INDIANAPOLIS, Nov. ia new and en-
tirely unexpected difficulty was devel-
oped wednesday in the Farmers ALI
ance when the details of secret meeting
which was held sometime between mid
night and morning reached the delegates
in attendance. Under the constitution of
the Alliance the travelling expenses of
delegates to and from the place of meet
ing and hotel bills during the convention
are to be paid out OF the treasury of the
Supreme council. At conference of the
leaders Tuesday night the report of the
treasurer was submitted in advance OF lis
presentation TO the council and the d s.
covery was made that there is not enough
money in the treasury to defray the ex-
penses of the meeting.
Why the Cash Is Scarce.
The membership has decreased consid-
erably during the year. and. as many of
the paying members have dropped out, all
of the Alliances are short in payment of
the funds charged against them aud the
total deficiency amounts, it is said, to sew
eral thousand dollars. The falling off of
membership in the northwest is said to
be fully so per cent. When this condition
was made apparent motion was offe ed
to cut the delegations in two, as this
would leave the supreme council under
obligations to meet but one-half of the ex-
pense which would otherwise be saddled
upon 1t But there's big kick against this.
as many of the delegates are a good deal
shorter of funds than the treasurer.
Yesterdays Proceedings in Brief.
Yesterdays meeting of the council was
devoted to much talk over a few resolu-
tions offered, and VIII CHI it was attempted
to press to adoption. 1t is said that one
placing the council squarely on the SUBJ
treasury platform was adopted Another
that was urged for immediate adoption
was to repudiate the Ocala utterance on
government ownership of railways, etc.
which provides for said ownership if prac-
ticable. and declare for absolute owner

No Cutting Down Representation.
An attempt to cut down the representa-
tion to fit the funds met vociferous and
robust opposition and was defeated A
committee was appointed to confer with
the anti-sub-treasury people, and con-
ference was held, but so far as known
now no conclusion was reached. A reso-
luton looking to a com bine with the Peo-
pies party was init oduced and went to
committee. The national executive COM
mittee of the Peoples party was still in
session behind closed doors, but it devel-
oped that the terms of proposition for
union with the Alliance had been agreed
upon and placed in writing.

New YORK, Nov. l9.-Iu brief after
dinner talk Tuesday night, Mr. Chauncey
NJ Depew said:
We fear the force of socialism, We dread the
horrors of ANARCHY! but they do not grow from
the spouting dem Igogues. Both come from
real conditions, and these are conditions
which men of wea tn have to meet or make
worse Every EN- Jloyer who creates an i'm
preston in the minds of his employees that he
is a master and they are slaves is teacher of
socialism. Any man who accumulates an
enormous fortune and uses his wealth solely
for his own enjoym mt does more to propagate
anarchy than all the Mosts and all the men
hung at Chicago.

ALL THE SILVER MEN WANT
1t Is Only Free Coinage. Which Seems To
BE the Difficulty.

1t Is Only Free Coinage. winch Seems To
BE the Difficulty.
All we ask of the government is that they
will coin our silver as they did before 1873 -Id
they authorized to do Our civilization
was brought into existence by the discovery of
gold and silver in Mexico and South America,
and when this age was placed above all others,
when it had just enough gold and silver in
circulation to keep population and business.
that was the age of all ages. But it was the
weakness of man that robbed US and impeded
the progress of civilization.
No Surplus of Silver.
The senator concluded his speech as fol-
lows:
They tell us the United States would be
flooded with silver if its coinage We're free and
unlimited. From whence would il come?
Where is the surplus of silver? Ii doesn't ex-
list. They have no more silver in Europe than
they need for exchange among the people. II
the United States should buy silver all other
nations would follow. Where is this silver
coming from: 1t cannot come from Europe or
from Asia. viii it come from the mines? 1t
is doubtful if sufficient could be obtained from
them to meet the demand for any considerable
length of time.
Liked the Senator's Remarks.
Senator Stewards remarks were well
received, and when be conluded some one
proposed three cheers and a tiger for the
distinguished gentleman. 1t was given
with will. 1t was resolved that 100 coo
copies of the speech be printed and circu-
lated throughout the country. Senator
Stewart was followed by Governor Routt.
of Colorado, who welcomed the delegates
to Denver. Letters of regret were read
from prominent men all over the coun-
try, and at 8 p m. adjournment was taken

DIRECT TAX PAPERS

To Be Placed i'm the Butler Mansion for
Inspection.
In connection with the settlement of claims
for refund of the direct tax, provided for by
the late Congress, the Treasury Department
will afford to an agent of each of the South
ern States by whose individual citizens this
tax was paid full opportunity to inspect the
very voluminous records, stubs, etc., now in
possession of the Department. For this pur-
pose it is intended to place these records and
documents in the old Butler mansion, recently
purchased for Government uses, where they
will be arranged for convenient examina-
ton by duly authorized agents from the
several States interested. This course is
pursued because it is deemed impracticable
to subject the papers to the great wear and
tear and danger Of extraction or improper
use which would result from indiscriminate
handling by large numbers of irresponsible
people.
California's request for settlement of its
claim for refund of direct tax paid to the
United States during the War of the Re-
bellion was received at the Treasury Depart
ment yesterday. After making certain de-
ductions in settlement of offsets, the State
will receive 1922, ,955.41.
