at an End.
u. ST.. JoHN's, N. F., March Sin the House
yesterday the Governor spoke at length upon
the disturbed feeling arising out of the affair
at Harbor Grace on st. Stephens day i'll
1888. He urged that every effort should be
made to allay the anger now prevailing. The
usual formal address in reply to the Govern
or's speech re-echoed this sentiment. The
government is a coalition of Catholics and
Professionals and was supported by every
Catholic in the House Mr.. Penny, an
Orange member moved an amendment to
the address denouncing the Harbor Grace
outrage, declaring that the present deplora-
BILE state of affairs was the result of
the disgraceful failure of justice at the
recent trials of the Riverhead prisoners
and that harmony and good feeling could not
be restored until justice had beeu satisfied.
This was oppo ed by the Catholics in a body
and by members of the government. Sir
William Whiteway moved an amendment to
the amendment which was much the same
in effect. but q more moderate tone. This
was carried by small majority, but equally
opposed by the Catholics. AS a result J. W.
Donnelly minister of customs, and R, j. Kent,
Speaker of the House, both Catholics, re-
signed The Catholic party is led by Sir
Ambrose Shea, who is prevented by the
political crisis from proceeding to Washing

A Woman Shows Signs of Life After

BUFFALO, March S.-One of the district
physicians of the board of health yesterday
afternoon reported most remarkable case.
Mrs John Kelly, who resided on Elk street,
had been i'll for SOME time with a disease
which her physician did not understand, and
the medicine he gave seemed to do her no
good. Monday morning the attendant found
Mrs. Kelly cold and Efelsss, and she was
pronounced to be dead. Preparations for
the funeral were made, but when Mrs. Kelly
was being dressed for the grave the atten-
dants were startled at discovering in the re-
gion of the heart perceptible warmth. The
physician was brought in, and though he
perceived the animal warmth he stated that
the woman was dead. The relatives refused
to believe him, and maintained that she was
in trance. The arrangements for the fun
eral were stopped, and the friends have
watched by the bed constantly all the week
waiting for her to revive. Though six days
have elapsed decomposition has not begun.
A council of medical men will further exam
inc the body.

rFhc silver Problem i.


A CORRESPONDENT wants TO know why forty
five millions of unemployed silver IN she
treasury is more dangerous than one hun
dred and fifteen millions of unemployed
gold. The feahoh is simply that the silver is
unemployed and cannot be employed with
out disaster, while the gold is not mem
ployed, but is held as a reserve from which
drafts are constantly made for payment OF
the interest on the public debt, the retemp-
ton of greenbacks, and so forth The SILVER
though it might lawfully be used for these
purposes. is not intact so used, because, II II
should be, the credit of the governments
would be impaired, since silver collar Is
worth in the markets of the world about
fifteen per cent less than gold dollar. In
the meantime tbs few silver dollars in c1rcu-
Iation and the silver certificates, wh1ch rep
resent the larger part of those stored IN the
treasury pass current without causing n
nancial disturbance, because they are com
naratiyely small part of the circulatin &
medium of the country; made up OF gold,
treasury notes, greenbacks or national bank
notes. both of which latter are redeenaple
directly or indirectly in gold The silver
dollars and silver certificates constituting
but small part of the whole, BEING INSULT
Gent in quantity for the needs of the country
as money, and the silver dollars being legal
tender, and the certificates redeemable in
silver dollars circulate at par without causing
any serious inconvenience for the present.
But part of the revenue of the government
is devoted to the increase of this stock OF IN
used silver dollars and as the increase stead
ily continues, the time must come when the
resources available for the purpose Will be
exhausted The government will have plen-
tv of silver dollars, but nothing else to psy
it's debts with: Gold will disappear from
circulation, as the mora valuable money
doez when in competition with cheaper
monev Our dollars will be worth fifteen
ner cent. less than they now are, as we shall
ind in all foreign and domestic transactions,
and the effect of that depreciation cannot be
less than disastrous.
The situation may be illustrated in this
way. The commissiary department of the
army, let US suppose, has certain amount
of money placed at its disposal for the pur
chase of supplies. 1t spends fixed amount
| for salt beef and pork, beyond its needs fol
| that kind of provision. A part of this is is
| sued to the army as portion of the regular
rations So long as the due proportions are
| observed, the salt provisions are well enough
| and the amount kept in store does no harm
of course, so long as it remains there Blu
| after g. time the commissiarys money l
| exhausted: he has only salt meat to issue
and the army suffers from scurvy Inc Sill
