Colorado Summer School of Science and
Philosophy and Languages was formally
opened this afternoon in an address by
Rev. Richard Montague of Colorado
Springs. which was followed by an ora
tion. delivered by Professor Andrews,
member of the International Monetary
Conference.
Professor Andrews began by describing
the effect OF the demonstration of silver
in 1873 and portrayed the demonetiZation
policy rs the hardest, saddest blow to
human welfareIever delivered.
II do not say that all stagnation Of in
dustry since 1873 came from the fall in
prices following the decentralization of
silver" he said, "but firmly believe that
this had more to do with 1t than any other
single cause. Another effect of the de-
monetization was the schism OF the world
into gold-using and siver-using hemi-
spheres with no par exchange between us.
The Chinese wall built between the gold
world and the silver world, the professor
said, Is worse than any tariff ever created.
This is what palsed England's trade with
India and all the East. and led at last TO
the recent attempt to place India upon a
come TO pass would be a striugency, arising
from the fact that gold would be instantly
withdrawn from circulation. while silver
would be coined to, take its place slowly.
Our country, the speaker declared, would
derive great benefit from siding with the
silver nations. Besides. the United States
would take its place as the one great man
ufacturing nation of the silver world and
would derive from the position an i'm
mense gain, which England has hitherto
reaped but has largely lost by the demon
etization of silver.
But" said Professor Andrews. "the
shadows after all are so dark that it would
be better in my belief not to attempt the
free coinage of silver now, but to wait a
little longer, in our present unhappy and
anomalous condition, till we bring Great
Britain TO join US 10 remodelng the mon
etary system. But how can we induce

The days shift went to work as usual
this morning. All went well until noon,
when the workers at the pit mouth were
startled by muffled explosion and clouds
of dense smoke came rolling up the main

a party and descended slowly through the
smoke. They were driven back repeatedly
and eventually gave up their purpose Of
penetrating to the workings before the
foul gas should clear away.
After taking up the bodies found at tie

TAMMANY'S CELEBRATION.
Letter Frome President Cleveland
Read at the Exercises.

NEW YORK. July 4.-The New York
Tammany Society to-day celebrated the
one hundred and seventeenth anniversary
of the nations independence. Mayor Gill
roy, grand sachem of the order, opened
the proceedings with words of welcome.
The declaration OF independence was read
and then came Speaker Crisp. He began
with burst Of patriotism. Among other
things ne said that, although there exist
conditions which have produced uneasi-
ness, uncertainty and stagnation of trade.
the laws which had brought about these
conditions were enacted by the Republican
party against the protests OF Democrats.
When Congress assemblies on August Z, so
for as things can be remeded by legisla-
ton, he is confident that laws will be
enacted which will restore confidence and
bring prosperity again to the nation.
Congressman Benton McMilin of Ten
nessee gave an address bris,ling with
patriotic epigrams and references. The
speech of Congressman Clark of Missouri
was Of the post-prandal order and excited
lots of fun. Hon. Robert E. de Forest OF
Connecticut and Postmaster Charles W.
Dayton also spoke. Congressman John
R. Fellows of New York followed in the
most eloquent speech of the day. 1t was
brimful of glowing sentiment and smooth
and easy dictioD.
Among the letters of regret was one
from President Cleveland to Richard
Croker. In which the President said: "Ii
is day which all true Americans ought
to celebrate as often IS 1t occurs. When.
however, the c0mmemoration of the dis
covery of the land we occupy and the cele-
bration of the day when 1t was conse.
Grated to liberty and popular government
are c0incident, the occasions should
revive and stimulate all ennobling and
patriotic sentiments. which are essential
to the safety and perpetuity of the Ameri-
can constitution. AT such a time il is fit
ting that we should rejoice on the daunt-
less purpose and constant devotion that
thus far have marked out the way of our
great nation. We should lose the most i'm
pOrtant lesson of the day we celebrate if we
forgot that the labor and diligence of those
ntrusted with the Government must be
unremitting and always patriotic. There
never has been a time when our country
men should be more soberly reminded that
they cannot safely delegate the duties and
obligations of citizenship, nor neglect to
cultivate an individual and personal inter-
est in public affairs. If those who now
celebrate the anniversary of American in
dependence guard against the sordid
struggle for unearned wealth that stified
patriotism; if they exact from the public
servants the strctest accountability in tn e
performance of public duties; if they hold
fast to the American ideas that work is
honorable and economy is virtue; if
they insist that there should be honesty
and cleanliness in politics, and if they re-
fuse to encourage expedients that endan-
ger the foundation of sound national
finance, those who follow us will joyonsly

