July 4, 1895. THE WEALTH MAKERS. 1 HUE SF REVIEW OF THE OPERATIONS OF THE FISCAL YEAR JUST CLOSED, THE DEFICIT IS $43,250,000 I excess of Expenditure Over Receipt Since Jane 80, 1893, 8113,250,000 Available Cash Balance on Hand 8195,000,000 Receipts for the Tear Greater and Ex penditures Less, Washington, July 2. The treasury, deficit tor the fiscal year just closed is found by to-day's debt statement to be approximately $43,350,000. This added to last year's deficit of neaaly $70,000, 000 makes the excess of expenditures 'ever receipts since June 30, 1S93, about r $113,250,000. The total receipts of the government this fiscal year, exclusive of postal revenues, amount to nearly $313,000,000, and the expenditures to $356,350,000, of which pensions took $141,391,523. Last year the aggregate receipts, exclusive of postal revenues, were 8297,722,019, and the expendi tures 8267,525,279. The receipts this year, therefore, were 815,278,000 great er than last and the expenditures about $11,275,000 less. The postal service - deficit is about $11,000,000, which is considerably in excess of that of any recent year. The internal revenue department of the government has contributed this .year to the receipts nearly $143,000,000, as against a little more than $147,000. O00 last year. The customs this year makes a better showing than last by about $21,000,000. Last year the re ceipts from this source amounted to nearly $132,000,000 and this year they approximate $1:3,000,000. Of this amount sugar contributed about $17, 350,000. The debt statement shows an avail able cash balance of about $195,000,000, -of which about $107,500,000 is gold re serve. This reserve includes payment in full for the last bond issue, but the statement shows a counter debt charge of only $31,157,700 in bonds, or one f half of the whole amount issued. jf In explanation of this seeming error, it is said the formal transfer of the T.nnrinn Vinlf nf tii bonds has not vet V been made. The expenditures for July will be exceptionally heavy. Pensions , ad interest alone are expected to amount to $20,000,000 During the fiscal year the number of national banks in existence , has de creased from 3,775 to 2,722. Forty-one national banks have been organized during the year; sixty have gone into voluntary liquidation, and thirty-six have been placed in the hands of receivers. The national bank circulation has increased $4,337,791, from $207,353,244 on July 1, 1894, to $211,691,035 July 1, 1895. From July 18, 1894, to May 7, 1895, the nearest dates to the year ob tainable, the loans and discounts of national banks have increased, from $1,933,589,352 to $1,970,604,445, or about 843,000,000. During the same time in dividual deposits have increased from $1,667,801,200 to $1,690,961,299 or about $13,000,000. The lawful money reserve held by banks shows a heavy increase from $364,105,757 to $428,931,970, or nearly $75,000,000. WANT SHAW'S GARDEN. Suits to Recover Property Valued at Mil lions in St. Louis. St. Louis, Mo., July 2. Suits to re cover property valued at several mil lion dollars, including probably two thirds of the ground now occupied by Shaw's botanical garden, eight sec tions of land lying along Stringtown road,' between it and South Side park and extending through Tower Grove park, in St. Louis, and twelve sections of land, comprising nearly one-half of Franklin county, will soon be filed in the) circuit court of this city. The prospective litigants are the nine heirs oirold Louis Denov. one of the pioneer ""settlers of the Mississippi valley. I MThey claim to have a clear title to the Iff property through old Spanish and 1' i. 1. 4.-. t .jj::.. 1, l they claim to have leases to several city blocks on which mills, lactone; and residences have been built. Pleading for Bolln. Omaha, Neb., July 2. There is much discussion in Omaha as to whether or not defaulting Treasurer Henry Bolln shall be prosecuted. The record shows that at least $25,000 of city funds were missing when Bolln was deposed. As this was made good by bondsmen and the city lost nothing, some were for letting Bolln escape further punish ment. Acting City Attorney Cornish has created a sensation by writing a letter to the mayor advising him not to further prosecute Bolln. No steps have yet been taken to arrest Bolln. If one warrant is ivsued, many others must be, for many politicians are guilty of participation in the deaL Mrs. Stanford Wins. San Francisco, July 2. The suit of the United States government against Mrs. Leland Stanford and the Stanford estate for $15,000,000, was virtually de cided against the government and it is is the general understanding that the Stanford millions are safe and that Stanford university will no longer be hlj danger of being closed for lack of f4nds. The decision was rendered by liSfted States circuit J udge Ross sus taining the demurrer of Mrs. Stanford. The suit was to recover the millions on account of Central Pacific railroad debts. Gasoline Kills Three People. Chicago, July 2. A gasoline stove xploded in the home of Christopher Brown, l34lltVellington avenue, caus ing the death of Miss Agnes Brown, aged 20, and the fatal injuring of her TIN MINING. The Industry In the United States Not Frofltable An Expert's Opinion. Washington, July 2. In an extend ed report on the subject of the occur rence and production of tin through out the world, C. M. Rolker, a special agent of the geological survey, dis cusses the tin situation in the United States, saying: "No tin is being pro duced in the United States and the tin occurrences of this country are so far only of geological or mineralogi cal interest, with indications of pros pective values in a few instances. Tin occurs at Winslow, Me., in the form of cassiterite. It was noticed as early as 1869 and was worked to a depth of 100 feet before being aban doned. Similar ore occurs in New Hampshire. A few crystals have been found in Massachusetts and Connecti cut The Martha Cash tin mines, situ ated on the western slope of the Blue Ridge in Virginia, are promising in appearance and have been well opened up, but the property is in litigation and will not produce until these diffi culties are settled. Tin was discov ered in 1886 near King's Mountain, North Carolina. It occurs in the de composed greison and pyrite in slates, and offers as legitimate a field for tin prospecting as do the Black Hills in Dakota. In Alabama the tin occurs in grains through disseminated gneiss ledges. Mines have been" worked in Clay county, but have not paid f o far. A few crystals of cassiter ite have been found in Texas, but the country is practically unexplored. A tin discovery is reported from Colorado, but little is thought of it. Float or stream tin has been found in small quantities in Idaho and Montana. Efforts at mining tin have been made in Wyoming, but have resulted un favorably. The value of the Harvey's Peak and other Black Hills mines in South Dakota has not yet been demon strated. They have not been accurate ly tested as yet, and their management has met with many checks. They are now in the hands of a receiver. A little tin has been found in Northern California, but the mines in San Ber nardino county in the South are the only ones of value. Prior to 1892, 291,134 pounds of metallic tin were est tracted from these. No work is n&vf being done." LEO'S WILL HIS LAW. Archbishop Kenrick Makes No Objection to His Removal by Rome. St. Louis, Ma, July 2. It became known to-day tnat Archbishop Kain notified Archbishop Kenrick last Wed nesday that he was to be succeeded by the former and translated to another diocese. The news seemed to cause Arch bishop Kenrick no surprise and when the reading was concluded, he said: "This is a very proper step. I shall place no obstacles in your way, but shall, without delay, make out deeds transferring to you the church prop erty which I now hold." ,. This was a great relief to Arch bishop Kain, who was doubtful how his aged predecessor would receive the news. Sunday Saloon Closing; in Kansas City. Kansas City, Mo., July 2. The or der requiring saloons to close on Sun day, made through Chief of Police Erwin by Police Commissioners Shelley and Fyke, was not unanimously obeyed yesterday. While strangers and ex cursionists ranted around in a thirsty and angry mood, those who knew the ropes did not go unslaked or unfilled. The results of the initial day of Sun day closing were that several saloon men braved the mandate; three arrests were made and seven are on the chiefs little list; 1 he drug stores turned a pretty penny; Frank Jones' place was robbed; the disreputable houses sold oceans of beer at $1 a bottle; the Kan sas City, Kan., jointists did the busi ness of their lives; several hundred sore saloon men and a stiff clash of authority between Police Judge Jone and Chief of Police Irwin. A Murderer Ejected as a Tramp. Fort Scott, Kan., July, 2. Henry Wright, the negro who murdered his wife with an ax at Nevada, Mo., Saturday, slept in the packing house of the Hart Pioneer nurseries six miles south of here yesterday and was ejected as a tramp by the workmen. City Marshal Atkinson and Deputy Sheriff Ewing, of Nevada, with the Fort Scott officers and a posse ol citizens left last night in search of him, but have been unable to find him. They are certain he is in hiding in the neighborhood and a posse is still scour ing the country. Militiamen In St. Louis. St. Louis, Mo., July 2. The inter state drill and encampment under the auspices of the fair association, opened to-day with crack military companies present from all parts of the country. The greater part of the day was spent by the militiamen in getting settled, but by 2 o'clock every company took part in the parade through the busi ness part of the town. Governor Stone and others reviewed it from the Plant ers' hotel balcony. New Southern Industries. Chattanooga, Tenn., July 2 The Tradesman has issued its quarterly re port of new industries established or incorporated in the Southern states fjr the quarter ending June 30. The total number reported is 664, as against 638 for the second quarter oi 1894, 654 for the same peried in 1893 and 779 for 1892, showing that the in dustrial development of the South is being well maintained. Professor Canfleld's New Place. Columbus, Ohio, July 2 Professor James H. Canfleld was to-day installed as president of the Ohio state univers ity at Columbus. He came from the university of Nebraska and prior to that service had been with the uni versity of Kansas. He is a graduate of Williams college and a native 0 New England. Two Western Military Cadets Dropped. West Tqint, July 2. Easton R. Gib son of Missouri and Charles Doster of Kansas were among the cadets found deficient in their studies and ordered dismissed from the military Academy. POINTS FOR THE PEOPLE. Reason will convert people, but abuse never wilL Some of our reform writers should keep this fact in mind. Do not lose your wits in the silver