UTTERLY FALLACIOUS.
SENATOR MILLS TALKS OF oBJEC-
TIoNS TO HIS BILL.
An Individual Never Pays Interest
if He Can Help It-Government
Should Employ the Same Business
Principle.

WASHINGTON, Dec. 6.-Senator
Mills attention was called today to the
fact that objection had been made to
the part of his bill directing the secre-
tary of the treasury to pay out silver
when the reserve is below 500, 600 900,
viz: That is would put gold at a
premium.
This reasoning" he replied, sis ut
terly fallacious. That result can take
place only when the volume of silver
or paper is so increased as to increase
prices in this country, when gold would
be exported, but no more manipulation
of silver or paper now in circulation
can change prices of products. If the
treasury refuses gold for export, the
exporter must do as exporters do, buy
bills of exchange. If the treasury notes
are all paid or bonded, the result would
be the same. Exporters would pay
premiums on gold when exported, but
the gold standard would remain I'M
changed.
When" he continued, 1.-THE gold re-
serve is over $780, 600 the treasury
is in easy circumstances and may re-
deem it notes in either gold or silver
as it may be desired by the holder of
it's notes. When the reserve is under
$100, 100000 the cautionary signal is up
and the secretary should protect the
government by paying in standard sill
yer coins and stop a run that may be
made to embarrass the treasury and
compel it to sell bonds to foreign and
domestic capitalists seeking investment
for idle capital"
Explaining other provisions of the
bill, Mr.. Mills said he had provided for
the coinage of the silver bullion in the
treasury into fractional coin rather
than into dollars because in that shape
it would be more convenient, and that
he had provided for the issuance of
treasury notes in case of a temporary
deficiency III the revenues because the
bonds bear interest and the notes do
not.
"An individual" he said, never pays
interest if he can get money without
1T. The governnr should employ the
same business principle

AFTER MANY YEARS.
Father and Daughter Reunited in
Guthrie, Ok.

Father and Daughter Reunited In
Guthrie, Ok.
KANSAS CITY, Dec. GA special to
the Journal from Guthrie. Okla, says:
A very pathetic meeting of father
and daughter who had been parted
eighteen years, the father all that time
believing the daughter dead, occurred
at the Santa Fe depot in this city to-
day, when Miss Carrie N. Keiffer of
San Francisco stepped from, the train
into the arms of her father, w. H.
Keiffer Of Norman. Okla.
Nineteen years ago Mr.. Keiffer, be-
ing left "a widower. had placed his T.
year-old daughter in a convent at
Santa Barbara, and reading about a
year later an account of the destruc-
ton of the convent by fire, saw in the
published list of those who had per-
ished in the flames, the name of his
daughter.
He wrote for particulars. but never
received an arsw er, and so mourned
the daughter as dead, and years later
came to Kansas and from there to
Oklahoma, where he has fine farm
and home and children by his second
wife, nearly grown.
Miss Keiffer was not among the dead,
as published in the newspapers but
the Sisters took her to San Francisco,
where she became servant in one of
the institutions and has lived there
ever since She remembered her fatlk-
er's name and was always on a look
out to find him.

Mrs. White is concerned, according to
the following from the San Francisco
Examiner.
Mrs. White. the wife of the run
away lieutenant was very much in ear
nest when she said she was not mourn
ing for her erring husband.
She sat propped up in bed among
the pillows last night and reiterated
her assertion. She also stated that the
rumor to the effect that she was heart
broken was utterly false.
Z" DO look as if I were beartbro-
ken?' she said, laughing. Why the idea
is absurd. I have not worried in the
least over Mr.. Whites escapade. L
have not even lost a nights sleep over
the affair. 1t is not pleasing to have
people say / am grieving-grieving for
man who has deserted me for an
other woman. I loved my husband
once, or thought 1 did, but now-well,
now she said more slowly, I have no
other feeling for him but contempt
"'when he left me do not think he
intended to desert me. / think he was
lust going off for the night, else he
would have taken some of his clothes.
But he did not take a thing. All of his
personal effects are in my possession.
What will 1 do with them? Well, I
hardly know. 1 certainly will not send
them to him.

deliberation-I think 1 will give them

as I am able to get out I will at
tend to the matter. There is no use
delaying in such case as mine and
the sooner the divorce is granted the
better pleased I will be. I feel sorry
for Mr.. Whites people. He is very

ST. Lnuis Wants It.

