SILVER UP A POINT
Mogan's Resolutions Are Be-
fore the Senate
ON 4 YEAS AND NAYS VOTE


wAsnISGros. May 16.-Encouraged
by the vote yesterday BY which the
senate refused to refer his silver resolu-
tons, Mr.. Morgan today invited Mr..
Stewart of Nevada 70 move 10 proceed
to the consideration of his free coinage
bill. Mr.. Stewart of Nevada, acting on
the suggestion thrown out by Nj.
Morgan, moved to lay aside unfinished
business and take up the order of bus-
ness No. 257, bill TO provide for the
free coinage Of gold and sliver bullion
and tor other purposes. This was .
bill introduced by MIN and placed on
the calendar last February with an ad-
verse report upon it from the commit
tee on finance. IL provides that the
unit Of value in the United States shall
be dollar of 4l2} grains OF
silver or Of 25 $40 grains Of standard
gold and that any owner OF gold or
silver bullion may deposit in sums Of
not less than 500 in any United States
mint to be coined into standard dol
lara without charge and that the treas
ury should be authorized TO issue gold
and silver certificates therefor. Mr..
Morgan demanded the yeas and nays
on the motion to take up this bill and
they were ordered, and resulted isome
senators avoiding vote and others be-
ing palred), republicans, IL democrats
and 2 farmers alliance voting in its
favor. A general debate on Mr..
stewards bill Was then opened by Mr..
Teller of Colorado. At the close of
Mr.. Teller's speech. which was quite
lengthy, the senate went into executive
session and at $3.50 p. m. adjourned.

Hor SPRINGS, Ark, May 26.-The
principal theme of dlscusson at today's
proceedings of the southern Presbyter-
ian general assembly was "Home Mis-
slons." The report went through the
crucible OF prolonged inspection
and dissection. The salient
points of the report are
as follows with the uncertainty of the
present situation of affairs of the
church. The committee says it pru-
IDENTIFY refrained from making absolute
promise as TO the amount to be paid to
evangelists in July, and to the benefi-
claries OF the sustenence fund in Oc-
tober next, because the payments must
depend entirely on the income from
the June and August collections.

BEFORE A DYING MOTHER.
Alma oottsehaik Welded to August Poh-
iig ss Her Dying Mothers Bedside.

lig At Her Dying Mothers Bedside.
CHICAGO, May 26.--In the presence Of
her dying mother Alma Gottschalk
was married TO Augnss Pohlig at her
home. No. 40 NORTH Clark street. last
Monday. The ceremony Was
performed by the Rev. II.
o. Rowlands, pastor OF the La.
Salle Avenue Baptist church.
The strange story brought TO light by
this marriage has seldom been sur
passed by even the most imaginative
novehsts. Mrs. Gottschalk was
widow AZ years old. Her husband
died two years ago. He left her prop
erty valued at $4,000. Soon after his
death she took into her home August
Pohiig, q poverty stricken, awkward, /,
overgrown youth who had, 90 the story
runs, after being divorced, deserted his
two children. Mrs. Gottschalk's friends
demonstrated with her for taking the
young man into her home, but she re-
piled that this was her business and
coon gave it out that she and the youth
were 10 wed.
In mis- will Mr.. Gottschalk, who was
president and general manager of the
Chicago Malt & Grain company and
proprietor of the Royal Vinegar works,
left the bulk OF his estate TO his widow
with the stipulation that she should
forfeit all claims TO the same in the
event of her marriage, and that it
should go TO the children; and that it
is thought caused the p0stponement of
her proposed marriage 70 Pohlig until
she was stricken by disease. Finding
that her Gays we're numbered
the widow requested. some say
commanded, her daughter Alma to
marry Pohlig. And this is why in the
darkened chamber while the hoarse
death rattle was hearcd in the mothers
throat the solemn-vlsagel minister in
slow and measured tones pronounced
the words which made Alma Cots.

Life Underwriters Score Unscsupulous
Solicitors Of Risk.
CHICAGO. May 26.-Tne executive
committee of the National Life Under
writers association is winding up It's
two days. session 1T the Wellington to-
day. Many important matters we're
taken up and recommendations made
to the national convention, which
meets September 81 next, but the most
important subject under discussion Was
the life insurance solicitor who uses
guerrilla" methods in his business. Ac-
cordiug to the legitimate broker this
worthy will stoop 70 the lowest point 10
obtain hin ends. He looks for nothing
but commissions and ~ many as he
can get. and he will blackguard and
libel any and every riva. company 10
secure q policy. Instances we're cited
by members of the committee today
where these dlsreputable agents had
frightened aed coerccd policy boldere
in reliable companies TO cancel their
policies and take out new ones IN the
companies tho pirate broker represent
ed. The committee will handle these
fakirs without gloves and recommend
system OF boycott,Bg. The names OF
these men will he sent around 20 all the
reputable companies and they will I've
exposed ~ every opportunity.

cals," said one OF the committeeman.
"and elevate the insurance business 20

Eikins' Il Csrtsin.
He assured Mr.. Ciarksou that Mr..
BlAince writing his letter Of withdrawal
had frequently told the president that
he did not want the nomination and
would not take il If offered. The An
intention Of the administration
to make an aggressive fight for the
il there shali be signs OF
opposition to the Harrison program at
Minneapolis, has aroused great deal
of speculation among tha anti Harri-
son contingent at the capital. IL has
thrown something OF . damper over
the enthusiasm OF all but the more
ardent Of the Blaine admirers. for they
have no desire to lead the secretary OF
state into anything that seems like .
contest for q nomination which it is
known he does not personally desire.
They VIII stand out.
It has been assumed from the begin
ming that with the appearance of the

other candidates would be swept away

is 10 be any considerable section of the
convention pledged to stand out 0bsti-
nate for . candidate of its own choice

experienced leaders, the situation as

have been most earnest in their asser-
tons that Mr.. Blaine would accept the
nomination, If rendered by acclama-
ton, and with unanimity, hesitate to
reply to the question whether he
would accept nomination given him
after hard struggle over . deter
mined opposition. To some of the
Blaine men. however, the attitude OF
the administration as thus outlined
seems incongruous With some OF the
professions of the supporters of the
president.
