ly to the fact that mnnry la being raised for the repayment ior ine euu ui ocirmi loans to the Relchsbank. Cheerful Tone In Loadoa. LONDON. Oct. 19. The continued abundance of money, combined with the easing of monetary conditions in the United Slates and the news regarding the settlement of the coal strike, caused a cheerfulness on the Stock Exchange last week such as has not been known for months past. The plentifulness of money is largely explained by the fact that the government has disbursed nearly 160.000,000 within the past ten days. It is expected, however, that the present superabundance of money to Joan will disappear this week, thus bringing the market back to the bank, which will resume Its customary control; a consequent general hardening of money will be affected. Finanzier are apprehensive that vi n lese the market prices of money closely approximate the bank s minimum rate of 4 per cent., the latter's reserve, which is already rather low, will be considerably decreased by foreign demands for gold, which may necessitate a further rise in the rate.

The Jews, Ire writes, are persecuted, not on account of their religion, but because if they were naturalized and treated Justly they would own half the land, and, In short, "run" the country.

Coal However, Is Poor and Sells at High Prices America Leads the World in Refined OH Output. WASHINGTON, Oct. 19.-A bulletin issued by the United States Geological Survey on the subject of Russian and American petroleum production says that since 1897 Russia has produced more petroleum than the United States, last year the output in Russia being 85,000,000 barrels and in the United States 69.000.000 barrels. The facilities for handling the large Russian product are at present crude, costly and wasteful. The markets are far away from the production. It is said that three and a half barrels of oil equals one ton of Russian coal, which is high priced and inferior in quality. It is the irregular supply and the fluctuating price which interfere with the sale of larger quantities of fuel oil in the great interior of Russia. During 1900 Russia produced about 17.800,000 short tons of coal, the higher grades of which sell for from $7 to $8 per ton. During the same year the United States produced about 270.000,000 short tons of coal. All the countries bordering on the Mediterranean are poorly supplied with fuel. Two-thirds of the total production of oil at Baku, about 81,000,000 barrels in 1901, now find a market as fuel oil. The total petroleum exports from Russia in 1901 were 428.657,210 gallons and from the United States during the same year 1,062,750,306 gallons. The very great difference between the petroleum of the United States and that of Russia is shown in the statistics of refined petroleum. Of the total world's production of crude petroleum In 1901, 165,385.733 barrels, the United States produced 69.389,194 barrels, or 41,97 per cent., and Russia produced 85.168.566 barrels, or 51.49 per cent., and yet of the total production of refined petroleum of all grades In 1901. estimated at 1.500,000.000 gallons for all countries, the United States produced 911,120,944 gallons, or 60.7 per cent., and Russia 414,122,990 gallons, or only 27.7 per cent. Foreign Fashions Not Permanent. New York Times. A new feature of life in New York this season is the freedom with which women of a class that has hitherto been timidly conventlonal go about the streets alone at night. This Is in reality a return to an old American custom one of several returns that are so recent as to have passed unnoticed. For example. the European chaperon system, which took shallow root but had a flourishing growth, is decaying so rapidly that It Is as good as dead. Again the craze for foreigners with titles is in a swift decline. Again, the tendency is all away from formalities and "excluslveness," and all toward simple and healthful, if not always very rational or intellectual, enjoyments. The reason for this reassertlon of Americanism is that we are "finding ourselves" again nationally, in the early days, when we were shut off from Europe, we built up a national mode of our own. Then came the fast steamers, the inundation of foreign ideas, the eager trial of those ideas one of the fine characteristics of America is its disposition to hope that some one else knows "how to do it" better than It knows, a characteristic which makes for broadmlnde'dness and progress. We have tried sundry European ideas. Some of them we have permanently adopted, after properly adapting them. Others we are now rejecting. And with a simple democrat like Roosevelt in the White House and common-sense people everywhere more influential every day. we shall soon reject several others that are conspicuously un-American and unfit for Americans. Slow Work. New York Evening Post. To erect uniform barriers against quack doctors in thirty States is the laudable purpose of the members of the medical boards In several of those States. Under existing conditions the output of the fake "medical" colleges in the West has a wide fleld in which to "practice" on ailing and credulous humanity, with the consent and apparent authorization of the State. A mere statement of this fact ought to be enough to secure restrictive legislation, but the physicians who go Jauntily to the several capltols with their uniform bills need to be warned of obstacles and disappoint ments. Their brother professionals, law yers, pioneers In the movement for uniformity In legislation, have been seeking a common negotiable instrument for years, and have not yet succeeded in lining up thirty States on that measure: while th uniform divorce bill lagn even more disappointingly. There is strength in numbers, however, and the entrance of the physicians into the field may give a needed impetus to the good cause. Injured In a Collision. B RAINE RD, Minn..

