A STORM At THE FAIR.


The Big Balloon Biovn 90 Ribbons just
After Descent.
CHICAGO, July 10.--A wind storm Of ter
rife force. followed by q heavy downpour
of rain passed over the White City last
evening, doing considerable damage to the
different buildings and 20 the exhibits
stored therein.
When the storm burst 10000 people were
grouped about the pavilion to the east OF
Manufactures building enjoying the
music. They hastily rushed for the shell
ter Of the big building and entered the
doors in much disorder. The guards, after
admitting the crowds endeavored to close
the doors, but the force Of the wind shut
the doors with such violence that the glass
in three big entrances was shattered into
fragments. There was much confusion,
but, as the blow lasted but ten minutes
the people soon became calm.
The same scene occurred in all the build

THE SHERMAN LAW.

Many Democrats are endeavOring
to shoulder the responsibility for the
evils arising from the purchase Of
silver by the Government entirely
upon the Republican party and to
keep the skirts of the Democratic
party free from all reproach therefor.
In the first place, it ascribes many
evils to the Sherman law which are
really due to other causes having their
chief foundation in the success of the
Democratic party last fall, and it then
endeavors to create the impression
that If THAT law had not been passed
the situation would be now much
better.
The Sherman law had two Objects
first the repeal of the Bland law, and
second, the prevention of the passages
offs free coinage bill. Had it not been
enacted the country to-day would
have on its statute books either free
coinage law or the Bland act. To
both of these measures the great
majority of the Democratic Congress
men committed themselves. The Bland
act was passed in 1878, when the
Democrats controlled the House of
Representatives and Samuel j. Ran
dali was Speaker. The clause in il
providing for the purchase Of not less
than two million dollars worth Of
silver bullion per month and its coin
age into light weight dollars was
passed by vote of 203 to 70. The bill
was vetoed by the Republican Presi
dent Hayes, but it was passed over
his veto in the House by a vote of 1875
to 70, and in the Senate by 46 to 10,
a majority of the yeas being Demo
Gratis and of the nays Republicans.
When the so-called Sherman law
was on its passage the Senate amended
it 80 as to provide for the free coinage
of silver. The vote of the Senate was
AZ to 25. Among the yeas were .27
Democrats and among the nays there
were only 8 Of that party. The bill, with
the Senate free coinage amendment,
came back to the House, which dis
agreed to the amendment by vote OF
I35 to 152, most of the former being
Democrats and nearly all of the
latter Republicans. The attitude of
the two parties on the question of tie
purchase and free coinage of silver
is clearly shown by these votes. A
large majority of the Republicans
were opposed to it, while a large
majority of the Democrats in Congress
favored it.
A Democratic exchange says there
was no dangeryo of the enactment OF a
free coinage law because the Preai
dent would have voted it, This may
be true, but that President was
Republican, and it was the Republi-
can Congressman who prevented their
Democratic colleagues from passing
such law. After the Senate's free
coinage amendment was defeated il
the House a conference was had
which resulted in the passage Of the
Sherman law in its present form
That law repealed the Bland law,
which other wise would have been in
operation to-day and the effects of
which would have been worse than
the Sherman Jaw. Had the Democratic
party's representatives had their
way to-day, instead of the Sherman
law being in force, we would have
either the Bland act or the free coin.
age law in operation. This being the
case, the attempt to make capital for
the Democratic party out Of the Sher-
man act is as dishonest as it is ride
ulous.

WASHINGTON, July O.--Representative
Jerry Simpson was shown a dispatch from
Topeka, Kan, stating that deal had
been made by the Populists of that state
whereby he would become a candidate for
governor next year, and that Governor
Lewellyn would run for the senatorship to
succeed Senator Martin. He said there
was not a scintilla of truth in the tory so
far as he was concerned, and he doubted
the statement regarding Governor LEVEL
lyn's alleged candidacy.

There We're some remarkable de-
velopements at the trial of Warden
McVey of the Second ward of Paw
tucket yesterday. Hugh j. Carroll had
sworn out a warrant charging McVey
with breech of the election laws in
permitting persons to enter the enclos-
ure after they had voted, and at the
trial the ex mayor appeared as counsel
for himself as prosecutor.
The principal witness against McVey
testified that he went inside the rail at
the request of Mr.. Carroll. who asked
him TO carry a message To the warden.
Moreover, he told the court that the
warden could not have prevented his
entering the enclosure, as at the time
McVey was eating his dinner in an ante
room.
1t is needless to say the court
promptly dismissed the complaint; but
it may well be regretted if there is no
redress for the person who is put to
trouble and expense in defending him
self against flimsy and unfounded
charges.

