Denver's Troubles Solved by the Com
mencemcnt of Public Works
in the City.
Trains Captured by Idle Men Who
Were Bent on Seeking
Other Fields.

DENVER, Col, July 3l.--The Union
Pacific officials have applied to the city
authorities for protection from the mob
of IDLE men that has for ten days past
il tested the company's yards at Fortieth
street Several trains have been cap
tured by the men, who forced the crews
to haul them out of the city. Several
hundred men have gone east in this way
and the company has grown tired of it,
so protection has been demanded of the
mayor. A police force will hereafter be
stationed at the yards.
The city was quiet all day and the in
dications are that the expected outbreak
among the unemployed will not occur.
There we're no signs of agitation today,
although the superintendent of the
Union Pacific railway petitioned the city,
county and state authorities to afford
his road protection against crowds de
sirous of going east. The company is
willing to carry moderate number of
persons, but objects to hauling train
loads. No action was taken by the au-
thorities
One thousand persons were fed today
at Camp Relief. About 800 left on the
different roads.
| At meeting of the relief committee
it was resolved to discontinue Camp Re-
lief next Thursday morning. 1t was also
resolved that the transportation commit
tee should not issue any further tickets
to those desiring to go east, but, begin
nlng tomorrow morning, those going will
have to pay full fare. The above actor
was caused by the deci,ion of the city
council to begin at once public improve
ments. Men with families will be giver
the preference in obtaining employment
on the public works.

VEST FOR SILVER.
The Missouri Senator Throws Some
Light on the Question in
an Interview.
Some Solid Truths That Will Have
Weight When Congress Con-
vrnrS Next Week.

ST. LorIs, Aug LIN an interview
here today Senator Vest, the Missouri
"War Eagle said;
Can anyone tell where this will all
end? Nine men out of every ten | meet
say. Repeal the Sherman silver law
Will that do it? If that will we can re-
peal it. Not easily, | must admit, but
we can do it.
"The country is right now at the most
critical period in its financial history.
We have been travelling along on make
shifts of one kind and another since
1873. Expedients will avail no longer.
I'VE must either take up our silver
and defend ii against the world or drop
it, demonetize it, declare that it is not
available as basis of currency, and de-
clare that the constitutional right
granted to congress to coin money means
that we shall coin gold only.
THE outlook is gloomy. We are in
fog 1t may continue to spread, and
there is no way to Judge of its extent.
1t may lift. as fogs do sometimes, as sud
denly as it formed and find us under the
sunlight in a smiling sun. In this, as in
all other dilemmas, the nation turns to
the lawmaking power and cries, Help
u.s.
"On the last Fourth of July | heard
an orator down in Virginia say to vast
audience: How is it that France with
population of only 100000 and terri
tory only one-thirtieth as large as ours
can keep S1O0OOO,00O of silver on parity
with gold? How is it that she, with
population composed mainly of ignorant
peasants. can keep II gold reserve of
S250OOOUO0: What il the matter with
our statesmen that We cannot dc that:
Are we not better, then, than these
Erenchmen: What is all this tall, of
our inestmablc material wealth that we
hear SO much about: Where are our
statesmen. where are our financiers:
Nov, that is the kind of argument
that reflects the popular mind upon the
money question. How will it be possible
to convert the nation to a faith IL mono
metalism-to single gold Standard"
"Put the question to vote Of the peo-
pie of Missouri and they would declare
for the retention of silver by 100000 ma
jority Get away from cities and you
meet nothing but silver men.

BRIGHT FOR SILVER
Ringing Resolutions Passed by the
Great Congress Of Bi-Metall-
isis at Chicago.
The Nillainy of 1873 Brought li"me
to the Entire Country TINS
Time.

CuIcAGo, Aug. 2.-lSpecial to the
TRIBUNE. The meetings of the Bi-
Metallic league were largely attended
today and the utmost enthusiasm pre-.
vailed. Speeches were made by OK
Senator Hill of Colorado, }. h. Doolittle
of Wisconsin, Congressman Newlands
Of Nevada. Gov. Waite of Colorado. lg
natius Donnelly, and others.
The committee on resolutions made a
long repoyt, the preamble citing that bi-
metallism is as ancient as human his
tory, for certainly more than 5000 years
gold and silver come down through the
ages, their relations having varied but
little in all that time, and then almost
invariably through legislation. That
both metals we're woven together and in
dissolubly united in the constitution OF
the United States as the money basis OF
this country. That in 1873, without pre-
vious demand from any political party
or any part of the people, and without
pubIic discussion, silver was stricken
from the place 1t had occupied since the
days of Abraham and Pharaoh, under
circumstances Of such secrecy that y. q
Thurman, William Stewart, ID. w. Noor
hees, and j. G.. Blaine, the then speaker
Of the house, j. A. Garfield, and Other
members of congress voting Tor the bill
subsequently declared that they did moi
know until long afterward that such {
great change had been made in the
financial system.
The resolutions conclude: There mus
be a settlement Of this question. N
legislation demonetizing silver must bt
imme diately repealed and an act passet
restoring the coinage Of the country L
the conditions established by the found
ers of the nation, and which continued
for eighty years without complaint OF
the part of the people"

SAVED by A WOMAN.
How George Nande derbiIt's Life Was Saved
by Mrs Dodge.

by Mrs Dodge.
BAR HARuoR, Aug. 2.-George Van
derbilt is young man pretty well known
to fame, and Mrs. Charles Dodge is the
daughter of John Bigelow. who was
once minister to France. Mrs. Dodge, a
few days ago, saved George Vanderbilt's
life. He says so himself. The story Of
this adventure reverses the usual order
of things by making the heroic person
ality a woman, aud it is otherwise note
worthy.
The story is in few words, that
George Vanderbilt was drowning and
that Mrs. Dodge, although she cannot
swim, jumped in to save him, very near
" losing her life in her noble effort.
Connected with George Nanderbilt's
cottage is fine swimming pool, to
which he often invites his friends. On
this day the guests were Mrs. Dodge,
the heroine. the two Misses Shepard,
daughters of the late Elliott f., and
neces Of George Vanderbilt, Miss Beat
rice Jones, daughter of Mrs. Frederick
Rhin6lander Jones, often mentioned in
society columns, and two boys, young
f. +. Shepard, aged If, and Willie
Sloan, aged ID
Everybody was in bathing dress Mr.
Vanderbilt was performing some nata-
torial feats, when, after difficult dive
he failed to come to the surface. Mrs
| Dodge, after waiting some time, dove in
after him, and with the assistance OF
the boys, saved him. He bad been seized
with cramps. Had not tho boys beer
there both Vanderbilt and Mrs. Dodge
might have been drowned, as both were
unconscious when taken out.
