Dimetalllsm.

A cablegram in yesterdays papers an
nounced that on motion to provide for
another conference international. we sup
pose, TO consider the policy of adopting
. bimetallic currency, the British House
of Commons divided on Friday last--S3 to
e7-s3 in the affirmative 10 81 in the mega
tive. 1t is evident that the bimetallists in
England have grown wonderfully IN
strength during the last twelve years. We
do not know how the large number of alb
sent members of the House of Commons
would have voted had they been present
and 1t would not be profitable to indulge
in surmises on that point. We take 1t
for granted, however, that the number
of members who voted in favor Of another
conference 10 consider the practicability
and desirability of establishing double
standard in England Cor in the WORLD was
not larger in proportion to the number
voting than would have been the proportion
voting in full house for new conference.
This news reached this country Just in
time to strengthen the hands of the advo-
Gates OF the free coinage of silver, and to
defeat Secretary WNDom's effort TO convert
all the silver dollars in the United
States into silver bullion. We do not
charge that Mr.. WINDOW really desires
thus to wrong the people, but we
do contend that such would be the natural
consequence of the adoption of his policy.
IN fact, Mr.. WINDOW stated on Friday last
before the Senate Republican Silver Com
mittee that his reason for advocating the
redemption in bullion of the certif-
Gates issued for the purchase of bullion
was that it would make the certificates
more valuable. This is a most illogical
conclusion. Such an argument would be
allowable if il were mere commodity de-
posted in the Government vaults upon
which certificates have been issued; but it
ts not o sound argument in the case of sill
yer, which is something more aud better
than simple commodity.
We have not been able to see that any
good result would follow the adoption of
efr. WNDoM's silver bill.
In looking into this subject yesterday we
came across Mr.. HAYEs's message vetoing
the silver bin as it passed the twohouses of
Congress in February, 1878. This was
Twelve years ago. In that message Mr..
HAYES followed the example of the mono
metallists in Congress and predicted that
ruinous results would succeed the adop-
ton Of bimetallic currency. Here is one
Of his predictions
'The right to pay duties in silver or in
certificates for silver deposits will, when
they are issued in sufficient amount to cir
culate, put an end to the receipt of revenue
IN gold. and thus compel the payment of
silver for both the principal and interest of
the public debt"
What prophet. The record shows that
the Democratic members of Congress from
Virginia were not misled by MIR. HAYEs's

DISAPPOINTED NORFOLK.
All the Pan-American Preparations Go
for Naught.

Correspondence OF the Richmond Dispatch.l
NoRroLK, Va. April 10, 1890.
There was great disappointment in Nor
folk to-day. The Pan-Americans didn't
arrive, and the flying flags, the. decorated
buildings, the imposing arch OF welcome,
ships full of bunting, marine battalion and
naval officers in full reglmentals, and all
other paraphernalia of rejoicing, went for
naught. However, il is now said the dis
tinguished visitors viii be along possibly
tomorrow or on Monday; but should they
come, the extensive programme arranged
for the reception and entertainment to-day
will hardly be carried out. Visitors In the
city to-day could almost imagine another
Yorktown celebration ON the streets OF
Norfolk.
II was chilly and frosty this morning,
but the truckers report little or no injury

own controlling interest in both the hotel
and the transportation companies. As long as
the Northern facIhc, as the park association,
maintains its hotels at the upper and lower
geyser basins in such shape that only few per-
sons can be lodged there and these few only
uncomfortably, 1t has no business as a railroad
and stage company, to bring to the park and
crowd into these rattletraps several times the
number OF tourists that can well be accom-
modsted. Tho association should be required
as speedily as possible to erect a large and
comfortable hotel at the upper basin. The
substitute for the one at the lower basin should
not be built at that point, where there is moth
ing in the world TO see. 1t is understood that
a new hotel is to be erected near the Foun-
tain and Paint Pots, with Excelsior not far
away. This is an excellent plan, and 1t will re-

Mary Anderson Has Retired.

From the Baltimore Sun.
MIR. Joseph Anderson. the brother Of Mary
Anderson, Is registered at the Albion Hotel
with his wife. who is the daughter of Mr. Law
renee Barrett. He said that in letter which
he received from his sister several days ago she
wrote that she is at present enjoying excellent
health at Tunbridge Wells, in Kent England,
where she is with her husband, F. Antonio
Navarro. Il do not think my sister will ever
60 on the stage again" said he. 1.-THE strain
was too great ON her. 1t is wonderful how she
endured it. She always arose about o'clock
IN the morning to attend church; then came
break fast and rehearsals for three or four hours
and In the afternoon scores Of callers; then the
evening performance, and bed seldom before 1
O'Clock IN the morning. Her health was so
much impaired that it was impossible for her
to go on and she was compelled to retire. Z"
Mr.. Anderson will join Booth and Barrett's
company on It's arrival in Baltimore.
