a MODUS YIVENDI
Is What May Be Expected from
the Conference.
WORK OF THE COMMITTEE.
Governor Concord of Nevada Is Interviewed
on the Condition in NEUTRALITY-SUSPICIOUS. Teller
Also Expresses His Views.

BRUSSELS, Dec. 10.-At today's meeting
of the committee of the international mon
etary conference plans of Tietiens. Houlds-
worth and Allard were debated, and final
report to the conference will be prepared
which will be submitted Tuesday. Al
though the bi-metalist delegates feel that
the position is critical, they are hopeful
the conference Will not adjourn without
adopting a resolution recommending that
the various governments Interested adopt
a temporary modus vivendI with a view of
averting financial catastrophe. The COM
mittee adjourned without reaching deci-
sion on any of the plans. &
Before the conference proper Tirard of
the French delegation explained his posi-
ton in regard to BIZ meta,hsm He said,
under present circumstances, there was 10
chance to substitute pi-metallism for mono
metallism. There was nothing disquieting
in the position of France, by which other
Latin countries could not open minis FOR
she coinage of silver SO long as Great
Britain, Germany and Austria held aloof
Each country had the remedy in their own
hands, by increasing the coinage of silver.
Ii every country increased the coinage of
silver 10 twenty francs per capita, which
was less than half Frances total, the
amount of silver in circulation would be
enormously increased.

LONDON rs SCARED.
Anarchists Have a Plot to Blow
Up the City.
Every Public Binding Is Heavily Guarded
The Explosion Was to Have DC
CURED Last Night

! NEW YORK, Dec. 10.-The SUMS London
cable says: ut is now London's turn to be
put under the terror of dynamite. a gil
gantic dynamite plot is on the eve of exc
cution, and the utmost efforts of
the government are being exerted
t0 aver q catastrophe. The po-
lice know that the Anarchists have
planned frightful revenge for the extra
diLion of their comrade, Frances, but they
do not know just y here the blow is to fall.
The result is that Westminster Downing
street, Law courts and other public build
ings are guarded day and night by an army
of detectives.
The explosion was expected to take place
last night and 800 men from Scotland Yard
guarded the Parliament building alone.
door, every window and at every
corner and angle. The residences of the
detectives VINO arrested Frances, the mag
istrates who heard the case, and the court
and jail where he was confined we're SINH
larly protected. The fact that nothing
happened does not prove the alarm to be
baseless
Information which the agents of the
Scotland yard gained few days ago among
the anarchists is SAID to be very authentic.
The plotters have an ample supply of
dynamite but lacked only reliable de-
tonator or exploding apparatus. Their
confreeres in Paris agreed to supply
this. The strictest watch is main
tanned ever since at Dover, Folkestone and
other channel ports to detect the device in
transit if possible 1t has not been discov
cred and the detectives are presumably ig-
norant whether it is yet delivered.
Several anarchists in London are under
suspicion, but as nothing eliminating is
known no arrests have been made. AS
soon SIS the investigation has progressed
further it is said to be the plan to throw
out drag net suddenly and arrest many
suspected dynamiters in London. Mean
time the policy of maintaining a special
guard over the government buildings will
be continued

TELLER ON SILVER.
He Is Opposed to the Measure Introduced b!
Senator Hill

Senator Hill.
WASHINGTON, Dec. Ex-senator Teller,
one of the warmest champions of silver, is
very decidedly opposed to repeal of the
Sherman silver law, and looks upon the
bill introduced by Senator Hill as men
ace to the white metal. 81 am opposed 20
any interference with the Sherman act,
said Mr.. Teller, ''for any repeal of that
law means further depreciation of silver.
Of course the law is not what it ought to
be, and we always looked upon it as a
temporary expedient, but it affords some
relief. Until something better and more
permanent is given US, the silver men
would naturally be opposed to its repeal.
The Hill bill, or any similar measure,
would depreciate silver, even lower than it
now is and increase the evil instead of
remedying it,
Mr.. Teller thinks there will be no at
tempt at silver legislation this session,
certainly not until after the Brussels con-
ference. IF that conference" continued
Mr.. Teller s'does not do anything looking
to relief, then we must do it. | am hope
full, however, that the conference will &C
complish something, although it seems
probable it will adjourn over until spring.
Referring to the presidents message,
Teller said he could not understand what
the president meant by saying we could
meet the European demand for ouEs8o old by
legislation. 1--WE are the debtor nation, -
observed the senator, land cannot dictate
terms, much less legislate to suit ourselves
in the matter"

New York, Dec. 10.-Democratic United

Isle, who came here to devise means for
protecting the senate in the interests of
that party, were joined this morning by

which the above named together with
Whitney and other leading Democrats will

the situation in Kansas, Nebraska, Wyo-
ming, Montana, North Dakota and CalifOr-

venting Democrats from electing United
States senators, thus preventing them
from controlling the next United States
senate.
Martin M. Magginis of Montana, will be
present and give information as to the sit
uation in Montana. Wyoming and Kansas
will come in for the greatest share of at
tention. The question TO be discussed is

Failure of the Conference wouId Make no

LONDON, Dec. 10.-The Standards Vienna

the monetary conference Is so discounted
here that a failure viii make no impress
sion. Principal Austro- Hungarian papers
ridlcule the prophecies of terrible conse-
quence, contending that any action sucn as
is foreshadowed in President Harrison's
message would be breach of faith toward
creditors which public opinion of America
would not permit. Neither the Democrats
nor Republicans, it is said, dare repeal the
Window act, as it would precipitate an I'M

silver would fail to remove the root of the
causes of agricultural depression.

WARREN AND STALWA RTISM.

1t appears that General Charles Stal
wart Warren would not attend the Mis-
soula republican love feast where Cap
tain Couch ard other Butte dissentcrs
were welcomed to the communion table.
General Warren is a stalwart republican.
Democrats know where to find him
everytime right in the thickest of the
fight at the head of the enemy. There
is no milk and water in his mental or
physical makeup. He is a sturdy, stall
wart champion of his party and expects
every republican to stand up to the
rack, fodder or no fodder. If private or
officer desert his party colors or wilfully
fail to do his whole duty at critical
times the general would put him on pro-
baton and make him prove his faith by
good works before such private or officer
would be received again in full commun-
ion at the table OF the faithful. General
Warren is right.
The old democratic and whig parties
were composed OF men Of the Warren
school. Party lines were closely drawn
and "a scratched ticket was as much of a
curiosity at the polls as would a mug.
wump have been in those days. Party
desertion was a crime and the term OF
~"turncoat" the harshest epithet that
could be bestowed upon a traitor. II
was a fighting word. The man who
went over to the political enemy wal
ostracised by the better class Of men and
found no friends in the camp of his asso
