The boast of the calamity howlers

certain to control the sentiment in the
next House and to dictate the choice
OF the President through tbs Fifty
s'c'nd Congress, is Of particular il.
terest to the silver States where the
missionaries of this movement are now
working. The leaders of the PEOPLES
party in the present Congress have
omitted no opportunity to show that
their pretended attachment for free
coinage was only a step towards an
absolute fiatism which should abolish
all coinage and substitute Government
legal tender notes based on the credit
Of the Government alone. General
Weaver was admittedly fat money
advocate during the last terms of his
Congressional career. His successors.
like simpson of Kansas and Watson
of Georgia, are as open advocates of
an expansion of the circulating medium
by Congressional enactment and the
Government Printing Office. On

was referred to the Committee on
Judiciary and ordered to be printed.

fifteenth section provides
That ono year from and after the
passage OF this act the coinage of
gold and silver coins above the de-.
nomination of twenty-five cents shall
cease and three years from the date
Of the passage of this act such coins
shall no longer be legal tender and
the United States shall provide for
the redemption of all such coins at
the face value by exchanging for them
legal tender paper money and manu-.
facture them into bars and keep the
same on sale.

the home market for silver. 1t is a
matter of interest to know what
claims the advocates of such scheme
have upon the honest silver miners of
the West for support in their attempt
to sit in the White House. They are
the most bitter enemies which silver
has had in the past quarter of a cen.

An Oakland Mayor Rolled.

OAKLAND, Cal, Feb. 29.-On Saturday
afternoon Mayor Chapman fled a com
plant in a libel suit for $100, 900 damages
against the Enquirer, but up to noon tos
day the papers had not been served. The
Enquirer today reiterates its charge that
the unnecessary expenditure of about
$4,000 in advertising in excess of the re-
quirements of law is steal. 1t says that
in the beginning of his libel suit Mayor
Chapman may have builded better than
he knew, and predicts that it will lead
to disclosures on the trial which will be
disastrous to the political ring.

John d. Rockefeller Alarmed.

New YoRR, Feb. 26.-The residence of
John D. Rockefeller is guarded by a
patrol of stalwart police. This has been
constantly kept up for two months past.
Why this precaution is taken has been
the unavailing effort of many reporters
to ascertain, but Mr.. Rockefeller has
positively declined to divulge the reason.
1t is the general opinion that the oil
magnate has become alarmed at the re-
cent crank mania for striking the rich
men of the city for loans ranging from
mere trifies to millions of dollars, and
has taken this precaution to protect
himself from some OF them.

Lyons, N. Y, Feb. 29.-The taking of
flowers and fruit to express robber Per-
ry by some Lyons women has caused
much discussion. Last night the Rev.
Blestadter, of the Presbyterian church,
expressed his views on the matter as fol-
lows: ''It would be better If the crowds
who visit these fellows would leave them
to the accusations of their own con-
sciences instead of listening with admir-
alton to. their stories, which gratifes
their vanity. Does enormity of crime
make it less heinous? I have more re-
spect for ragged thief who steals. to
satify his hunger, than I have for the
kid-gloved robber who shoots, in cold
blood, a faithful express agent. 1 have
heard of flowers being sent to these great
criminals. May even the most foolish
admirers of this so-cahed courage and
pluck among us be kept from such
wicked folly. May kind providence mer-
cifully deliver us from all such nauseat-
ing manifestations of sickly sentimental

Uneasy Rests the crowned Heads.

SAN SALVADOR, Feb. 29.-It is stated
here with great positiveness that Gen.
Reina Barrios, who some time ago re-
turned from San Francisco, CAL, to run
as candidate for the presidency, is a
prisoner in hotel, where he has been
stopping with his family. President
Barridas, it is alleged, caused rumors to
be spread to the effect that Barrios and
powerful enemies were planning to
assassinate him. To protect him from
this danger the president is maintaining
constant guard of troops around the
hotel. Gen. Barrios' wife, who is an
American woman, is half crazed through
fear that he will be murdered. Col.
Lima, who, as alleged, failed to carry
out Barridas orders to start the pre-
tended revolt which was to be attributed
to Gen. Entiquez and thus afford pre-
text for killing the latter, has, it is said,
been whipped to death in the peniten-
tiary. President Barridas, it is said, is
frightened by the idea that he will be
poisoned.

