POLITICAL POINTERS.

Kansas City star: Bourke Cochran
makes a mistake which is common
among eastern political orators in assum
ing that there is no honesty or purpose
among the advocates Of free silver.
Detroit Tribune: 1t is to be observed
that quite number OF insolyent con.
Germs are taking advantage OF the oppor-
tnnity to blame the financial agitation
for the sins Of rotten business methods.
Atlanta Constitution: Bimetallism
insures staple prices and is a safeguard
10 business. Under its operations, when
ever one metal becomes too dear for
money it ceases to circulate as money.
This increases the demand for the other
metal and puts an end, temporarily. to
the demand for the metal that has be-
come too dear for money uses.
Cincinnati Enquirer; Ii this man Brv.
an, from Nebraska, IS the failure that
the ultra gold bugs say he is-if, As an
anonymous writer who has found access
to prominent print says, he is shallow
man, without intellectual resources, with
one speech on finance and one on popu-
iistic organizes, and a mounting derna-
gogue-why not turn this man Mckinley
OF Ohio loose on him?
Philadelphia Inquirer: What the .il
yer men seem to want is more money.
This being the case, why should they not
agitate for a ratio OF TO /? You can
make one ounce OF silver equal to tne
ounce Of gold just ~ easily az you can
make Ii ounces OF silver equal 10 one
ounce Of gold. And then inst think OF
the initiation that would come at tine
ratio OF to /. Just look at the grand
collection OF coins We would have. By
all means let us have to /.
Spokesman-l:ewiew: There can be
no snch thing as 5O-cert dollar. and all
that talk about that myth is thrown out
to enable the gold owners to continue to
exact 200 cent dollar from the peopIe.

LATE NEWS BY WIRE
Great Bfitain's Position On OPENING
the Indian MINIS.
STATEMENT MADE TO GERMANY
Willing to Consider a Scheme Of
Currency Reform.
CERZON's ANNOUNCEMENT

LONDON, February 2s.--The under sec
rotary for the foreign office. Mar. Gaorge N.
Curzon, replying to Mr.. w. Codifngton,
the house of commons today, confirmed
statement made in the German reichstag
on February % by the German mlnister
for foreign affairs. Baron Won BtebersteiH,
regarding the reopening Of the Indian minis.
Upon that occasion Baron Won Rieber-
stein said that the German ambassador at
London. Count Won Halzfelttt, had been
directed to inform Great Britain that the
chancellor was about to announce In the
reichStag that 1t regarded the opening of
the Indian minis as a necessary precedent
to International negotiations regarding BIZ
metallism, and that it understood that the
reopening of the mints was not anticipated
within measurable period. The minister
also added that the government Of Great
Britain had acquiesced in this statement.
Mr.. CurZon. however, explained that the
Marquis of Salisbury's reply to Count Won
EalZfeldt was confined to a statement Of
the facts then existing, and was not intend
ed to apply to possible intentions in the
future.
The statement made by the first lord of
the treasury, Mr.. A J. Balfour. In the
house of commons, on February 90. was,
Mr. Curzon added. an expression of the
Views of the government on the subject.
Mr.. Balfour then said 1t was not true that
Germany had approached Great Britain
with a view to the conclusion of a none
tary agreement The British government,
he also remarked, was willing to consider
the matter of reopening the Indian r,ints
II such action could be made part OF a
satisfactory scheme Of currency reform.

MISS OvERMAN,s CONFESSION.
An Astounding Story Told With Many
Smiles.

An Astounding Story Told With Many
Smiles.
SAN FRANCISCO, February 28-The
Rev. DR.. Brown. after two months silence,
has given his defense to the public. The
story Is the most startling which has yet
been told in the scandal. It. was related
as confession to the ecclesiastical court
last night by Miss Martha Overman, who
is the first in the sensational case. to con-
fess. herself a bleckmailer.
Miss Overman's manner was striking
She spoke SO quietly that even the mem
bers Of the council were forced to draw for
ward, until their chairs formed q small
semi-circle on the platform. The woman
spoke deliberately. weaving a remarkable
story, logically and clearly. She confessed
that she was a blackmailer and tried to be-
a thief, and she gave the information with
a smile.
She confessed that she plotted the de-
struction of the man whose hospitality
she now enjoys. She declared that to saw: save
herself from work and the possible hard
ships of poverty she conspired with Mrs
Mary A Davidson to ruin the character
of the Rev. DR.. Brown and to blacken her
own. She asserted that she approached
the representatives of q morning news
paper with hope Of tempting them to
blackmaii the accused pastor.
She drew her recital to dramatic climax
by asserting, with the smile which never
left her face, that she wrote the letters
which picture her own moral and physical
ruin and placed the cause of her deep dis
tress at the door of the Rev. Dr. Brown
Asserting all this, she denied that there
had ever been the slightest impropriety in
her relations with the man against whom
she plotted so shrewdly.
