To TEST the sincerity Of the Senators
from the silver States,a proposition was
made in the U. S. Senate to buy all the
silver product of those States at its
market value and coin it into standard
dollars, allowing tho government the
profit OF the seigniorage, that is, the diff
ference between the market and the
coined value of the silver in those
dollars. The Senators referred to
voted against it to man. What
they wanted to do was, ard
is, to make the governmentcoir,
free of expense, every fifty cents worth
Of silver bullion brought to the minis
by the silver mine owners, and to force
The people of the country to accept such
deprecated dollars Mt their face value
The Memphis silver convention yester
day passed, unanimously, o resolution
with the same object in view. How
any body else except the owners OF
silver bullion could be benefited by such
coinage has not yet been explained,
that is, satisfactorily.

THE SILVERITES.

The silver convention at Memphis,
Tenn, yesterday adopted resolutions
containing nothing more than strong
presentation of the free silver senti-
ment.
The resolutions are quite lengthy.
They allege that the recent depression
was due to the conspiracy by which
siluer was demoralized. The effect of
the gold standard is to establish one
standard for the creditor and one for
the debtor. No just law establishes
one measure of value for the borrower
and one for the lender.
The restoration of silver as money
metal on an equality with gold and the
free and unlimited coinage of silver and
gold at ratio of 16 to is demanded.
While international agreement is desir-
able the United States should not wait
upon this agreement nor surrender the
sovereign right to regulate its financial
affairs in the interest of its people.
A resolution was also adopted pro-
viding for the appointment of a commit
tee, which shall have power to call q
conference of bimetallists whenever it
may deem it necessary.
Senator-elect Tillman, of South Caro-
lima. furnished the sensation of the day
in a speech, in which he assaulted the
present record of the democratic party,
spoke of Secretary Carlisle as being own
ed by somebody, and then continued ::
What is the condition now of the
democratic party? Now, this has q di-
rect bearing on silver and you will see
it directly. What is that condition {?
AS a democrat am almost ashamed to
catalogue it or speak of it in an assem-
bly, mostly democratic. The President
whom we elected by q vote almost
larger than that received by any of his
predecessors, has betrayed the party.
There is no use to deny that fact. l
use the good old honest language
that you know-and I believe he is
first cousin to Benedict Arnold in poll
tics"
The convention adjourned with a
schism in it. One faction advocated
the Sibley 'idea" and the capture of
the democratic convention and, failing
in that, the independent political ac-
ton, while others were for sighting the
issue strictly within party lines.

Terrible Boiler Explosion.

FALL RIVER, Mass, June 14.-One OF
the worst catastrophes that have ever
visited this city occurred this morning.
A new boiler exploded in The two-story
wooden building of the Langley loom
harness shop, blowing out the sup
ports and allowing the upper floor to
settle into mass ofruins. There wei 45
persons at work in the shop, the greater
percentage of this number being wo-
men, and only nine are known to have
escaped alive. The flames communi-
Gated with the ruins and they began to
burn briskly. Shrieks from the girls
in the ruins were mingled with the
agonized cries of their friends, and
every physician who could be reached
was sent at once to the scene. At 9
o'clock the fire had been quenched,
but it was still smouldering and the
work of rescuing could 60 on only
with difficulty. Four dead bodies had
been recovered up to II o'clock.
Slater dispatches show that but
seven persons lost their lives. A
number were injured.

EXECUTION OF THE EDMUNDs ACT.
The execution of the Edmunds law in
Washington is occasioning several social
changes. Among them is said to be
that more applications will hereafter
be made by disjointed halves of the
marriage bond for divorce from bed
and board than from the bonds of mat
rimony. The divorce from the bonds
of matrimony leaves the parties free to
marry again, unless the judge other.
wise orders, which he never does. The
divorce from bed and board leaves
the parties still husband and wife, but
separates them. 1t is said that there
fore many of the divorced husbands es.
pecially did not desire to marry again,
but that the Edmunds law is so
changing the conditions of some phases
of social life in Washington that di-
vorced men are now more likely to
marry. Under these circumstances it
is limited that deserted wives will seek
only alimony and divorce from bed
and board, and give husbands the
choice of return to their marital
VOWS, a bachelors home or the terrors
of the Edmunds law.

cbean money. 1t was made of the
cboanest because the most abundant,
ofall metals, iron, and was SO heavy
that according to Plutarch, ten mime,
eoual TO about one hundred and fifty
dollars. could not be transported with
out a yoke of oxen. But having sense
enough to know that such money
would necessarily check all CONNER
cial relations with other countries, and
being too proud to allow those coun-
tries to take the initiative in suspend
ing such relations, they strictly prohib
tied all commerce, and, though their
sea coast had many harbors, they al
lowed no foreign ships to approach
their shores, and had not single mer-
chant vessel of their own. The silver
ties. Or bi-metallists, as they call them
selves, though in fact they are silver
mono metallists, of this country, would
have cheap dollars-worth fifty cents
and though foreign countries expressly
declare they will not accept such
money, and will not trade on a silver
basis, expect to continue commercial
relations with those countries. AS nc
country, in this age, can get along
well, by itself, aud as the surplus prod
ucts of the United States must be dis
posed of somewhere, trade between
them and foreign countries would con
tinue even if their currency were like
that of Lacedemon, but, of necessity, te
their great disadvantage. The condi
tons of trade are such now that the
value of all other things, everywhere
is measured by that of gold, and fol
the United States to attempt to estab-
lish another standard, with the whole
commercial world against them, would
be as grotesquely ridiculous as the
edict of the famous three tailors Of
Tooley street.
