TON REED SIZES UP MEN.
He is Taking Notes all the New Mem
beers of Congress.

Ders OF congress.
Washington June 25.-The next house
I Of representatives in some material re-
| spects will be organized under difficult
| ties that have seldom. troubled a speak
er. These difficulties grow from the
fact that most Of the members of the
Republican majority will not only be
serving their first term in the Fifty
fourth congress but for the most part
they are untried politicians, whose
ideas are little known and whose stand
ing on important public questions has
never been ascertained because they
have never been called upon to act in
matters of that kind.
The problem now before Dir. Reed
Cwho viii surely be speaker, and which
he must solve is how 10 place these
| untried men upon committees. II is
reported that he has taken measures TO
secure clippings from newspa pers con-
tanning interviews with the new MEM
bers. and those who served in the last
congress as well, in order to inform
| himself of the opinions OF these men
on questions likely TO be considered
by the house. II is said he is also get
ting clippings OF reports of conventions
that have been held throughout the
country during the past several months
so that he may be more closely in
touch not only with members of his
own party. but also with members OF
the Democratic and POpulistic par
ties.
Chief among the questions that viii
come before congress viii be the sub
ject OF silver. Consequently the COM
mittee on banking and currency Is 70
garded as one OF the most imports q
OF the committees. and the selection aos
only Of its chairman. but cf every men,
Der. both Republican and Democratic.
viii have much attention.
Mr.. Reed has talked but little for
publication on the issues that are like
~ TO consume the time Of the Fifty
fourth congress. and his views on these
questions are known chiefly because OF
his record in past CONGRESSES.

Santa Fe, y. NJ, June 25.-The case
involving the great Peralta grant. sit
uated in Arizona and New Mexico and
covering IL, 465, 900 acres of land, which
has been on trial for three weeks. was
decided today in favor Of the govern
ment. The claimant was in court, ap-
pearing cool and collected. The court
held every title paper to be forged and
manufactured and that the nilsson re-
cords of San Salvador, Cal, were forg-
ed to enable the wife of the claimant
to connect herself with Peralta fam
lily. Chief Justice Reed announced that
ii was not necessary TO determine who
Mrs. Peralta Reavis was but it was
sufficient to hold that she was not an
heir of the alleged grant nor entitled
TO maintain the suit. The written opin-
ion will be filed by the chief justice
| as soon as it can be prepared. Upon
Amusement Reavis was arrested by the
United States marshal for asserting

HE PREFERS SILVER
SENATOR VEST WANTS NO MONO
METALLISM IN HIS.
But il it were by Any Means to Come to
that He Speaks for the silver Standard,
just to Spite England--Favofs Ss1te
Convention, ~ Calculated. at Worst. to
do Less Harm than the Denial of q Call
for One--Against the Gold Standard,
Himself, Anyhow--Siiver Convention in
Michigan.

Sweet Springs. Mo-. June Ex-senator
Vest, who is stopping at his cottage
near here, had this to say today on
the money question in its relation to
the country as a whole, and especially
to Missouri:
There must be a settlement of the
silver question without equivocation.
We must determine to adopt the gold
standard permanently. retire the green
backs and perpetuate the national
banks with their paper based exclu-
sively on gold. or We must open our
minis to silver.
1.-The financial servitude which now
exists on the part of the United States
TO foreigners should cease. Nothing
could be more degrading than the pres
ent conditions.
Il believe in real bimetallism-the
use of both gold and silver as stand
ard money-but if we must have one
metal or the other, 1 would take silver,
for we would then at least be indepen-
dent instead of being the tail of the
English kite, and the helpless victims
of the Rathschild syndicate"
When asked his opinion about CALI
ing state convention or the Demo-
cratic party in Missouri to consider the
silver question Senator Vest said that
he believed a majority of the party de-
sired a convention, and he assumed
that the state committee would obey
the demand of the majority. The mat
ter had gone so far that more irrita-
ton would come from the refusal to
call the convention than anything the
convention could possibly do.
Il do not know that / shall attend
the convention" he continued. 'if IN
the state, for one of its objects has
been published to be the consideration
of the action of the states delegation
in congress on the silver question. In
any event, absent or present, in the
