ENGLAND AND SILVER.

LONDON, June 30.-The silver question was brought up in the house of lords by Earl I.evaen's attack upon the policy of closing the Indian hints. Lord Lands down, viceroy for India from 1888 to 1893, defended this policy. The Times comments thus: Whether the measure originally were right or wrong, it would certainly be mistake to reopen tho hints until the present policy shall have been fully tried.

CARLTON AS A CANDIDATE
The Athenian Says He Is In the
Hands Of His Friends.

BE VIII Be in the Race II Several
Counties In His District Hold Early
Primaries, as it is Reported They
VIII, and Instruct for Him He
Talks About His Attitude Toward
the Other Candidates.
Atlanta, Ga, April 9s.-Capt H. II.
Carlton, of Athens, who has been in At
lanta since last Wednesday, having de-
livered the memorial day grafton, left for
home this afternoon.
Before departing Capt. Carlton gave
the MORNING NEWS an interesting inter-
view on the subject Of his probable candi-
dacy for the gubernatorial nomination.
The gist OF this interview is that Capt.
Carlton is in 1.-The hands of his friends"
that is to say he will become an active
candidate If his friends crystallize their
good will into some tangible form. For
instance, II several counties in his
district should hold early primaries,
as it is reported they will do,
and instruct their delegates for him, he
would then addres his letter to the pub
lie.
I'll voluntarily retired from political
life" said Capt. Carlton, "some time
ago. might have been in congress
yet, in fact | might say ! could have
been, but four years gave me as much
honor as there is In tho position, and I
retired to attend 10 private affairs. In
view of this / do not care to re-enter
politics again but it seems that it is a
choice of making the race for congress
again or going into the gubernatorial con-
test
CAN'T ANNOUNCE HIMSELF.
"NIy friends are very urgent; they
have been for some time past but / can
not afford to announce myself candidate.
In the first place. it would not be becom-
ing In me to do so, having retired from
politics, and then again IL would not be
good policy to do 50. But in the event
that a respectable following, one, two,
three or half dozen counties, held early
primaries, as they now seem disposed TO
do, and call upon me TO do so, l could
then, with all propriety, ad-
Such support would, / am
egotistical enough 10 say, put me in the
race on equal terms with the other gem
tlemen. Personally Gen. Evans and [
are very friendly. Mr. Atkinson, L know
very slightly, but | could not come out
and antagonize either or both Of them.
Another thing that makes the situation
tOlupAlN0bCu lb hAdb Lub tlLIy VI u bulIu
candidate might make dead lock in the
convention, and thereby result in the
nomination Of dark horse, who might
not be as acceptable as any one OF
the avowed candidates. AS long as
there are but two in the race
IL is likely that one or the other win 20 10
the convention with majority. If tho
majority rule is adopted that settles the
question. But third man would COM
plicate matters Besides IL would be
folly for me to go into a contest that
might be the means Of electing some un-
known man"
Capt. Carlton said the entry of third
cand date might be to the interest of
either one of the present candidates, and
he might be charged with being in
scheme To deadlock the convention, but
the voluntary enthusiasm of his friends,
he was satisfied, would effectually con.
trovert any suspicion of this kind.

plaza at Union Square, where monster
mass meeting will be held and addresses
delivered by a number Of speakers.

A NEW POINT ON THE DANv1L1E.
A Claim Made That the Mortgage
Has Never Been Put on File.

n OAdAIh AhdJ Jn6 mortgage
Has Never Been Put on File.
Atlanta, Ca, April 2S.-An important
intervention in the case of the Central
Trust Company against the Richmond
and Danville has been filed in the United
States court. The Central Trust Com
pany's mortgage, under which the Dan
Vile is now ordered to be sold is attacked
by w. II. Merritt, administrator
of the estate of Frank S. Butler,
on the ground that it has never
been recorded in this state, and is, there
fore, invalid. 1t is also set up that the
mortgage is improperly executed. The
Butler estate has a suit against
the Danville for $4,000 for personal
injuries, and it is claimed that this
has a lien on the property of the road
prior to that of the mortgage, because a
mortgage cannot become effective until it
has been put upon the records, which it
is alleged has never been done in this in
stance in any county in the state. If the
intervention is sustained it will give other
claims against the Danville in this state
priority to the Central Trust Company's
mortgage that they have not had up TO
the present.

MRS. DAVIS PENSION.
The Story Sent to a New York Paper
Absolutely Untrue.

