THE NAMES
SILVER DEMOCRATS ARE SIGNING
THE DECLARATION.
Sets Forth the Free Silver Mans Confession
of Faith and Proposes to Restore Silver
to Free and Unlimited Coinage Along
With Gold as Ii Was Prior to 1879
Representative Members OF Congress
From Fifteen States in It--Paramount
Importance of the Money Question In
the Campaign Of 1896.

Washington. March 1.-The Demo-
cratic silver manifesto which has been
the chief topic of talk on that side OF
the house for few days, was made pub
lie today. While it has been generally
circulated for the consideration OF mem
bers, there was no attempt to secure
signatures until late hour because the
prime movers in the matter were I'M
decided whether to call a caucus for
discussion of the matter, or TO secure
signatures, or to issue directly TO the
public. In consideration of the short
time left and the pressure of business it
was determined not to have a confer
ence. Representative members from
fifteen states signed the declaration to-
day at the instance OF Mr.. Bryan, but
the canvass is SO far very incomplete
and the list Of signers will not be made
public until it is complete. The paper
follows:
ITO the Democrats of the United
States-We, the undersigned Democrats
present for your consideration the fol-
lowing statement: We believe that the
establishment of gold as the only none
tary standard, and the elimination OF
silver as full legal tender money will
increase the purchasing power of eacn
dollar, add to the burden of all debts,
decrease the market value or all other
forms of property, continue and inten-
sify business depression and finally re-
duce the majority of the people TO finan-
cial bondage.
I'VE believe that no party can hope
for enduring success in the United
States so long as it advocates a single
gold standard, and that the advocacy Of
such a financial policy would be espec-
tally unfortunate to party which, like
the Democratic party, derives its vot-
ing strength from those who may with
cut reproach be called the common peo-
pie; and we point to the overwhelming
defeat of the party in 1894, to the Oppo-
sition aroused by the veto Of the seig-
niorage bill and to the still more unani-
nous protest against the issue of gold
bonds as proof that the Democratic par
ty cannot be brought to the support of
the gold standard policy.
I'VE believe that the money question
will be the paramount issue in 1896, and
will so remain until it IS settled by the
intelligence and PATROLS of the Amer
lean voter.
1--WE believe a large majority of the
Democrats of the United States favor
bimetallism and realize it can only be
secured by the restoration of the free
and unlimited coinage Of gold and sill
yer at the present ratio, and We assert
that the majority has and should exert
the right to control the policy OF the
party and retain the party name.
I'VE believe it is the duty of the ma
jority and within their power to take
charge of the party organization and
make the Democratic party an effective
in the accomplishment of
needed reforms.
ut is not necessary that Democrats
should surrender their convictions on

Attempt to Draw Up n Freight Rate SEIZED

Omaha, Neb.. March 1.-The confer
ence of the western railroad officials in

in no way responsible for the disaster.
The most terrible Mexican railroad
accident WAS the one that occurred on
the night OF June q, 1881, when a train
on the San Morelos railway was preci-
pitated by the fall of bridge into the
river near Cuartla. About 200 lives
were lost in that accident.

General Sporting News.
Boston, March lin the presence Of
1000 people at Murray's hall tonight
Joe Wolcott and Billy Smith fought fiji
teen rounds for the weltereweight
championship of this country and Ref
cree Aaron decided at the close Of the
fifteenth round that the fight was d
draw in the midst of wild excitement
and applause and Kisses. AT the close
of the fifteenth round Wolcott insisted
on fighting TO a finish. Smith shook
hands pleasantly with Walcott and the
big crowd thought a finish fight would
ensue but it was decided that the fight
was over.
Smith, although the severest pun
shed for a dozen rounds, came up smil-
ingly and fresh in the thirteenth and
from that to the finish was looked up
on as the winner, but the closing two
rounds were even honorS and the de-
cision was accepted as just one, al
though the audience longed for few
more rounds.
Walcott was the favorite and was
the cleverest leading and landing
throughout. Smith was game and put
up good fight. During the fight
Smith showed up best in the seventh
and thirteenth rounds and recovered SO
we'll that his faults We're overlooked in
the other rounds. Welcott was the
punisher and Smith the aggressor dur
ing the fight. In the sixth round
Smith fioored the colored boy and
punched him to the ropes. Smith,
however, was terribly punished and
pluckily held mis- own. The fight was a
series of rushes and punches on the
heart, face and head, and at these
times the spectators waited for the
finish punch TO close the fight
George DIXON was behind Walcott
and HOWE Hodekins piloted Billy
Smith Barney Aarons Of New York
was the referee and Dan Murphy time
keeper.
