WHY CANADA REJECTS COIN.
Presence of S1,000,OOO Worth
Causes Loss to Dominion

Presence of S1.0OO.OOO Worth
Causes Loss to Dominion.
Our neighborS will soon have return
ed to them the small change that has
drifted out of their circulation and has
for years been tossing about in ours,
says the Toronto Mail and Empire.
The nickels. the dimes, the Decent
pieces, the 50-cent pieces and the dollar
pieces that bear, if not exactly the
image and superscription, at all events
the emblem of Uncle Sam will vanish
from the pockets and the tills to and
from which they used to pass in this
country on equal terms with our own
silver coin. Under an Arrangement
made by the finance department with
the banks the latter are arreSting all
the American silver coins that como
into their bands. At the beginning Of
the present month the plan for the ex-
clusion of this alien money came into
operation. All of the American pieces
that reach the banks will be sorted
and shipped TO New York, where they
will be received at the agency of the
Bank Of Montreal. 1t is not because
they will be specially benefited by the
radiance that the banks are helping the
coin out. Though the amount of this
American metallic money III Canada is
estimated ut $1,000,0O0, 1t does not com
pete TO any apsreciable extent with
bank currency, which is all in the form
Of notes of no lower denomination
than 50.
1t Is true If we give facility to the
circulation of American coin we invite
American paper money. Doubtless there
would be less of the latter here If the
silver of our neighbors were always
refused in Canada.
however, not bank money, that is dis
placed by American silver passing in
Canada. And with the dominion gov
ernment the loss Is no mere interest
charge. The government loses the diff
ference between the coin value and the
bullion value. The metal in a 50-cent
piece costs the government about 23
cents. The piece of bullion for which
it pays out % cents is stamped into
coin, which is accepted by the creditors,
Suppliers or employees of the govern
Eleht as payment for 80 cents worth
OF service, material or credit. If the
$l,0oO,OOO of American silver had not
been in the country $1,0O0,0O0 of Cana
dian silver would have been required.
To provide this money the government
would have had to spend about $780,
600, but as it would have got 10000
for 1t there would have been profit OF
$55O,0O0. This should not be foregone
because of indulgence toward our neigh
bors or because we are too careless to
look after our own interests. BY keep
ing Its money here we were really con-
tributing more than 100000 to the
revenue Of the United States

BONDING TRUST ALLEGED,
New York Companies Accused of Combin-

NEW YORK, June pa hearing on
an application of Frederick B. Davidson
of Brooklyn to have all the bonding com
panies of New York deprived of their
charters on the ground that they con-
stitute monopoly, will be given by At
torney General Mayer on July 10. The
companies named by Davidson in his
affidavit are the American Surety COM
pany, Bankers Surety company, Fed
eral Union Surety company, Fidelity and
Casualty company, Metropolitan Surety
company, United States Guarantee com
pany, and the United Surety company.
Davidson charges that the defendants
entered into an agreement to conduct all
the bonding business on uniform scale
of prices, regulated by the amount of
the bonds required.
1t is understood that the defense will
take the ground that bonding is not
necessary of life. and that companies
engaged in that business. therefore, do
not come under the provision of the
statute.

Overseer Voliva.

CHICAGO, Ill, June 29.-That Moses
and other ancient prophets were insane

ton of mind Of First Apostle" John
Alexander Dowie, in the Zion City con-
troversy now on trial before Judge *.
NJ Lands Ill the United States district
court.
incidentally the alienist declared he
would look with suspicion upon the mind
of an individual who had the training
and actions of Wilbur Glenn Noliva.
DR.. Church has already given it as
his opinion that Dowie is mentally I'M
balanced
Attorney Haley, representing Dowie,
put to the insanity expert u long hypo-
thetical question purportlng to set forth
the life of Noliva, and then asked him
whether or not such a man was men
tally unbalanced.
In answer DR.. Church said that he
would look upon the mind of such an in
dividual with suspicion, and that, as a
physician, he would carefully investi-
gate his mental attributes. He further
declared that he did not believe such a
man capable of handling a large estate.
Assuming that man saw a bush on
fire, and from that bush came a voice.
which said: Take off thy shoes, for the
ground upon which thou walk is sacred
i quote from the book of Exodus of
the Bible-would you think that man
insane?"
Il object" again said Attorney New
mann for Voliva.
Cut out the Exodus" said the court,
"and bring the question down to date,
and you may answer
4 would say he was insane" said the
witness.
Actions of DR.. Dowie in Australia and
other places were then cited by the at
torney, and the witness was asked
whether or not they indicated insanity.
