BELMONT URRYING HOME.
Going to Chicago in the Interest of
Sound Money Advocates.

PARIS, June ga reporter Of the
United Press had an interview with
Hon. Perry Belmont at the railway sta
ton tonight as Belmont was starting
for Havre on his way to Chicago, where
he goes to attend the National Demo-
cratic Convention. The full text of the
Democratic platform adopted at the
New York State Convention has not yet
been received here, and therefore Mr.
Belmont said its precise scope could not
be accurately appreciated. If, however,
as he believed the platform declared,
that the New York Democracy protested
against any further purchase of silver
by the Treasury and against silver
coinage otherwise than on the basis of
an international agreement, and that
the Democracy will do everything pos
sible to obtain and secure a fixed inter-
national ratio between the two metals,
and If it has urged the cancellation of
greenbacks and treasury notes hereafter

YELLOW FEVER IN CUBA.
Alarming Reports Received From
Sagua la Grande.

WASHINGTON, June 26-The most
alarming report from Cuba with re-
spect to yellow fever comes from Sagua
la Grande where the Marine Hospital
service is advised by it's last report that
there are forty-one cases and four
deaths. 1t is expected that within a
very short time the fever will become
epidemic, and if it does not become viru-
lent all previous experiences will be set
aside. The department has, however,
received no adviceS to the effect that
cholera has appeared anywhere on the
island
The present war and it's relation to the
sanitary condition of Cuba is referred
to in the last annual report of Surgeon
General Wyman, and the statements
then made represent the conditions of
this summer only in more aggravated
form. On this subject General Wyman
then said the insurrection had interfered
to a great extent in the transmission of
exact information from the disturbed
provinces, and the normal condition of
health in the island had been largely
modified by the presence of great body
of non-immune Spanish soldiers These
persons have taken the disease and
added to the natural number of cases
annually prevalent in that island The
difficulties experienced last summer will
be met again with this year.
Accurate knowledge as to the number
of troops stricken with the disease is
denied by the Spanish Government. The
reports from Havana last year showed a
total of ,593 cases and mortality of
30 per cent.
This summer special precautions will
be taken to prevent the Introduction
from Cuba into the United States of
yellow fever. Each of the four revenue
cutters patroling the Florida coast car
ries sanitary inspectors to intercept
fishing smacks and other vessels COM
ing direct from Cuba with no intent to
enter legally any port of entry, and also
for the uprpose of intercepting any re-
turning filibustering expedition or refu-
gee and seeking to land surreptitously.
Sanitary inspectors either have been or
will be stationed permanently in Ha-
vana and Santiago, and such inspectors

SILVER DEMOCRATS.
The Active Campaign Will be In
augurated on Tuesday.

CHICAGO, June 26.-The active cam
paign of the various silver elements
preparatory to the Democratic conven-
tion will be inaugurated on Tues
day next. when the Bimetallic Club as
sembles at the Sherman House. The
large clubroom of the hotel and six con-
ference rooms have been engaged for
the meeting, which promises to be
largely attended The Democratic COM
mitteemen of a number of Western and
Southern States have wired for accom-
modations for themselves and friends.
This will not be the only roundup of
the white metal delgates. A week from
Sunday the members of the Executive
Committee of the American Bimetallic
Union will assemble in this city pre-
paratory to a convention on the follow
ing day. The union is a non-partisan
organization, it's purpose being to pro-
mote sentiment favorable to silver by
the abundant distribution of literature
and the providing of speakers for public
meetings.
National Secretary George E. Bowen
said this morning: THE object of the
meeting is to look over the ground on
the eve of the assembling of the Dem
|ocratic convention. and see what can be
accomplished in the way of a union of
the bimetallic forces, in order that the
free silver strength of the country may
if possible, be concentrated on one can
didate."
H. F. Bartine. editor OF the National
Bimetallist," added that from hundreds
of letters which were being received
daily from all parts of the country, IT
was apparent that the Populist party
was anxious that the Democrats should
take neutral ground in the matter OF
candidates, and nominate a ticket upon
a strictly silver platform which would
be acceptable to the forces of the Peo-
pies party 1T is apparent from this
correspondence" he said that if Sen
ator Teller should be nominated he will
receive the unqualified Endorsement and
support of the Populists. AS to any
other candidate cannot say so much. >"
Between these two meetings there will
be yet another A week from tomorrow
the National Executive Committee of
the Silver party will open headquarters
at one of the leading hotels AS in the
other case, the purpose of the meeting
is to assist in rallying and concentrat-
ing the silver delegates to the end that
a straddling platform may be avoided
and clean-cut declaration in favor of
the white metal adopted All three
committees will act independently but
harmoniously

