rwENrY-FoUR TO ONE.

AS translated by himself, Congress
man HALLS answer to the Times re-
quest for his opinion as to the plan to
adopt regarding the currency was that
he suggested the free and equal coinage
of gold and silver Oh a new ratio based
on their present bullion values, thus
giving honest bimetallism. Mr.. HALL.
with needless modesty, says that this is
his impression, not his fixed opinion.
There have not been wanting indica-
tons that a material change has come
over some of the extreme free coinage
men who voted for the bill to permit
free and unrestricted coinage at the
present ratio of sixteen to one. Senator
VEST, who moved the amendment to
the SHERMAN bill in the Fifty-irst con-
gress, which converted that bill into a
free coinage measure, is now in favor
of readjustment of the ratio, and sug-
gests twenty to one as compromise.
The Times interviews show numbers
of Western members fayoring new
ratio. The silver miners of wider and
more far-sighted views are reported as
favoring a ratio on present values,
which would be about twenty-four to
one. as, in the end, better for them
selves, viewing it from purely bust
ness point.
A readjustment on anything much
less than the market values of the
metals would be of short life and little
real benefit. 1t would restrict the coin
to the function of tokens, and prevent
its utilization in international trade as
currency OF as anything but bullion.
More than that. it would be needless
sacrifice of principle, for if congress
can be brought to any change of ratio
iC can be as we'll brought to twenty-four
to one as to twenty to one.
When, year ago, the GLOBE sug-
gested the adoption of ratio at market
value of the bullion, it was objected,
and with some justice, that the market
value of silver was shifting so rapidly
that this would neeesSitate a constant
change and recoinage. That objection
does not lie at this time, for silver has
varied but little in value during the
year. ranging about IS cents an ounce.
This gives warrant for the expectation
that the white metal has found its eaui-
librium, and its coinage on the actual
ratio can be made free, guarded by
proviso that when the value drops below
say so cents All ounce, coinage shall
cease until it is restored or a new ratio
adopted.
This is the honest course to take. and
the only legitimate, as it is the only safe
one. Anything like less ratio, like
the purchase acts. is an assumption of a
doubtful and an unsafe power. The
government stamp Oh any coin, except
the subsidiary coins, should never be
anything but the certificate to users of
money that the piece has the value,
recognized world wide, stated OH its
face. This is what the Chicago plat
form means, if it means anything. The
parity there declared for means that
the coins shall have interchangeable
values, the metals in each being of the
actual value named by the die. This
would give US the use of both metals in

CRACKS AT CHICAGO.
Kany of the Derby Candidates
Now CHARTERED at Washing
ton Park.
If the Present Superb Weather
Continues the Track Will Be
Very Fast.

CHICAGO. June 19.-1f the present
can Derby at Washington park next
Saturday will be run over the fastest
track III the history of the big event.
Those stables which have arrived ana
are sending their cand Idates over the
course on which the 100000 stake is
to be won and lost have a great
advantage. as every condition is favor
able to training. NJ. F. DIVERS colt,
Don AlOnzO, the favorite in adv ance
betting for the event, arrived at the
track this morning. He and his stable
companion, Nomad. showed 10 ill
effects of the journey. Don AlOnZo
was given no work today, but will
be asked to go the distance either
tomorrow or next day. The opinion Of
those who saw the DIVER colt is that
he is now tit to go into the race. The
elder Lamley will be here to ride him
Saturday. q. w. Johnson came Sun
day morning, and is universally admit
ted to outclasS any of the other Derby
candidates so far as looks are con-
eerned. His work, however, has
not impressed the rail birds. There is
suspicion that the Oneck stable is keep
ing JOhnson'S real ability concealed.
Lookout and BOundless, of the Cushing
stable, were exercised a mile and
quarter today. Lookout was kept in
front, but appeared to want to quit,
and BoundleSs was kept under
strong rein. StIathroSe, the En-
gliSh candidate, exercised at a slow
gait, as in the custom of Trainer Sweep
er. ID. j. McCarthy's Oporto has begun
to attract some attention; he went
mile in Az today. drawing away
from Bernardo easily. Mccarthy won
the Derby in 1885 with c ii Todd, 100
to shot. RamapO, Chorister, ana ST.

NO ANS w ER.

Speaker CRISP returned to the Ne w
York Times the following answer to its
telegram asking him if he favored the
repeal of the SHERMAN act and what
was his plan of currency legislati on:
mo answer to your telegram" On this
the Times makes the foil owing severe
but merited comment promising that
it is not easy to speak of it without
using unpleasant terms, or without
leaving the way open to unpleasant in
ferences:"
Mr. CRISP was the speaker of the last
house of representatives and is a candidate
for reelection to that honorable post 1t is
perfectly clear why he declines to express
his views upon the very important question
OF the currency. Until he is securely seated
in the speakers chair he will have no views
for publication as to the repeal of the SHEER
MAN act Cowardice is doubly contemplate
when it is unnecessary. but Mr.. CRISP must
be Judge whether he will gain or lose more
by suppressing his principles, supposing
him to have any principles, in order to make
sure of a reelection as speaker.

