BARRY AND FHE yUDoEsHrP.
what That Gsntlaman Thinks oR
the WAsAingtOn Dispatch Re-
gardIAg HizsslR.

Col. Barry was asked this morning
what he thought Of the dispatch from
Washington regarding the abandon
ment OF his application for the judge
ship by Congressman Catchings on
the grounds that the appointment
would not be made from the territory.
He laughed and replied that he con-
sidered it the most favorable indica-
tion, yet in his behalf, and that il
was evident to his mind that the out
side forces were becoming alarmed
over their own doubtful prospects.
His reasons for such belief in his own
language were as follows:
General Catchings, as close friend
of Mr.. Cleveland would not get a line
of policy from the president and then
''norate" all over Washington City, in
matters under advisement to be con-
sidered in the future. Nor Is IL pOssi-
bic the president would issue such a
sweeping manifesto against the peo-
pie, citizen or non-citisen, Of the
whole Indian Territory, denying them
rights accorded to the people every
where. He is prudent, thoughtful
man-will take his own time, and will
duly Ct nsider the claims OF everyone
no matter where he lives. / can
not believe otherwise until the con-
trary is clearly proven"

No Agresment Yet Keached

BERLIN, May 2s.-With reference to
the statement made by the organ OF the
bimetallic league that 1t is practically
certain that monetary conference will
be summoned to meet in Berlin, the
Post says: Nothing is known in au-
thoritative quarters OF any stepa being
taken to that end. 1t Is true that Prince
Hohenlohe promised to enter into com
munication with the federal govern
ments respecting the manner in which
the wishes OF legislatures regarding an
international monetary conference
could best be met. But no agreement
has as yet been arrived at"

THE DEAD SECRETARY OF STATE
The Remaino Will be in State at tho White
lHouse and tho Funeral Services
Held There,

WASHINGTON, May 2s.-Washineton
was hardly prepared for the announce
ment OF the death of Secretary of State,
Walter q. Gresham, which occurred AZ
such late hour Monday night that it
was not known to the public until read
In the morning paper to-day. Flags
were lowered to half mast on all public
buildings and many business houses
Official business wds for the time laid
aside and the members of all official
circles and other prominent PEOPLE
fastened to the Arlington, where the
Greshams have made their home in this
city to leave their cards and messages
Of coincidence.
The President and Mrs. Cleveland
called during the morning. Afterward
the President and several mem bers of
the Cabinet held q conference at the
White House to consider the arrange
ments for the funeral, and later in the
day the President issued n proclamation
paying warm tribute to the character
OF his Secretary of State. There was
also meeting Of the diplomatic corps
at the British embassy, where appro-
pirate action was taken.
The funeral ceremonies In Washing
ton will be of semi official character,
as they will be held in the east room of
the White House. The services will be
conducted by Bishop Hurst, OF the
Methodist Church, and all official BUSH
ness will be suspended for the day.
Msj.. Gen. Ruger will command all OF
the military forces stationed about the
capitol. which will act as an escort to
the depot, where special train will be
In readiness to convey the party to
Chicago. The train will leave WASH
ington shortly after noon and will have
on board President Cleveland and all of
Secretary Gresham's colleagues of the
Cabinet, who will follow the body to
with Assistant Secretary Uhl. who Ia
acting Secretary of State, will oficiate
as active psll-bearers.
IL was decided that the remains of
the dead Secretary should lie in state at
the executive mansion to morrow morn
ing. This decision was reached after
the call OF Presidents Cleveland and is
doubtless due to his wishes. Secretary
Greshsm's will be the third funeral
service in the Cabinet circle held in the
White House in recent years. Messages
Of coincidence were received by Secre-
tary Gresham's family from distin-
guished persons in Europe and America.
A Chicago dispatch says: No definite
arrangements have been made as vet
for the funeral of Secretary Gresham.
The Chicago Bar Association has ar
ranged for the calling OF a meeting of
the bar to express it's respect for the
memory Of Judge Gresham. special
meeting Of the city council will be held
tomorrow afternoon at 3 o'clock to take
appropriate action upon the death of
the late Secretary

jurist 1t is further said that he is SO
earnest in his opposition to the partici-
patton OF the judiciary in politics that
he has recommended moro than once
the adoption OF o constitutional amend-
ment which would render any member
of the United States Supreme Court in
eligible to the office of President of the
U nited States.
In the campaign of 1884 some enthu-
siastic friends.ln the West wrote to him,
1t is said, urging him to allow tie use
of his name as a candida to for the Pres.
idency, but he declined their request
and declared that he disapproved of any
participation in politics by members Of
the Supreme Court. Before he was p :
pointed to this high tribunal he had po-
liticsl ambition, but since then, his
friends claim that he has not taken any
part whatever in politics. This In all
probability ia true statement of the
case, but, while such may be the views
Of Justice Harlan, 1t has not held good
in the past as to all members Of the
Supreme Court, IS the political history
of this country shows.

THE REPUBLICANS OF OHIO.

