HAYES AND THE SILVER BILL

WASHINGTON, Feb. 25.-John Sherman

came from the Senate. To those to whom he
could speak unreservedly hc was very urgent
In his appeals. To others. with whom his rela-
tlons were less intimate. no said that while the
Administration would not presume to. dictate.
he would nevertheless be gratined II they would
vote for tho bill as amended by the Senate.
This proves two things: First. that the Fraud
ulent Administration Is afraid to meet the issue
squarcly. and second that John Sherman will
not leave the Cabinet IL Hayes approves
the Silver bill. 1t may be assumed SAFE
ly that even II Hayes docs veto tho

These are the arguments the moderate silver
men are using with Hayes and ii seems TO be
an even change tonight that they will prevail.
There il also an effort being made to har-
monize tho moderate infationists on another
measure, which is TO allow free coinage, tho
Issuance OF silver certificates. with which
greenbacks may be- redeemed and the green
backs reissued. II is argued that II this bill
can be passed II will satisfy the great bulk of
tho silver advocates. and take the vexed uues-
tion out OF politics. Tho politicians Of both
parties are very anxious to get rid Of the flnan-
cial dispute.

as, OF opinion that Hayes will veto the Silver
bill. and he appeared by no means certain that
the veto would not be sustained. fearing that
one or two senators may change their votes.

GREAT BANK ROBBERY.
Nearly S3,OOO.O0O Taken from the
Maahattan Savings Bank, New
Il York, by Mask ed Burglars.

II Yesterday morning, between eight
sand nine o'clock, the vaults Of the
Manhattan savings Bank in New York,
were opened by several masked men
and robbed OF securities TO the amount
Icf -, 757, 700. The building Is six
Story one; the Bank occupied the
around floor, with entrances on both
Broadway and Bleecker street. A man
nalnsl Kohlman keeps barber shop in
the basement, under the bank, and the
iantor lives on the second floor.
The barber says that about twenty
minutes past eight o'clock, he was star
tled by the appearance, at the head of
the basement stairs, Of the janitor, Louis
Wertel, white with fright and ex-
citement, with his hands tightly hand,
oufIed, and the key Of the bank clutch
4 "a between them.
He was only half dressed, and gasped
sThieves' robbersl come and see!"
xhe barber accompanied him into the
bank and saw the doors of the great
vault wide open, and the floor Uttered
Nth tin boxes, all emptied Of their
contents. Burglars tools were scat
terei in every direction. The barber
Notified the police and Superintendent
Walling, Inspector Dilks, Captain
Barnes and CAPITAL Kealy were soon oa
the scene.
II Wertel, created an unfavorable i'm
pression, on cross-examination. II.
laid that at ten minutes past six, while
BE was dressing himself, seven masked
men suddenly rushed, into his room
md handcutf-d himself and his wife,
md demanded the keys Of the bank.
sHiscmother-in law, screamed, when
1he burglars drew pistols and threat
med instant death to any one who
made noise. They carried him into
- adjoining room, and forced him to
deliver up the keys of the street doors.
With these part Of the party went
down stairs, leaving three on guard in
I. bis room.
Three hours passed, and Wertel heard
n Aclock strike Q. Just then one OF the
men from dowL stairs returned, and
after whispered cons tation, they all
Ileft After he regained his courage he
vent down to the barber shop. as de-
s9sribed. Wertel admitted to Snperin-
tendent Walling that he had given the
eolnbination unlocking the door of the
vault to the robbers. He gave it under
threats OF instant death, but he failed to
tate how he got possession of the com
Mnation. His wife corroDorated the story
~ the attack but said there were only FIVE
nsn in the party. The Directors have
lssued notice that no payments will be
made without 60 days notice.

fact, we have the humiliating spectacle
Of the two great parties asking our suf-
frages In behalf Of candidates who are
not willing TO endorse temperance be-
cause their parties will not permit
them TO do so. A fountain never rises
higher than its source, and we would
show our short sightedness II we would
permit ourselves to be caught in such
web Of hypocrisy and deceit as this.
We have but one course, and that Is to
support the temperance ticket from
principle, and with the hope OF obtain
tanning the balance Of power. The
moment we secure the balance Of power
we will find the parties vieihg with
each other for our suffrage. Now Is the
opportunity for the conscience OF this
community to make itself felt. 1t will
not do for US to Set up paltry subter'
fugss TO excuse ourselves at this time
for bowling down to the party lash. We
do not expect to elect our candidates,
but, as ! said before, this is our Oppor.