BEGAN ARGUMENTS.
to Hear the Pleas in the
Borden Case.
Scenes in the Afternoon Were Dis
graceful, Ladies Being Pushed
and Tossed About.

NEW BEDFORD, Mass. June 19.-The
day of arguments in the Borden case
brought terrific jam at the court
house, and over an hour before the time
of opening the doors were besieged by
people. mostly ladies in holiday at
tire, all hoping for seats. But
there were not enough seats for the
accommodation of tenth of the
claimants. and there was much grumb-
ling In consequence. When the court
was ready for opening there were many
ladies standing i'll the alSleS, but they
were quickly ushered to the ante-rooms
and corridors and obliged to sniff the
battle from afar. The bar enclosure
was packed with legal lights. The jury
took their seats at $3.50 looking quite
refreshed after two days rest, and a
few minutes later Miss Borden came in.
a bunch of pinks i'll her hand and
a contented smile on her face. AL
most Immediately Gov. Robinson began
his argument. The scenes about the
court house this afternoon were dis
graceful. There was no system about
the method of seating people, and ladies'
were tossed about the walks, the corri-
doris and on the stairs in the most
reckless and careless manner.
When Miss Borden appeared she was
pushed and crowded about just as every
one else was, and there was some as
perity in her manner as she entered the
court room and faced the buZzing
crowd. Gov, Robinson continued his
address. He reviewed the whole case,
and said that it was dangerous to take
the view that if Miss Borden did not do
the deeds they could not see who did
them. He said:
IF you are satisfied she is not guilty,
then you will so report. What Is there
to prove to you absolutely that she is
guilty?"
1t was o'clock when Gov. Robinson
closed his plea and a recess of five
minutes was allowed before District At
torney Knowlton took up his work. Mr..
KnoWlton had not concluded his argu-
ment when the court adjourned for the
day.
A Baltimore dispatch sent out last
night has caused some sensational in
quirieS as to the whereabouts of a
young man named Felix Borden, who
was there some months ago and eX-
pressed his opinions about Lizzie
Borden. A Standard reporter learned
that Felix was i'll this city
and working at the Whitcomb
house care. He states that he is the
adopted son of the late Charles T.
Borden, Mansfield druggist, who was
dfstantly related to Andrew Borden.
For some time he has been travelling
as advance agent for a circus company,
which was stranded in Provincetown.
He then came here and went to
the Whitcomb house. Young Borden
says he knew Lizzie and her father only
by sight, and If he told Mrs. Ramsey, OF
Baltimore, that Lizzie committed the
murders, mis- opinions were formed OH
the newspaper reports and not from
any knowledge of LiZzie's character.
He could not remember, seither, just
VIII ere he was at the time of the muir
ders, because the show business kept
him travelling most of the time, but he
had an idea that he was in Providence.

SUBURBAN TIPS.
LampIighter Believed by Many to
Be a Sure Winner of the
Great Event.
Banquet Will Undoubtedly Be the
Second Fayorite in the Bet
ting Today.

New YORK. June 19.-The most cee-
brated of all American handicaps. the
Suburban, which is also the best-known
and most talked-abOut race in any coun.
try, will be decided at the Coney Island
Jockey club tomorrow. In The ab-
sence of Tammany. Lamplighter will
certainly go to the post the
strongest favorite ever known Elm
the history of the race. 1t is under
stood among the friends of Mr.. LOril-
lard that If Lamplighter loses the race
by any foul riding or lneXcusable
jOStling or interference, he will sell
out his stable and retire from
the turf. Next TO Lamplighter, Ban
quet'S chances for the race are liked by
turfmen. Recent performances of Ban
qnet indicate that Lamplighter will
have to be at his very best to defeat him.
Raceand. Suburban winner, will be
Michael Dryers second string in tho
big race. Charade. w. Il. Jones'
representative, winner of the Metropol-
itan handicap, will in all probability
have the benefit of GarrlSOn's able jock
eyship. Even with this, however, his
chances are not seriously cOnsid-
cred by experts, as they believe
the weight-1l7 pounds-will stop linn.
Inc distance also Is not 10 MS nKlng.
DR.. Hasbrouck, the king of sprinters,
has received a Splendid preparation
for the race, and many are in
clined to believe that the colt
has good chance to win. Lowander,
who also performed poorly on Saturday,
is an uncertain quantity. The Pepper
will carry the cOlors of the copper
king, Marcus Daily. He is in the
Suburban at comfortable weight
and it is likely that he will be among
those fighting it out at the finish. Pes
sara will represent WalcOtt ~ Camp
bell, but it IS hardly likely that he
will duplicate the performance OF
DiablO. the winner of this years
Brooklyn handicap, and who is owned
by the same stable. Mars will carry
the all scarlet cOlors of Morris " Sons.
His recent work has not been satisfac-
tory. Iddlesleigh, Col. North's entry,
may be the dark horse in the race.
He ran a very creditable race in
the Metropolitan handicap, and oil his
only other appearance also showed well.
The only other starter will be Father
Bill Days Terrilier. Good judges be-
lieve he has not the ghost OF chan &C.
The track is in fine condition tonight,
and if the weather holds good fast time
may be expected in Americas greatest
race.
