LOW WAGES,HIGH PRICES Great Concentration of Wealth, the Small Producer Merely Existing, A CONDITION TO BEWARE OF. “The Difference Between Gold and Silver 'Values Constantly Widzning. Judge Charles T. Manning, formerly a business man of Washington, now at the head of a big coffee-growing svndicate of Nicaragua, is stopping at the Palace. Judge Manning has been on a s1x months’ visit to the “‘States.” He spent a month touring through Indians, telling the people of that State some of the beauties of free silver as he saw them in operation during four years past thav he has spent in the Central American States. ‘““Centrai America,” said Judge Man- ning, “isan agricultural country. What " the planter needs other than that which he gets directly through the cultivation of the soil is imported from the United States, England or Europe. The mer- chant, in purchasing his stocks of cloth- ing, tools, implements and provisions, pays for bis goods in the money of the country from which his shipments are made. In 1888 he paid for an account of $100 United Stutes or European money $118 of the money circulating in Central America. In 1892, to settle a bill for $100 United States or European money he was obliged to pay $152 in Central American money, and on the 1st of August of this Year to pay a debt of $100 in the United States or England or Europe the merchant of Central America was obliged to pay - $232 of the money paid to him for his . goods by his customers, ““The silver coins of Peru, Chile, Colom- bia, Bolivia, Central American States and prosperous (?) Mexico circulate in Central America, $1 of any of these countries be- ing worth as much asany oneof them, because the stamps of the governments do not gdd oné particle to their value. They orth their bullion value less the cost of transportation. ..““These countries a few years ago had a circulating system consisting of gold and silver, but to-day if you find a piece of - gold bearing the stamp of any Central American Government it will be in the seeker’s collection. there now any gold in circula- tion in any country in the world where the mints of such country are open to the free and unlimited coinage of silver, no matter what the ratio. “In 1888, ag.the time when the difference between the money of Central America and the United States was only 18 per cent, the farmer sold his corn for 50 cents per bushel, beans $1 per bushel, beef steers for $14 to $16 per head, cheese for 20 cents per pound and rice for 6 cents per pound. To- day, with the moneys of the United States and Europe at 182 per cent premium over the money of his country, the Central American farmer does not receive 1 cent more per pound or bushel for any of his products than he did when there was - practically no difference between the two moneys. “The laboring man’s wages in Central and South America have always been a ance; 30 to 50 cents per day in d es wages in 1880, and there has no increase since that time. ‘While the price of the laboring man’s clothes, tools and implements have in- creased threefold, his earning power has His money is cer- tainly the cheapest in tne world, but yet he does not receive any nfore of it than he did when its purchasing power, or its in- trinsic value, was nearly two and a half times what it is to-day. Neither is it any : easier to get. His clothing that cost him *. in 1888 $1, costs him to-day for the same goods and in the same money $2 50 to $3. . - The acceptance by his Government of the "“.conditions of the silver standard does not seem to have added any great amount to his prosperity, does it? “Go into any couniry in the world where silver constitutes the chief money and you will tind the greatest concentra- tiou of wealth, the most arrogant of gov- ernments, the small farmer and producer struggling to eke out a mere existence, the Iaborer poorly paid, scantily clothed ‘and __badly fed. * “How long could any of our people live a5 do the thousands of the people of those ‘countries whose food, morning, noon and night, consists of ground cooked corn mixed with water without even salt? And yet you hear so much of prosperous Mex- ico, where these circumstances exist. The prosperous people of these countries are the large planters, the camitalist who raises a product by the aid of the poorly badly clothed ana fed laborer for rt to countries that have a sound financial system, and whose people can afford to pay him in the bestdollars in the world for his product, and for which dollar he can get more than $2 of his country’s money with which to pay his labor. Let this great country of ours be- ware how 1t invites these grinding and humiliating conditions.” -. CATHOLIC LECTURES. A Variety of Discourses on Timely Topics to Be Given in This City. .

