Paris, May 14.-At to-day's moneta-
ry conference, Senator Denormandie,
French delegate, urged the dangers of
the present monetary system. He
showed from the position of England
since 1887, that gold monometallism did
not afford remedy. Unless wise
measures were adopted, he said, crisis
would in the end violently force itself
on the money markets.
The next sitting will on Tuesday,
18th inst, when T. o. Howe, United
States delegate. and Others will speak.

The New Electric Railroad.

London. May 13-Siemens s. Halske,
the well known Berlin electricians, gave
to-day public trial of their new cleo
trio railroad, which runs between Lich-
terfelde and Cadettenhouse, six miles
from Berlin. The trial was an entire
success. 1t was made in a simple
train, with an electric battery con-
cealed between the wheels, which was
connected, through the rails on which it
ran: with the principal batteries at the
stations. The rails are 80 inches apart,
and exactly resemble those of an ordi-
nary railroad, the gauge being narrow
ef. The greatest speed obtained was
1S English miles an hour. If necessary,
far greater speed could be obtained, but
this was not allowed by the police
authorities. The railway will be
opened to the public on Monday.

WASHINGTON NOTES.
Conkling Treated with Derision-M
Garfield Slightly Better.

| ConkItng Treated with Derision-Mrs
Garfield Slightly BETTER.
Washington. May 14.-Conkling's
name, whenever mentioned at the meet
ing of the New York chamber Of COM
merce on Thursday night, was greeted
with signs of disfayor, and his letter,
saying he could not be there, was fire.
quently interrupted by derisiye laugh
ter while being read.
Senator Edmunds is greatly dis
pleased at the confirmation of Stanley
Matthews, and threatens to resign the
Craftsmanship of the judiciary commit
tee. 1t is discovered that Matthews
could have had three or four more
votes If they were absolutely necessary
for his confirmation. Few senators
were prepared to 60 on record against
him, but would have voted for him
rather than see him defeated.
Senator Conkling entered the repub-
lican caucus yesterday rather late and
made a short but sharp speech. He
said the caucus was called without
consultation with him, and that 1t was
an attempt to defeat him by indirect
methods. He declared that Robert
sons confirmation will disrupt and de-
feat the republican party In New York,
but said as the republican senators
were rushing on SO eagerly to that fate
be washed his hands Of the whole affair.
Mrs. Garfield is slightly better this
morning, but her case is still critical.
She will be for several days very weak
from excitement.
1t is said on very good authority that
the withdrawal of the nomination of
Gov. Lew Wallace as charge d'affairs
to Paraguay, will soon be followed by
his appointment as minister to Turkey.
Althogh the friends of VIM. E. Chand-
Ter have been very active during the
past week, it is not at all probable that
he will be confirmed as solicitor general.
So far as can be ascertained not sim
gle democrat intends to vote for him,
and it is known that at least four re-
publicans will vote against him.
The controversy over Robertson's
nomination seems to be virtually set
tied. No more suggestions Of compro.
mise are to be made and the republican
senator's generally predict that Robert
son will be confirmed next week.
Republicans having been removed from
the small postoflices in Virginia and
readjusters appointed, the republicans
began protesting to the president. and
it is now announced that halt has
been called, and that hereafter the re-
publicans will be retained.
Reports that the White House was in
bad condition. caused Rollins, Nor
rill and Angus Cameron to inspect it
to-day, with view to reporting its
condition to congress.
All expectation of defeating Robert
son has faded. Conkling will. in
speech on Thursday, state his position
fully, and probably there will then be
an immediate vote.
Arthur and Platt held long consult
alton with Gov. Foster and Postmaster
General James, urging them to secure
the withdrawal Of Robertson. Foster
promised to do all in his power to let
Conkling down easily.
Sec. Hunt has discharged two sons of
Sec. Thompson, and will weed out all
other favorites.

New York: The Tribune says there
is probability Of trouble at the Sunday
school parade in Brooklyn this year, as
the Unitarian, Swedenborgian, Uni
versalists. and some other denomina-
tions, have not been invited to partici-
pate. Beecher's Sunday school and the

make a parade on the same day on a

ing of the anti monopoly league was
held at Cooper Institute this evening to
protest against the confirmation OF STAN

the chair. Resolutions were adopted
declaring Stanley Matthews to be Pa
cifc railroad candidate, and denouncing
bis confirmation as proof of the purpose
to pack the supreme court with judges
who will reverse its decisions in the
granger cases. The resolutions also
viewed the nominations of Elliot
Shepard, son-in-law Of Vanderbilt, and
Hon. William H. Robertson, as alarm
ing proofs of the purpose and power of
the corporate monopolies. Addresses
were made by Major Haggarty. ex-Sen-
ator Creamer and NJ. Crittenden.

Republican to-day, referring to the pub
lished report that Gorham wrote the
five column attack on President Gar
field, recently printed in the New York
Herald. and that Senator Conkling fur
nished the material, makes the follow
ing explicit denial: George q. Gorham
did not write, suggest, or have any
knowledge, prior to its publication, Of
any Of the matter which has appeared
in the Herald concerning the president.
Senator Conkling declares that he
neither furnished nor inspired the mat
ter alluded to, and has no knowledge of
the authorship.

