BAKERS STAND.
The Kansas Senator to Make
Speech
FavOring the Coinage of All
American Silver.
HE FIGURES 1T OUT
That In Ten Years This Will
Increase
HE FIGURES 1T OUT
The Circulating Medium Only
About $35O,OOO,OOO.

From the State Journals Special Correspondent
WASHINGTON, Jan. 2O.-Though Sena-
tor Baker has been classed by eastern
papers with the silver men and his votes
SO far this session have been with the
silver senators, he does not go to the ex-
treme some of them do in advocating
the claims of the white metal. AS his
proposed amendment to the silver sub
stitute for the bond bill indicates, he
favors the largest coinage of the Ameri-
eau product, but does not think it wise to
open our mints to the output of the
whole world.
In speaking of the silver question he
said he thought it was greatly exaggera-
ted by both sides. That neither the
astounding calamities which the gold
men predicted would flow from free
coinage, nor the unmixed blessings
which the silver men predicted.
"There is great exaggeration by both
sides," he said "The coinage of the
American product would not make bar
rem fields blossom nor, on the other hand,
cause decadence and decay. The total
product of the American mines is only
about $75.000.000 a year. Now about
half of this is used in the arts and for
fractional currency. That leaves $40,-
100000 as an increase to the volume of
the currency if you coin the whole prod
uct. 1t makes an increase in circulation
of about fifty cents per capita for the
whole country. 1t is preposterous TO pre-
sumo that such trif1ing increase in the
volume of the currency would either
bring disaster or unexampled prosperity.
Even if the coinage were kept up for ten
years and the circulation of money in
creased by the $3.50, 100000 which that
would make, no harm would result. That
is only an increase proportionate to the
natural increase in population.
"1t is folly, therefore, to contend that
harm can come of it, or that it is an in
hation of the currency. Besides silver
mines become exhausted. They are not
like fields which can be titled and re-
titled. When once thoroughly worked
they are useless ard the production ceases
in that place. 1t is impossible, therefore,
if the whole American product were
coined to enlarge the currency to dan
gerous point"
Senator Baker believes in the coinage
of the American product, and the total
exclusion of foreign silver or foreign sill
yer ore.
This is the ground which he will take
in speech which he will make in the
senate in support of the amendment to
the silver substitute to the house bond
bill. He has his speech prepared on this
line, and if he has the opportunity or
doesn't change his mind he will deliver
it while the bond bill is under discus
sion.

Former President of the Santa Fe
Held by Judge GrOsscup.
CHICAGO. Jan, 20.-In the United
States district court Judge Grosscup
handed down an opinion on the motion
to quash the indictments in the Santa Fe
alleged violations of the interstate COM
merce act
The indictments were upheld in part
and quashed in part. John A. Henley,
general traffic manager of the Santa Fe,
aud ex-President Rhinehart of the road
were adjudged to have been
properly indicted on two counts.
Those counts set forth that
from April to November, 1892. those
two officials violated the act by giving
bates and drawbacks and that on October
10 of that year they made the payment
The rebate as paid to Nelson Morris
but the Indictment as to Morris was
quashed on the ground that the rate was
a discrimination against shippers by the
railroad and Morris acceptance of the
rate in no wise made him guilty of dis
elimination.
Hanley and Rhinehart will not submit
without a stubborn fight and probably an
appeal to higher court The railroad
interests of the country will take the
general issue of the law to the courts of
last resort.

