The recent declarations Of the Republican
and Democratic parties Of the state Of New
York are equally in direct opposition to the
views Of the Sun on the silver question.
The NATIONAL REPUBLICAN opened its
columns some weeks ago for discussion of
this great question, fully believing that a
solid foundation had not been reached by
either party.
The time will come when an English pol
icy will not control the coinage OF the
United States or the schedule for customs
dues. In other words, an American policy
as to tariff, coinage, and currency will
dominate upon the western hemisphere.
In this important work the New York
sun has the ability and independence to
contribute most valuable aid, as discussion
alone, on this as upon other questions, will
at last show the bedrock on which 10
build.
The great producing, manufacturing, and
labor interests of the country are beginning
to give this question the consideration it
deserves, regardless Of former teachings
and theories.

The Denver Strike.

DENVER, May ll.-Contrary to gen.
eral expectation, the officials of the Den
yer & Rio Gande railway did not re-
open their shops to-day. At G this
morning 1000 strikers and employees of
the Burlington and Union Pacific roads
congregated opposite the Denver & Rio
Grande shops. The declaration of indie
~pendcndence was read and Knights of
Labor songs were sung with great gusto.
The presence of the large crowd deferred
the weakened strikers and Others from
going to work. The officials say the shops
will surely be %re-opened in u few DAYS.
Yesterday a large mass meeting was held
at the rink, which was addressed by ex-
Congressman Bedford, who severely criti-
cised Judge Hallet. of the United States
Court, for sending several strikers to Jail
for sixty days for contempt in interior
ing with workmen in the early days Of
last week.
DENVER, May 1.-THE Denver & Rio
Grande strikers had a mass meeting
in Denver on Sunday afternoon. The
Mammoth rink was filed with over 5000
people, andbut few of them were attracted
bycuriosity. 1t was n decorous meeting,
and gave tho strikers great encourage
ment. The fourteen assemblies of the
Knights of Labor, OF Denver, also held
meetings in the afternoon. and adopted
resolutions of sympathy and proffered any
aid that may be needed. There is no in
dication that either side in the controversy
will yield soon. Thirteen men are now
under arrest for alleged contempt of court
by advising others not to 90 to work. The
United States court, Judge IIallet, pre-
siding, will try these cases next Wednes-
day. Until then the strike will remain in
stdtr quo, probably.

Excited P-olygamists.

SALT LAKE, May IA letter dated
the 10th, received tonight from Oxford,
Idaho, says: THE greatest excitement
prevails at Bear Lake. On the 9TH war
rants were placed in the hands of three
deputy marshals for the arrest of eight
po~lygamists at and around Paris. Moth
ing was heard from the matter here until
this morning, when kilograms announcing
the fact that the polygamists were all cor
rallied in a meeting house at Paris, under
the protection Of an armed guard of
brethren on the outside, were received.
The deputy marshals who attempted TO
make the arrests were marched out of
Paris by an armed mob, who threatened
they would kill anyone who attempted to
serve a warrant Marshal Fred Dubois,
upon receipt of this news, Immediately
telegraphed Superintendent Blickensder-
fer, at Pocatello, and chartered a special
train to convey himself and party to
Montpelier, from which point they will
reach Paris about 5 p. m. to-day.

A Desperate Murderer.

WASHINGTON, d. c.. May ll.-Lang-
ster, the murderer of Police Officer Fow-
Ter, who is to be hanged in this city on
Friday next, made a desperate attempt to
escape from jail to-day. He was taking
exercise ia an enclosure set apart for that
purpose, which is separated from the
central conrt of the jail by an iron lat
tice work fence, and when the officers in
charge for the day opened the gate in
the fence to pass him through to the court,
he suddenly attacked and %overpowered the
guard on the inside and then struck
Woodward, the officer, who was passing
through the gate, and forced his way into
the central court. He was quickly Sc
cured, however, before he could get any
further and was hustled into his cell.

WINNIPEG, May 1.-The wire is still
down between Gu Appellee and Hum
bolt, and there is no further word from
the fort. Great anxiety is felt. A Sas-
katchewan Landing dispatch says: An
order was issued here last night by Gen.
Lourie, that the entire corps of the 18th
fusiliers and two companies of the Mid
land battalion should proceed at once to
Clarke's Crossing. They left this morn
ing at s o'clock on twelve barges. The
force numbers nearly $50, under COM
mand of Col. Deacon. They expect to
reach Clarkes in about five days. Two
companies of the Halifax battalion will
leave Swift Current for this point to-
night, reaching here tomorrow evening.
Another small detachment of mounted
men have gone from Brittle to join Col.
Boulton.
Private advices from Gu Appellee say
that trouble is still apprehended from the
Indians in that vicinity. There is n
strong enough force for defense there.

