GORDON REPUDIAfES BRYAN
Prominent Virginia Democrat Will
Vote for Mckinley.
Former Chairman of State Central
Himself to Loss and Dishonor.

Fredericksburg, Va. Aug. 22.-IIop. Bs.sil
u. Gordon, ex-State senator and ex-chaE-
man OF the State Democratic committee,
in 1883, when Mckinney defeated Malone
for governor, is out in a letter in the Free
Lance Of today, giving his reasons for sup
porting and voting for Mckinley and Ho-
bart in the coming Presidential election.
The following is u part OF Gordon's letter:
Sandy, Rappahannock county, Va, Aug.
10, 1S96.-To the Free Lance, Fredericks-
-GrS, Va: You ask me to give myreasOns
for seyerinS the associations Of lifetime
and voting with the party which have al
ways opposed to the best of my ability.
l do not see that my vote can be a matter
of the slightest public interest, but If only
for your single benefit am glad to answer
you.
shall vote for Mckinley because he rep
rescnts the money standard of every fully
civilized nation in the world, as against
q dwindling handful of mongolian and
mopgrel nations who still cling to the
cheaper metal. Those who wish to dis
solve our partnership with Europe and en-
ter into an Asiauc alliance, with a boy
orator at our head, should at least show
cause for Sc doing.
The whole fabric rests on the assumption
that the United States single-handed can lift
q vast unknown and enormously increasing
mass of silver TO twice the value placed upon
1t by the consensus OF the world. Whatever
the silver men may admit among themselves
they always claim In public that the new
dollar viii be worth 100 cents. What are
our chances of accomplishing such feat?
Those whose lives are given 10 the study OF
monetary laws are unanimous in declaring
II impossible.
Bankers have no monopoly of financial
knowledge, but it is reasonable to presume
that they know their business as wella the
farmer knows his. AS for their motives,
the farmers have known seemed no less
alive to their own interests, and no less alert
to protect them. Is the experiment being
tried successfully In any country? Mona
ton on the face of the earth dares give free
and unlimited coinage to silver. Mexico
comes nearest, and every schoolboy knows
that the Mexican dollar can be bought for 50
cents.
Mr. Bryan's speech In New York was free
from false rhetoric and dignified in tone,
but when 1t reached the critical point he
assumption He is firmly convinced that
we can raise silver double its double
va,ue" He believes that the silver dol
lar will be worth as much as the gold dol
lar" He does not deny the panic throu gh
which we must pass In any event. He
does not deny that silver should be raised
even to 95ecents 1t would permanently
exclude gold and fix dishonored cur
rency upon us.
| He admits overwhelming disaster in case
/. of failure, and rests his hope of success
upon his firm conviction that he will
\ succeed. When an untrled experiment Is
submitted to me Offering doubtful advant-
| ages in case of success snd admitted loss
and tishonor in case OF failure. I cannot
| long hesitate as to how my vote shall be
cast. Respectfully. 80 ..'.''',S

with steam-steering gear, electric lights,
fans and ventiataTs. and has accomMo:ia-
tions for 100 first-elass passengers. Her

breadth of beam and 1 feet depth ofhoId.
The vessel is propelled by two vertical
triple-expansion engines of / 400 horse
power which drives twin sore VS. The sur

| by centrifugal pumps Of a capacity of l co.
coo gallons per hour, and there are three

Alice and Allie stood in the dock The
former Wore an old, battered straw hat

hair pulling, face-scratching and sailor

Allie was 10 blame and accordingly as

CRUELTY TO HORSES.

Sl1 1 IL HUNS
Humane Officer Rabbit and Frank Berry,
deternined-lookin dapper little man,
representing the District Express Company,
charged James Brown, a colored driver, with
cruelty to animals. During the heated spell
Browns horses suffered considerably. On
tins particular day Brown went TO the Dis
trict Express Company and hired team.
lie had done so several times before and
they gave him a team with horse which
did not seem the best sort. That is ac-
coriing TO Brown.
Mr.. Berry claims the horse was in good
shape when 1t left the stable.
Montgomery C. Danforth was the first
witness, and Lawyer Darlington made him
keep within the confines of absolute fact.
He testified that when the horse was
returned to.the stable 1t was covered with
large weits and was completely exhausted.
Soinuch SO that whenunhauessedan and taken
to the stall it fell down and was unable to
rise for two days.
at was frightful TO behold" concluded
the witness.
"was there any blood?'' asked the at
to,ney and Danforth admitted there was not.
Mr.. Berry was called.
"You know this young NAM" said Mr..
Darlington. blandly indicating Brown.
THAT fellow" queried Berry.
Not fellow" contended the attorney.
"He IS as good n gentleman as either you
orL His character is above reproach; now,
isu't it?''
II know nothing about him." was the
answer. Mr.. Berry proceeded to tell abo,nt
the awful condition of the horse, which, he
says, is yet sick.
James Z. Loveday, Charles Pfcil and Will
lam Edwards corroboratcd the witnesses
for the prosecution, and Mr.. Shanks. Mr.
Gilbert and Mr. Craig gave evidence favor
able to Brown, who admitted hitting the
horse, but not hard. Judge Scott fined
Brown SIS, and new trial was asked.
A DIsoRDERLY TRIO.
William Hall, Charles Ford and Louis
Occken were ali ranged before his honor
on the charge OF disoTderly conduct. Hall
is white boy, Ford co!ored and Occken
an Italian scissors grinder. Pairolmen Ow-
ems and Foley arrested the tito.
II pusha my cart along yesterday, when
thata boy hita me with stone," said the
ScisScrs STiuucI
Where did lie hit you?" asked Judge
Scott
Ina da back. sawa him throwa da
stone from behind"
Hall sioutly denied that he had even
thought of casting a stone at the Italian.
Ford said he was not within half block
when the stone was thrown, but when the
crowd gathered he admitted he came for
ward with rock in each hand t. use in
event of an emergency.
"Why, there is no evidence against these
toys," said the court, as he prepared to
dismiss the case. The probability Of a
failure stared the two policemen IN the face.
"Yes. but they are not charged with
throwing stones. said Officer Foley; "they
were disorderly."
The disorderiiness appeared to have
been bu, a slight passage of words. almost
asloud as when two patrolmen meet at the
end OF their respective beats and discuss
the silver question.
Hall and Ford had been out all night on
collateral, while the Italian who was hi
slept in the station house. Tho three wert
| dismissed.

THE PACE HE KEPT UP.

George Haines, the driver, said he did
not drive faster than eight miles. He
stopped at Sixth, Seventh, aud Ninth streets
To deliver papers. There Were other World
wagons and a Journal wagon, he sail, and
he thought perhaps the officer had made II
mistake.
1t became question OF veracity between
officer and defendant, and the former
stated that be was positive Haines was
the man.
In summing up the case Judge Scott
said: 1T there is any city where there
rs less -Ifeed -orfast driving it is in Wash
ington. In fact. there is no call Og neces-
sity here to go out of walk. The streets
are wider and better paved than in any
other city in the world.
There is hardly any occasion to go rap
idly, except in three instances-in case OF
emergency, fire or newspaper work. lean
understand how the papers will want to
give the news to the public, fresh and with
out delay. Special trains are now used for
that purpose, but the law must not he VIC
lated. 1 want to havesno doubt, and must
have a clear case, and win discharge Mr..
Haines."
The court commended the officers visi-
lance, and as the latter passed out he IT,
marked; II will have him here again In a
couple OF days"
