The Monetary CONFERENCE.-The True
American Policy.

Official dispatches are reported to have
/ been received from Mr.. Evarts, delegate TO
the international Monetary Conference, TO
the effect that no satisfactory agreement IS
probable.
So that our Government will go on the
even tenor of It's way coming gold and
silver as it had done since the organlza-
ton of the Government until the latter
was demonetized at the instance of the
foreign and home bOndholders IN 1873.
In the same manner it willcontinue to fix
the ratio of the two metals, which under
the present law is Is of silver to l of gold
an arrangement that ought not to be
complained Of by the gold-bugs, inasmuch
a. it puts more silver in the dollar than
is prescribed by the laws Of any other
government The original ratio was
49, ofsilver to l of gold and that is
the standard of the French govern
ment Some further legislation is de
manded as to silver Its coinage ought
to be put on an equal footing with gold
as it was under the laws enacted by the
trainers Of the Constitution and in force
until 1873, when it was struck down at
the behest Of the money power. The
present law provides that the silver coin
age shall not exceed 4 millions month
nor be less than 2 millions 1t should
be unlimited. Further legislation is also
needed to compel the Secretary Of the
Treasury to use silver in the payment
Of the principal and interest on the pub
lie debt. Though under the law, it is
legal tender, gold is reserved exclu-
sively for the bondholders. This is a
crying outrage All the traditions of
our Government are against class favor
itism. But under the present system,
We have one currency for the people and
another for the bondholders fno other
State expresses the opposition Of the
people to this system of class legislation,

six millions of dollars per annum. The
Memphis Avalanche figures it down to
a fine point For a month 100000,
which only makes the contemplate sum
ofs122, 800 per week. which is but a
pitiful pittance of SIT 800 per day, and
only the infntesmal, despicable sum of

the enormous sum of dollar a day be

too rapidly altogether. 1t Is contrary
to public policy. Cut down their wages,
in order that Jay Gould may live. We

Street Grades.

The committee on streets, of the city coun-
Gil, held meeting last evening at which one
or two matters of considerable importance
were under consideration. One of these mat
tiers was the filling In of the crossing of Sew
enth street. A large number of the property
owners and residents on the other side OF
Phalen's creek Were present to urge the i'm
pOrtance of The work being doae. The mat
ter was finally referred back to the council fol-
action.
Gen. J. B. Sanborn, in behalf of the Lake
Como Railway company, appeared before the
committee, and on behalf of the company
filed an affidavit made by a. K. Barnum, ESQ. :,
president of the company, protesting against
the passage of the ordinance accepting the
tracks OF the street railway company on Rice
street, from Summit avenue, which were com
pleted several weeks ago. The argument made
by Gen. Sanhorn was that if the street rail.
way company were allowed to lay a double
track and the Lake Como Railway company
laid their track, it would practically occupy
the entire street, to the exclusion of any other
travel. Both companies have authority from
the city council to lay tracks, and the ques.
ton is, who has the prior right? The matter
was finally referred to the city attorney, for
his opinion, to report to the next meeting OF
the council.
A number of other matters were before the
committee, but all of them were postponed To
another meeting, to be held this evening.

CAMP THOMAS, Sept. 2.-There has been a
great uneasiness on account of the Apaches
for the past two weeks, over rumors that the
White Mountain Indians near the fjrt were
expected and ready to break out at any time.
On the 18th, Gen. Wilcox, commanding the
district, sent all the available troops in the
southern territory to assist in quelling dis
tlirbances of Indians who were then reported
to be melted by bad medicine men, who prom
Used to raise the dead warriors and clean out
the whites, but the time of the miracle having
passed, and no signs of hostility appearing,
the soldiers were sent back to their
posts. Gen. Cary, of the Sixth cav
airy, was at Fort Apache with
some scouts and several companies and there
seemed to be no apprehension of danger But
to-day courier arrived from the commanding
officer there g. ating that Gen Cary was out
to protect the settlers and had been fighting
all day on the 30th, losing number Of sol
diers. Couriers sent to him had not returned,
though twenty-four hours overdue. Gen.
Wilcox has ordered out all the troops from
Forts Grant and Thomas, and they were
marching all last night. They have crossed
the ella river and are pushing forward rapid
~ to the relief. Troops from Fort Lowell
and the southern ports are already in motion,
and Gen. Wilcox takes the field, to direct in
person the movement of his troops.
Tiffany, Indian agent at Santa Carlos, re-
ports that Indian runners have come in from
the White Mountains with rumors OF fighting
near Fort Apache. One lieutenant and a num-
Der of soldiers are said to have been killed in
the fight in Cebisque Greek. Owing to the
late heavy storm the military telegraph line is
down beyond Camp Thomas, and news comes
from Apache by mounted couriers.