FOLEY IS NOW ACCUSED Is Said to Have Accebted Money From Two Walnut Grove Chinese. It Is Alleg d That He Failed to Re- port Numerous Seizures of Unstamped Opium. Rumor has it that there is'about to be another great shake-up in the Custom- house. The conviction of Dick Wiiliams, now serving a six-year sentence in San Quentin for extortion, seems to have paved the way for other investigations of & simi- lar character. The all-absorbing topic of corversation is the inquiry now being conducted by Special Treasury Agent Moore against Inspector John T. Foley and oihers. Strange as it may seem, the imnformation which may be the means of getting Foley into no end of trouble came originally from Mike Cleary, who resigned from the service under presure some months ago, It seems that Cleary told Charley Favor, who is already under indictment, that he (Cleary) knew of certain crooked work that was being done by Foley. Favor re- ported the matter to the treasury agent, with the result that a rieid investigation was immediately instituted. It is now common talk in Federal circles that two Chinese of Walnut Grove have made affi- davit that Foley was paid the sum of $35 under the condition that he would not re- port a seizure of unstamped opium found in their possession. Foley, it seems, did not report the capture, but he did keep the opium, which so angered the Chinese that they readily agreed to testify against the inspector. For several weeks past Special Agent Jacksoa has been at Walnut Grove inves- tigating the affair, though he declines to discuss the matter in any way. Mejor Moore is equaily non-committal, refusing to either deny or affirm that his assistant has been so engaged. Foley, it may be remarked, has hitherto borne an excellent reputation and_regarded as a very effi- cient officer. He strenuously denies that he ever accepted a dollar from any one illegally. ———— A HOBRSE DIES FROM GRIEF. He Was Separated ¥From His Mate and Died in a Short Time. The emotioral life of a horse is remark- able. There are instances on record where the death of the horse has been traced directly to grief. One instance is called to mind which occurred more than twenty years 2go. A circus had_been performing in the little town of Unionville, Pa., when one of the trained horses sprained one of his legs so that he could not travel. He was taken to the hote! and put in a box- stall. The leg was bandaged and he was made as comfortable as possible, runs an account in the Kentucky Stogk Farm. He ate his food, and was avpazently con- tented until about midnight, when the circus began moving oat of town. Then he became restless and tramped and whined. Asthe caravan moved past the hotel he seemed to realize that he was be- 1ng deserted, ana his anxiety and distress became pitiful. He would stand with his ears pricked in an attitude of intense list- ening, and then as his ears caught the sounds of the retifing wagons he would rush, as best he could with bisinjured leg, from one side of the stall to the other, pushing at the door with his nose and making every effort to escape. The stable- man, who was a stranger to him, tried to soothe him, but to no parpose. He would not be comforted. Long_ afiter all sounds of the circus had ceased his agitation continued. Thesweat poured from him in streams and he quivered in every part of the body. Finally the stableman went to the house, woke up the proprietor and told him he believed the horse would die if some of the circus horses were not brought back to keep him company. At about daylight the proprietor mounted a horse and rode aiter the circus. He overtook it ten or twelve miles away, and the groom who had had charge of the injured horse re- turned with him. When they reached the stable the horse was dead. The stableman said that he remained for nearly an hour perfectly still and with every sense apparently strained to the utmost tension, and then, withont making a sign, fell and died with scarcely a struggle. The veterinarian who was called remarked after the circumstances were told him that unquestionably the horse died from grief. 