A Washington dispatch says : The
nummary of tho Bureau of Statistics
fihotvs ft falling off of impoitB of dutia
ble goodu for tho mouths of February,
March nnd April, 1891, as compared
with the 8auio months in 1893, nf moro
than CO por cent. During tho mouth
of April, 1894, tho decroaso nmouutoll
to nearly 350,000,000. Under tho
presunt tariff law tlio amount Inch thu
Government dorirec frobi lhics is 42
pur cent, of the value of tho dutinblo
goods. Therefore, during tho mouth
of April, 1891, tho lots of revenue, lis
compared to April, 1893, wus over 20,
000.000. Iho decrrmao iu birod in
all articles upon whioli tho bill now be
fore CongrcBS proposes to reduce tho
duty.
On the other hand tho iucreaso of im
portation of goods Oh which Ihero is
now no duty, or on which tho pre&eut
tiuty is leas than the Wilbou bill pro
poses, IB vory large. 'Iho lncreaso of
sugar impottiitious ulone was 100,000,
000 pounds. Sugar lion being free of
duty, is being imported IB largo quuu
titiws in auticipatinn of the. proposed
duty of lo per pouud. This (.should
tho outy bo impobtd) menus u gain to
tho Sugar Trust of l,125,pop on sugar
thut they have ulrcudy been able to
bnug in, and tho importation is going
on as fast as steamers can convey it to
our shores. Thu deduction to bomadu
is, if tho bill now before tho Scnulo
can bo dohri ed u mouth or sis necks,
it means millions of prollt to tho Sugar
Trust
The presont extraordinary importa
tion of sugar and other urtiolcs uiudo iu
order to escape tho pujment of higher
dutiua, to be impend laUr, means a
loss to tho Government in future rev
enue. Tho Treasury l)Vparraout will
full short of its estimates, sinco, among
other reasons, lung ugitn'iou in legard
to tho tariff bill v.aa never talun into
consideration. Tho official figures of
tho Bureau of Statistics demonstrate
that tho Seuuto is costing tho Got em
inent SI, 000,000 n duy. Tho loss to
the people generally through tho mer
cantile manipulation consequent to tho
present state of afiuirfi is moulonlable.

Ati English peer wlio is mnUing his
fiibt visit to tho United States wus
Hiked nt tho Country club, tho othor
day, what peculiar characteristic of the
American people impressed him raosl
forcibly. Without tho slightest hesi
tation ho repliod : "Thoir loo of

"1 always fnncied," ho said, "that
joti were till Democrats and Boiiubh

that sort of thing ; but I'll bo blessed

,, 'OniuB Contrary," w-as ho reply,
"yon will find tho colonols nnd judges
find generals getting thicker and thick

Enory Storrs witch ho first came to
Washington said to General Grunt ; "I
have found hero men culled general
who nuter 'Unsheathed a suortl or wore

Ho" .. J. Balfour, in an address
bofoio tho laty bi-mctallic conference
at Loudon, said : ''Thoro was a pe
riod not so vory iohg ngo, when uny
man who had tho courage or, as it
was then formed, tho audacity to ex
press an opinion in favor of tho double
standard was supposed to bo guilty of
some economic horosy, which if we
still scut peoplo to tho stake for heresy
would diBorve tho utmost rigor which
cither tho secular or ucclcsiutical laws
might impusO. 1 think that thoso duj s
have long gone by. The general con
sensus of soiuutiilo economic opinion
has now for ninny years been thrown
with an ovoi whelming balance of opin
ion into tho scale of the double stand
ard, I am not offering now uu opiu
ion aft tip whether tho, itoUblo standard
fa just or is oxpudieut I am only dis
cussing whether it is poss.blp ; aud I
bay that ou that question there is prac
tically now a consensus of tho wholo
economic bciutitifio opinion which has
deToted Itself to tho oluoidation of this
problum, and any man who in the face
of that opinion uow quotoa any of tho
old tugs about demaud and supply mak
ing it impobsible to fix a ratio between
the two metals, or such doctrines as
tliut the luteifuronce of tho state to fix
prices must uecesbatily fail any man
who now relies on nrgumonVs of ihat
Kind to show that tho doublo staudnrd
is an impobsible expedient does noth
ing else than write him6elf down an iu
dividual ignorant of tho latest scioucifio
developments of political economy.
Of course, the pcrcolatiou of scientific
opinion through the goneral body of
the community is slow iu this caso as
it is slow iu every other case, but as in
Jevry other caso you mny bo quite cer
tain thut what scientific and detached
or disinterested speculation decides to
bo tiuo will ultimately como to bo tho
couvicttou of the greut mats of the
educated population of ho country, so
j ou may bo suro that in this caso many
years will not elapse before a man who
should say that n doublo standard is
beyond tho power of international
ngreeuicnt will show himself to bo ou
Urely ouleido tho go lie nil balauoo and

