Senator Chandler, of New Hampshire,
will, at an early day. it is said, introduce
in the Senate resolution directing the
President to invite all the countries of the
world to participate in monetary con-
ference, looking to the reconciliation of
silver. The new feature of the Chandler
idea is that the conference shall not be
restricted to the gold standard countries
of Europe, but shall include the South
American and oriental silver standard
countries. The resolution will go on to de-
clare 1t TO be the purpose of the United
States, in case an agreement cannot be
reached by the conference, to adopt a
single standard for money, and that
standard not gold, but silver. The sena-
tor probably does not expect any such
resolution TO be adopted, but hopes to
catch the silverites. with the chaff he Of
fers them. 1t is quite likely that some
arrangement looking to a conference will
be made by congress, but it is extremely
unlikely that any declaration in favor of a
silver single standard will accompany the
arrangements.

Mr.. w. 7. Stead, who has done time in
an English prison for saying shocking
things in his newspaper, is now engaged
in administering about one shock a week
to Chicago. His latest, delivered at a
joint meeting of women's clubs in that
city few nights ago, was in this form
who were the most disreputable women
IN ChicagoP" he inquired "They were
those who had been lowered by society
ana providence with all the gifts and all
the opportunities and who lived entirely
selt-indulgent These women who had
great opportunities only to neglect them
were more disreputable in the eyes of
God and man than the most abandoned
women Of the streets" This is as near
the language as the newspaper reporting
tne meeting dared to print, stating that
what MIR. Stead actually said was much
stronger. And the Chicago society folks
present looked properly Mortified, then
appiauded him when he had finished.

"Old Glory" meaning the American

The flag foated from the halliards of the
American schooner Grace Andrews at
Natal until it was hauled down by an
emissary of Peixoto's and the captain cast
into dungeon cell. The whole story
told by the captain at Philadelphia on
Wednesday was one of unprovoked out
rage. But the republican press of this
country will find little trouble in explain
ing that the yankee skipper got only what
he deserved. For is not Peixoto a IRE

One of the queer official customs that
hitherto obtained in Colorado was for
the governor TO sign in blank two pardons
and send them to the state prison, and
permit the warden to fill in the names of
two prisoners worthy of clemency, one of
whom was discharged on Christmas and
the other on New Years. This year Gov.
Waite refused to permit the warden to
exercise any discretion in the matter, but
himself picked out the prisoners to be
favored. The governor did not propose
70 surrender one of his prerogatiYes.
