embarrass prompt action.
After repeal shall have been effected. the
requisite steps should then be instituted
whereby In the near future free blmetallio
coinage may be restored MS 1t existed prior to
1873 This probably cannot be done at once.
1t will require careful preparation to mature q
satisfactory plan. The financial situation has
been much changed by recent events. and ex-
treme caution Is demanded.
Renator Hill said In his February speech In
urging repeal OF the Sherman law. that It
is a necessary. safe. and for to-day sufficient
step toward free bimotallic coinage"
The altered condition OF affairs at this time
may now permit or demand the imn, ediate
adoption OF comprehensive and adequate
measure OF permanent relief II So Senator
Hill will be It's most earnest and efficient advo-
cate: but he will do nothing hastily. nothing
prematurely nothing unadvisedly. He will
oppose all compromises with monom etallists
whereby q restricted and discredited silver
currency. satisfactory to no one. shall be au-
thorized but will insist that there shall be free
coinage for silver as we'll as gold. He docs not
expect victory for his views at once but he
confidently expects that they will ultimately
prevail.
While not authorized to speak for senator
Hill. we believe We have accurately stated his
position and sentiments, gathered by us from
q recent very careful examination OF his pa
pers. letters, and public utternnces.

messages at tho cable offices to DO transmitted
to their correspondents IN the respective

Brazil, that cipher or secret messages were
prohibited. and In the case Of Nicaragua that
Geographic communication with certain
provinces was stopped by the authorities.

the knights Of old or warriors bold OF me-
dinval times. striking out for the Western
country to encompass the final overthrow OF

In Baltimore the street car motorman

Baltimore idea is that in following this
rule the motorman thereby has oppor-
tunity of seeing up and down either

vehicle.
In order to avoid accident it is neces-
sary that the motorman, and not the

paper has this to say concerning Charles
NJ. Wharton of this city;
"Wharton, right guard, has an ideal
build for the position. At times his
work is of the brilliant order, and then
again opponents have little trouble in
going through his position. He is young
at the game and is likely to be fooled by
old and experienced guards. Wood
ruff has been watching this player very
carefully during the past week, and as a
consequence he is improving. Wharton
has bad abscess on his left ear, which
troubles him considerably, but will
without doubt play in the Harvard
game"

favorable to the young Wilmington

should know that this is WhartOn's frs