SENTIMENT OF DISGUST

TERRF. HAITE HAS HAD EXOVGII OF STREET-FAIR EXPERIENCE. The Jail Is Full. Courts Are Full of Cases and the Show Caused a Plethora of Domestic Discord. TWO BOYS ROBBED AND BEATEN LOCKED II A CAR, WHERE THEY IUI FOI XD XKARLY DEAD. Gates and the Indiana Coal Fields Farmer Killed by His Own RifleClark Republicans Are Hopefnl. Special to the Indianapolis Journal. TORRE HAITI:, Ind., Oct. 19. The aftermath of the street fair is a record number of inmates of the jail, stranded showmen, lively business in the justices' courts, vanishing showmen wanted on one charge or another, a new record for paid admissions to the shows 150,000 and a distinct feeling of "enough" on the part of merchants and the public generally. Kepner, the Paris, 111., teamster, is held for further investigation into the causes of the death of William Poppers, a Terre Haute painter, whom he slapped on Friday night and who died Saturday afternoon. The doubt is as to whether Poppers's death was caused by drink or the blow. Kepner's friends from Paris, 111., are rallying to his aid. William Stotts. also from near Paris, has been released on $1,000 bond on the charge of shooting with intent to kill. He was drunk at a merry-go-round and shot a railroad brakrman named Poulter in the neck, causing a slight wound. The bullet, after passing through the fleshy part of Poulter's neck, struck a twelve-year-old girl riding in the merry-go-round in the hip, causing a serious wound. Nemo, the man who is "buried alive," jumped the town leaving angry creditors. A Mrs. Meyers, with the aid of the police, got her daughter as she was on the eve of running away with Nemo. Belle Weir, a girl from Cedar Rapids, was found in a show here by her mother and taken home. One man was arrested for slapping his wife, and he explained to the court that his wife was mad because he would not stay on the street late at night. He had to go to work at 3 o'clock in the morning, and when Bhe continued the argument after they had gone to bed he slapped her. She jumped out of bed and went for the police. Another man was arrested for slapping his mother-in-law, and he told the court that she angered him when he was remonstrating with his wife for gadding about the street fair with her mother. Mrs. William Taylor, of Worthington, lost her husband Thursday in the street fair and she wants the police to help find him. ItOS BEATE AM) ROBBED. Locked in an Air-Tight Car Nearly Dead When Fonnd.

Harrison County Farmer Who Had a Flieht with Another. Special to the Indianapoll Journal. IfKW ALBANY. Ind.. Oct. 19.-BenJamin Brinley, son of James Brinley. was shot and killed last night by George Cromwell In front of the latter's home, three miles southeast of Elizabeth, Harrison county, and about fifteen miles from this city.

ing. Brinley was shot through the heart and fell dead In his tracks. Cromwell has not yet been arrested Brinley, Turner and several other young men were going to a dance and passed Cromwell's house.

It Will Ileum In Day at EvansvllleCircumstances of the Case. Special to the Indianapolis Journal. EVANSVILLR, Ind., Oct. 19 The trial of Wilbur S. Sherwell, the former patrolman who is charged with the murder of three women, will begin to-morrow morning at 9 o'clock. He will first be tried on the charge of the murder of Mrs. Georgia Railey. The trial will last a week or ten days. The attorneys of Sherwell will try to establish an alibi. One year ago last Wednesday Oct. 15, 1901 Wilbur S. Sherwell was arrested on suspicion of having committed two murders. Ten days before that time Mrs. Georgia Railey and Miss Lena Renner were both killed on the same night, but tluir dead bodies were found alongside country roads leading from the city and miles apart. Wilbur S. Sherwell was a member of the police force of the city, and none of the members of the department worked harder than he seemingly did to unravel the mystery surrounding the killing of the two women. A few days later there were whisperings that a policeman was suspected of the double crime. The policemen when they assembled at headquarters night and morning discussed the crime and talked of the suspicion that pointed toward one of their number. Sherwell was with them, and it was later recalled that he never showed the least sign of nervousness. He was arrested on Oct. 15, and when attempts were made to draw a statement from him it was discovered that he was a veritable Sphinx. He was absolutely noncommunicative, and to this day no one but his lawyers have been able to get any information from him. The trial that is to begin to-morrow is considered to be the most Important in the history of crime in southern Indiana for the reason that there is a deeper mystery about the case than any other that has ever engaged the police department. The State will be represented by Prosecuting Attorney Edgar Durre, his deputy. Charles Wittenbraker, and Curran A. De Bruler, the latter a criminal lawyer of much reputation and ability. Sherwell's Interests will be looked after by City Attorney Albert W. Funkhouser, Arthur F. Funkhouser and E. C. Henning, three young lawyers of marked ability. Judge Hamilton A. Mattison probably will preside. A venire of fifty men has been drawn, and it Is believed that '.ittie time will be lost in selecting the Jury. There is only circumstantial evidence against Sherwell, and the State realizes that it will have a hard task to perform in proving a motive for the commission of the two murders by Sherwell. SENT TO JACKSON FOR SAFETY. Indlanians Who Had a Ficht with Officers from Arkansas. VICKSBURG. Miss., Oct. 19.-A sheriff's posse, reinforced by a Gatllng gun squad, late this afternoon effected the capture of W. G. Hull, his son, R. G. Hull, and his daughter, Mrs. Vaughn, of Arkansas. They were aboard the shanty boat Hazel, also said to be a whisky boat, from which tho shots were fired on Sheriff Frank Strong and posse, of Chicot county, Arkansas, yesterday, resulting In the wounding of the sheriff and three of his men.

