known that he had a large sum of money in his
possession Il is supposed the murderers were
disturbed in their operations of rifing the
clothes of the dead man, as they overlooked a
pocket containing 537 francs. The doctors who
examined the body express the opinion that M.

THE DEMOCRATIC FIGHT.

Republicans Take No Part in the Assault on
the Administration.
Special to the Indianapolis Journal.
WASHINGTON, Jan. 14-The Democratic news-
papers throughout the country which have in.
the past had so much to say concerning the
probable course of the Republicans toward Pres-
ident Cleveland have now an opportunity to ex-
plain the course of their own party leaders in the
discussions which have thus far come up in
Congress- On Tuesday last the country was
edited by members from Texas, Alabama and
South Carolina, who believe in the unlimited
coinage of silver, and who rose in their seats and
discussed at length the policy of the Democratic
President in recommending the suspension Of the
coinage of this metal to Congress. The Repub-
licans took no part whatever in this discussion,
but allowed their political opponents to have
things their own way. It would be difficult to.
find a member OF the Republican party who isl
disposed to attack the President as vigorously
as was done by Mr.. Reagan, of Texas, or Mr..
Pugh, of Alabama, and it is not likely that the
chief magistrate will meet with any such attack
from those outside of his own party. Said q
Republican member of the banking and currency
committee to your correspondent:
'This little picnic is an affair in which we have
no interest. Our enemies on the right have
afforded us a great deal of amusement, and I
trust that they will continue to do so. The
effect of their speeches cannot be great on the
question at issue, namely, whether or not silver
coinage shall be suspended. but it will, think,
serve to keep up the conflict between the differ
ent classes of the party. and will aid us in the
coming congressional elections. It is their own
fight anyway, and we have no hand in it at

AN ATTACK ON BISMARCK.
Sensation Created by an Anonymous Arti-
Gle In Polish Newspaper.

Sensation Created by AN Anonymous Arti-
Gle In a Polish Newspaper.
LONDON, Jan. A-An article attacking Prince
Bismarck appeared yesterday in the Gazetopal-
sko, OF Warsaw, and attracted such attention
that copious extracts have been telegraphed to
the London journals. It is anonymous but
some correspondents surmise that the author is
Professor Mommsen, the famous German his
torian of ancient Rome. The ostensible basis of
the article is the success of Bismarck in securing
the adoption of his pet measure creating gov
ernment monopoly of the manufacture of spirits
The attack, however, is against Bismarcks
whole theory of government. The writer points
out that the success of the measure referred to.
and Of others of like character preceding it, are
notable illustrations of retrograde movement
IN German civilization. He quotes Herbert
Spencers latest volume to the effect
that fhere Is danger of reaction from the
progress OF the world towards the industrial type
or society because of leaning to paternal-
ism In government which tends as much as des-
potlsm itself to destroy individualism in the citi
zen The author argues that Bismarcks iniu-
ence is pernicious to Gerrnany's true develop
ment, as all the measures he has carried through
since the federation of 1871 have lessened the
freedom OF the citizens and made them more and
more dependent upon the government
1t ls strange" the article continues, that
the Teutons, among whom liberty was once
more dearly cherished than by other people,
should be led into iron bands by their chief
statesman"
Elsewhere it says: 'We once lighted others
on the path to freedom and individual develop
ment. To-day how changed We retrace our
steps toward imperialism under the guise of
state socialism" The concluding portions accuse
Bismarck of sacrificing the liberties of the peo-
pie to his overweening ambition to be regarded
