IHE ANTI-SILVER MIN
Do Not Seem Able to Muster Sufficient
Force to Delay
THAT BLAND FREE COINAGE BILL.
The Republicans Though Determined 70 Vote Against
Free Coinage Finally, are Doing all in Their
Powe 70 Bring it Before the House in he
Hope Of Splitting the Democrats

WAsHINGrOY, D. c., February %
The anti-silver Democrats and the con-
servative men who, while favOring free
coinage, see that the agitation OF the
question az this time will work 70 the
'eneral detriment Of the party without
he possibility of any cOmpenSatlng ad-
'antage, are wOrkink hard 70 bring the
ixtreme free silver men 10 reason.
The committee on rules to-day re-
ported TO the house rule setting aside
March 2l, % and % for the considera-
ion OF the Bland bin. The house will
pass on this report on Monday next,
aud those who oppose considering the
bland bill at this session will do every
thing ia their power 10 muster enough
votes 70 defeat the adoption Of the rule.
At present il must be said the prospect
Of doing so is not good. The anti-sil-
yer men have made a careful canvass OF
house, and it is said they fnd them
selves twenty votes short Of enough 10
accomplish their purpose.
They will keep up their work how
ever on the more moderate aud reaSona-
ble Of Mr. BANDS followers TO induce
them 20 vote for a postpOnement for the
general good of the party. The atti-
tude Of the Republicans shows very
clearly that they see their greatest
chance Of success In the coming preSi-
Dental election In fostering the division
on the silver question among the Demo-
Gratis. The Republicans will not, il is
understood, join with the anti-silver
Democrats in the effort TO secure a post
ponement Of the silver discussion
They say they would just as leave have
the silver bill come up now as at any
other time. They will vote against its
adoption when the time comes, but they
are very well satisfied to see the Demo
Gratis split up and placed on record as
favOring free silver.
The Republicans know this will in
jure II il does not destroy The Demo
cratic chance Of carrying New York,
Connecticut and New Jersey this fall,
and Of course il fills them with JOY 70
see the contest go on. II Is almost their
only hope for the future.

On Mr. Blaine's Letter Concerning the
Marrirge OF His Son to Miss Sevins.

On Mr. Blaine's Letter Concerning the
Marrisge of His Son to Miss Neyins.
New YoRk, February ga reporter
for the Herald last night went to Rev.
Father Dncey's house TO interview him
about the reference made to him by
Mr. Blaine 10 his statement. This is
what the reporter says transpired:
Il have no statement TO make" said
Father Ducey, when told the substance
of Mr.. Blaine's publication.
"Mr. Blaine says ! transgressed my
priestly duties in marrying his son, eh?
In reply TO that I merely refer Mr..
Blaine to Arch hbishop Corrigan, that is
All have to say. The Archbishop knew
all that l did in the matter, and ap-
proved Of it, and Mr.. Blaine should re-
fer his com plant TO him"
Here Father Ducey closed the front
door of his house 10 intimate that the
interview was at an end Then he
onened il again and said:-''It would
have been Impossible for me to marry
voung Mr.. Blaine without the Arch
bishops sanction. He knew all the cir
cumstarces and granted the necessary
aDnrONGi. w ny NOCc AON -@A' ~
monstrate with him?"
Here the Conversation closed again
for a moment, but the Father returned
to the charge and with energy he added
this:-"If Mr.. Blaine says transgressed
nv Priestly functions he makes grave
error. / did not. simply did what
had been approved OF by a higher
.n,horftv in the Church."
s.But.n said the interviewer, "Mr.
blaine pnblishes letter which he says
ht wrcte TO you at the time Of the mar
rfage. protesting against your share in
the matter"
"He does, does hep" said Father d.
.ey. "Well, now, know ali about that
letter, and very poor letter IL is. It
will not help 70 set Mr.. Blaine right be-
fore the Catholic world. My action and
the authority / had for IL are well
known. They cannot be affected By the
uubIica<ion OF that letter"

VERY LITTLE INFORMATION
Elected at the Investigation of the Read
ing Railroad Combine by the New York
Committee.


