+ There IS more talk now Ola compromise
+ iu v,ur,- iiuu uitu ihv uiii 10 rvIrai tne
( sherman silver law than there Is OF uu-
conditional repeal No one seems 90 know
exactly who the senators are who are
patching up compromise measure nor
Z what their motives are. 10 Is reported.
/ for instance. that Senator German Is the
/ leader iu the compromise business. 10 Is
/ alleged that he is anxious TO gain what
/ ever credit there may be for settling, for
the time being at least, the silver ques-
tion, and he hopes 20 get compromise
that win command the support Of all the
democrats. 30 that the measure viii APP
pear TO be a. democratic one.
Another report is that republican sena-
tors are favoring compromise that will
include an issue Of bonds to buy gold, and
thus maintain the gold reserve. A fur
thcr issue Of bonds in their opinion would
help to strengthen the national banking
system and make it more difficult to re
establish state banks of issue.
How much there is in this compromise
talk il is impossible to say with any de-
gree of certainty. 1t looks however, as
if it would be difficult TO fix up any com
promise that would be acceptable to the
House, or to the administratio The
House is known to be opposed to an in
crease in the national debt, and a COM
promise that provides for the issue of
bonds to buy gold would hardly meet
with favor in that branch Of congress.
1t is intimatcd also that the President
would not sign a bill that called for an
issue of bonds. Neither he nor the Secre-
tary of the Treasury thinks it would be
to the advantage of the country or the
Democratic party to increase the national
debt.
Those who are talking Of compromise
therefore do not seem to have taken into
account all the difficulties in the way of
any compromise measure that the Senate
is likely to agree upon.
The more it is thought about the clearer
it becomes that the only safe course to
pursue is the one marked out by the
President in his message to congress.
Unconditional repeal of the Sherman sill
yer law is what the country wants, and
what would give the relief that is so ur-
gently demanded. If that law was out
of the way it could be seen what could be
done safely for silver. Something would
be done. There is no doubt about that.
The silver men would not get what they
demand but they would get something
that would be better for them than the
Sherman silver law because that law
does not keep silver at a price that per
mits silver to be mined at profit. There
is much better prospect that nothing
will be done in respect to silver than that
q compromise measure will become law.

The Pest Ship.

From the Philadelphia Record Dem1.
Tn horrors of the Meccan pilgrimages by
reason of deaths from cholera are more than
equaled by the experience of a mail steamer
which sailed from Genoa to Santos Brazil
carrying passengers. Cholera broke out on
the vessel before it reached is destination
and the Brazilian authorities refused Co allow
the passengers or cargo to lie landed. The
steamer thOn recrossed the ocean, IA floating
pest ship. During the voyage, going and
returning ia persons died. The vessel is
now quarantined OF the cost of Sardinia 1t
is hard to conceive of situation more de-
plorable than that of the wretched people i'm
pr1SOned and helpless on board this steam
ship. with no certainty of refuge in any port
of the world, so terrible is the brutality of
fear

Oscar Wilde has made a suggestion rel
rive to meats in the markets that butch
e will make haste probably to take ad-
vantage of. He says meats should not be
exposed to public view and to flies, but
should be shown to customers by means
of photographs. Unfortunately the pho
tographs would not indicate whether the
meats had been kept too long. Meats at
tractive to the eye might not be accept
able to the taste and smell.

The MORNING News will begin the
publication of a serial story next Sunday
entitled That House in Bloomsbury"
by Mrs. Oliphant The story is a domes-
tic one, and will be read with delight in
the home circle. Around a quaint old
house in Bloomsbury and chiefly in CON
ncction with its modern inha bitants, Mrs
Oliphant has built up a cheerful and at
tractive literary creation, full of life, pic
turesqueness and character.
The suggestion of mystery is well-main-
tanned throughout, and the love interest,
which, in Mrs. Oliphant's stories, is never
lacking, is, in this instance, more than
ordinarily attractive, the romance of the
story springing into being amidst most
unlikely surroundings.
Margaret o. w. Oliphant has won an
enviable reputation in the world of let
ters as a judicious biographer, charm
ing novelist, and a general writer of
strong individuality. 1t is not easy to
say wherein consists the unmistakable
touch of genius in her work, but it is I'M
doubtedly there.
She always seems to strike the right
vein, and to use the right words. Her
composition is at all times vigorous, and
never obscure.
"That House in Bloomsbury" will also
appear in the WEEKLY News.

In this country the magnitude of the
coal famine in England is not fully APP
pleciated 1t is said to have assumed the
proportions of calamity. The coal
miners, who are out on strike, are suf-
fering terribly. A cablegram to the Sun
says thousands are starving in the Mid
lands. The commercial effects are al
ready very severe. Many trains have
stopped running on the railroads, and the
receipts for the past two months have de
clined e1,000,00O sterling. The retail
price of coal is now about $40 a ton, and
yet the miners federation has again
voted not to yield. The decision to allow
the men to return at the old rate of
wages, wherever possible, will open
some mines, but viii also contribute to
the ultimate defeat of the strikers. If
the strike continues much longer it will
soon be possible to export coal from this
country to England at a profit.

