Senator Allison Talks About the
Monetary Conference.

Senator Allison Talks About the
Monetary Conference.
New York, Dee. Ex-senator w. B..
Allison, who was one of the American
delegates to the international monetary
, conference recently held at Brussels,
has arrived in New York. Speaking
about the monetary conference, Senator
Allison said:
'In some respects it was very satIsfac-
tory: in others it was not. Ii you ask
! me for tangible results | must admit
that there are few. But breaking the
ground, you know. is almost as i'm
portanL as building the house! This
much, however, is certain: That the
delegates who took part in this confer
ence, and who were all men of fine in
telligence. went away in hopeful,
earnest frame of nina, more than ever
! convinced Of the Importance may
say the necessity Of taking some gen.
eral action in regard to this vast mon
etary question. That convention in
itself l consider most encouraging
sign, for there is nothing so hard to
! combat and so fatal to advancement as
ignorance and apathy"
And how about the repeal of the
OHcIllldii oCl. DO yOu IiIlHh any dCLibu
will be taken by the present congress-"
The senator smiled again. mo; we
don't propose to deprive our friends, the
enemy, Of The pleasure of arranging
that little matter as they may think
best. OF course, don't know anything
about it, but have strong impression
that the Sherman act will not be inter-
fered with by the present congress"
And after the next congress meets
will they be able 10 take any action
touching on the monetary system Of the
country during the recess of the inter-
national conference? Was any agree
ment entered into on that point?"
None at all; in fact it was specific
ally stated that any one of the countries
represented was free to alter its none
tary system during the recess in any
way it might sec fit, according to its im-
mediate necessities or advantages.
There was nothing done by the confer
ence which would prevent either the
United States from repeating The Sher-
man bill or India from demonetiZing
silver"
Senator Allison will remain in New
York until Monday, when he will 20 to
Washington. Senator Jones is still in
Brussels. Henry w. Cannon is in Ge-
noa and Prof. Andrews and eX-Gov.
McCreery are also on the other side.

BOUGHT FOR A QUARTER.

ST. JOSEPH, Mo-, Dec. Yesterday
Thomas Carroll, former resident Of
Easton, but now of Colorado. returned
home OH visit and called at the house
of Eli Lawless. prominent farmer, to
renew his acquaintance with Miss Annie
LaWlesS. who was little girl when he
went away. In laughing manner he
offered Mrs. Lawless a quarter for her
daughter. Thinking he was joking she
accepted the money, and the girl, in a
spirit of fun, consented also. Carroll
was in earnest. however, and, coming to
st. Joe, he secured a marriage license.
Returning he demanded that the cere-
mony take place at once. Under what
she claims was an uncomfortable i'm
pulse the girl consented and they were
married. AS soon as the ceremony was
over the bride left him and went home,
refusing to have anything more to do
with him. Carroll left for Colorado this
morning.

SYSTEM FEDERATION.
After Three Days Conference the
Heads of the Railroad Orders
Reach an Agreement.
Members of the Various Orders on
Any One Line May Decide on
Amalgamation.