1If it is possibie for all the mental faculties of the horse to be- come abandoned to grief to such an ex- tent as to cause death, how much more does he appeal to the sympathy and re- gard of mankind, ———————— The inhabitants of the earth number about 1,400,000,000; of these 45,000,000 die every year—about one each second. There are 3064 languages;spoken, and there are more than 1000 religions. The number of men is about equal to the number of women and the average of life is about thirty-three years. ST, ROSE OF LIMA IN COLORED GLASS Beautiful Chancel Window for Father Nugent's Church. LARGEST ON THE COAST. It Will Be Made in This City by Local Artists and ‘Workmen. FIFTEENTH CENTURY GOTHIC. Very Feaut'ful in Color and Refined in Treatment of Glass and Graceful Figures. The Rev. Father D. ¥. Nugent, pastor of St. Rose’s Church cn Brannan street, near Fourth, has made a contract for a beautiful window for the chancel of his new church. After considering sketches and various propositions from European window manufacturers, he decided to have the work done at home, feeling satisfied that local talent bad produced the most artistic conception of the window. The making of the window has already begun, and it will not be long until the grandest window in California will be erected im- mediately bebind the high altar of St. Rose's. The sanctuary window for St. Rose’s Church will be, when completed, the largest of its kind west of the Rocky Mountains, the next in size being the sanctuary window in the cathedral at Sacramento, and fcllowing this, the tran- scept windows in St Francis de Sales Church in Oakland. The building of St. Rose’s church isa beautiful and impressive example of-Gothic architecture, and the principal outlines of the window conform accurately to this style, dividing the window into one large center lan- cet seven dfeet wide and twenty-four feet high; the two side lights four feet six inches wide and twenty-two feet high. The upper portion of the window frames itself into an intricacy of lines composing the tracery, the large quarterfoil over the center lancet being seven feet in diameter, and those above the side lancets four feet six inches in diameter. This, with the necessary small angular corners, forms the tracery and becomes & pleasing finish to this grand window. The treatment of the glass is considered to be the very best example of its kind either imported to or manufactured in this country. Of this theaccompanying sketch, by Thomas C. Butterworth, is an inteili- gent illustration of the middle lancet. The rincipal figure contained in the center ancet represents an original full life-sized figure of St. Rose of Lima, the first canon- ized saint of the New World, stsnding as she does in the midst of a garden of roses, =As%) a‘\_ LR 2 A P |/ «%‘7 il Il e x _,_‘l‘le:EI" e ] A | ! Y il fi.‘{g 7 —— R0 \ AN Am RS | LN — G I Suggestive Sketch Illustrating the Center Lancet of the Beautiful St. Rose Window for the Sanctuary of St. Rose’s Church on Brannan Street. / [Drawn by a “Call” artist from the original by Thomas C. Butterworth.] with arms extended, listening to the voice of our Lord, who says, “My cross was more painfal.” St. Rose is clothed in the correct Domin- ican drapery, in which order she enrolled herself. Upon her head rests a crown of roses, placed there by her mother, and, immediately above, a halo, which sur- rounds the entire figure with a soft, mel- low light. The manner in which the golden tints of the halo blend themselves into the stronger tints of the sky and landscape are truly marvelous. Above the figure appear two ‘angels holding back the drapery which discloses to view the main figure " and foreground. In_the gospel lancet is portrayed a beautiful life-size figure of an angel in an attitude of adora- tion, and in the epistle lancet appears the Angel of Peace holding in her hand the emblem of her mission—a palm branch. The large quarterfoil above the center lancet contains a representation of the sacred heart of Jesus, surrounded in a conventional way with festoons of roses; and the two small quarterfoils above the two side lancsts contain the figures of two adoring angels in miniature. The ~ornamentation surrounding the figures and subject of the entire window is treated in the style of the fifteenth century or perpendicular of Gothic archi- tecture. The intricate detail of the work done in this period, showing in its con- struction the innumerable number of pin- nacles, cusps and .niches, reflects great credit on the artist and conveys to the mind of the observer his thorough famil- iarty with the subject under treatment. The general color scheme of the entire window is very rich, but the manner in which the deep shades of ruby and blue blend and adapt themselves with the softer tones of the draperies and the evening twilight 1mpresses one with the fact that talent at home should not only receive consideration, but is in every way qualified to execute works of this kind far more satisfactory and better suited to the artistic taste and fancy of Californians than others less familiar with the sur- xéoundings and requirements of the Pacific oast. Minetti-Bacon Concert. There was & good attendance at the first en- semble concert given yesterday afternoon at the Association Auditorium by Miss Alice Bacon and Giulio Minetti.

