DeFrance on His Way to Minneapolis to
Answer the Charge of Forgery.

DeFrance on His Way to Minneapolis to
Answer the Charge of Forgery.
ST. PAUL, MINI, Oct. S.-Stonewall
deFrance, for whom Governor Nelson
last evening issued requisition papers
upon the governor OF Michigan, seems
to be one OF the biggest workers OF
forged papers of late years. The Flour
City National bank OF Minneapolis was
one OF his victims, and the st. Paul Ma
tional bank another. 1t was stated this
evening that the Minneapolis bank
was loser by his nimble combinations
to the extent OF $3S,000 The specific
charge on which deFrance is be-
ing brought back here from De-
troit was made by Arthur G. An
derson, cashier ot the st. Paul National
bank, who states that on April 10, 1892,
deFrance, alias Cameron Elliott, ap.
peared at the bank and presented a
draft for $4,000. This purported to be
drawn by the Bank of Commerce Of
indianapolis, payable to the order OF
Cameron Elliott. 1t was drawn on the
United States National Bank OF New
York. The draft was accepted and
credited, and $4,000 was drawn on it
before deFrance disappeared. The
Minneapolis bank has brought civil
suits against deFrance and his wife,
attaching large amount of property
belonging to tho latter in Minneapolis.
LANSING, MICH, Oct. S.-Governor
Rich has honored the requisition from
the Governor OF Minnesota and issued
warran. for the return OF Stonewall
deFrance, the insurance agent, who has
been under arrest in Detroit for the
past week.

Associated Press Worlds Fair Special
CHICAGO, Oct. S.-The advance guard
OF the Chicago Day crowd is in the city.
The streets near the fair grounds were
almost impossible to-day on account OF
the great number OF people who were
constantly arriving.
Chicago is taxed to its fullest extent
to accommodate the big army OF visitors.
Every available room to be had within
distance OF three or four miles has
been taken, and at the down town
hotels the accommodation was fully as
great.
There was large attendance at the
exposition to-day, the exhibits and
many OF the buildings were as usual
closed to visitors, but the crowds found
enjoyment in viewing the beautiful
grounds. The art building and Midway
Plaisance was the Mecca OF those who
passed through the gates. The crowd
was so dense in the art building that 1t
was almost impossible 10 go through it,
and the Midway was tho scene OF as
much discomfort to sightseers.
The programme for tomorrow en-
braces innumerable popular features.
From morning until midnight one at
traction will follow another. Thousands
of school children will participate in
the exercises, the bands will be con-
solidated for the day, and large choruses
will sinp national songs on the plaza,
Military organizations will parade.
and at night grand parade Of floats,
emblematic OF Chicago's advance since
the fire in 1871, wilPbe given. The pro-
gramme will be concludedby grand fire.

SENATOR CAMDEN

Thinks the Silver Question VIII BE Settled
Soon With Some Concessions.
NEW York, Oct. s.-Senator Johnson
n. Camden, of West Virginia, to-day
stated to an Associated Press reporter
in the Fifth Avenue Hotel: ~ think
the silver question will be settled next
week. 1t will, 1 think, be settled sub
stantially and naturally by the repeal OF
the Sherman act. There may be some
concessions and enactments, but I am
not prepared to say atprescnt whatthey
will be-"
II believe the repeal OF the Sherman
act will restore confidence and make
money easy and plenty. Its repeal is
all that is necessary to restore conf
dence in the government and make
money plentiful on a gold basis, What
the people want ls stability in cur
rency, which the repeal OF the Sherman
act will give us.
awe have had very long siege in the
senate over this question, but it is now
drawing to a close. / think Congress
will tako recess when it has been dis
posed OF.