ST. LOUIS, Dec. 6.-The Business
Mems league up to yesterday had
raised $4,000 in cash or guaranteed
pledges towards a fund for securing
the Republican National convention
for st. Louis A special meeting of the
league was held this afternoon, when
it was resolved to guarantee generally,
under the seal of the corporation, such
further amount as might be necessary
to secure the convention and properly
entertain the delegations. Plans were
submitted for projected alterations in
the exposition building so as TO furnish
a hall with $4,000 seats. Headquarters
and rooms were secured by wire at the
Arlington hotel, Washington, for a
special committee appointed with full
power to use the guarantee of the
Business Mems league, which is an in
corporated body and thoroughly re-
sponsible. This committee will arrive
in Washington at noon Sunday.

GREAT CATHEDRAL.
Chicago to Have Another Half u
Million Building.

CHICAGO, Dec. 6.-Bishop Nicholas
has been instructed by the Holy synod
of S.. Petersburg to build a great
cathedral in Chicago, to cost not less
than 100000. 1t is a part of the decree
that the sanctuary shall cover an
acre of ground; the architecture must
follow the established lines of the &C.
clesiastical forms of Russia; the gen
eral design shall reproduce the famous
st. VasiH of the Kremlin of Moscow; ;
the priest house shall be the home of
the head of the denomination in the
western world, and the diocese of
Alaska. and the Aleutian islands shall
be renamed to include this country
or a new see will be created.
This is the greatest mission work
ever undertaken by the synod. 1t was
advised by the bishop in a long report
to the body during his visit last sum-
mer to the car and the empires cap
itaL His exposition of the needs of
the thousands of Russians, Dalma-
tians, Roumanians, Servians, Bulgar-
ians and Cossacks and other Slavs
brought home for the first time the OPP
portunities of a vast field of growth
He argued that at least 100000 commu-
nicants of the creed were citizens in
the new country, with no religious
home worthy Of their mother church.
Harold Julius de Bosse the supervis-
ing architect in the cabinet of the
car, will direct the erection of the
cathedral and a Chicago architect will
draft the plans for submission to the
synod. His only instruction was to
equal in size and wealth any similar
edif1ce in the city with an underlined
ukase that nothing shall appear in it
except that prescribed by Greek archi-
tects.
Bishop Nicholas has said that his
royal highness has become the especial
patron of this enterprise. He promised
to subscribe from his personal reve-
nue. an abundant sum, a little guaran-
tee that his message to the Chicago
Russians was genuine.
1t is probable that some site in the
vicinity of Garfield park will be chosen
for the new church.

THE RING

CINCINNATI, Dec. Chilly Thompson,
who has taken the management of Den
yer Ed Smith, announces his willingness
to match him against any man in the
world. He laughs at Corbett presenting
the title of champion of the world to
held the title after his failure to accept
Joe Goddards challenge, losing it by de-
fault. Smith Immediately fought God
dard and defeated him, thus obtaining the
championship. Consequently Corbett
could not present what he did not own.
Then Goddard beat Maher in three rounds
and Fitzsimmons had already defeated
him, so Thompson says it is a farce for
the two men TO be conteSting for the
title. He says he will take on the winner
and in the meantime would arrange a
match between Denver Ed Smith and
jim Hall, Joe Jhoynsh or any, other
heavyweight in America, or would go to
England and take on Paddy Slavin, Peter
Jackson or Joe Smith.

