which so insidlously came upon the people

vance has been marvellous since heroic
treatment was accorded it in the House OF

In conclusion Eckels said: "Let me

pursued by the bankers of this country is
due In largest measure the fact that there
has not been greater depression. The
politician and earping critic may
find fault; but the thoughtful ci!i-
zen, unbiased and prejudiced,
seeking neither votes nor notoriety, knows
that the course which has been pursued
here and elsewhere by bankers has pre-
vented panic that would have gathered
within its sweep every business interest in
the country. The experience through W hich

hereafter no party will juggle with the
country's interests for the sake of political
advantage.

FAULKNER'S SCHEME.
1t Is Very Tempting, but 1t Probably
Will Not Work.


WASHINGTON. Sept. IA Faulkner of
West Virginia offered in the Senate to-day
his amendment 10 ;he repeal bill providing
for the coiuage of silver bullion now in
the treasury and the monthly purch a Sc
thereafter of enough silver to coiu 5000, O00
silver dollars. which, together with all sill
yer dollars before coined, shall be legal
tenders.
The repeal bill was then taken up, and
Daniel of West Virginia took the floor in
opposition. He said he would attempt to
demonstrate. as he was confident ne could,
that the worldwide monetary CONFUSION
was due to three principal causatlons-
first, the enormous increase of the debt !;
second, the continued and unprecedented
fall in prices for over quarter of a CEN
tury; third, the cOntempOraneou destruc-
ton of the bimetallic base of credit at the
dictation of the European money kings.
he said more money was needed and the
repeal of the Sherman act would have a
contrary effect. 1t would contract the cur
rency by S50,000.000 per annum. He ia
vored q sound currency, every dollar of
which should be maintained at par witt
every other dollar, and that should consist
of gold, silver and paper money.
In 1892, Daniel said. there were two
opinions. in which there was general con-
currence; first. that the Sherman law
ought to be repealed; and second. that
gold and silver ought to be coined without
discrimination or charge for mintage. He
thought those concurrent opinions should
now be EN- bodied in one act. Referring TO
the intimation of deal between Southern
and Western Senators. he said he enter
taned the financial views long before he
had Intimately associated with the West
erners.
After a brief executive session the
Senate adjourned.

HEMPHILL'S WORK.
1t Will Be to Recover Calvary's Lost
Prestige.

In Presbyterian circles the affairs or
Calvary and St. Johns churches and the
consequences of DIR. Hemphilps TRANSITION
from California to Powell street continue
to furnish much food tor discussion.
Through it all the best front is shown by
the prime factor in the gossip, Rev DR..
Hemphill Severe structures have been
passed upon him verbally and in writing,
but since his first outburst he has resumed
his calm and genial exterior. He talks as
a Christian gentleman should, without re-
sentiment or inVective, and expresses his
affection for friends and foes.
81 have nothing but kind feelings for st.
Johns and its members" he said yester-
day. II hope the church will prosper. and
be blessed. About my salary? | would
rather say nothing.
II don't think there will be any friction
in Calvary, nor that the eighteen who
voted against my call Will try to stir
up strife. We will all work for the good
of the church and try TO restore it to
its former position. When l left there
were over thousand members. Now |
think there are not more thau four hun
dred active communicants. AS TO the re-
port that | desired to change the location
of the church, | can only say that my
views have been moGified and that we will
remain in our present church home. Yes,
all idea of an amalgamatlOn between my
past charge and my present one is relin-
quished."
In speaking of the matter a trustee of
ST. Johns Church said that John Hemp
hills withdrawal will by no means dis
unite the congregation, but on the con-
trary, it will bind it more closely together.
Il am going East" said he, ''in few
days. While in New York | shall see DR..
John Hall and other noted ministers and
will ask them to recommend young
clergyman VINO will make us a good pastor.
w can offer him a good salary
Percy BeamISh, who questioned the
legality of the call from Calvary Church
to DR.. Hemphill on Wednesday evening,
disclaimed any hostility 10 DR.. Hemphil.
He still main tains that the call was lrreg-
ulsr, and he asserts that large number OF
Calvary's members agree with him.
"Ail l wanted was Quare deal" he
said. The only proper way to call a
Presbyterian congregational meeting is by
solution of the session. As the session
had not met no resolution was adopted.
and the personal action of one or two
elders who agreed to call the meeting was
unofficial.
LAS to my other point, it is law Of our
church that only communicates or pew
holders can vote for pastor. OF the 175
persons who voted for DR.. Hemphill, only
sixty had any right TO cast ballot. The
other lis were composed of Sunday-schoCl
children and others, neither members OF
nor contributors to the church. / de-
manded that they should vote by the roll,
but that document was not produced"

