The free silver coinage people can put in
their spare time trying to dispose of these
statements from BeGssiary Carllsle's great
speech
81. There is not free coinage country
in the world to day that is not on a silver
basis.
~ There is not a gold standard coun-
try in the world to-day that does not use
silver money along with gold.
's3. There is not a silver standard coun-
try in the world to-day that uses any gold
along with silver.
~. There is not a silver standard coun-
try in the world to-day that has more than
one-third of the circulation per capita that
the United States has.
SIS. There is not silver standard coun-
try in the world to day where the laboring
man receives fair pay for his day S work. .
The Baltimore sam has just celebrated
its fifty-eighth birth day. Of that fifty
eight, this writer has read it daily for forty
years-less the four Of the civil war. In
all that forty years it has been just what it
is to-day--a paper in the front rank of
American journalism for ability and en-
terprise, and al untiinching advocate of
everything in Oh out of politics to better
the cause of the people. While so many
other leading papers Of the country have
fallen into sensational journalism and all
that that implies, the Sun has kept the
middle OF the road, and left all doubtful
things to the gutter On either side 1t is
refreshing to turn from their columns to
those of a paper in which you are certain
to find all the news, presented in way
that every man s f1reside is open to it.1

The heated term which began last week
has had nothing to approach it in this
country since the spring OF 1879. Then the
thermometers were but three degrees lower
than they have been in the last few days.
In this spell of 1895, places selected for their
GOODNESS out of town have suffered as much
as the cities. At Bon Air, summer resort
few miles out Of Richmond, the mercury
stood at 1929.
The heat has been fatal all over the coun-
try. In New Y ork there were % deaths
from it in five days, in Philadelphia 5 in
one day, and the same number in Balti-
more in one day. In Richmond. Va, Bishop
Seldenbush Of Minnesota, just after cele-
brating mass at st. Mary's church Sun
day, was stricken, dying few hours
afterward.

quartette. the orator OF the day. Gen. Wade
Hampton. was introduced and delivered an
eloquent address.
General Hampton said in part: "The scene
presented here is one that could not be wit
messed in any country but ours, and for this
reason, if for no other itpresents significance
worthy of the gravest consideration. A few
years ago brave men from the North and from
the South stood facing each other in hostile
array. and the best blood of the country was
poured out like water on many battlefield.
Thousands, hundred of thousands of our
bravest men sleep in bloody graves, men who
gave their lives to prove the faith Of their con-
victions. and now North and South, standing
by these graves wherever they may be grasp
hands across the bloody chasm and proudly
claim Federal and Confederate soldiers as
Americans-men who have given to the world
as noble examples of courage and devotion
to duty as can be enrolled on the pages Of
history.

JAPAN WILL RUN THINGS ALONE
Tho Ianapese oovernment has made

JAPAN WILL RUN THINGS ALONE
The Japanese government has made
no response to the fresh suggestions
from The British government that the
terms upon which Japan is willing to
treat for peace with China ought to be
communicated to the Powers. On the
contrary, the japanese have persisted
in maintaining policy of reticence.
The British minister at Toxic has been
unable to get the slightest scrap of Off
cial information about the conditions
for which Japan will contend, 1t is
said, however, that the leading princi-
pie Of the peace negotiations as far as
Japan is concerned will be total alb
steution from any demand which would
give China an excuse to ask for Euro
pean Intervention. Japan, therefore,
will not stipulate for any territorial or
commercial acquisitions in which the
other Powers are directly interes ed.
Formosa will be taken by Japan as
part of pledge for war indemnity, and
certain Chinese ports that are not treaty
ports will be held as o pledge for the
remainder of the indemnity, together
with such lien upon the Chlnese GUS
toms as will not prejudice the customs
revenues already mortgaged. In regard
to Corea, it is probable that Chinese
Japanese dual control over that couD
try will be proposed.
An interest attaches to the peace
negotiations between China and
Japan beyond considerations which
have yet been wildly discussed.
The understanding is that China
will have to pay Japan an in
indemnity equivalent to $500, ,000,0 900,
or $400, 900 900. As the measure of tie
sum will be in the Chinese silver coin,
and silver is the money of that country,
the payment, it is believed, will be
made in that metal. China will have
to buy considerable part of this silver,
aud it is believed that this will result
in an appreciation in the value of the
white metal.

