MR. KHLGER'S WIFE DEAD.

ter Hastened Her End.
Pretoria, July 21. Mrs. Kruger.
wife of former President Kruger, of tho
South African Republic, died yesterday
of pneumonia, after an illness of three
daysv. She was 67 years old.
. Mrs, . Kruger's long separation from
her husband, combined with the death
of. her favorite daughter, Mrs. Smith,
last week, haft completely broken her
spirits. Mr. Eloff and many members
of the Kruger family were at her bed
side when she passed away.

a ' dispatch to The 'Daily Mail, from
Hilversum, VMr.,Kruger was not in

returned from Hilversum church, burst
into tears and asked to be left alone.
He exclaimed; 'She was a good wife.
We quarrelled only once, and that was
six months after we were married.' He
prayed for a long time and is now
calmly sleeping, his Bible beside his

A ntl -Lynching, Movement
Baltimore News.
The Southern States seem at last tc
have awakened to a thorough realiza
tion of the disgrace which attaches to
tho application of lynch law and to
have determined to put an end to the
practice. Only a -few days ago a reso
lution was introduced in the Alaban.a
convention looking to that end! "rand
yesterday, in the Virginia convention,
another was introduced even more rig
t ror.s In its nature. It provides t'.ct
the governor shall offer a reward of
?:500 for the arrest and Conviction of
every person who shall engage in th'?
offense; that the crime shall be mur
der in the ft "St degree where the hang
ins: or lynching is accomplished, and
that it shall be the duty of the gover
r.or to pay $1,000 to the heirs of any
person lynched, the money to come
out of the State treasury and be charg
ed to the county or city in which the
crime was committed. The trouble
with this is the same which marks
many well-intended efforts at reform
goes to far and by its own severity
will defeat its purpose. Juries will
not convict lynchers of murder in the
first degree, and in this respect the re
solution needs amendment But the
spirit of it is right, and the conven
tion may be trusted to put it into work
ing form.

FEAR OF FOREIGN GOLD.D
JIr. Bryan Is Living Back in '96'
- While tlie World Moves On.
Chicago. Itecord-Herald. ..
Mr. Bryan's editorial ,on the Ohio
piatfonri is chiefly notable for what the
author has. to say of the money ques
tion. The- Democratic Convention at
Columbusy showed very el early that it
wished to. drop this question from poli
tics and'that it considered that it was
definitely settled against the conten
tions tOfxthe party in 1896. Mr. Bryan
standi wfcere he did in 1896, and says:
The gold standard will not be com
plete until gold is the only legal tender
money and bank notes the only paper
money. Then our supply of primary
money will be controlled by foreign
financiers and our supply of credit
money by domestic financiers."
The power of the foreigner was one
of the. notes of alarm sounded during
thecampaign of lS96Abut since that
time trie roreigner nas-oeen in a panic
over the power of the United States.
In purely commercial transactions we
have become the great creditor nation
of the world. Not only are our exports
the greatest of all, but they exceed
our imports by an enormous sum.
Complete official returns -for the eleven
months ended May are: Exports, $1,
359.961, 314; imports $754,862,478.
This uneven exchange will be balan
ced in various ways, but so far as it
implies power over primary money the
advantage is manifestly with the
United States, which we may add, is a
great gold producer, as well as a great
exporter of manufactures and agricul
tural staples. It led the world in gold
production in 1900 and had much the
largest stock of gold on hand. Furth
ermore. as affecting the quantitive the
ory of money, it i s to be observed
that there has been an enormous in
crease in the output of gold since the
premises of the argument of 1896 were
formulated. The yearly production
had increased from $155,522,000 in 1893
to $311,506 In 1S99, and but for the
Transvaal war the total would have
been still larger in 1900. As it was it
amounted to $255,924,654, and outside
the Transvaal there was an increase
of $10,171,000 over the output of the
rear before.
Increase of population lags far be
hind this advance, and the foreign fi
nancier, istead of being a dictator and
monopolist, is kept busy as the agent
who pays for American goods. So there
is neither a dearth of money, which
is unusually plentiful, nor captivity.

