MITCHELL'S FLOP.
1t Causes Congressman Minor Much
Surprise.

Chicago, Aug. 21.-A local paper
Minor, congressman for the eighth
Wisconsin district, was in Chicago
yesterday. eff | had been struck
dumb" said Capt. Minor, it wouldn t
have surprised me more than did
Senator John l.. MitchelPs flop to free
silver. That flop has made me a heap
of trouble; it has put me in a trying
position with good many of the dem
Ocrats up in my district. 1t was so
sure that S~nator Mitchell would not
tramp off after free silver and the Ne
braska free trader and free silyerite
that I got into the habit of telling the
democrats to look at their junior SEN
ator and. follow his example as a
firm defender of the gold standard.
What gave me confidence in him?
I'll tell you. In the closing days Of
the session there was a pension hill,
in which 1 was much interested, which
we had pushed through the house. In
order that it might not fail in the SEN
ate | called on Col Mitchell to get his
aid. Both of us went to Senator Gal
Tiger of New Hampshire, who is chair
man of the committee on pensions,
and explained to him what we wanted
After promising cooperation he asked
me how l thought Wisconsin would
go next fall. l said, Leave it to SEN
ator Mitchell to say what the repub-
lican majority will be-
No. said Senator Gallinger. L
want your opinion; we will get his
later
Well, sir I said, you can put
Wisconsin down for $4,000 republican
majority
How is that, Mitchen? asked
Senator Gallinger. Mr. Minor has put
it too low; we shall. make it sub
unanimous for honest money
in Wisconsin. We are all for gold
standard in our state l shall not say
shall not vote for Mckinley, but l
do say that l shall not vote for free
silver. I can't stand that"

The call then continues:
In this grave crisis of our country
and our party, we earnestly ask the
cooperation Of all democrats of New
York who reject the Chicago plat

they should be paid in honest dollars
and that debts, public and private
should not be repudiated, but should
be scrupulously paid; all democrats
who would defeat the attack now sac

London, Aug. 24-Developments of
the troubles with Spain are followed
here with considerable interest. The
outbreak in the Philippine islands is
regarded as seriously increasing her
difficulties, and news Of the discovery
of conspiracy caused great excitement
in Madrid, where, it is stated, the
government is considering the advisa-
bility of promptly reinforcing the Span
ish garrisons. The object of the con-
spirators is to secure the independence
of the Philippine islands and a COM
mittee of refugees at Hong Kong is said
to have relations with the Cuban insur-
gents. The Spanish police are ex-
tremely active in towns throughout
the country in endeavOrs to get at the
bottom of the supposed republican plot
to cause an uprising by exciting the
masses who oppose departure of fur
Their troops for Cuba. Numerous ar
rests have been made.

Berlin, Aug. 23.-The Kreuz Zeitung
and semi-officiaI press join in de-
nouncing the emperor's military cab
met which exercises over his majesty
an influence beyond the constitution
a prerogatives, thus paralyzing the
constitutional rights and functions Of
ordinary ministers. The civil cabiet of
the emperor is also saddIed with a
share of the blame for similar reasons.
The true story of the retirement of
General Won Schellendorf has leaked
out. The emperor and his cabinet, it
appears, believed in a thorough reiuve-
nation of the army as we'll as of the
civil administration and it is due to
this that not only have all elderly and
experienced generals and officers of
the generals staff been gradually re-
placed by new and untried men, but
courts and all civil officers have sim
ilarly suffered. Ia the imperial court
eight judges have resigned within a
very short time, as Emperor William
would not allow any judge to remain
in office who was older than IS.
The health of Prince Bismarck is

the effect that the American syndicate
offered the Argentine Republic one
hundred and fifty millions in silver in
exchange for a hundred millions in
bonds payable in gold at 4 per cent.
interest, with half per cent. added as
a sinking fund The offer of the
Americans is said to be part of a
general plan by which Argentine is
seeking to go from paper to a specie
oasis The plan contemplates that
each new silver dollar shall take up
two of the paper dollars. 1t is said
that the market value Of Argentine
ger cent. gold bonds is such that the
transaction would prove a profitable
one for Americans, while its incl
dental effect would be to dispose of
considerable of the supply of surplus
silver of the United States.
