AN OBSTINATE CRISIS.

Some days ago n New York paper sug-
gested the propriety of invoking another
crisis to induce the Senate to pass the sill
yer repeal bill. But the silver men in the
Senate did not scare so easily as was ex-
pectcd. They kept right on talking silver,
and the more they talked the better times
became. The old crisis moved off. The
New York banks paid up their clearing
house certificates and are now overrun
with money. This financial clearing up,
willis the prospects of the silver repeal
bill are becoming darker each day, may
serve to warn Mr.. Clevei and that he, like
other mortals, is liable 10 an error of judg-
ment
A Chicago gold lunatic printed the other
day column of extracts from gold papers,
each frantically calling uron the Senate to
hurry up. The very existence Of the coun-
try was supposed TO be depending upon
the repeal of law ordering the purchase
Of little silver each month. The best
known journals in the United States were
quoted from and it is hardly too much to
say that in opposite proportions to reputed
greatness was the grade OF fiap-doodle to
which they gave utterapce. Even the
PHILADELPHIA Ledger got off its high plane
of dignity to give the Senate round iu the
following true pugilstic style:
The question which the Senate of the United
States Is paltering and juggling with is not only
shall the Sherman law be repealed. In accord
ance with the demand OF The country but shall
the bedrock principle Of our Government the
right Of the majority to rule, principle until
now never disDuted he maintained or ahan-
doned ? There has already been too long delay,
too much trifling in respect TO these serious
questions and the country expects the majority
OF The Senate TO settle them by any means In Its
power.
But the Senate continued to palter and
juggle. 1t has done nothing since but
palter and juggle. The Ledger appears to
be much In the frame of mind of certain
schoolmaster whose authority was openly
derided. "Wil you mind ?" asked the
schoolmaster. mol" answered the de-
rider. "Well then. 90 to blazes your own

THE ELECTION BILL PASSED.

The prediction that the Tucker repeal
bill would be opposed by certain Demo-
Gratis unless amendments were adopted
was not verified. The bill in all its naked
deformity received the votes of every
Democrat present at the time. All
amendments were voted down and on the
final vote on the original bill three
hundred affirmative votes were cast.
There is hope that the bill may be
amended in the Senate and that the House
may be compelled 80 accept the amend
ment. There is Democratic majority of
i've in the Senate. but the Republicans and
Populsts of Republican antecedents may.
under the rules Of that body, hold the
small Democratic majority inactive until
a compromise measure is agreed upon.

pushed during the temporary financial
stringency, but there has been no thought
of abandoning it. The closer the situation
is examined the greater the necessity of
the road. Getting goods to San Francisco
at low rates is but half the battle; the
other half is to get them to the hands of
consumers. The address speaks with
pleasure of the disappearance of the
distrust of the city which at one time
existed in the interior. The San Joaquin
Railroad will be of as much benefit to the
interior as to the city.

PECULIAR WOUNDS.
An Insane Patient Treated at the
Receiving Hospital.

Alexander Talamer, held for examina-
ton as an insane person, was taken from
the Home of the Inehriates TO the City Hall
Yesterday. When that place was reached
1t was found necessary to convey Talamer
to the Receiving Hospital. as he was suf-
fering from three severe wounds. One
was in the heel. the bones OF which were
fractured The other two were on the
face, one on the chin and the other on the
forehead.
DR.. Samuels, who examined Talamer's
wounds, said they were of a peculiar
character. The attendants who took Tai
lamer TO the City Hall said that the
wounded man fell from chair. DR.. Sam
uels says it is impossible that Talamer
could have received such injuries in such a
manner, and that they must have been
otherwise inflicted. Talamer is at the Re-
celvine Hospital, and his case will be in
vestigated.

to do thisi Had he forgotten how often
he had seen her smile in the face of de-

His repentance, like all his moods, was
quick and intense, the desire to make

wanted to tell her what a brute he felt
himself. He was conscious of sudden
warm impulse to fold her in his arms

''If could help her!" he thought, with
savage longing.
While regarding her more intently
than he knew, her eyes, those lovely ewes
more green than brown and tonight
more golden than green, met his in O
questioning, entreating fashion, and the
look stirred him strangely. A warm flood
poured over his heart. His veins pulsed
heavily with an incomprehensible fever
never known before, and the pain Of it
was nervous and sweet.
AS he had felt for brief moment when
he stood by her side in the mysterious
twilight, so he felt now, only the strange
ness, the pain, the delight, were intensi-
fed hundredfold. He drew his breath
with feeling of awe.
After dinner he sat down to read. It
was useless. His heartbeats were hot
and thick. A medley of indefinite spec

printed page.
He threw himself upon his bed and
tried to think what he should do. now
that he had forswOrn the ministry and
the possibility of success as q dramatist
had shriveled under that days blight.
But that was useless too. He started to
his elbow and looked with excited eyes

Delawnre,s Finances.

Little Delaware's state finances are in
n thoroughly thrifty condition, her as
sets exceeding her liabilities by nearly
100000. Her debt could be entirely
wiped out at once but for the fact that
some long term bonds cannot be advan-
tageously called in. The state many
years ago chartered several farmers
banks, all of which are now prosperous,
and in these the state has considerable
capital invested. The par value of the
states holdings in bank stock is just
short of 100000, and the market value
is q trifle over $475,OOO. Tho state ex-
penses, not including school appropria-
tions, fall little short of 100000 per
year.-New York Sun.
