GOLD BUGS AT WORK.
Unconditional Repeal of The Sherman
Law Demanded by New York
Merchants.
Congress Requested 70 Appoint a Com
mission to Report on tlle Mon
etary Question.

NEW York. July Ga special meet
of the chamber of was held
this afternoon for the purpose Of giving
public expression to opinions Of business
men as to remedies to be applied for the
restoration of confidence in place of the
present disturbed condition of the tinau.
ces. This disturbed condition, says the
call, has been brought about primarily
by the enforced purchases Of useless sill
Yer bullion, and the consequent distrust
of the ability Of the government to pre-
serve a gold standard. Fully Il hundred
members were present when the meet
ing WAS called to order by Alexander +.
Orr. first yice.president, Ia the absence
of President Charles Stewart Smith.
John C!atiin arose and after describing
what he termed the financial panic
through which the country is passing,
he presented these resolutions:
Whereas, tins country has often suf-
fered greatly by reasons Of hasty and ill.,
advised legislation,
Whereas, it is now suffering from the
effects Of the silver purchasing clause of
the sherman act which by creating dis
trust as to the interchHngeahility Of our
currency, DasCu on silver with our cur
rency based on gold. has caused wide
spread alarm and has almost created a
commercial pane, and,
Whereas, in consequence Of this alarm
money Is Withdrawn from circulation,
business is greatly depressed, many mills
and manufactures ale closing or prepar-
ing 10 close and thousands Of laboring
men are about TO be thrown out of en-.
ployment; and.
Whereas. business enterprises will not
be resumed or abOr be steadily employ
ed until money can be obtained by man
ufacturers and by merchants at moder-
ate rates; and,
WHErEAs, Ordinary interest rates can
not be rXpected until confidence in the
stability Of all the money of the country
shall be thoroughly rc.established. so
that the lender may not fear repayment
in collars less valuable than those he
lends, now be it
RcsOirod. That the repeal Of the silver
purchasing cause Of the Sherman at,
which month by month renders i~ncreas-
lngly difficult the maintenance Of the
parity of each dollar with every other
dollar. is essential to the prompt ~restora.
ton of national prosperity. This cham
Der therefore urges the speedy and I'M
conditional repeal Of such silver pur-
chase clause.
ReSoircd, That in the judgment of
this chamber Il representative commits
sion should be appointed by congress at
its special session about to convene.
which commission should diligently
study the who G body of coinage and
currency laws of the United States aud
of other countries. and report at the
regular session of congress to the end
that a comprehensive plan for a safe and
elastic currency may be carefully ma
tured in the light of the worlds expert

WASHINGTON, July THE treasury
department resumed the purchase of
silver bullion today, buying 100000
ounces at - cents. Offers aggregated
21S,OOO ounces at the same price but all
offers beyond 100000 ounces was de-
cIined. The price of silver bullion in
London today was thirty.four and IA
fraction pence, which at exchange rates
made the New York price about seventy
two cents, but the tendency was down
ward and it is believed at the treasury
that the price of silver next Monday in
London will be more than today. This
is the explanation why SO little of the
amount offered was purchased.

Another Bank Failure.

Lac SUEUR, Mimi, July S.-The bank
of LIE Sueur closed it's doors at 9:3O this
morning. There was no run on the
bank. The closing was voluntary to

the liabilities were about S225,OOO and
assets about the same. The closing was
caused by demand of payment OF per-

is anticipated by other banks.

THE HOME RULE BILL.
As the Critical Point is Nearcd the
DniOnists Become Desperate,

As The Critical Point i, Neared The
unionists Become Desperate.
LONDON, July S.-Having rounded the
dangerous point of the sixth clause of
the home rule bill, the government has
the difficult question of the ninth clause
respecting the representation Of Irish
members at Westminster, before it. The
real debate on this clause will begin
Monday and despite the p~essimestic
prophecies of u~nionists that is the
rock on which Gladstone's majority will
split, prominent supporters of the gov
eminent express confidence that Glad
stones tact and ingenuity will again
prove equal to the task. At a cabinet
meeting Wednesday it is reported it was
decided to retain 50 Irish members with
power to vote on all subjects. Heneage
has introduced an amendment providing
for the total exclusion of the Irish, but
the unioDists themselves are divided on
this point and several of them will vote
against it. In view of this divergence of
opinion among unionists as to what line
to take against the clause, Balfour and
other leaders held a private meeting
yesterday to select an amendment upon
which all unionists will be asked to con
their forces.

