The silver Question,

One of the hardest-fought battles of
the congress which expired March 4 last
was over the matter of the free coinage
OF silver. Outside it was Wall street and
eastern capitalists against the mining
states and the Farmers alliance. Mr..
Cleveland put himself on record as OBJ
posed to free c~oinage-other leading
democrats favor it. Other parties are as
much divided, and it promises to be an
ugly question for the politicians to
handle in harmony. However this agi-
tation may result the people will find
that gold, silver, and paper dollars all
have the same purchasing power when
applied to the purchase of a ticket over
"The Burlington" and republicans.

Lnwxer Kneass, saaaen peath.

Christian Kneass a prominent Phila-
delphia lawyer died suddenly just be-
fore midnight Monday in room No. SO,
at the Continental Hotel, Philadelphia.
Mr.. Kneass has for some years past
visited Helmbold's Pharmacy nearly
every day, and has had several severe
attacks Of heart failure while in the
drug store, but the prompt action of the
druggist in charge has heretofore pre-
vented disastrous results. When he
called Monday he complained of feel
ing badly. He breathed with great
difficulty, and seemed to be greatly OPP
pressed by the heat. He remained per-
fectly quiet, but became worse every
moment, and just before midnight his
condition became alarming. A doctor
was sent for, and it was at once decided
to take him to room in the hotel, Two
sturdy porters carried him toroom No
SO, where he died before the physician
arrived.

January It'll, 1891. II had also been
stamped SO heavily that the stamp cut
through the paper Mr. Mckee was
then called and handed the receipt.
81 don't think that is my signature
he said, after a close examination. AS
to the stamp, I've stamped great many
receipts, but don't think eyercut one
like this"
"Do you say that is not your sigma
ture :" asked Mr.. Hayes.
II do; | never signed that name"
Wilson was also held in 5000 bail for
appearance at the court Of general SEES
sions.
THIS CHARGE WAS NOT SUSTAINED.
The case against Paul Ward, charged
with registering illegally in the First
district, Eleventh ward, which had been
postponed until Tuesday, came near
being put off again on account of the
absence of his counsel, Henry c. Tur-
ner. Finally, Mr.. Ward decided to be
his own counsel and the case went on.
His registration was proved by Allen
Curlett, the registration officer, who said
that no objection was interposed at the
time.
The specific charge against Ward was
registering illegally, "inasmuch as he
had no right to register, having been re-
turned on the error list for taxes of
1880" Collector Mckee was called to
testify on this point, and on opening
his big tax book showed by the entry
that instead Of having been returned as
an error for his 1899 tax, Ward paid the
tax for that year. The payment was
made on February LIST, 1890.
This knocked the bottom out of the
| case, but Letter-carrier Jonathan Is.
Roberts, at whose instance the warrant
for Wards arrest was issued, was called
to give the reason for his action. He
said he had made copy of the assess
ment list for 1889 and found Wards
name marked as an error. lie then, in
order to make sure, got certified copy
from the clerk of the peace and found
that it also had Wards name marked
as an error.
"There is nothing in this case" said
Judge Ball. "Hhe record shows that
the accused paid his tax for 1899 and
was not returned as an error"
Ward was then discharged
Counselor Turner arrived before the
hearing was over, having been sent for
and found his client making good de
fence. He explained his absence by thu
excuse that he had "got the date mixed
up" The court hoped he would bt
more careful about his dates, as thest
delays are very inconvenient to princi
pals and witnesses in the cases.

PHILADELPHIA, May 3l,-There were
no startling developments In the city
treasury scandal to-day Bardsley spent
a quiet day in Jail, being still confined
in the hospital department. He seldom
speaks to his prison nurse and at inter
walls, being overcome with grief, he
buries his head in his pillow ana weeps.
While he was thus brooding over his
troubles clergymen throughout the city
were preaching lessons fromthe recent
disclosures.
A story leaked out to-day that Bards-
ley never had the legal right TO vote and
that his official life was passed without
the prerequisite that entities foreigners
to say on election day or to the dis
tinction of becoming representatives of
political party Twenty years ago,
when he was first elected to councils,
l3ardsley lived in the Seventh ward.
The then window book man, Bernard
j. Matthews, said to-day that he remem-
bers at that time successfully challeng-
| ing Bardsley's right to vote. The new
councilman answered to the challenge;
EDO you mean to insult me n
NO was the reply, "but before you
| vote here you must show that you have
the right to do so
Matthews says Bardsley went away
saying that he would return with his
| papers, but lie did not do so.
| The division was cut before the next
| election, throwing Bardsley's endin the
new one, and soon after he moved ur
town, bobbing up screnely in councils
again as member from the Twenty,
eighth ward.
Luke keegan, who was judge Of
the old division, is Of the impression that
Bardsley did return on the occasion Of
being challenged and voted on hi
fathers naturalization papers, but Mr.
Matthews holds that he did not. Johr
Bardsley's father emigrated from Eng
| land while the lad was very young.

CINCINNATI, June 2.-There was an
energetic electric storm yesterday after
noon and last night in this city and
Covington, accompanied by a severe
gale The telegraph wires were more
or less useless for several hours and
1900 telephones were burned out. The
chief losers, however, is the Cincinnati
Electric Light Company. Like all
other electric light plants, it is sup
piled with lightning arresters to be
cut in when storm approaches,
but in some way the lightning found
its way behind the place occupied by
the lightning arrester and in an instant
this copper Of $4,000 dynamo was fused
and the lights dependent on this
dynamo were all extinguished. In Gov
ington the lightning struck in many
places, one being the clock in Iattoysius
Catholic church steeple. The clock was
wrecked, but the sterplc was not in
jured Quite number Of fine shade
trees were uprooted by the wind, but
there were no injuries to person.
