Of a very prevalent belief that the bills
signature would have no immediate dis
Rstrous influence.
Were sudden and very large withdraw
ais Of invested foreign capital to come on
the market now with sterling rates at the
shipping point, it is quite conceivable
that the treasury gold Withdrawals would
be resumed. Foreign investment on our
securities timidly begun this week, would
almost surely cease, and there would
therefore be no check to further rise in
sterling.
And if, through the combination Of
such causes, heavy depletion OF the gov
ernment gold balance were eventually
to follow, how is the gold reserve to be
restored.
The February loan was flosted for this
purpose, the banks did neither more nor
less than their bounden duty in SUBJ
scribing to it. But the question Of duty
after the government had publicly
broken faith on the coinage Of the seig-
niorsge might be very greatly altered.

Sugar Trust Still Rules.

WASHINGTON, March 19.-The demo-
cratic members of the senate committee
on finance have completed their work on
the tariff bill and will submit changes
which they have made from the bill as
drafted by the subcommittee at q meet
ing Of the full committee, to be held this
afternoon.
The principal changes which they have
made in the bill is in the sugar schedule,
and that has been modified so as TO take
into account the color, as we'll ss the po-
larizatiOn Of sugar. The change made
will add one-eighth Of cent per pound
on the color test, so Rs to insure to the
rehner this much protection.
This is in accordance with the original
intention Of the committee, but it has
been claimed that the bill as at first re-
ported to the full committee would dis
criminste against the rsfners.
1t is understood that the bill will be
amended 30 Rs to make positive dsclars-
tion for the sbrogstion Of tho reciprocity
treaties made under the Mckinley act.
This will be done simply to satisfy the
sugar men. 1t is also probable that the
clause in the bill RbrOgating the Hs-
waiisn treaty will be struck out.
This together With the restoration with
the present law regarding the tax on
domestic cigars, will be the principal
changes made. The lead ore duty and
whisky tax as we'll as the duty placed
upon coal and iron ore, will remain as
placed in the bill by the democratic
members.
The amendment inserted by the mem-
bers Of the committee providing for the
repeal Of the entire Mckinley act will
be modified to either specify what por-
tions Of that act shall remain in force, or
to repeal the parts in conflict with the
pending act.

Calling Hard Names.

CHICAGO, March I'D. Fl. Burnham,
chief Of construction Of the Worlds fair,
today plumply referred to Secretary
Carlisle Of the United States treasury as
a ''cross-roRd politician" and continuing
said: at is most unfortunate for the
country that at this juncture, when the
Columbian exposition had opened q
view Of great progress ia American
science, art and architecture he should
have under his direction ell the Rrchi-
tectural work OF the government.
This country is the greatest client Of
architecture known in history, unless
Rome in the height of her wealth, power
and glory be executed, and the fact that
those now in the control of the depart
ment OF architecture at Washington
have little or no knowledge OF the pro-
fession is 8 national misfortune.
That Secretary Carlisle should be the
responsible head Of all the architectural
work Of the government is positively
cSlamitous. Mr.. Csrlisle's brief note to
me as president Of the American insti-
tute Of architects, which was printed in
tO-dSys papers is misleading and unjust,
because the letter / sent to him called
for his last communication, was not
published with it. In that letter there
was a simple statement Of facts, with
nothing insulting or ungentlemanly.

