FKtDAY. DECEMBER 28, 1894.
If Mr. Cleveland lmd wanted to go
gunning for lnme ducks, his trip to the
South would have been unnecessary. His
own party bus bsen full ot the crippled
fowl ever since the November election.
Anotiibu unsuccessful attempt to re
store Qtucn Ijlliuokulaul to the throne of
Hawaii bus been made. Its collapse,
however, seems to have b-en of so lgno
minions a character, and tn have excited
such universal derision, that It may coil'
fldently be expected there will henceforth
bo an cud to all royalist conspiracies. Tho
natives no longer appear to show any in
terest in the fate of their former sovereign,
and are perfectly coitent with the en
lightened rule of the present government.
Under the circumstances, the English ad'
venturers who have been the prime mov-
era in all the royalist plots that have
taken place are now unable to Bnd any of
the islanders willing to follow their lead.
Ahono other suortcomiuns, the presen!
Administration Is chargeable with (dip
plying postage stamps that are a source
of great annoyance and inconvenience,
One ot the prime virtues In a stamp is
that it shall stick. Beauty In a stamp is
of secondary importance compared Altli
this The stump that does not stick is a
stump that falls of lis manifest destiny.
Nut only Is the mucilage on theBtimp
at piesftit furnished from .Vushlugtou
scanty anil inadequate, but the colors on
their I.icj are s.i ponrly laid on that they
"inn" ou the slightest provoculou. It is
not I be I'jstolllce Depirtment but the
Trertnny Department which is really ro
sponsible for the bail quality of the. stamps
and tli us another sin must be laid at the
do. ir nf Secretary Carlisle. An Admiuis
trillion which is unnmil to the task o
supplying potiic stamps capable of per
forming thulr full duty cannot expect to
be v n'il.i.oned high on the scroll of his
tory.
Tiik closing months of 1894 h ive beea
marked in Europe by such an awakening
of revolutionary activities as had not
teen seen before for m iny a yetr. In al
most every country there has been open
and sometimes violent demonstration
agniusl the existing order, and to day the
commanders of the great annul camps
are f ir more concerned with suppressing
or preventing domestic revolt than with
Guarding against foreign nttacks. Local
causes and conditions are probably in
part responsible for this state of affairs
but there Is also reason to believe that
more general forces are at work, and that
this remarkable concert of action Is the
resit It ot deliberate Socialist tc prearrange
ment rather than ot chance. What will
come ot It all, it would be vain
prophesy. That all Europe, or that any
one important state, will be perverted to
Soul illsm is not to be expected. Thnt th
agitati m ot social topics, even thougl:
dtartoj by theeuemtesof social order, will
result in some good, Is entirely prob
able. There is much room for improve
ment In the social condition ot even the
best state in the world, lint what is to
bo most feared is that this Soclallsllo
madness will provoke reaction, and will
drive the true liberals In every country
Into the ranks of the ultraconservative
and repressive parties. This has actually
occurred lu Belgium, where the party of
moderation and progress has vanished,
ami there are uow only Clericals ami
Socialists. It would be an uuapeakable
misfortune should it occur generally
throughout Europe. Yet nothing is more
certain to cause such a reiictlou than the
uutui.onlng clamor and menace of those
who r j "expecting all things in un
hour."
IT is alitor nouteuso to urgue that thu i
Douiocrallj curreuoy bill ought to bo put j
through beciUde thu Treasury U la i

Increase them greatly. Uhls Is ouvloub that he gius to Japan purely lu u prlvatu
when It Is considered that tho new bill, capacity as un adviser of the Chlneso plon
whU. It does not formally reau.ru na- 'SSS'S
tlonal banks to change their basis of clr ( United States. . , ,
ulation, does exposo them to audi unfair
nd destructive competition by state
banks that they would be most power
fully Influenced to abandon the national
system, sell their bonds nnd organize
udcr the new bill as state banks. This
would leave them free to continue the cir
culation ot notes of less than 110 each,
while as national banks this most profit
able part of their circulation would be
withdrawn. The change would save them
from two taxes amounting to one per
cent on their entlro circulation, which
state banks would not have to pay. It
would offer the chance by convenient
arrangements with state officials to get
back Into their own keeping as state
deposits at least a part ot the guarantee
fund of 30 per cent, ot their circulation
which the state banks are permitted to
place with a state official, who can then
keep the fund as he does other funds
wherever he thinks safest pud best, while
the national banks have to place their
funds with the Treasury. These are but
part ot the inducements which would
operate to break down the national sys
tem, and to substitute notes of forty-four
different kinds ot state Danks. One of
enormous potency is the opportunity to
loud money on real estate which in some
sections would enable the banks to In
crease their ctpltal and business almost
Indefinitely, nnd, until the crash comes,
their prollt3 also. The men engaged in
conducting national banks are not so en
tirely different from others engaged in
money lending that they would shrink
from the risks attending lonns of this
character. What restrictions state laws
may provide can only be guessed from
experience under state banking laws be
fore the war, when Democratic money
brought repeated disasters. Thirty years
under the national system have proved
that It Is eminently wise In its restric
tions and safeguards, and the disposition
to overthrow these, and to rush again
into the saturnalia of wildcat banking,
Is not one which any sober business man
should encourage.

