The Silver Democrats.

WASHINGTON, Aug. 16.-The Ex-
ecutive Committee appointed by the
Democratic silver conference to effect
permanent organization to-day de-
cided not to attempt to complete the
national committee for the present.
A postponement was rendered neces-
sary by the fact that the committee
received the names of proper men for
the national organization from only
the States represented at the con:
ference. They consider it desirable
that the best advice possible should
be had in the selection of the COM
mittee, and after distributing the
work of obtaining the necessary in
formation am ong the members, i'd
journed subject to the call of the
chairman.
Colonel Young said to day that it
was the purpose of the Executive
Committee to complete the national
organization as soon as possible.
1t is probable that a meeting for
the announcement of this committee
will be held i'll some western city, and
st. Louis has been suggested as the
most conveniently-located. There is
some division of opinion as to where
the headquarters should be; some
members Observation-Disclosures, while
others believe a western city would
be preferable.

A Tariff OH NIatrimony,

A young lady who goes to Concor-
dia, Kan, to teach school will find q
very exacting rule, which was re-
Gently adopted by the Board of Edu-
cation. 1t seems that several lady
teachers have married in the midst
of the term when it was impossible to
fill their places. This the Concordia
School Board proposesto regulate, and
1t did so recently by the adoption Of
the following resolutions;
1nasmuch as it seems to be the
custom of lady teachers Of the public
schools of Concordia, Kan, to con
tract marriage without the knowledge
or consent of said Board, therefore
be it
RESOLVED, By said Board of Educa-
ton that should any of the lady teach
ers OF the Concordia schools hereafter
commit matrimony during the term
for which they have been elected they
shall forfeit q sum of money equal to
one half months salary, provided,
they take a home man, and Il sum
equal to ono months salary in case
the groom is imported from some
other county or State; in either case
the lady shall cause card of invi.

bers Of the Board Of Education.

The Durrant Case,

SAN FRANCISCO. August 16.-The
trial Of the Durrant case was resumed
this morning. Out OF one hundred
and twenty five veniremen sum-
moned, only twenty-five appeared.
Out Of this number no new jurors
we're obtained. Although he occu-
pied his seat on the bench, Judge
Murphy is still sick with la grippe.
After the noon recess the case will
be adjourned until next Monday.
Mrs. Leak, the new witness for the
prosecution, who says she saw Dur-
rant and Blanche Lamont enter the
Emanuel Church on the afternoon the
girl was murdered, still sticks to her
story, which completes the chain of
circumstantial evidence against Dur
rant. Mrs. Leak is member OF
Emanuel church and knew both Dur.
rant and Miss Lamont. She watched
them from her fiat directly opposite
the church. The police are very in
dignant that her story has been pub.
lished before she was called as wit
ness.

A Startling Development.

That which might properly be con-
sidered as the first real wedge entered
IN the fight over the Foley estate was
a petition filed with the County Clerk
Porter today. 1t gives the first init.
nation of the ground upon which the
claim is set up for Mrs. Hartlev's
babe, for one half of the estate of the
late Senator. The petition was filed
by James F. Dennis and Henry
Mayenbaum, counsel for Vernon Har-
rison Hartley, and DIR. G. III. Thoma.
his guardian, which alleges that
the minor child is the illegitimate
child of M. d. Foley, deceased, and
the offspring of his mother, Alice M.
Hartley, and was conceived while the
latter was unmarried. That before the
birth of said minor child, said M. D..
Foley did acknowledge in writing.
signed in the presence Of a compe
tent witness, that he was the father of
the child. That said child is the only
issue and ineal descendent and sole
heir Of said ND, Foley, deceased. and
is entitled to his portion of the estate
left by the deceased.
The petition prays the court for an
order that the mother, sisters and
brothers, or either or all or any of
them, are not entitled to any part of
said estate, and that one-half of the
estate be distributed and given to said
minor upon the delivery to the admin
istratrix of such bond as is required
by law.
The petition sets forth the fact-that
Mrs. Foley is entitled to one half the
estate and the minor child the other
half, less the costs of administra-
ton.
1t will be remembered that during
the trial. of Mrs. Hartley for the kill
ing Of Senator Foley, she testified that
she had asked deceased to acknowl-
edge the parentage of the child, and
that he had said he would do so and
file it with some other papers in a bank
at Salt Lake. The Senator had re-
turned from Salt Lake just a few
days previous to his death, and it is
likely, from present indications, that
while there he filed the acknowledge
ment referred to in the petition.

ALTGELD TALKS.
Illinois Governor Expresses His Opip.
ion Regarding the Charges
Of Bribery.
Certain There Was Boodling in the At.
tempt to Pass the Humphrey
Racing Eill.

Chicago, July "a morning paper
prints Springfield dispatch containing
an interview with Gov Altgeld regard
ing the alleged bribery in connection with
the attempt made to pass the Humphrey
Racing bill at the late session of the leg
lslature. The governor, according to the
dispatch, expressed himself as follows:
1T Is fact that certain members Of
the general assembly were paid large
sums for their support of the Humphrey
Racing bill. One member, I am told,
was pa1d $o,OOO by an officer of the racing
ASSOCIATION. All these facts will doubt
less be made public at the proper time
and place.
THAT boodling or attempted boodling
has marked the progress of nearly eyery
important bill through the assembly is
common report, and there is plenty of evil
dence on the subject. Whether the SEN
ate and the house will notice the DIVER
and Plotke charges and inquire into them
or whether they will ignore them I can
not say, but the two houses clearly owe
1t to their honor to make thorough in
vestigation.
Unless something is done to break up
the practice of boodling in the legisla-
ture 1t will result in the breaking down
or our state institutions. If some of the
members who make practice Of SELL
ing their votes for money could be sent
10 the penitentiary it would be the best
thing that could happen to the state
The conviction and punishment of legis-
lative boodlers would free the legisla-
ture from such practices for years to
come"
