Morgan company owns 81 per cent
of the said companies, and, therefore,
cannot deny the same has been used by
said J. P. Morgan & Co. to carry on the
purposes of the alleged combination and
the prevention Of competition between
said lines.
The defendant companies then move
the court that the plaintiff be required,
by pleading, to set forth wherein said
companies have entered into a combi-
nation to preclude a free and unrestrict-
ed competition among themselves.

aisintegrating influence Of the elements.
These fuins, as they stand, covered with
moss and dirt, are all that remains Of
a building which occupied the site nearly
forty years ago. Hundreds Of people
coming to and leaving the city on the
passenger trains that pass them each
day see these ruins, but they little sus-
pect the story which they have to tell.
If any are curious enough to inquire
what they were, it is doubtful if anyone
can be found who remembers. Concert
Hall block, which stood there until the
summer of 1870, and usually the matter
is dropped without learning the exciting
story connected with the destruction Of
the building.
Concert Hall block was erected some
time during the early sixties, and was
at that time one of the best buildings
in the city, The lower part of the
structure, which was three stories below
the level of Third street, was occupied
by storehouse, and at the time Of the
fire which destroyed the building was
filled with sleighs and hay. The upper
stories were rented as offices, while on
the top floor Bryant, Stratton & Perky
had a business college. Mueller Bros
also had a tailor shop at the back of
the building on the same floor.
May 10, 1870, fire started in some manner
in the building and in a few minutes the
entire structure was wrapped in flames.
The fire department responded promptly,
but the hay which was stored in the
lower story, caught on fire and gave forth
so much heat that the tremen were
literally driven away from the building.

WAS M'KINLEY
THWARTED
INTINIATION THROWN OUT IN DE-
BATE IN GERMAN PARLIAMENT
THAT ENGLAND DID NOT
DESIRE BIEIETALLISM

BERLIN, Feb. S.-During a debate in
the lower house DR.. Arendt, honorable
secretary Of the German Bimetallic lea
que, remarking upon the price of silver,
asked how DR.. Barth, leader of the
Freisinnige party, STARED when he went
to the United States to help President
Mckinley agitate after his election. Mr..
Mckinley, said DR.. Arendt almost Sc
cured a victory for bimetallism, ana If
that victory was thwarted when the goal
was almost in sight it was simply due to
the British ministry breaking its word.
Herr Goethein, secretary of the Bres-
lau Chamber of Commerce, and free
trader, asked whether President McKin-
ley would not have committed a greater
breach Of faith if, after election upon a
sound currency platform, he had turned
in favor Of bimetallism.
DR.. Arendt asserted that President
Mckinley had been elected oypR basis. Of
bimetallism, but had been prevented
from realizing that policy.
Herr Won Kreecher, president of the
house, censured the members for their
remarks charging friendly power with
g. rbeach of faith.