When Secretary Carlisle stated that
Wall street is an isolated portion of the
community, and that panic there
would not affect general business, he
was doubtless not aware how soon the
truth of his words was to be tested.
Had Mr.. Carlisle been financier in
any practical sense, or had he even had
any private practical business expert
ence, he would have known that the
policy pursued by the administration
could end in no other way than panic
in stocks whose effect if not felt with
equal force In the commercial world
would nevertheless be widely spread. He
would have known that no government,
however strong, can continue indef-
nitely to buy silver, which is merchan-
disc, with gold, which is money, with
ont impairing confidence, undermining
credits and causing stagnation in busi-
ness that might become something
worse.
The present state of the speculative
and investment markets needs no other
explanations than those which have al
ready been given i'm these columns.
The success last November of a party
whose policy SO far as it had been dis
closed by the acts of its members in
congress and their professions In pub
lie was so radical change from
existing conditions as to foreshadow
disaster If it should be fully carried out,
has been followed by six months Of
trade which can best be described as
suspicious. The commercial interests
Of this country have contracted their deal
ings until III year which should hav o

activity has practically ceased.
II is partly true that the commercial
community will not feel the panic of
Wall street. II is partially true be-
cause practically the commercial com
munity has been in semi-panic for
some months and worse condition of
affairs has only been averted by the
forewarning year that panic would
come.
Every business man realizes this.
Even in our own city, with its almost
unlimited banking facilities, loans have
been for months most difficult, and

The attitude of the president of this

1t is neither necessary nor pertinent to

under the Republican administration.
It was not wholly checked by the Re-

III may DO tnat tne stuueuts Oh DroWn
university take trifie too intense a
view of the necessity that they see ex-
lists for the enlargement of the scope of
the work there. perhaps the enthusi-
asm of youth leads them to feel some
what too keenly the possibility of losing
the president who has so won their re-
gard that they think the future Of the
university depends upon his remaining
at the head of it.. Yet we are sure that
the sentiment Of this community Is
very much of the same tenor as the
students, as evidenced at the meeting
yesterday.
1t is not probable that the president
of Brown has committed himself in any
respect as to his future, whether the
needed funds for the university are
forthcoming at present or not, yet we
happen to know that the authorities OF
the Chicago university expect to secure
the services of DIR. Andrews II the
money is not raised. We do not know
what specific thing these hopes are
based upon, but are sure that DR.. An
drews has given no definite assurances
to warrant them.
When the president of the Chicago
university invited DIR. Andrews to the
chair of one of the most importa mt pro-
fessorships that he had to offer, and DIR.
Andrews did not accept the generous
offer. it was generally understood that
he had decided to wait year for the
friends of Brown to consider the needs
of the university, and provide for them.
AT that time the Chicago people decided
to refrain from pressing him for def
mite decision, and one of the men con-
nected with the western institution,
who had at the time been comforting
with President Harper within few
days, said to the writer that President
Harper was confident OF securing the
services of DIR. Andrews at the end of
another year if Brown did not provide
the wider scope he felt was necessary
for its proper development.
There is, therefore, ground for fearing
that DIR. Andrews may be offered field
of labor that can promise him full play
for the extraordinary powers he pos
sasses.
The people of this state, and the
friends of Brown elsewhere, need not
rest secure in the belief that DIR. An
drews will remain at the head Of the
institution unless he is given a field of
labor as wide as his ability can Guilt
vate. There are such fields waiting for
such husbandmen, and he would be
false to himself and the work he has
chosen II he did not go to them.
The Providence news. (Providence [R.I.]) 1891-1906, 1893-05-05

this feeling of distrust has gained such
firm hold upon investors. They see
the ruinous policy Of the government,
and find in it no promise for the future.
In times of panic the only property Of
staple value is money, and II they
refuse to help the government
which refuses to help itself or to outline
a policy by which business and credits
may be encouraged, they can not be
censured. AS no relief is offered the
country is likely to learn by experience
the benefits of Democratic policy, and
it will be safe to predict the end OF pres
ent conditions only when that end
arrives.
