SILVER IN INDIA.
How Great Hardship Has Been
Worked to the Poor.


LONDON, August In the House
Of Lords to-day the Earl Of Northbrook,
some time Governor. General Of India,
called attention to the existing obsta-
Giles to the importation of manufactured
silver from India, arising from the COM
pulsory hall marking law in England.
He said that the silver in the hands of
the people of India was estimated to
amount in value to from II3o,ooo,-
900 to fI5o, 1000, 900. Owing to the
stoppage Of free coinage of silver by
the Indian Government, the people
were unable to find a market for their
metal and were sustaining enormous
losses The abolition of the hall mark
law in England to-day, with free trade
in articles manufactured from silver,
would, he declared, mitigate the evils
brought about by the stoppage of free
coinage.
The Earl of Kimberly, Secretary of
State Of India, admitted that it was de-
sirable to change the law. The silver
manufacturers in England were, how
ever, opposed to the abolition of the
law compelling their goods to bear the
hall mark He saw no reasons why
various standards of manufactured sill.
yer ought not to exist in England the
same as in other countries.
The Earl of Northbrook moved that
the Secretary of State for India submit
10 the House the papers he had on the
subject, and the Earl of Kimberly
promised that he would do so.

vention of Socialists.
ZURICH, Aug. 7--To-day's session
of the International Socialists congress
was marked by great deal of excite
ment At first there was a heated de-
bate on the question as to whether
Anarchists and Independent Socialists
should be permitted to attend. A
resolution was carried to admit dele
gates only from societies recognizing
the necessity of the organization of
labor concurrently with political action
and the adoption of this resolution,
which was tantamount to the exclusion
of the Anarchists, led to great uproar.
The avowed Anarchist delegates posi-
lively refused to withdraw and several
had to be elected by force. When
order had been somewhat restored the
congress proceeded to the discussion
of agricultural and other items of the
program.

JAMES G. BLAINE is DEAD
Peace Came at Eleven O'Clock
Friday Morning.
Great Crowds Gather Outside ths Home of
the Dead Statesman..Pres!dsnt Har.
rison and Other NotabIes Call.
He Faded Away.

WASHINGTON, Jan. 27.-James G.
Blaine is dead.
James Gillespie Biaine's death, al
though it has removed from the world
character who was prominent in
everything he undertook, caused but
little surprise. The news of it had been
SO long discounted that there remained
but the line of announcement at the
head of this dispatch. 1t was fore
gone conclusion that his battle with
death would be final defeat. The
facts as to his illness have from the
first been studiously concealed through
She official channels of communication.
He was a sick man when he returned
to Washington to settle down for the
winter; death and its bereavements
added more and more to his ailments.
He has grown worse and has continued
on his journey to the grave as fast as
the days would carry him. Science
and skill have furnished him the weap-
ons of defense for a comparatively long
time.
DdeiHS iIolH lilc CFaulc 10 lue TOMB,
Mr.. Blaine's sisstythree years have
been active ones. All the trials aud
triSulations that fall to the lot of pub
lie man have been his AMI have earned
for him the peaceful ending of Il career
which closed when tifc's candle made
its last flicker today.
Mr. Blaine on his death bed was sur
rounded just as he has been almost in
cessantly for weeks by those who were
nearest and dearest to him; in fact it
was only his own family and those very
closely associated with them that have
been permitted to sec or even hear
from him during the last DAYS
of his life. Dir. Johnston was
summoned TO the bedside OF Mr.. Blaine
early this morning, but his presence
was not known to those outside until
about 11:l0, when in company with DR..
Hyatt he left the house.
Both physicians were unusually pale,
and when nccosted by the reporters for

change for the worse occurred. Both
physicians We're hastily summoned and
remained at the bedside until death.
Mr.. Blaine was conscious until n few
moments before death and the end was
so quiet and peaceful that only the ex.
perienced eye of the physicians could
see that the great statesman had ioinei
tho majority.
DR.. Hyatt said that Mr.. Blaine's
death was due to sheer exhaustion. He
was unwilling to make a statement re-
garding the exact disease of Mr., Blaine
until he had received the consent of the
family. He will make a statement to
the public. This will probably be pre-
pared after n meeting of the doctors at
l o'clock. All the immediate members
of tla family and Miss Dodge were at
the bedside when the end CAME
The president received warning of
Mr.. Blaine's approaching end through
10 United Press bulletin which informed
him that Mr.. Blaine could not live
through the day. He Immediately had
the substance of the dispatch tele-
graphed over the departmentwire to
the various cabinet officers. 1t
was a few minutes later only
that the operator at the white house
received another message addressed to
the president announcing: "Blaine is
dead" The cabinet was Immediately
notified and came to the cabinet meet
ing MT the usual hour fully prepared.
Secretary John w. Foster, Mr..
Blaines successor to the portfolio of
state. was about to start for
Watertown. N. y. where he and Mrs.
Foster had planned to spend u week,
when news of the ex-secretary's death
was received at the department.. He
postponed his trip and issued an order
closing the department of state aoday.

Supreme and Circuit ludgas.

PIERRB. S. d., jan. 27.--One OF the
important questions before the lc9isla-
ture touches the supreme and circuit
Judges Bills have been introduced in
both houses and reported favorably in
the senate, raising the pay of supreme
judges to $4,000 and circuit judges to
$500 and as there is small if nny OPP
position they will undoubtedly pass
both houses. There has also been a
determined effort to bring the judicial
elections on the same day with general
elections and thus have another
officer to use in making political
deals. il number of gentlemen,
closely associated with present.jndges
have been here laboring earnestly for
this scheme III would, if carried,
lengthen the terms of the judges full
year, but the scheme is dead. A sub
committee OF the senate Judiciary COM
mittee has reported that the delay is.
unconstitutional, that as the constitu-
ton forbids the elengthening orshorten-
ing of the term more than six months,
the bill could not stand. This sub
committee reports favoring the hold
ing of the election in November, 1893,
and the seating of the Judges in July,
1894. The full committee will undoubt-
ediy agree, and the public viii rejoice
that the Judiciary is to be kept as far
as possible from the s,nirch of politics.
