Pecksniffian pretense in his appoints

such. He does not require Congressman
to stultify themselves and act the sneak

fed to get out by the result of the cleo

that notification. 1t is the more manly
and the more creditable course to persue.
He does not make a pretense of virtue

MIR. Weadock's Sensation.
Mr.. Weadock of Michigan made a SEN

William S. Linton, a representative from

form of a memorial from eX-Represent-
alive Yomans. who was a candidate
against Mr. Linton. The petition as
serted that Mr.. Unions election was
neither legal nor valid. 1t was. said
Mr. Weadock, for a committee to in

illegal and traitorous organization

Vaccinations have caused a reign OF
terror.

dozen voices.
''It is known as the American pro-

dock.
Mr.. Hopkins protested against the
arraignment Of a society as a traitorous
organization and made the point or

The speaker overruled the point, but Mr..
Weadock's attention being called to the

NEW YORK, Oct. 24.-The district at
torpey's Office presented an unusually
animated appearance this morning about
II o'clock. Bankers and lawyers hustled
around and held hurried conversations
in odd corners. The central office de-
tectives to the number of a dozen ar
rived with prisoners who were ex-
pensively dressed and had all the ap-
pearances of wealth and refinement.
These were the president and some Of
the directors Of the defunct Madison
Square bank. The first 10 arrive was
Simon Ottenburg, who was quickly
Joined by President Joseph +. Blant.
Andrew L. Soulard came next with
Sergt. Titus, and another detective es-
cOrted Cashier Thompson down from
headquarters and Frederick Altman ar
rived a few minutes later. All the d.
rectors whose names were mentioned
have been arrested with the exception
of +. A. Kursheedt who is sick in bed,
and Charles Z. Selover, who is residing
at Passaic, n. J. The latter refuses to
come to this city without a reqUisition.
The name of Director Lawrence p.
Fitzgerald does not appear on any other
persons in the case. Bail bonds were
then prepared and there seemed to be
no scarcity Of bondsmen.
The following is a list Of directors who
furnished bail and were released today:
President Blant, SIS, 900; Frederick Uhl-
man, $4,000; Andrew c. Soulard, $1,000;
Ronald T. Mcdonald, $4,000; Simon OF
tenburg, So 900. All the men are held
under one general warrant charging them
with participating in the fraudulent in
solvency of a moneyed corporation"
Beside this charge there is a charge
of forgery against Mcdonald and a
charge Of perjury against Blant. Coun-
selOr Untermeyer for the receiver was
seen by a reporter today. Among other
things he said: when the bank failed
it was found that a secret agreement
was made at the time the notes were
discounted which in practical effect made
the loans almost perpetual because the
bonds were not allowed to be sold under
90 and 90 was not obtainable. The claim
is that Mcdonald taking advantage Of
his position as acting president of the
bank, changed the entire character Of
security. Before that it could have been
sold but with that Endorsement ii became
unstable. 1t would appear as though
this was a very serious offense and not
a mere technical crime"
The hearing Of the case was set down
by Judge MARITIME for Nov. 4, when all
the accused directors will be examined.
All assert their innocence and have de-
manded the hearing.

one arm around his wife, and, shaking

from the police station and the officers
were enabled to make their way to the

were directed and at whom stones and
other missiles now began to be thrown.
The officers finally succeeded in getting
Slattery to the hotel Just at the en-
trance the mob, now numbering upward
of thousands, made a desperate effort
to wrench Slattery from the officers, but
the latter pushed him into the hosiery
and closed the doors leaving the mob
outside. over half of the throng are still
standing in little knots in the vicinity Of
the hotel, but the police are rapidly dis

were unframed. Both say they are used
to such demonstrations, but in a vastly
milder form. Several arrests have been
made by the police. The better class Of

ferring the model battleship Illinois to
the state of Illinois as an armory for

close of the worlds fair was passed.
The repeal bill was taken up at 11:SO
a. m. and Mr.. Wolcott addressed the
senate
Mr.. Sherman Of Ohio followed Mr.
Wolcott In the course of his speech he
said:

that the fund of $780, 900 in gold at
this moment is used contrary to the
provisions of the existing law. Under
the law that fund must remain in the
treasury and cannot be taken for any
purpose whatever without reach of law.

Mr.. Sherman-'T say that the law of
1875, which provided for the fund has
not been changed by subsequent law.
There is no subsequent law that has any
reference to it whatever except that one
of 1882. There is another question that
has arisen in regard to the construction
of the law by which the secretary of the
treasury can sell now any Of the bonds
provided for In the refunding law for
any purpose whatever except the main
tenance of United States notes at par
with gold would like any lawyer here
to tell me whether by any act that has
passed since that time there has been
the slightest provision made that can
be construed into authority to sell bonds
except to maintain the payment Of
United States bonds. Therefore, If you
leave the secretary in the present con-
dition Of affairs unarmed with authority
to borrow money upon the credit of the
United States you neglect your public
duty when it is plainly called to your
attention. 1 say myself as lawyer that
under existing law there is no power to

the IA per cent. fifteen-year bonds, or
the per cent. ten-year bonds. except

Feeling of the Members Toward the
State Bank Tax.

Feeling of the Members Toward the
State Bank Tax.
The proceedings of the house this morn
ing were opened by Representative Hud-
son of Kansas, who rose to a personal
privilege and had read a long Washing
ton dispatch containing a statement pur-
porting to have been made by Judge
Lamoreaux, commissioner of the general
land Office. to a congressman relative to
the investigation of the Cherokee strip
outrages. The statement delved into the
intricaces of Kansas politics and init
mated that Mr.. Hudson said his popu-
listie coat was simply mask for simon
pure democracy. The statement was fol-
lowed by some observations of the news
paper correspondent relative to the al
legged antagonism between Speaker Crisp
and Secretary Hoke Smith, and the
formers alleged ambition for a seat in
the senate.
Mr.. Hudson had a letter from Judge
Lamoreaux read DENYING that he had
given the correspondent the statement,
and he (Hudson) denied ali knowledge Of
the matter himself and hoped the speak
er would get the senatorship if he wants
it. A wave of applause over the floor
and galleries answered this compliment
airy allusion TO the speaker. Another
disturbance followed over the resolution
reported back from the banking and cur
rency committee by Chairman Springer
calling for information as to the state
banks, recently introduced. Some Of
the friends Of the repeal of the state
bank tax thought they saw in this reso-
luton an attempt to throw an obstacle
in the way of the measure.
Mr.. Hall of Wisconsin opposed this
resolution.
Mr.. Johnson Of Indiana declared that
congress needed, and should have this
information before it acted on such an
important question as the proposition to
retuvinate state banks and wildcat
money. If the time has come, said he,
when congress cannot obtain bonafide

The rise in the value of silver
upon the London market, which
for week or ten days has been
quite noticeable, is ascribed to the
belief by Gnanciers that Russia con-
templates in the near future the
adoption of the white metal as an
important factor in her monetary
system. Should the plan be CORR
ed out it will, without any doubt,
favorably affect the situation of af-
fairs. The amount of silver in
circulation as money in the Russian
autonomy is not quite 81 cents per
head, and she could easily absorb
two hundred and fifty million dol
lars of it. Her. commerce. with
Persia, Herat, Cabul, India and
China being exclusively or silver
money basis, would Of a necessity
be greatly benefited by such step.

Orient might thereby be SO affected

sumption of the silver mining in