A Chlcag-o Policeman Discovers a "What Is
It" From the World' Talr In a Scwcr.
While at work In a connection of the
city scwcr nt Woodhtwn pblico station
City Polico Plumber PjtMcGoveru cap
tured a queer animal which ia not alto
gether beast or fish. It is 9 inches long,
has a head like on alligator, with short
feet and a flshhko tail.
McGovcrn thinks it is ono of tho
World's fair aquatic exhibits which es
caped from tho Fisheries building last
Summer when a section of gla&s was ac
cidentally broken. It was put on exhibi
tion iu n bucket of water at tho polico
station, whero scores of persons went to
bed it The "what is it" wriggled
around in tho bucket all day, to tho
great doftght of McGovcrn and Lieuten
ant Larkiu.
McGovctii was at work in tho sewsr
under tho station when ho saw some
thing that looked hko a fish drop out of
tho pipe and fall at his feet. Ho is not
a drinking man, and ho says it is a good
thing hois aletemious in his habits. At
first ho was frightened at tho hideous
looking object, but it was only for a mo
ment. He held his light closo down to
tho btranstt auimal and saw that it had
feet It was of a. rrreenish color, and '
McGovern's first impression was that it
was 6omo species of reptile.
Ho clambered out of tho nolo and
went to Lieutenant Larkin's offico to
tell him of his find.
"Oh, I see," said tho lieutenant,
"you'vo been drinking again. Tho next
thing you'll bo finding wbito elephants
la tho sewer."

A Prussian uanied Lautzhas invented

government to iloclnw its mwiutncture
illegal, and a putcr.t haj Leon rofuised.
It it compoA-d of parchment, glue, as

"It's a good while now sinc9 xve

tective, "and there1 very fw that wo
toko around Cherry hill and its alloys.
It's too tough for ladies and for most
men. Ono of the last pcrfaaethat I took
through there was three young men who
were going to do missionary work. They
wcro ministers, and they wanted to fceo
what life was like where it's least worth
living, so I took thetu Sown to Doublo
alley. That'sa 12 foot widesfaeetabout
200 feet long and hedged in by eight
story tenements. It mas off Cherry
street, and it fnnimhes more crimo and
violonoe to the square inch than any
other place in New York, with tho pos
siblo exception of Singlo alloj, which fa
near by.
"Of course wo attracted ai&ntioi
there. Tho urchin yelled atus, thelolTj
era scowled at us, and unkempt hags
stuok their heads out of windows ovcrr
head nnd made unpleasant comments.
Wp paid no attention. One can't afford,
to bo squeamish in Doublo alley. The,
young minister?, however, began to look
rather uncomfortable', and I reckoned
they were getting beared and wished,
they'd staid at home. That wasn't
thoir kind, though. Bs I found out pretty'
quickly. YvTien w got pretty near toyfho
end of the place, we hooxd a. "terrific
howling and v elling in one of tho faousos.
Thero wcro cries of 'Murder!' and 'Help!'
mingled with curves and Rroans. It was
a characteristie Cherry Hill mixed nlo
row from nil indication In a minuto
put staggered a drunken womafj, her
f orchcad bleeding profusely from d gash
made by somo sharp instrument. Closo
after her eamo a big, burly longshore?
man brandishing a bottle. Ho rcacld.
tho woman aud brought tho bottle down
on her bead with terrific force, stretch
ing her to the pnvomeut TJioaUe began
kicking her. I started for him, bib ono
of the young men was before mo. Ho
hit tho longshoreman just once, and that
was enough. Tho man went down like
a log.

Half a dozen bignifllans poured out of
