The conflict is still raging between
the secretary of the treasury and the
senate. 1t is strange that this august
body of legislators should require such
a coinage Of silver as will eventually
drain the treasury of gold, and can
only result, as Mr.. Window says, in
the degradation of the American dol
Jar. Sufficient silver to supply the
circulating medium in our own coun-
tIy is all that is desired, and any more
will only give Wall street the oppor-
tunity of causing another financial
panic.

APPEAL TO THE cRUEI, cz.p

PHILADELPHIA, April 24.-At q meet
ing of the Siberian Exile Petition Associ-
alton in this city, George Kennan, the
traveller, said the petition promised to be
one OF the largest ever presented to any
ruler. He did not anticipate it would
have any effect in making the czar ac-
quainted with any new facts, but by
showing the intense feeling abroad In re-
latlon to the unfortunate txiles, it would
exert great moral effect.

The editor of the New York Times
considers it an insult to the farmers of
the country in retaining the tariff on
wool in their name. AS Mr.. Jones
knowledge of wool consists only in
knowing how to manipulate it over the

is to allow fock-masters attend to their
own business.

Nihilism is creeping close to the
car, and Prince Constantine has writ
ten a poem in which he avows his
sympathy with the liberal sentiment
of the advanced minds of Russia. An
armed soldiery may be very powerful
in keeping down riots and driving ex-
lies to Siberia, but the spirit of free
dom is permeating all classes in the
great empire, and this cannot be shot
to death or suffocated in a Kara

Not by anything she drank or took, but
by bad blood. Is it any wonder she

only another name for bad blood. A man

we call it" blues"

In crowd of half dozen men standing
in front of a well-known saloon yesterday

in former years raked in MANY a jack pot
in this CITY, and was one of the few who
became rich by gambling. Speaking of the
city before gambling was broken up, the
man, recently returned, said:

ton, Strike Bonanza.
From the Philadelphia Inquirer.
LAwRENCEBURG, IND. Aug. SIT is not
often that one who has worked for all his
life on farm comes into possession of
s4,000,0 600 in day, and yet such an event is
soon to happen to a family living at SUI
man in this state. In 1776 Mary Bentley of
New York city, leased a tract of land there
to the government for ninety-nine years.
The land was on the outskirts of the CITY,
but as years rolled by and the city began its
marvellous growth the tract was surrounded
by colossal palaces of trade and mansions.
The government seeing a chance to pofit =,
sub-leased the ground 70 many different
persons, and it has been built on and i'm
proved, and lying in the heart of the city
its immense value can easily be understood
IL 1875 the lease expired, and no one ap-
pearing to cl i'm the property, legal fight
of immense proportions was begun between
the sub-leasers and the government; promi-
nent among the former were the heirs of the
older Cornelius Vanderbilt.
The government was successful and
gained possession of the property, and t
the same time the heirs of the origiIa Lessor
began to assert their rights, and after
another legal battle they were sustained
and the property held for them After
years of hunting for the unknown heirs
they have all been found, and the property
ordered sold and The money distributed.
The Boldrey family, of Sunman, of whom
there are five, are among these heirs, Mary
Bentley being their great-grandm
ana they have been notified by their at
torney in New York city that the di>trlbu-
ton will soon be made and that their share
will be $4,000, 900 apiece. They are all good,
honest, hard working citizens.

The New Siberian Rail way.
From London EnQinee rino.

Although the special committee appointed
by the Russian government to devise a
scheme for the construction of the Siberian
railway has presented its report, it does not
follow that the project will be rapidly taken
in hand. AS usual In such cases, a number
of rival schemes are being advocated, and
the one adopted, which is the result of
compromise in committee, by no means en-
joys the complete favor of the Russian gov
eminent. Moreover, the minister of finance
has yet to formulate scheme for provid-
ing the funds, SO that any commencement
of the undertaking for some months to
come is not Co be expected. The route Sc
lected will be 4,375 miles in length, and the
cost is estimated at 250,000,000 roubles,
which, at the present rate OF exchange, is
equal to about 927, IT'S, 900. Full details of
the estimate, and what it actually includes,
have not been published yet, so that it is
impossible to cIiticise these figures; but
there is no reas6h why the Siberian line
should not be constructed at an extremely
moderate figure 1.-The country, almost the
entire distance, isoH tat and devoid of vide
river crossings climber is plentiful, and
the Ural rolling mills ought to supply the
rails tolerably cheap. it is already settled
that the line is to be constructed through
out by the government, in accordance with
the new policy Of placing the railway
system of Russia under state control
With regard to the heavy sum
required for the undertaking, although the
minister of finance, State Secretary Wish
nigradsky, has not officially formulated any
definite scheme, it is understood that the
amount will be raised in Russia itself by
series of internal loans issued as occasion
requires This, however, will net take
place until the conversion Of the out or loans
is complete. 1t should be added that
although the general scheme for the Sibe-
rian railway is yet to be accepted and
sanctioned by the government, the author
tiles are already at work on an initial
portion of the undertaking line from
Ufa to Zlataoust, in continuation of the
railway from Samara, on the Volga, to
Ufa, at the foot of the Urals, being in real
ity first section Of the great Siberian
trunk railway.