Chill, when the lack OF coaling station In
South America made tho matter urgent.
In the experiment made of Sandy Hook

between her and the San Francisco. An in
genious arrangement Of spars connected
with tile cable took oil undue strain from
the vessels. and counterpoise box contain

bag OF coal. which moved IN and down
in a shaft. was able to keep the transmit
ting line taut without parting 1t or causing
strains. The flagship during this proc
ess was towing the Kearsarge ut a good
rate Of speed. 1t was found that In
general n bag OF sand, representing about
200 pounds OF coal. when hauled up from
the hold OF the Kearsnrge, could be run
across tho trolley cable, a distance of 225
feet, to the San Francisco, in about fifteen
seconds, But the time needed for hosting
the coal is to be added, making about two
minutes bag in ALL
The Board Of Officers who examined the
system reported that 1t has shown such
merit rs to warrant thorough trial by n
properly equipped collier in coaling man
of-war in moderately rough weather" The
sea proved to be too calm and favorable in
the recent test:
1T is certain. however. that ships in . moder
ate seaway could not tow at such close distance as
200 foot and that much greater strain would then be
brought upon the jackstay. II tho towing distance 10
increased. as would seem necessary In seawny. the
height of tho jackstay and platform above the deck Of
the collier must be increased accordingly"
A regularly equipped collier would have q
hosting apparatus by which the rate Of
transfer could be Increased to one bag a
minute. or double the speed made on this
trial" This would still be slow delivery.
but perhaps two trolley cables might be
worked ut once.
Such a system, II successful, would be
valuable. and yet it would neither take the
place OF acquiring coaling stations nor
reduce the Importance Of them. Golfers
might be intercepted by an enemy. or
might not be on hand in time at an ap-
pointed rendezvous. Besides, a coaling

repair. and reftting, capable Of being
fortified. The trolley wire might be OF
great value In allowing a squadron to re-
coal rapidly from golfers attached to it
or following it under convoy, but the
need Of footholds ashore for replenishing
fuel and for repair would remain. In II
future war. as Lord BRAssEY has recently
said. 1.-THE country which possesses the
most numerous coal stations and the best
situated as regards trade routes. will have
great advantage" This advantage we
must not forego. even in seeking partial
and temporary substitute for it through
devices for coaling at sea.

Coaling War Ships at Sea.

The experiment made recently off Sandy
Hook with an apparatus for transferring
coal from one vessel to another in a
seaway is Of exceptional interest.
The problem OF the fuel supply Is one OF
the most important in modern naval opera
tions. The steaming radius Of war ship.
or the distance she can cruise without
seeking a port. Is determined. IL her ma
chlnery is sound. by the amount OF coal
she carries This Is one OF the great
points of difference between old time
and modern warfare. In tho days of
sails vessel could remain at sea as long
as her provisions. water. and apmuni-
ton lasted. But with steam substituted
for wind as the motive power she must re-
new her fuel when it runs low. and IL coal
cannot be brought to her she must reserve
enough for reaching port where it can be
obtained. This Is matter OF prime i'm
portance with cruisers intended for opera
tons against an enemy's commerce at O
great distance from homo ports. For this
reason. coal endurance has become as mo-
mentous subject OF study as speed. with
those who plan cruisers.
The Importance of the steaming radius
has also grown Of late years. Long after
steam had been introduced sails were kept,
partly as a source of reliance in an accident
to the machinery and partly for econ
omy in cruising where high speed
was not required. But under the sharp
competition for superiority as fighting
machines. war vessels OF late havo more
and more abandoned sail power. until now
the rule rather than the exception among
the leading nations Is to use only military
masts, especially for battle ships. armorcd
cruisers, and other craft of primary rank.
This makes the fuel question serious.
But II to countries like England and
France the coaling problem Is serious, it be-
comes especially SO to the United States
from our entire lack Of colonies in any part
OF the world and our almost total lack OF
coaling stations. With the exception of a
port at Pago Page and Of a grant in Pearl
River harbor which has not yet been used.
We have no foreign stations.
That this lack will be made up as soon
as possible. there Is reason to believe; but
meanwhile our navy has naturally taken a
great. interest in the devices which have
been from time to time suggested for coal
Ing at sea. Such appliances were especially
studied during the recent trouble with
