New HAVEN, Conn.,, June 24.-The
one hundred and ninety-frst commence
ment of Yale university was observed
today at Center church. Degrees were

Glickman, of Chippewa Falls, Wis.
At the Yale alumni dinner this after
noon among the speakers was Secretary
Noble. President Dwight, in introduce
ing Ricardo Trumbull OF Chile, who is in
this country representing the congress
party of Chile, said: ''He is member
of the warlike family of Trumbull, who
gave good account of themselves in rev.
olutionary days."
Trumbull said among other things, "At
home we are now in the throes of civil
war. For sixty years there never has
been revolution, but today there is in
that once happy country distrust and
danger. By the Vaccinations of corrupt
men, who plotted while we slept, there
are now war clouds in the sky. These
men unblushingly demand bribes.
They are men who have shut
up the courts and set aside
the law. know. that we in our own
struggle will have the warm support of
Yale, for Yale men are lovers of liberty.
We want government something like
that of the New England states. We
believe that you are with us in our
struggle for the right" The outburst OF
applause which followed Trumbull's.
speech ratified the windows of the old
Alumni hall, continuing two or three
minutes.

OTHER COMMENCEMENrs.

Chief j ustice Fuller Makes an Address
Before the Harvard Alumni.
BosToN, June 24.-The weather for
commencement day at Harvard was per-
feet, and the time-honored observances
of the day were carried out with the
same spirit and precision as in former
years. Governor Russell, Lieutenant
Governor Hale and the members of the
governors staff were escorted from Bos-
ton by the National Lancers, reaching
MASSACHUSETTS, hall at 10 o'clock, where
President Elliott was in waiting to re-
ceive them. Among other invited guests
was Chief Justice Fuller, of the United
States supreme court. Within the thea
ter was gathered the brilliant audience
which always assemblies to applaud the
graduates and listen to the orations OF
their representatives.
The following alumni officers were
elected for the ensuing year: President,
Leverett saltonstall, of Newton; vice
presidents, Horace Davis, of San Fran
cisco, Robert Lincoln, of Chicago, Henry
S. Huidekoper, of Philadelphia; treas
bridge; secretary, Henry Parkman, OF
Boston.
At the alumni dinner tonight, Presi-
dent Elliott, Governor Russell and Chief
Justice Fuller delivered addresses. The
latter spoke OF the wisdom of the trainers
of the constitution in declining to confer
political power upon the judiciary de-
partment of the United States. Nothing
has done more to commend that depart
ment to the confidence and respect OF
the people than it's scrupulous absti-
nence from purely political questions.

MATTER OF POLICY.
SHALL THE COINAGE OF STANDARD
SILVER DOLLARS CEASE?
Tomorrow's Meeting of the Cabinet Is
Called to Discuss the Question-The
Department Receives Suggestions.

WASHINGTON, June 24.--It is stated on
the best authority that the only ques-
tion to be considered by the cabinet at
Fridays meeting is whether the coinage
of standard silver dollars shall continue
after the first proximo, and data on that
subject is now being prepared at the
treasury department. A great many
communications on the subject have
been received, large majority of which
favor the proposition. The only ones so
far opposing it are certain New York
bankers. The prevailing sentiment with
the leading treasury officials is that the
proposition will be adopted.
IL is understood that the question of
the extension of the four and half per
cent. loan will be disposed of next
month. The offers so far received in re-
sponse to Secretary Fosters suggestions
for an extension represent only about
$4,000, 900 of the bonds. A prominent
treasury official said today that there is
not the least doubt of the governments
aoility to meet all its obligations during
the coming fiscal year.

PHILADELPHIA. June 24.-The inyesti-
cation committee of the council this
afternoon examined Receiver Yardslee.
of the Keystone National bank, and he
identified 2516 shares OF the alleged over

were merely straw men, whose names
were used when the stock was pledged
to borrow money on. Wanamaker's
name does not appear ON the stock
ledger as the owner of stock. Yardley

the fraudulent stock said to have been
placed in Wanamaker's hands during

the club declares that 6 man to be eligible to membership must be "the author of a published book proper to literature" or to have 8 recognized position in other kinds of dis tinctly literary work" The women in- vited as guests of the club were those on- ly whose work would entitle them to membership if they were men. Names were procured from authors, editors and publishers, and invitations sent to about two hundred and thirty women in all parts of the country. A published list ot these names with titles of their best known or most valuable books and articles, is of much interest as giving an idea of the ex- tent of the ambition and success of women in this line of endeavor These are the women who have won assured po- sitions, some of whom can sit at home and "hear the nations passing them far-off;;" their books are eagerly read, and their publishers are generous. Beyond these are multitude of struggling ones, correspondents, reporters, scriblers of all kinds. They would not be urged to enjoy the hospitality of the Authors club, but many of them are doing careful and earnest work, of a temporary value at least. There are, too, as many aspiring but mistaken ones, who even in disap- pointment and failure can hardly be made to see the error of their chosen ways. The pen is fascinating but trescherous tool; it invites to its use; it suggests wonderful possibilities; it calls up beautiful visions, and then turns 8 poisoned point against the careless or unworthy hand.
 It would be interesting to know how many American women have chosen liter ature as profession, or as pastime, or an occasinal eIpedient for replenishing their pocketbooks. The number would probably be astonishingly large, and more over is daily growing larger. HILARY.