CEDAR RAPIDS, TO-, Dec. 31.-"Sys-
tenn federation" was agreed upon by
representatives of the organized rail-
road employees in conference in this city
today. The term is used in contradis-
tinction to national declarations, and
means that members of the various
orders on any one system of road will
be left to decide for themselves
whether or not they will unite, and
such action will lie binding upon them
alone. 1t has taken three DAYS of con-
tinuouS discussion for the delegates to
reach this common ground, and several
times all agreement was thought inn
possible. The point causing the most
discussion was whether it would be
made imperative for all orders on any
one system 10 join, or whether two or
more should be allowed to federate. 1t
was finally decided to adopt plan Civ
ing the most liberty, and any two Or
CARNATIONS on the systems may make
federation OH the plan adopted. leaving
the others to join or not, us they sec fit.
Such federation will be binding only on
the members.
Conservative members of the confer
ence feel they have gained point, as
serve as a check against ill.adyised
strikes or hasty action of any sort. I'm
der the new plan, when the members of
any organization have a grievance
against their road, their grievance COM
mittee must first do all in their power to
settle it. When they fail, the executive
head of the order must be called in and
do his best to effect Il settlement. Not
until both of these have failed can the
executive heads of all the organizations
in the federation be called upon,
and they must be unanimous
before a strike can be ordered, but
when ordered all must go out. 1t will
be seen that the organization is simple,
and requires no new officers. AS the
engineers voted at the last convention
for federation with the same funda-
mental principles, it is thought they
may eventually come in. Some of the
members Of the conference, which adj
journed this afternoon, were not author
lied to act for their respective orders,
and details of the plan will not be made
public until they have secured ratifca-
ton of their constituency. Members
of the conference were given banquet
by the grand officers of the conductors
tonight, and left for their homes OH late
trains,

Silver Men Will Oppose the
Repeal OF the Sherman
Act.
Thew Will Filibuster il Ne
eessary to Defeat the
Proposition,
Yet They Believe the Law
Will Be Repealed at the
Next Session.
Senator Allison Of the Opin-
ion the Act Will Not Be
Repealed.

WASHINGTON, Dec. 3l.-Representa-
tive Pierce, of Tennessee, who, with
Representative Bland, led the fight for
free silver legislation at the last session,
announcedsJodayt the purpose of himself
and some of his associates ito give the
anti-silver men a dose Of their own
medicine and filibuster, if necessary, to
prevent repeal of the Sherman act"
MI. Pierce was confident that there
would be nothing further accomplished
on the situation during this congress,
but gave it as his opinion that the law
would be repealed early in the next
congress in response to the demands of
President Cleveland. Mr.. Pierce said:
1--WE will now wait on the other side
anti-silver men has now come. and
when they attempt anything Wen give
them what they gave us last session. l
believe a bill to repeal the Sherman
law will be reported by the banking
and currency committee. Yes, l have
looked into the matter, and believe
there is majority of that committee in
favor of the repeal of the law. But we
don't propose to let them accomplish
their purpose. We will agree TO repeal
the Sherman act and return to the
Bland act if the minimum monthly
coinage be fixed at 100000 instead of
S2,00O,000, as it was in that act"
no Compromise.
"Would the silver men be willing to
compromise on $4,000, 900 a month";"
mo sir, | don't think they would.
The Sherman act is working our way.
We have got the other side on the hip.
lis increasing the circulation of the
country 81, 100000 month, and that is
what the banks don't want done. 1t is
the increase Of the money of the coun-
try that is at the bottom of the COM
plants of the banks. | believe the
next session will see the Sherman law
repealed. You see there are 12S Repub-
licans in the next house. Nearly all of
them will vote for its repeal. The
whole Republican press, you notice, is
calling for its repeal. | can put my
finger on seventy or eighty Democrats
in the next house who will vote
the same way. | believe President
Cleveland will insist on its repeal even
before any tariff legislation is ac-
complished, and there will be weak
kneed Democrats enough to repeal it.
Had there been any intention to arrive
at conclusion in the international con-
ference, the American representatives
would have insisted in coming to de-
termination without any poStponement
of the question. Nothing is gained by
either side to the controversy by post
ponement until May. The convention
then will accomplish no more than it
has in its recent session."
Such is the opinion Of Representative

raters got together by the Normanna

him to put on the skates with me-"

The bill further claims that the DEFEND
ants fraudulently appropriated the pro-
ceeds of the treasury stock and con-
cealed the books and papers OF the
company and endeavored to bride the
other directors to gain control of the
assets. Under these circumstances the
court is asked to compel the defendants
account. to set aside the assignment and
to appoint receiver. An injunction is
also sought to prevent any disposition
of the real or personal estate.
