THE WORLDS SILVER.
A, Re-Assemblage of the Inter-Na'
tional Monetary Congress Urged.

The special cablegram, from Lon
don received by the State depart
ment, at Washington, yesterday,
announces that the London Cham
Der of Commerce has represented
to the British Government the ur-
gency of re-assembling the interna-
tional monetary conference with
the view of finding some remedy for
the heavy fluctuations in silver
The proposition has been the
theme of universal discussion among
official, legislative and financial cir
cles of the National Capital.
Mr. Cleveland. it can be said,
would readily cooperate with En-
gland in facilitating the settlement
of the silver question through inter
national action.
Secretary Carlisle said that he
preferred not to be interviewed on
the question but he intimated that
the suggestion of a conference
would be very gratifying
Mr.. Voorhees, of the Senate fl
nance committee expressed the
hope that England would take the
initiatory and thus demonstrate he
sincerity in desiring a settlement of
the question.
Mr.. Rayner, one of the anti-sil-
yer leaders of the house, said that
such a step oh the part of England
would meet ready response on the
part of the United States, that 1t
is the hope and policy of this coun.
try to have the silver question set
tied by international action.
Should the conference be held its
result would be of inestimable val
ue to the silver interest, and to the
white metal, as an element of mon
erary power, not alone in the Unit
ed States, but of the world, as
well. With the consequence of
past blunders staring them in the
face, the next conference, would
h ave neither the influence nor ex-
cuse of its predecessors, for a rep
etition of past errors, Indeed,
herein lies the hope of silver and
its friends, for years, at least, to
come and that they will not be
backward in availing themselves OF
the great auxiliary offered, goes
without saying

The merchants and business men
of Broad street have concluded ar
rangements with Mr.. Ed. Vinson
for the sprinkling of that thorough
fare during the summer months.
This is a matter of general interest
to the business men of the city, as
well sprinkled streets prevent loss
of and damage to every kind of
merchandise, from dust, at the
same time conducting to the COM
fort of the merchants and their
trade.

The Brazilian insurgents, having
lost their cause and been deserted
by their leader, will doubtless be
branded as rebels and treated ac-
cordingly. Had they been success
full in their efforts and accomplished
the overthrow of the existing Gov
ernment, they would have been
lauded as patriots and their praises
sounded, far and near, as the de
liverers of their people and pre-
servers of their country. The diff
erence between success and failure
is the greatest of all human differ

prayed that Lewis Darlington might see
again.
Marion went her way home and climbed up
three flights of stairs TO her room. It looked
dark and cold-almost as cold as the streets
outside. where the sleet was falling She lit
the gas stove and made herself cup of tea
Then she looked out at the nurses clothes
which she used TO wear. The aprons wanted
a stitch here and there. This occupied her for
some time. BY 8 O'Clock all was finished.
The sleet was still beating against the
window. Even if she had anywhere to go
she could not have gone. But it is having
nowhere to go that made her feel so lonely.
There was nothing to 90 but sit still and
this, but tonight she could not help thinking
little bitterly of the loveless life she led.

she had her supper-a couple of biscuits and
a glass of milk-and went to bed.

"Mr Carrington What is the matter2

He did not reply. but walked slowly, with
out turning his head, straight across the
room to the window, over which heavy pair
of curtains hung.
''NIr. Darlington" she said again.
But he made no answer. And then she IN

For moment, in her half-awakened state.
she could not think of the right thing to do.
She watched him pull one of the curtains
aside. The light from a gas light in the street
below fell full upon his face And by the
light she saw that his hands were pulling and
tugging at something upon the back OF his
head He was trying to take off the bandage
from his ewes. In another moment, if he sue
ceeded, the glare of the gas lamp would meet
them and extinguish forever the feeble glim-
mer OF sight. Her senses, half dazed with
