paper bills by the government and dis
cussed it fully, saying that limited
amount of such paper might be main
tanned at par, but not a sufficient
quantity of it to constitute a national
currency; that the credit of the govern
ment was good, but not good enough
for this, for that credit had been ere
ated by paying, and not simply by
ability to pay; that such paper was
difficult to put in circulation and in
elastic in nature, and that the whole
scheme was at war with the soundest
principles of finance and discredited by
the best human experience.
The speaker then turned his attention
to the state bank issue and declared
that the system had been tried before
the war and had miserably failed; that
broken banks, worthless and depre-
ciated paper, counterfeit money, bro
kerage and high rates of exchange
had been its progeny; that while the
progress of the people and the country
would doubtless improve it in many
respects if revived now. yet it would
still be a dangerous and disastrous
system; that it would be the substftu-
ton of weak and diffused method for
a strong method of central control,
which had secured sound and uni
form currency, and that no person
would contend for such a change ex-
cept the man who both ignored expert
ence and insisted that forty-four op-
portunities for error were less likely to
result in disaster than one. Recent
statistics were quoted to show the SUI
periority of the national banks and the
arguments for and against the state
bank system were examined in detail.
Mr. johnson concluded with a dis
Of he ho,
praising it as a system of banks of dis
count and deposit and for the sound
ness and uniformity of its circulating
notes. and admitting that it had some
defects which could however, be cured
by amendment. He declared himself
opposed to issuing government bonds
simply as basis for banking, on ac-
count of the interest charges which
they imposed upon the people, and sug-
gested that the securing of national
bank notes by deposit of approved
state and municipal bonds, allowing
notes to be issued to the par value of
such bonds, and decreasing the present
tax on circulation, which would make
national system superior to the best
state bank that could be devised. The
speaker, however, preferred the substi-
tuition of safety fund in place of
bonds to secure circulation, and argued
that this plan, along with other minor
amendments to the present law, would
insure a sound, uniform and elastic
currency. Statistics were quoted in
support of this position, and the plan
was elaborated fully. Mr.. johnson
contended that it would, if adopted,
do away with the demand for a gov
eminent issue of irredeemable paper
and state bank issues and thoroughly
reconcile the people to the national
banking system.

Rio De Janeiro. May 29.-Active pre-
parations are being made here for the
occasion of the Fourth of July. The
great national fete of the United States
will be celebrated here in manner
fitted to demonstrate to the United
States the gratitude of the people of
Brazil for the support received from
the government of the great American
republic during the recent civil war.
The public demonstration will consist
of a military and naval review and the
laying of the corner stone of monu-
ment. which will be surmounted by a
statute of President James Monroe, the
author of the Monroe doctrine.
President Cleveland has been re-
quested to send a United States squad
ron to Rio Janeiro to take part in the
naval review and special medals will
be presented to President Cleveland
and President Peixoto in commemora-
ton of the triumph of the established
government over the revolutionists.

No Railway Communication.

Seattle, Wash, May 29.-The Puget
Sound region is almost cut off from
communication with the east. The Can
adam Pacific, Northern Pacific, Great
Northern and Union Pacific roads are
all blockaded on account Of the floods.
On the first-named road, the waters of
the Fraser river are higher than have
been known for twenty years, and a
vast expanse of territory is under wa
ter, much damage having been done to
farmers and to the property of the
railroad. The bridge across the Coluna-
bia river at Revelstroke has been wash
ed away.
The Great Northern main line will
not be in running order for several days
but the Skagit river is falling rapidly
and the washouts on the coast lines
will be repaired in a day or two.
No trains arrived today from the east
over the Northern Pacific, but pass
enger train left this evening in expecta-
ton that by the time it reaches the
scene of the trouble, the break will
have been repaired. In the Immediate
vicinity of the city. the high waters are
rapidly receding, and no further dam
age is expected.

Cripple Creek, May 29.-The deputies
and strikers are still keeping at safe
distance from each other.
Both sides are exerting every effort
to increase their numbers, the strikers
using, in some instances, loaded Win
chesters as arguments.
The strikers become holder and more
insolent every day.
All the smaller towns are completely
subjected and some demonstration has
been made at Cripple Creek. There is
nothing manly in the attitude of the
strikers. Vastly out-numbering the
male portion of the population, and be-
ing heavily armed, they have confis-
Gated nearly all the firearms owned
by individuals.
Conscious alike of their own strength,
and of the weakness of the inhabi-
tants. they conduct themselves in an
overbearing manner and exact conduct
on the part of the inhabitants that is
little short of abject servitude. Today
a party entered Mound City and at the
point of Winchesters forced two union
men who believe in the union, but do
not believe in carrying arms and using
them in violation of law, together with
a non-union man, TO go to Bul Hill.
The general impression here is that
this question can be settled only by a
terrible conflict. and the people
anxiously await the end, whatever it
may be.
To the credit of the strikers it can
be said that in some of the camps they
have closed every saloon and placed
guards over them.
A. D. Gortner, a prominent Populist,
was driven out of camp today and
ordered not to return on penalty of
death.
The strikers now expect to be at
tackled from three different points and
ms massed their forces at Bull HILL
Two principal approaches have been
undermined and large quantities Of
dynamite placed, so that, by means Of
electricity, the mines can be exploded
from the fort.

alton to Be ReOrganized.
Chicago, May 29.-Steps were taken,
today, looking toward the reorganiza-
ton of the Transcontinental Passen-
ger association.
General Passenger Agent Sebastian,
of the Rock Island, who some time ago
was appointed chairman of the COM
mittee looking toward this reorganiza-
ton, has issued a call for a meeting
of all transcontinental and TRANSMITS
souri, lines TO be held in Chicago on
June ). Strong hopes are felt that the
meeting can accomplish something
definite now that the emigrant ques-
ton is out of the way for a. time, at
least.
A meeting of the advisory committee
of the emigrant clearing house was
held today to ratify the action taken
in the regular meeting yesterday
This was quickly done, and it was
decided that Chairman Caldwell should
go to New York and make final ar
engagements with Peter O'DonneH, the
big emigrant agent, who was dis
charged from all connection with the
association some time ago.
