On His Way From San Antonio

ST. LOUIS, Dec. 30.-Justice David J.
Brewer, of the supreme court of the
United States, passed through St Louis
on his way from San Antonio, Texas,
where he visited a sick daughter.
The war talk does not seem to bother
Justice Brewer much, for when asked
yesterday if he thought there was any
danger of a war with Great Britain, he
replied: 81 don't see why there should
be. If a few level-headed men get to-

81 would not be surprised if Chief JUS

commission but l do not think he would
accept the position. His duties would
then be too great for any man.
"As to General Harrison. I do not
think he would accept position on the

candidate he would most probably want

''In my opinion Mckinley will enter
the convention with the most votes, but
do not mean by that enough to nomi-

convention, and the chances are that
they will compromise upon some one
who is favorable to both, and it would
not surprise me if that man were Al
lison."
"Why wouldn't Mckinley and Morton
compromise upon Reed?"
swell, l cannot say as regards that
Reed is now on trial, as it were. He has
a position that is difficult to fill, and the
next four months will either make or
break him. He is great man, but the
position he holds requires a great man to
fill it
81 suppose St. Louis expects to have a
great crowd here during the convention.
1 think it is a good thing to pass these
conventions around among the big cities,
and then let the candidates fight it out on

Mr. Brewer was told that Major War

Warner is a splendid man, and would do

they propose to live as they please and

The Three Great Bimetal1ie Organizz-

speedily follow.

be known as the American Bimetallic
Union. Its principal Office and gen.
era1 headquarters will be in Chicago,

ganizatlon to press the campaign of
education on behalf of bimetallism
with the utmost vigor in all parts of
the country.
A conference of pronounced silver
men will be held at Washington on
the 22d of January, when plan of &C
ton will be outlined, which, it is said,
will have an important bearing upon
the political events OF next year.

that they are responsible for the state

In fact make such an examination as