The situation in Ohio politically,
from a Republican standpoint. is inter-
estlng. Governor Mckinley is an open
candidate for the Presidency, and For
aker, the South hater, wants to 90 to
the United States Senate. Senator
Sherman has been candidate Tor the
Presidential nomination every four
years since 1875, but it is supposed that
age and frequent disappointments have
dampened the srdor OF his aspirations,
and that he will not be candidate next
year.
He presided at the Republican State
convention st GAINESVILLE, Ohio, yester-
day, and made speech, in which he
said he hoped that the Republicans
would elect the next President of the
United States, and that he would be-
from the State to which he belonged.
This is taken as reference to Governor
Mo Kinley, although it is very probable.
II the contingency should arise, that the
Senator might be prevailed upon to
bear the standard OF Repu blicauism in
the next campaign himself.
In his speech to the convention how
ever, ne dealt mainly with the financial
issues and took strong grounds against
the advocates of free silver, who, he
said, would degrade our dollar to fifty
cents and il applied to the national
bonds, result in the reputation of one-
half OF the public debt. The Republican
party, he said in its national platform
of 1892, demanded good money of equal
purchasing power, whether coined OF
silver or gold, or composed of United
States notes and national bank notes
based upon the credit of the United
States, maintained at par with coin.
This he said was the bimetallic
policy, and there the Republican party
stands to-day. 1t would seek the co
operation Of all nations and of all
parties in maintaining the parity of
gold and silver coins, and IL they would
not co operate with it in policy, the Re.
publican party could and would. he
hoped, do it alone.

WHILE the silyerites in the West and
tho advocates Of sound money in the
East are working vigorously on a chm
paign of educasion, the financial situa-
tion, in spi q of Congressional lnaction
and the shrieks of calamity no wlers ia
Frightening to such an extent that
with prosperity everywhere tho people
OF this country may cease to taks in
terest in the agitation in the presence
OF the moro absorbing ques-
ton Of making money. Reports from
all sections OF the country show thu
the turn in the lans OF adversely has
been reached and that the financial
question Is being lost sight of to con.
siderable extent in the prospects of bet.
ter times. That this Improvement las
not been brought about by legislation
all can see; hence should the times
continue to get better without Congress
aional action, the people will lose faith
In legislation az q factor in producing
prosperity and pay no attention to fin
ancial quacks Of any kind.

England An Il the Gold Standard.

New York, May 2s.-A London
csblegram 10 the Evening Post says:
"Sir VIM. Vernon Harcourt, chancellor
of the exchequer, has formally replied

ential bankers and hnanciers, in terms
emphasizing his previous strong remarks
in favor OF the gold standard. His re-

THERE is considerable specula ton at
Washington by politicians and others
outside Of admins tration circles as to
the probable successor to Secretary
Gresham. Prominent among the large
number OF names mentioned in this
connection are those Of Attorney-Gen-
eral Olney, Mr.. Uhl, the present assist
ant Secretary OF State, Senator Gray.
OF Delaware; Ambassadors Bayard and
Eustis, ex-Secretary Whitney and ex-
Postmaster-General Dickinson. All of
the predictions, however, are purely
speculation, as the subject has not been
mentioned, much less discussed by the
President or anyone in his confidence.
The President has thirty days under the
law withiniwhich to make h.s selection
and those who know him best believe
that no appointment will be made with :
out great elaboration. 1t is thought
that choice will not be definitely de-
termined upon for sometime yes.

DISPATCHES from the Southwest indi-
cate that the situation among the strik-
ing miners in the Flat Top coal fields Ia
improving and that there Ia reason to
hope that the troubles there will be
soon brought to an end. Operations are
carried on energetically al Pocahontas,
where the output from the mines Is
daily increasing. Several of the mining
sumed operations and new men are
going to work. This has healthy look,
and it is sincerely hoped that the end
Of the strike is near at hand.

THE pREsrDnN AND HAWAII.

The popular idea tina. President
Cleveland, when ne entered upon his
second administration, was animated by
stu bborn prejudice against the annex
alton OF Hawaii, bscsuae the proaosal
originated with his political opponents,
according 20 recent adyices from Wash
ington, is all wrong. From she actua!
record Of facts, it is claimed that his
prepossessions wero tho other way.
Daring his first administration nc
showed unmistakably on moro than one
occasion desire 10 draw closer the
bonds OF commercial intercourse and
anity with the Hawaiians.
In his annual message to Congress In
December, 1888. with reference to the
proposition for laying cable to connect
this country with the islands, he said:
"The geographical position of the Ha-
waiian group in relation to our Pacific
States creates natural interdepend-
ency and mutually of interests which
our present treaties were intended 10
foster and which make close communi-
cation logical and commercial necess.
ity."
The overthrow Of tho monarchy by
what he believed to be unjust methods
changed his views. and since then he
has been openly hostile to the present
government. This issue will enter
largely into the next Presidential CAM
paign, as the Republicans are virtually
committed to the policy of annexation,
but 1t is very plain that It has not the
strength now 1t had earlier in Mr..
Clevelands administration.