Oklahoma is already clamoring for adj
mission into the union as a state. 1t is
claimed that the population, since the
opening of the Cherokee strip. has grown
so rapidly that it now numbers over 275.-

S5O,0OO,000. Half of those who went to
the Cherokee strip to find homes were

President Cleveland did not dine with
the National league of the Travellers

should appreciate the work of the com

letter he said that during his residence In
Bunalo his roommate was a commercial

Some OF the Chicago papers are discuss
ing the questions of the prices that are
likely to be obtained for the vast number
of articles in the fair that will be offered
for sale Immediately after the close of the
fair. The collection of merchandise is
the largest and most varied the world has
ever seen. The articles come from every
civilized country and some semi-bar-
barous countries. The value of the col
lections has been estimated from $4,000
600 to 100000 and even much higher.
There is little doubt that $50. 900 600
would be n conservative estimate of their
value. There is a movement to get the
fair directors to permit articles to be sold
in the fair buildings for month or so af-
ter the fair closes. Strong influences are
at work to divert the great collection of
merchandise to other cities, or perhaps
get it out of the country entirely, but
when the issue is made in the board of
directors, ii is believed the exhibitors will
win, and that for at least a month after
the fair has closed, Jackson Park will be
the shopping center of the world Ifsuch
should be the ease, many women who
have had little desire to visit the fair,
would have a strong desire to go to Chi
cago after it closed with the hope of get
ting bargains

They Forget wanamaker.

The republican journals take a very
lively interest in the Van Allen matter. 1t
seems to afford them a great deal of pleas
ure to assert that it is scandalous that a
man who gave $4,000 to the national
democratic campaign fund should be APP
pointed ambassador to Italy. They assume,
of course, that Mr.. Van Allen would not
have been nominated for that place or any
other if he had not contributed so Iiber-
ally to the democratic campaign fund in
the last national election.
But these republican journals forget
that Mr. Wanamaker was made Postmas-
ter General in Gen. Harrison's admins
tration as a reward for the large
contribution he and his friends made
to the national republican cam
paign. fund that helped to elect Gen.
Harrison. Mr.. Wanamaker had not
figured in politics and had no good reason
to expect a cabinet position There is
just as much reason for saying that he
bought the nomination he received as
there is for saying that Mr. Van Allen
bought the Office to which he has been
nominated.
Democrats have criticised Mr.. Van
Aliens nomination, and they have right
to do so if they feel so disposed, because
Mr.. Van Allen is a member of their party;
but if republicans criticise it they should
not do so with the view of making the i'm
preston that their party is wholly free
from scandals of that kind. The differ
ence between democrats and republicans
is that the democrats protest against acts
which threaten to bring discredit upon
their party while the republicans seek to
hide such acts.
AS matter of fact, there is no evidence
that Mr.. Van Allen gave his money to as
sist the democratic cause with the hope
of reward. On the contrary, there are
reasons for saying that what he gave he
gave freely and with the sole purpose of
assisting his party to win a victory The
main opposition to his nomination grows
out of the statements that have been
made that he has a higher opinion of
English institutions than those of his
own country, but those statements may
do him an injustice But whether they
do or not, the republicans are not in po-
sition to charge that his nomination is a
scandalous one.

Nothing that is done in the south salts
fles some of the republican papers. For
instance, the Mail and Express of New
York, with reference to the hanging of
five black murderers at Mt. Vernon, Ga,
last Friday has the following: Five
negroes were hanged at Mt. Vernon, Ga
yesterday for murder. The execution
was not a lynching, but was done in pur-
suance of law. The entire population of
two counties suspended business and
made holiday. Five thousand people
witnessed the hanging. There is some
thing wrong with community that finds
enjoyment in such scenes" The southern
people are condemned by the extreme
republican papers whenever a lYnching
occurs in southern state, and now they
are condemned because a few thousand
whites and blacks attended the hanging
of five murderers. Would not the public
hanging of five murdorers have drawn
crowd in any northern state} 1t would,
undoubtedly. The injustice of the at
tacks of republican papers upon the south
Indicate that the attacks proceed from
feeling Of hostility.

from Washington that the President has

pication for the diplomatic position to
which he has been nominated has no
foundation. Nothing is now known that

Whose Duty Is ItP

Complaint has been made several times
that pond near where the Belt line
crosses the White Bluff road remains I'M
drained. The pond is quite a large one,
and the boys of the neighborhood have
been playing in it ever since the recent
heavy rains,
People living in the vicinity Of the pond
are afraid that it will cause sickness.
They have called the attention of the au-
thorities to it, but for some reason or
other nothing has been done towards
draining it.
There are reports to the effect that
there is a difference of opinion as to
whose duty it is to drain it. The rail
road authorities say it is not their duty.
The city authorities say the pond is not
in the city limits. What the county au-
thorities say has not been learned
The question is this: Is the pond a
source of danger to the health of the peo-
pie living in the vicinity of it, If so,
then it ought to be drained without fur
Their delay. Indeed, he work of drain
ing ought to have been done many days
ago. A physician called at the Office of
the MORNING News yesterday aud de-
clared quite emphatically that, in his
opinion, it is a danger spot
There ought to be no wrangling as to
whose duty it is to drain the pond. That
question is comparatively unimportant
one in comparison with the preservation
of the public health If it is outside of
the city limits the county authorities
ought to have the place drained at once,
ana then the cost of the work can be
collected from whoever is liable for it, But
the thing 10 do now is To drain the nnnd