Death or an -OId Time- Journalist.

Washington, May Al. A. Cob
right died this afternoon from general
debility; aged 67. He had been i'll for
some months, but his condition up to
four O'Clock this afternoon was not re-
garded as dangerous. At that hour,
however, he suddenly began to sink,
dying peacefully about five O'Clock. He
was one Of the Oldest journalists in the
country, having been connected with
the press of this city 45 years. For
nearly 80 years he represented the New
York associated press in Washington.
He retired from active service in 70,
but his connection with the Office re-
manned unsevered until his death. He
was one of the most honest, upright
and faithful of men, and during the
civil conflict, enjoyed the fullest conf
dence of President Lincoln and Secre-
tarys Seward and Stanton, often being
called upon to assist them in the prep
aration of proclamations and other i'm
portant documents, which were finally
entrusted to his hands for telegraphing.
When Andrew jackson made his fa-
nous swing around the circle, Gobright
accompanied him and prepared an elabo-
rate report and telegraphed it to the
associated press. He was on terms of
intimacy with the celebrated men of
both political parties, who have figured
in public life during the past 40 years,
and though often trusted with import
ant matters, never yielded to the tenn
tation 70 print what had been commu-
Gated in confidence. His funeral will
take place on Tuesday under the au-
spices Of the l. 0. Q. F.

ever individuals styling themselves
democrats may do, the national conven-
tion Of the party can never select for its

Musical Festival swIndled-Bogus
Tickets.

New York, May 14.-The Tribune
says: The recent musical festival was
swindled heavily by messenger boys
speculation and others to the extent of
several thousand dollars.
Five immigrants arrived here from
Italy with tickets, which they paid for
at Turin to take them from that place
to Bradford, Illinois, but which proved
fraudulent on presentation to the Erie
railroad. The emigration commission
is investigating the fraud.

Tho Iunuences which Brought about
Matthew Conformation.

MattheWs' Combination.
New York, May 14.-The CONNER
oial Bulletin says: The real significance
Of the senate's confirmation of Stanley
Matthews as supreme court judge, is
not In connection with its party rela-
tionship, but in fact that power has
arisen In this country which is strong
enough now to overbear both the great
political parties, and. right in the teeth
Of an opposing popular opinion, and of
every dictate of propriety, to compel
those two parties; as occasion may re-
quire, to do their bidding. This is
at once apparent upon an analysis of
the vote. Thus, among the senators in
the affirmative. Twill it be believed?) J
are such leading democrats as Voor-
hees, Of Indiana, Pendleton, Of Ohio,
Beck, of Kentucky, and Lamar, of
Mississippi. We do not see how these
heretofore ostentatious opponents of
a corporate monopoly can look their
constituents in the face when they re-
turn home, after having made such q
record. 1t looks as il these constitu-
ents have been deliberately sold out.
The Sun says: To the credit of the
republican side Of the senate be it said,
that this astonishing event has been ac-
complished by the votes of the demo-
cratic senators. It is these chosen
representatives of the democratic party
who have elevated Matthews to dig
nifty Of which he il unworthy.

4 REaARKAW.E RAILROAD INVENTION
TuAr MAY REv0LUTIONJZE THE OLD SYS-
TEy.-Mr. J. V. Meigs, the inventor OF the
"Mcies Elevatee Railroad" yesterday eX-
hibjted models ct the Carrollton Hotel. in
Baltimore, which attracted the attention OF
numerous visitors. Among the callers
were Hon. George w. Brown, John T..
Poe, Walter Wilkinson, General Bradley
r. johnson. Major Nandeilip Of Washing
ton. and others. Divested OF technical
terms. the invention is an elevated road,
The track consisting OF a single rail. The
road is upon posts, with an upper and 4
lower-track beam or chord. The car
trucks III down over the upper beam in
such way that the ear cannot leave the
track eyenif il should lose one or several OF
its wheels. Two Of these wheels run hOri-
zontally against the rail OF the upper beam,
and grooyed wheels, which support the
weight Of the car, run on the lower
beam. The locomotive is OF peculiar con-
structiOn, calculated 20 climb grades, and
the matters OF curycs, couplings, switches,
&c., are dealt with on new methods. The
points OF interest IN the invention are that
such an elevated road in cities would not
take ND much more strcetway than one OF
the unsightly lines Of te!egrapb-poles with
which NIL are familiar, anditwould not cost
more than third as much as the yault-like
structures which bury many OF New Iork's
best streets. Mr. Meigs. who has given
years OF study TO this scheme, is vcrSed IN
the science OF railroad bnildiDg and operat-
ing. The invention. II a success when put
10 practical test. would reyolutiOnize the
present system of railroading. Tracks
would climb mountains instead Of going
through or around them, and people would
make single rail journeys in the air at a
speed that the inventor thinks could be put
MP TO 40 miles an hour. Baltimore Sun.
