WHAT WILL HAPPKN TO JIM.
Dr. Jameson la on hie way to KngUnd.
and there Is naturally much curiosity aa
to how this unparalleled freebooter will
be dealt with. The Westminster Gasett
says he will be tried under the foreign
enlistment act of 1ST1. Ho will be ar
raigned In the Old Bailey and a Jury will
be Impaneled to determine whether he
has "prepared or fitted out any naval or
military expedition to proceed against the
dominions of any friendly state" while
-within the limits of her majest'ys do
minions and without the license of her
majesty." The punishment for this of
fense ts forfeiture of arms and munitions
of war, line and Imprisonment for not to
exceed two years at hard labor.
This la the law of the land. Rut we
know too much of the weakness of law
when confronted with public sentiment,
from attempts to snuff out our Cuban
filibusters, to suppose that -Dr. Jameson
will ever pluck oakum or tread the mill.
The feeling In London Is frantically fa
vorable to him. His foolhardlness scarce
ly less than his undoubted courage and
his rrim bearing In defeat appeals active
ly to the Imagination, and the man Is
the hero of the newspapers and the clubs
as well as of the muslo halls. The let
ters to the dally Journals breathe devo
tion to him. One writer says the ride
Into the Rand will remain among the
most glorious traditions of the race. The
mere mention of bis name arouses wild
demonstrations of delight In theaters and
at public dinners.
How secure a Jury to punish Jameson?
There are not twelve Englishmen In Lon
don who would dare convict htm In the
face of his probable plea that he crossed
the line under the Impression that his
presence was needed In Johannesburg to
save the lives of women and children.
THE NEED Of FORTS AND GUNS.
The London Globe says of the resolu
tion defining the Monroe doctrine reported
by the senate committee on foreign rela
tions: The English people will not stand much
more flouting from anybody, and these
gentlemen, whom we credit with no more
exalted sentiment than the wish to stand
well with their Irish constituents, may
very easily And themselves face to face
with a situation that could only be called
appalling.
More remarks of this kind may be ex
pected unless congress proceeds to put
this country In a condition where It can
defend Itsvlf with eas. These English
papers know that the United States
would be for a time In a situation which
might be called appalling we.-e it to go to
war with Great Britain.
They know that New York and other
American seaports are not defended by
land fortifications or by iron snd steel
ciad vessels. They believe that English
fleets could with Impunity bombard and
destroy the great seaboard citi.-s In case
they refused to ransom themselves with
much money.
This knowledge makes English papers
and English statesmen confident and In
solent That confidence and Insolence will
fade away as this tountry adds to the
number of Its armored vessels. Us high
power guns and Its impregnable forts.
The way, and the only vay, for con
gress to silence these snarling, sneering
critics Is to appropriate heavily at once
for coast defenses and for new warships.
If that Is not done they will bcome more
Insolent dally.
Ambassador Bayard's explanation of his
criticisms ot American politics, customs
and the character of people In speeches
delivered In England, as made public by
the president's recent communication
to congress In reply to the Barrett reso
lution, has caused much amusement and
merriment all over the country. The
ambassador's offense was undoubtedly a
grave one, particularly his criticisms of
American politics, and his styling of the
American people as self-willed and vio
lent" and requiring a strong man like
Cleveland to "govern" them. He ex
plains the latter by saying that It was
humorous and delivered In post-prandlal
style, and he makes the excuse that he
did not know It was to be reported. In
other words, the ambassador had had too
much wine and was too free with his
tongue. It is probable that his explana
tion will be accepted, and that no further
steps will be taken In the matter. It Is,
perhaps, enough punishment for him to
have thus to write himself down in his
country's records aa an ass, and to know
that he will never, while he lives, hear ; chilblains. Con.s, and All Skin Erup

The neighboring British possessions In:

lucrative to the United States as far as.
trade Is concerned. During the last five 1

Again, looking at our trade with Itritlslt
India ami the British East Indies, we
find that where we sold to them to the
ext.-flt of MR.410.114 In the last five years,
we have bought as much as S11MM.S4 of
tho products of Lascar labor, this balance
ot trade being against us to the extent
of S1.7M,U0. But this Is not the only
gain to the British empire. These In
dian goods were made by Lascar labor
which was paid In silver coin, and the
material of which they are constructed'
waa paid for In silver. John Hull, how
ever, won't take silver payment from us
for them. We have to toot his bills with
gold coin, and a pretty little promt he
makes by the transaction.

A NOVEL EXPERIENCE.
The Trouble a Twenty-Dollar Gold Tlece
Caused a Man In Chicago.
J. A. Odell, writing to tho Spokesman
Review from Chicago, under date of the
Uth Inst., says:
"I have had some experience In this
city that no doubt will be interesting to
your readers as it wss startling to me.
I stepped Into the First National bank of
this city the other day to get a to gold
niece chanred. The cashier drooped the
gold piece Into the scales and after a!
brief moment's figuring he Informed me I
that It was worth Sl9.es, or. In other
words. It was W cents short. I remon
strated with him and said that I had
taken It from a 8pokane bank for d and
that It would have to be taken from roe
for that amount. He Informed me that
they weighed every gold piece that came
Into the bank.
"In my astonishment, I an sorry to
say. I forgot to ask him If they weighed
every piece that he sent out. I was so
completely astonished that I stood mute
until he waited on a number of custom
irs, then I tried to argue the question
with him. but time Is too precious In the
First National bank for argument. He
gave me bark my gold piece and I went
back to my hotel. I was compelled to
have some change, so I thought I would
pay my hotel bill to date, and presented
the same 130 gold piece to the clerk for
payment. He looked at the gold piece,
then at me, and smiled as only a hotel
clerk can. 'I have no scales,' he said,
'to weigh gold with and cannot take it.'
I was paralysed again and wondered If
I looked like a gold rimmer or a counter
feiter. After I had sufllclentlr recov
ered I told him thst I had nothing but
gold and that if he collected my hill he
would have to take gold for it He said
something about retaining my baggage,
ana I went forth to get greenbacks for
my gold.
"I went to the Union National bank
nt alrNH tKa eahir fA rhnnfrjk A tlfl I
gold piece for me. He dropped It Into!
the scales and told me It was 15 cents
short. This wss too much. I began s
haranrue unon the East clamorinar for
gold and what It demanded of the West, I
and then when we Westerners would
bring down the yellow metal with the
stamp of the mint on it. It refused to
take It. The cashier was too busy to
reply further thsn to ssy that the sa
loons took gold for Its stamp value.
"I was fortunate enough to have some
greenbacks and I still hsv my gold.
Strsnge to say, there were thousands of
dollars of paper money and silver In g
sight, but not one dollar In gold In either
of these banks, which sre two of the
largest banks in Chicago." I

staretd In Paris by the Young or Liberal

criminal attempt which cut off the life
of M. Carnot. But as soot) as the news
reached Constantinople the palters were
ordered not to mention it. Still, as tile
sultan was made to understand that It
was Impossible to conceal a fact like that
of the death of the nxrMted presiden
of the French republic, Abdul llamld an
swered: 'Let them say that he died
from apoplexy. He feared that the even
might suggest to one of his subjects the