One CATHOLICS YIEws.-A Catho-
lie member of the Knights of Pythias,
in speaking yesterday Of the edict from
Rome prohiling members of that
church from becoming or remaing
members Of the Odd Fellows, Knights
of Pythias and Sons Of Temperance,
said:
Il joined the Knights of Pythias
about five years ago. At that time the
church in America, while not encour-
aging its members to join such orders,
did not prohibit them from doing so,
and l do not intend to leave the
order / am consistent Catholic.
am conversant with and believe in
the doctrines ofmy church. The Or
der teachers nothing contrary to those
doctrines. The Knights Of Pythias and
kindred orders are founded upon the
principles which Christ came upon
earth to teach-charity, benevolence
and fraternity. Men 60 into them for
the purpose Of mutual elevation and
for the protection of their families. No
nan can be Christian or true be-
lever in his God who fails to make all
the protection in his power for his fam
lily or to exert himself toward alleviat-
ing suffering and elevation in his race.
These orders do great good in the
way of charity and the relief of distress
among their members. Their secrets
consist merely of measures to designate
the sheep from the goats and to pre-
vent imposture. There is nothing in
the ritual or obligations in the
Knights of Pythias which would in any
way interfere with any mans religious
belief. Therefore, repeat that / in
tend to stand by the order and think
that few of the Catholic members will
leave t.''-Baltimore Ne,rs.

REVIEW OF IRON TRADE.

Cleveland, O., June 27.-The Iron Trade Review says today: The advance in iron and steel is gaining momentum every week, and while there is no concealment of the fear that things may be moving too rapidly for the health of the trade, everybody seems to be seriously trying to hold the market down. With their product engaged from sixty days to six months ahead and inquiries and orders steadily growing, the mills and steel works are swinging along toward a con- dition that now lacks only a few ele- ments of boom.
 The advance in steel rails from $22 to S24, eastern mill, decided on at New York last week, has already been followed by buying Much more is known to hinge on the story that the next two months will tell as to the crops. The prospects in this direction are much more f1atterlng with every week. In primary markets the past week has uniformly brought in- creased strength. Not only is the entire standard Bessemer product of Lake Su- perior mines for 1895 sold. but non-Besse- mer ores of good record are in such de- mand that 10 cents and Is cents ad- vances have been made on the limited store yet available on the 1895 product. Tn pig iron the marking up of prices north and south has scarcely checked buying, but tended to keep the big north ,ern furnaces at least nearer home. Bes- semer pig has gone to $13.50 at Pitts burg. Steel billets continue their upward march Sales for the third quarter were made at $20 and $20.50 at Pittsburg. and a spot delivery sale is reported at $20.s0.

THE GOVERNMENT SUSTAINED.
Chautemp's Declaration as to the Recall of
 Monteit Sustained.

Paris, June 27.-The chamber of depu- ties today debated the credit asked for by the government for the expenses of the African mission led by Commandant Montrit. The mission was sent out by M. Delcasse, when he was minister of the colonies, with money that had been voted for other purposes. In the debate today M. Delcasse maintained that the mission vas a necessity.
 M. Paul Doumer, radical republican, and M. Georges jCochery, republican. characterized M. Delcasse's conduct as a breach of official integrity and declared that he had shown disdain for parlia- ment. The chamber, they added ought to refuse to grant the credit.
 M Andre Castelin, revisionist republi- can, proposed that the matter be referred to a committee of inquiry.
 M Chautemps, minister of the colo nies, explained why he had recalled Com mandant Monteit.
 Prime Minister Ribot demanded a vote approving M. Chautemps declaration, but the money having been spent 1t was necessary to honor Frances engage ments and vote the supplementary amounts remaining unpaid.
 A vote on the credit was proposed. M. Casteline's proposal to refer the matter to a committee was rejected and the chamber then voted approval of M ChautempS' statement.