NEW YORK, June 26-R. G. Dun &
Co. will say tomorrow in their weekly
review of trade:
Failures for the week have been 217
in the United States, against 256 last
year, and "A in Canada, against % last
year.
The monetary outlook is not yet clear
to some The strength shown in recent
conventions by advocates of silver coin
age, and expectation that all the ele-
ments favoring that policy may yet be
concentrated, induce them to await the
settlement. The uncertainty retards i'm
provement, Notwithstanding the more
widely prevalent feeling that monetary
action of the st. Louis Convention will
be sustained by the people, But many
mills have waited as long as they can
with safety, and signatures have been
given by enough cotton mills of Fall
River to ensure temporary stoppa ge
1T is said, the nature of which is now
under discussion in conference with the
Providence manufacturers. Wooden
mills are active without concert, but
fourteen are mentioned in dispatches as
having closed this week
There is no similar movement in other
industries, although the period of sum-
mer closing is at hand in many of them,
and important controversies of iron pud-
dlers and other hands make it likely
that the annual stoppage in that indus
Try may last longer than usual
The weakness in wheat, which has de-
clined 2.1O cents, and of cotton, which
IS an eighth lower for spot, though less
for futures, have full explanation in de-
.fdedly good crop prospects.
1t may be doubted whether the boot
and shoe industry has ever been in bet
ter shape on the whole, though manu-
facturerS complain that an advance in
price is necessary which dealers are
very reluctant to pay Leather is
slightly lower for various kinds con-
trolled by the leather company. and at
Chicago packer hides are steady, while
country have advanced a shade with
small receipts.
Copper is held at 11.75 cents. Lead is
hardening at 800 cents. and American
tin plates are well sold at 10 cents below
foreign.
The great combinations which the
Iron Age wisely reasons to cause dis
astrously low prices hereafter still con-
troll the markets both for material and
finished products of iron and steel.
though 1t is reported that lower prices
will soon be made for coke, owing to bet
ter utilization of products. and for nails,
owing to heavy decrease in consumption.
The billet pool reports no large sales,
but middlemen or outsiders continue to
undersell It, The new demand for fin
ished products is very light, and while
x,.,1a e
them are cut to secure business Besse-
nier is shade lower at 1926 at Pitts
burg.
The textile manufacturers, as has been
said, are generally devising curtailment
of production, and the only change in
prices is downward.

TRIPLE HANGING.
Three Murderers Executed at Canyon
City, Colorado.

CANYON CITY (Colo), June ga
triple execution occurred in the State
Fenitentiary tonight shortly after s
o clock, when William Holt, aged %;
Albert Noble, aged 80, and Deonocio
Romero, aged 3S, were led from their
cells in the execution hall to the death
chamber and were separately hanged
by the automatic device which has
proven so successful in past hangings
According to law, no one but the
Warden, Prison Surgeon and a few au-
thorized witnesses are permitted to be
present at such times.
Each of the condemned men in turn
was ushered into the death chamber
and seated upon a chair placed upon
the trap. After cap and moose are ad-
justed the automatic device is set in
motion, and in due time the trap is
sprung.
The crime for which these men were
executed was the murder of a watch
man in Trinidad named Solomon,
which occurred one night I'M November
1898 while the trio were in the act of
rcbbing gambling saloon. Before the
robbers had completed their job Solo
mon appeared and sought to arrest
them. They were well armed, and with
out moments hesitation shot the
officer down and escaped. They were
afterwards captured by a Sheriff's
posse, tried, convicted and sentenced
Young Holt, who was led by his com
panions into this scheme had sought
for some leniency, but the Board Of
Pardons, after reviewing the case, re-
fused the petition. The plot to rob the
gambling house was originated by Mrs.
Martinez, who wanted money with
which to defend her son Leandro. who
was then under arrest for the murder
CT one Charles Allen. Leandro Mar
tinez is now serving a life term in the
pen for the crime The woman was

presented to the Treasury and paid in
gold, that utterance will, Mr.. Belmont
is confident, command the approval of
an overwhelming majority of the voters
in every Eastern State.
Mr.. Belmont said he had known quite
well during his years in Congress a
great many of the Southern Democrats
who are pressing for the immediate free
coinage of silver at the ratio of 16 to 1,
and had also met them four years ago at
Chicago when they contributed to the
enominat ton of President Cleveland Mr.
Belmont did not believe that the South
ern Democrats now wished or would
tolerate disunion at Chicago Of the
National Democracy.
THE State Of New York" continued
he, 'is now committed by both of its
party organizations to international BIZ
metalliSm and a worldwide bimetallic
par. Democratic leaders, such as Til
den and Manning, have favored it in the
past, and the Southern Democracy also
The Governor of the Bank of France
told me a few days ago that France cam
not and will not consent to a ratio of
III to l. France prefers 151a to l. If
the National Democracy will at Chicago
remain united Mckinley can be beaten
in November and fixed ratio between
silver and gold put within range of prac-
tical effort. Another Mckinley tariff
can be prevented, the issue of more Gov
ernment bonds made unnecessary, the
national credit upheld, our exports in
creased and the wages of workingmen
North and South not be reduced to a
fifty-cent dollar. 1t cannot but be that
rather than have disunion in the Ma
tional Democracy, as IN 1860, the South
ern Democrats, with whom New York
cooperated in the 1892 election of Mr..
Cleveland, will consent to a reasonable
plan whereby free silver coinage can
be deferred until a practical effort is
made by a Democratic President and
Democratic Congress to obtain a fixed
international bimetallic ratio
