"What is to be the policy of the
Democrats regarding free silver"
was the question l propounded to
Senator Hill. Of New York, to-day.
Mr.. Hill smiled one of his know
ing smiles and replied with an inno-
cence childlike and bland:
81 am a new Senator, and ! have
not as yet been able to discover
that the Democrats have policy
about anything"
As the Senator turned to goaway
/ pumped another question at
him: "Senator, the burning
question of the hour Is how will you
vote on free silver bill if one
comes before the Senate"
The Senator was unprepared for
so leading a question, and it evi.

ment later be made this guarded
statement:
81 will not cross that bridge until

The Garza Revolution.

The Cara revolution is not ended yet. 1t
looks as IL 1t were only getting under full
Roadway. The revolutionists are gaining in
numbers. Many prominent men in Northern
Mexico do not hesitate row to declare their
sympathy with the revolutionary move
ment.
The whereabouts of Cara has not been
known to the Mexican government Turing
the last week or two, but there are signs
that he has not been Idle. It Is predicted
by his sympathizers that when he again
makes his appearance in the field he will
have following that will alarm President
Diez and his advisers.
All accounts agree that there is great dis
satisfaction in the northern states of Mexico
with the Diaz administration. Very little
is done by the government for that section
OF the republic. and the people there feel
they are practically ignored and their
interests neglected.
If the revolution gets good start it will
be a very difficult matter TO check it. The
Mexican army is not very reliable one. 1t
is not composed Of men who are controlled
by patriotic motives, and in a war against
men who are fighting for what they believe
to be their rights, it could not be depended
upon to display much enthusiasm or hero
ism. Although the revolution has not yet
reached serious proportions, It has sufficient
strength to make the Mexican government
very uneasy.

yesterday while practicing clever dodge to in
crease trade says the Philadelphia Times He
stopped about noon in front of the postoffice
building and arranged his bottles in neat rows
on his cart, displaying large placard stating
their price and conveying additionally the in
formation that the price was a reduction of
about 600 per cent. from manufacturers rates.
Then he deliberately threw couple of full
bottles on the sidewalk, fairly in the midst of
the passing crowd, and as they broke and their
contents flew in all directions the fakir began in
loud voice to call attention to his wares The
ruse proved most successful, for it quickly at
tracted a crowd. During the next hour he sold
his stock very briskly, The odor of the spilled
perfumery reaching for a dozen yards around
his cart and bringing passers by to a stand still
AS demonstration OF the fakirs business
ability the exhibition was very successful but
In an interview which he subsequently accorded
the reporter he said the activity of the police
