NEH YORK STATE DOUBTFUL.
Another 'Irrepressible Conflict in the Shape
Of the Silver Question
The Mckinley Managers and Wal Street
are Getting Much Worried Ov
he Present Situation.

New YORK, June 30-The correspond
ent of the Commercial Advertiser, a
recognized gold Mckinley organ, thus
wires from Cleveland, Mark Hanna's
home:
"The Mckinley managers have al
ready received enough advices from
districts infected with the silver craze
to give them considerable concern.
The free coinage people claim that
they will carry Ohio, Indiana, Illinois
and nearly every state west of the
Mississippi and south Of the Ohio
Indeed, last night I heard bets offered
that New Jersey and New York will be
found in the doubtful column. I have
talked with several of the Mckinley
managers within the past a hours and
they do not disguise the fact that they
are much worried over the situation.
Much as they wish to keep the tariff
to the front, they are every day i'm
pressed with the idea that another 'ir-
repressible conflict is upon them in the
shape Of the silver question. Advices
are received from the middle states
and the far west that show only too
plainly which way the tide is running.
While democrats like Isaac Wormser
in New York are coming over to the re-
publican campaign, nearly ten times as
many republicans in the west are for
saking the faith of their fathers and
going over to the silver people, bag and
baggage Some of McKinley's mana
gers, we're they to divulge the contents
of their daily mail could a tale unfold
that would make make even Wall street
open its eyes in amazement."

party to which We belong, and the
genius and integrity of our people,
have always demanded this, and will
ever maintain it. The dollar paid to
the farmer, the wage Garner and the
pensiOner must continue forever equal
in purchasing and debt paying power
to the dollar paid to any government
creditor.
"The platform adopted by the re-
publican national convention has re-
ceived my careful consideration and
has my unqualified approval. 1t is
matter of qualification to me, as 1 am
sure it must be to you, and to republi-
cans everywhere, and to all our peo-
pie, that the expressions of its declara-
ton Of principles are so direct, clear
and emphatic, They are too plain and
positive to leave any chance for doubt
or question as to their purpose and
meaning. But you will not expect me
to discuss its provisions at length or in
any detail at this time. 1t will, how
ever, be my duty and pleasure at some
future time to make to you and through
you to the great party you represent, a
more formal acceptance of the nomi-
nation rendered me.
"No one could be more profoundly
grateful than l for manifestations Of
public confidence of which you have so
eloquently spoken. 1t shall be my
aim to attest this appreciation by an
unsparing devotion to what I esteem
the best interests of the people, and in
this work I ask the counsel and sup
port of you, gentlemen, and of every
other friend of the country.
''The generous expressionswith which
you, sir, convey the official notice of
my nomination, are highly appreciated,
and as fully reciprocated, and thank
you and your associates Of the notifca-
ton committee and the great party
and convention at whose instance you
come for the high and exceptional dis
tinetion bestowed upon me.n
Following the formal speeches, H. H.
Smith, secretary of the notification
committee, presented a gavel made
from a log taken from the cabin in
which Lincoln lived.

Her Early Life and Training
Her Writings.

HARTFORD, Conn, July Mrs. Har-
riet Beecher Stowe, the gifted authoress
of "Uncle Toms Cabin" and other
works of worldwide reputation, died
at her home, No. 70 Forest street, at
noon to-day without Fegaining con-
seriousness. She passed away as though
in deep sleep. Those by her bedside
at the time we're her son, her two
daughters, her married sister and her
husband, and DR.. Edward Hooker, her
nephew, who was also her medical at
tendant. and other relatives.
Mrs. Stoves mRlady of many years
continuance, a mental trouble, took an
acute form on Friday, when congestion
of the brain, with partial paralysis, ap-
peared. During Friday, Saturday and
Sunday Mrs. Stowe was about the
house, but suffering very much. Since
Monday morning she has been con-
fined to her bed and yesterday after
noon became unconscious.
Mrs. Stove, until about seven years
ago, was in good health, although she
was frail bodily.
Harriet Elizabeth Beecher-Stowe, the
author of "Uncle Toms Cabin" was
born at Litchheld, Conn, June IA, 1912.
She was the daughter of Lyman Beech
er and Roxana Foote. She taught in
the school of her sister Catherine at
Hartford, Conn, for several years, and
was married in 1886 to Prof. Calvin E.
Stowe, then of Lane theological semi
nary. She first appeared before the
public as an author in 1849, at which
time she published the "Mayflower; or
Sketches of the Descendants of the
Pilgrims" book of tales and sketches
of New England life, which has been
republished several times since in this
country and England. In 1857 she was
asked to furnish a story to the Nation
al Era, an anti-slsVery Journal printed
in Washington. She commenced, ex-
pecting to complete her sketch in four
or five numbers; the story, however,
grew as she wrote, and extended in
weekly issues Of the paper from Janu-
airy ., 1851, to April 1, 1852. 1t excited
considerable interest during its serial
publication, but this did not forshadow
the immense sensation, which it pro-
duced when published 10 book form in
two volumes under the title Of "Uncle
Toms Cabin"

