President and his friends respecting the
tariff Neither Mr.. Underwood nor Mr..
Simmons sees any disquiet in business
circles as the result of the revision of
the Payne law. Their assurance TO the

Auction Fakes.

Good work has been done by Assistant
Attorney Hawken and the police in dis
covering and raiding the fake auctioneers
who have for some months past been
working Washington. These establish
meDts have thrived upon the credulity
OF the public and have unquestionably
perpetrated swindles costing the people a
large sum in the aggregate Pretending
to sell unredeemed pawnbrokers' pledges.
these auctioneers have it is alleged in
fact sold practically nothing but cheap
jewelry and other articles made especially
for this traffic. IL they had conducted a
legitimate auction business. making no
goods, they would have been beyond the
reach of the law. But when they sold
things upon false representations. declar-
ing brass 10 be gold and thin-plated stuff
TO be solid silver and the cheapest of
watches to be high-grade timepieces. they
have been committing frauds. Further
more, even as auctions these transactions

make fake bids on goods to bring up the
prices and, If the genuine bidder Is EVIL

posed TO repudiate 1t, to carry the price

In stock. In these so-called auction rooms
the buyer has no assurance OF honesty

representatives of the law have been able
TO obtain evidence OF these frauds and
the arrests that have just been made
should put an end to the trick in Wash

from its own rashness in buying from
unknown sources.

Napkin Rings.
From the Columbus Dispatch.

Somebody has discovered that among
the gifts to ex-King Manuel and his
bride there were several gold napkin
rings set with diamonds. and the dis
covery has raised the question: do
persons Of royal birth use a napkin
more than once" OF course. Manuel is
not now strictly In the king row. and
his bride is several times removed
from the royal circle. But their we'd
ding was attended by personages Of
high If not the highest rank, and
some of their presents came from
kings and queens. Royal taste must
have determined the character Of the
more costly wedding gifts, and so we
are led to the awful conclusion that
royalty. when it finishes one meal,
folds its napkin and puts 1t into a ring
ready for use at the next. There Ia.
perhaps, no reason why It shouldn't,
but life at restaurants and hotels has
impaired to some persons the notion
that even near royalty might. without
undue extravaganza, indulge In a fresh
napkin at each and every meal.

A Bureau of Identification.
.om the New York World.


Thanks to the scandal Of delay in
identifying the body Of Timothy D. Sulli-
van. New York is at last to have a
notice bureau for the Identification OF the
unknown dead. Its need was long ago
made apparent When the remains OF q
citizen as well known as the late Bowery
leader can lie in the morgue unrecognized
for two weeks and escape the potter
field in the end only by chance, 1t Is clear
that Of the thousands OF bodies consign-
ed to unmarked graves many might be
reclaimed by relatives and friends II
there existed an adequate system OF iden-
titication Who knows but that Dorothy
Arnold is buried in the potter's field,
together with countless others Of the
missing who disappear in circumstances
of less sensational publicity? New York
has long neglected its duty to its un-
known dead It Is satisfactory to have
a sense OF its responsibility shown by
measures to correct this defect Of munic-
ipal administration.
