in the government and it had to be
met. He quoted from the letter of
Senator Jones to his constituency, and
from the speeches of Senators Teller
and Wolcott during the debate in Con-
gress on the repeal of the purchasing
clause of the Sherman act. He said
that the Republican party and Demo-
cratic party were opposed to free silver.
Mr.. Stevens insisted that the senti-

restoration of silver without the con-
sent of England.
He concluded: Il shall now and here
after. cooperate with the political party
which makes silver the predominant

the Orders.

Leavenworth, Kan, Oct. 9.-The vose
court-martial met at Fort Leaven-
worth today, with all the officers of
the court present. The first witness to
appear was Lieutenant Lyons, of Cap
tain Vose's battery. He told about ex-
aiming the schrapnel and of the gem
eral opinion that there was no danger
from it. He said there was no appre-
hension of an explosion and told of
how it might have occurred from
other causes.
Lieutenant 7. E. Horne, of the same
battery, testified in a similar strain
and failed to bring out anything new.
Sergeant ]. W. Graw, of Captain
Vose's battery, testified to having
turned in all but forty condemned
shells after the order was received to
do so.
Captain vose, in testifying in his
own behalf, said he had received the
order to turn the schrapnel in He
understood it to mean that part was
to be returned and part to be retained
until another order was issued, which
he did. He denied any intention of
not obeying orders, and said he carried
out the order as he interpreted it.
Arguments in the case will be made
before the court tomorrow morning.

LOST TO THE WORLD.

Detroit, Mich, Oct. s-There seems
no prospects now that the murderers of
Charles B. Chauvin will ever be pun
ished. No one had any interest in his
death but his nephews, William and
Barnaby Trumbley, and John H Seitz,
the man who purchased the formers
expectancy. The nephews proved per-
feet alibis and Seitz, so far as the public
goes, has never been suspected for a
moment. William now announces that
he will fight the deeds he gave Seitz to
the bitter end, and Barnaby has prom
ised to put UP the money. Seitz de-
clares the deeds are valuable, and if
the boys want the lawyers to have all
the money, all right; let them fight.

again last night, and it went with the
same life and spirit as it did the night
before There seems TO be diversity
of opinion as to whether Mrs. Selma
Fetter Royle is a brilliant actress or
not, and the critic has been at his wits
end to find the exact consensus of
judgment on this point. The outcome
of ballot goes to show that she is,
as we said all the company was, good
but not great. She is handsome, both
in face and figure, and is softly pa
thetic in many passages, but in the
main simply plays well. She gives no
promise of ever making a great name
for herself, but will always be a use
full and capable member of any COM
pany to which she belongs.
Friends will be presented for the
last time this evening.
This afternoon at $3.50 o'clock Mr.