fair state from the grip Of the socialists
in theory, and anarchists in practice who,
having first dsluded an honest following,
aided by q party whose alleged princi-
pies are opposite to theirs, have made
Kansas ridiculous in the eyes of the
world.
81 have hoped that there would be no
candidates. for governor this year. I
have hoped that the next state conven-
tion would be composed Of the sblest,
cleanest, and most unselfsh republicans
in the state, filed and thrilled with the
one supreme desire to nominate the
strongest possible ticket and to adopt
the best possible platform. Let it be q
convention Of republicans, by republi-
cans, and for republiesnism, instead Of
convention Of candidates, by candidates,
and for candidates. Let it be something
more than q ratification meeting to en-
dorse the work OF lot of manipulstors
with axes to grind and spoils to get. Is
not this q consummstion devoutly to be
Wished?' l hsYe written thus frankly,
and at this length, because 1 am tremen-
dously in earnest in wishing the success
Of the party which in state and nation
has alone proven its ability to manage
public affairs wisely and we'll.
"These views will be criticised. It will
be thought too ethereal and too senti-
mental for Kansas politics. I believe in
my heart, however, that it voices the
sentiments OF the great overwhelming
mass Of men who do the voting and who
hold patriotism above position or self.
"If the party in its aggregate wisdom
should call me to the front, untram-
meled by pledges or promises, would
do what any other loyal citizen would
do-try to bear the banner unsullied to
the victory which I am confident awaits

TERRE HAUTE, IND, March 14.-Eu-

Railway union, in a speech at meeting
Of Populists to-day, announced that he
would vote the tickets Of that party this
year, and would urge lsboring men to do
the same as the only means Of electing
men who would be true friends Of labor.
He had always been a democrat. He
SAID there was no longer any material
difference between the democrats and
republicans on the tariff or the finances.

During the republican committee meet
ing last week he announced his csndi-
dacy for the governorship in the follow
ing letter to Arthur Ospper:
"DEAR SIR:-For many months l have
been the recipient almost daily Of letters
SIMILAR to yours from all parts Of Kansas,
urging me to become q candidate for
governor. These letters have greatly in
creased in comparative numbers during
the past few weeks, necessitstinR an
enormous amount Of private letter writ
ing in reply. The press Of the state has
also manifested much interest in the
matter, and it therefore seems not inn
proper for me to ask the indulgence Of
the public in order that may make plain
my position. l intend to be entirely
frank ss to matters personal to myself
and | shall speak my mind with perfect
freedom concerning some matters Of
vastly superior importance to the inter-
ests Of any man.
"The Office Of governor is an exalted
position. Its duties are grave and it's
responsibilities are great. 1t is a sacred
trust which men should hesitate to seek,
and which should be conferred upon
them only after thorough and thought
full consideration of their character and
qualifications. For one to voluntarily
assume that he pre-eminently above
others, measures up to the requirements
OF this exalted Office, is repugnsnt to my
nature, and to my idea of that modesty
which 80 sdorns our humanity, and
which so becomes the occupant of a
great Office of this kind. 1t ought to be
assumed that our party would never
make the mistake of its rival in nomi-
mating an unknown mar for governor.
1t should not, therefore, be necessary for
any man to seek" for the nomination.
The custom which compels men to do
this, or abandon the honorable aspirs-
tion, is in my judgment a pernioious
one. 1t puts premium upon prssump-
tion and ban upon modesty. It gives
an undue advantage to wealth, and
makes it's absence bar to preferment.
With no reflection upon any Of the ex-
cellent and eminent gentlemen who
have reluctantly yielded to this perni-
cious practice in the past, or who may
do 80 in the future, here and now enter
my solemn and emphatic protest against
q custom whiok not only lowers the
high and good standard here get up, but
which tends to ring rule, bosSism and to
party sntsgonism and to defeat. / am
sick OF the idea that a man must throw
modesty to the winds, and squRnder
time and money and character in a wild
scramble for a position Of such dignity
as this. am tired Of seeing this great
Office kicked like a foot ball over the
prsiries Of Kansas. l am disgusted with
the dispensing Of its perquisites in ad-
vance and as a means sot their attain
ment. From all these.things our party
has suffered sorslY in the past. We
must take higher ground il we would
regain and retain the confidence of the

WHIRLED TO HIS DEATH.
Jacob Meyerhofer Killed by Being
Caught in Machinery.
The Engineer of Mohr tE Yoerk's Pack
ing-HouSe Found Lying Man
gled on the Floor.

