IT looks as though President Clevc-
land intended to oarry out the Chicago
platform, |. O., repeal the purchase clause
OF the Sherman act and the tax on state
bank issues. There is NO doubt that we
are approaching a change in our bank
ing system. Government bonds upon
which the issue of national bank notes
is based will soon all be redeemed, and
congress will then be forced to legislate
upon this question. Perhaps this is .as
good n time as any to grapple with 1t.
The outcome will be a return to first
principles-gold and silver, and paper
based on them, the money Of the United
States. National banks, or state banks,
or no banks of issue at all, gold and silver
will still form tho basis of oil values.

PARISH COUNCILS.
The Liberals Win in the Days Divis-
ions in the Lower House.

London, Nov. 22.-ln the house of COM
mons to-day William Rathbone, liberal,
moved to amend the parish councils bill
by providing separate representation of
land and house owners and other voters
with a view to a direct division OF the
rates between owners and occupants.
G. j. G0schen, liberal unionist, formerly
chancellor Of the exchequer, argued that
there was nothing in the amendments
that was essentially opposed by the lib
erals. Some such arrangement as was
proposed was expedient and fair He
thought the principle of the amendments
sound.
Sir William Vernon Harcourt, chancel-
lor of the exchequer, said the committee
had already arrived at decision regard
ing the electors mentioned in the bill, and
therefore the present discussion was a
waste of time. 1t was out of the question
TO create separate electorate.
THE HOUR OF MEETING.
Sir Richard Paget, conservative, moved
to omit the clause providing that the
parish meeting shall begin no earlier than
& o'clock and later than s p. m. He
thought the councils ought to fix their
own time.
Mr. Fowler objected. The government,
he said. wanted to fix the time so that
the hum bleSt elector could attend.
Arthur Dyke Acland, vice president of
the committee of the council, demanded
that the government should not give way
on this point, because the hours Of meet
ing must be fixed so that laborers could
attend.
A division was taken on Mr.. Paget's
notion and the government won with
majority OF lib.
Mr.. Rathbone withdrew his amend
ment.
Another amendment offered from the
conservative benches was objected to by
Henry Fowler, president Of the local gov
ernment board. He complained of the
obstacles that the opposition was placing
in the way of the progress of the bill.
Edward Stanhope, conservative, form
ery secretary of state for war, protested
against Mr.. E'owler's accusation
The proposal was rejected bya major
ity of "a votes.

ToPEKA's PosTmAsTER.

The Democrat Appointed III April
Last Removed for Cause.
Washington, Nov. 22,-President Cleve-
land this morning appointed Andrew j.
Arnold postmaster at Topeka, Kan, vice
Frank S. Thomas removed. Mr. Thomas
was appointed postmaster in April last,
and was removed in consequence of the
disapproval by the department Of certain
acts of his in connection with the recent
removal of a number Of carriers and
clerks in the office at Topeka. It appears
that Mr.. Thomas made charges
against the employees and upon
his statement the CHARGES were
approved and the dismissal of the
carriers aud clerks ordered. Subsequent
investigation discovered TO the depart
ment officials that there was at least
another site to the question. and this,
taken together with the posting of a
notice in the Office at Topeka that the dis
missal of the men named was "by order
of the postmaster general, " instead of
stating that it Yves "upon the approval of
the postmaster general of the postmaster's
recommendation" led the department
authorities to make the change.

PowDERLY REELECTED.
j. r. Sovereign, of Iowa Was Only
Six Votes Behind the Victor.

Philadelphia, Nov. 22.-The anticipated
test of strength between the Powderly
and anti-Powderly factions in the gen
eral assembly of the Knights of Labor,
materialized at this afternoons session,
and as was expected, General Master
Workman Powderly come out on top, be-
ing reelected general master workman
by vote of 20 to 90.
This, it is claimed, foreshadows the de
feat of Mr.. Powderly's enemy, Secretary
treasurer Hayes, an election for whose
Office will be held tomorrow. It is not
certain, however, that MIR. Hayes will be
a candidate for reelection
After the adoption of the finance COM
mlttee's report generating MIR. Powder
ly, A. w. Wright and Mr. Devlin. reso-
luton was adopted declaring their Offices
vacant.
Then came the election of Mr.. Pow
derly Congressman Davis, Mr.. Pow
derly T. B. Mcclure, and J. II. Sover-
eign, of Iowa, were placed in nomination.
Messrs. Mcclure and Davis withdrew.
Mr.. Sovereign, who was not present, was
nominated by the Hayes people, and his
popularity was shown by the close brush
he gave Mr.. Powderly, ne polling 10 votes
and Mr.. Mcclure l. The POwderly peo-
pie claim that Mr. Sovereign is q close
- nv VI vi olAtA bAldO nc WOultl
not have allowed the use of his name had
he been present.
Mr.. Powderly's victory gives him the
privilege of naming eight candidates,
four of whom are to be elected members
of the general executive board. It is
certain that he will press the reelection
of A. w. Wright, Mr.. Devlin and Mr..
Davis of the present board. There is a
possibility of T. B. Mcguire being the
fresh man.
If Mr.. Hayes does not run for secretary
treasurer it is expected the Hayes men s
candidate will be j. G. Schonefarber, of
Baltimore Charles Martin, of Tiffin, o..
will probably be the Powderly candidate.
There was no opposition to the re-elec-
tion of General Worthy Foreman Cava-
nauph.