WASHINGTON, D. G., Oct S.-Work on
thc tariff bill by the Democratic mem-
bers Of the ways and means committee
continues on the line on the raising OF
the revenue, the object OF the bill, and
and protection the incident. That, ac-
cording to ono OF the members, is the
direction all proceedings are taking at
present. There seems to have been
considerable talk about enlarging the
free list, as there are many articles now
subject to duty which yield but little
revenue to the government. This points
toward many agricultural products
where competition with American pro-
ducers is impossible to considerable
extent.
1t was supposed that after the state
ments OF the governor Of West Virginia
before the committee that perhaps
Chairman Wilson might be inclined to
oppose a change in the coal schedule,
but it intimated at least that coal is
very likely to 90 on the free list. 1t has
been argued that the West Virginia coal
fieldsare ebenelitted only where tide water
can be reached by rail and canal routes,
and that it is Il small matter when the
entire consumption OF coal is considered,
while it IS claimed that the benefits to
be derived by free coal to the New Eng
land manufacturers is an item Of great
importance. 1t has also been claimed
that the interior coal fields cannot be
affected materially by free coal.
There has been considerable talk over
the iron and steel schedules and there
are limitations that this is the most
difficult problem that has yet confront
ed the committee, and one that is still
far from settlement, Members OF the
committee have talked about reduc-
ton OF duty on pig and scrap iron from
s. 70 to 81 80 or g per ton with the
view that there would be large revenue
derived from importations under such
a reduction. AS to the manufacturers
products OF iron there is yet nothing
that can be called an agreement. That
there will be reductions is beyond doubt.
but the fixing OF the duties is consider
cd one of the most difficult matters be-
lore the committee.
The iron ore schedule is another
stumbling block. The pressure from
the regions along, the great lakes ii for
Il retention OF considerable duty. The
Lake Superior iron miners, which have
large output, have been urging their
members to maintain, if possible, pro-
lection OF iron ore. But this part OF
the bill has not been generally dis
cussed by members OF the committee.
Some members OF the committee say
there will be no difficulty in raising
sufficient revenue, and that they need
not fear making reductions on that
ground, but, on the other hand, it is in
timated that whisky will stand an in
creased tax Of 20 or so cents gallon
very easily; also that the tax of dollar
barrel on beer is very light, and espe-
cially as the brewers are expecting re-
duction on barley and hops. There
are also iutimattous of evening up the
duty on sugar, so that refined sugar
will lave no advantage over raw sugar.
As means OF raising revenue some
members OF the committee say that
hall or quarter OF cent might be
placed OH sugar without any i'll effects.

A DEMOCRATIC CAUCUS.

| DEASShAAlS NASbAS'
A Democratic caucus will be held to-
morrow night to give the Democrats an
opportunity to discuss the proposed
notifications. All Democrats agree
that the laws giving the government
authority to keep peace at the polls by
use OF United States troops and all laws
| relating to the appointment OF federal
supervisors and deputy mRrshals shall
60. The only question is whether the
declaratory statutes which in reality
have no power behind them, and Col.
Oates suggestion as to the jurisdiction
OF United States judges in cases OF yio-
lations of election laws in federal cleo
tions shall be retained. The prevailing
opinion among the Democrats who have
canvassed the situation, is that the
Tucker bill will be agreed upon as 1t
stands with possible modification to
meet the objection Of Col. Oates.
CLRvELAND's VIEWS
Mr.. Cleveland is reported to have said
to Mr.. Tucker, the author Of the bill,
that he hoped every vestige of the law
permitting federal interference would
be wiped out, and this expression is ex-
pected to have its effect in the caucus.
As to the talk OF postponing vote on
the bill until action is had on silver in
the senate, that has died out and it will
probably cut no figure at the caucus.
On Wednesday, after the disposal OF
the elections bill, the bill from the
banking and currency committee to
prevent directors and officials OF ma
tional banks from borrowing money OF
the institutions with which they are
connected except on written permission
OF the board of directors, which was
considered during the morning hour on
Monday last, will again come up accord
ing to the notice given by Mr.. Cox on
Thursday. A general sentiment exists
in favor OF throwing additional safe.
guards about national banks.
THE GEARY BILL.
On Thursday, ii the banking bill is
disposed of, the McCreary substitute for
the Everett bill to amend the Geary ex-
clusion act SO as to extend the time for
registration Of Chinese will come up.
The bill will be bitterly opposed by
some of the Pacific slope members,
especially Mr.. Geary, who do not like
its provisions, and who believe the bill
only temporizes with the situation.
Colonel Oates has also asked for spe-
cial order for the consideration OF the
bankruptcy bill, and the speaker has
expressed his assent.
BANKRUPTCY BILL.
Four days will be given and, under
the rule, Colonel Oates says that there
is no possibility Of the measure being
defeated by Mr.. Kilgore and his col
leagues, who successfully conducted a
ten days fillibuster against it in the
last congress. It is hardly probable,
however, thai the bankruptcy bill will
be reached this week, and next week it
might be temporarily postponed should
the senate this week cut the Gordian
knot and dispose of the silver problem.
In whatever shape the bill may pass the
senate everything else would be laid
aside in the house to act upon it. The
sentiment in the house, by the way, is
very strong that a compromise may be
the result. lit carry with provision
for bond issue it would encounter
most bitter and formidable opposition.