boom. Other issues of vast importance need your consideration, also. Inde pendent The democrats must disabuse their minds of the idea that populists will ever march to the ballot box under the banner of the' democratic party. This can never be. Marshall (Mo.) People's Record. The silver democrats at their meet ing in Fort Worth recently urged the populists to help them. The silver demos will have to come to the popu lists, yet. Comanche (Tex.) Pioneer Exporient. News comes from Texas that the grand old fraudulent party, formerly known as the democratic party, has split wide open and thousands of free silverites are actually joining the cranky populists; and still the people's party Is dying. A great big able bodied populist boom is rising while an intense gloom settles over the political" horizon of the old plutocratic twins. Seven million populist votes next year is a very con servative estimate of party strength. Chicago Express. Free silver democrats should come into the ranks of the populists, the only true, genuine, free coinage party. They will never get anything out of the democratic party,' as the action of the last congress fully demonstrates. Reynolds (Ga.) Banner-Watchman. Now when Gen. Weaver engages in the Iowa campaign with his well known ability and old time energy and vigor; it will put an end to all insinua tions that there is any disloyalty on his part, or abandonment of the funda mental, principles of the party. Chi cago Express. Bullion ists say they have no faith in the fiat of the government. If this and other governments should with draw their flat from gold, in less than twelve months a $20 gold piece would not exchange for a silver dollar even up. It's monetary functions is all that makes it so valuable. Iowa Farmer's Tribune. The question of public control of the banks is a coming issue. It can't be kept down. The legislature of every state will be asked to require banks to give security for deposits. This will be a temporary relief until such time as the government provides a safe banking system, and it is some thing that can be secured without awaiting the tedious action of con gress. Chicago Express. -- The democratic party will be un able to go before the country in 1896 as a 16 to 1 party, for all its leaders, great newspapers and capitalists are pledged against it If the silver ele ment undertakes to adhere to the name "democratic party" only '"con fusion confounded" will be the result among the voters; thus thrusting vic tory upon single standard democrats. Marshall (Mo.) People's Record. The report of the chief gold mine at Leadville is out and shows that each dollar's worth cost 23 cents to mine it By the government placing its stamp on the metal these mine owners rake in 77 cents on every dollar. "You can't legislate money into men's pockets," you know. The income tax decision prevents legislating the money out of the pockets of those few who had it legislated into their pockets. The peo ple should sow some legislation if they expect to reap. People's Party Post The Ohio prohibition state conven tion adopted a financial plank as fol lows: "The money of the country should be of full legal tender, Issued directly to the people on ample secur ity in such quantities as the people may demand and to all at a uniform rate of interest To this end the government should establish real national banks as it does post offices, wherever the con venience of the people demands. Until such a financial system can be estab lished we favor free and unlimited coinage of silver and gold at a ratio of 16 to 1 as temporary relief." The republican and democratic na tional platforms will again be the same old straddle that will mean the "gold standard" in the east and "free silver" in the west and south. The managers of these old parties will send out hun dreds of hired orators, some of whom will be found talking free silver and others the gold standard; flood the country with literature that will mean free silver In the west and south and gold standard in the east They did this in the last national campaign and they will do so again. That Ohio plat form of the republican party is a fair indication of this fact Paola (Kan.) Times. What Does This Mean? Every once in a while one runs across a paragraph like this, even in reform papers: "It is evident, however, that when ever the English creditor wants money and begins to disgorge American se curities, panic times are inevitable here. Such a crisis as that of 1893 is capable of reproduction at any time." What does this mean? The English creditor cannot force us to redeem these securities before they are due, can he? And he certainly cannot force people to buy, unless they want to, can he? Rats!! The solution is two conspirators, one on each side of the Atlantic ocean. Profits of a Trust. While Senator Brice is keeping a pretty close eye on Ohio politics he does not forget to make a little money as the sparks fly upward. Some months ago efforts were made to secure agree ments between the Tennessee Coal Iron Co. and some of its rivals in the trade, and, an understanding being reached, the tip was given to certain insiders that the stock was going up, to 40. Inasmuch as it stood them at 9," there was plenty of leeway for profits. Recently the stock touched 39. Sena tor Brice was In the deal, and it la said his wlnuings were as high as $500, A MARTYR -TO INDIGESTION Cured by taint; Ayer's Sarsaparilla Words of Comfort to All who Suffer Iron Dyspepsia.