The M4icury Went-TTp to
The Strikers Expect to Secure Enough
Men to Keep the National Tube Works
Idle President Shaffer Satisfied With
the Week's Results.
Pittsburg, July '21. The important
event of the strike history of the day
is the organization of the tube workers
at McKeesport. The word from there
tonight is that after long and arduous
worn, Assistant Secretary Tighe, of
the Amalgamated Association, succeed
ed in organizing 125 men of the Na
tional Tube Works Company. At th
meeting 25 skilled men from each of
the departments were initiated into the
mysteries of the Amalgamated Associ
ation, and Mr. Tighe claims that
within 48 hours enough workmen will
be secured to keep the entire plant
closed down, affecting 9,000 men. From
Wellsville, nothing has been received
here except that the situation is un
changed and the strikers say every-
vning is satisfactory to them. It is be
lieved, however, that an attempt will
be made to put the men to work to
morrow. While the strikers say they
will not commit any overt act, there is
an uneasy feeling manifest throughout
the entire valley and no one is willing
to anticipate the result of the proposed
attempt to put these men to work.
When seen tonight President Shaffer
expressed himself as being more than
satisfied with the week's results. He
said: "Things are very much better
than I thought the would be. More
mills are shut down than we antici
pated, or could expect. There is more
determination on the part of the men
to aid us morally and financially and
from other labor organizations and a
vastly more supporting general public
than we were looking for. A message
from Duncanville says the men are out
there.
"We have lost no ground in the mills
thrown idle in Pittsburg. Our. organiz
ers at Wellsville report that after the
advent of a solitary worker there from
Vandergrift to go into the mill on Sat
urday, Wellsville and East Liverpool
were scoured to find other men on a
similar mission and found not one. I
can still repeat what I have said before
in regard to the non-union men taking
cur places. If the United States Steel
Corporation officials can get non-union
men. I will help lead the men into the
mills."
The 22-inch mill at the Boston iron
and steel plant of the National Tube
Company, at McKeesport, will resume
operations in the morning after a
shut-down lasting three weeks. The
plart was closed for repairs. A great
many menwill be benefited by the mill
resuming operations.but tttey were all
glad to get the three weeks' vacation.
The situation as to the Dewee-Wood
plant remains unchanged. Various ru
mors were in circulation throughout
the town during the afternoon a"u
evening to the effect that the mills
would try to resume operations r
'norrow, but they could not be confirm
ed. The company officials persist in
their refusal to name the date for re
sumption. EDITOR WANT tlBfcBTY
Rusian Emperor Was About to
Let Down tlie Bar Altogether
but the Reactionary Crowd
Scared Him.
St. Petersburg, Monday, July 8. The
grant of more liberal press regulations
affords additional proof that Emperor
Nicholas has emancipated himself from
the advisers, who still j hold the ideas
which prevailed during the unhappy
period that followed the murder of the
Czar Liberat to Alexander I. As an in
stance of more benevolent reforms the
following example is given:
A deputation of editors, led by a
courageous literateur who is nolonger
actively connected with the press,went
before His-JVIajesty with their humble
petition. Giveufe a press law," they
pleaded. "Let us be as Your Majesty
may deem it proper, but give us a law.
Let us know where we stand. Free us
from the domination, of officials whose
will is their only law. Give us as much
freedom as you can. We will not abuse
it."
The Emperor made a gracious res
ponse. The editors and publishers
breathed a deep sigh of relief. But they
were cruelly disappointed. The reac
tionary crowd gained the ear of the
Emperor. An artificial agitatiou was
started. The machinery of government
and the police were sST m mouon and
the Emperor was persuaded that fa
natical elements only waited for the
grant of modicum of "liberty in 6fder
to attck throne, altar and his own life;
The law now granted will restore cour
age to the press. Hitherto one waning
from the censor has spread a patile
through the editorial rooms. Two have
'put thein urder the sword of Damocles
and thtree were regarded as prelimi
nary to extinction, which ws rarely
long delayed. After three warnings the
authorities could shut up t&e news
