RALEIGH. N. c., July Ex-senator
Vance last week wrote letter To the
Farmers alliance. which was in reply to
a question as to his position on the silver
law. He said he was unalterably op-
posed to the repeal of the Sherman act.
unless some substitute was provided.
He was severely criticised for the tone of
his letter. and now he replies in another
letter. He says:
The charge that a democrat is at
fuses to favor the unconditional
pends for truth on what the
party laid down in the plat atform at Chi
cago. If promises and pledges amount
to anything, the Chicago platform de
mands the repeal of the law as an OBJ
struction to the free coinage of silver.
THE obvious meaning is, if the law
was out of the way, we could have free
coinage. That is one of the things L
propose to put in place of the Sherman
law, and | propose TO vote against repeal
unless that be done II my party is OPP
posed to that, then the utterances at
Chicago We're intended to deceive. If il
was sincere. then I am trying 10 stand
on the platform. 1t pledges the party TO
the use of both gold and silver without
discrimination. If we cease To coin one
and refuse TO tender it in payment. even
of obligations, which by contract are
payable therein, we do discriminate
against that metal Men of common
sense who are loyal to the purposes they
profess, will not surrender the adVan-
tages of their position. The law now in
existence can be kept thus by non-con-
currence of either the house, the senate
or the president to its repeal, whereas
the Sherman law, once repealed, measures
which are TO take its place would have
to be passed by affirmative legislation
recurring the concurrence of all three
branches of the law-making department.
and no sensible man acquainted with
the situation can believe that these
measures could be passed under such cir
cumstances."

SARATOGA, N. Y, July Ex-senator
James L. Pugh Of Alabama is at the
American resting. He read the recently
published interview with Senator Vest
with intense interest Mr.. Vest is
right" said the Alabamaian Then he
wrote out this as a reflection of his
own views: Senator Pugh says that
''the unconditional repeal Of the Sherman
law would place silver where it was un-
der the act of 1873 and would amount
to a recognition and Endorsement of that
law which every democrat has de-
nounced as a crime. Senator Sherman
would live to see his lifelong financial
policy, for which the republican party
has struggled for twenty years, fully
Vindicated by the votes OF democratic
representatives. The Sherman law re-
pealed Internationally leaves silver at
the mercy of its enemies A majority
of both houses is democratic, and a fear
full responsibility Will rest upon those
democrats who aid in giving the enc
mics of~silver all they want and that
is the unconditional repeal Of the Sher-
man law. The Sherman law is not re-
sponsible for existing conditions 1t is
a perversiOn on that law and not the
law as congress passed it, The banks
made the law that has been executed
and it's execution as made by the banks
caused the mischief A majority of the
democratic senators cannot be driven or
influenced to vote for unconditional re-
peal. A cloture in the senate is not
possibility"

More FRENCH Gunboats.

LONDON, July 31.-The Paris cOrre-
spondent Of a news agency says that it
has been learned from good authority
that France demands as security from
Siam that the terms of the ultimatum
will be carried out, the temporary Gus
tody OF Cf-dTtaIsJJ;if. j town nCas the
gulf of Siam: also that Siam shall es-
tablsh no military stations at certain
named places near the frontier Of Cam
bodia or within n certain distance Of
the Mekong river. a dispatch from
Bangkok, dated Monday, p. m, says:
THE uneasiness among the people
here, far from lessening, is increasing.
Seven more French gun boats have ar
rived at koh-Si-Chang, making total
of thirteen now there. Negotiation are
still going on but the progress made is
not reported. The intentions of the
French are awaited with fear and APP
prehension. Rear Admiral Human,
commanding the French squadron, abs
issued a second blockade notice TO take
effect three days from Saturday.
He will order the British warships Pal
las and Swift now lying off Bangkok, TO
go outside the blockade limits. NJ. Pavie
the French minister resident. has gone TO
Saigon, and Rear Admiral Human is un-
der direct orders from Paris. Unless the
French government interpOses quickly an
attack on Bangkok seems certain. The
trading community is surprised that HUI
mann is still allowed free hand"
The Standard today received the follow
ing dispatch from its Paris correspondent:
Owing to the representatio made TO NJ.
Develle the foreign minister. by Lord Duff
ferin. the British ambassador to France.
the question Of neutral zone between the
French possessions in the Siamese penin-
sula and British Burmah and the Siam
states has been settled satisfactorily. 1t
has been agreed that the French blockade
of the Siamese coast shall be raised i'm
media tely."
No confirmation of the foregoing had
beer received up TO a late hour tonight

PARIS, July 31.-The ambiguous tone
of yesterdays cabinet council in ac-
cepting Slams surreder has excited
much comment 1t is generally under
stood that the tone was adopted for the
purpose of soothing international sus-
capabilities 1t is stated on high
authority that France intends TO take
decisive steps to insure Slams carrying
out the terms of the ultimatum, it is
said, until Frances demands are salts
fled. The French force now present at
Siamese waters is believed to be suf-
ficient TO make the blockade effective
A prominent Paris merchant who owns
warehouses in Bangkok, in an interview
today expressed the opinion that decis-
i've action is necessary to restore the
prestige which France enjoyed in Siam
after the adoption of the commercial
treaty of 1860. French trade has recently
declined heavily he said IN consequence
of English and German enterprises and
intrigues to destroy French influence.
He believed that the strong tone or the
ultimatum would tend greatly To restore
the influence of France in Siam. The
general opinion here is that the issue

