COMING SILVER DOLLARS.
Minis Resume Work Once More b
OfDcfQl Ordera.

OfDcinl Orders.
The Secretary of the Treasury pas taken
prompt and important action on the silver
question by the issue of orders TO the surer-
intendents of the mints at New Orleans and
San Francisco to manufacture the ingots
and blanks SO as to be prepared at snort
notlce to resume the coinage, SUSPEND
cd some time ago, of standard silver
dollars, in case 1t should be decided to do
SO. This action is taken under author
ity OF section of the Sherman law Of 1890,
which is as follows:
That the Secretary of the Treasury Shall
each month coin 2.0OO.00O ounces of The silver
bullion purchased under the pro visions of
this act into standard silver dollars Until
the list day Of July, 1881, and after that
time he shall coin of the silver bullion DUR
chased under the provisions of his act as
much as may be necessary to provide :or
tne redemption of the treasury notes herein
arising from such coinage shall DO account

Inc coinage OF standard silver dollars is
resumed II Is explained. for the purpose of
utilizing the idle seigniorage about Which

as me other mints become clear OF gold

past been considering the question .s n
whether 1t could use all the seigniorage n
once, thus making available $50 900 ea0 but
as iar as can be learned no conclusion ha g

FOREIGN FAIR EXHIBITS.
What Assistant Secretary Hamliu
Says of the Alleged Complaints.

SayS III thc Aileseo eoHDxStutS.
Assistant Secretary Hamlin. who has
just returned from Chicago, stated to a
representative of the United Press today
that he had this morning seen a dispatch
from Chicago stating that foreign commits
sioners accuse the exposition officials of
being in leaga with the United States
customs officers for the purpose of retard-
ing the removal of foreign exhibits I, ON
the departmental buildings, so that The
projected Columbian Museum might get
certain exhibits for little or nothing and
specifying that prominent among the COM
piainants were the commissioners from
Liberia and British Guinea, the Central
and South American countries and the
Island of Trinidad.
Further. that the foreign officials COM
planned that preference was given 10 Arneri-
can exhibitors and the. they could NOT oven
deliver the goods they had sold
Secretary Hamlin said he knew nothing
whatever of these alleged acts of the Gus
toms officials and he would promptly in
vestigate any complaint of that kind that
might De MADE to the department His
time while in Chicago was occupicd in con-
ferences with the collector and other o,Ii-
Gals as to the best means of expeditiny The
expectation of foreign goods with rs little
Inconvenience and delay to their owners &c
practicable He found the collector ana his
subordinates disposed to do evervthin- in
their power to meet the wishes OF foreign
exhibitors so far the law ana regulations
would permit.
There certainly appeared to be no desire
on the part of any official to hamper or de-
lay exhibitors in taking their goods. The
merchandise must. however. be TRANSPORTED
In bond to the seaboard and there exported
according to law, and there might be some
necessary delay in the preparat ion of ey
port ENTREES, the checking up of the goods
by the invoices and lading them upon the
cars The tracks to bring the cars into
the buildings were already laid. and the
ianWay companies appeared to be diligent
in their part of the work

MONETARY CONFERENCE.
Little Prospect of IN Immediate As
sembling of the Body


There appears to be very little, II any.
prospect OF an immediate reassembling of
the international monetary conference for
the consideration of the question of the
enlarged use Of silver money in the COM
mercial transactions of the countries con-
cerned. The sessions in Brussels in Nav
last We're adjourned until November. at
the suggestion of the delegates on the part
OF the United States. No particular date
was agreed upon for reconvening. and, as
the conference was called at the suggestion
of the United States, its deliberations Will
probably be resumed only at the request of
this government. AS far as can be ascer-
tanned Secretaries Gresham and Carlisle
have at present no intention of making
this request.
Soon after the adjournment in May. Sem
ators Allison and Jones and Representative
McCreary, comprising the American delega-
ton, rendered their designations to the Pres
ident. He did not accept them but asked
that they be allowed TO remain Enacted
upon for the present Representative Nc
Creary has recently received an official let
ter from the president of the conference
and one or two other delet,a res, in which
they refer to the understanding that ses-
sions would be resumed in November, and
asking for informa ton as to what is to be
done NJ McCreary does not know what
reply to make. but he will talk with Presi-
dent'Cleveland on the subject within a day
or two. The American delegates are of the
opinion that nothing can be accomplished
by further meetings. for the reason that En-
gland stands in the way of an agreement
on bimetallism now, she did when the
con ference was in session. and her objec-
tons cannot be overcome. Mr.. McCre2ry
will, however. ascertain II possible, what
course this government intends to pursue
The duties of the delegates to the confer
ence seem to he at an end, although they
have not yet been officially informed of that
fact

BIC FOOT BALL GAMES.
Princeton and Pennsylvania; Harvard
and Cornell.