A BURNING QUESTION.
Where and When Will the Republic
can Convention Be Held.


can Convention Be Held.
WASHINGTON, Dec. 6.-Active pre-
parations for the assembling on next
Tuesday of the Republican national
committee to select the time and place
Tor the national convention. are max
ing. The executive committee of
eleven members, meets on Monday
night, and the full committee will be
called to order by Chairman Carter at
II O'Clock on Tuesday in Arlington
hotel. Large delegations are expected
from Pittsburg. San Francisco, Chica-
go and St Louis. While these are the
main contestants, New York state will
have a delegation seeking the conven-
ton, with Saratoga as the convention
place.
san Francisco has been exerting
much activity and influence of late to
secure the convention. The main
points urged against going to the
coast are that the telegraph service
would not be sufficient, and the differ
ence of three hours time would be
detrimental to the afternoon press of
the east during the day session, and
the morning press during the night
sessions. Pirtsburg's advantages are
being urged with equal vigor Senator
Quay has an influential circle of friends

The most considerable delegation vet
here IS that representing the interest
Of Governor Mckinley. William NJ.
Hahn, national committeeman from
Ohio, and Major Charles Dick, ex-state
chairman, of Ohio, will be here soon.
Messrs. Joseph P. Smith, ex-Represen-
tat1ve Thompson, of Ohio, General Will
liam Osborne, of Boston, Hon. Powell
Clayton, of Arkansas, and other we'll
known men are here. The party make
no conceaiment of their purpose to look
after the interests of Governor McKin-
ley as the Ohio candidate for the presi-
dency. Mr. Smith, one of the most ac-
tive men of the delegation said: 1--WE
have no plan to submit, and are not
favoring one city as against another.
But the candidacy of Governor McISin-
ley is fully understood the country
over. and We are here, without any re-
quest from him, to look after Ohio's
choice. The state is absolutely united
and all talk Of division has passed
away
The national committee meetings will
be open when the claims OF the yari-
Gus cities are presented. After that
the committee will go into secret ses-
sion. The first business to be passed
on is the resolution of committeeman
Payne, of Wisconsin, for a change in
the basis of representation to the con-
vention. the proposed basis being pro-
portioned to the Republican vote cast

SAN FRANCISCO, Dec. 6.-Bishop
Nicholas, of the Greek church, SAYS
the announcement that he has been
instructed by the holy synod of st.
Petersburg to build in Chicago a great
cathedral costing not less than $780,
600, is mistake. Through an inter
prefer he said today:
Il have received no such instruc-
tons. The holy synod Of st. Peters
burg has taken no such action as in
dicated. When 1 was in Chicago I
authorized the priests there TO build a
church in the suburbs of Chicago but
instead of costing 100000 it will cost
$1,000. That sum will include the cost
of the lot and the church No member
of the royal family will become a
patron Of the church. A great cathe-
dral would be out of proportion to the
needs of the church in this country"
Bishop Nicholas said that he could
not estimate the exact number of be-
levers in the faith there are in the
United States. but would place it at
10000 In making his estimate he did
not include Alaska, which would swell
the number very largely. The congre-
cation in this city has several hundred
members. The bishop concluded bv
saying that he did not intend to leave
San Francisco.

A Very Important Decision of the
Appellate Court.


CHICAGO, Dec. 6.-The appellate
court has handed down an important
decision in the case Of Waldeck lodge,
Knights of Pythias, against the
Grand lodge of Illinois. This was
case where the lodge was suspended
because of it's using German transla-
ton of the ritual Of the order and re-
fusing to discontinue its use. They
asked for a writ of mandamus 10
compel the restoration of all its rights
and the communication of the pass
word.
Upon appearing before the lower
court Judge Brentano gave a decision
favorable to Waldeck lodge on every
point. From this the appeal was TAX
en-, resulting in the appellate court
handing down a decision reversing
Judge Brentano and remanding the
case with instructions to dismiss 1t.
AS it was generally understood that
this was test case, the action of the
fourteen other German lodges in Cbt-
cago is awaited with interest.
J. J. Brown, of Vandalia, grand
chancellor of Illinois, it is understood,
will now call upon these lodges either
to obey the law or be suspended.