to western points, principally of Chi
cago, and up TO noon $150,00O had been
applied for. The loan committee of the
clearing house at the session this
morning issued 2.6SO,0OO additional loan
certificates, bringing the amount out
standing up TO SIS .000, ,000 1t is under
stood that the certificates taken out to-
day are to be used 10 provide for further
importation Of gold. The sub-treasury
was $500. $40 creditor at the clearing house
and received gold in payment
The exchange market opened steady
and subsequently weakened owing to an
increase In the supply of bills of all
kinds; $4S1h@4S3la posted rates. Bank
ers are still figuring on gold imports and
generally agree that the receipts will be
larger within thirty days or so. The
subscription books of the Northern Pa
cific collateral loan trust closed today.
The subscriptions from stockholders
have amounted 10 little or nothing, and
the underwriting syndicate will prac-
tically take the whole $l5,0000 000
The currency movement was again
heavy today, the shipment of the town
being estimated at from 81, 100000 to 81
10000. The demand was from Boston
and other New England points, where
the need for funds seems to be more
pressing. From the sub treasury alone
100000 in silver dollars was sent by
express to the county banks at the re-
quest of their New York correspondents.
There is a growing disposition among
New York bankers To take some ac-
tion looking to a stoppage of the drain.
At considerable inconvenience TO them
selves they have taken out clearing
house loan certificates and sent large
amounts of money so released TO their
correspondents. Some of this money is
either boarded or lent at high rates Of
interest at the expense of New York.
In consequence accommodation was
given to country banks much less freely
than heretofore. The exchange over the
counter was about 100000. and S250,000
was paid out i'm checks. Most of this
was in coin. From San Francisco $50 900
was received by telegraph. Clearing
house loan certificates to the amount of
S2.525.0 900 were taken out. Most of IL, it
was thought, was for use in facilitating
gold imports. which are expected to
reach large proportions within the next
two weeks. The total outstanding issue
OF certificates has now reached S27,975.-
O00 This is the largest amount ever put
into circulation, beating the records Of
1873 and 1890

THE HON. PETER sCHAF.
His Death Occurs at BrooISviIIe Rath-
er Suddenly.

BROOKVILLE, July 31.-Special-
About 9 o'clock tonight the news passed
from mouth to mouth that the Hon
Peter Schaf, who represented the coun-
ties of Franklin. Ripley and Union in
the last Indiana legislature had died
a few moments before at his home in
this city from heart disease
He had been complaining of not feel
ing well during the day, but it was not
nature. Death came in a few minutes
after he was stricken.
He was a self made man in every
sense Of the word. Born in France in
1926, he came TO the United States in
1870 and settled in Kelso township
Dearborn county, this state. In IS4l he
took service as a cabin boy on a boat
running between Cincinnati and Louis
vile. His first trip was on the Ben Frank
lin, the boat that carried Gen. William
Henry Harrison on his way to Wash
ingtOn to take his seat as president of
the United States. For fourteen years
he acted in the capacity of cabin boy,
steward and cook. He came to Brook
Vile in 1870 and took charge of the
Smalley house, a hotel which attained
an enviable reputation among travel
ing men. In 1892 he was nominated and
elected as a democrat to the Office of
joint representative and made a cred
liable record during the last session of
the Legislature.
He was recently appointed a delegate
by Bishop Chatard to the Catholic Co
lumbian congress which meets at Chi
cago in September. The funeral will
probably take place Thursday morning.

making power and cries help us. 1 can
only pray that heaven may direct US TO
do that which is right and for the bene-
fit of our land.
ION the last Fourth of July / heard
an orator down in Virginia say to VAST
audience:
" How is it that France with a popu-
lation of only 10000 600 and a territory
only one-thirtieth as large as ours, can
keep S7O0, 100000 of silver on a parity
with gold? How Is it that she, with a
population mainly composed of ignorant
peasants, can keep gold reserve of
$3.50, 000, 900 and be able to loan England
$15 600 600 as She did at TIE time of the
Barring Bros failure? What is the
matter with our statesmen that we
can't do that? Are we not better, then.
than these Frenchmen? What is all
this talk Of our inestimable material
wealth that we hear so much about?
Where are our statesrnen. where our
financiers?
Now that is the lSird of argument
that reflects the popular mind upon the
money question. How fgill it be possi-
BILE to convert the nation to a faith in
monometallism-to single gold stand
ard?'.

HUGE CONSPIRACY.
Banks and other New England In
stitutiOns Are Victimized.

NEW YORK, July 3O.-The Worlds
Boston special says that huge con-
spiracy has been unearthed. whereby
seventy-three banks and banking insti-
tutions in New England were victimized.
The story is to the effect that certain
employees Of the Northern Pacific ele-
vator company of Minnesota issued ST.
500, 900 worth of froged duplicate certifi-
Gates for grain on storage in country
elevators. owned by the concern, where
the inspection is not so strict as at the
terminal elevators. These forged Ger
tificates were deposited with eastern
banks as collateral About 100000 was
secured in New England and the bal
ance in New York. Some Of the east
ern holders of the paper became sus-
picious and on an investigation being
made the true state of affairs came TO
light The stockholders of the elevators
were dumfounded when the facts came
to their notice and offers Of settlement
with the banks were at once made and
terms of compromise offered. The COM
pany was then reorganized as the Lake
Superior elevator company, with George
Cook, secretary of David Dows x Coz
New York. as president. The terms Of
fered TO the banks were so per cent.
cash the remainder to be paid in five
annual payments. A committee of bank
ers whose institutions hold large blocks
of the elevator certificates was appoint
ed TO consider this proposition. 1t is inn
possible to say exactly what course the
bankers will pursue they are loath
to talk, and in fact they have done all
I'm their power to keep the whole affair
from the public.