he was not by any means a little one. The
Cincinnati clique, Mr.. n. said, commenced
operations IN August wheat by purchasing
about 5000, 900 bushels, and had no intention
at that time of running q big deal, they
having bought because they were firm be-
levers that wheat was worth more money on
It's merits. But after they had gotten 50 far
In they found they couldn't get out without
loss, and determined to push the thing through,
having faith that the price would touch $1.35.
They bought Is, 000, 900 bushels August wheat,
besides carrying an immense trade in Septem-
Der and October.
When asked II he was out of the deal, Mr..
Handy said yes. He had sold and had moth
ing more to do with it. He said the deal had
made them pile OF money-the estimate OF
what they made is given elsewhere. OF course
1t is impossible to get at the facts till the
deals are all closed and the business wound
up, but it is believed that the Tribune est-
mate Is nor far from the right one. Mr.. Han
dy said at the close that they intended to de-
liver the cash wheat to-day, and get out OF the
market as fast as possible.
An intimate Cincinnati friend of Mr.. Handy
said yesterday there was
TWO BRANCHES OF THE soOALLED CINCIN-
~ MATT CLIQUE;
the one under command OF Mr.. Handy, with
Preston and Sibley for brokers, and the other
under Mr.. Remmelsburg, with Billy McHenry
IN the foreground. The first branch was the
strongest one. 1t took on $1,000, 600 bushels
August wheat, while the Othsr carried about
1000, 600. Early in the month both agreed
that neither wing should sell out without the
others knowledge beforehand. They endeay-
ored to work in concert, but the Kennels
burg wing Is said to have been discov
cred unloading few days ago, and Handy at
once gave orders to follow suit. The vlula-
ton Of the agreement is said to have enraged
him beyond measure. 1t is not unlikely that
the deal would have been carried into next
month, If 1t had not been for this little break
IN the plans. The clique had an option bought
for $4,000 In banking circles to use a va,L
sum OF money ia case they decided to conduct
the trade into September, but they found they
could unload at handsome profit, and de-
about the condition of some Of the wheat
in the city, and the prospect of big receipts
probably helped theE to reach this con-
clusiOn. He did not think the clique contem
iemplated running into October, and thought
they had been credited with operations in that
month which their brokers were really carry
ing on for other parties He thought the
same parties might take hold later on In the
season, after they had gotten matters cleared
up. They had strong faith in wheat, beliey-
ing IL worth money this year.
This gentleman said the profits were proba-
bly, 81, 00) 900 for the Handy side and 81 ,OO0,-
600 for the Remmelsberg. Mr.. Handy is said
to have brought 81 ,0O0, 600 here which he did
not use. and TO have made pile in July. Buy
ing began in June. The price of August
wheat started at $1.08, and ran up to 81. 40,
the average being in the nsighborhood

THE NEW YORK R,PUsLIcANs.

The New York Republican committee
has met, transacted its business and ad-
jsurned. 1t failed to adopt a resolution
expressing sympathy with the President,
and the fact that Conklipg controlled the
committee is seized upon by some incon-
siderate correspondents as an evidence
that the Stalwarts of New York are not
at all regretful of the tragedy that has so
nearly bereft the country of its chief
magistrate. The GLOBE, with all sympa-
thy for the President and his family, and
none at all for the stalwart Republicans
represented by Conkling, does not share
the opinions of the correspondents The
omission of a resolution or token of
regard of some sort was probably an
oversight, as Collector Robertson says.
But even though it was intentional-but
such suggestion is utterly untenable.
The fact stands out in full relief before
the whole world that the assault upon
the President has produced unusual sor-
row. Democrats and Republicans, Stall
warts and featherheads, alike deprecate
the act.
Perhaps it is out of place for Demo
cratic newspaper to defend faction of
the Republican party from unjust asper-
sions. But sense of justice impels the
GLOBE to this brief allusion to what it
considers libel upon faction which,
though now in the descendant, may at
some time in the near future be in the
ascendant. No one would purposely ig-
more what is recognized as great
national calamity, and he who accuses
the New York stalwarts of doing so
writes himself down an ass. .fa q,,'F
