BOIES FOR FREE SILVER.
Writes Another Letter Outlining His
Views on the Financial Question

Des MoineS, Ia, June 20.--EX-GoV-
ernor Horace Boies, of Waterloo, to
whom the free silver Democrats of the
state now look as q leader, has written
another letter in which he comes out
more vigorously than ever in favor of
the free coinage OF silver. The letter
is addressed to George b. Lewis. of Des
Moines. In 1t Mr.. Boies advocates the
free and unlimited coinage Of silver in
dependent of the action of any other
government. He says that the most
dangerous enemies of silver are those
who, while claiming to want bmetall-
ism, demand NJ under such circum-
stances that they know 1t can never be
realized.
He suggests that this country should
coin its own silver, and that this would
increase the value of the metal the
world over, so that there would be no
danger of flood of the metal here. He
also proposes that this country should
take up its other forms of paper money
with an increased issue of silver GER
tihcates which would by this arrange
men be given the full value that their
face indicates, and as every dollar of
the certificates would be backed by coin
1t would be the best system in the
world.

PRESSMEN'S UNION.
The Surprise OF the Convention Is Pre-.
cipitated at Afternoon Session,

cipitated at Afternoon Session.
Philadelphia, June 20-The third
business session of the international
Printing Pressmens union was held
this morning. The chief business trans
acted was the consideration of q prop
ositlon brought up at the last session
advocating union with the typesetters
and bookbinders.
This proposition was presented by
President Preston, of the international
Typographical union President
Chance, of the Philadelphia Typogra-
phical union; President Cotton. of the
Brotherhood of Bookbinders: John M.
Tony, and Others, took part in the dis
cussion, and the matter was referred to
special committee. At the afternoon
session the surprise of the convention
was sprung when the committee on
conference presented the following as
the basis of agreement between the In
ternational Typographical union and In
ternational Printing Pressmens union:
That the International Typographical
union recognize the right of the lnterna-
tional Printing Pressmens union to char
ter. regulate and control printing press
men, press IeeueTS unu neipeTS III pfesS
rooms in the United States and Canada.
and tho International Printing Pressmens'
union recognize the right Of the Interna-
tional Typographical union to charter and
control all other crafts in the printing
trade. who wish to affiliate with them.
The above is a similar agreement to
that drawn UP by the st. Louis confer
ence committee. and which was the
stumbling block to consolidation at
that time.
The agreement has been placed in the
hands Of committees from both organi-
cations. and on their report depends the
question whether or not the Interna-
tional Typographical union and the In
ternatlonal Printing Pressmen's union
will join hands 1t IS not thought, how
ever, that there Is chance for affilia-
tiOD. Adjourned until Tomorrow

vsed the acting secretary Of war today
that on Tuesday. June II, 1O9 vessels
passed through the st. Mary's Falls

or one every fifteen minutes.
The daily average OF vessels passing
the locks thus far this month is a frac.
tion over ninety.fve. Colonel Poe's re-
port shows that the canal is capable Of
