ances decreed that reason and
common sense. in the admins
tration of our public affairs,
should go out on a, four years
vacation. The age of absurdities
is now upon us and man must
study the philosophy Of human
inconsistency, SO to speak, in
order to get an idea of what may
happen within the next four
years. The silver fanatic insists
that there has been no prosperity
and can be none until the white
metal has been restored by
free coinage. 1t is astonishing
how loudly the notion is shouted
into the ears Of President Cleve-
land just now by many Of those
who voted for him. II is nothing
but treachery to his party and
country, in their opinion, for him
to redeem Treasury notes in gold.
When a Democratic Congress
comes, they say, he and his
Secretary of the Treasury will
learn a lesson"

Cost Of Columbus' ExpedItlon.

The cost of discovering America by
Columbus, says Prof. Ruge, in the
Globus, was 1,14O,OOO maravedis, or
about s1,s96 of our money. The money
of Queen Isabella, of course, had
higher purchasing power than the dol

$3.50, and the two captains each s192 per

of spirited discussion among Its menu
bers to-day of the bill introduced at the
beginning of the session by Dolph, provid-

wide interest, one without q previous
counterpart In the history OF the world,
took place here to-day. II was the as
sembling of parliament religious, q
gathering of the representatives of all the
great beliefs of the earth, with tho object
of showing how important are the things
on which all agreed, how comparatively
unimportant are the differences i'm crccds.
The result of the parliament is ex-
pected to emphasize what is
fundamental, throw into the background
differences that are merely accidental and
superficial.
Since the series of worlds congresses
began with the opening of the worlds fair,
no such immense crowd has gathered at
tho Memorial Art institute as assembled
this morning. Long before the hour for
the exercises to begin, inRress was nbso-
lMtely impossible. Not merely since the
beginning of the worlds fair, but never
since tho foundation of the world, has
such cosmopolitan assemblage OF tho
exponents of tho worlds religions
taken place. The Occident, in Sc
vercly plain garments, touched e.
bows, not only on tho platform
but in the great audience with tho bril-
liantly costumcd Orient. in picturesque
comingling. The followers of Jehova,
Christ, Confucius, Buddha, Mohammed.

Ii was an inspiring spectacle when the

the scene when the whole vast audience

SPOKANE, Sept. 1.-THE grandest pyro-
technic display ever seen In spokane was
occasioncd by the burning Of the exposi-
tion building last night. Not since the
great fire of 1889 has such q conhagration
been Witnessed here. In 10 minutes after
the fire was discovered, the flames burst
through tho immense dome, lighting up
the entiro city and country for miles
around. The fire was seen q distance of
80 miles. The fire department was unable
to do anything moro than TO protect tho
surrounding buildings. The exposition
building was q wooden structure, three
stories high and go by 100 feet in dimen-
sion. II was built in 1890 and cost about
so, 900. Only one exposition was held In
the building, but numerous public gather
ings have been held there. The building
was taken or tho hands of the exposition
company by lien creditors, who foreclosed
liens aggrcgating $4,000 and bought the
building in through A. NJ. Cannon as
trustee. The larger lien creditors had
their interest insured. The total amount
of insurance aggregated about $4,000.
Kirkendall & Co., and Porter Bros, rail-
road contractors, had grading outfits
worth 5000 stored in the building, but
wero fully insured. The fire undoubtedly
was inccndiary.

WAsHIsoroS, Sept. li.-For the present
at lenst tho trouble growing out Of tho
seizure OF 1900 sheep by Mexican customs
officials on what is claimed to bo Texan
soil, has been brought TO an end. After
Secretary Gresham and the president had
several conferences over the matter, an
agreement was reached by which 1t was
decided TO authorize Major Kcyes TO sur
render the Mexican officials. This will
leave the sheep in possession Of the
owners. The question Of the definite loca.
tion of the boundary line will, 1t is ex-
pected, be referred to mixed commission
which has had similar problems to unravci
heretofore.

INSTRUCTIONS TO MARSHALS
China. Il Is Understood. Entered
Strong Protest-The state De-
partment viii Wait to Soc
What Congress VIII Do.

WASHINGTON, Sept. li.-Attorney Gen.
eral Olney has instructed United States
marshals to take no further steps for the
enforcement Of the Goary law pending
specific instructions to the contrary from
Washington. These instructions do not
apply, however, to Chinese already in
progress Of deportation by duo process of
Law. ]. Hubiey Ashton of the counsel Tor
the Chinese, applied to the treasury de-
partment to-day for a stay OF proceeding 8
in the case OF the Chinese recently ordered
back 10 China by the district court at Los
Angeles. He was referred to the depart
mcnt of Justice and there informed the
department he would not interfere IN
cases already passed upon by tho United
States courts.
The new Chinese minister, Jang Yu,
was at the state department to-day and II
10 understood he was informed by Secre-
tary Gresham of the intention of the adj
ministration TO suspend further action
under tho exclusion act pending tho
action of congress on the bill introduced
by Representative Everett. extending to
September I, 1894. tho time in which the
Chinese may register. The change in tho
attitude of the treasury department,
which last week was contemplating in
structions for tho enforcement OF the
Gesry law, is, It is believed, due to the
strong protests of tho Chinese govern
mept, coupled with an iniimatiun that in
the event of such action that government
would no longer assume the responsibility
for the future safety OF Americans in
Chinese territory.