ting in the riot of Sept 20, were found

ment charged with a misdemeanor, and the
only one who has not been represented by

and Sergeant H. H. Griffin. under in
dictment as accessories before the fact to
the hanging of the negro, was begun to-
day and the decision upon a motion to

miles from Augusta on the Savannah
river the committee found 12-
foot solid rock dam running en-
tirely across the Savannah river
This they said was contrary to
the declarations of a convention held at
Buford, s. C., l06 years ago. The COM
mittee recommended that a committee be
appointed at once by the governor TO act
with the fish commissioner to have re-
moved any distractions impeding the free
passage Of fish in the river and that this
Investigation extend all the way from
Augusta to Savannah. Both reports were
referred TO a special committee.
AIMED AT THE sCALPERs.
Mr.. King, of Fulton, introduced bill
this morning which directs that no one
shall sell tickets, except at licensed rail
road ticket offices. In order to protect
purchasers, the bill provides that rail-
road must redeem any unused portion of
a ticket at the same proportionate prices
that it cost. Thus, If man buys ticket
to Savannah, and stops over at Macon, he
can there sell the unused coupon to the
railroad. If passed, it will not go into
effect for ninety days.
Mr.. TatuIn, of Dade, introduced a bill
to enlarge the powers of the railroad COM
missioners of the state of Georgia, so as
to authorize and empower them TO re-
quire any railroad company, owning or
operating any line Of railroad in the state,
TO construct side tracks

bill to require from all dealers in cotton
and other futures, and all bucket shops,

of which has attracted the attention of
the state for twenty years, made its re-

HEROES OF THE GALE.
over 200 Persons Rescued by English
Life Saving Crews.

London, Nov. 22-During the recent
gales the life boat crews at the various
stations on the coast responded TO sixty
signals for assistance. They saved at
least 200 persons from drowning. The
work of the life savers is meeting with
the highest praise on all sides.
Stories of shipwreck and loss of life
continue TO be received here. II would be
impossible to even approximately esti-
mate the number Of persons who met
death in the great storm, but there is no
doubt it Is very large. A dispatch from
Boston, Lincolnshire, states that the
British ship Rolto, bound for Buenos
Ayres, was picked up derelict at sea and
towcd to that port
The bark was dismantled and her boats
were gone. Her decks also gave evidence
of the rough weather through which she
had passed He salvors found dead boy
on the bark. IL is thought the crew
abandoned the vessel in the small boats
and was lost.
The German bark Heltar foundered of
Ymulden. Part Of her crew were saved.
The others, including the captain, are
missing.

FoRFEITs ITS CHARTER.
The Equitable League of Americs
Given It's Death Blow.

Baltimore, Nov. 22.-The Equitable
League of America received it's death
blow to-day Judge Harlan, of the su-
perior court handed down his anxiously
awaited decision in the quo warranto
suit brought by the state. 1t records a
total defeat for the league, the Judge
holding that its charter had been for
feited and that receivers should be ap-
pointed to wind up its affairs. The decis-
ion affects 1900 members in Maryland
and other states.
The suit was brought by Attorney Gen
eral Poe at the instance of Gov. Brown,
to decide whether the league had abused
its corporate privileges.
The Equitable League was started in
1886 as a death and sick benefit order.
Subsequently it issued seven year endow-
ment policies for 81, 900 each in ignorance
of the fact that its charter did not give
the right to do this.

sPAIN's ELECTIONS.
HALF the Electorate Abstains From
Voting.


Voting.
Madrid, Nov. %. - In The municipal
elections held throughout Spain on Sun
day last, half the electorate abstained
from voting
A notable feature Of the elections was
gains by the Carlists. They have gained
seats even outside the northern provinces
where they have always been strong. The
defeat Of the republican candidates Is at
tributed to a division IN the party and the
abstention from voting on the part Of
the federalists and Zorillaists
The results are generally considered as
successes for the government. In Madrid
IS mOnarchists and 10 republicans were
returned.
In Valencia, Huelva and Toledo all the
monarchist candidates were elected and
in eight other cities they secured MAORI
ties in the municipal councils.
In Palmyra the council is equally di-
vided between the monarchists and re-
publicans.
The republicans have majority in the
councils of Leon and Badajoz.
