SILVER TROUBLES GROWING.
The Democratic Senators Unable to
Agree on a Policy,
THE COMMON RATIO ABANDONED
I,aaical silver Men OF the West VIII BE
NAaked to Come Into the Fold
and Keep Qniet.
THE COMMON RATIO ABANDONED

Washington, Aug. 9.-The develop
ments Of today have been such as to
give promise Of an early discussion of
the silver question in the two houses
OF Congress. The democratic senators
after Ia caucus lasting several hours
found themselves absolutely unable to
agree upon any line of action and fin
ally adjourned until later day. The
intention of the senate Is to adjourn
from tomorrow till Monday in order to
give an opportunity for the fullest in
formal discussion among the senators
of tboth parties before entering upon
any. legislation. In the failure of the
deKiocratic senators to agree upon any
party policy, the advocates of the re-
peal of. the Sherman law find great en-
enlargement. The free coinage men OF
the house held a caucus today and
adopted resolution which will be a
revelation to the free coinage men of
the West. but 1t will be a tower of
strength to those who are fortifying
themselves against the unconditional
repeal Of the Sherman purchase act.
The resolution is regarded as a master
stroke on the part Of the silver men, as
it practically ahandons the ratio of 16
to 1, and agrees to accept such a COM
promise ratio as will maintain the par
ity between gold and silver, and inn
plies that the most vigorous eff
forts will be made to induce the radi-
cal silver men of the far West to
yield to the judgement of the more
conservative free coinage men of the
country

The directors of the Central Vermont

stantially as follows: The gross receipts
from all sources have been 1854, 39S. OF,
the operating expenses have been So, 9S5. >

I9O.7l. The balance is $1G,261 80.
During the past year extensive improve
ments have been made upon the property.
The most important improvements, per-
Aaps, have been made at st. Adams. CON
sistin1g of new shifting yard, new coal
trestle and chute for coaling locomotives,
and double track from St. Adams to
Swanton Junction, a distance of {. 2 miles.
Fourteen substantial iron bridges have
been bought to replace the wooden struct-

subsequent issuing of bonds Hereunder,
the company holds S., 000 900 four per cent

the floating debt on temporary loans,
which they have been able to do without

From the White River Junction Landmark.
AT a late session of the Washington
county court the liquor agent for the town
of Fayston was found guilty of one first
offence of selling illegally and fined 500
and costs. The "illegal' sale appeared to
be one in which no proof was offered that
the liquor was for medicinal purposes. If
every town agent who sells whiskey with
out physicians prescription or other evil
dence that the "hard STUFF is intended as
a medicine were prosecuted, the courts
would have plenty of cases to attend to.
There are not few towns in which the
public sentiment favors as many sales and
as large profits as the business will bear.
They view the matter as a source of rev.
enue. Fayston people must be an eXcep-
ton to the common rule.

$15O,OOO to Middlebury College.

The Handsome Request from Charles j.
Starr, Who Had Previously Given Large
Sums,
Charles j. Starr who died in New York
last week Thursday, was born in Middle
bury in 1908. He was the son of Peter
Starr, an eminent lawyer of Vermont, and
one of the founders of Middlebury college.
In 1910 he became a member of the old
firm of Baldwin, Starr & Co., in New
York. In 1860 he retired from business
and settled in Stamford, Conn, where he
lived until the death of his wife, six years
ago since when his home has been with a
brother in New York. Mr.. Starr has
given great deal to charity and has gener-
ously remembered Middlebuay college and
Middlebury village. A year ago he gave
the college 100000 and the village $4,000
for the water works. In his will he be-
queathes $4,000 to the college This
with previous benefactions makes total
of nearly $780, 900 given by him to the insti-
tuition.