Committee
NEW YORK, February 29.-The special
committee appointed by the Senate to
inquire into the recent coal deal be-
tween the Philadelphia and Reading,
the Lehigh Valley, Jersey Central and
Delaware, Lackawanna and Western
railroads met to-day. The first witness
was President Samuel Sloan, OF the
Delaware, Lackawanna and Western.
He said that he knew of absolutely moth
ing between the railroads. He admit
ted that last week he had been elected
a director of the New Jersey Central,
and also al the same time Messrs. Baker
and Maxwell, of this road, were elected
into the directory Of the Delaware,
Lackawann and Western.
w. d. Smith, General Eastern Pass
enger Agent Of the Lehigh Valley rail
road, swore he would infer that the
election of Messrs. Baker and Maxwell
to the directory Of the Delaware, Lack
awanna and Western was significant OF
harmonious relations between the New
Jersey Central and that road in the fu-
ture. He knew nothing about any ar
rangements between the Lehigh and
other railroads in regard TO combine
in the transportation OF coal. The com
mittee then adjourned until next Satur-
day.

WITH DYNAMITE.
French Anarchists Place Two Tubes OF
the Explosive in the Residence OF Prin-
cess Sagnn.


cess Sagan.
PARIS, February 29.-Tremendous
excitement was occasioned In the fash
ionable Fauburg street German by an
explosion that occurred at an early
hour this morning at the residence OF
the Princess of Sagan. When the cause
of the explosion was learned 1t was be-
lieved by many persons that IL was the
work OF anarchists, who, In their
blind desire for revenge against society,
had taken this means TO destroy the
property Of one Of its prominent mem
berS.
No other reason Is known why the
Princess should have been singled as a
victim. 1t appears that one OF the men
servants belonging 10 the PrlncesS's 5
household was sweeping out the door
way when his broom struck two tubes
that are supposed TO have contained
dynamite. The tubes were thrown
against one side OF the entrance, and in-
stantly there was flash aud a tremend-
Gus report.
In moment, CONSERVATION prevailed
in the vicinity. Gen d armes were
promptly at the scene and began an in
vostigation Of the affair. They eX-
pressed 1t as their opinion that the ex-
ploslon was due to dynamite that had
been placed In the doorway by friends
of the Anarchists who have been recent
ly arrested. They also believe from the
incomplete description given by the
man servant OF the appearance OF the
tubes that they were part OF the lot OF
cartridges stolen from the Seine quar-
ries.
The windows OF the Princess's resi-
dence, and OF number OF the adjoining
houses were blown TO atoms, but other
wise no damage Of consequence was
done. The escape Of the servant from
instant death was almost miraculous.

Later the story took the form that he

Sioux FALLS, s. D., February 90
The personal statement of James q.

riage and divorce, was not seen by Mrs.
Blaine, Jr., nor by her attorney until
after noon to-day, although brief tele-
grams from New York, Chicago and
Minneapolis advised them that a state
ment had been made. Secretary Blaine's
letter was this afternoon read to Judge
Palmer. The Judge listened attentivqly
to every word, and at the conclusion
expressed surprise that Mr.. Blaine
should have written such letter.
"Have you any reply to maBe?' was
askek.
"a very complete answer can and
will probably be made" said the Judge,
''but shall advise my client to say
nothing in haste and without due con-
sideration. What reply she makes Will
be as carefully prepared as the letter Of
Secretary BIaine's evidently was. Mrs.
Blaine, Jr., has been i'll ever since her
return from Deadwood, and she is sick
in bed to-day.
"She is very nervous and much dis
turbed and is in no condition to make
such an answer as the circumstances
call for. The Judge intimated that the
Secretary was weak in his facts and
that Mrs. Blaine, Jr., had abundant
proof to substantiate her statements
made in the trial at Deadwood."
This afternoon Mrs. Blaine declined
to be interviewed, saying that at pres
ent she did not care to make any state
ment to the public.
