CALLS WILSON MISLEADING
Facts Not All Given in Passage il
History. It Is Said.

To the Editor of The Tribune.
Sir: In reading Mr.. Wilson's History
OF The American People" was surprised
to find the following on page III, Vol
ums 5:
I'm 1850 the Republicans had carried
New York by safe margin OF more than
q 900 votes, and yet In 1882, but two years
later, Mr.. Cleveland had been preferred
10 an unimpeachabie opponent by a piu-
rality OF 10000"
This IS a strange statement for a man
10 put into a history which is expected to
be read by future generations. and II is
especially strange for q man whom a
reputable New York newspaper charac-
terized after his nomination for President
as "a cultured scholar. an eminent edu-
Gator. lifelong student OF the history
and theory OF government" Does not
Mr.. Wilson know that the Democratic
candidate for Governor in 1880, although
defeated, received about 10000 more votes
than Mr.. Cleveland received I'm 1852, and
that Mr.. Cleveland's big plurality I'm 1852
was due to the fact that the Republicans
refrained from voting for his ''unImpesch-
by default7
This letter must not be construed as a
reflection on Mr.. Cleveland. II is written
to show that Mr.. Wilson is either igno-
rant or dishonest. The young man or
woman of this generation who was not
born until after 1882 will infer from read
Ing Mr.. Wilson's history that men OF all
parties in 1889 tumbled over each other
TO vote for Mr.. Cleveland. And appar-
entity this was the intention Of the his
torian. J. d. W.

In money affairs the foreign situa-

pectantly, as movements of Foreign
finance reflect In a way the prospect
of a peaceful settlement of the Balkan
affairs. The return of the Bank Oh
England last week showed a decrease
in gold reserve, but the bullion hold
ings were 37,33G,954, compared with
f36, 41S,414 in 1911 and t32, 400 IN
1910. The reserve was given at tZh-
$4,000. In 1911 ii was To- '45,olf

however, than a year ago. The state
ment, although showing reduction OF
reserve to liabilities TO 4I.T2 per cent
as compared with 1888 per cent FOR
the previous week, was not untaVor-
able. The Bank Of France on Thursday
last advanced its discount rate to
per cent. This was the second time
during the month, the rate having been
advanced from per cent TO 312 per
cent on October Il. The action by the
Bank Of France will doubtless DE fol-
lowed by increases in the rates of the
Imperial Bank of Germany and the
Bank of England. There is strain on
the finances of Europe, but no alarm
is felt at present. In local money al
fairs there has been a hardening OF
rates, and call money during the week
advanced to its highest point Of the

tinucd to lose through the Sub-Treas-
ury, and there is little 10 warrant eX-

field in the near future.

retort which rings true and TO which

to attempt reply. ....
Equally effective is Mr.. StOkes's de-
scription Of the mental characteristics
of some of the Third Term prOpagan-
dists. "They unconsciously and hon
estly," he says, think In terms of the
personal Ego instead Of in terms or
humanity. Their own attitude in a
public situation, looms up larger than
"the welfare of their fellow men,
That quality Of the Third Term eX-
ploitation has been conspicuous and
paramount from the very beginning i'll

In not few cases, indeed, it has been
characteristic through all Of their po-
litical careers Of the men who now dis
play It. Mr.. Stokes's apt exposure Is
made with the authority Of man who
was one of the most enlightened and
progressive Governors New Jersey ever
had, and who yet has found it perfectly
compatible with progress to be loyal to
the party of progress. We are inclined
TO think that large majority Of Jer-

DISPUTES BRONX FIGURES
Estimate of S1,96S,000 to Run New
County Declared Too High.

