countries. The die was cast, and, AS
far as the Senate can compel it to do 80,
this country has thrown down the
gauntlet to the entire financial world,
and proposes to make si'vrr the equal

whatever may be the consequences.
Mr.. Blaine has right toicel proud OF
the sentiment which the sr,ion OF the
British Government, in attempting to
ignere the executive branch of this gov
ernment by appealing To the United
States Supreme Cou,t for help, has
evoked. 1t was the one hing needed
to solidify American +, ntlment il, sup
port of the stand taken bv this admins
tration. To-day Congress 's practically
a unit in support of Mr. Blaine, whereas
there had been disposition previously
among Democrats to sneer u, Mr. Blaine's
methods of conducting the B-hriDg Sea
negotiations The sentiment now exist,
ing among Democrats ma, be judged by
the action of Repres-n,stiv. Enloe, of
Tennessee, who has introduced reso
luton in the House fcting the action
of the British Goverihn hn-n, and declaring
that this action is in d..rosation of the
dignity of the United States, and provid.

A SILVER POOL.
Members OF Congress Suspected Of
Specializing With Their Votes.

There are some strong suspicious that
some of the congressman who are 90
actively in favor of the passage of the
free coinage of silver are actuated by
motives that are far from public spirited.
1t has been stated by correspondents Of
several great newspapers at Washington
that positive evidence can be produced
to show that a number of Senators and
Representatives were interested in q
pool which had bought up enormous
quantities of silver when it was quoted
at low prices and is now holding it in
expectation of the rise in price which
must follow the passage of the free.
coinage bill, should it become law.
A committee has been appointed by
Congress to investigate the matter.
They will endeavor to ascertain whether
there is such q pool in existence and
how much silver it may have at com.
mand. The injustice TO the American
people by such combination as this
would be- little less than robbery The
tendency to speculation makes it highly
improbable that the sharks of the money
market would allow the opportunity to
pass without getting corner upon q
commodity which is likely to undergo
such a change in market value in so
short time. The mere existence of
such corner would justify Congress in
taking steps to prevent this outrage on
the people by an artificial interference
with the natural Huctuation in silver
But if it should be discovered that any
member Of either body was member
Of such apool Or was in such relation to
any of its members as to be Influenced
by them it would beea scandal hardly
equaled by the Credit Mobilier or the
back salary grab.
The passage of the free coinage bill
will put enormous profits in the hands
of all holders of silver. The profit of
course will be paid by the people, the
laboring man and the farmer in whose
interest it is supposed to be partly
framed. The government by this bill
will be bound to take the entire out put
OF the silver mines of our own country
and the world and issue to them silver
dollar for every " cents worth of metal
they bring. The difference will be paid
by the people who use the moneys
and even if the free coinage should not
prove as disastrous to our finances az
has been predicted, the steal by which
it threatens to be brought about is
disgrace and should blast with infamy
the men who are urging it forward in
the pretended interest of the poor man

WASHINGTON LETTER.
[From our regular corrsspondens.l

WARRINGTON, D. c., Jan. l6, 1891.
This is certainly the era of political
sensations, and this week has produced
two, the influence of which will be felt
for many day in this country; and
may hap in others closely related to US
in business. The first was the attempt
OF Great Britain, after having been fairly
outwitted in diplomacy by Mr.. Blaine,
to use our Supreme Court for the par.
pose of opposing the executive branch
of our government, proceeding unpar-
alleled and without precedent in the
International diplomatic annals of the
werld, and the second was the passage
Of the free silver coinage bill as substi-
tute for the Senate Financial bill, in
spite of the determined efforts of Sena-
tors Sherman, Allison, Eyarts, Morril,
Aldrich and others whose financial -
gacit. has moulded the policy of the
Republican party on money matters for
more than decade.
1t was evident several days ago that
silver was on top in the Senate, and after
the speech of Senator ingalls, in favor
of free coinage, which was id many re-
spects the ablest and most brilliant ever
delivered by that extraordinarily bril-
liant man, no power on earth could
have stemmed the tide. 1t was all in
vain that Senator German, the Demo
cratic leader, who probably regretted

members Of his party had taken in bring.

The Commissioners are wrestling with
the finance question.

The election bill has been called up
by the Senate and the Democrats are
talking against time to prevent its COM
ing to vote. Senator Faulkner, OF W..
Va, talked all one night, being on the
floor from eleven o'clock till ten in the
morning. Nothing but the adoption Of
the cloture rule to choke off debate will
even enable the bill to be voted upon.
The Senate will probably take the action
to-day provided they can put man in
the chair who has back bone enough to
enforce it.