Ind., and Is owned by Hull and his son. The effects of her battle with the Arkansas officers yesterday are 'shown by the numerous bullet holes in the deck and cabins. OPTIONS MOT GIVEN. John W. Gates lias No Control Over Indiana Coal Lands. Special to the Indianapolis Journal. TERRE HAUTE, Ind., Oct. 19.-The report that John W. Gates had options on all the larger coal-mining properties In Indiana Is thought to have originated In a confusion of information about two distinct coal projects one, the formation of a sales agreement between the operators in the southern Indiana district, and the other Gates's scheme to get control of the distribution of coal In Chicago. J. Smith Talley, president of the Indiana Coal Operators' Association, says he knows nothing of any such options having been given to Gates or to any one else. Said he: "I believe the rumor started because Mr. Gates is said to have joined forces with the Weaver Coal Company of Chicago. Mr. Gates has recently Invested heavily in the Weaver company, and the new company has bought coal lands In southern Illinois. The meaning of Mr. Gates's latest move, I think, is to control the coalyards in the city of Chicago." Burial of a Murderer's Vletlm. Special to th Indianapolis Journal.

Views of a Contemporary on the Obligations of Monopolies. Engineering News. "Sweet are the uses of adversity." The coal strike of 1902 may yet be worth all it costs In loss and suffering if it brings before the people of the United States the absolute necessity of facing the economic evils that now threaten our social order, and taking prompt and effective action toward their remedy. A great object lesson is being taught. It Is seen more clearly than ever before that the rights of the public are the paramount rights. The coal mine owners' right of private property and the coal mine workers' right to refrain from working must both yield to the people's right to have coal furnished them. If mine owners and mine workers refuse to supply the necessities of the public, then somewhere and somehow power must and will be found to compel them to stand aside and let others take their place who will do the work. Let it not be thought that we are pleading for radical action. Rather we plead for such conservative action as shall make radical action unnecessary. The widespread public demand for government ownership of coal mines and railways would never have arisen if government had possessed and exercised powers for the control of monopolies. It is often reiterated that society must not interfere with the right of private property or with the freedom of the workingman to work or not as he pleases. But society has a right to draw a distinction between the property of a private individual and the property of a corporation. When the entire machinery of an industry is brought under a single control that industry Is no longer private property. Its duties and obligations to the pubMc transcend Its obligations to the holders of its stock and bonds. This is, indeed, already well recognized in the case of certain monopolies. A railway company must operate its trains, for example, and perform its duties to the public, even though no profit is earned for the stockholders. So. too. with a labor mononolv. r A lnhnr organization which und'prtAkps tn control the working force of an entire industry makes itself a necessary servant of the public and assumes responsibilities which it must not be permitted to evade.

A Chance of Opinion. Philadelphia Inquirer. There are many persons living who can remember that it was a matter almost of reproach for a person to have gone to a hospital, where it was thought only th. poorest were treated and for experimental purposes. To-day every patient severely afflicted ia likely to go toouch an institu tion, where there are the best appliances and best conditions for treating disease. The hospital was formerly any old building I where paupers could be huddled, now it Is the finest and best-appointed building In

existence, with scientific arrangements to battle with disease. In no direction has there been more earnest and Intelligent endeaver than that which has been exercised in the hope of benefiting suffering humanity. KILLED HIS FIREMAN.

Andrews went back and found Schuity's body. At the post mortem to-night it was found that Schulty evidently had been struck on the right temple by some blunt Instrument. Conductor Andrews testified that the body was found on one of the girders of the bridge, at a jolnt which Schulty would not have probably touched had he fallen from the cab of the engine accidentally Coroner Mathews later received word from Belial re that blood and brain tissue had been found in the cab of the engine and at once ordered the arrest of Glancy. It is not known that enmity existed between the two men. CITY NEWS NOTES. The Missionary Society of Tabernacle Church will meet In the church parlors tomorrow afternoon at 3:30 o'clock.

