SILVER NOT DEFEATED.
Vice Chairman Stevens Says the Cause Was
Handicapped.

Vice Chairman Stevens Says the Cause Was
Handicapped.
Chicago, November 5.-I. N. Stevens,
Woe chairman of tho national silver
party, gives out the following letter:
If the final results will show that Mr..
Bryan Is defeated it docs not demon
strate that free silver is beaten by any
means. The extreme and impolitic planks
of the Chicago platform lost hundreds OF
thousands nf votes among conservative
business mon who were really in favor of
free coinage. Another factor in this con-
test which has greatly injured US has
been the fact that four years ago the
Democratio party went into power with
President and both houses Of Congress,
Legislative acts of majority of that
party In Congress have been too often
against the interests of tho people.
1.-The American people want a change
and If Mr.. Bryan is defeated 1t is largely
to the fact that they at this time were
not willing to trust to another Demo-
cratic administration, however strong its
professions IN the interests of the people.
The silver question will not down until
justly settled by the restoration of free
coinage at the ratio of 16 to l. 1t Is to
Dc hoped that next time it is submitted
to the people 1t will not be handicapped

which the friends of free coinage radical
iy differ in opinion. Mir. Bryan has
made the most marvellous canvass ever
undertaken on the American continent
and throughout has shown himself TO be

GOLD DEMOCRACY NO MORE.

Chairman Bynum Says No Effort Will
Be Made to Keep Up Organization.
Chicago. November 5.-The "Sound
Money Democracy" is no more. 1t has
fulfilled It's mission ard is dead. W. D.
Bynum, chairman OF the National COM
mittee, admitted today that no further
efforts would be made to organize the
party or keep it alive. 1t failed to poll
its per cent in Illinois. and has no ex-
istenoe as party organization in this
state. 1t could not put candidate on
any official ballot except by petition.
In some Southern states, where negro
domination is a more important local
issue, the party may have a lingerin G
lfe. Late returns from Kentucky, Ten
nessee and Louisiana may show that
the required percentage for repr esenta-
tion on the official ballot YVES polled
there and an effort may be made to keep
alive the party organization for local
purposes.
''We have accom- plished our mission, !"
said Chairman Bynum, in discussing the
issue. "The principle for which we con-
tended has bsen vindicated. There is
nothing more to be done or said. In this
state we failed to poll the 2 per cent
necessary to representation on the official
ballot, so the party organization falls to
the ground. l believe no efforts will be
made to reorganize or keep up the GEN.
trail committee or state committee. We
probably will never call another conven-
ton.

Good Man to Have Out of the way.

Good Man to Have Out of the Way.
Chicago, November 5.-Gov. Altgeld
gave out statement addressed to Demo-
Gratis in which he says:
A Though defeated, desire to thank
you for the loyal supportssyou have given
me and l congratulate you ON the heroic
fight you have Just made. Considering
that only six months ago our party lay
prostrate. it had been betrayed IN the
hands of stock jobbers and monopolists
by President Cleveland; it had been
robbed OF everything Democratic except
the name which stood for great prin-
ciple, If loaded with deadheads, is now
cut from the domination of trusts and
syndicates, il has repudiated the men
who betrayed 1t and again proclaimed
Democratic principles and espoused the
cause of humanity.
1t was confronted by everything that
money could buy-that Doodle could de-
bauoh or fear OF starvation could ooer ce.
Itlswas confronted by combination Of
forces such as never has been united
before and could probably never be
united again, and worse still, the time
was too short to educate the pu blic.
While we are defeated, our party is more
vigorous and in better condition general
ly than it has been for third OF CEN
tuIy.
We have dug the grave of the British
gold standard. One more campaign of
education Will forever bury the palsied
form of that curse which has blig hted
prosperity and the happiness of man
kind.
/ may assume that the administration
will be controlled by the men who have
been so prominent in securing this cleo
ton.
I believe that the next general election
will reverse the verdict of yesterday,
the return Of prosperity will not come
as promised. 1t was the great common
people of America and not the rich who
saved our institutions in 1861, and it
will devolve on the great common peo-
pie of this country to save free govern
ment in 1900.

CAN'T HOLD THE GOLD.
United States Sub Treasures Haven't
Storage Room for What is Pouring In.

Washington, November 5.-More gold
is pouring into the several sub.treasury
Offices than the officials have storage for,
or legal tender to give in exchange.
This is notably the case in Boston. This
gold has been brought out Of safe de-
posit vaults by the owners who have been
paying storage charges upon it.
Baltimore and New York had large de-
posits Of gold. How much was deposited
at New York could not be stated OF the
treasury as the usual daily telegram had
not been received when the department
closed. Nothing was heard FROM west
ern points.

