anxned by Finch and Lewis.

The Democrats turned out in good force
last night and went with many of their
wives and sisters to the Armory to hear

disappointment. John Collins was tenn

dent, and the following was the list of

Fine Speeches by Mr.. Craven, Capt. Ne.
Csnerty. MI. white and Abe sprtng.
The Republicans Of the east end of the
Second ward held q rousing meeting last
night in the hall on the corner Of Jackson
and Alton streets. The hall was we'll filled,
many Democrats and popuiists being
present. Hermon w. Craven was the first
speaker and addressed his remarks to the
fallacies of the Peoples party platform.
The way he did this greatly pleased all
but those who professed the doctrines he
exposed in such a vigorous manner.
The next speaker was Capt. John Nc
Cafferty, the able Irish American who is
now visiting the city, and who is doing
much effective work for the Republican
party. Capt. McCafTerty talked to the
workingmen upon the relation of the
tariff to their interests. He diiated in an
eloquent manner on the relative results to
labor in Great Britain and her colonies,
with free trade. as cuntrasted with the
United States. enjoying the blessings of
protected labor. He made an urgent APP
peal TO Irish voters. showing that every
Irishman who voted the Democratic ticket
cast bis ballot for the enemies of his race,
the British government.
Capt. McCafferty was loudly applauded
when he made telling points.
Will II. White, candidate for representa-
tive from the Thirty-ninth district, spoke
briefly on local issies. and made a very
fine impression by his earnestness and his
straightforward manner.
The last speaker vas Abe Spring. He
gave some graphic chapters from the book
of his experience in the free trade coun.
tries of Europe. and told of his observa-
tons in countries where financial systems
such as are advocated by the Peoples
party have been tried and found ruinous.
The meeting was good one in that the
speeches were on topics Of interest to
every man present, and were all plain
statements of political facts.
vote of thanks was rendered the vari.
Gus speakers. and the audience dispersed
feeling satisfied Republican ideas were
marching onward to q glorious victory,
which would be consummated next No
vember.

THE RIEsr AsIATIC STEAMER.
Arrival Of the Loo Bok-Troubls with
tho Lhngah0ramcn.

The British steamer Loo sok, the FIRST Of
the Northern Pacific Oriental line to come
10 this port. arrived here yesterday. seven
teen and one-half days from Kongkong.
vIa Yokohama. She had comparatively
little freight for this port. so 1t is evident
the company proposes TO have its vessels
come in here right along hereafter. This
concession . due 10 the vigorous protest
Seattle merchants made against having
the vessels pass BY here TO Tacoma to land
all their freight. when nine-tenths of all
the freight carried for the Sound proper
was for Seattle, the balance being through
freight.
Capt. Perkes reported fair passage, but
considerable rough weather for two or
three days after leaving Yokohama Only
once. however, was there any actual dan
ger. and that was when she was struck by
typhoon. 1t vas Of short duration, like
land cyclone. but was extremely violent
while IL lasted. On October she passed
bark with fore topmast gone. She landed
first ut Victoria, coming from there here.
The Loo Sok Is an iron vessel, 257 feet
long, IS feet beam and Of loo net ton

carrying capacity Of 5000 tons. Her cargo

and her Seattle freight was $50 chests of
tea. This was landed At Schwabacher's
wharf, and she then proceeded to Tacoma.
Capt. Perkcs had some trouble with the
Iongshoremen In regard to the discharging
Of the freight. He had plenty Of men on
board 10 discharges the freight and land it
on the wharf, and he wanted. the long
shoremen To truck 10 into the warehouse
This they refused to do unless they were
allowed TO discharge the vessel as well.
J. 3. Goldsmith, of Schwabacher Bros. &
Co., took in the situation, and, lest it
should influence the steamship company
in keeping its vessels out of here in future,
he instructed J. u. Carroll. the whariinger.
60 pay the longshoremen the difference on
the compaBy's account. This ended the
trouble. Whartinger j. G. Carroll said:

TIE SILVER QUESTION.
Secretary Foster VIII Attend a Bi-Ms
tallic Conference in London.

Secretary Foster VIII Attend n Bi-Me-
tallic Conference in London.
NEW YORK, Feb. 27.-The Herald
says information reached Wall street
Thursday from Washington to the
effect that Great Britain will positively
join the United States, Germany and
France in calling an international bi-
metallic money conference ON condition
that the British representatives will not
pledge their government to abide by the
decision of the conference.
The fact that England has expressed
willingness to join in conference
toward the recognition of silver as
money, even with a cautious condition
coupled to it, was regarded in finan-
cial circles as of the greatest import
ance.
1t is said that the conference will be
announced soon after the arrival of Sec
retary Foster in London. The official
announcement of the conference will,
it is expected, bring about lively bull
market, for all silver scares will vanish
until the conference finishes its worl-,
and if silver is recognized capitalists
will know what to depend upon.
1t is stated that Secretary Foster,
when he arrives in London, Will call on
Mr.. Goschen, the chancellor of the ex-
chequer, and will discuss the subject Of
the conference with him, but the inter-
view will be entirely informal and Incl
dental,
