Pawtucket tribune. (Pawtucket, R.I.) 1890-189?, 1895-06-13

At the opening Of the afternoon session
Senator Harris, the ante-bellum governor
of Tennessee, was given an enthusiastic
reception. He said that the convention
was called by the Central Bimetallie
league Of Shelby county, q strictly non
partian organization, composed of Demo
Gratis, Republicans and Populists. Its
doors were thrown open to every Ameri
can citizen who honestly believed In the
propriety the sdvisability and the neces.
sity Of the rehabilitation Of silver.
Their doctrine was hmetallism, and by
bimetallism they meant the free and un-
limited coinage f all the gold and all the
silver produced In the country. They hold,
as to this convention, that a Democrat can
he present and participate in Its delibera.
tions without impairins In the least de-
gree his allegiance to his party orgapiza.
tiop, aud the Same Is true Of Republicans
and Populists, whose party fealty cannot
be impeached because Of their opinion In
advocacy Of free silver coinage.

REBEL CLAIMS.
Most of the Battles Have Resulted
in Their Favor.

p1I NEW YORK, 4R, Aug Aug; 1e.-President
party, said today that distinguished
Cuban, now in this city on a secre,
mission, had received a letter dated
Aug. from his brother, one of the
best-known artists in Cuba, describing
an engagement that had taken place
on that day. The letter in part says.
Gen. Gomez, with 500 Cubans, at
tackled convoy of Spanish troops go-
ing from Guiamaro to Port au Primes
on Aug. 4. The Spaniards, under Isaiz.
numbered 1000 and were well equipped.
The fighting was hot and heavy and
at one time the patriots almost suc>
ceeded in capturi ing the convoy. A
Spanish major and another officer were
killed; also seventy soldiers. The
Cuban loss was trifiing."
The letter, like all advices received
from Cuba, is very indefinite as to
details. 1t is reiterated every day at
Cuban headquarters that the lack OF
detailed news is owing to the strict
censorship exercised by the Spanish
authorities. over the mail and tele-
graph lines. President Palma and his
colleagues profess to believe, however,
that the enga gements that have SO
far taken place have been mostly in
favor of their side. They point to the
fact that Gen. Campos, in asking for
more troops, practically indorses their
belief,

ONE HUNDRED KILLED.
Massacre of Bulgarian MOham-
medans Confirmed.

LONDON, Aug. 1.-THE Times
prints a dispatch from Sofia confirm
ing the report of the attack of 500 Bull
garians on the Mohammedan village
of Dospal, across the Turkish frontier,
before dawn last Saturday. The later
reports received show that 800 houses
were burned and 100 persons killed. A
dynamite bomb was thrown from a
mosque into a crowd of refugees. The
Times says that the village lies in the
widest recesses of the Rhodope mount
aims, southeast of Batak. It is In
habited by Mohammedan Bulgarians,
brave and warlike fanatics, who hated
the Christian Bulgarians more than
the Turks, and are therefore likely to
take terrible revenge. 1t is believed
that the attack was arranged by the
Macedonian committee in order to pro-
woke fresh atrocities, and thus incense
Europe against Turkey. The Bulgari-
an government has explained to the
porte, in reply to the protest of that
government, the difficulty of watching
the frontier, because a large concentra-
ton of troops would be regarded with
suspicion by Turkey.

MoRToN,s OBJECT LESSON.
The Farmer Pays SiIverites in
White Metal

White Metal
WASHINGTON, Aug. 16.-Secretary
Morton, of the department of agri-
culture, gave what he regarded as an
object lesson to the employees of his de-
partment yesterday afternoon He
heard arguments by many of his sub
ordinates in favor of silver Yester-
day being the semi-monthly payday,
he ordered the paymaster of the de-
partment to pay $1,000 in silver coin,
this money weighing sixty pounds.
The silver coin was paid to all the en-
ployes about the agricultural depart
ment, to messengers, and well-known
siiverites in various parts of the
department. Unless Mr. Morton
receives a petition to the contrary,
it is believed silver will be paid out
again and again to the men who are
known to favor it as currency. There
was a good deal of kicking among the
employees, and good many have in
dicated to the paymaSter that they
want paper money on their next pay
day. One of the men, who was given
several pounds of silver to carry home
last evening, remarked today: 81
think Secretary Morton is very unfair
in what he terms his object lesson. He
might as well pay us in nicllelS or in
copper pennies, and if we protest that
it is not convenient form of money
to carry, he might say by that protest
we are not in favor of copper and
nickel coin. AS a matter of fact, if
man were paid say 900 in gold coin,
which he would be expected to carry
home with i'm, he would protest as
strongly as we protest at being paid
our salary ia silver dollars"

Stovewood Petrifed.

CHAMBERLAIN, S. D., Aug. 10
Government Surveyor Meyer and party
have returned here after several
weeks work on the Lower Brule In
dian reservation. They report that
while in the field they discovered a
whole tree that was III excellent state
of petrifaction. The wood was cut
into stove wood lengths, and looked
so natural that the men who found it
started to gather it for fuel A num-
Der of fine samples have been brought
to town. Some of the party have re-
turned to the spot with the intention of
securing the stump and remainder of
the tree. An Indian who lived near by
informed the finders that the tree was
cut in 1857, and had never since been
moleSted.
Several petrified snails, frogs and
snakes were found in the vicinity of
the petrified stove wood.

WANT HORIZONTAL BILL.
Morrison Favored by SiIverites
for President.

WASHINGTON, Aug. 16.-Among the
delegates to the Democratic silver con-
vention, which adjourned here yester-
day, there is a strong undercurrent of
sentiment in favor of the nomination
of William r. Morrison, of Illinois, for
the presidency by the Democratic con-
vention in 1896. This sentiment is due
to the general belief that Morrison
stands well enough with the so-called
sound money menl in the party to in
sire their cordial support, while 1t is
believed that the old gentleman is that
Kind of a Democrat that he would not
exercise his executive prerogatfve in
the form of a veto against any meas
ure looking to a settlement of the cur
rency question which might receive the
approval of his own party. In other
words, the silver men believe that with
Morrison in the presidential chair they
would be sure of the approval of any
financial scheme which they might be
able to pass through both houses For
this reason Morrison is likely to re-
ceiye the support of the silver men in
the convention of 1896.