Several Rooms In the Mormon Temple.

The basement of the Mormon temple is
divided into several apartments, the larger
one being - by 81 feet. containing a hap
tismal font. The floor is tiled with marble,
polished to the highest degree OF perfection,
while the ceiling is of n sky blue tint. The
font is of bronze, and like that in the tenn
pie at Jerusalem rests on the backs of u
oxen, also of bronze, which stand with their
faces to the east, west, north and south.
Grand and impressive as this apartment is
it is mediocre when compared with some of
those on the upper floors. One in particular
is deserving of special mention.
Resplendent in blue and gold is this
magic chamber, while the floor is of blocks
of wood not more than an inch square,
brought from all portions of the world by
the missionaries sent out by the church
Another apartment adjoining is still more
beautiful. White and gold are used, and
the effect is to dazzle the eye. The tapes
tries are all OF the purest white and are
rare and costly. All the basins and ewers
are of the finest onyx, delicate in tint, and
in such profusion that the sight would drive
a dealer in this product insane with envy.
To be permitted to look upon the mag
nificent work for an hour is said to be worth
a year of ones life and trip across the
world.-C. NJ. Jackson in Harper's Weekly.

Encourasementof Home Labor.

There is considerable talk among
local stonecutters, occasioned by the
fact that the contracts on the stone
work on different buildings in the
tri-cities have been let to contractors
who have the stone cut in Chicago
or elsewhere. The new Moline High
school contract for stone work was
let to parties who have the stone cut
in Chicago. The men feel that in
contracts for public structures that
a proviso should be included to have
the stone cut here as there are some
90 stone cutters in the tri-cities.
The stone work for the proposed new
No. 4 school building, it is stated,
would give employment to Is or 20
men during the summer.

A FEARFUL FATE.
Edwin Valid Run Down by n Motor Car in

Mr.. and Mrs. Emil Valid of Moline,
was run down by motor car ~ of the
Union line, on Sixth street and
Fourth avenue in Moline. at 4:3O yes
terday afternoon and killed. Edwin
and boy named Otto Hager were
riding on the step of an ice wagon
west on Fourth avenue. The Valid
boys home faces that avenue, and
his mother going to the door, called
him. As the boy started to obey, he
did not observe the approach of mo-
tor car AZ east bound, and as he
reached the track the ear struck him
and the wheels passed over him. He
was picked up and carried into the
house, where Drs. Vessel and Arp
attended him. An examination
showed the skull to have been frac-
tured, one side of the head almost
scalped, the right leg and arm
crushed and the body terribly
bruised. The little fellow fingered
until 5:45 p. m, when death came to
his relief.

oner Eckhart to hold the inquest and
he empanneled Il jury composed of
:. W. Searle, foreman, w. q. Heider,
Nels +. Petersen. John Colsen, f.
l.. Eastman and II. Irving and the
evidence of eye witnesses was taken.
The testimony of Otto Hagen the
companion of the Wald boy set forth
that the two were on ,he steps of a
covered ice wagon getting a ride and
4 piece of ice. Eddie's mother called
him and he started for home when
the car ran over him. \ either boy
saw the car as the wagon was COW
cred. The VALID boy was obliged to
cross the track to 90 home.
The testimony of Conductor y. NJ.
Wexford. in charge of the car. testi-
fled as to the speed at which Motor
man j. l.. Pratt was running the car,
which was about half speed.
II. Irving testified to the ear not
having life guard attachment.
The jury returned verdict to the
effect that the boy met his death by
being run over by car ~ of the
Davenport & Rock Island Railway
company.
