Problems of UnemploYed.

All kinds of wild statements and a limited assortment of wise ones are finding their way into print about the number of the unemployed in Amer ican cities and especially in New York at the present time. From the csti- mate in Charities. placing the unem- ploved of New York at 25.0p0, to that of Mir. Bruere. general agent of the association for improving the condi- tions of the poor that there are at least sp.neo unemployed union men. andTas many more unorganized labor CTS in this city. the margin of error is wide. + is sufficient to say. however, that the Charities estimate. unless il is meant to apply estimates. including that officially issued by the depart ment of labor at Albany agree closely with MT Brusre's figures. The trade unions themselves reported for the month of December that 4 per cent of their men were idle Inasmueh as the unions do not class a member as un- employed if he has as much as tsyo days af Nork a week. and do not aid hlm if he has one day q week, these fignres siyow serious state of affairs.
 From ,1fEz nilations engaged in re- lieying destination. the appeals te the public for aid are more urgent than Ns remember them to have been for a generation. Individuals who know the situation well privately remark that there has been no such distress in Nets York City for at least thirtTfive years.

tempt of the national and state govern ments to make corporations obey the law of the land have brought upon all this misery The simpletOns who be- live such stuff should provide them selves with a few recent issues of Eu- ropean newspapers and magazines. They will find that the Aemrican situ- ation is paralleled in London, in Der lin and m Milan.
 The one fact that cannot be blinted or lodged is that an increasingly large percentage of mankind is outside the margin of economic safety. When times are booming, it finds employ ment at living wages. which, however, do not provide for contingencies As often as the lean years come. this rag geG edge of the wage labor class is unhesitatingly dropped from the rolls and thrown upon the tender mercies of the charitable.

Baltimore and Providence. the task of baffling the fence" Is greatly simplificd by ab- solutely restricting the number of pawnshops to four or five. But in this happy hunting ground of thieves the swarm of pawnbrokers is SO dense and their regulation SO innocuous that the laws seem to have been framed either by light@finsered gentry or by light wits. The yearly license Is $500. a sum which any pickpocket could raise on short notice. Account books must always be open to the mayor, the criminal courts. the city magistrates. and the police; but as every pawnbrok- er chooses his own method of book keeping this requirement is a merry farce and would continue Co be one even 1T every policeman were an ex- peri auditor.

Gold Stolen by Miners.

Statisticiaus compile tables of the worlds production of gold yearly. but all admit that It Is impossible to give accurate figures because not a little of the metal is stolen and never figures in the returns of production. In q country like China, where the industry of gold mining is poorly organized and controlled, this source of error in the returns of output is very important.
 Professor dc Launay in his recent book on gold says that the gold in dusfFy in no country escapes the evil Of thievery. Gold stealing goes on everywiie1e, but the extent of the evil varies according to tho country and the efficiency bt the supervision oyer miners.
 Gold from its natufs is easy In ataaI and to sell. In the T4zlnsvaal il is es+ timated that from to 10 per cent of all the gold extracted from the ores of the Witwatersrand afe stolen.
 The gold thief is able fp sfea1 on larger scale in such q country as si- beria, where the miners are flors iso= lated and corruption is more common. There the thieves even venture 10 fgm= Der sometimes with work superintgnds ents who for a share Of the piekings will give favorable opportunities for stealing. According to Mr. Levat,s statemsits in his book on gold mining in eastern Siberia. the quantity of gold stolen from Siberian mines. is not less than g9 per cent of the entire output

In 1896. 1000 adventurcrs drove the mining companies and their employees from the gold district of the Zeya river and washed out large amount of gold before they finally fled on the approach of a regiment of Cossacks. Not a particle Of The gold they mined has been included in the figures of production.
 II was found also in is0 that gold mining along the border between French Guiana and Brazil, where the placers were remarkably rich, had been carried on for several years with out any supervision whatever, and not an ounce of the gold was included in the statistics.-New York Sun.
