POLAR bear in the Cincinnati Zoo
gave birth to two cubs the other night.
The cubs are believed to be the first of
their species ever born in captivity in
this country. 1t will require great pa
thence and care to raise them, as their
diet, after the weaving process is over
must be mainly fish, in pursuit of which
they usually show great power of swim
ming and diving. They also feed on birds
and their eggs.

FAR FROM BEING SETTLED.
The Union Determined to Garry It's Point.
The Eight-Hour Movement Growing
All Over the Country.

CHICAGO, April 21.-No progress was
made toward the settlement of the car
penters' strike today; in fact, a
settlement seems further away than
ever. 1t was understood that as
soon as the new bosses associa-
ton should become strong enough
to employ four thousand men, work by
that number would be resumed. Today,
however, the strike leaders say under
no circumstances will any of the men be
allowed to return to work until bosses
representing seven-eighths of the en-
ploying capacity of the city have given
in and recognized the union. 1t is not
likely that this will be done soon. The
citizens committee appointed to bring
about settlement of the trouble has
given up the idea of a conference with
the strikers, owing to this radical change
in their position.
Samuel Gompers, president of the
American Federation of Labor, was in
the city today, and, talking about the
! eight-hosr movement, said: The labor
Organizations of the country are devoted

LONDON, April 21.-In the Commons
today, Parnell moved that the Irish
Land Purchase bill be rejected. He
said that the measure justified the
claims of the Nationalists made nine
years ago. He welcomed Balfour as the
latest recruit to the ranks of the land
reformers. While accepting the Gov
ernment's recognition of land for the
people, Parnell declared that he could
not admit that the bill was a satisfactory
solution of the land question The initial
question was how far the British
taxpayer would go on lending credit to
the Irish landlords. The experience
gained by the discussion of Gladstone's IS
land bill in 1886, showed that the tax
payer would not go far enough to finally
settle the land difficulty. The present
bill was meant simply to enable one
ninth of the owners of land in Ireland to
sell out at exorbitant prices, leaving
the poorer residents in the 1urch.
Parnell also objected to the bill on the
ground that it did not provide for carry
ing out what it proposed, while it ex-
hausted the only Irish credit available,
without the consent of the Irish, and
without any local control in the appli-
ance of money. Again, while coercion
was applied as it now is, a
tenant can never be free agent.
The bill, he declared, was unsafe to
the imperial taxpayers, the guarantees
it provides being illusory and insuffi-
cient. According to Balfour's own fig
ures relief was to be provided for only
three-fourths of the tenants.
Parnell spoke at great length. Ire
velyan also spoke in opposition to the
bill. The debate was then adjourned.
The Parnellites are divided in their
opinions ON Mr.. Parnell's motion. They
think an explanation is necessary.

WINDOWS POLICY.
Senator Stewart Says 1t Is a Scheme to
DemOnetiZe Silver.


WASHINGTON, April Ex-senator Stew
art, of Nevada, in an interview which
will be printed in the Post tomorrow,
sharply .criticises Secretary Windom's
attitude on the silver question. The
Senator asserts that it is Secretary Win
dom's policy to demonetize silver. The
Secretary, the Senator says, confounds
the silver question with the money ques-
ton. The business OF the country is
suffering badly from the want of more
money, and what the silver men ask is
that more be created. The provision Of
the Window bill, giving the Secretary
discretionary power in the purchase of
silver bullion, is attacked on the ground
that past experience with Secretaries
of the Treasury shows that this is
unwise. The bullion redemption fea-
lures of the Window bill are also
attacked, the Senator declaring it's OBJ
ject is to make gold the sole standard as
money. What the advocates of silver
want, the Senator concludes, is a con-
stant and regular supply of money to
meet the legitimate demands of the
country, and they do not want to place
it in the power of the bankers or treas
ury officials to expand or contract the
currency to meet the demands of the
spectators in property or money. The
general tenor of the whole interview is
that the silver men want silver recOg-
nized as a money metal, and they do not
consider the Window bill such a meas

THE SILVER QUESTION.
THE REPUBLICAN CONGRESSMEN
HOLD ANOTHER CAUCUS.
Reports of the Special Silver Committee
Received-The Caucus Stands Two to
One Against the Window Bill.

WASHINGTON, April 21.-The Republic
can members of the House held a caucus
tonight to receive the report of it's com
mittee on the silver question. Chairman
Conger, of the coinage committee, in
presenting the report OF the committee,
recited the concessions which the House
caucus committee had offered to the
Senate committee, told how the negotia-
tions had failed, mainly on the redemp-
tion and national propositions, and
summed up by reporting that the House
committee had withdrawn all it's con-
cessions, and that nine of the fifteen
members had decided to recommend
that the House pass the modified Win
dom bill, as it came from the coinage
committee.
Representative Walker, of Massachu-
sets, another member of the committee,
upheld the committees action. He
maintained that it's bill would secure all
the necessary relief in the way of expan-
sion of the currency, and in substance
reiterated Secretary Windom's objec-
tions to the redemption features of the
Senate bill, pointing out the dangers
underlying the positive requirement that
the treasury notes should be redeemed
in lawful money.
The six members of the caucus com
mittee who refused to accede to the ma
jority bill, favoring the modified Win
dom bill, were Representative Perkins,
of Kansas, Bartine, of Nevada, Wick
ham, of Ohio, Carter, of Montana, Tay-
lor, of Illinois, and Henderson, of Iowa.
They represented the Western sentiment,
and had proposition of their own to
offer, which was submitted by Repre-
sentative Perkins. 1t was set forth as a
compromise Measure, and in fact is a
composite of the Senate and House COM
mittee bills.
Dorsey, of Nebraska, entered solemn
protest against the Eastern restrictive
policy. He prophesied that if the Re-
publican party hesitated to adopt free
coinage or something equivalent, it
would surely be defeated at the polls
this fall.
The discussion ran until half past
eleven, when finally the entire subject
was recommitted to the caucus commit
tee. 1t became evident from several
votes on minor propositions taken dur
ing the debate that the Republican
members are opposed to the Window
bill in the proportion of two to one. The
committee will report to another meet
ing of the caucus Wednesday night
