greeted with loud applause as he did so.
Senator John NJ. Palmer made an ex-
temporaneous speech on Democracy and
Money and got back in vigorous fashion
at the free silver Democrats for denounc-
ing him and his attitude on the money
question at the convention this morning.
Richard ". Knott. proprietor of the
Louisville Evening post, spoke at some
length on Currency and Commence.
His speech was an out and out declara-

He declared that at last. after thirteen
years of falsehood and chicaneTy, OF
compromise and makeshifts. of double
dealing and demagoguism, the two great
parties are face to face with the money
question. 1t is to be settled. he said, not
compromised. AS a Democrat he looked
hopefully toward the Democratic party,
which, he said, must rise to the stu
alton or perish.
1.-THE free coinage of silver, under the
present legal tender law, is an at
tempted reputation of half our debts.

surrender our position among first class
nations and place the United States en- a
commercial level with Mexico and China

Speaker Crisp has been telling the
people of this country that they could not
get rich by taxation. that a protective
tariff was robbery; that though legts-
lative act could alter prices, it could not
alter values.
s.He was right, and yet today in his
home in Georgia, Mr.. Crisp says the peo-
pie demand the free coinage Of silver at

Free coinage of silver and a protec-
tive tariff alike impugn the intelligence
of the American people. and it is only a
question Of time when they will reject
both absurdities.

There is every indication that Denver

BLIXT PLEADS GUILTY TO MUIR
DERING MISS GING.
fold About the First of the Year
Is Very Jocular When Talked To.

Minneapolis, May 4.-Claus Blixt today
pleaded guilty to the murder of Catherine
Cling. He was sent up for life.
Hayward expressed little surprise at
Rlixts change of plea or at the sentence.
THAT fellow IS pretty cute" he said,
''and has hypnotised the whole country.
l wish / could have a talk with him and
have somebody hidden in the room am
sure people would find out, then, that he
would never dare face me and say what
he has been telling. 1 ask nothing better
than that
AS to his own case, Hayward said he
had little hope of escaping the gallows.
He remarked. complacently, that he ex-
pected a funeral about the first of the
year. and jocularly called the attention OF
Sheriff Holmber, who stood near. to the
fact that he would have to manage the
execution.

THE recruits for these troops come
every year from Odessa by way Of
Suez, and it would take a year before
the Russians could put an army of
100,000 men in the field near Vladivo-
stock. Russia alone cannot subdue
Japan, in spite of her army of 500, 900
men and her many Cossacks. and Ger
many can help her only with fair
words, for the reichstag won't vote
money for a war in the east, seeing
that the only profit possible will fall
to Russia. France is wise enough to
feel much the same way. The hatred
felt by France and Germany against
England is not yet quite so strong as
that felt by each for the other John
Bull and Uncle Sam can afford to
stand by and say: Let the plucky
Japanese take all he can hold. He will
make an infinitely better use of it than
either China has done or Russia
can do"

San Francisco. May Al. L. Stewart, of
Philadelphia, a builder of gas works, has
arrived here with the view of building
extensive gas works in San Francisco. He
and his associates, he says, comprise
some of the leading men of Philadelphia
and New York. They purpose also to in

companies now in existence here charge.
He estimates that the new plant, with
that when this city consumed twenty mil

would reduce rates to IS cents per thou