PHILADELPHIA, Pa, Nov 4-The ardor
Of the thousands of persons who will see
the University of Pennsylvania and the
Princeton foot ball elevens battle for supre-
macy at Mannheim this afternoon was
somewhat dampened when they arose this
morning and found heavy rain in progress
with no signs of abatement. It, however
takes more than the elements to POSTPONE
q collegiate foot ball contest, and the play
ers and their thousands of sympa thizers
literally defed old Boreas.
Long before noon crowds began entering
the grounds, so as to secure points of
vantage. The Princeton team, with q large
number Of sympathizers, arrived this morn
ing and were quartered at the Lafayette
Hotel Both teams went out to the grounds
shortly after noon.
Not the least bit deferred by the horrible
weather, the crowds are steadily pouring
into the grounds of the Germantown Cricket
Club, where the great Princeton University
OF pennsylvania foot ball game is to be
played At 1 O'Clock yelling shouting noise
producing adherents of the two teams are
grouped around the stout iron fence which
Keeps them off the playing field
Although the time for beginning the game
was sixty minutes away. the lusty voices
OF the shouters already showed the effects
OF the cold, nasty northeast wind that brings
with II little splashes of rain. No such
interest was ever before manifested In a
loot pail or any sporting event in this city,
and there was hardly any doubt that fully
5000 people would lift their more or less
tuneful voices when the rival teams lined up
A great many women were staining on
the open seats, determined to see the game
The red and blue of PENNSYLVANIA pre-
dominated, although there was no lack Of
the attractive yellow and black worn by the
9dherents of -Old Nassau"
Tine great crowd fairly went wild when
the teams dashed on the field for prelimi-
nary practice. Less than ten minures was
spent IN practice, and at 2 o'clock, after a
mai whisper conference, the two teams
lined up for the struggle
Touch Down for Princeton
At 219 Ward made a touch down for
Princeton. but King failed to kick the goal
Woodruff Of the Pennsylvania team was
disqualified for smuggling. Otto Wagon
hurst took his place. Pennsylvania gradu-
ally forced the ball towards Princeton,s
goal. when Blacke made a magnificent kick
OF sixty yards and gave the Princetens their
nrst chance to enthuse.
NEW YORK, Nov. 4-Rain has fallen
steadily all day and at 2 o'clock Manhattan
neid was in such bad condition that the
managers of the Harvard and Cornell foot
ball teams decided to postpone the game
which they had intended to play TODAY. The
date fixed for play has not been announced
Later-lt has been decided to play the
game.

MR.. CUVILLIER.S CASE.
The Judges Discuss the Necessity for
Rules to Govern Court Practice,

Today in the Police Court, Judges Miller
and kinlball on the bench, the matter of
Lewis Cuvilliar was called. Mr. Pugh. the
District prosecutor, Lad charge Of the az
fair. AS heretofore published in The Star
rule was issued against the atrorney
growing out OF his conduct in a case tried
some days ago. The rule required an an
swer to show cause why he should not be
punished for contempt
The principal witness in the case did not
appear as he had not been summoned.
Col. Christy and Mr.. HoehlIng represented
the attorney against whom the rule had
been issued.
The judges discussed their power to make
rules and to punish persons for contempt.
Without making any reference to Mr.. Gu
villier the judges concluded that there ought
to be bar Of the court and a roll of the
attorneys authorized to practice before
the court
Mr.. Pugh suggested that every man who
appears to practice should UNDERGO an
examination as to his character and ttness
and the judge approved the suggestion.
Owing to the absence of the witness the
case went over until next Saturday, counsel
remarking that Mr.. Cuvillier wanted a
complete investigation, as he knows he will
be exonerated.
