SENATOR WHITES IDEA.
1t Is Absurd to Talk of Single
Gold Standard.

WASHINGTON. Aug. Ex-senator While
said to THE CALL correspondent tonight
that he did not believe the unconditional
repeal of the Sherman purchasing act
could be accomplished. He says the silver
men will at least be able to prevent silver
coinage from being completely abandoned.
The slverites may have to accept coinage
at an increased ratio. but even this Will bs
better than nothing. II the Sherman pur-
chasing act should be repealed without
any Substitute being provided there ould
be slump" In silver that would be ruin
Gus. American silver money would viz
tuallv be repudiated. and the result might
even be so far-reaching as to affect subsid-
larry coins. 1t might sound to some people
like an exaggeration. but be believed there
would even be danger that our silver
money would be so debased that our quar-
tiers and half-dollars would be deprecated.

WHERE VEST STANDS.
NO Bill That Ignores Silver Can Pass
the Senate.

WASHINGTON. Aug Il. - The Senate
Democratic caucus committee has ad-
]onrned until Monday, having failed to
agree on any plan of procedure. The fact
that the House has agreed and has two
weeks discussion before it relieves the
senate OF the necessity for hurry, and it
Is PROBABLE no settled policy will be reac h ed

OVERRULED THE CAR
DIR. Witte Is a Great Man in
Russia Himself.
The Tariff War With Germany Will
Be Fought Without Quarter
Asked or Given.
Special to THE MORNING CALL.

BERLIN, Aug. PA finance committee
composed of delegates from the Federated
States will meet in Berlin in September.
The semi official announcement from
Frankfort that the conference which was
recently in session there had agreed to the
general principles OF the new taxation plan
is not credited here. In the best in formed
quarters quite the contrary is believed.
Count Won Schouvaloff. Russian Emtas-
sador 10 Germany, has gone to ST. Peters
burg to try to counter the anti-German
policy of DIR. Wite, the Russian Finance
Minister. and General Won Werder, German
ambassador to Russia, has been granted
an audience by the Gar. He was accom-
panied by Count Won Schouvaloff, and
both OF them urged that a commercial
eatente be concluded between Russia and
Germany. 1t is reported that DR.. White,
after the interview, declared to the Gar
that be would resign his office il the tariff
war with Germany was abandoned with
out the required concessions being made
by Germany.
White was strongly supported by the
Imperial Council and the Car was obliged
to give way to him in the matter. The
latest DEVELOPMENTS of the struggle thus
justify the official warnings issued here to
the public not to trust the report that a
settlement of the tariff troubles was close
at hand. On Thursday the Emperor
signed decree adding 80 per cent to the
duties collected on finished products i'm
ported into Germany, and this increased
tariff Will practically cause the ruin of the
leading branches OF trade in Finland.
The proceedings of the American Con-
gress are watched with keen interest here.
The proposed visit in September of Car
dinal Ledochowski, project of the con-
creation of the Propaganda Eide to Berlin
and Posen. will be the first time he will
have visited those cities since he was
exiled in 1876. and is exciting all Catholic
Germany. The Cardinal wants the quietest
kind of reception. but the Prussian
Catholics ara determined to give him
nublic ovation.

"A Quaint Custom.

A unique proceeding in connection
with the distribution of the White Bread
Meadow charity takes place annually
during the first week in April at Bourne,
Lincolnshire. By the will of Richard
Clay, gentleman, dated July ., ITO,
some land was allotted to the inhabit-
ants for the time being residing in the
east portion of the town, the rent being
every year laid out in bread and dis
tributed to the householders and COM
moners. The letting of the meadow Is
attended by large concourse Of people,
the bidding being regulated by the rum
ming of boys.
The auctioneer starts the boys to run
fixed distance, whereupon he requests
bids for renting the property one year.
If bid is made during the time the
boys are running, they are immediataly
started off again and again until no bid
shall have been made during the time
the boys are running, when the last bid
der is declared the lessee. The public
afterward adjourn to an inn, where q

are supplied ad lib. to all who wish to
partake, after which committee for
managing the charity for the following

Self Medication as a Science.

Imagination has too much to do with
o mans practice on himself. One who
reads the little textbook on physiology
in the schools will Immediately discern
in every rumble of his intestines the
kind Of action the gastric juices are TAX
ing on the food that has gone into the
stomach, and he soon becomes, if he
pushes his investigation further, a mo-
nonaniac on hygiene. 1t is true that a
man or woman who has arrived at the
age of 40 years ought to be able to de-
eide at glance the kind of food suited
best to their digestive organs, and expe-
rience ought TO teach them never to
touch any food that disagrees with them.
This is true also of drinking. When
man is 40 years of age, he ought to un-
derstand himself sufficiently to guard
against all imprudences in either eating
or drinking or working, but that is about
all he ought to know about it.. He ex-
poets TO be employed as an expert on
others in his own line of study, and he
ought to be willing to reciprocate by
employing o physician when he is sick.

where the Boston II otcls, silver Goes

The fad of collecting spoons for SOU
venirs has ramifcations little dreamed
of by those who toy curiously with the
quaint little products of the silversmith's
art as they sip out of dainty porcelain
the fragrant brew from my lady's tea
ball.
Harvard boys are faddist as we'll as
their sisters and sweethearts, but they do
not seek the uttermost ends Of the earth
for their treasures. The famous and
hospitable hostelries of the neighboring
Hub are where they carry on their dep
relations.
The more thoughtful and honest first
make sure that the obliging waiter does
not have to replace the missing article.
and then they slyly slip fork or spoon
into a pocket, and no matter what the
check may amount to the spoony sopho-
more is happy, for he has added an
other to his collection with which to
mystify his fair friends.
This accounts for one who at little
spread took tea from an Adams House
spoon and salad from fork bearing the
word "Parker's."
If the student has been industrious,
every individual of party uses silver
from different hostelry.-Boston Her
