An Attempt to Swim the whirlpool
Rapids.

Rapids.
NIAGARA FALLS, July 4th.--John l..
Soules, of Muskegon, Mich, to-day at
tempted to swim the whirlpool rapids
Samuel Smith, of Louiston, n. Y, was to
have gone through with him in a rowbcat
but hunked. Many hundreds of people
were on the bridges and the bank. Soules
entered the water at BIS P. NJ. near the
cantilever bridge, on the Canadian side
clad in wool shirt and trunks and cork
vest.
At 800 he came around the abutments
of the bridge and was tossed like cork in
the volume of water which there forces
itself through the gorge. When he es-
capped this current he had comparatively
ar easy time to the railway suspension
bridge, at which point the swift current
once more caught him aud swept him
under the bridge like a flash.
Below this bridge there are two large
rocks. A breaker carried him over one
and the spectators expected to see him
dashed against the other and killed. Luck
favored him, however. The current swung
him partially around, and he pushed away
from the rock with his hand. Then another
large breaker caused him to turn a sum-
mersault, submerging him for short time
and then keeping him stationary in an
eddy The spectators thought he was gone.
but he soon swan out, and when near the
whirlpool rapids of the incline railway was
washed into the eddy near the shore.
With the assistance of several spectators
he scrambled cut on the rocks in greatly
exhausted condition. He had q cut on his
left foot and g terrible gashin his leg above
the knee, which disabled him so that he
could not walk. These injuries he received
when he was dashed against a big rock.
He said, however, he would continue his
trip through the whirlpool If bis manager
desired, but the latter refused. II is fortu.

THE SILVER BILL.
Senator stewart Expresses His Views on
the Subject.

Senator stewart Expresses His Views on
the Subject.
WASHINGTON, July 4th.-In conversation
with Senator Stewart tonight, a California
Associated Press agent learned that there is
much dissatisfaction among the Senators
over the appointments Of Senator Sherman
as Chairman of the Conference Committee
on the silver bill. Hardly another choice
could have been made that would have
been so dist8steful to the Western and
Southern Senators, as Sherman is regarded
as gold contractionist of the most pro-
nounced type. Senator Stewart is evi.
IDENTIFY fearful that Sherman, as Chairman
of the committee. may influence the men,
bers, and surreptitiously secure an advan-
tage in some way. Sherman's fine Italian
hand did some very nice work of this kind
in securing the demonstration of silver in
1873, and the Nevada Senator has good
reason to be suspicious of the New York
gold bugs.
The Western Senators have given notice
that if the right kind of bill is not re-
ported by the Conference Committee, they
will again endeavor to pass free coinage
bill by lacking it on the tariff bill.
do You see the point?" asked Senator
Stewart, as his eyes twinkled.
Eyes, see the point" replied the Cali
fornia Associated Press correspondent
You mean to pass good silver bill, or
else the tariff bill must be sacrificed. But,
if understand the sentiment of the West
ern people, they would hardly agree to the
programme"
"Oh, yes, they would. rather than have
the gold bugs victorious. The tariff bill is
important. but the silver question is of far
greater importance to the Western coun-
try"
"But the silver bill would not be GER
name to the bill before the Senate That is
to say. it would be foreign to the provisions
of the tariff bill, and point of order
might be made against such proposition,
might it not?"
No, sir" said Senator Stewart, "such a
point of order would not be sustained 1t
would only apply 10 the general appropria-
ton bills. In bills of this latter character
matter not germane cannot. be appended"
Senator Stewart spoke as though this
plan was already agreed upon by the silver
men, or al any rate they had agreed to pro-
mitigate the programme, perhaps in order
to influence conference committees.
1t seems hardly probable that many Sem
ators would be willing to sacrifice the tariff
bill because they failed to secure the right
kind of silver legislation, but Senator Stew
arr was very ciupudiiC III MS utCldIdllUllS
tonight, and it may be he speaks
by authority, and after an agreement
among the extreme silver Senators.
However, it is hardly probable that they
will be compelled to resort to such course.
1t is believed that the Conference Commit
tee will report bill for the coin
age of four and half million ounces
per month, the elimination OF the bullion
redemption feature, and make certificates a
legal tender, and such bill would without
doubt pass both Houses and receive the
signature of the President. This is the
general impression here