Insurgents to Blow Up Havana Cautiously
to Protect Friends.
New YORK, July Thomas Estrada
Palma, the Cuban delegate, yesterday
received from Cuba one of the circulars
which have been distributed in the city
of Havana by the insurgents, telling of
their intention of blowing the city to
pieces by the use of dynamite in the
cause of independence.
"It is not the intention Of the Cubans
to blowup the city of Havana at once
Mr.. Estrada Palmer said. "There are
too many good and loyal advocates of
our cause in Havana who might be an
initiated by a simultaneous blowing up
Of houses. Great care in respect to Gu
ban sympathizers will be employed.
ut is also intended to discriminate
il regard to American citizens and in
regard to the persons who are supposed
to be neutral. 1t is certain that the
first structures that will suffer will be
the public buildings that are now in
control of the Spanish authorities"

UNCLE slm's FINANCES.
The Deficit for the Year $4,000, 900 and
for Three Years $4,000, 600.

WASHINGTON, July 1.-The treasury
official statement issued Wednesday
shows that receipts from all sources
for the fiscal year 1896 approximate
1926, 100000; and the expenditures for
the like period, $685. 100000, making the
deficit for the fiscal year, s25,5OOOOO
For 1895 the deficit was 100000 and
for 1894, 100000, so that the deficit
fol the past three years aggregates
Sl37, 100000, For the month of June
which closed Tuesday, the receipts have
been S26,5OO,CO0 and the expenditures
$4,000 goo, making an excess of receipts
of 51,500,000. Because Of the heavy in
terest payments in July, the payment
of the sugar bounty claims, which will
be commenced this month, and also be-
cause of appropriations made available
bY congress, it is estimated that the
deficit for July win foot up nearly
100000.

A REPLY TO WHITNEY.
Senator Morgan Discusses International
Eimetallism.


WASHINGTON, June a. Senator John
I. Morgan, Of Alabama, has addressed
an open letter on the silver question
to William c. Whitney in response to
the latter communication of June q.
After saying that Mr.. Whitney's letter
is entitled to the sincere respect which
it receives from the whole people, Mr.
Morgan discusses somewhat the cues
ton of an international agreement and
says: at seems to be q very vague and
distant hope that Great Britain will
ever yield to European or American
states a real participation in her finan-
cial policy by treaty agreements" Sen
atOr Morgan assumes that no American
statesman can present such a plan as
our government will ever consent to
adopt or can agree to, under the con-
stitutiOn, and makes the friendly ohal.
lenge to Mr. Whitney to state the plan
switch you would advise the democracy
to accept as basis, at least, for an in
ternatiOnal agreement" The speaker
concludes as follows: "As you seem to
agree with the democracy of the south
and west that silver should be fully re,
monetized, 1 respectfully submit to
your candid judgment whether this
restoration of the rights of our people
is not more justly to be expected from
the action and power of our own gov
eminent, that has never failed in such
an effort, than from Great Britain or
any combination of European powers,
who will do nothing of the kind, except
upon the inducement of some selfish
motive"

Johnson, an Ohio delegate to the Chi

currency question, which he would
like to see adopted by the democratic

johnson proposes "a paper currency of
CONVENIENT denominations issued d.

zens, without the Intervention of
banks, and made directly interchange
able for its bonds thus avoiding all
need for the boarding Of any kind of
metal and supplying to the people a

that will automatically contract or ex-

increased rather than relaxed, despite
the apparent friendliness Of Venezue-

prisoner. A prominent member of the

SILVER GAINS IN NEW YORK.

The Agitation Threatens to OvershadOw
Parties and Obliterate Partisan Lines.
New YORK, July 2.-Portentous and
menanoing, a political specter has risen
in the rural counties of this state,
threatening to oVershadOw parties and
conditions and obliterate partisan lines
from the Pennsylvania boundary to the
st. Lawrence, and from Lake Erie to
the Hudson. The farmers have taken
to the study of finance and have come
to the logical conclusion that if the
free coinage of silver be undertaken at
ratio Of sixteen to one the price of
their products will double and good
times will come to stay. In many Of
the counties there is no actual organ
izatiOn of the friends of free silver.
Even without organization, however,
the free silver farmers knocked the
sound money men off their feet in the
recent democratic primaries.

No Hope for the sIiners.

WnKESBARBE, Pa, June 30.-The sit

gone no change since midnight. The
reseuers continue to work under great
difficulties. The squeeze is now gen

loud rumbliDg noise of falling rocks in
distant parts Of the mine can be heard.
At five o'clock there was another slight
fall, which drove the men back. Double
timbering is now being resorted to. It
is very slow and tedious work, and
even under the most favorable condi-
tions, the workers could not hope to
clear a gsngWay to where the entombed
men are In less than a month.