Mr. Goff also Introduced tho Inspoctor to
the knowledge that Japanese law would
not have allowed him to own real estate in
Hakodate at the timo ho claimed In Ms
testimony on Wednesday that ho owned
property thoro.
At tho conclusion of Inspector Williams'
examination Louis S. Strocp, a green
goods oporator, was called. Tills witnoss
created a sensation by tolling a story In
volving Anthony Comstock.
"On May 83, 1889," said Strocp, "two in
dictments wuro found against mo for op-
rating In green goods. Anthony Coin-
stock was tho prosecutor. Comstock told
mo that if I would give up thonamo of my
accomplice I should got off with a light
punishment. I rufused to do so. Kdward
lSechtel called and gavo my wifo S.i.OOO In
hills. Tlio bail was at that timo fo,000,
but was reduced shortly after to $3,000. In
August, 18U0, 1 culled on Comstock with
my brother, who told mo that tho state
indictment vould bo dismissed on pay
ment of $1,000. Comstook said: 'Mind,
tho 51,000 Is not in thu sliapo of a bribe. It
Is a subscription to tlio society.' "
'I asked him whether if I paid him tho
money I might not bo brought up at all.
On Comstock's promlso I paid mm $1,000.
On tho following Friday tho indictment
was dismissed."
Mr. "Jolt produced tho indictments
which lioro an indorsement bearing date
Sept. iO, 181)1, that tho district attorney
having moved that for reasons affecting
the administration of laws tlio indictment
was dismissed.
"Conibtock subsequently callod on ino
nnd asked mo to swear that Ucchtol was
an accompli of mluo. I refused, und ho
threatened to bring mo before tho United
States court. I asked him for timo to con
aider the matter. Iiechtel was arrested on
thu charge of stealing $100 from the Amer-
can Kxpress company. Ho was brought
leforo Commissioner Shields. Negotia
tions wore carried on with him by Com
btook, and ho paid Comstock $1,000. Tho
following day ho was discharged. United
States IMstrlot Attorney John A. Mott
alsogot$l,000.
'I was then arrostcd, and employed
Lawyer Hess. 1 told nil about Comstock
to Commissioner Shields. Comstock was
asked to tell what happened in his olllco,
but declined to do so. I was held for trial,
und was convicted on tho charge of Issuing
green goods circulars last Juno, My caso
lias boon appealed.
Hobort ntreep, brother of Louis, cor
roborated tho foregoing testimony.
Mr. (ioir said that tho commltteo, while
Inquiring into the abuses of tho pollco de
partment, hud u perfect right to inquire
into the administration of tlio law so fur
us tho statu was concerned, and that was
tlio reason ho had submitted this evidence,
It hud been shown that green goods oper
ators could escape punishment by bribing
Mr, Comstock, tho agent for tho booicty
for tho Suppression of Vice.
It is understood tnnt the commltteo will
not sit after today, so that a great doal of
work will havo to bo crowdod into tlio day,
and a night session may bo held. Super
intendent Byrnes, Inspectors MoLaughlin
and MoAvoy, and several captains havo
yet to Ik) examined, so that today s session
may be ono of tho most Important of this
committee.
Anthony Comstock said today: "Streep's
testimony is rank and Infamous perjury.
Streep never directly or Indirectly gavo mo
value, not oven a postage stamp, and
nover lu all ot ills trials, ovonas a witness.
was it Intimated that ho gavo me a penny.
By the wuy, iu speaking of Golf, I'd like
to know why it was that when ho was nn
assistant district attorney Olin I). Gray
was not prosecuted. I found in this man
Gray's possession a million und a half
dollars worth of Louisiana lottery tick
ets. Onthewhnlo it is a most Infamous
plot to traduce my character."