TO the Editor OF The Tribune.
Sir: In a recently published letter
Charles II. Ayres states that the cost OF
Bronx County will be about 1855, 900 an
nually No man can tell To a dollar just
what the new county will cost, but there
are certain guide posts which lead TO
right conclusion. For instance, the APP
preparations for Kings County for the
year 1912 are sl.S64,s so l3.
Kings County Is almost four times as
large as The Bronx. and can any reason
able man say that II will cost more 10 run
Bronx County than IL does TO run Kings
a fairer test is shown in Queens County
which has all the machinery for county
government, the cost OF which for the
year 1912 is $3S4,5l 50.
The $4,000 in round figures which The
Bronx contributed 10 New York County
in 1912 would be sufficient To run a county
government there, and the payment OF TINS
sum to New York County would, OF
course. stop at once on the creation OF
Bronx County. IL win also be noted that
the cost of county offices In the Bronx
County bill, $lI.5co, Is we'll within the
amount that The Bronx now contributes
to New York County.
Assuming that Bronx County would
cost 100000 moro than we are now pay
Ing, although 1t is doubtful II It will cost
any more, this excess cost would Dc
raised on an assessed valuation OF real
property in The Bronx OF more than SOIL
100000. Figuring this out, II is seen that
tho excess cost, IL any, would be about Id
cents thousand. In other words, man
who is assessed on $1,000 of realty would
pay about 81 80 annually. If anything, for
nA cost Of Bronx County.

bourg, the crown of the little prin.
cipality passes to his eldest daughter,
the Grand Duchess Marie, a girl who
has not yet reached the eighteenth
anniversary of her birth.
This young girl may in the near
future have to wrestle with some very
complicated international problems OF
the greatest Importance. The years OF
her childhood have been gloomy, and
1t cannot be said that the outlook is
very bright for Luxembourg as a ma.
ton.
For the last ten years the grand
duchess's father, Wilhelm Alexander,
had been an invalid. A few weeks
after his accession to the throne he
was stricken with ~apoplexy. For five
years he had seldom been removed
from his bed and his wife, the Prin.
cess Maria Anna, Infanta of Portugal,
and his daughters hardly ever left the
castle of Hohenberg in upper Bavaria,
where in the peace of the mountains
and forests physicians were trying to
save him from his fate. In the city
of Luxembourg as well as in Berlin,
Munich and Vienna the grand duchess
and her children were strangers.
They could not with propriety attend
any social functions. The grand duke,
too weak to be brought back to his
own country, found himself to all pur'
poses an exile in Bavaria. This is
why, except the fact that she is a
rather gifted musician, very little is
known concerning the personality OF
the young duchess.
For the first time in its history
Luxembourg will have a ruler born
on its own soil. Grand Duchess Marie
was born in the capital on June IA,
1894. One of the smallest independ.
emit nations in the world, Monaco alone
having a smaller area, Luxembourg
had always been ruled by foreign
princes.
Strangely enough the national an

the words, Wen always remain wha

CHURCH OF HIDDEN TREASURE
Walls Of This Edifice Said to Contain
a Chest Full Of Money and
Jewels.

Barelas, N. MA small building
popularity known as THE Church Of
Hidden Treasure" stands In this lit
tie town. During the Mexican war
many of the richest families in the
neighborhood had their gold and valu-
ables in all sorts of curious places.
Senior Sandoval, a very rich land
owner, chose the thick walls Of the
village church as his treasure vault,
according to a writer in The Wide
World, and tradition says that the pre-
cious hoard has never been re-
moved.
Only a few years ago several groups
Of men, armed with pickaxes, crow
bars and other implements, besieged
the place In search of the fabulous
wealth said to be concealed some
where on the premises. The treasure
Is believed to be contained in a large
wooden chest, such as most Of the
wealthy Mexicans formerly possessed.
1t Is claimed that the box contained
thousands of dollars in gold, besides
emefalds, diamonds and pearls.
The Sandoval family, however, guard
the place most carefully, while they in
turn are jealousy watched to see that
they do not disturb the church proper
ty. Bold and daring plans are some
times laid, but nothing seems to come
Of them, and the ancient building still
guards its precious secret
