He Makes . Decoration Day Address se
jefferson City.
JEFFERSON CITY, Mo-, May 3l.-Dec-
Grafton day was observed here yester-
day, the business houses and public Of
fees being closed in the afternoon.
Owing to the Indictment weather the
memorial services at the national GEM
etery were very brief.
Upon the invitation of James A.
Garfield post G. A. r No. of this city,
the Hon. John j. Ingalls, of Kansas
was present as the orator of the occa-
sion.
To those who expected an exhibition
of his powers of invective, his speech
was a disappointment, as his remarks
were purely in laudation of the Grand
Army of the Republic. He spoke more
of the living than of the dead. The
organization, he said, was the noblest
and most patriotic in existence to-day,
and its members had no apologies to
make for their order. He grew most
statistics and pension legislation, and
between the two he devoted most OF
his time. He favored the enactment OF
the general service pension bill, an d
said the millions hitherto disbursed by
the government on account of pensions
was inadequate to discharge its obi
cations to the veterans of the late war
and those dependent upon them. He
prophesied that the disbursements on
account of pensions would and as .
matter of right ought ultimately to
approximate sum equal to the aggre-
gate required to maintain the union
armies and suppress the rebellion.
He produced figures to show that the
men enlisted and serving three years
actually donated to the government
over $1,000 each, that being the
difference between what the govern
ment paid them and the amount they
could have earned had they remained
at home. As another evidence of the
business of their claims and of their
magnanimity as well he said that
under the rules of war they had q
right to the property of the conquered,
but at the close of the war they re-
turned to their homes and left the
conquered in the peaceful possession
of their property. The union soldier,
he said, fought because he loved his
country and his state; the confederate
fought because he hated both. but he
added: II believe they thought they
were right"

HERE Is ANOTHER PLAN
Belgian Delegate Allird's Scheme Re.
sirdinS the Silver Question
BUT LITTLE PROGRESS MADE
No Decisions Vet Reached In the
Work OF Solving the Per.
picking Problem-An
Americana Wow.

BRussEIs, Dec. s.-lmmcdiately after
the opening to-day of the monetary con-
ference Allard. one Of the Belgian dele
gates, submitted a plan for an interna-
tional agreement for the purchase under
common account OF stocks Of silver,
against which treasury notes are to bc is
sued by the contracting states. none OF
which will be obliged TO coin the silver
thus purchased or modify the existing cur
rency legislation. Tho plan also proposes
that these notes shall have an in,erna-
tional circulation.
Rafralcvitch, the Russian delegate, spoke
briefly regarding Moritx Lcyy's plan. Hc
declared he did not believe under the pres
cnt conditions any international agree
mcnt TO regulate the relation between
gold and silver Is possible. General dis
cussion was then resumed.
The best authorities state that when tho
conference adjourns next week il will bc
until spring. A careful canvass of the
delegates shows that majority of them
favor this course. The debate on various
bi-metallic proposals will conclude Tues
day. The American and other bi-mctallic
delegates will try 10 obtain from the con-
florence recommendation to all govern
mcnts to allow from year TO eighteen
months to clapse before taking active
measures toward changing the present
currency methods. The advocates OF this
recommendation have in view the possible
improvement to the general monetary
position. They also hope much from the
growth of bi-metallism as q political
force in British politics. Tho proceedings
yesterday at tho British agricultural con-
ference in London, struck some OF tho
delegates like n revelation.
In reply to an invitation extended to
him by the conference, Professor Andrews
made an address i'm which he said he
hoped that the idea that America is bent
only upon increasing national wealth and
ms merely acting as n servile creature OF
mine owners, forever be dismissed as be-
ing equally absurd as on idea Of American
interests mainly due TO distress afiiict-
| ing the American monetary system. Con-
tinuing Professor Andrews said: "Wo
have not and are not ut present likely to
hive dollar IN silver beyond our needs
| In the United States. We have no idea of
soliciting any favor from the people of
Europe. What we desire is as much to
Eur0l,e interests ns To ours. We wish In
multiply our trade with the world. This
never will he successfully accomplished
ms long rs two great groups Of nations
continue TO drift apart. We will not for
ever alone assume tho task Of sustaining
the price of silver. II Europe is not
enough interested in the matter to cooper
ate with us. We will soon decrease our nm.
nual purchases of silver and begin TO pro-
vide by recruiting our currency by the
issue OF paper. The next congress Is
nearly certain to open procedure i'm that
direction. We will not give up our gold"

O'Connor entered the ring amid ap'
plauss at 8 :o5 closely followed by Dawsoo,
who received an ovation. Time was
called at 9O6. O'Connor led first, bat
Dawson got in the frst punishment on
the Bostonian's wind. Dawson cloeed
the round with right over the kidneys.
Second-O'Connor got in good left On
the wind. Dawson gave light right and
left near the ropea, but O'Connor drove
him back with an overland left and soon
followed il with two sounding left
smashes on Dawson's cheek. Dawson
landed on tho head as the round closed.
Third-O'Connor dashed in n number OF
lefts. Dawson landed q staggering left
on tho chin. but O'Connor forced him to
run from q loft jab, followed by . right
handler.
During the fourth, fifth and sixth
rounds Dawson found trouble in reaching
the Bostonian, who landed handily MT will.
In the seventh OConnor struck Dawson
o blow that sickencd him and the referee
warned the Bostonian IL IL occurred again
he would give the fight to Dawson. O'Con-
nor apparently had a strong lead. whilo
Dawson's blows lacked steam. O'Connor
had the fight his way until the twelfth.
when his blows were lacking In force and
poorly timed.
During the thirteenth. fourteenth, hf-
teenth and sixteenth rounds Dawson kept
the Bostonian dodging about the ring to
evadc his right. O'Connor was working
hard, but failed to accomplish much.
Dawson let up several times when hc APP
parently could have flushed the fight.
II was seen that the Bostonian was out
matched and Dawson'had the fight his own
way to the end. O'Conner dropped 10 the
floor continually and fought and clinched
in desperation. In the twentieth and last
round Dawson worked his opponent into
the ropes and as O'Connor bent his head,
he dropped him fiat on his back with an
uppercut knocking him out.

was adversely criticised. There is feel
