Tageblatt today. The statement, after
affirming that the government intends
to firmly keep It's present position. dis
cusses tariff possibilities in connection
with commercial treaties as follows:
It is an error to assume that treaties
continue in force tacftly, II not de-
nounced, for altho their continuance
may be advantageous for foreign
states, the latter may be placed in a
situation where they are compelled to
denounce them. For example. If pres

Russia would abandon her treaty with
Germany. Suppose Russia were to try
to raise her next great loan in the

Russia give tariff preference to goods
of American origin. especially against
the United States chief competitor
Germany. This would directly compel
Russia to renounce her German treaty.

A prominent physician of Baltimore
has been busy of late trying to regu.
late his practice so that he may enjoy
an extended fishing trip. His early
arrangements have not been propi-
tious, though he has boasted of the
great catches which he anticipates
making In Canadian waters. He has
purchased fishing outfit at cost Of
about 800, bought railroad tickets,
figured up hotel bills and other ex-
penses, and set aside an amount OF
money sufficient to pay all bills for
himself and his wife for the trip. The
fishing tackle was sent to his home
late at night, and he and his wife,
after duly admirlng 1t, retired.
Then came trouble which nearly re-
suited in a divorce suit. Thoughts of
the coming fishing trip so filed the
Doctors mind that he could not sleep,
as he arose, assembled his split-bam-

it, he carefully opened window and
began to make casts into the open

PAWlNING A $1,000 BILL

OF n man with q thousand-dollar
bill in his pocket and no smaller
amount Of money, q story has been
written that traced him through many
experiences and took him to the verge
OF starvation. But, as a matter OF
fact, one man who had nothing small
er than q one.thousand-dollar bill got
through the difficulty very easily in
this city few nights ago.
Ten of these coveted promissory
notes Of the United States had been
paid to him In the afternoon. In the
pursuit Of business and a modlcum Of
pleasure he had, after the receipt of
his $4,000. spent the last dime he
possessed other than the big bills.
He was with some friends, any one
of whom could and would have ac-
commodated him with sufficient mon
ey for his needs, but discussion
arose about what he would do IL he
were a stranger In the city and had
no money other than that which was
in his pocket.

taking such a bill from any OF u.s.

about it, either. I'll get change the

And won't go to any man who knows
me-"
The wager was accepted. and the
man with $4,000, taking one friend
with him, walked out to pawn shop.
He said to the clerk only this:
II have received 700 In ten bills.

you like. call up Mr. -. who paid
the money to me, and he will tell you
If am all right"
The pawnbroker looked at him
keenly for a second and then said:
Il never took money as a pledge
but you are sober and seem all right,
and you can have the $25. Give me
the one-thousand-dollar bill"
The pawnbroker examined the bill
carefully and then, to the astonish'
ment of the others, took another one
thousand-dollar bill out of his safe
and compared them. Then, just as
he would make out ticket for ring
