SILVER AND TARIFF,
Both Will Be Given Attention by
Congress This Week.

Congress This Week.
WASHINGTON, Feb. 2S.-The proceed
ings in congress during the present
week promise to be of more than usual
interest, for it is expected that the two
leading issues of the day-silver and
tariff-will figure in one OF both of the
houses. The senate will resume the
consideration of the pending Idaho
election case tomorrow, and Mr.
Claggett, contestant, will be al
lowed to conclude his argument be-
gun Saturday. lnasmuch as Mr.. CIag-
gett has already made a presentation
of his case that will require answer
from the committee on privileges and
elections, 1t is probable that the discus
given notice that he will interrupt the
regular order on Tuesday to deliver
some remarks upon his resolution pro-
viding for an inquiry into the alleged
interference of railroad companies in
Florida senatorial elections. 1t is III
derstood that the leading opponents of
the protection and tariff reform theories
intend to address the senate during the
week on the subject of reciprocity.
There is some uncertainty as to
the course of business in the
house during the week owing
to the illness of Mr.. Springer, chairman
of the ways and means committee,
which may possibly result i'll a post
ponement of the tariff discussion that
was booked to begin Tuesday, with the
wool bill as the special measure under
consideration. If the tariff bill be taken
up Tuesday its consideration will prob
ably occupy all the remainder OF the
week. The District of Columbia appro-
priation bill is almost completed by the
aspirations committee. and will OCCUPY
several days of the week in the event
that Mr.. Sprlnger's illness becomes so
serious as to DELAY the tariff debate

ChlcaGo Germans Not Inclined to
Mince Matters.
CHICAGO, Feb. 2S.-Twelfth street
Turner hall was filled to overlooking
this evening with demonstrative crowd
of Germans who had assembled to
listen to speeches upon the recent riots
in Berlin. Addresses were made by
Henry G. Bechtold, editor of the Fackel;
Morris SchultZe, editor of the Arbeiter-
Zeitung, and others. All spoke in the
same strain. Emperor William was de-
nounced in the strongest terms, and
every time he was scored a tremen-
dous shout Of approval went up from
the audience. Frequent reference was
made to the French revolution of
1898, and it was declared that the Ger
mans were ripe for a repetition of that
event in their own country. What did
1t matter if blood were spilled in the
cause of liberty and right? The hope
was expressed that the fight already be-
gun would be continued until the work
lngmen of Germany would obtain their
rights. Mr.. Schultze said the riots
In Berlin were not an uprising for bread
merely, but for entire freedom. The
attitude of the emperor had opened the
eyes of the people, and with well
directed efforts they would be able to
defy his authority. A memorial to
adopted. 1t extended to them the
, sympathy and moral support of the
assembled workingmen and citizens of
fChicago. and urged them to keep up
the fight against the oppreSsors. Cheer
upon cheer followed the adoption of
the memorials, and the meeting soon
after adjourned.

MANY LETTERS BURNED.
Destruction of Depot and PostaY
Cars

CINCINNATI, o., Feb. 2l.-A fire last
night at the Hamilton Il Dayton rail-
way depot destroyed two express cars
and two postal cars, together with
shed used by the United States Express
company for storage. The loss of the
shed and cars is insignificant. The loss
of express goods is believed to be
small, though the amount is not
known definitely. What gives most
Importance to the fire is the
destruction of letters in the mail car.
At least one large sack full of letters
was destroyed. They were destined to
go to Toledo and Detroit and beyond, as
we'll as to be distributed to the inter
vening cross lines of the Cincinnati,
Hamilton & Dayton road. Most of the
letters are partially destroyed. Only a
few are in condition to be sorted out
and forwarded to their destination.
There was also destroyed light news
paper mail. Eight thousand dollars
will cover the loss of the cars and the
express company's shed. The loss to
the express company for goods in its
care may be much more and it may be
less. The fire started in the express
cOmpany'S shed.

