AGAINST SILVER.
President Cleveland Keep t'p His
Reputation a. an Anti-Sil-
yer Man.
Does He Mean to Favor the Single
Gold Standard and
Ruin?

WASHINGTON. Aug. s. Special to TnE
TRIBUNE. The presidents message was
received by all members OF the house
and senate with the closest attention.
Seldom in the history Of congress has Il
like document been listened to With such
general interest. The president reviews
the extraordinary business situation. and
says:
"These things are principally charge
able to congressional legislation touch
ing the purchase and coinage uf silver
by the general government. This lcgis-
latlon is embodied in the statute passed
July II, 1870, which was the elimination
of much agitation on tho subject ~
vOlved and which may be considered a
truce after a long struggle between the
advocates of free silver coinage and those
Inclined to be more conservative. Tn
doubleday the monthly purchases by the
government of 100000 ounces Of silver
forced under that statute were regarded
by those interested In silver production
as certain guarantee OF its increase in
price. The result, however. has been
entirely ditfr"nt, for Immediately fol.
lowing the spr. nouic aud slight rise the
price Of silver began to fall after the
passage of the act and has since fal,e
to the lowest per cent ever known.
again the president says: Unless
government bonds ara to be constantly
issued and sold TO rcplcnish our cN.
hausted gold, only to he agaln exhaust
ed it is apparent that the operation Of
the silver purchase in force leads in the
direction of the entire substitution Of
silver for gold in tine government
| treasury and that this must be followed
by the payment Of all guvcrnment obli-
cations on the depreC'Htion of silver.
At this stage gold and sil"cr aust part
company and Ine government must fail
in its established policy to maintain the
two metals on parity with each other.
Given over to the exclusive use Of cur
rency, greatly deprecated, according to
the standard Of the commercial world,
we could no longer claim place among
the nations Of the first class nor Ould
orr government claim the performance
of its obligation so far as such obliga-
| tions have been imposed upon it to pro
vide for the use Of the best and safest
money.
The closing paragraphs Of the message
are: 1t was my purpose to summon

rency in Big Lots.
New York, Aug. Aside from the
meeting of congress and it's possible ac-
ton on the silver question, together with
its probable effect on business in general
and the stock market in particular, the
principal subject Of discussion was the
continued scarcity of all forms of cur
rency notes and specie In fact, accord.
ing to well-intormed bankers, that is in
some respects the most serious question
of the day. Money brokers were today
paying as high as to- per cent. for
currency and wee getting as high as 81 i
for it in big !ots. One peculiar feature
today in connection with this scarcity of
cash was that the money brokers we're
bidding from { to . of / per cent, for
gold to arrive, Notwithstanding that the
rate of foreign exchange today did not
warrant the importation of gold. Sight
sterling was in demand today in conse-
quence Of the offering of premium for
gold.
At the sub treasury today il was said
that there was an abundant supply of
currency on hand which banks can have
in exchange for its equivalent. Clearing
house loan committees issued SlOl5OOO
more loan certiiicat' S today, making the
total amount now outstanding $1,000
600.

Evidently stewards Plan.

CRY or MENIco, Aug. There is IA
project on foot here to unite all the
Latin-Amcrican nations in the monetary
league to resist the depreciation of silver.
1t is asserted that while silver has de-
clned in obedience to natural laws. yet
the depression is out of all proportion to
what it should be and debtor nations
should unite in order to defend their in
terests against conspiracy. Public opin
ion here would favor entering into mon
etary league with the United States,
transferring the trade of Latin. America
largely to Americans, only asking ON the
part of the United States free entrance

iYnCHBURG, Va, Aug. The popu-
lists of Virginia have met in state con
yention. Nearly 500 delegates were in
attendance, and there was not a negro
among them. Among the visiting states
men was Congressman Pence from Colo

