John Robinson's ever-popular and ever

such important accessions and aug

not only materially strengthened their

largely added to their already vast mem

The Republican silver Plank.


The silver plank in the platform is not
what the people want, but it is the most
complete declaration in favor of the use
of silver as money that has been found
in any platform since the question has
been one to be considered in national
politics. 1t is an outspoken declaration
in favor Of the double standard and will
result in the ultimate use of silver on
terms Of perfect equality as to mintage
and legal tender functions with gold.
1t contains an unequivocal declaration in
favor Of perfect equality Of gold and
silver dollars and this declaration IS in
prefect accord with the views of silver
men on the question. We have never
wanted nor would we have a silver dollar
that was not equal in its pnrchaaing
power to the gold dollar, and the Oft re-
| peated statement that we desired q cheap
dollar is not true. / have no doubt that
| the Democratic national convention will
adopt provision quite as liberal, and
if it does we may consider the United
| States as fully committed to bi-metalism
and that it will be simply a question OF
! detail as to how it shall be secured. The
contest has not been one for free coinage
simply but in reality for bi7metalllsm
and to prevent the United States from
being placed on the gold standard. 1t is
a triumph that will help the advocates
| Of bi-metalism throughout the world

DR.. Baker Acquitted.

ABINGToN, Va, March 8.-The cele-
brated case Of the commonwealth against
DR.. John A. p. Baker for the murder Of
his wife by poison has closed, and the
prisoner breathes once more the air Of
freedom. DR.. Baker seemed perfectly
cool while waiting for his fate to be an
nonnced, but when the verdict Of not
guilty was rendered was moved to tears
for the first time during the long trial,
and when hundreds Of friends pressed
around, eager to grasp his hand, he
laughed and wept by turns. The prin-
cipal evidence against DR.. Baker was
that Of Mrs. Gilmer, who distinctly
swore that Baker had suggested to her
that she should poison her husband and
that he would poison his wife in order
that all obstacles to the illicit love of
the two could be removed. AT both this
and the previous trial the defense tried
to establish the fact that Mrs. Baker
died natural death.

LONDON, March ga st. Petersburg
dispatch to The Standard relates this
story as an echo Of Emperor Williams
famous Brandenburg speech. After the
emperor sat down at the close Of his adj
dress guest said to him, jokingly, that
he apparently had forgotten that Russia
was always behind him. The emperor
retorted: II will pnlverize Russia
Shouvaloff, upon hearing this remark,
made close inquiries concerning 1t and
then communicated the details Of the
scene and the dialogue in question TO
NJ. DE Giers, who related them to the
car. At court reception four or five
evenings ago the car is said to have
addressed General Won Schweinitz rather
abruptly with the words: "Tell your
emperor that when he wants to begin
pulverizing MS we will throw half mill
lion soldiers over his frontier with the
greatest pleasure"
General Won Schweinitz has commun-
icated this message, it is said, to the
Emperor William.
The story, while doubtless exagger.
ated, is vouched for by The Standard
correspondent as containing kernel OF
truth. Rumors Of Williams sympathy
with the Poles has rendered the czaI es-
pecially bitter against him lately.

borrow the sergeant's pistol Mulcahey
said that he wanted to shoot q dog.