Line Steamers.


Line Steamers.
HALIFAX, May 1.-THE White Cross
line Belgian steamer Helvetia, with a gen
eral cargo, and which started from Ant
werp April 2s for Montreal, was sunk off
Scatterie, Cape Breton, Saturday. This
Is the fourth steamer of that line which
has been lost within as many years. The
steamer August C. Andre sailed from
New York for Antwerp and never was
heard of. In the fall of 1888 the Her
man Ludwig sailed from Montreal for
Antwerp, with a crew of thirty men
and a valuable cargo, and that was the
last heard of her. Only thirteen months
ago, the Daniel Steinmann crashed on the
rocks at Sambro islands and I24 lives
were lost. The Helvetia makes the
fourth vessel that has met with disaster.
A rather remarkable coincidence is that
Capt. Sehoonhaven, who commanded the
Daniel Steinmann, was also in commands of
the Helvetia, and this was the first pas
sage across the Atlantic which he has
made since the wreck of the Steinmann.
The Helvetia arrived in the Gulf of st.
Lawrence over a week ago, and has been
knocking about in the ice for seven or
eight days. Her bows were stove in and
she was otherwise damaged by ice. She
was leaking badly Friday. Capt Schoon-
haven left Cape Ray and bore up for
Sydney, having all he could do to keep
the ship afoat. On Saturday a heavy
sea sprang up and he hailed the Allen
line steamer Arcadian, which was passing.
The Arcadian took the Helvetia in tow
and headed for Louisberg, but had not
gone far when Capt. ~Schoonhaven called
out he was sinking. Boats we're lowered,
and the passengers and crew got into
them as soon as possible, but none too
soon, as the last boat had hardly got clear
before the Helvetia careened over and
sunk. The steamer Arcadian then put
back 10 the strait of Canso and landed the
survivors at Port Hawkesbury.

The Cunningham-Burton Trial.

LONDON, May 1.-THE trial Of Gun
ningham and Burton for alleged COM
plicity in the dynamite outrages at West
minister hall and Lower London, began
this morning in the Central Criminal
court. The trial takes place before Sir
Henry Hawkins. Very little public in
terest is manifested in the trial. A panel
of 100 iurymen was summoned, from
which to secure a jury for the trial. The
defense was allowed thirty-five challenges,
but only fifteen men were objected to be-
fore a jury was obtained. After the jury
had been sworn, Attorney General James
opened the case for the prosecution. He
stated they expected to prove Cunning
ham guilty of causing the explosion at
the Tower and the author of the outrage
at the Victoria railway station. The trial
was adjourned until tomorrow. The evil
dence submitted was only a repetition of
the testimony at the preliminary trial.

LINCOLN, May 1.-THE State journal
will publish an interview with A. s. Pad
dock, member of the Utah commission, in
regard 20 the address to the president
and nation recently issued by the Nor
mon elders. He says that the strict en-
forcement OF the Edmunds' law has
caused a wavering among many of the
Mormons, and that the object of the adj
dress is to cause a revival of religious en-
thusiasm and to prevent apostasy. He
thinks the address has had its intended
effect, temporarily, at least, and has stiff
fened many weak knees. He believes,
however, that it will demonstrate to the
nation the necessity of a more stringent
enforcement of the law. He asserts that
the law has been fairly administered by
the ..commission. and declares that its deci-
sions have sometimes been criticized for
being favorable to polygamists.

Jules Ferry, late French premier, has OBJ
tanned a secret interview with the pope
and has promised, in return for the sup
port of the clergy in the coming elections,
to strengthen the concordat if he shall be

Czacki has the ear of the pope, and it is
expected he will replace Cardinal ia

tention in office will be impossible, as he
is becoming completely deaf.

concerning the government position with
Russia, a dramatic and exciting incident
occurred. The duke Of Argyle was max

WINNIPEG, May ia battle has
been raging since Sunday morning at
Batouche between Middleton's forces and

understood to be a drawn battle. An
attempt will probably be made when the
works have been reduced to storm the po-
sitions simultaneously from the front and
flank, when frightful fatalities are likely to
result, as the enemy are well armed, and
deadly in aim.