can and Democratic parties q lesson on

Robert b. Mcdonnell the next speak
er showed some Of the causes why
prohibition did not succeed when II
existed in this State. Amongst the
causes was the want Of fidelity to the
cause on the part OF the protesting
christian community. He cited an in

Kent County where local preacher

ton who was sitti lg In the audience,
and who is ever jealous of tho character
Of the ministry, interrupted the speak
er, telling him that what he said was
not true.
Mr.. Mcdonnell maintained that what
hs said was true, and that the circum
stances had been told TO him by a gentle
man Of undoub bted character. Mr.. Hous'
ton excited!y denied the charge and
intimated that Mr.. Mcdonnell and other
speakers at the Foundry temperance
meetings make a habit of carping at
everything like christianity. Mr.. Wells
with his usual composure soothed the
feelings of the two old gentlemen who
were beginning to make things lively,
long enough to get Mr.. Houston to dis
miss with the benediction.
After the meeting had been dismissed
Messrs. Mcdonnell and Houston, re.
sumed their personal contradictions
much to the amusement Of those who
remained to see the fun. Mr.. Mcdonnell
challenged Mr.. Houston to meet him in
public debate upon christianity or any
other topic at any time and place he
might name, but Mr.. Houston, with the
dignity which he felt belonged to a
christian minister declined accepting the
challenge. Several others were drawn
into the controversy each having his
little say, and then subsiding. The gath
ering dispersed, all hands in a good
humor, and Mr.. Houston walking Oft
arm in arm with Mr.. Wells.

Tin this connection he scored the
Federal Office holders Of this State
severely; especially Postmaster Pyle
for refusing to appoint in his Depart
ment an honest and competent colored
man to vacancy. He said that he (ths
postmaster) had been weighed in the
balance and found wanting and that in
an hour of whichihe little dreams he will
be called TO step down and out. He
scalped Marshal McMullen in the same
style, and said that .'the black man
had as much right on q United States
jury as a white man; but they aint
there" There was only one Republi-
can Office holder that called into prac-
tice the true teachings Of the constitu-
tion and that was U. s. Marshal John
Dunn, and he thanked God for such a
man.

are Thy loving-Thy redeeming and
Thy regsnerating influences, for those

TEMPTATION.
Rev. ]. l. Caldwell mt II. Paul's M.
T.. Church Yesterday.

Rev. J. l.. Caldwell, pastor Of st.
Paul's NJ. E. Church, preached the first
of series Of four sermons on the sub
ject of Temptation" to large congre
CATION yesterday morning. Notwith-
standing the fact that he was suffering
so severely from an attack of vertigo Of
the night before, that he could scarcely
distinguish one from another in the
congregation, his discourse was pointed,
vigorous and eloquent. He took his
text from the l4th vsrse of the lst chap
ter Of the Epistle of James: "Butevery
man is tempted when he is drawn away
of his own lust and is enticed." Mr..
Caldwell alluded to the apparent dis.
crepancies in what Moses and James
said about temptations, the first saying
tempt not the Lord thy God, "and the
latter saying "God cannot be tempted"
This apparent discrepancy Mr.. c. said
was freely made use of by unbelievers
and scoffeIs to weaken the belief in the
Bible.
Moses and James both mad use Of
the word tempt but in ditferelt sense.
The word in the Greek which James
used implied persuadng and enticing,
and in the Hebrew the language of the
Jews which Moses used, it meant to test,
to try, as God tried Abraham. Moses
used it one sense and James in another.
Mr.. Caldwell thought that if the plain
Bible with it's concordance was taken
as the pse DIRT of Gods word there
would be no discrepancies.
Mr.. Caldwell then divided and sub
divided his subject, the first into
their heads as follows: First, there must
oe subject, to be tempted; Second, an
object of temptation, and third, a tempt
er. In his subdivisions of his discourse
Mr.. Caldwell madethe following 'oints:
lst, man possesses susceptibility of
being tempted.
I'd, man is placed under temptation.
81, man is endowed with volitiOn.
4th, man under his volition is in a
state Of temptation.
5th, man is exposed to an artful
tempter.
Mr.. Cardwell treated each point in a
prgctica manner carrying his cong g:ega
ton with him in feeling all through,
and wound up with an eloquent pero
ration warning his congregation not to
he enticed ani caught in the jaws with
the hooks of the devil.
Mr.. Caldwell preached the second
sermon of his series on "Temptatlon"
last evening to a crowded congregation
and the remaining two he will preach
on next Sunday morning and evening.
We regret that our space is too limited
to give a full synopsis of these able and
eloquent sermons.