Politicians in the Old Parties Have No In tentlon of Leaving- Their Party for Sil ver's Sake. There have been a small number of populists who, since this silver move ment started, wanted our party to drop its "isms" and go in with the silver men on that issue alone. Such popu lists might learn a lesson from the re' publican and democratic silver men who recently met at Memphis. . The proposition of Mr. Sibley and his friends that silver men of all parties should forsake their former party af filiations and unite upon the silver question in a great silver party was re jected by the democratic and repub lican delegates. They said their re spective parties had other issues to fight for that they could not abandon for this question alone, and they would make their fight in their respective parties. . Now, if this is a consistent position for republicans and democrats, it is much more consistent for populists. Besides, if they are going to make their fight in their respective parties where do our populist friends propose to go in order to make silver the only issue, or even the leading issue next year? Is it not about time to stop this nonsense about silver as a single issue, and push forward our whole line of battle as already formed? There are those who say we must fight where we find an enemy, and that plutocracy has determined that free silver alone shall be the great is sue of the next campaign. In this they are simply mistaken. There is no proposition in our platform that plutocracy so much fears as the pub lic ownership of public utilities, the abolition of land monopoly and the establishment of government banks; and upon no other line will we find the enemy stronger intrenched. We can not draw in our lines if we would. The fight is on and it must proceed to a finish. A contraction of our lines would be an abandonment of the field and the surrender of advantages that it would require years to regain. To peka (Kan.) Advocate. AX VS. REVOLVER. fwo Missouri Women Meet, With Fatal Effect on One. Aurora, Mo., June 26. Mrs. John Henson, who resides at the zinc mines, got an idea into her head that Mrs. John Walliver, a widow, was after the affections of her husband. Immediate ly she got an ax, and proceeded to Mrs. Walliver's to make mince meat of her. The house was locked and Mrs. Henson began chopping in the window. Mrs. Walliver, who was inside, then got a 44-caliber navy revolver and fired twice. The first shot cut the handle of Mrs. Benson's ax, and the next hit that lady in the lip, ranged across and shattered the right cheekbone, and lodged in the back of the neck. Mrs. Henson cannot live. Mrs. Walliver gave herself up. Cheap Kates 4th of July. To points within 200 miles the Bur itigton will sell round trip tickets July 3d and 4th good to return July 5th at rate of fare and one-third.

But is the Baltimore plan a reform? It gives the associated banks the power to expand the currency and relieve the country. It also gives them the power to contract it at will and create universal distress for their own private gain. It puts the credit of the government behind every bank note. It donates all but half of one per cent of the profit on the note issue to the banks, and it leaves plenty of opportunities for a Napoleon of Finance to wreck a bank and leave the government to pay the notes. It leaves the banks free to demand the highest interest that the several states will allow, and affords no relief to farmers and business men of moderate capital. Contrast with this The. Hill Banking System. In "Money Found," an exceedingly valuable and instructive book published by Charles H. Kerr & Company of Chicago, and for sale at the office of this paper at 25 cents, Hon. Thos. E. Hill proposes that the government open its own bank in every large town or county seat in the United States, pay 3 per cent on long time deposits, receive deposits subject to check without interest, and loan money at the -uniform rate of 4 per cent to every one offering security worth double the amount of the loan. This plan is not an expense to the government, but a source of large revenue. It secures the government amply, which the Baltimore plan does not. . ' It relieves the distress of the common people, which the Bal timore plan does not. It protects not only note-holders but depositors, who are un secured now and under the Baltimore plan would be still worse off. In a word, the Baltimore plan is in the interest of the bankers, the Hill Banking System is in the interest of the people.