HEALTH is EXCELLENT.
Mckinley Stood Strain Of Campaign
Well.
WITH MRS. M'KINLEY WILL LEAVE
CANTON FOR SHORT WHILE.

President Elect Did More Work in Past
Six Months Than Any Public Man Ever
Accomplished in that Time-Made $50
Speeches and Greeted Half Million
People.
Canton, Ohio. November 5.-Major
Mckinley retired at 10 last night and
this morning looked fresher than for
weeks. Mrs. Mckinley is still i'll and
confined to her bed, but Is improving in
health. The telegraph companies are
compelled to keep six or eight operators
at work in order to handle the large
number of kilograms of congratulation
which are pouring in upon MAJOR Mo-
Kinley. EveryEstate in the country has
sent through its citizens messages of
greeting to the Republican candidate,
Many abroad are cabling congratula-
tions.
: Major Mckinley, yielding to the pres.
sure of friends and physician, has decided
to absent himself from Canton for time
and will, with Mrs. Mckinley, leave for
Cleveland within few days. Mrs. Nc
Kinley's physician thinks change of air
and scene will benefit her. That Is one
reason why Major Mckinley is going to
leave Canton so soon.
Major Mckinley 1T is claimed, has done
more work in the last six months than
any public man in the country or in
the world. He has not only made $50
speeches since his nomination, but has
greeted more than q half million people,
and talked with and shaken hands with
half that many. In addition to this he
has been in touch with political leaders
throughout the country and had to meet,
consider and solve many of the difficult
pro blems devoted by the campaign.
He has been compelled to live In the
public view, and for five months has
scarcely had an hour between in the
morning and 1U at night which hs could
call his own. Major MoKinley's health Ia
excellent, but his friends heed-
full of the great task which con-
fronts him, think he ought to have a
season of rest and so he will spend a week
or so quietly with Col. NJ. Z. Herrick,
who was on his staff, at the latter's
home in Cleveland. He has no engages
ments and expects to control his time
absolutely.

NOT PLEASANT PROSPECT.

Sound Money Forces May Not Control
Senat After All.
New York, November 5.-The status of
the United States Senate on the 4th of
March next is still matter of doubt.
The Indications are the Republicans will
be compelled to seek recruits from thos Q
of their number who Joined the free
silver forces last spring, or an alliance
with the sound money Democrats to ac-
complish legislation affecting either the
financial or tariff subjects.
The Senate In the 55th Congress will
probably stand as follows: Gold Repub-
icans. 80; Gold Democrats, s; Silver Re-
pnlioans. Q; Silver Democrats, 26; Popu-
lists, 9; total. 80. According to the lat
est returns the next House will be COM
posed of 213 Republicans, 2 Sound Money
Democrats; 118 Democrats, "a Populists,
Silver Republicans and fusionists.

Candidate Bryan Congratulates the Presi-

Lincoln, Nsb., November Sat S.25
Senator Jones telegraphed Mr.. Bryan
that he had given up the fight. The dis
patch was handed to Mr.. Bryan at his
residence. "You may say" said Mr..
Bryan to the United Associated Press
reporter, "that the eleoJion of MoKin-
ley is conceded. will issue statement
tonight"
Immediately after. receiving Mr.. Jones's
telegram Mr.. Bryan wrote tho following
dispatch:
"Hon. VIM. Mckinley. Canton, Ohio:
"Senator Jones has just informed me
that the returns indicate your election,
and hasten to extend my oongratnla-
tions. We have submitted the issues to
the American people and their will 10

took MoKinley's e election as a blow to the
cause of bf-metallism, he responded !:

that the strain was over.

RIGHT KIND OF TALK FROM THE
POPOCRATIC CANDIDATE.

Shows Boy Orator in Rather Favorable
Light Compared With Incendiary Ut
terances of Jones, Altgeld, Blackburn
g. Co.-No Reason to Change Standing
Yesterday.
The Feature of last nights election
news was the fact that Chairman Jones
has come to realizing sense of what
the people accomplished on Tuesday and
his despatch to Mr.. Bryan informing him
that MoKinley's election was conceded.
1t seems to have been practically settled
since yesterday that Kentucky is Repub-
lican by small margin which removes
it from the doubtful column. Some of
the small states are close but there
seoms to be no reason to change the
standing Of the electoral vote published
in yesterdays PRESS, which gives Mr..
Mckinley 277, and Mr.. Bryan ITO votes
in the college.
Late this morning despatch was re-
oeived indicating that Tennessee may
after all, be counted for Mckinley, but
whether this claim is well founded or
not, it is impossible 10 say.
Later returns from the state itself do
not seem to justify these claims. A de-
spatch received just before going to
press Indicates that the Republicans win
in Wyoming by narrow margin. This
if true, would increase MoKinley's
electoral vote by three. making it 2so,
to 1877 for Bryan.
