The Arch EDemy of Silver Makes dlmseA1
Heard Again.
CINCINNATI, October 1.-Senator Sher-
man visited the exposition this morning
and this afternoon. He was received with
enthusiasm by the Chamber of Commerce.
In the course of a brief speech be said:
But the greatest question of allperhaps is
the silver question: How to make it equal
to the gold dollar for there should only be
one standard. I have gone through one
press OF redeeming Uncle Sans money and
do not want to 60 through it again. You
might have put more silver in your dollar r
and made it equal to gold, but then it
would be too big ss it is now. But any
way it would be good thing to go to work
with. A dollar must be a dollar, and
dollars worth of silver must be put IN to
make it a dollar. That is honesty and
prudence. Ii had my way | would stop
the coinage of the silver dollar, gather IL
into Uncle Sans great vaults and then Is
sue certificates and let you handle them.
These certificates would form the basis oi
our National bank circulation and pre-
serve what believe to be the best system
OF banks in the country.
The tariff and other great issues would
in great measure regulate themselves, but
the silver question is the great one OF the
future. One dollar Of one value is what we
must have before We can have that stabil.
ity 50 necessary to National security and
business success.

WASHINGTON, October 1.-The Star to.

there seems to be no Importance attached
to the report that the President has offer
ed the Secretaryship of the Treasury to
Senator Mcpherson. 1t may be stated
with certainty that Secretary Manning is

ed to remain at the head of the Depart.
ment so long as his health will permit even

should be no breaking up of the Cabinet
lney had to work together. come what
might, to carry into effect Democratic
measures and make the administration q
success. OF course, such q calamity as the
illness OF Mr.. Manning was not taken into
consideration. When he was in such q
critical condition that it was uncertain
whether or not he would ever recover, and
he was Obliged to leave the Department
It seemed a. il his retirement could not be
avoided. Consequently his res; ;gnation was
sent in. Now he has apparently recovered
his health and he is willing and desires to

tration through, if his physical condition
will admit Of It. He would rut himself to

OF course, a. q friend, Cleveland would
not urge upon him too strongly to remain
if it involved injury to his health, but he
will do all he can to retain his services
without taxing his strength. It may be
said with certainty that Mr.. Manning
will maks the trial. Those who are in a
position to be best informed on the situa-
tion do not think that Senator Mcpherson
will be Secretary OF the Treasury, even
should Mr.. Manning find by experience that
his retirement from active life is necessary
