The report that he plans to quit his Of

peror would consent to receive at court.
Alter many days of cloudy skies and
raw winds, the imperial party at Abbaz-
zia are getting some brilliant and warm
spring weather. When the emperor ar
rived he expressed great disappointment
at seeing the women of the court wearing
all the furs which they required in Ber-
lin, and finding the hills behind the town
still covered with snow. On the next
day. however, strong sun melted the
snow and quickened vegetation Now,
the emperor and empress and their chill

preferences, and stares from a distance.
Prussia is about TO follow Bavaria's
example and pass law forbidding the
use of carrier pigeons without a license
from the government. When the subject
was up in the Bavarian chamber, the pre-

loose in the palatinate for foreign homes,
This statement put the Prussian authori-
ties on the alert, as all realize that in the
next war carrier pigeons will form a
most important part of the news service.

A NEW MONETARY CONFERENCE
Mexico TO Call it Backed BY the Span
ish American Nations.

Washington, March 25.-There are
strong probabilities of now international
monetary conference being called to-
gether this time on the invitation
of the republic Of Mexico. The
last conference, which met in Bel
gium. and was called by the
United States, adjourned subject TO the
action Of the government that called it
together. Positive assurances having
been obtained from our state department
that after the demonetization Of silver by
the British government In India this gov
ernment would not take the
initiative in reconvening the conference,
other countries have taken hold of the
matter. 1t is unoiiicially but authenti-
cally learned that Mexico and the other
Spanish-Americau nations producing and
using silver as money. after waiting some
time for the leading commercial ma
tions Of the world TO make
some effort for the purpose Of
remedying the condition of things brought
about by the demonetizatiou of silver
have virtually decided TO take the matter
in their own hands. The Mexican gov
ernment, it is understood, has been sound
ing the American and Asiatic nations
which use and produce silver, for the pur-
pose Of ascertaining their views on the
subject, intending eventually to call for
monetary conference of bimetalliC ma
tions, to meet at the City of Mexico, to
discuss the subject and to take such ac-
tion as they may think desirable
TO BE HELD IN THE AUTUMN.
There is belief in well-informed cir
cles that the proposed meeting will take
place next autumn and that the United
States will participate, although this
cannot be oticially verified. In case
the convention is confined TO delegates
from South and Central America, China
and India, it is not unlikely that the
move will force European bondholders to
bring influences to bear upon their re-
spective governments which may mate
rally advance the prospects Of bimetal-
lism. Senor Romero, the Mexican minis
ter to the United States, who has been
closely watching the German conference,
which has had tor its object revival Of
the Brussels conference, diploma atically
declines TO affirm or deny the statements
that his government has not taken the
initiative in the matter. 1t is not doubted
that he has brought the subject to the at
tention of Secretary Gresham, and the
purpose TO locate the next conference in
the City of Mexico is a fact.

Law Will Not Be Repealed.
Washington, March %. Chairman
Springer, of the House committee on bank
ing and currency, does not believe any bill
to repeal the 10 per cent. state bank tax
can pass through this congress. He says:
But the friends of the bill did not want
1t reported adversely. They now propose
to bring 1t up for debate in the House as
soon as the appropriation bills
and contested election cases are
out Of the way. I have been instructed
to report favorably on the Brawley bill,
eXempting from the state bank tax the
scrip issued in the southern states, which
served the purpose of currency in COM
mercial transactions during the financial
stringency. When that bill is reported
the advocates of repeal of the state
bank tax will move to amend
1t by relieving all state bank cur
rency from the tax. in this way
they hope TO secure vote on the repeal
Of the tax. 1t will not carry, however.
Nearly every northern democrat is op-
posed to it. The only demand for repeal
comes from the southern states Georgia,
Alabama, louisiana and Tennessee.

to Tap the International.
Monterey, Mex, March ga corps of
civil engineers have been sent here from
New York by Carl p Huntington, presi-
dent of the Southern PaUifc railroad
with instructions to run survey of a
route for a railroad from this city to
Monclova, at which station connection is
made with the Mexican International,
which is also part of the Southern Pacific
system. The Mexican International is
now being extended to the Sierra Mcjada
mining camp from Monclova, and the
proposed line to this city is to be built for
the purpose of obtaining a direct outlet
for the rich silver ores of Durango and
Sierra Mojada. The building of the pro
posed road will give Monterey a much
shorter standard gauge route to the
United States than at present. The work
on the extension Of the Monterey and
Mexican Gulf railroad from Trevino TO
Sierra Mojada will begin in a short time.

SIGNING OF THE BLAND BILL.
Clevel and Need Not Return the Bill
Until Friday.


