COCHRAN'S MENTAL CONDITION
The Mint Thief May be Examined by n
Lunacy Commisslou,


PHILADELPHIA, Sept. 20.-Henry s. Coch-
ran, the embezzling mint employe, was
brought before Commissioner Bell. James
NJ. Beck the young Democratic orator and
former assistant United States district
attorney, has been employed as his coun-
sci. Mr., Beck was unable to be present.
and further postponement was had until
tomorrow.
Commissioner Bell announced that since
Cochrans committal n judgment had been
confessed by him and fled in She United
States circuit court for S2S,00O. He was
therefore, disposed to reduce the amount
of bail. He fixed the sum at slT,
Cochran said he would go to Moyamensing
until tomorrow.
The reduction of the bail to Sl7 500 sim
ply binds the prisoner on thx criminal
charge of stealing. So far as us worldly
goods are concerned every dollars worth
of them have been made over to the United
States, and Colonel Bosbyshell and his
bondsmen and the government are all
safe. --..- -
When the case comes to trial it Is almost
certain that II commission will be ap-
pointed to inquire into Cochran's mental
condition Thus far he has given evidence
in every possible manner that he is man
of very feeble mind. ..... ....
District Attorney Inghnm has received
instructions from Attorney General Olney
to push both criminal and civil proceed
ings against Cochran.

How the Senatorial Silver Dead
lock May be Settled.
CONCESSIONS FROM BOTH SIDES.

Talk of an Arrangement by Eastern and
Western Senators which Would Include
the Passage of n Compromise Measure
over the Presidents Veto. ....
WASHINGTON, Sept 90. = There is
marked increase today in the number and
variety of the rumors indicating com
promise on the silver question. According
to one of these stories the secretary of tho
treasury was to appear before the commit
tee on finance this week for consultation
on the subject, but various members of
that committee deny the truth Of the
statement. Still, the fact remains that a
great deal is being said looking in that
direction.
The compromise IL there Is to be one,
upon which 1t isthought the offer would be
made would consist of concessions not only
by the eastern, but by the silver men. The
lntest proposition discussed is one that di-
rects the coinage Of the seignorage now in
the treasury and the purchase and coinage
of q further amount of silver, to be about
the aggregate provided for in the Faulk-
ner amendment, the silver to be coined to
its full coinage value, thereby preventing
the storage of any more seignorage. This
would appeal to two classes, those who
who believe that what the country wants
is an enlarged currency
This would be a concession of the east
ern men, but If such IA concession is made
by them they will insist that it be coupled
with concession on the part of the west
ern men that will incorporate in the law
the authority given the secretary of the
treasury to issue bonds and buy gold when
ever in his judgment 1t becomes necessary
to do SO in order to maintain the parity be-
tween the two metals Unless the silver
men agree to this, it is said there can be
no compromise.
Those who favor the compromise out
lined state that 1t is known that President
Cleveland would veto it, but that would
be provided for, and after Mr.. Cleveland
had stated his exceptions to the bill it
would, by the same combination that put
it through before, be pushed to a passage
over the veto. @.... ."--.
1t is very certain that nothing has been
said in committee indicating any thought
of compromise on the part Of the friends
of the administration, and any steps that
mny be taken in that direction will be
taken by members of the committee as
senators only. The fact is, there appears
to be an unusual amount of lethargy about
the finance committee. There seems 10 he
no way for it to force vote on the pend
ing bill, aud until that is out of the way
its sessions are held as a perfunctory per-
formance of a specific duty.
The appearance of things now Indicate
that night sessions will be the usual thing
before the committee is willing to take up
the Faulkner or any other amendment
and discuss it in II serious way as a posi-
BILE solution of the pending difficulty.
Still. there are senators who profess to be-
lieve that compromise proposition will
be crystaliZed before next week is over.

A Ntz SCHOOL SCHEME.
rhe Plan Proposed for State Aid to Ed
ucationaI Institutions.


NEwsYoRK, Sept. 20-All the principal
newspapers in this city today are inter
viewing prominent clergymen and edu-
gators on the plan proposed by DR.. Michael
Welsh, editor of The Catholic Herald, for
a solution of the school question. The
plan summarized is tbist 7-.
Let the state appropriate a sufficient,
number of school inspectors to visit and
examine once month, or oftener, II neces-
sary, every school that applies for help
from the school tax. Let the inspection
and examination be fully up to the public
school standard, and for every claim and
every scholar that pass satisfactory ex-
animation let them be awarded pro rata
allowance equal in amount to the cost of
. similar instruction in the public schools.
This plan would preserve our parochaF
schools In all their integrity and make
them part of the public school system.
"The education for which the state q
bound to provide is secular, and il the
parochial schools give the required educE-
ton in the necessary and useful branches
of natural knowledge the state ought to-
pay for it. If the teachers in these schools
season their instruction to a certain extent
In religion, the state is not asked to pay
for such seasoning. Let the state, through
Its school inspectors, watch the teaching
and decide what is secular teaching.
Its author said today: 'This plan is de-
signed not only for Catholic parochial
schools, but for the educational insLitu-
tions of Hebrews, Episcopalians, and Of
such of the Protestant denominations who
support schools of their own. and do not
depend on the public schools for the educa-
tion of their children"
Copies Of the new plan were sent to Mgr.
Satolli and to the archbishops while at
Dubuque 1t is possible that the PROPOSE
tion may take the form of bill in the
next legislature. 1t is considered espec-
tally timely by reason of the recent col
lapse of the Farbault system in Mime
sofa and in Hoboken, N. J.

Farmer John Eaches of Bucks county
has invented scheme which, while it is
calculated to increase his profits from the
sale of eggs, has at the same time made his
hens the most disgusted lot of fowls i'm.
aginable Farmer Eaches has rugged up
numerous ECsts in his henhouse that to tho
eye of the ordinary hen are just too nice
for anything. These nests however, are
delusions and snares. A secret trap under
each one opens as the hen settles down on
her duty. The egg falls through into a
soft bed of bran. The misguided fowl
arises and proudly looks around to view
the result of her efforts. There is no egg
In sight. She fails to understand it and
tries again. This sort of thing continues
until the hen cXhausts her resources
Farmer Eaches meanwhile laughs in his
sleeve and gathers in the eggs in triple
quantities - pittsburg Chronicle Tele.
