What Tuesday seemed probability
that the Rock Island would 20 TO Dal-

and it now seems an improbablliiy of the
most decided character.
The Gazette's informant, who said the
road would commence Immediately and
work in that direction, is well up in
railway CIRCLES. but il seems row from
the present aspect Of things he was la
boring under a wrong impression.
What truth Is there in the statement
that the Rock Island will commence i'm
mcdiately aud build to DalllsT was
asked Mr., S. b. Hovey, yice-presdent
and general superintendent of the road.
None whatever was Mr. Hoycy's
reply. In fact, the ncws in ibis morn

heard Of it. The Rock Island Is here,
and here 20 stay. We are not thinking
of building at present"
"rhen there is no truth Whatever in the

"None whatever"
Mr.. Hovcy concluded his remarks by
saying that he had heard nothing Of the
intention of high officials of the road
paying visit to the eity--that is to say
az an early date.

GROVER ON FINANCE

ATLANTA, Ga, Sept. 28-In reply to
a letter from Gov. Northern, asking
The president to give his position on fl
nancial matters. Mr.. Cleveland sent
the following letter:
EXECUTIVE MANSION, WASHINGTON,
D. G., Sept. 25.- 10 Hon w. J. North
er1s-My Dear Sir: hardly know how
to reply to your letter Of the 18th inst.
1t seems TO me that | am quite plainly
on record concerning the fnancinl
question. My letter accepting the
nomination to the presidency. when
read in connection with the message
lately sent to congress in extraordinary
session, appears to me to be very ex-
plicit | want a currency that is stable
and safe in the hands of our people. /
win not knowingly be implicated into a
condition that viii justly make me in
the least degree answerable to any la
borer or farmer in the United States for
the shrinkage in the purchasing power
Of the dollar he has received for a full
dollars worth Of work, or for a good
dollars worth Of the product Of bis toll.
not only want our currency to be of
such o character that all kinds Of dol.
lars will be Of equal purchasing power
at home, bu. | want them to be of such
a character as will demonstrate abroad
our wisdom and good faith, thus placing
upon firm foundation our credit
onong the nations Of the earth. ! want
our financial conditions and the laws
relating to our currency so safe and
reassuring that these who have money
viii spend and invest it in business and
new enterprises instead OF boarding it..
You cannot cure fright BY calling it
foolish aad unreasonable, and you
cannot prevent the frightened man
from boarding his money. ] want
coed, sound and stable money, and a
condition OF confidence that will keep
it in use.
within The limits Of what have
written. am q friend Of silver but l
believe lis proper place il our currency
can only be fixed by a REIMBURSEMENT Of
our currency legislation and the inaug-
uraticn Of a consistent and comprehen-
siye financial scheme. | think such a
thing can only be entered upon profit
ably aud hopefully after the repeal of
the law, which is charged with all our
financial woes. In the present state of
the public mind this law cannot be
built up nor patched in such way as
to relieve the situation.
Il am, therefore, opposed to the free
aud unlimited coinage of silver BY this
country alone, and independently, and
am in favor of the immediate and I'M
conditional repeal Of the purchasing
clause of the so-called Sherman law.
confess am astonished by the oppose
ton IN the senate to such prompt acton
as would relieve the present unfortu
nate stuntion.
MY daily prayer is that the delay
occasioned by such opposition may not
be the cause of plungiug the country
into deeper depression than it has yet
known, and that the democratic party
may not be Justly held responsible for
such a catastrope Yours very truly.
