SENATOR sTEwART's SPEECH

Tho following is the speech de-
livered before the Winnemucca Con-
vention by Senator Stewart:
Mr.. CHAIRMAN AND FELLOW CITI-
ZENs: ! rejoice 20 know that the peo-
pie Of Nevada have resolved 10 act for
themselves; that they are tired of the
trickery and the fraud o. using the
names Of Republican and of Democrat
TO serve the purposes OF a corrupt and
oppressive gold ring. Both Of those
uames have been used for this vile
purpose 80 long that they have be-
come Odious to homes. men.
call to mind the fact that Grover
Cleveland, in 1884. WAS elected by the
people on a free coinage Platform.
After his election and before he was
inauRurated he immediately cou-
menced al active campaign for the
destruction OF silver, and exerted the
entire power Of his administration to
that end. In 1868 the Republican
party adopted platform which de-
Clared that it was in favor of the use
Of both gold and silver as money and
condemned the Democratic party for
it's efforts to demonetize silver.
MIR. Harrison, after he was elected,
followed the example Of the admins
tration which his party condemned,
and has ever since lent his entire aid
and force to destroy silver. The first
bill that was introduced and which
met the approval Of the President, so
far from recognizing silver as money,
which was known as the Window
bullion redemption bill, proposed to
allow bullion to DO deposited in tho
treasury and bullion certificates is
sued thereon, which certificates were
to be redeemable in bullion. This bill
was defeated. A bill was extorted
from the President, which is now the
law on our statute book, increasing
the purchase of silver bullion and the
issuance OF treasnry notes thereon
II provided that tho treasury depart
mont should coin silver to provide for
that redemption. The President now
declares that he will not use silver for
redemption, but will use good money.
The two parties mot again this year
in convention. / was in the Republi-
can convention OF 1888, and drafted
tho plank in the platform relating to
silver (the best could get) and it was
trampled upon by the administration
Although Nevada elected mo an alter
nate TO the Minneapolis convention,
would not go Lhere to be fooled again
(Applause.) Platforms were adopted

and Democratic parties in favor Of

An Anarchist Says He Had Nothing to Do
With the. Destruction Of the Very Restau-
rant.
PARIS, Nov. 7.-Gn Bias today publishes q
letter from the anarchist Meunier who is sup
posed to be In England, declaring that
Francois, who was arrested short
time ago in London on the charge of
blowing up the restaurant of NJ. Very in the Rue
Magenta in April last, had nothing whatever to
do with that dynamite outrage. NJ. Meuner
says that he himself caused the explosion. and
if Francois, proceedings for whose extradition
are now pending in London. is arraIgned in
Paris he (Meunier) will surrender himself to
the authorities.
Both Meunier and Francois we're suspected of
causing the explosion at Very's restaurant and
were arrested. The police. however. concluded
that they were innocent and released them.
Both men disappeared and shortly afterward
the authorities became convinced that they had
made a serious mistake in setting them at lib
erty. as evidence came to light that both of
them were implicated in the outrage. Very's res
taurant, it will be recalled. was blown up on the
eve of the trial in Paris of the notorious Rava-
chol.
The object Of the anarchists was to brighten
the jurors in the Ravachol case They ap-
parently succeeded by this and other means in
intimidating the jurymen, for the latter in
spite of the evidence showing that Ravachol
was the author of several of the dynamite ex-
plosions that caused such excitement and fear
in Paris, and his confession that he was o thief
and murderer. found him guilty of man
slaughter. not murder. He was sentenced to
life imprisonment but subsequently the govern
ment placed him on trial at Montbrisson
on the charge of numbering an old man for the
purpose of robbery. This time he was con-
victed of murder and subsequently he paid
the penalty of his crime on the guilotine
Since that time the blatant anarchists of Paris
have kept themselves comparatively quiet.

Waited for the Train to Kin Her.

CHATTANOOGA, TENY., Nov. IA woman was
killed yesterday by an incoming passenger
train on the Nashville, Chattanooga and st.
Louis railroad under circumstances which seem
to indicate a most dreadful form of suicide. As
the train came in at thirty. mile-an-hour rate
the woman walked upon the track and, paying
no attention to the warning whistles, stood
still until she was struck by the pilot. The
blow threw her over a mile post q distance
of thirty-five feet. Her neck. back, shoulder
and several ribs were broken. and several
minor injuries inflicted. II. her hands she had
a bunch Of chrysanthemums, which she clasped
in the death grip. She was unknown. appar-
emily abou. fifty years of age, and was poorly
clad. The coroner's jury exonerated the rail-
road from blame.

After the Amateur Regatta.
CHICAGO. Nov. Although the movement
inaugurated by the Iroquois Boat Club Of this
city to bring the regatta of the National Asso-
citation of Amateur Oarsmen to Chicago instead
of Saratoga next summer is not NEE ting with
the enthusiastic support Of western rowing
organizations, it is making good Roadway.
Some profess to believe that the Iroquois
Club cannot successfully handle such big af-
fair as the 1898 meeting is sure to be, but the
members are confident they can manage the
meeting in good shape.
On the face Of it the task looks to be impos-
sible, for it is known that there is not body Of
water within a reasonable distance Of Chicago
which combines all the features which 20 to
make a regatta not only a success, but posi-
bility.
Lincoln Park course was discussed, but found
to be altogether out of the question. There
remained but one course. and that was
the body Of water most dreaded in Amer
lea by the oarsmen-Calumet lake, of
Pullman. Shallow and full of weeds
rising nearly to the surface it has proved in
past regattas the pitfall of many an ambitious
sculler whose chances for a win were good until
he got his oars into the holding mess immedi-
ately below the surface. Barring this fatal det-
riment Pullman might be called an ideal regatta
town.
Several meetings were arranged between the
Pullman people and the Chicago interested in
getting the national association to this city.
with the result that the latter were assured

the grand stands overlooking the course,
if they could raise the money neces-
sary to dredge the course deep enough to

The City Railway Company at Columbus,
Ohio, Kept From Laying Track.
COLUMBUS, ONO, Nov. THE City Railway
Company attempted to lay double track rail-
way into Oak street yesterday. 1t being Sunday
the property owners could not invoke the aid of
the court very readily, and in the meantime
the company, much against the property
owners wishes. was likely to get it's
track down. Charles Funston stood on his lot
with a cooked revolver, but was arrested. Mrs.
Funston then took his place, armed with
garden hose. She swept the stream along the
street and drove the workmen off. Women
neighbors did likewise. and soon dozens of hose
pipes we're defending as many lot fronts keep
ing the men from work until Sheriff Guthke
arrived with injunction papers.
Subsequently Superintendent Atchison told
the men to go to work again, but when the
sheriff returned to arrest him he drove rapidly
away. After lively race Of ten miles the
sheriff captured him near Blackjack.
