THE SEIGNlORAGE.

"What is the seigniorage?" is a
question often heard since Con-
gress has passed the seigniorage
bill, which is still in the hands Of
the President. Recently the New
York Recorder offered a reward of
S25 for the best definition, and of
the many answers received the fol-
lowing was published as the most
satisfactory:
Seigniorage consists of the difference
between the cost Of an amount of bullion
and the face value OF the coins mlnted
from it. BY the Sherman act the gov
ernment was compelled TO purchase
4,5O0, 600 ounces Of silver per month at
the market price. As the price Of silver
fuctuated, so the amount of Treasury
notes issued in payment of this bullion
sometimes increased sometimes dlmin-
ished, The downward tendency having
been greater in the last few years, there
were issued, from the time OF tie pas.

an amount of bullion which should actu.

In his letter Mr.. Roosevelt de-
clares that true Americanism is as
absolutely alien to Knownothing-

form of foreignism on the other.
Mr.. Roosevelt says that every foreign
er coming to America should leave old
country. politics behind him and be-
come an American pure and simple.
He adds that if the foreign-born citizen
who comes over here, honestly and in
good faith fills the duties of American
citizenship and acts as an American
pure and simple, it is most emphatical-
ly an outrage to discriminate against
him in any way because of his birth

WHITE, OF LOUISIANA, NAMED
The President Goes Outside of New York
for a Supreme Bench Nominee.

~
for a Supreme Bench Nominee.
WASHINGTON, d. c., Feb. 19.-Presi-
dent Cleveland has squared that account
with Senator Hill. He paid off the
score by going outside the state of New
York for his third candidate for the
United States supreme bench, and to-
day nominated United States Senator
y. u. White, of Louisiana, to succeed
Associate Justice Blatchford. He tried
two New York men-Hornblower
and Peckham-but without consulting
David B. Hill. Hill proposed to
dictate the New York appointments
and defeated the nominees. President
Cleveland was apparently determined
that Hill should not name the successor
to Justice Blatchford, and he therefore
passed New York in making the third
nomination for the place. If Mr.. White
is confirmed he will undoubtedly
make satisfactory associate Justice.
In Louisiana and the South
generally he is considered a good
lawyer and an excellent Judge. He
is a native of Louisiana, having been
born in Lafourche Parish fortv-eight
years ago last November. His father
was the late E. d. White, five times
member of Congress and once governor
of Louisiana. Senator White was edu-
Gated at st. Mary's College, Emmetsburg.
Md, and in the Jesuit College in New
Orleans. At the breaking out of the war
of secession he entered the confederate
army and served to the close of the
war. He studied law and was admitted
to the bar, was elected to the state SEN
ate in 1S74-7S, was judge Of the Louisi-
ana supreme court in 1S78-8O and was
elected to the United States Senate on
May 30, 1883, for the term beginning
March 4, 1889.
Immediately after the nomination
was received the Senate went into ex-
ecutive session. The nomination was
confirmed. The nomination was com
plete surprise to Senator Hill and the
Republicans, but no fight was made
against confirmation.

SENTENCED TO SING SING.

BROOKLYN, N. Y, Feb. 19.-John G.
McKane will probably resign his
position as superintendent of the
Grayesend Sunday school, as his time
will be occupied in another direction fol
some time to come. He was sentenced
to-day to six years at hard labor in Sing
Sing prison.
BY 1918 the corridors were rendered
almost impossible as the crowds
swarmed on the stairWays and Railways
and out into the street At 10:06 Judge
Bartlett took his seat on the Bench, E.
e. James then stood up and said
Your honor, | appear for the defend
ant, John Y. McKane. [ move for a
new trial under section 465 code of
criminal procedure, subdivisions 5
and 6.
Judge Bartlett denied the motion.
Mr.. James then asked for an arrest of
Judgment on the grounds that the facts
as stated In the Indictment do not con-
stitute crime; this was also denied.
Then Mr.. James asked the court to take
into consideration that the defendant
had never been convicted of any felony
and that his previous good character be
taken into consideration.
Judge Bartlett said he did not see
any circumstances which would war
rant such discretion. Mr.. James then
asked for stay of execution of judg
ment for twenty days to enable the de-
fendant to move on a notice for GER
titicate of reasonable doubt. Mr.. Shep-
pard said that it would be better for de-
PENDANTS counsel to wait until sentence
be pronounced before making this APP
plication. Mr.. Sheppard moved for
sentence to be passed.
Mchane, when asked what he had to
say, said: Il do not know that [ can say
anything but what [ said on the stand
during this trial. / have never done
anything wrong to anyone as far as /
know. | never did anything directly or
indirectly wrong with regard TO the cleo
ton, nor did [ ever counsel anyone else
to do anything wrong. | again say that
am not guilty of any otfense against
the law
Judge Bartlett then proceeded to pass
sentence, and said: Il do not feel in
clined to disregard the recommends
ton to mercy made by the jury. The
crime which the defendant committed
was a serious one. That great crime
seems to be one that demands an en-
phatic sentence. The penalty should

nation, while not SO severe as to excite

that the defendant be imprisoned in
Sing Sing state prison for six years"
When the sentence was pronounced
the one who seemed to be the least af-
fected was the "Chief'' himself. The
words had scarcely passed from the
judges lips when McKane turned
round and resumed his seat beside
his lawyers. A subdued murmur
of establishment escaped from the
spectators who thronged the court
room, but it was quickly suppressed by
Judge Bartlett, who raped vigorously
with his gavel and ordered the police to
clear the court.

BRAUER TO BE DEPUTY.
Pratt's Appointment as Marshal Made
with that Understanding.

WlLn JIldG Understanding.
OSHKOSH, Wis, Feb. LIT was
learned here to-day that the appoint
ment of George W. Pratt, of this city,
to the United States marshalship for
the Eastern Wisconsin District was
made with the understanding that he
appoint Henry A. Brauer, of Shawano,
as his deputy. When the deal was first
Matched it was intended to appoint
Judge Bailey, OF Oconto, mar
shall and make Henry Brauer
his deputy. This did not please
the Pratt faction and they determined
to make it a bitter three-cornered
fight, The appointment of Judge
Bailey to the postmastership at Oconto,
however, made it easy sailing for Pratt,
but it was not until it was understood
that Brauer be made deputy that the
deal went through. Mr.. Brauer was
sheriff of Shawano County for two years
and was sent to the legislature last year
from that district. He was one of the
strongest supporters John L. Mitchell
had in his famous fight for United States
senator. Mr.. Brauer has three broth
ers IN this city, and they all hold official

PtTrsBURG, Pa, Feb. ia special
meeting of delegates from Anal
gamated lodges of the First District,
comprising all the mills along the Mo-
nongahela River, is being held
this afternoon to decide whether
by united efforts the district
can be saved. Five years ago there was
not non-union mill in the district, and
now it is said there is not a single
straight .Amalgamated mill here. Of
the 10000 or more workers not one
tenth are in the organization, and it is
feared that in short time
the entire district will go to
pieces The present crisis has
been precipitated by the demands
OF manufacturers for reductions in pud
dlers' wages to 81 ton. Propositions
will be made to either let the organiza-
ton lapse in Pittsburg and await more
auspicious times for reorganization or
call for general convention to decide
what can be done
