WASHINGTON, March % As there has

Governor Mckinley on the silver ques-

that Governor McKinley's attitude Is ac
curately expressed by the latest pronounce.
ment of the Republican party. which in
its silver plank in the platform adopted
in Minneapolis June 10, 1892 said:
'"rhe American people, from tradition
and interest, favor binetallism. and the
Republican party demands the use of
both gold and silver as standard money
with such restrictions and under such
provisions to be determined by legislation,
as will sucure the maintenance of the
parity of values of the two metals; that
the purchasing and debt paying power
of the dollar, whether of silver, gold or
paper shall be at all times equal
''Tte interests of the producers of the
country-its farmers and the working
men-demand that every dollar paper or
coin. issued by the government shall be
as good as any other. We commend the
wise and patriotic steps already taken by
our government to secure an International
conference to adopt such measures rs will
insure parity of value between gold and
silver for use as money throughout the
world"

VIII BE Asked by Cable from the Con-
suls Nearest the scene-sp.in Explains
Her Delay I'm the Alliance Matter-AIc-
Kinley's Position ON silver Omciaily
Stated.
WASHINGTON, March est was said at
the White House yesterday afternoon that
the telegram from Governor Morrill,, of
Kansas, urging the president to take ac-
tive measures ut once for the protection
and release OF cx-United States Consul
Waller, reported to have been unjustly
imprisoned by the French government in
Madagascar under the sentence Of a court
martial, had not vet been received by the
president. The state department has had
no confirmation of the report from United
States Consul Wetter, at Tamataye, nor
from Mr.. Campbell, our consul ut Maui
ritius. which is the nearest cable point to
Madagascar. 1t is probable that the gov
crnor's message may cause the state de-
partmcnt to cable to one Of these consuls
for an account of the affair, instead Of
wairinn until a report comes to hand
through the mails from this remote point
which though it might be sufficient in an
ordinary case would hardly meet the re-
quirements of a case involving the i'm
prIsonment of an American citizen.
Morrtll's Course Rather Unuscsl.
Governor Morrilis course in addressing
himself directly TO the president in such
matter is said to be unusual, but may
perhaps be based upon the precedent set
by the state department il calling upon
the governor Of Louisiana and the gov
crnor of Colorado recently to protect citi-
zens Of foreign countries within their re.
spective states. There seems to be an i'm
preston. based upon letters alleged to
have been written by Mr.. Waller to
friends in this country as well as to the
state department., renouncing his Amer
lean citizenship, that he has lost this cit
izenship.
No such L. tier r ecsived.
No such letters have been received at
the state department, and if there was
any such communication in a private let
ter it would carry little weight. Waller
has the reputation of being a KEEN alert
business man. He was an excellent con-
sular officer and it is inconceivable to the
department officials that he would sur
render voluntarily his American citizen
ship.
Spain Explains i.e- Delay.
The state department has received from
Spain a satisfactory explanation of the de-
lay in replying t0Secretary Gresham's de-
mand for disavowal of the Alliance Incl.
dent. Secretary Gresham now feels sure
that the reply will be here without any
further delay than is necessary for Spain
to make the justifiable investigation. He
is also confident that the reply, when re-
ceived, will be an adequate compliance
with his demands.
