Italians Weep When Wounded
Soldiers Are Brought From Front

voia," "Vive the army"
But the Prince of Piedmont. flu
ture King of Italy, his eyes iasten-
ed eagerly on the two soldiers. be-
gan TO question them eagerly.
Have you seen papa-the king
The two soldiers, eyes filled with
tears. voices broken with emotion,
tried in vain to reply.
Il would like to go 10 the front
and fight with the soldiers for Italy
with papa he said affectionately,
trying with childish sympathy to en-
courage the two soldiers to talk.
But have you seen papa" he re-
iterated.
The two soldiers weeping and
laughing with emotion replied:
YES We have seen him. He gave
us these medals with his own hands.
He shook hands with us. He called
us his brave sons"
"And how is he?" cried the Crown
Prince.
Fine replied the soldiers. "and
lighthearted when among us. He acts
as though it we're a holiday instead
of war"
Then the two soldiers recounted
to the little prince all the details
of the encounter in which they were
wounded. And not until he had seen
them safely placed in the hospital
would he leave their sides. At the
station to greet the returning mer
from the front was also Queen Hell
ena, the Queen Mother marguerite
and the Duke of Genoa.
The number of wounded is .bein,
kept secret throughout Italy. Thl
Roman papers have not even beer
allowed to print the number OF to

New News Of Yesterday
How Some Prudent
Americans Secured
Themselves
nv Holland.

Many have been the reports since
the war in Europe began of the de-
moralization of the foreign exchange
market, and there was in August and
September of last year practically an
embargo upon exchange. since there
was little of it. and what there was
could only be bought upon something
like Shylock terms.
l have often been reminded, as
have read OF heard of the difficulties
in the foreign exchange market, of a
conversation which l had in the sum-
mer of 1900 with the late Frederick
ID. Tappan. who at that time was
chairman of the New York Clearing
House Association.
Il think il was in August said
Mr. Tappan, that I was summoned
from my country place in the Berk-
shires to New York. and recall
vividly my railroad ride in response
to that summons. for the train went
through the most frightful thunder
storm / ever experienced. When /
reached New York | found there was
great anxiety. The report prevailed
that Bryan was almost certain to be
elected President, and with him a
Congress which would enact free sill
yer legislation. This anxiety threat
ened to cause trouble. and it was my
duty to secure at least S25O0O,000 in
gold with which to build up a bull
wark against panic.
"As | went about among the banks
and came in contact with the dealers
OF foreign exchange, | found that a
good many persons had been buy
ing exchange on London. They were
doing this because they were appre-
hensive that victory by Bryan might
put the country upon a silver basis
With exchange on London they were
able to secure gold and deposit il
10 their credit in the London banks
and thereby protect themselves.
This scare did not last long and
there was no real panic, but for a DAY
or two / wondered whether we were
not to repeat the experience of 1895
In August of that year, all of .he
indications pointed to the election ot
Bryan and the free-silver Congress
You would be amazed If I were to tel
you the names or to give you an idea
of the number of persons who at thai
time bought exchange on London. The
movement reached large dimensions
so great. in fact. as to cause an ap
probation in the price of exchange
AS a result, there accumulated in Lon
don banks several millions of deposit:
which stood in the name of American.
Or next friends. and for which de-
mand in gold could be made ant

his attention for they wore upon

teen Scouts of Troops "a. 8 and will
leave this city on a hike" to Wash
ington, d. c.. early on Saturday morn
ing. The march will be made by easy
stages, from ten to twelve miles per
day. and the Scouts will erect their
tents and camp over night at such
places, en- route, as are found suitable.
Il is expected that the youthful di-
ciples of the early pioneers will reach
their destination in about ten days
and two or three days of sightseeing
will precede their return march.

made no objection whatever to the

consideration. For. be il known

capacity for marching of the boys, and
the well-known ability OF their leader
to hold down the hay in the morn

hour of the start each day the first
stop will be al Stanton. where the
cavalcade will rest over Sunday. and
subsequent stopping places will be
regulated by the conditions as Just
mentioned. especially the third "con-
ditiOn. However, IL is intended 10
stop over night, as far as possible, al
places where there are Scout Troops
in addition TO available camping sites
In this intention, the moods OF the
redoubtable "Scotty" have not been
considered, and, in the event that this
concentrated motive power plant may
slip a cog. or get water in the car

be subject to change without notice.
