WILMINGTON, Mass. Aug. T.-George
B. Noyes, charged by government officials
with smuggling Chinese across the bor-
ders, has lived here, and his family is here
now on the Child farm At the head Of
Sandy pond They came here last fall
and engaged in raising poultry, business
they had carried ON in Foxboro.
Noyes has been away just 10 weeks, and
by his family and neighbors he was sup
posed TO be In Vermont buying poultry.
Nothing had been heard from him except
= letter from Nashua. N. H.. asking his
wife to send him harness.
Noyes was quite well known among the
people considering the short time he had
been here He could tell a good story,
had travelled extensively, had much to say
regarding his wanderings, and was not
backward in making acquai ntances.
1--WE have not seen him these 10 weeks.
and we should like to hear from him." re-
marked his wife. She did not exhibit
much surprise when told Of the charge
against her husband; In fact, she hardly
thought it crime; but when told it was
such remarked: WHAT my husband
charged with smuggliag Chinesei Is that
alli Will they punish him for thatf"
A few days previous to leaving Noyes
took his wagon to Woburn and had some
side coverings put OH it, 1t had top.
This was put ON car here and shipped to
Nashua Noyes was accompanied when
he left by young Vanderplank, who had
been working for him.
A story which gained credence here, that
Noyes inherited $i50,0W and got rid Of IL
in two years, is denied by his wife, who
says she never heard of it, She has no
money,

DEBATE IS ENDED.
The Vote on The Silver Bill Will Be Taken On
Monday.

WASHINGTON, Aug. 2T.-The galleries of
the house were filled with spectators Sat
hrdsy morning before the hour of meeting
no a. m.) }, attracted by the announcement
that the last day of the great silver debate
was to be signalized by battle of the ora
torical giants of the house.
The chaplain in his closing prayer asked
Gods blessing on the closing hours OF this
long debate. "Thou hast already sent thy
blessing, for it has been conducted in
mild. christian like spirit. May nothing
occur 70 mar that spirit as the debate
comes to its close. And we beseech thee,
whatever may be the result Of it, that
that result may prove to be "a lasting ben
eft to the largest number of thy people"
The speaker announced the order OF the
days proceedings. Under the hour rule.
he said the time in favor Of the bill would
close with the member from West Nir-
ginia, Mr.. Wilson. and the time in opposi-
ton to it by the member from Missouri
(Mr. Bland)
The first 30 minutes was assigned by Mr..
Wilson to Mr. Clarke (Dem.) of Missouri
He believed it to be the duty Of congress
L.
there was no difference, in the ability Of
the country to carry out silver coinage be
tween 10 and 20 ratio. If the country
could do it with ratio of 70 to l, it could
do it with a ratio Of 1G to l. Still he would
not cast vote that would paralyze or
continue the paralysis of industry all
through the country; and IN his section
there WAS no question about the necessity
Of immediate action
In Order to Restore Confidence.
The trouble was thought to be due to the
policy of purchasing silver under the
Sherman law; and. whether that belief
was correct or not, he would vote to repeal
that law (applausel He would do any
thing that wodld restore confidence.
Mr.. Clarke was followed by Mr.. Reed of
Maine, who began to speak at i0:30. After
an introduction, IN which he outlined the
general situation, Mr.. Reed said that the
first distrust arose from the doubt whether
the United States was not rapidly ap-
preaching a system which would invaria-
bly, result in "a silver standard and a lower
ing of the value of the dollar as compared
with the gold standard upon which the
country was then undertaking to base
itself Added to this was the uncertainty
as to policy of the present administration.
The speaker said tha. he was in favor OF
the repeal Of the purchasing clause OF the
Sherman act for two reasons. First, be-
cause the public considered the Sherman
law as the cause OF the unreasonable
boarding of currency; second, because
when the time came the repeal would as
sist on the upward path to the next period
Of prosperity and progress.
Mr. Reed argued that the people want
gold standard, and do not want silver
standard thrust upon them without their
knowing it He also spoke at length On
the evils Of bimetailism.