Mysterious TeIeGrnms Flying Rack and
Forth and War Fever BnrnIng.
ST LOUIS, Mo-, Jan 2O.-A special TO
the Republic from Tallahassee, Fla,
says: Sensational stories are afoat here.
Governor Mitchell at the request of the
war department in Washington has
ordered Adjutant General Houston to
see that the Florida militia
be placed in readiness to take
the field at moments notice. The gov
ernor, it is reported, will call the militia
out tomorrow. In the meantime the ad-
jutant general is quietly issuing orders.
Similar requests, it is reported, have been
sent to the governors of other southern
states. The story has become generally
known and is causing great excitement
throughout the south.
Gov Mitchell and Adjutant General
Houston were asked in regard to it, but
they refused to talk. General Houston
has been in his Office all day, and has
sent kilograms to six battalion command
ers in the state.
Major Turner, of Jacksonville, COM
mandlng the first Florida battalion. has
received several messages from the ad-
jutant general. The battalion command
ers at Pensacola and Tampa have also
received messages from General Hous-
ton during the day.
1t is stated as coming from the execu-
tive office that the Washington authori-
ties have reason to believe that a deal is
pending between Spain and Great Brit
ain for the sale OF Cuba to the latter, and
that the United States is preparing to
resist the transfer of the island, and that
the lying squadron is coming to Amer
lean waters TO be ready for the war with
the United States that will inevitably
follow the attempted cessiOn of Cuba.
Dispatches from various cities in Flor
ida report that the troops are gathering
and that the war fever is higher now
than the day after President CIeveland's
Venezuelan message.

HC Now woman suffrage RF0SKOenE
Is in Town Today.
Mrs Kate Addison, president of the
Kansas Equal Suffrage association was
In Topeka this afternoon on her way to
w Washington to attend the meeting of the
American Woman Suffrage association.
Mrs. Addison was entertained at the
rooms of DR.. Eva Harding where she was
surrounded by the prominent members of
the association in Topeka, and all of them
were talking.
She arrived at o'clock and left at a,
eating her dinner as she talked in the
back room of DR.. Harding's office.
Mrs. Addison is a very pleasant look
ing woman of perhaps thirty five
years of age. She is of medium
height, neither very stout nor very
small. Her hair is dark and her
eyes are what might be called light
Today she wore blue travelling dress
She makes no pretensions to being a
stylish woman. The pictures published
of her do not do her justice. She is bet
ter looking.
81 have been suffragist all my life,"
she said. "My father is d minister and
is a member of the Iowa state senate, in
which he is suffrage leader. l was
raised in the atmosphere"
Mrs Addison has lived in Eureka for
fourteen years.
"My husband just returned from
Brooklyn in time to let me go today"
she said. "Perhaps I ought not to say
it, but the fact is he is at home taking
care of the children.
II noticed recently that Mrs Lease is
reported as saying that she has gone
back on active suffrage work. You can
just deny that from me for I received a
letter from her from Minneapolis just
this morning in which she says she is
ready to work for suffrage in Kansas at
any time,"
Mrs. Addison, though new woman,
signs her name ''Katie." "That's my
name" she said, "and l propose to sign
it just that way. I was christened
Katie"
One of the principal subj ects dis
cussed today was the esta blishment of
monthly suffrage paper at Topeka 1t
will probably be edited by Mrs A. H.
Case and DR.. Harding. assisted by other
local suffragists.
Other women who will represent Kan
sas at the national meeting Mrs. Addison
is going to are Mra. Althea Briggs Stryk-

Polling of Railroad Trains Tells How the
Tide Runs
WASHINGTON, Jan. 20-"While out
west for the last week or so," remarked
Squire WooGman of the Chicago deIega-
ton, 1.-The thought occurred TO me that it
would be good idea to make poll of
the people / met on the trains on the
Cuban question. Before I finished my
self-appointed task, l interviewed 749
people from 80 different states and found
1856 favorable to the United States recog-
nizing the belligerency of Cuba Nine
declined TO answer my question; did
not think the government of the United
States would be justified in taking any
course.
alt strikes me that this was a pretty
fair reflection of sentiment in this coun-
try on the Cuban matter. Ali kinds aud
classes of people were talked with, mer-
chants, business men and farmers, and
they unanimously suggested strong meas
ures being resorted to which would have
done the heart of any Cuban sympathizer
good.
"My ennity against the Spaniards
grows out of an incident in my career
while in the navy, and lying at Cadiz.
There was little squabble in which l
became involved, and with true Castilian
courtesy, l was given a lick from behind
which laid me senseless. As long as |
live l will carry scar as a reminder of
that affair, and every time I think about
it, my blood boils at the treacherOus char
scter of the people who inflicted it"
