Alderman Frost moved that 1851 SO
be stricken from the bill Of the Grand
Rapids Electric Light and Power COM
pany. Alderman Saunders WAS on his
feet In q moment and championed the
cause of the company. He said what
the city wished was good lights, not q
rebate on the monthly bills. Alder
man Stein moved that the amount be
stricken from the roll and referred
back to the committee on lights, which
carried.
Those Election Bills.
Alderman Ball called up the matter
of pay for aldermen who acted as in
spectOrs of election. He would like to
know whether the aldermen and super
visors should draw pay as inspectors,
or whether the regular salaries of these
officers covered all duties which they
should perform for the city. After
some discussion q motion was made
that the items relative to the pay of
| aldermen and supervisors for acting as
inspectors of election be laid over for
one week, and referred to the city at
| torney for his opinion as to the legality
of the claims. The motion was lost

passed. The comptroller reported tho
bills of several clerks of election. rang
ing from S6 to Sl0.50. They were re-
ferred to the committee on claims and

GENERAL W EAYER


of the increasing weakness of the
goldbug combine in Colorado than
the policy of keeping Mr.. Harrison
in the background and avoiding a
pretense in his behalf that is futile
with silver men, while if he is COM
mended at all it is only as choice
of evils. A strong minority of the
committees is in favor of throwing
the president overheard and substi-
tuting Weaver and Field electors,
as the only possibility of keeping
control of State affairs. But those
holding that view have not beep
able to carry the committee, al
though they are confessedly in the
market to sell out the Harrison
electors in the interest Of Helm and
Coe or either one of them.
While this squabble is going on
in q committee that is dominated
by convicted knaves, the suborned
Denver newspapers have turned
their mud batteries ON silver's cham
pion, General Weaver. The great
advocate of free coinage is maligned
daily and the published lies are
echoed on the stump by creatures
who would barter the industrial in
terests of the State for Wall street
Doodle or the profits Of office. We
are told that a man who has voted
for free coinage in season and out of
season for seventeen years is an en-
envy of silver. This absurd charge
comes from men and papers that are
in league with the Eastern gold
trust to betray Colorado, and hence
are not likely to influence the friends
of the white metal. Here is the tes-
timony of a man whose loyalty to
silver no one will question. Sena-
tor Stewart, who is now doing heroic
battle against Wall street Doodle in
Nevada says:
It is said that Weaver is not a
good man, and he has been sneered
at because he is at the head of this
movement in behalf of the people.

house of representatives when all
the power Of the party was brought
to bear upon him; some twenty or
thirty were on him at the same

it. He has fought for free and un-
limited coinage of silver ever since
the fraud Of 1878 was discovered.
His speeches in the house on that
subject are equaled by few and sur
passed by none.

abused and misrepresented by the
goldbug press of Colorado and by
speakers who take their cue from

Suspension there was n run, during
which between $1,000 and $1,000, all

Green, the cashier and ex-bank examiner for
this district, was arrested between 10 and II
o'clock last night, as startling disclosures were
made during tho evening. When Examiner
Dengler arrived on Saturday he found that
portion of the vault could not be opened, and
he sent to New York fer an expert. The man
arrived last night and worked five hours be-
fore getting the vault door open. 1t
was then found that S23, 0c0 in money
and bonds was gone. Shortly after
this the excited depositors started a run.

There is movement on foot in Paris to Sc
cure the popular observance of Sunday and
very strong society has been formed to further
this cause. The honorary president OF the So
ciety, Senator Jules Simon. said to the Associ-
ated Press correspondent yesterday: I'VE de-
sire that our workmen may have a days rest
once a week and Sunday is naturally the day
we have chosen. But our undertaking is a diff
fcult one. because il runs counter to numerous
customs and interests which do not like to be
interfered with. At present our factory hands
and shop people work not only during the long
hours of every week day, but also on SUNDAYS.
We do not wish to forbid people working on
Sundays if they wish to do So but we aim to
prevent them from forcing other people to
work.
NJ. Leon Say the eminent political econo-
mist and deputy, who lis president Of the So
ciety, said: "Our society is the result of a
congress of, social economists held in Paris
during the exhibition of 1899. 1t was then
unanimously recognized that weekly day of
rest is indispensable to the working classes. We
do not ask for legislation. but depend entirely
for success on the power OF persuasion. And
it cannot be said that we have hitherto labored
in vain. Two years ago our society numbered
twenty persons Today we count over $500
members, made Mp Of republicans and mon
archists, Catholics and Protestants, bishops
and free thinkers. We have already achieved
some practical results. In the post office we

GEN. OGLETHORPE'S HEIRS.

Trying to Claim Property as Such In Georgia.
Is there any property in or around Savannah,
or in any other part of Georgia, to which the
heirs of Gen. James Oglethorpe founder of the
colony, can lay claim? That is the question
that has been put to Messrs OConner &
OBrien of Savannah. and it is the question that
they will endeavor to answer after a thorough
research into all records having any bearing
upon it.
Gen. Oglethorpe's direct heir, a lneal de-
scendant Of the next of kin, is now preparing
for struggle to obtain some money and other
property held in England. He lives in London,
Ontario. and through the United States consul
at that city has started an investigation to dis
cover what the prospects are of securing for
tune in Georgia in a similar way to that in
which he hopes to obtain one in England.
His name is Allan GoOdburn and he is the son
of John and Mary Goodburn. His mother q
maiden name was Mary Oglethorpe and she
was the daughter of Samuel Oglethorpe, the
nephew of Gen. E. Oglethorpe. This makes
the claimant the great-grandnephew OF the
founder.
The fact that such an investigation is now
under way has just been made public and has
rather startled real estate owners.

Representatives providing for the removal of
the wall around the square between q and /
and sth and 9th streets southeast, wherein il
was stated that the sum of $4,000 is to be ap-
propriated. Only $4,000 is to be appropriated
if the government disposes Of the old material
at auction, and l. it is deemed expedient to
use 1t in the navy yarG or gun foundry grounds
then SIS, 900 is the figure. The people of East
Washington want this old penitentiary looking
wall taken away ant the grounds laid out as a
park. There is no more reason for its retention
than there was for the fence that formerly in
closed the Capitol grounds and Smithsonian
park. as we'll as other public reservations
through which the public now pass to and fro.
Halt dozen marines make up the quota whose
voices wake the echoes in the old deserted build
ings. and the government has no reason in the
world for continuing this obstruction of by
gone days. The gun foundry is fast becoming
one OF the most popular of resorts for sight
seers who come to the capital city, and this eye
sore on the route thereto should be removed
without delay. 1t is damage to the interests

DIR. Graves was taken to the penitentiary at
Canon City, Col. .lastevening. Besides the officers,
he was accompanied by a large number OF
other prisoners. mostly petty offenders. Steel
cuffs were on his hands and chains bound his
feet This is the first time he has been exposed
to such indignity. He took the situation cody,
and was courteous and pleasant to officers in
charge. The doomed man talked freely on all
topics but the one of his supposed guilt.
DIR. Graves was not permitted to see his wife
before departing. She is improving gradually,
and is ignorant that her husband last evening
took one more step in the direction of the
gallows. This information will not be con-
veyed to her until she is well enough to go to
him.

day into the conduc. of the officers who con-