In roaming through the famous China town of San Francisco, its lanes and alleys, the stroller will perhaps observe over a narrow door a mystical sign, and beneath It the words Chung-Sai-Yat-Po, the dally newspaper, and If curious he may ascend the narrow stairs and reach the editorial and other rooms of one of the several Chinese papers published In this Chinese American city. Little Canton, as it is sometimes called. This paper was first started as a weekly, but was finally changed to a dally, and Is now an influential organ of what might be termed the Americanised Chinese, or the New Chinaman, as the editor Is a Chinese minister of the Presbyterian Church, a man of high cultivation from the American standpoint. He is Rev. Ng Poon Chew. The typesetters, the clerks, in fact all the employes are Chinamen, some of whom are graduates of American schools. In the business office and editorial room there is little to attract the attention. American desks and chairs and telephone are the appliances of the workers; but when the visitor enters the composing room, a high, cheerless brick-wall-inclosed room, he is confronted with the fact that there as well as elsewhere in China things are upside down. In a word, the typesetter ia quite as important a factor as the editor. The American typesetter is obliged to be familiar with twenty-six letters, ten figures) and a few signs and symbols, as periods, dollar marks, etc.. but the Chinese compositor must be familiar with 11,000 characters of this archaic language. Certain sounds often stand for several hundrsd words, the difference, often vital to an Intelligent presentation of an idea, depending on certain diacritical marks accompanying each word There are thousands of these symbols which are engraved, each one representing a type, but a wellregulated newspaper will require but 11,000 characters; if others are needed they are made in the office. A font of type In the Chinese language requires 11.000 spaces, and in the large and spacious racks here shown each word instead of each letter, as In English, has a place for itself. There Is also a peculiar grouping or classification of symbols Into groups to further facilitate the mental labors of the typesetters. The compositor Is a staid and dignified individual, and as he slowly walks from symbol to symbol, picking up those which he requires with provoking calmness, the American compositor might well worider when the work would be completed: and to set up the limited type required for a small four-page daily paper the constant labors of eight ornlne skilled Chinamen are required for twelve or thirteen hours, the entire work In every department being the antipodes of the rush and whirl and marvelous celerity of the modern American publication. When the paper Is set up It is printed on an American press, but the type is all made in China. There are three other newspapers published in San Francisco besides the one describedthe Chinese World, the Oriental News and the Commercial News. Nearly all have some special object in view. Thus the World is a reform paper, virtually the organ of the Emj4re Reform Association, a club or society which is very Influential In Chinese circles in San Francisco and said to include a fourth of the entire population. The World opposed the Boxers, is pro-American In Its Ideas. Native journalism in China is still in its Infancy, so far as perfection of appliances is concerned, yet the Peking Oazette is the oldest newspaper known, having begun publication nearly 1.000 years ago; so long In the past that the "original copy" has disappeared, but the many modem newspapers published in the great cities of China suggeft that the beginning of a new era has dawned. A Result of the Strike. Philadelphia Telegraph. Anarchists and Nihilists and destruction ists generally have taken advantage of the coal strike to disseminate their malefic aOO trines mrmfm Um ssiners standing .it..ut J with their hands In their pockets, not knowing wnat to ao wnn memseive in t ht ir unaccustomed leisure, the miners out of work have been easily attracted by any one bringing them any sort of message concerning matters in which they are Interested. The radical Socialist .and professional reformer is always a talker, the propensity to hold forth at length being oftentimes Mf whole stock In trade, and the miners, with nothing to do. have offered an audience which the rabid pouter would journey around the world 'to rea h. The ureaching of the doctrine of dlseonI tent, of envy, malice and all uncharttableness Das unquestionably procucru an injurious effect In the mining districts, and Its malign Influence will be felt long after the Immediate harm done by the strike has been remedied. One effect is already noticeable in the establishment of stations throughout the coal region for the distribution of per:, literature. In Europe the red reactionists have an active and suecgettc :r,-i'Mgaiida. with a press bureau fully organized and equipped for the production and distribution of incendiary literature, and since the strike has been in progress this propaganda has kept Its agents diligently at work among the lab r unions. The Inflammatory publications of the anarchistic missions have been put in active circulation, inciting the strikers to rebellion and bloodshed. That sort of thing Is dangerous, and It will be the height ut folly to permit its continuance. The repti'e agents of anarchy who crawl about srqeang the mining communities, leaving a slimy trail of treason behind them, should ha apprehended and put where they can do a harm, r.nd that without delay.