AGAINST THE HAPSBURGS.
There Are Threats of Serious Trou-
BILE Now In Bohemia.

VIENNA, Sept 14-The agitation directed
by the young Czechs, which at first had
only the object of securing the recognition
of Bohemia as separate State, similar to
Hungary, and the coronation of the En-
peror as King of Bohemia, recently has
assumed a distinctly anti-dynastic char
acter and it is against this seditious agita-
tiOn that yesterdays DEGREES are chiefly
directed. The nnpatriotic demonstrations
were common on the Emperor's birthday,
and since then the imperial coat Of arms
and double eagles over the post boxes and
the public Offices in Bohemia have been
despatched with filth and the Austrian
flag has been publicly insulted. The
twenty-second anniversary Of the publica-
tion Of the imperial rescript promising
home rule to Bohemia was the occasion of
fresh agitation. The officials who dis
solved the disloyal meetings were hooted
and the Government thereupon decided to
issue yesterdays DEGREES. which were
placarded on the walls at o'clock in the
morning. the billposters being protected
by the armed police.

TO FORCE A VOTE.
Mr.. Voorhees, Becoming
Impatient.
HE WILL ALLOW TWO WEEKS
But in the 1eantime the Silver
Senators Have Not Been
Heard From.

WASHINGTON, Sept 14-Voorhees said
TO a representative of the Associated Press
to-day that be was still determined 10 press
his repeal bin to as early consideration as
possible. at is necessary" he said, "to
observe the cOurtesies required by the
traditions and the rules of the Senate, and
l really believe, by showing due regard to
these points, we shall be able to make
greater progress than If we violated them.
The Senators who oppose the bill must
soon come to see that we have been acting
with exceptional liberality, and l am sure
that sort of conduct will have its effect
upon them. There is undoubtedly scope
yet left for considerable legitimate debate.
aud there are no means, II there were
disposition, of pressing the question TO
vote before every Senator has had op-
p0rtunity 10 say what he may wish to say.
We have not really consumed as much
time in the discussion of this question as
the country seems to think, and l have
every reason to believe we shall be able
to reach vote in a comparatively short
time"
Pressed to say how long the time would
be, he named two weeks as the limit TO
debate. After that, if Speech-making
continued, it would indicate a purpose to
filibuster. and he did not believe that any
tactics for simple delay GOULD be long pur-
sued, nor did he think there would be any
disposition among the opponents of re-
peal, except, possibly, from the Senators
of the siver-producing States, to unneces-
sarily consume the time OF the Senate !;
but those Senators cuuld not expect to
continue the contest long without the as
sistance OF Senators from other parts Of
the country.
Replying to a question as to how he ex-
pected to bring the matter to a close,
voorhees, said with legitimate speech
making. Any other way the Questio
would resolve itself into one of physical
endurance, and he expected soon to ask the
Senate TO hold longer daily sessions, and,
indeed, continue them into the night. He
thought this course would be justified
after this week, and would move i'll this
direction. with this specific end in view,
within the next three or four days.
Asked what he thought would be the
disposition of the Senate to compromise
on the line Of the Faulkner amendment,
Voorhees, replied that he did not believe
there would be any amendment of tie bill.
and he was of the opinion the silver men
would show greater strength in their vote
in opposition to straight repeal bill than
upon any other proposition which could be
brought before the Senate in connection
with the present legislation.
Regarding published statement in New
York that he had changed his position and
would vote for an unconditional repeal
bill, Senator Vest said TO an Associated
Press reporter to-day, and emphasizing the
statement with considerable warmth, that
it was "a lie manufactured out of whole
CLOTH"