Pence addressed the convention. In
the course of his speech he bitterly as
sailed Mr. Cleveland and Secretary Car
Isle, quoting from the speech of the lat

denunciation of the financial policy to
which he seems to be- now committed

4 FINE HERD BURNED.
Heavy Loss of In Vice President Morton
~ AT His New York Farm.


VA RHrNEcLIFF, n. Y, Aug. Ninety
eight Guernseys Of the noble herd owned
! by Levi p. Morton have been burned to
death. There were ninety-hye cows,
several Of them the finest of their kind
IN the world, and three bulls, one Of
them without his equal anywhere.
The fire, the origin of which is still a
mystery, destroyed totally buildings Gov
ering three acres on Mr.. Mortons LOCO
acre estate, Ellerslie, near here. The
hugo barn, with ninety-eight Guernsey
broilers; the incubators, with 5000 eggs,
coo of which would have hatched today,
were burned to the ground. The loss, as
nearly as can he estimated by Mr.. Nor.
tons men this evening, rs from Sl2J,000
to Sl50,O0O.
Apart from tho actual money loss the
obstruction Of tho cattle which have be-
come famous wherever Gurrnseys are
bred, is a bitter blow to Mr.. Morton, and
will be felt as Il calamity by all cattle
breeders, for the animals came from es-
tabllshed strains Among the cattle
lost are the great bull Midas. pronounced
\ BY many the finest bull in the world;
the bull Safeguard, almost as well
known; the bull Acetyl, the cows Bella
luce, Midas dam; Bienfatrice, the finest
COW in the stable one of the best and
most typical Guernseys ever shown, and
never beaten in any show for points or

He Was the Fool Killer.

Two friends, newspaper men, went on an
excursion. While on Il railway train they
were moved to mischief by the comical ap-
pearance of a country looking fellow who
sat near.
'How long did it take you to write Para
disc LostP'" one of the friends asked, ad
dressing his companion.
"Oh, about two weeks, but was busy
on the Course of Time good bit of the
while You worked quite awhile on the
Vicar of Wakefield didn't your"
well, yes, quite awhile. Oh, could

done by certain time, and hanged if |
didn't write a volume week for six week 5
After that took it easy and didn't write
more than volume in two weeks"
They glanced occasionally at the coun
tryman and Uttered gleefully. Pretty soor
the fellow got up, approached them, and
said:

you fellows. | wanted to have some fur

he was about he seized them in Il strona

heads together; and then, as the train hat
reached station, he bowed politely and
got off.-Arkansaw Traveller.

~ see" remarked well known man
about town the other day, that VIC are in
the midst OF another of those periodic out
breaks against tipping, but 1t won't make
bit Of difference. Tipping will go on Just
the same. Some few people will conceive
the notion that rs q matter OF principle
they ought to refrain from tipping, and
they will try IL for few days and then will
conclude that for the sake Of their own
peace OF mind they'd better tip. They'll
continue confirmed 'tippers' for the rest OF
their days.
1.-THE fact Is It requires more courage to
scbcl against the tipping system than 1t
does to revolt against almost any other so-
eial custom. know whereof speak, for
Two been there and I'll Just tell you how
It works. When you withhold the usual
tip. you become painfully aware that the
waiter thinks you are frightfully mean.
You would like to explain to him that you
are only making noble and heroic fight
for principle, but Of course that is out OF
tho question. Now, nothing hurts mans
pride so much as TO feel that somebody
thinks him mean. He could better endure
being thought gambler, or 'bunko steer
err or n man who didn't pay his debts
You become afraid to look that waiter III
the face. Next time you dine somewhere
else end again incur the odium OF unde-
served contempt. You don't get hardened
TO it; you bate 1t worse each time, aud after
Il has gone on three or four days you just
say to yourself: Hang it, or something
else, this thing has got to stop cant
stand having people think lam mean when
know amt Devil take the principle Of
the thingp Then you resume tipping and
are happy once more. New York Herald.