INCENSED AT BRODERICK City Hall Employes Are Sharp- ening Their Knives for Him. The County Clerk and Sheriff May Sus Out a Writ of Man- damus. Auditor Broderick’s intimation that he may refuse to audit the salary warrants of the deputies in the Sheriff’s and County Clerk’s offices, becanse he believes that under the recent decision of the Supreme Court these officials must pay their help out of their own salaries, has created no little excitement in the City Hall, and the quiet tip comes from many quarters that Mr. Broderick has put his political “foot in 1t,” in addition to driving numerous nails in his political coffin, To those who are familiar with the workings of these two important offices and realize the disastrous consequences that would follow should any court sus- tain the Auditor, the ludicrous position in which Mr. Broderick has placed himself is at once apparent. No one supposes for an instant that either County Clerk Ourry or Sheriff Whelan could pay enough depu- ties out of their ageregate salaries of $10,000 per year to keep their departments open, and the closing of these offices Eonlld mean absolute chaos at the City all. Of course no one believes that either Mr. Curry or Mr. Whelan intends to allow Mr. Broderick to dictate the entire workings of the City government for politicat or other reason. If when the time comes he refuses to sign the warrants they send him a writ of mandamus will be sued out and Mr. Broderick will be com- pelled to sign whether he cares to or not. As a consequence of his action Mr. Broderitk has created an opposition to his aspirations for prolonge: municipal honors that may be an important factor at the coming election, when he will ap- pear as a candidate for the position he now holds. Tne politicians who hold salaried posi- tions in the offices affected by his action are openly declaring that he will have cause to remember them on election day, and that his intended stoppage of salaries will cost him from 5000 to 7500 votes through their influence. Business men, too, are also beginning to view the situation with alarm, and to wonder whether it will be profitable to continue in power & man who by one single blunder might paralyze the entire City government and El-ca it in a posi- tion where only months of hard work could untangle the condition into which it would be tarown. ———————— THE PNEUMATIO TIRE. Said to Have Been in Use in England as Early as 1846. Most peovle are probably aware, says Engineering, that Mr. Dunlop was antici- pated in bis invention of the pneumatic tire by a William Thompson, who took out a patent for the device about 1846, The curious thing, and one which is less generally known, is that the invention was very thoroughly tested and shown to have great advantages, so far as the re- duction of tractive resistance is concernea, over the tires ordinarily in use. Thus, in the Mechanics’ Magazine of March 27, 1847, an account is given of a number of experiments made in the presence of the editor of that journal, which conclusivel showed the superiority of the pneumatic stem. A car fitted with the pneumatic wheels was drawn over a length of road in Regent's Park, half of the distance passed over being firm and smooth and the remainder covered with newly broken stone. The tractive resistance on the smooth portion of the road was 28 pounds with the pneumatic wheels and 45 pounds with ordinary wheels. On the newly macad- amized portion of the road the pneumatic wheels showed a tractive resistance of 3814 pounds and the ordinary tires one of 120 pounds. It wasalso shown that the wheels stood wear very well, as the car with which the experiments were made had been driven more than 1200 miles over every kind of road, the wheels remaming in excellent condition. The: ‘heels had an inner tube of soft rubber and an outer one of leather to take the wear; but in 1849 the leather was replaced by rubber, which was thickened on the tread, giving a tire apparently identical in_all essen- tials with those in use to-day. It is most remarkable that an invention so thor. oughly tested and shown to have such advantages as this should have been al. lowed to lie absolutely dormant for so many years. The very existence of the ‘patent seems to bave been forgotien till toe reinvention of the device by Mr. Dunlop. ———— Why She Disliked Steamboats. The wife of a physician who lives in Fourteenth street tells a story of a distant kinswoman of hers who was her guest during the Christian Endeavor conven- tion. The kinswoman lives in an inland New England town, and when she came to Washington she spent one night of the journey on board a steamboat. It was the first time she had ever traveled by water. She reached Washington extremely fa- tlgned. The doctor’s wife remarked it. “Yes, I'm tired to death,” said the kins- woman. *I don’t know as I care to travel by water again. I read the card in my stateroom about how to put the life-pre- server on, and I thought I understood it, but Lgflnan Ididn’t, though. Some way, I couldn’t seem to go to sleep with the thing on.”” ————————— The Poor Romans. “It is wonderful,” said young Mrs. Tor- kins, “to think of the progress the world has made.” “Yes,” said her husband, ‘“one can’t help seeing evidences of progress every- | where. Ifyou walk out on the streets you see electric cars and electric lights every- | where.” | *Yes, whenever I see an electric light I do feel so sorry for the poor Romans. How they ever managed to read anything by the light of those spluttery Roman can- | dles is more than I can imagine.”—Wash- | ington Star, | ————— A strange custom prevailed among the | ancient Egyptians.
