BENEDICT MAKES A THREAT
The Personal Friend of Mir Cleveland Says the Democratic Party Must Declare
 Against Greenbacks


 New York. Aug. 23.-E. c. Benedict, we'll known in Wall street and for many years identified with the Chicago Gas company, is. out with statement in which he announces that unless the dem ocratic party comes out squarely in fa- vor of the retirement of greenback cur rency he will vote against it and in ia vor of the party which does. The green back he declares to be valueless in time of need as a circulating medium and serves only as a pump to draw from the treasury. He said: Silver worth only 6215 cents is bad enough, but bad as 1t is, it is worth more than the greenback because it has some intrinsic value. To provide better currency it is necessary. first, to wipe out the worst forms in ex- istence and then put almost anything in their place."
