from that recognized by the remainder
of the world so long as it retains COM
mercial relations with the rest of the
world. The silver question must be set
tied by international action, and we do
not see how any sane person can believe
that a real effort for international action
has been made. It is true that we have
had two or three conferences, but what
do conferences amount to? When Eu-
ropean countries wish to attain inter
national ends they do not call confer
.ences. They negotiate, they make
treaties, they resort to the arts of
diplomacy. By diplomacy the United
States could form a union of more than
half of Europe and Asia with nearly all
of America for international free COIN
age. This is a commercial question. 1t
should be made the basis of commercial
treaties. The silver men will never make
any real progress with their cause until
they quit trying to accomplish the i'm
possible. or until they quit using the
remedies proposed by their enemies.

TowED BY AN ICEBERG.
Drift Ice Was Going Chase's Way
Fast to n Berg.

The ingenuity of Capt. Chase Of the
bark Z. o. Clark, which arrived here
yesterday from Greenland, has earned
for him the proud distinction of being
the first sailing master to make his
vessel fast to an iceberg and allow it
to pull him towards his destination with
out a sail being set
The bark sailed from Ivigut, a port
on the southwest coast of Greenland.
on June 81, for Philadelphia. She was
loaded with a cargo of cryolite. She Is
one of the seven vessels that are regu-
larly engaged in carrying that little
known mineral from the far north
For three days after leaving Ivigut she
was surrounded on all sides by monster
icebergs, but they soon became lost TO
sight in a dense fog, and it was then
that the skill of a master mariner was
brought into play and thoroughly test
ed. Capt. Chase and his crew Of the
men We're kept constantly on The alert,
and the vessel beat TO and fro until the
fog lifted Then the most dangerous
ice was seen well astern. and the ship
was out of immediate danger
For six days afterwards huge bergs
were in sight but far enough away 10
preclude the possibility of collision.
Drift ice was sighted on June 80, hav-
ing been driven off shore by mort beast
rect course which the Clark was en-
deavoring to pursue. The vessel was
soon on the outer edge of an immense
field of drift ice. which extended in A
northeasterly direction as far as the
eye could reach, with an occasional berg
reaching high into the air. On the other
side was the clear water.
The Clark was soon caught in the
drift, and was so firmly held in the ice
that she was carried many miles on her
course, a line having been made fast
to one of the nearest bergs to keep her
steady. For several days all hands en-
joyed the novel experience of being
towed by an iceberg, but finally the
wind began to change the direction of
the drift Then the rope was cut, the
sails were set, and the vessel soon freed
herself. and in a few days was clear Of
the Arctic current The rest Of the long
journey was devoid of special interest

HONEST PENSION METHODS.

All old soldiers should read carefully
the statement Of Judge Lochren in ex-
PLANTATION of his position as to pensions
and the reason for his line of action.
He sets out clearly the necessity for
the suspension orders in cases that come
under the provisions OF the act of 1890
as not due to any fault of claimants
under that act, but because the pension
bureau had adopted an improper con-
struction of the law. On account of this
fault of the Raum administration it was
necessary to investigate all cases coming
under it, and this investigation is made
in manner that no reasonable man
can complain of. He says:
board of revision is therefore con-
stituted of the ablest and most expert
enced men of the bureau to re-examine
these cases, and Gull out such had
no legal basis to rest upon, and with in
structions to interfere with no case
where, by the most liberal construction,
right to the pension could be made to
appear, and in other cases where the
pension could not be sustained under
any law, to give the sixty days notice,
according to previous practice, within
WHICH the pe0SlOOef may IQrnlS0 duul-
tional evidence and show himself en-
titled. No one disputes the correctness
of the decision in the Bennett case.
My old comrades may feel sure of re-
ceiving everything to which the law
most literally construed entities them.
Partisan leaders may try to arouse feel
ing for partisan ends; but the execution
Of law upon the construction given to
1T by two heads of the same department
of opposite politics, which construction
is admitted by either to be correct, has
no political character, and 1 did not hes
itate to commit the work to a board of
revision whose ability fitted them for ii,
though most of them, with their chief.
are republicans. They are able and fair
men, and select from day to day, from
the cases examined, such cases as they
deem unlawfully allowed. If that was
the class of cases you wished drawn and
examined, the work is done every day
by this board None of the pensions in
these cases are suspended until after
condemnation by this board. 1t is ex-
pected that in very many of such cases
the pensioners will be able to produce
testimony showing them entitled to pen
sions under the law in which case the
suspension will be remoY ed.
It is naturally to be expected that the
people to whom pensions have been
Illegally granted will be indignant when
they are taken away, but certainly that
is no reason why the law should not be
enforced.