AA0 0JOIy Cthb w "a ANbW OTk Ehp6E
Absolutely Untrue.
Richmond, Va, April 2S.-The delo-
gates of the confederate camps to the
reunion at Birmingham returned to-day.
They deny the statement made IN Bir-
mingham special to New York paper,
that the committee appointed at the New
Orleans meeting TO secure pension for
Mrs Jefferson Davis, recommended that
the movement be dropped because she
resides in New York. Mayor Ellyson
who is president of the Davis Monument
Association, said the report was as far
from the truth as possible. What did occur
was this: The committee in making its
report stated that they had been unable
to secure the necessary legislation in the
southern states, because in the first place,
the constitutions of a number of these
states forbade a petition for pensions to
any persons not residents of the state,
and in other states where this prohibit
tion was not expressed in the constitution
it was the opinion Of eminent lawyers
that an appropriation could not be made
except to a resident. The committee was
discharged from further consideration of
the subject because of legal difficulties in
the way. There was no reference to the
fact that Mrs Davis resides in New York,
and there is not the slightest foundation
for the report that the reunion gave her
the ''cold shoulder

GLOVER NOT oUsTED.
Judge Newman Insists That the Road
Shall Be Sold on May 3.

Judge Newman Insists That the Road
Shall Be Sold on May 8.
Atlanta, Ca, April 2S.-The hearing of
the application for the removal of Re-
ceiver Glover, of the Marietta and North
Georgia railroad, came up before Judge
Newman in the United States court to-
day. After argument the court ordered
that the matter remain in statu QUO until
after May S, at which time the road is
advertised to be sold under foreclosure
proceedings. Judge Newman took hold
Of the case by the whip handle to-day. He
instructed very strongly that the
conduct of the bOndholders, in attacking
Receiver Glover and fighting the sale
of the road, did not have the
smack of sincerity about it, and
he gave notice that he would grant no
further postponement of the sale. His
idea is that the road ought to be put upon
the block and let the bondholders come
in and protect themselves there.
The attorneys for Receiver Glover took
the position that the bondholders who
are represented by the Central Trust
Company want to get control of the road
before 1t goes to sale and for that reason
have been fighting Receiver Glover. They
want Elias Summertfeld, who is alleged
TO represent Newman Erb, made receiver.
Once this point is gained they claim the
road would be at their mercy. The direct
complaint, argued Receiver Glover, is
that he is unable to command sufficient
financial backing to protect the interests
of the property.

BIOOD UP AT BLUEFIELDS.
Americans Kicking Because Uncle Sam
Is Not More Aggressive.

Thav Claim That the San Francisco's
on1v Mission Seems to Be to Inquire
r,+o the Landing Of the British
wsrines-A Boston Firm Ordered
Not to Unload Any More Ships, on
che Ground That the Concessions
Enioved by the Company are Not
Valid.
New Orleans, April 2S.-The w. G.
uawes. from Bluehelds, arriving this
morning Capt. Morgan said that the
uaves left Bluehelds on April o. They
nod fine weather during the entire trip.
when the Hewes left Bluefelds the
American man-of-war San Francisco had
not vet returned, but the British ship
Nsqicienne was still off the bluffs.
The only event of special consequence
since the last reports was that the Mica
ragllans had landed $50 soldiers at the bluff
with one gun, which stood on the wharf,
and from a distance looked like Cat
ling The steamer Yula also brought up
from Greytown a number of officers, in
cluding Gen. Garcia, and they are sta
noned at the bluffs.
ORDERED NOT TO LOAD SHIPS.
twas also known that the government
of Nicaragua had issued orders to the
Mahogany Company, j. S. Emory 4 Co,
of Boston. not to load any more ships for
that pont, as the government did not
consider the concessions previously made
70 that company valid. The captain and
mate stated that they had heard of
nothing new of any Importance beyond
"a hot of
trouble there, and nothing serious was
expected at once. The mate said that
the Americans were glad that the British
ships took the stand they did, and COM
paIned of the slownesS Of the American
commander to take action, but he did not
know of any special action which the
commander could have taken.
THE GOVERNMENT CRITICISED.
A passenger by the Hewes, from Blue
fields. says 1t seems that the govern
ment Of the United States cares little or
nothing for its citizens abroad. They
only sent a man-Of-war, so it seems, TO
look into the affair of the landing of the
British marines, and not for the protec-
ti0n Of its citizens. England had de-
manded an explanation Of the cause for
the withdrawal of her cOnsu's exequator.
Why had not the United States done
not reported anything against the Ameri-
cans, for know he was impressed with
the situation, and considers it necessary
Tor man-ot-war to be stationed at Blue
fields, and he insisted on Consul Braida
staying al BiuedClds
NOT ENCOURAGING.
"The action of the United States in not
Il acting promptly in looking after Ameri-
can interests properly abroad will not en-
courage citizens to attempt to increase
our foreign trade or open new avenues for
our surplus crops, and soon YOU will see
the American people arise in their might

why there should be a vacillating policy.
