Ex.Narshall Maxwell, of Utah, says
the most effective, peaceabls way to
abolish pelygamy In Utah wsuld be
the establishment of Home of

to abandon their husbands. Poly

the Mormon law. A great many

and, besides, cannot have the benefit
Of dover; 80 they suffer, rather than
be thrown upon their own resources.
Could they 60 to such q place where
they would be supported and pro-
tected, thousands would throw off the
tyrannical yoke Of their husbands and
the more infamous rule of the church.
The Home Of Refuge" could be built
by charitable contributions. The
various benevolent and missionary So
cieties Of the country should take this
item into serious consideration. Per.

I'M THE sOUDAN.

SUAKIN, March n.--Osman Digna's savage
reply TO Sheik Morghan, that he is determin-
ed to drink the blood of the Turks and their
allies, has provoked the British soldiers, who,
since the battle of Teb, have desired to spare
SO brave foe. The reply is signed by tw eniy-
one Sheiks representing 10000 combatants.
There is some a0xiety as to the issue of the
next battle owing to the brokeH nature of the
ground. The plentiful brush renders the
square formation of troops impracticabe.
Firing has begun at Bearba. Gen. Graham,
Col Stewart and his whole force have gone
thither.

The CattIc Distempor in Kansas,

WARRINGTON March 1.-THE United States
veterinary surgeon at Fort Leavenworth, DR..
HocoInb, detailed TO investigate the cattle
disease in Woods county, Kansas, reports it
the foot and mouth disease in a severe form,
and not the dreaded anthrax or black leg, as
at fret supposed, which is much more fatal
killing 80 per cent He did not expect to find
the foot and mouth disease, but was prepared
to find anthrax. The foot and mouth is a spe-
cific disease that takes its own time The ma
jority of the cattle examined showed the char
acteristics of this peculiar disease. Ia the
more recently discovered cases very high
temperature was found, which belongs to this
epidemic about 40 degrees fahrenheit, One
of the most positive proofs of the correctness
of the diagnosis is the death of calf several
days after the mother was taken with the dis
ease. The disease poisoned the milk, and
thus killed the calf, which was only few
days old. When an animal is attacked it be-
comes feverish and stupid, and the climax of
to ediseass is the rotting off of the hoof5, fol
lowed by death.
KANSAS CITY, March ia dispatch from
Neosho Falls, Kan, says in reference to the
foot and mouth disease among cattle that the
situation is becoming more serious and the
cattle men assembled here are fearful of the
result. A meeting here today brought stock
men from all parts OF the State, fully 500 be-
ing in attendance. 1t was organized by the
election of Lieutenant Governor Finney as
president, who said that so far only stock cat
lie havs been affected and cattle fit for ship
mept have not been affected,

SILVER DOLLARS.
Congressman Dingley's Views, ON the Sill
yer Certificate Bill.

