They Will Define Their Own Policy Regard
less of Other Sentimental Organizations.
WASHINGTON, July 2s.-Chairman George
o. Jones, of the national Greenback COM
mittee, will tomorrow issue a circular let
ter in which he will say: I'm reply to
many inquiries from Prohibitionists, fe-
male suffragists and representatives OF
other sentimental and semi-polit1cal organ
izations. asking admission to, or what
action will be taken by the coming Green
back convention on the questions
they represent. desire to say,
with due respect to all who honestly advo-
cate such doctrines, that 1t Is the almost
unanimous opinion among national Green
hackers that the national Greenback con-
ventioD, to be held in Cincinnati, Sept. II,
confine it's declarations of principles to the
questions of restored fraternity and
spirit of true common nationality among
the entire people; opposition to the danger
Gus sectlonaIism OF a solid North and solid
South; to payment of public debts ac-
cording to original contracts under which
they were issued; to the money, land tran

and making prices for American farm
products, English control over the volume
of our money. English manufacturing or
handling products of American labor, and
to such other questions as affect the ma

The letter then says that trade and COM

money, and declares that the application
of greenback principles would stimulate
business and increase the prosperity of the
labOring classes, and of the merchant, and
manufacturers.

lantic States, reports indicate that the
weather was favorable for all growing
crops and that cotton is improving rapidly;
also, that tobacco in Tennessee, Kentucky
and Virginia was improved and progressing
finely, except that planted in low ground IN
Virginia. which is suffering from excessive
rains In the Middle Atlantic states the
week was generally favorable for harvest
ing and growing crops. In New York an
average crop of wheat, rye and barley is
reported, while corn is poor, potatoes fair
and oats above the average. The excessive
rains have doubtless injured the fruit
crops in New Jersey. and grapes. are re-
ported as a failure. Excessive rains were
generally injurious to all except the corn
and bean crops in northern New England.
while in the southern portions of New
England crops were generally improved,
except cranberries, which were greatly in
jured by hail and vine-worm. Reports
from Oregon state that an average wheat
crop is being harvested rapidly, but that
the recent warm, dry weather has caused
some lniury.

OCEAN TREASURE TROvE.
Divers Hunting for a Schooner's Wreck Find
Rich Prize Of Pig-Tin.

Philadelphia Record.
The wreck of the English bark Midway.
which foundered in 1853 while bound from
London to Philadelphia with a cargo of tin.
lead and spelter worth over S150.O00, has
been located by the Atlantic and Gulf
Wrecking Company off Cape Henlopen.
Yesterday the schooner j. Howard Magee
landed at the Almond-street wharf a con-
signment of various metals from the Mid
ways cargo, which had been brought to the
surface by divers. and although corroded
by the action of salt water the entire con-
signment was sold at the highest market
rates.
The discovery of the sunken wreck and
her valuable cargo was made accidentally
two weeks ago by divers of the wreckine
company. who at once informed the super
intendent of their rich find. tThe divers
were searching for the wreck of a schooner
recently lost on the Hen and Chickens
shoals, which are few miles south of Cape
Henlopen. While on the bottom looking
for the schooner the divers saw glitterina
heaps of metal, that looked like great bars
of silver. They were, in fact, the pigs or
tin forming part of the cargo OF the long
lost Midway. These pigs of tin, OWING TO a
peculiar condition of the metal, were as
bright as they were on the day the Darn
went down.
The wrecking company at once decided ia
abandon its search for the sunken schooner
and look out for the more valuable prize;
which its men had so queerly. stumbled
upon little research convinced them
that the tin was part of the cargo of the
Midway.
After full preparations had been made
the work of getting ont the cargo was be-
gun. and that portion of il brought to this

RAWLINGS OF AN ANARCHIST.


CHICAGO, July 2S.-The one hundredth
anniversary of the storming of the Bastile
was celebrated by the socialistic and anaych-
istic societies of this city to-day. Although
not SO described upon the programme, it
was practically jubilee day for Chicago
Anarchists. Mrs. Lucy E. Parsons made an
incendlary speech that was vOciferOusly
applsuded by hundreds of listeners. ''The
fall of the Bastile." she said twas a victory
for free government, blow to tyranny;
but it did not destroy economic slavery.
We have free government; they have
free government in France; yet we are
slaves. There must be another revolution
[applausel-a revolution against the has
tiles of labor. The people must rise and
hear me. They Will rise, and they will

1.-THE revolution comes, the red flag

pie are triumphant, and history repeats it

The crowd cheered itself hoarse when
Mrs. Parsons ended with these words, and
continued cheering until the Marseillaise
was commenced by the band. Paul Croft
kau spoke in German. He said that men
by the very power of wealth ruled the
common people as they were never ruled
by men wearing the royal purple: he said
that another revolution was surely coming
and that Chicago could not stop it with
hangings, or the police of the world with
Calling guns. Tyrants would be again
overthrown and the common people would
again be triumphant. The story of the
French revolution would be repeated
throughout the world.
