LONDON. April 14.-A correspondent in
Italy describes an unexpected visit which
Emperor William, in the uniform of a
British admiral. paid to the British cruiser
Astrea at Syracuse on April T. After leav-
ing the Astrea the Emperor also visited the
italian flagship Francesca Morosini After
wards he had the commanders Of both ships
to luncheon on board the yacht Hohen-
zollern. On this occasion he took the En-
glish captain alone around his yacht, show
ing him every part, and especially the
water-tight door which he himself had in
vented. This correspondent thinks that the
above episode is significant of Emperor Will
lam's desire to be on friendly terms with
England.
A Rome correspondent of the Daily News
says that he learns positively that as a re-
suit Of the meeting between Emperor Will
liam and King Humbert at Venice 1t has
been decided to postpone the renewal Of the
dreibund until May, 1897

SENATOR BLACKBURN FIRM.

Senator Blackburn, of Kentucky, Mon
day dictated to Post reporter the follow
ing statement for publication:
My attention is being daily called t.
statements made in the newspapers all
over the country of compromises, either
agreed to or pending, between the gold
standard advocates and those who think
with me in Kentucky. These misrepre-
sensations are so numerous and come from
so many different quarters that desire to
answer once for all.
No compromise or adjustment has ever
been offered from the gold men to me- |
surely have never suggested one to them
| never saw my way clear to compromise
a principle, and in this case have no de-
sire to make the experiment. In the com
ing State convention in Kentucky the is
sue between the gold monometallsts and
my people will be definitely and finally
settled if my counsels shall prevail With
me there is no middle ground
Il sincerely hope that the democratic
convention in Kentucky will send a dele

more important than any personal ambi-
ton of my own

Ti.E MKT iIDISE.

The democratic congressional campaign
committee has ~esumGd business ut the old
stand i'll Washington The chairman,
Senator Faulkner, has sent out Il circular
letter in which he urges an earnest and
aggre Ssivc campaign and hold out the hofe
OF democratic majority in the next Con-
grcSS. Thi, is all very we'll but the first
thing requisite for the accomplishment of
any such result is for the democratic par
ty to come together The faircst Of pros
poets can be married if there is to be no
harmony.
1t is true as gospel, Mr.. Faulkner says
i'll his circular, that the record Of the pres
cnt Congress is sufficient to condemn the
republican party. Yet if the record was
twice as dis@raccf full as it *, democrats
can have NJ hope if some of their leaders
will persist in keeping issues to the front
upon which the party is 50 widely divided
and threaten to bolt unless their ideas
and issues are sanctioned. They should
take one lesson, at least. from their politi-
cal opponents

THE CONVENTION SEASON.

The season Of political convention is
upon us, says the Baltimore SIM, hay
ing arrived somewhat earlier than usual
The politicians, being intensely inter
ested in arranging for the national con-
ventions to he held in Chicago and st.
Lonis, are impatient Of delay. They
want delegates chosen early so that
they may have plenty of time for their
little schemes and interesting combina-
TONS The republican national con-
vention will not be held till June Is
and the democratic convention not till
July /, but State conventions began to
he held weeks ago and Wednesday scv-
en- more were held. The silent bust
ness men of the country are, however,
taking more interest in the approach
ing contests than for many Years past
and may spoil the nice little plans of
the managers. While the politicians
were fighting chiefly for the spoils of
office. or for doctrines but remotely
connected with everyday affairs. bust
ness men took little part in the con
tests. But now that the silvertcs are
laboring with fanatical zeal to alter the
money standard and bring on general
disaster, the situation is changed
Everywhere the practical man is
watching to see which party and which
candidate will be for sound money.
Party lines will count for little when
