Following is the money plank OF the
platform as adopted by the sub-commit.
Gee and upon which three hours was al.
lowed for debate before the convention:
Recognizing that the money question is
paramount TO all others at the present
time, We invite attention to the fact that
the Federal Constitution names silver
and gold together as the money metals OF
the United States, and that the first coin
age law passed by Congress under the
constitution made the silver dollar the
unit OF value and admitted gold to free
coinage at ratio measured by the silver
dollar unit
We declare that the act of 1873, demon
etizing silver without the knowledge or
approval of the American people, has re-
suited in the appreciation of gold and a
corresponding fall in the price OF com
modities produced by the people; heavy
increase in the burden of taxation and OF
all debts, public and private; the enrich
ment otthe money-lending class at home
and abroad; prostration of industry and
impoverishment OF the people.
We are unslterably opposed to the sin
gle gold standard which has locked fast
the prosperity of an industrial people in
the paralysis of hard times. Gold mono
metallism is British policy and its adop-
ton has brought other nations into fnau-

NOT IDENTIFIED YET.
Central Hotel Suicide Was Not Mrs.
Charles Meyers.
Police Receive Clue From Milford Witch
Will Be Looked Into.

The probabilities are that the young
woman who committed suicide at the
Central Hotel on election day will be
laid away unidentified. Mr.. Louis
Meyers of 80 Durfee, street accompanied
by one of the firm of Boyce Brothers, and
an officer from the knight street station,
went to Grace Church cemetery yesterday
afternoon and viewed the body of the
unknown. After doing SO be said the re-
mains were not those OF his brother
Charles wife, although there was a
marked resemblance.
The police have but one more clue to
the identity of the unknown, and that is
from Milford, Mass. Yesterday Chief Of
Police Reuben X. Baker received a letter
from q well known resident of that place,
stating that q woman answering the de-
scriptfon of the dead woman with a
young man had been located at that town
for some time and had been conducting q
shooting gallery. The date OF their dis
appearance from Milford corresponds
with the date OF the woman's arrival in
Providence. This seems TO De promis-
ing clue, as it may explain why the
young women had among her effects so
many articles from SO many different
parts of the country.

THE STTUA TION IN ARMENIA.

Late advices from Eastern Turkey are
to the effect that the action of the United
States Government In demanding the pro-
lection Of its subjects has evidently had
its effect, az on February ~ the Turkish
government sent word to some of its
provinces that the Americans there were
to he provided with squad of soldiers
to protect them from the still murderous
and plundering Kurds "In spite of
this" writer states, "the conditions in
some localities, especially at Bitlis and
Ezeroum, are still unsettled and severe.
The road between the two places is
blocked with snow and the distress in
and around the cities Is very great. 1t is
reported that 1000 persons have been killed
in all, in the Bitlis province, and that at
least 1000 persons have been forced into
Islamism."
"From Ezeroum, all sorts OF reports are
coming" says a correspondent. "The
fast of 'Ramazan' is always a nasty
time, and of course 1t Is all the more so
now. All confidence Is gone. The Vail
and Shakir Pasha continue to keep a care
full watch. The emigration movement is
taking on large proportions. About 1000
have gone from this city to Russia. The
whole population is searching for means
to fee. Even n safety is established emf
grafton or continuation OF assistance must
be the only means of saving thousands
from starving. There are between 1900
and 20 600 persons in destitute condi-
tion in this district with no hope OF bet
tering their condition by remaining"
As an illustration of the destitution OF
the people, the translation of letter is
included in letter from Eastern Turkey
II Is as follows:

the Armenian, says: "The Turk stand,
