Chicago, Sept. 23.-The receding of
the silver wave has been followed by
a dcarth of contributions to the Bryan
campaign fund. and the Illinois silver
Democratic committee is in the dumps.
For a week or more the wheels have
been moving more slowly at the Sher-
man House headquarters, and many
callers do not hesitate to say that the
machine is running down. a lack of
grease-technically known as the
coin''--is largely accountable for the
defect.
Rumor had it, today, that the liter
airy bureau was temporarily suspend

keep the department running. f. j.
Quinn of Peoria, who has had charge
of the bureau. was missing from his
post of duty, and the tip went around
Of the beaureau, was missing from his
grip on more of the national COM
mittee's money for use in Illinois. even
the ordinary expenses of the state ma

Every leader connected with the
Democratic campaign in Illinois has a
bone to pick with National Chairman
Jones. lie Is extremely tHdTE ol SA

clashed with their opinion of how the
Illinois campaign should be run. Gov

is said that he is becoming heartily
weary of the Arkansas senator's polit-
zeal ideas.

The testimony of Freeman Cox anl
Dennis Harrington of Calais was
strongly against the Indians. 1t was
that while Cox and Harrington were on
their way to Pembroke about 1 O'Clock
in the afternoon they saw the canoe
containing the Indians and MacMon-

saw nor heard the Indians until about
in the evening. The men in the canoe,
We're then disputing.
MacMonagle told the Indians to land

The Indians then threatened to Kill

The story told by the Perry towns

ALL FAVOR SOUND MONEY.
American Bankers Association Says That Is
the Only Safe Policy.

ST Louis. Sept. 23.-At today's SEES
| sion of the annual conference OF th'
| American Bankers Association, vari-
ous delegates reported as to the genera
| condition of banking in their states
Nearly every speaker claimed that the
banking interests of his section were
IN snlendid condition Almost without
executions the speakers favored the
sound money policy as the safeguard
of banking institutions and the BUSH
ness interests of the country
In the course of his remarks John H.
Leathers of Louisville. said he believed
Kentucky would cast 1000 majority for
Mckinley.
r. w. Millais of Jackson, Miss, said
that in 1893 there was but one bank
failure in his state, and since then on
ly one more failure has been recorded.
Both failures We're the result of mis-
conduct.
Henry Y. Yales of Omaha, stated that
in the three years from 1892 to 1895 the
banks of Nebraska lost on deposits
nearly SIS 900, 900. He claimed that this
was due to depression in real estate,
low prices for crops and the unsettled
currency question.
The convention discussed the rule
abolishing restrictive endorsements.
The matter was referred to the eXecu-
tive council to report at the next meet
ing.
The convention engaged in a lengthy
discussion over the practice in differ
ent states of the payment of depositors'
rates. The recommendation was made
that the convention endeaVor to secure
a uniformity of practice in the matter.
The necessity of uniform laws gov
crning commercial paper was the next
subject with the question: What can
the American Bankers Association do
to bring various state laws into har?
mony?" The subject was debated at
considerabl length. and was finally re-
ferred to the executive council for such
action as it may deem proper to secure
the desired result.