The EmperOr's Drive.

heartily cheered by the people all along

remark that during the recent disturb

OF the imperial family have always met
with loyal reception whenever they
nave appeared in public. The troops,
TOO, have always been warmly APP
plauded by the populace while march
Ing through the streets of the city.
ms, 1t is claimed, proves conclusiveiy
that the late trOnbles have not had
thelr origin III personal hatred of
the emperor. and that even the
dlsorderly portion of the population
has no animus against the army, upon
whose services the emperor would, of
course, have to rely in case of serious
outbreak: The Vorwarts, the organ of
the socialists, repeats its appeal to the
members of the party to preserve
ORDER. and al incident that Oc-
the advice given by that paper is not
lost upon It's readers. A youth whose
brain had probably become infiamed by
the recent demonstrations, and also,
probably, by indulgence in strong liq-
uors, created some excitement upon the
street by shouting, Long live
socialism, "whereupOn he was promptly
set upon by number of socialist
workmen who happened to be passing,
and soundly trounced for his pains.
The socialistic members of the munich
pal council of Berlin have made prop
osltlon that the city government begin
various public works for the purpose of
giving employment TO the thousands
now out of work. The people of the
police department today expressed the
opinion that the disorders were now at

CONTRADICT EACH OTHER.
The Stories of the Deacons Do
Not DovetaiI.


Not Doyetail.
CANNES, Feb. 2s.-When Mr.. Deacon
was confronted by Mrs. Deacon yester-
day, the stories told by the husband and
wife were SO contradictory that the
judge declined to release Mr.. Deacon
on parole. Friends of Mr. Deacon
complain of this action and also of the
newspaper attacks upon Mr.. Deacon,
who, they say, because he shot a
Frcnchman, is dubbed a cowardly as
saSsin. Some papers demand the repeal
of the statute justifying the husbands
crime in such cases. Mr. Deacon ap-
pealed to the judge against these at
temptS to prejudice his case. He still
displays forbearance toward his wife
and refuses to bring any criminal charge
against her. Mrs. Deacon fatty denied
that she was guilty of any improperly,
and the rest OF the day was occupied by
the judge in reading the husbands his
tory of the past three years of his domeS-
tic life. Mrs. Deacon replied to the
charges as the story was read and all
her replies were recorded by the court
officials. The scene during the pro-
ceedings was painful one. and MIR.
Deacon was so affected that he had
to retire to his bed Immediately
after the hearing. In adjourning the
case the judge intimated that he was
unable to say when the inquiry would
be concluded. Mrs. Deacon, who was
/ dressed in black, seemed to be quite
comfortable. She watched her husband
anXiOusly as he retired to the prison.

A F renchman Talks on Our Free
Silver Craze.
PARIS. Feb. Ex-senator Clamageran,
formerly minister of finance, said today
to an Associated Press representative:
"The United States is on the downward
track in political economy. as is evil
denced by the triumph of protection
and the growing craze for free
coinage. France had free coinage,
but was forced to abandon it,
but it will not prove more success
full in America, where the question
is agitated in the interest of
silver mines. America is the
richest country in the world and can
afford the experiment of free coinage,
whether it is good or not good; but the
people must not delude themselves with
the idea that Europe will take the silver
money in any shape. especially since the
Mckinley law shuts out European prod
ucts. They may obtain international
silver congresses as often as they want
them, but such conferences would be
without tangible result. Europe has
enough silver already"

ST. LOUIS, Feb. 2S.-Frank Breeze, a
young man employed by the Wyeth
Hardware company, was playing pool
in Porter's saloon when William Fl.

menced 10 curse and abuse him, but
Breeze told him to let him alone, as he
wanted no trouble with him. At this
Delmer drew revolver and fired, but
missed. Breeze started to run out the
back door, when Delmer fired again,
hitting him in the back of the head,
killing him instantly. Delmer escaped,
but if captured will likely be lynched.