JOHN SHERMAN TALKS.

John Sherman is apparently determined
to retain his old position as manager of
finances for the republican party, and in
an interview with Frank G. Carpenter
he makes a declaration of the evils to
be anticipated from democratic fnan-
ciering- He begins. however. by con.
ceding that his own law should be
promptly repealed" In the course of his
interview he gives expression to a few
false statements and also a few denials
Of his former statements. that may be
profitably noted. Among other things he
says:
The democrats are by no means in a
happy condition. The great majority of
them have committed themselves In
times past to the free coinage of silver
which President Cleveland is anxious to
have them abandon. If they do so the
responsibility will rest upon them of de-
termining whether silver should cease
to be a standard Of value and gold alone
be the basis of our coinage and cur
rency. Their present position of oppo-
sition to the purchase of silver while
supporting the free coinage Of silver is
a ridiculous and untenable one. 1t is,
in short, a piece of hypocrisy which
would make n horse laugh.
Mr.. Sherman has been claiming for
months that the Sherman law was passed
in order to defeat free coinage He has
said that 1T was a scheme to buy up
the votes OF the silver state congress-
men. who otherwise would have voted
for free coinage. He knows that the
Sherman law was passed by a strict
party vote. Yet now he has the cheek
to say that II is hypocrisy for a free
coinage man to oppose the Sherman law.
II so II must have been equally hypo-

critical for an opponent of free coinage
to favor the Sherman law. Mr.. Sher-
man gives himself the lie in this, and
he further utters an inexcusable false
hood when he says that the responsible
ity rests on the democratic party of de-
termining whether silver shall cease
TO be a standard of value and gold alone
be the basis" No one knows better
than John Sherman that silver is not
now a standard of value in this country.
and that gold is the only basis of our
currency. He knows 1t because he made
it so by law in 1873, and has success
fully resisted every attempt to undo the
wrong. He was the real opponent of
free coinage in 1878 as we'll as in 1890.
He makes this false statement to throw
on the democratic party a responsible
ity that cannot possibly belong to it.
Equally false and equally in denial of
former statements is the following
tract from his remarks:
The truth Of the matter is. silver
has fallen in value, like most other met
ais, with the improved methods of pro-
duction. We used to have to pay 800 a
ton for iron rails; now they can be pro-
duced for $50 a ton. Aluminium used to
be worth nearly as much as gold; by the
present methods we can produce it for
from soc to 81 a pound. Nickel has fallen
in value, and silver can be mined cheap
er and reduced at less expense than it
could in the past. The processes of
smelling il with lead ore are such that
the lead sometimes pays the cost of the
reduction, and silver has fallen in value.
1t will, if the Sherman act be repealed,
continue to fall, and eventually will
stand at its market value in the same
way that iron and other non-precious
metals stand.
For years John Sherman has been
telling the people that iron rails were
cheaper on account of the tariff, and
now he comedies the truth that they are
cheaper on account of improved meth
DDS of production" At the same time
he uses this admission of former false
hood to prove a new falsehood. No one
knows better than Mr.. Sherman that
the decline of silver is not due to cheap
ened production, but to it's disuse as
standard of value. And any person who
has just seen silver tumble on account
of the action of the Indian council ought
to know the same thing. Indeed, Mr..
Sherman, with charming inconsistency,
proceeds to say that silver will fall still
further when the Sherman bill is re-
pealed. Mr.. Sherman knows that lead
smelling was a common mode of ex-
tracing silver before 1873. and that free
milling ores were treated almost as prof
itably then as now. From 1873 to 1879
the Big Bonanza produced S1OO,OOO,0OO in
silver at cost of from 80 to 40 cents
per ounce. Today there is no large mine
that can equal those figures except the
Mollie Gibson, and its yield is much less.
Silver is depreciating, or more proper
ly, gold is approaching, for the simple
reason that silver is not a standard of
value, but only a commodity. And no
one knows that any better than John
Sherman.