The Idaho election case was aga in
taken up and Claggett resumed his ar
'gument in the support of his claim to
the seat. Dubois gave a detailed ac-
count of the election. Pugh, who signed
the majority report in favor of Dubois,
made an argument in defense of it.
While he was speaking the chair of
Vance, who sat close to him, broke
down, letting the North Carolina senator
fall to the floor with some force and
much noise. AS Vance picked himself
up, apparently unhurt, he said: 3.I
beg the gentleman's pardon for inter
rupting him. to which Pugh rejoined
he had not supposed his argument to be
so overpowering. Mitchell gave notice
he would ask the senate to sit out the
Idaho case tomorrow.

WASHINGTON, Feb. 29.-There is a
story current today that Senator Hill is
soon to be married. Originally the
name of the daughter of the late William
L. Miller was coupled with his, bnt this
afternoon the senator declared to one
who broached the subject to him that
the report was absolutely false. Later
the story took the form that he was en-
gagged to rich Albany widow, and that
they would be married late in the COM
ing summer. A gentleman who is
thought to be in position to know,
said this evening that he had every rea-
son to believe that insideof ayear David
would no longer be in the ranks of the
bachelors. Nothing but an actual mar
riage viii ever convince some folks of
this.

VIENNA, Feb. 29.-The authorities of
this city have at last been compelled to
recognize the urgency of the situation
among the poor, and now permit the
socialist committees to circulate appeals,
hitherto prohibited, for donations. They
estimate that 5000 shoemakers, 5000
carpenters, 1900 metal workers, 1000
stone workers and %, 600 unskilled labor
ers are out of work, and much misery
exists as a result. Famine prevails in
northern Hungary, and 10000 inhabi-
tants of the county Arvi are in state of
distress equaling that prevalent in Rus
sia. The government will not receive
the sufferers because they are of the
Slav race.

An Eventful Dav.

The Mexican Dollar, that has been a pro-
mlnent instrument in our for many
years, though 1t Is dying, seems determined
to die hard, and came perilously near causing
bloodshed here to day. As the circulation of
the tokens has by law been suppressed,
there WAS considerable commotion in town
thls morning consequent on people rushing
to have those they held redeemed On the
other hand, the coal carriers still declined to
work unless they receive dollar for dollar
Danish silver a day. Crowds of these and
others para Ell the streets crying down the
Mexican ard shouting fOI Danish money, each
moment fresh acccsSionS joining until it as
snmed a considerable size. After making
loud demonstrations at the three principal
steamship agencies, the crowd moved to the
Police Office, and next to the Government
Secretary's Office. BY this time the mob hal
reached enormous proportions and as its at
titude became menacing-a number, male;
and female, carrying sticks which they bran
dished wildly detachment of armed SOL
diers, under Captain Paludan, was ordered
out, u posse of Police, together with Police
master Fischer, X. D., and Policeassistant
kjer, likewise doing duty. The Military
halted at the Big Market, some of the troops
being stationed there to check the rush.
whilst the others proceeded further down. at
the sight of the troops the people became
greatly excited and %riotons, and at a certain mo-
ment there was every appearance that a CON-
fict would ensue. They, however. very Ssnsi.
bly, desisted from turbulence, and after hpa:-
ing that they would be paid dollar for dollar
Danish money as their days wage assumed a
calm and cheerful demeanor. Notwith-
standing, the multitude did not dispense, but
the downpour of a heavy shower of rain
caused 1t to be perceptibly thinned. During
the tumuit all stores were closed, and busi-
ness suspended, and some doors were only

10 tho Editor Of the "St. Croir Apis.'

Did the Teachers Defendant" pos
sess the necessary qualification he might by
his oratory, i~nstigate the Inspector of Schools,
and his staff of Teachers to sue "Justus" for
defamation of character, / am, however, much
afraid that the Judge would fail to make a
good case, and the matter would have to be
thrown out for want of sufficient evidence.
In his eagerness to come forward as the
champion of the Teachers, the writer has
plunged himself into a labyrinth of errors.
In the first lace, he has taken the liberty
to asoribe to Justus's letter the malice Which
evidently pervades his own bosom; hence the
Interpretation which he gives it shows the
Teachers to be incapable and unfaithtul, and
the Inspector, in keeping such men, un6t for
his post"
TO this, l would simply reply by repeating
the time-honoured motto, 'H0ni sott q~i NAL
psnse."
He next wants to show that the increase in
the percentage of children who now pass in
the three "R's" is something of which to make
a very loud boast he seems to leave entirely
out of the account the strict observance of the
compulsory clause and the liberal supply of
paid assistants in the schools, and the fact
that the children now attend school till the
18th, instead of being dismissed at the 10th
year. Ii he would take the trouble to look
back to the time when the percentage of the
passes was as low as so or 40, when compulsory
attendance was o nominal thing, he might be
surprised to find that the proportion which