Washington, March 25.-There has been
some doubt expressed as TO when the
Bland seiguiorage bin must be acted upon
by the President, or when, If not acted
upon, it VIII become a law without his
approval. The best authority on that
subject is Assistant Secretary Purdcn,
who has carried every veto
from the white house TO the
capitol for more than twenty years. Mr.
Pruden's statement of the construction Of
the law that has been followed during all
administrations of late years, is that ten
clear days must be allowed. Sundays, of
course, not being counted The seicnior-
age bill was carried to the white house
after the ordinary departmental OH
cial hours on March 10. The President
had gone out riding with Mrs Cleveland
few minutes before the bill was brought
TO the executive mansion. This throws
the date Of its official receipt over to the
following day-March 20, and gives the
President until Friday, March 80, for his
action.
CLEvELAND's OWN PREoEpENTs.
There were one or two cases during
Mr.. Cleveland's first administration
where this point came up. There was
one instance where he sent in veto of a
bill just at the end of the ten days. 1t
was something in regard to the Kear-
sarge, now lying on Roucador reef. The
bill originated in the Senate and
consequently the veto was sent
to that body. but when IL
got to the capitol on the tenth
the Senate had adjourned over from
Thursday TO Monday, rs it had a consti-
tutional right TO do, and was not In ses-
sion. Mr.. Ingalls,, who, after the death
of Vice President Hendricks, became the
presiding officer of the Senate, declined
TO receive the veto, so did Secretary Nc
Cook. Nevertheless, the Senate on the
following Monday spread the veto on the
minutes twelve days after date and the
bill failed to become law.
Another case, also during Mr. Cleve-
lands first term affected a land law. There
the question arose, whether the bill had
been held ten days before congress ad-
Journed. Mr., Cleveland insisted that
there must be ten clear days and not one
half day. That bill is still in the oxecu-
tive safe and has never been sent over to
the state department for PRONUNCIATION.
From all of which 1t Is assumed that
the President may take till Friday. If he
so chooses, before signing or vetoing the
selgniorage bill

AN AERoNAur KILLED.
He Falls 1900 Feet From Balloon
Into the Mediterranean.

He Falls 800 Feet From Balloon
Into the Mediterranean.
Cannes, March 25.-An aeronaut named
Wilton, well known in America, met
tragic death here to-day in. an ascension.
No car was attached to the balloon and
Wilton ascended hanging to a rope. When
l 800 feet high the balloon was caught in
n current Of air that carried it rapidly
seward. 1t was apparent that
Wilton could not control the valve at tho
top. He let 20 his hold Of the rope from
which he Gangled and his body shot down
into the sea with frightful velocity, The
accident occurred in full view Of thousands
of spectators, and a number of women
tainted away A number Of pleasure
boats hurriedly made their way to the
place where Wilton had fallen and, after
a short search, his body was recovered.
His death must have been almost instan-
taneous.
CHANGE IN THE WIND
Prior to the fatal ascent Wilton sent up
several small balloons to ascertain the
direction of the wind. Finding it TO be
landwardS he dispensed with the large
car and used merely a small platform
with a rope attacked The first report
that Wilton had gone up but 800 feet
when he encountered the wind
leaward was described by an
aerOnaut this evening as entirely
erronous. The aeronaut said that Wilton
was at least 800 feet above the surface
when the north current swept him OF
shore. Many pleasure craft were in the
harbor when Wilton struck, but none was
quick enough TO reach him, although he
survived his fall about ten minutes. An
examination of his body showed that he
received a shattering blow on the right
side of his head. Had it not been for
this wound he might have been able to
keep himself above the water until help
arrived

HORSE RACING IN MEXICO.
The Natives to Take UP the Sport. and
Start a Circuit.

City Of Mexico, March 25.-The recent
introduction of horse racing in Mexico
this year by II. G. Pate, Of ST. Louis,
who made complete failure of his enter
prise, has resulted in much interest being
awakened in that class of sport among
TIE Mexicans, and a company has been or
ganized for the purpose of establishing q
a race course in each of the principal
cities of the republic. Extensive breed
ing farms will be run in connection with
the racing enterprises The enterprise
will be conducted upon American princi-
pies, but is not expected that American
sports viii participate in the race

Santander, March 25.-Eighteen men

Their bodies had been identified while
those buried on Thursday had been so
mutilated as to be beyond recognition.
The whole population of the city followed
the bodies yesterday. On their
way back from the cemetery the
people stoned the officers Of the company

made an attack on the governors house.
The double force of guards who had been
detailed to protect the governor drove

The Eckstein Concerts,

On Saturday and Sunday evenings
Turner Hall was filled with good-s1zed
audiences consisting of appreciat1ve peo-
pie who were anxious to note the progress
that has been made in music III this CITY.
The programmes contained some excel
lent selections and the orchestra rendered
them with good taste and considerable
artistic skill. The solos on each evening
were we'll received, as attes.ed by the
long applause and frequent recalls. To
Mr.. Eckstein, Mr.. Neumann, MIR. Toberer
and Mr.. Kitzberger especial credit is due,
for they played with unexpected ability.
The audience went wild over couple of
members and round after round of an
plause went out to the encouragement of
the ambitious boys. The solos of Miss
Ella Setter were also surprise to her
friends and that young lady has easily
proven herself a popular favorite. Her
voice, while not particularly strong. is
clear and sweet, and of a kind that
eolists at once The sympathy of her hear
ers. The double lyric quartette captured
new laurels and considerably strength
ened their hold upon the public. The
same was true of the K. P. quartette.
The songs of both blended in splendid
harmony and gave evidence of several
good voices.

was that great stroke, made in Comstock
fashion in behalf Of morality-a vote in
favor Of a law prohibiting women from
appearing in tights on the stage--a NIGH
ty poor bill, and wonderfully incon-

the verify of its date-every school boy

pondent is that Morse Mythology is quite
as old as the story told i'll the Bible about
the entrance of sin into the world. Like
most other statements made by him this
one Is alse false. The eddas or oldest
portion OF that mythology do not date
IN written form further back than the
18th century according to Norwegian
authority, R. Keyser. And he says fur
ther that the eddss are manifestly taken
from the Christian literature, they are
corruption OF the Biblical narrative.

And thus bring this rather lengthy

and find it equally at fault. Lord Bacon
wrote that little philosophy led man