a terrible accident happened yesterday
afternoon in the engine-room of Mohr d
Yoerk's packing house, which resulted
in the death of the day engineer, Jacob
Nothing is definitely known of how the
accident occurred, as the unfortunate
man was alone in the engjne-room. 1t is
however, that he went UP on
platform about twelve feet from the floor
to oil the shaft, and that his clothes were
caught in pulley. He wore jumper,
of his overalls, and, as he did not button
it, the front was generally Tapping around
loosely, and either the sleeve or some
other portion probably caught in the ma
chinery and wound him around the shaft.
1t is not known just when the accident
happened, but few minutes before 5
o'clock some of the men employed in the
packing-rOom passed through the engine
room and were attracted by groans. They
found him lying insensible on the cement
floor, where he had fallen from the shaft,
a distance of about sixteen feet. Almost
all his clothes were stripped from his
body, leaving him with nothing but his
the boiler and the fire was out, showing
that he must have lain there some time.
He was Immediately removed to the
CLAYTON Sanitarium, where his wounds
were examined. 1t was found that both
arms were badly broken, one eye was
out and his skull badly cut and fractured,
and his jaws and chin crushed. Every
thing was done for him that could be, but
he died about o'clock.
Meyerhofer was a single man, about 45
years old and had laid up quite snug
sum of money in the bank. So far as is
known he has no relatives on this coast
He lived alone in little shanty in the
alley between Fifteenth and Sixteenth, ]
and X streets, where he kept number of
ducks and chickens.
Mr.. Yoerk was very much affected by
the accident as Meyerhofer was favorite
with him, as well as with his fellow
workmen, and it is only a short time
since somewhat similar accident hap
pened to boy in the packing-room
above where yesterdays accident hap

BROWNS BATTERY.
Lopue's Testimony Not Sufficient t.

Loeue's Testimony Not Sufficient to
Convict Him.
The case of James Brown, charged by
Henry Logue with battery, was heard in
the Police Court yesterday.
Logue testified that be went into
Browns place, and the latter told him to
sit down. He said he did not want to,
and Brown told him to take walk. He
walked down the aisle and back, and
Brown asked him to sit down again.
He said he would go out and Brown
called him a a=7, and put him out.
Two or three other persons struck him.
He came back to get the amber mouth
piece OF his pipe, and Brown struck him
in the mouth, knocking out his front
teeth and cutting his lip.
Brown testified that when he asked
Logue to sit down or go out he refused to
do either He took hold of him and put
him out, but did not strike him. Logue
came back and said he wanted his pipe,
and he Brown pushed him out, but did
not strike him.
Henry Miller testified that he was a
barkeeper and had been in town about
two weeks, but had not been employed
anywhere in this city. He told the same
story that Brown did. He saw someone
in the crowd strike Logue. There were
several other people standing up at the
time.
The court held that under the evidence,
while it was clear that somebody had
struck Logue and knocked his teeth out,
he could not find Brown guilty and dis
charged him.

MORE IMPROVEMENTS.

The New Sheet, Steel and Iron Pipe
Factory Enlarged.
A few weeks ago announcement was
made that Schaw, Ingram. hatcher Il Co.,
hardware merchants of this city, had
erected a building, ~ by 100 feet, for the
manufacturing of sheet steel and iron
pipe, for mining, water works, power
and irrigating purposes. Since then this
firm has completed another building, 81
by 20 feet, which is used as dipping
house. After the pipe is manufactured it is
sent to the dipping house. where it is
submerged in hot bath of solution of
double refined asphaltum and maltha,
which renders the pipe almost indestruct
ible. The pipe is then placed on a plat
form Of by "A ieet alongside the railroad
track, where it is loaded on the cars. This
is done without chatting or abrasion of
the coating,s which always occurs when
newly dipped pipe is hauled on wagons
to the railroad. This firm being equipped
with the most modern factory and appli
ances, are manufacturing the best pipe
on the coast; not only the quality of ma
terial used, but the general workmanship
and finish is uneXcelled.
