( oil, :p was i:r inter mediary by whom the then Presi dent and the sj ecu la i o: v ,ie brought into persoiml eontaet. Mr. Ciould's theor in tliat veil ture was that the country had over traded with Furoj'O to theexteiit ot a hundred millions of dollars, and the way to pay this debt was to promote the ex jii u tat ion of grain. This could be done by advancing tlie price of gold. 1 1' this was done the "price of gold would go up while the movement was going on. and afterward drop down again. Thus we could make money both wavs, bv buving r then and selling it on the rise." The irreat sto in this "move-; ment" was to convert den. dranC to Mr. (build's theory, by which the' (fovernment would not sell gold. Corbin arranged meetings bet ween dnmt. dould. and Fisk. In his testimony before the committee of the House ol Representatives,' ( iould swore : !

Hacked by this poweiful intlu encc, Cioiild and Fisk bought enormous quantities of gold, the jiremium on which wa torced up to 14 1 the day preceding the collapse. Merchants and others who were compelled in their business to pay this ruinous price, were greatly ex cited under the threat that it would be raised still higher. The name of the President was freely used to lolster uji the speculation. On the morning ot the L'lth of September, the press assailed the w hole scheme ;us a sheer gambling operation, and at noon that day Mr. P.outwell ordered iour millions of gold to be sold, which burst the bubble and closed the coiner of dould and Fisk. Resides the injun which this gold gambling intlicteil. it was at tended with a scandal seiiously in volvint: the private and official lioil-eliuld o: the- President.

Geronirao tied from the reservation with other Apaches; and since then his name has been a synonym for bloodshed and horror until Gen. Crook's martial expedi tion into Mexico. When I was in New .Mexico a few months since. I heard the story of how Geronimo was captured, at the Ibt S;ir:ngs Agency in 1877, from the lijis of his courageous captor.

It was the custom of renegades to join the marauding Chincahaus on their forage in southern Arizona and Old Mexico. Then 'hey came back to the Hot Springs, and as the agent was unable to control them, they recruited themselves with Government supplies for fresh deeds of robbery and bloodshed. , The Legislature of Arizona had, in 17-'. appropriated ten thousand dolIaiN fur equipping a company of.