Advertising is one of the features OF
the times. Every expedient which wit,
pictorial art or literary skill can devise
is employed to attract the attention of
the public. There are so many things
in this busy age to occupy the mind
that he who has no novelty to present
is apt to get no notice. The fellow that
can display the brightest colors, make
the loudest noise or cut the queerest
antics is sure to have hearing with the
crowd till be can show whether bis
goods have any merit or not. The red.
headed Irishman who brings the peo-
pie about him on the public square
every Saturday by jingling COW bell is
a philosopher. He understands human
nature, at least in its relations to sus.
penders, lead pencils. collar buttons and
cotton socks. So it is in every depart
ment. How often you read gracefully
written paragraph on some topic in
which you are especially interested, only
to find that it is ruse of some clever
ouack to tell you that his liver.pad is
the best. The pill maker presents every
person. in the Union with q colored
calendar so that the merits of his COM
pounds will be read every day in tho
year. The enterprising merchant pays
to have his advertisement placed next
to reading matter so that the citizen
shall be compelled to think of him and
his wares once week whether he wants
to or not. The lecturer displays his
fiattering lithograph in every shop win
window, and even the clergyman 80 far
conforms to the world as to announce
in the Saturday papers the seductively
sensational title under which he will
hold forth on the Sabbath. A Cincin-
natl pastor announced last Saturday that
he would preach on the mysterious text

Open Letter from the w. C. r.
U. to Mr.. J. N. Horner.
J. M. HoRNER, ESQ.,, DEAR SIR:
By unanimous vote of the w. G.
I. U. at our last meeting, I was
authorized to write to you in SUBJ
stance as follows:
We heartily thank you for your
vigorous and manly protests in the
daily papers, against the mon
strous iniquity of liquor selling
which is making such havoc in our
midst, and rejoice that there is at
least one man on these islands who
has the courage of his convictions,
and is ready to speak his mind on
this subject irrespective of conse-
quences. s h
Assuredly, the most pressing
question of the day Is, how shall
We save the flower of..our youth,
foreign aud Hawaiians, from be-
coming the prey of the merciless
drunkard maker? By what possi-
bic means shall we compass the
overthrow of the vile liquor ga
looms that confront us IN every
street corner2 Your timely words
are doing much toward bringing
such interrogations as these be-
fore the public, and thus Fastening
the glad day when prohibition
shall become the law Of the land.
These bottles of gin are as danger
GUS to society as though they
were poniards IN the hand of the
midnight assassin.
1.-The mills OF God grind slowly,
But they grind exceeding small"
We fully endorse your earnest
utterances as to its being the first
duty of all protesting Christians
and temperance people to unite
their votes and influence in order
to abolish this dreadful rum traffic,
and thus remove the thousand and
one temptations which are placed
IN the path of every man who
walks our streets.
We wish you God speed in all
your efforts toward this end, and
trust you will continue to agitate
the subject until the pressure of
public opinion shall be so strong
against the liquor dealer that he
shall be unable to endure his posi-
ton. thse sfff - ~
May the Almighty hasten the
time when this conscienceless
traffic shall disappear entirely from
our land, and with it the demorali-
zation, bloodshed and ruin which it
is causing. Yours sincerely,

to Have Been Written in Washington.
Special Cable Dispatch to The Evening Star.
LONDON. April 1.-The breach Of promise
case of Evlyn against Huriburt was continued
before Nix. Justice Cave and special jury to-
day.
At the opening Sir Richard Webster, the at
torney general handed the courtcertain letters
dated Washington, d. c., and alleged to be in the
handwriting of Wilfred Murray. In answer to
query by Dir. Justice Cave Sir Richard said
that the object of Offering the letters in EVIL
dence was show that they were written by the
same person who wrote the letters to the plain
tiff. The defendant then produced q sign writ
ten by himself for comparison.
Timothy ODonnen, hall porter at the Or
leans Club, of which AIR. HurlbIrt is q member,
was then sworn. He said that he never knew
that gentleman under any other name than that
of Hurlburt that the defendant often had WIS.,
its from a full-faced. military looking man,
giving the name of Rolands or Rawlins, and
who frequently wrote letters on club paper.
Mr.. Hurlburt was again placed In the witness
box and cross-cxamineI. He admitted that
while lodging in st. James place, South Ken
sington, i'll 1888, he had in his possession Q
number of indecent pictures, but explained
that they belonged to a friend not now living.
The plaintiff was then recalled and asked as
to the brother-in-law who had sent her money
| to maintain her child. The attorney general
then proceeded to sum up, describing the action
as an abominable conspiracy which the defend
ants evidence had exposed.
At the conclusion of the attorney general g
remarks Mr.. Candy OF counsel for the plaintiff
rose to address the court and speaking
when an adjournment was taken for the day.
