GERMANY AND THE DEMoNETIzATIoN OF
SILVER.

LONDON, May l0.-A letter from Berlin to
the Economist upon the subject of the alleged
tendency of the German Government to favor
resumption of the double standard, says
+" Not the slightest credit Is due to such rumor.
Leading financial authorities of all shades of
opinion are united IN the belief that it is i'm
possible for Germany to resume the double
standard without the cooperation of England.
Undoubtedly an able and influential bimetal-
list party exists in Germany, and still hopes
to secure Englands help in remonetizIng sill
yer. but they agree with the single standard
party in opposing isolated action

TQ.DAY'S LEGISLATURE
Wrestling Like Valiant Trojans With
Temperance Laws.

Special to the Star.
COLUMBUS, O., Feb. 1S.-Owing to rainy
weather nearly every seat in the House
has member in it. The temperance folks
sent in their usual grist of petitions, which
were turned over to the Temperance Com
mittee.
Several petitions were presented asking
for the passage of law creating State
Board of Health.
A petition was received from J. H. Jones
and l42 others, asking that Washington
Township, Stark County, be divided into
two voting precincts.
Mr. Young's bill, to regulate the sale of
liquor, was taken up. Amendments
flowed in thick and FAST
Mr.. Groome opposed the passage of the
bill, saying the laws now, on the statute
books were ample to shut up every saloon
in the Stats. Others claimed that it was
impossible to secure conviction with the
present laws.
Pending discussion the House took a re.
cess for dinner.
Nearly all the Senators were in the seats
this morning looking wiser than owls.
Several local option petitions were pre-
sented, and, after being disposed Of, a
number of bills were read the second time.
Mr.. Richards bill, authorizing the forma-
ton of partnership associations, making
the capital subscribed al ne responsible for
debts of the association, was discussed quite
lively by several able Senators, several oI
whom claimed the people were all honest
while the others held different view.
Pending discussion Of the bill the Senate
took arecess.

Palace.

VIENNA, Feb. l8 "A cypher dispatch re.
eeived here from St. Petersburg to-
day, says that as the details of Yesterdays
attempt upon the life OF the Gar are more
fully made public, the escape If the Empe.
70 and Of the entire Imperial family from
Instant death, seems most remarkable.
The force of the expl sion tore much
larger hole in the floor of the dining hall
than was at first repor ed, the wrecked por.
tion being not less than fifteen feet in
length BY twelve in width. Fragments oil
the timbers were thrownall over the hall.
md had the Gar and Instantly been seated
h their accustomed places at the time,
they must have been destroyed.
There is great deal of comment and
surprise over the fact that despite
the supposed vigilance of tie guard
around the Imperial Palace. the mine was
laid. Since the receipt by the Emperor OF
the printed warnings sent him just after
the failure of the attempt upon his life on
the railway near Moscow OH the 5th OF
December, that the Winter Palace and him
self would yet be blown up int' the air,
the palace has been guarded by the secret
police, the adjacent streets patrolled night
and day by picked force Of the guard.
The grounds were brilliantly illuminated
at night by electric light and all persons
found wandering in the vicinity unable to
give an account OF themselves have been
Immediately placed under arrest. Owing
TO the seeming absolute impossibility OF
