another party left for Box creek, where
the diggings are located. Oscar Maycs

and some others. lie reports a regular
stampede TO the placers.
All OF the men employed by the Homo
Land 4 Cattle company and other range
outfits have quit work and went to tho

The result is that the creek is located for
10 or l5 miles, while no actual work has
been done yet ana nll operations have
been confined merely to prospecting.
The original locator. "Cayuse Alex" has
hunted for these diggings for 10 years and
claims that he has found the long los,
mines for which SO many have searched
for years past. This spring he found the
old workings and ducout in which were
some old gum boots, picks, shovcls and
the like, all bearing evidence Of hnvn:

ground is loose, the gravel containing a
mud cement similar To that found IN tho
Black Hills and tho gold is plainly seen in
every pan OF DIR; that has been raised. On
the upper part of the creek there is
plenty of water the year round, but in the
summer time it dries up at some points.
At the lower end are three saloons in full

up store. All are in anticipation of a

road, which is about ~ miles from the
diggings, and there is steam ferry

old miners in the place, but they arc
pleased with the outlook and the rest are
blindly following them.

Country Is Tired and Eyery-

WNSBISGrnS, May a.-ln tie senate to-
day Chandler gave A,s idea Of what the
tariff bill should have been had the demo-
Gratis been true to the Chicago platform.
He characterized the bill in its present
form as long way removed from that
declaration of principles. Chandler read,
with sarcastic comment, lsiter of Cleye-
lands, addressed To President Cbauncey
d. Black Of the league of democratic
clubs, enclosing contribution. Cleve-
land. he said, was willing TO pay for the
dissemination oi his noble and lofty sent!-
mcn,s, and he hoped the democrats OF the
states, taking counsel OF their eminent
leader, would finally put aside their
scramble for protection To local, or per-
haps personal, interests ard make their
bull conform to the democratic platform.
When Chandler took his seat, Quay re-
sumel his speech which he has been de-
lirering IN a serial form during the last
two weeks. At $3.50 o'clock he asked the
clerk TO read portion OF his speech.
Harris, who had been alertly watching,
raised the point of order against the clerk
reading the senator's speech.
Quay said he was somewhat fatigued

him. Ha had no desire to violate the
rules. Harris replied rather sharply that
he was glad to Afford Quay any relief in
his power, hut when he senator from
Pennsylvania insisted upon working q
speech by tho day and by the week, he
would have To insist that he make 1t him
self.
But there are moro ways than one OF
obtaining a breathing spell in the senate.
Mitchell of Oregon blandly suggested tho
absence of quorum. The bells rang.

JUST AS GROVER SAID
They Say Now CleV,land'S Policy Has
Done Much For SILVER.
HE KNEW 1T ALL THE TIME
Meantime the White Metal Is MAX
ing Great Progress Toward Res
toration In the Financial Gen.
ters OF Europe.

WASHINGTON. May 3.--The agitation in
Europe, and notably in England, IN favor
OF the rehabilitation of silver as money
metal, is being observed with great salts
faction by the administration, for It is re-
sarded as strong confirmation of the
correctness of the principle 10 which Pres
ident Cleveland has SO strenuously ad-
lfered thI ough thick and thin, and some
times at the risk of his own popularity
with his party.
The president has contended that true
and stable equality Of gold and silver
could be brought about and maintained
only by an agreement between the great
financial nations of the world. With this
conviction he has been obliged to reso-
lutely oppose II, and TO oppose individual
action by the United States, when the ex-
treme silver men have declared there was,
and could be. no hope of the consumna-
ton desired by international agreement.
The president has replied that firm and
steadfast adhesion to the line of policy in
timated by the repeal of the silver pur-
chasing section of the Sherman act must
inevitably bring about the desired re-
suit.
One of the purposes in view then was to
relieve the United States from the loss
and danger to which it was subjected by
the efforts TO maintain. unaided by any of
the great financial powers, the integrity
as money metal Of q vast silver circula-
,ion. Europe had prospered under old
conditions and was well satisfied to allow
the United States 10 bear the burden. The
presidents theory was that by suspending

AT THE LONDON CONFERENCE.
Disting uished Finaneiers Urge the Need
of RECOMMENDATION.


