FREE COINAGE.

Few free coinage enthusiasts stop to
consider what absolute free coinage
means. Free coinage would not make
it one whit easier for the poor man to
obtain a dollar. Money would be no
easier; times would be no better. In
stead of the Government making sufii.
cient out Of the coinage, as under the
present system, to pay large proper
ton Of mint expenses or to swell other
funds, the Government would be CON-
PEELED to appropriate money for that
specificpurpose. In other words, the peo-
pie would be compelled to pay for free
coinage, whereas the present system of
coinage pays for itself. The difference
between the bullion value of = coin and
its current value is known as "seignior.
age" All CONS contain an alloy-more
or less. This takes the place of the vir-
gin metal and, being cheaper, makes
the "scigniorage," or profit. accruing to
the Government from coinage. Last
year the '-seigniorage" amounted to
sl9. 00o, 900. Under free coinage this
handsome credit would be wiped out
and the people would be called upon to
pay for their "free" coinage. 1t is q
delusion and . snare.

surprise to see her stand by the side OF
her son and her beautiful young daugh

A su@Ay Moh~tHs RIOT
ITALIAN WORkMEN ASSAULTED
BY INFATUATED
Americans, Who Were Crazy Drunk-One
Italian Fatally Cut, and Others Seri-
Dusty Wounded and Routed.

ST. Louis, Mo-, June 22.-A race riot be-
tween laborers employed by Contractor
WOrkley at Henning's camp at Chain of
Rocks some distance up the river occurred
between l and o'clock Sunday morning
i'll which one italian was daL gerously
stabbed, twenty-five of his fellow country
| men driven from their camp and their val
uableS and money contiscated by the gang
of American laborers making the attack.
The riot was caused by the advent into the
camp of lot of Italian labOrers and the re-
port that Contractor Worl1ley had gone to
Chicago for more. All day Saturday the
feeling of revolt against the employment of
Italian labor had been gaining strength and
! bitterness. As soon as tine iaborers We're
paid off in the evening they congregated as
usual, at a saloon just outside the city
limits, where bad whisky is dealt out to
| men who spend their. time gambling away
their hard-earned money.
About l o'clock Sunday morning the
gambling party broke up and sixty or more
lnen, crazy drunk, started back for their
sleeping quarters. On their way over. a
man named William r. Blair, it is alleged,
sprang the idea of driving out the dagoes. "
Ii took like wild-fire, and with muttered
curses against the Italians the drunken
mob hurried toward camp. The dagoes !"
This was the cry with which the attack be-
gan on the slcepers in the cabins. The

the hated foreigners, armed with sticks,
clubs, knives and whatever else they could
lay their hands upon. The fight did not
last long.
The Italians were at Il great disadvan-
tage, and after brief resistance they fed.
leaving behind them all their belongings.
They carried away one of their comrades,
named Catalize Francisco, dangerously
wounded by cut in the breast, which
threatens to result fatally The italians
made their way to this city, where they re
ported the matter to the police, and Fran
cisco was taken to the city dispensary,
where his wounds were dressed. At camp
their departure was followed by scene of
piilage. The valises, bundles and packages
We're broken open and the contents taken
possession of
The police at once began rigid investi-
cation, and the following arrests We're
made: Edward Manley, John Jones, Mich
ael Cahill, William Blair, William Brooks,
Fred Reader and John Spiller These men
profess ignorance of the attack upon the
Italians, and say they were awakened by
the commotion and merely aided in driving
from camp the disturberS OF their slumbers.
One OF the assaulted parties, however, has
identified two of the men arrested.o
italian Consul Dominic Genniochoici is
indignant over the attack upon his country
men, and viii doubtless enter into prelim-
mary correspondence with his government.
He has demanded that Chief of Police Har-
rigan give protection for Italians, and also
immediate official Investigation of the riot.