WASHINGTON, March 11.-Gov. Dingley of
Maine, who was Chairman of the sub. COM
mittee of the Committee on Banking and Cur
rency in the last House, which had charge of
the Silver Certificate bill, and who made the
report on the subject, in speaking on the re-
newed agitation of the silver certificate ques-
tion says that the following are his views of
the present situation: The position which he
assumed in the report of last year is not chang
ed, except in SO far as modified by new facts.
These points, doubtless, represent in summary
form the views of most of the sound money
men upon the committee. Gov Dingley's
points are:
First-That the silver dollars coined have,
in large part, failed to get into circulation;
that the demand for them is not popular, and
that the hope OF maintaining large volume in
the future is futile.
Second-The coinage of the overvalue silver
dollar has not bridged the gulf between the
gold and the silver dollar, There has not
been day since the Silver Dollar bill passed
that silver bullion was worth as much as it was
when the silver bill became Law.
Third--This result makes it clear that the
causes of the depreciation of silver were out
side of any act of our Government, conse-
quently they cannot be removed or affected by
the United States alone; only an international
agreement can do this,
Fourth Successful bi-metallism is impossi-
BILE with the continuance of the coinage of the
over-valued silver dollar in the absence of an
international arrangement.
Fifth-Full legal tender silver dollars will
net be circulated freely with gold dollars, un
less they are equivalent in value. Con-
sequently silver dollars coined ought to be of
such weight as to be equivalent in intrinsic
value to gold dollar, if it is desired to have
the full bensft of both metals as money.
Sixth-The overvalued silver is now main
tained as to the fifteen per cent. at which it is
inferior to gold by the redemption at gold
value by the government for duties and taxes,
but the limited redemption will be sufficient
only SO long a5 the number of silver dollars
outstanding is limited. The time must come,
if the coinage is continued, when this will be
insufficient, and the silver dollar will depre-
ciate, which depreciation will be manifested
by gold being sold at a premiam and exported,
while we shall be left with silver and the sill
yer standard.
Seventh-The remedy for this state of things
is to suspend the coinage of the silver dollar,
or at least to limit it to the demand for circula
| tion until an international agreement can bt
made with the leading commercial nations as
to coinage ratio for gold and silver or else to
| coin legal tender silver and gold coins of suct
| weight as to make them equivalent in value,
or better still, to adopt the PROPOSE ion of Mr.
| Hewitt of New York to authorize the United
States Treasury to exchange gold coins fo
| legal tender silver dollars and vice versa, anC
| to coin no more than are wanted for use

DENVER, March 11.-Last night a snow
slide descended upon the little snow-bound
station OF Woodstock, on branch of the
South Park Railroad, 70 miles southwest OF
Leadville, carrying away every building in
town. Seventeen persons are known to have
been caught, including Mrs. Doyle and six
children, another unknown woman and ten
men.
Two women were rescued last night alive
but seriously injured, The body of one sec
tion hand was recovered this morning, but
none others can escape alive. A large
number of citizens have started on snow
shoes from Pitkin for the scene OF the disas-
ter. Among the missing is j. s. Brown, tele-
graph operator.
The snowfall in the mountain district OF
Colorado the present is without parallel in
the history of the State. Many mining camps
have been snowbound since November. De-

one to five thousand inhabitants, are still

MONTREAL, March 11.-Railway men all de-
clare that the storm of the past two days has
had more disastrous effect on railway travel
than all previous storms this winter. The rail-
roads from the South converging in Montreal,
are now open. The Montreal & Sorel road is
still blocked, and traffic is at standstill. The
Canadian Pacific road is partially open, and a
train, the first since Saturday. reached here

snow between st. Therese and st. Augustin is
piled nearly twenty feet deep. The North

been snow bound since Saturday, at Lorette
The storm is still raging, and fears are enter
tanned that railway traffic will be still further
and more seriously interfered with
MINNEAPOLIS, March 1.-THE most severe
blizzard of the season is raging here, and trav-
el of all kinds has been suspended. Specials
from points in Minnesota and Dakota state

NEW YORK.
DIR. Newnan's Church Dimculty.

New YORK, March 1.-THE council called
by Deacon Ranney and Others of the Madison
Avenue Congregational church met to-day at
Association Hall. Every church invited ex-
cept two was represented. DR.. 81. M. Dexter,
editor of the Boston Congregationalist was
elected moderator, and DR.. A. II. Quint of
Dover, N. H., chosen scribe
Mr.. Austin Abbott representing the Ranney
party made a statement as to the troubles in
the church. Deacon Foster representing the
Newman faction protested against the council
as being ex pdrte and the calling of which was
clearly against the teaching and practice of
the Congregational church; a mutual council
was the proper one, but the party of Dr. Ran
ney had never proposed such thing although
the Newman party often suggested it, Mr..
Hopkins handed up a statement which was
addressed to the ecclesiastical council, and
which protested that their letters were not in
reality issued by the church and therefore of
no authority. Among the signers of the
protest are Gen. Grant. Shepherd Knapp, j.
Trumhill Smith, Daniel B. Smith, John G.
Anderson, Theo Pine and Alexander Mccall.