LONDON, May 3.-At the morning ses-
sion of the International bimetallic con-
ference at the Mansion house. Sir William
II. Houldsworih read a paper on "The
Effects Upon Agriculturalists, Manufac-
turers, Wage Farmers, Merchants. Bank
ers and Investors of the Fall in the Gem
eral Level of Prices"
NJ. Thiery, French delegate, warmly
urged the establishment of an interna-
tional bimetallic league. The proposal
was cordially supported.
A pamphlet upon the silver question,
just published by Sir Joseph Mckenna,
ex-dircctor OF the National Bank of Ire.
land. is creating a sensation in financial
circles and the bimetallic conference. 1t
Is devoted 10 proving that Lord Liverpool's S
legislation in 1sl6was simply fraud, the
object being TO cheat the public out of four
shllings in each pound. troy weight. Of
new coin. Ii is add I'd that Lord Liver
pool made paltry gain, not for himself,
but for the treasury.
Sir Joseph McKenna acquits Lord Liv-
erpool of intentional dishonesty and at.
tributes the fraud to stupidity. The sill.
yerites claim that when this is understood
it will strongly influence public opinion
in favor of the reestablishment Of bimet.
allism.
At the opening of the conference to-day
ex.Lord Mayor Evans, who presided, read
the cable message from Washington,
signed by number of United States sen.
ators, expressing sympathy with the
movement TO promote the restoration OF
silver by International agreement. The
message was received with prolonged
cheering.
Sir David Barbour, cx-secretary TO the
India council, dwelt upon the injury which
India had sustained in consequence Of the
fall in the price OF silver.
The conference adopted the proposal Of
II. X. GrenIell, thnt n deputation of bi.
mctallists wait upon every candidate AT
the general election in order 10 ascertain
the opinions OF such candidates on the
silver question. with q view 10 supporting
or opposing them.
The following cablerram was received
by the lord mayor Of London apropos of
the bimetallic conferences:

OF silver by International agreement, in aid OF
which we understand a meeting Is pelng held
under your lordshlp's presidency. We he''eve
that the free coinage OF both god aud silver by
International agreement with u fixed ratio would
secure 10 mankind the blessing II a sufficient
value Of metallic money and. what Is hardly less
important, secure To The world Of trade immn
nifty from violent exchange fluctuations.
The document was signed by the follow
ing senators who voted for the repeal OF
the Sherman law:
John Sherman. ". II. Allison,
ID. w. Voorhees,. George F. Hoar,
Nelson W. Aldrich. David b. Hill,
Edward Murphy, 4, T. German,
c. II, Plat. Calvin Brlce.
Joseph NJ. Carey, William Frye,
{. X. Davis, $. NJ. Cu!lom,
Henry Cabot Lodge.
Referring 10 the above telegram, Sena-
tor Sherman said: There is a division
OF sentiment among the conservative
people as to the necessity Of retaining
silver as one of the moneys OF the country.
The only question We have discussed In
congress is, whether we can have free
coinage without demonetizug of gold.
Tho general opinion is that this would be
the result of any attempt by the United
States alone to maintain l6 ounces OF
silver with one ounce of gold. While j
have always opposed the free coinage OF
silver, | have desired silver should bs
used to the utmost extent possible as a
money metal, providing only that il would
not place us on a single standard of silver
and drive gold from tho country. Gold

in monetary transactions with
all commercial nations, j there
fore d.heartily in expressing the hope
that the bimetallic congress in London
would recommend some plan by which all
commercial nations would arrange a mode
of coming both metals as money. My
own opinion is that il is better to recog-
nize IL at once rs fact that is apparent
that, on account of the vas; increase of
the production of silver. the ratio should
be based upon the present relative market
value of silver and gold"
Senator Teller said: "As TO the effect
Of the telegram sent to London by Sena-
tor Sherman and the other senator's, who
have not been known as silver men,
think the telegram will encourage hmet-
alism by showing that eveu those who
oppose the free coinage Of silver have
come TO recognize the necessity of a double
standard, and that il will be seen from
this that, while differences of opinion may
exist among Americans as TO how We shall
secure full use of silver as a standard
money, none exist as TO the necessity OF
the use of both gold and silver on terms
OF a mint equality.n
