Says the Democratic Party Must Declare

for SiLycr.
NEW YORK, N. Y, July Ex-senator
George G. Vest of Missouri sailed on the
will remain abroad for his health for
several months. Senator Vest was guest
at the Hoffman House where a reporter
interviewed him yesterday. Vest had just
come from journey through the Western
cereal producing States, and he said that
he had never seen crops generally in such
condition, and everything so favorable TO
a harvest far above the average in quantity
and quality.
"Of course" he said, "the low price of
agricultural products detracts some from
the prospects, but we cannot tell what
prices will be. When wheat was up to SO
it looked as though the farmers were going
to be rewarded this fall but prices are now
in the COS and the prospects not so good
The Improvement In the iron and
steel and WOODEN trades has been rapid.
Wages have advanced and orders have
come in large numbers. All this means
that the calamity cries of our Republican
friends have been wasted. The Wilson
bill has been proved to be a practical
it will yield much larger revenue, but
whether sufficient to meet all of the ex-
penses OF the Government remains to be
seen. | would not say that it might not
be necessary to increase the revenue by
an additional impost on beer, spirits or
sugar, but that is contingency of the
future"
The Missouri Senator is in favor of free
silver, and has decided views on the SUBJ
ject. He said:
eff an attempt be made to commit the
Democratic National Convention to single
gold standard and succeeds, it will split the
party and cause the formation of a free sill
yer ticket. The people of the East have no
idea OF the strength of this sentiment in
the Western and Southern States. 1t will
be the main issue in 1896. The question
must be settled and it will not down until
it is settled.
The silver men do not demand an i'm
mediate approval OF free-coinage law,
and would be content with frank, hon
est expression committing the party to BIZ
metalllsm and a free use of silver as soon
as some practical measure could be for
mulated and enacted into law. Missouri
is strongly for free silver. The Democrats
will hold convention in August, and l
believe it will declare unanimously for free
coinage.
THE Presidential sentiment does not
point toward any one in particular in the
Democratic party. Cleveland will leave
the office with renown to himself and the
country. do not believe he would &C.

be offered him. which is unlikelyn

Mr.. Francis said in conclusion:
The crew will go out of training imme-
diately, in view of Fennell's injury. 1t is
quite out of the question that he will row
again this year. if ever. Neither of our
two starboard substitutes can properly fill
his place. The crew will probably sail for
home on the steamer st. Louis, which
leaves Southampton on July 81"
Mr.. Francis took the news of the defeat
to Mr. Courtney, the coach of the crew,
who is confined to his room. Mr.. Court

Eddie Chevalier, tho jockey who was hit-

happened while starting at the post, q

success of the business.

Many people wonder why it is that good
chorus singers don't climb higher in the
profession. The matter was recently ex-
planned by a representative of tho CAL
houn Opera company. He said: "You
see, lots of our chorus people are of for
eign extraction and their speech is some-
what broken, although it does not inter-
fere with their singing. They cannot
take better positions until the defect of
language is overcome. In selecting our
girls, we always reject those first who
are not really pretty, then from the pretty
ones we reject those who have not sweet
voices. In order to get 20 girls we some-
times have to examine 100; 80 of the 100
will not be sufficiently pretty, and of the
80 who possess the requisite good looks 30
will be rejected for lack of good voices.
In other words, about one-fifth of the
chorus girls possess both beauty and
talent, and it is this one-fifth we aim to
secure"

THE BANK PRESIDENT.

In his private Office in one of the city 8
busiest streets the president of bank sat
looking over some sheets of figures. 1t is
not usual for a banks president to do this
work, but since this banks trusted cashier
had absconded with portion of the bank s
assets fortnight since this president had
been exercising special vigilance over the
institutions affairs.
The president was looking little tired
and careworn. Devotion was telling upon
him. There were dark shadows beneath
his eyes, and his throat was bound about
with silken handkerchief. The early
fogs are trying to delicate throat, and
the president was suffering the effects of
an lncautiouS exposure to them.
He sat regarding the sheets of figures
very 1ntently. Then he looked out at the
window for long time. The clerks who
glanced at him through the little window
of his office-door thought him meditating
upon the banks affairs. In reality he was
considering the loss of one of pair of
sleeve links that had been present to him
from the banks employees.
eff l should have lost it last night" he
murmured. with sudden catch of the
breath. Then he dismissed the thought.
"If it should be found on the bluff he
said; that is not in itself q suspicious cir
cumstance. But | searched carefully this
morning. If it went down the crevasse-"
and he shivered slightly-.'the is nothing
to be seen from above and Benson alone
knew there is a way down there"
He resumed his study of the figures,
frowning slightly as he noted tendency
of the various columns to tot up to one
amount. The amount was sixty thou
sand. and he knew that result was not
obtainable on the columns themselves.
Gentlemen tc see you, sill" said an OBJ
sequious clerk. The gentlemen had fol-
lowed close upon the functionary's heels.
There were two of the banks directors. a
policeman and a short, thick-set man
whom the president did not know. The
clerk retired and the group stood silent for
an instant. No one could speak. The
president felt strange, aching pressure at
his sore throat. Then the short, thick set
man stepped forward and laid two articles
on the presidents desk. They were a gold
sleeve link and a broken lantern.
The president arose first and gazed from
one to the other of the company. Then
he covered his eyes with his hands and
with a sharp, raucous cry fell forward upon
the floor ADELINE KNAPP,

he eloquent stiffness of the slumbrous

the eloquent stiffness of the slumbrous
sea.
There was long swell on-slow, gentle,
steady, like the regular respiration OF a
drowsv giant. The frightening. lazy
waves Tapped alongside the great white
cruiser, carrying her forward, caressingly,
as she lay in their embrace, her engines
nearly stationary. The off-shore breeze
scarce served to sway the slender wreath
that curled from her smokestack and be-
vond the circle of the ships lights was
lost in the impenetrable blue OF the sur
rounding night.
Miles to starboard lay city, its hum OF
DAYTIME activity hushed to soft murmur
as it. too, slept beneath the stars. Only
here and there along the water front the
occasional fash from furnace was visible
in the darkness, and the muff1ed sound OF
some factory's engines reverberated on the
stiffness, the iron heart of commerce throb-
hing through the night. Southwark and
westward iourneyed the margeless sea.
The water glowed in a phosphorescent
wake at the ships stern, but seward, from
ont the black expanse, came no sound nor
pleam to indicate that the white cruiser,
Swinging a mere speck upon the sea, was
not the sole traveller over the watery waste.
Suddenly from the forward deck of the
cruiser a broad pathway of fierce white
Iipht shot out across the sea. 1t was the
ship's searchlight with which the officers
were experimenting. On went the beam,
illuminating the immediate surface OF the
