Special to the RECORD UNION.
WAsHINGToN, June 1.-The Star has
this: Information coming from silver
sources makes it safe to predict that there
will be comparatively little trouble to
pass bill through the House to repeal
the Sherman silver law soon after Con-
gress meets. How the thing will stand
in the Senate is another story, but it will
probably be found that the Finance Com
mittee will have majority for the repeal
of the present law. The reason given by
some of those who will drop from the
ranks of the radical silver men is that in
the light of the present financial situa-
ton many of their people, without yield
ing their convictions on the silver ques-
ton, are willing that the Sherman law
should be repealed at once, leaving the
question of the future coinage Of silver
open. How far this result will affect the
distribution or Withholding of patronage
by Cleveland may be left for inference.
But it is certain that Cleveland has not
lost sight of this issue in dealing with
statesmen who have been making pill
grimages to the White House.

gold engaged to-day at New York for

Secretary Carlisle has ordered gold

this gold is now on the way to New York.
A RUAGoR WITH LITTLE CREDENCE.
New YORK, June 2.-Touching the
taking of measures by the Administra-
ton to replenish the gold reserve, the
rumor is current in Wall street that an
attempt will be made to force the hands
of the Executive by exporting a consid-
cradle quantity of gold, so as to bring
the reserve in the neighborhood OF $50
100000, and thus lead to bond issue.
The rumor finds little credence, and in
terviews with the most prominent bank
ers indicate feeling that a bond issue
would not necessarily he a good thing,
since the gold reserve has been broken
and 40 special harm has resulted.
The best informed men say, however,
the present commercial depression has
gone too far to be entirely checked. The
time has not yet come for the re-exten-
sion of credit on a large scale, and the
present process of contraction must work
itself out to its limits. They regard the
gold exports and even the Sherman law
itself now merely incidents, not causes.

and revolverS marched from one quarry
to another gaining additions to their
ranks, and, stopping at many saloons on
the way until, almost crazed with liquor,
they left the quarries and rushed upon
the nearest camp of the contractors of the
drainage canal line. Camp after camp
was visited, and in each the men were
driven from their work, and where they
resisted were assaulted by the strikers.
Many men were severely injured, and it
is thought one, James Powderly, will die.
The rioters encountered no really seri-
Gus opposition until they reached the
camp of the Mccormick Construction
Company. Here they were met by Nc
Cormick himself, and he told them not to
do any damage to his property. Thete-
upon they began to hurl rocks at him.
Mccormick retreated and procured a
Winchester rifle, at the sight of which
the rioters fled. His men, however, all
quit work.
At Mason, Hogan & Kings camps they
struck and wounded Peter King, a
brother of the contractor.
A freight train on the Santa Fe killed
one of the strikers, who was on the track
near Romeo.
The strikers number about 1900 men,
1900 of them being employed on the
drainage. The cause of the strike is that
stone companies reduced wages from l64
cents to 10 cents per hour.
The strike also extends to Joliet,
where from 300 to 400 men are out because
of the same reduction. The drainage
contractors are unable to learn why the
strike has been ordered on them, as there
was no reduction in wages.

Marriage Law.
CANTON CO.,, June 1.-The Lutheran
General Synod has adjourned. The APP
preparations allowed will make an assess
ment of So cents on each community. and
such assessment was ordered. A few
years ago the Iowa District Synod asked
the General Synod to pass on the question
OF marriage and divorce. The memorial
was referred to a committee and it re-
ported on it substantially as follows:
Your committee, recognizing the great
importance OF the matter and the high
necessity of keeping the action of the
church and ministry in clear harmony
with the law, marriage service by the
ministry OF the church can be properly
given only under the conditions, relations
and limitations set forth in that divine
law which the church and ministry
represent.
Resotged, That the Synod understands the
ulNlne law as allowing no dissolution of the
marriage bonds except for the one cause
specified, viz: adultery, ana consequently as
not permitting the, remarriage OF persons
divorced on other grounds or of the guilty
party IN a case OF legitimate divorce.
ReSotred, That the General Synod hereby
places on record its earnest desire that minis
tiers OF SynodS in connection with it should
carefully harmonize their practices in the
solemn1Zat1on OF marriage with these divine
principles and the rules they indicate
Resotred, Inasmuch as the terrible and de-
moraiizinS evils OF easy divorce for unscrip-
tural reasons is greatly aggravated bv
the civil laws of marriage in various
States OF the Union, this Synod hereby ex-
presses its desire for a national law of mar
riage by which the evil may be restrained and
corrected.
A resolution was passed that raised the
ire of the California delegation. But their
numerical strength was not sufficient to
defeat it. 1t was on the Chinese question.
and reads:
Resolred. That we the General synod Of the
Evangelical Lutheran Church respectfully
ask the Congress of the United States in deal
ing with the Chinese people, 10 exhibit the
spirit which Christians should show to those
who are their neighbors
