was 1.-The best money and plenty of it."
ms was a contradiction of terms, said
Mr.. Jones, for the 'best dollar" was that
with the greatest purchasing power, and
the increased purchasing power came
from the scarcity of the dollar. So Mr.
Sherman favored "scarce money and
plenty of it." He desired to say a few
words in behalf of the silver miners of
the United States. They were a brave
and hardy people, and tried by every
gauge of manhood and patriotism to re-
spond to all tests.
FALL OF THE ROMAN REPUBLIC.
In conclusion, MIR. Jones said: "The
Roman republic, Mr. President, did not
lose its liberties until the Senate had de-
generated into a mere instrument for re-
cording the will of the chief magistrate
MacCaulay has commented upon the ease
with which all democratic forms and the
names and titles appertaining to a re-
publican form of government were pre-
served in that commonwealth currently
with the absorption of all the powers of
the state executive, legislative and ju-
dicial, in the hands of one man. But that
was a long time ago. Times change, and
men change with them. This is a very diff
ferent republic from that of Rome, and
although history, we are told, sometimes
repeats itself, for one will not believe
that the Senate of the United States is
ever to become a subservient Senate. If,
however, there is a majority in this
Senate in favor of repeal, let me admonish
those senators to pause and reflect that
there is no exigency whatever demanding
its passage, that no condition requires it,,
and that it is excellent to have a giants
strength. but it is tyrannous to use it like
a giant" Applause in the gallery.
The Senate then went into executive
session, and at 5:15 p. M, took a recess
until tomorrow morning.

CLEVELAND GRAT1FIED.
He Never Doubted That the Uncondi-
tional Repeal Bill Would Pass.

Washington, Oct. 25.-President Cleve-
land came into the city from Woodley
this morning at IL o'clock. The Presi-
dent is very much gratifed at the turn
affairs have taken in the Senate, though
he has believed all along that the uncon-
ditional repeal bill would pass. There
have been times of anxiety, but never for
a moment has he wavered in his belief.
1t was learned at the white house that
the President would have no suggestions
to make, as to an adjournment or recess
after congress passed the repeal bill,
though he was anxious to have the
Chinese bill, extending the time in which
Cinnamon could register, passed before the
dissolution of congress. 1t was the i'm
preston at the white house that no
message would be sent in until the regu-
lar session in December.

STONE TELLS A NEW STORY.
He Now Claims That He Killed the
Wrattan Family Alone.

Washington, Ind, Oct. 25.-James
Stone, who some days ago confessed that
he, with five me:-c~ii " in prison, murdered
the Wrattan family in Daviess county a
few weeks sago, made another confession
last night to parties in this city, Stone
says that he alone murdered the
Wrattan family. He exonerates the
men implicated in his first
confession. He told the officers
where to find the weapons with which
the deed was done The officers went out
this morning before daylight and found
them where Stone had stated. A small
bloody axe and a corn knife were hidden
under log in piece of woods close by
the scene of the tragedy. The weapons
are now in possession of the grand jury.
1t is the opinion that Stone may, or may
not, be telling the truth. He has the
reputation of being notorious liar. 1t is
not believed that he did the deed alone.

THE STORY CONFIRMED.

The navy department authorities
learned late to-day, however, from
Rear Admiral Stanton, in command of
the United States naval forces at Rio de
Janeiro. that he had saluted the flag of
Admiral Mello, commanding the insur-
gent feet. This salute was unauthorized
by any instructions the admiral had re-
ceived. 1t was an unfriendl ly act towards
a friendly power, and the Secretary of the
Navy issued an order detaching Admiral
Stanton from command of his squadron
and turning it over to Capt. Picking, the
next officer in rank. This was in reply to
a telegram of inquiry

Admiral Stanton Relieved from Com

Washington, Oct. 25.--A dispatch from
Rio Jaueiro published in a Ber-
lin paper, stating that the American
naval commander had exchanged visits
and salutes with Admiral Mello, of the
insurgent feet, proves well founded.
Secretary Herbert, when asked about
the Berlin report this morning, said he
was going to find out the facts before the
day was over if possible. He stated that
an ordinary business visit by the Ameri-
can commander to Admiral Mello might
be perfectly proper, but such an incident
as that reported he regarded as entirely
improbable.
