WASHINGTON, Sept. 16.-The letter

between gold and silver, is the subject
for much comment at Democratic head
quarters. Chairman Faulkner, in an
interview, alleged there has been a re-
Versal Of the policy of the treasury de-
partment in regard to the redemption
of silver dollars in gold. The feature
of the secretary's letter which has oc-
casioned the most comment is as fol-
lows:
1T is the duty of tn secretary of the
treasury and all other public officials to
execute in good faith the policy declared
by congress, and whenever he shall b.
satisfied that the silver dollar cannot be
kept equal in purchasing power with
the gold dollar, when such exchange is
demanded, it will be his duty to adopt
that course
Secretary Faulkner expresses his 're
gret that the secretary of the treasury
should have announced policy
which invites a depreciation Of
our currency and will at once
encourage the gold spectators
and money-lenders fthe country to ad- -
ditional raids upon our gold reserve
with a view of forcing the government
to continue issuing interest-be bearing
bonds to carry out the policy suggested
in the letter of the secretary of the
treasury. l shall not comment upon

the same purchasing power as the gold
dollar, but l cannot refuse to express
my absolute dissent from the policy
announced by Mr. Carlisle as the one
which will govern the treasury in ref
erence to redeeming silver certificates
and coined silver dollars in gold"
The senator quotes from letter re.
ceived by him from the secretary on
Aug. 26th last in the course of which he
says the department has never been
called upon to redeem silver dollars in
gold, which shows. the senator says,
that "holders of silver certificates or

TOOK A SHOT AT BALDWIN
And Now on Trial for the Attempted

The Testimony Tends to Show That
Emma Ashley's Mind Was Unbal-

SAN FRANCISCO, Sept. 16.-The TAX
ing of the testimony for the prosecution
in the case against Emma Ashley upon
the charge of having assaulted T.. j.
Baldwin with intent to commit mur-
der on July I'd. during the trial of the
sensational Ashley Baldwin case, was
commenced before Judge Bahrs and
jury today.
After the jurors had inspected the
scene of the shooting. Superior Judge
Slack was called and testified to the ef-
feet that while her sister, Lillian A.
Ashley, was on the witness stand in
his courtroom, a shot was fired, and upon
looking up from the bench he saw the
defendant standing behind Baldwin
with a smoking revolver in her hands.
which H. a. Unruh was endeavoring
to take from her
After describing the part of the court
room where Miss Ashley sat and the
testimony of Baldwin as to his relations
with Lillian Ashley, Judge Slack ex-
pressed it as his opinion that the 1e-
fendant was mentally unbalanced at
the time of the shooting. That testi-
mony, coming from so high and intelli-
gent a source, created sensation.
Through the recital by the judge, court
officers and bystanders Of the occur
rences in Judge Slack's court room
that morning when E. j. Baldwin was
close' to death, the young woman gave
no sign that she appreciated her condi
ton or environments. There was no
more interest shown In her face when
Uuruh told of the struggle to get the
revolver than when Bailiff Martin de-
scribed her being taken to cell Through
it all she was unruffled and barren of
thought to the ordinary onlooker. She
did nothing that would hinder the pros
pective plea of her attorney that she was
not conscious of her act.
The last witness for the prosecution,
Attorney Henry Highton. being absent,
court adjourned until Friday. Through
out Attorney Friedrichs endeavored to
show how the testimony as to her sis
ter's wrongs have wrought upon Emma
Ashley and she had become unbalanced

Claims American Citizenship and Ap-
peaIs TO Eustis
The Practice Has Been to Avoid Inter-
ference, and the Dynamiters
Chances for Aid Are Small

WASHINGTON, Sept 16.-The state
department has been advised that Ty-
nan, alleged to be the famous NO l" of
the Phoenix park tragedy, now under
arrest at Boulogne, has appealed to Am
bassador Eustis. claiming exemption
from surrender to the British authori-
ties by reason of his American citizen
ship. The officials of the state depart
ment decline to say in advance what ac-
ton would be taken in such case, but the
practice in the past hos been to avoid
interference and permit the surrender
presuming that the proceedings are in
accordance with the legal code of the
two countries. American citizenship
cannot be set UP to prevent the eXtradi-
ton of a person arrested in one country
for crime committed in another.
The United States has never gone on
record as taking an advanced position
in this matter although some other ma
tons claim that such persons cannot be
surrendered without the consent of the
country of their citizenship.
The authorities on extradition show
that Franco has always asserted right
to surrender fugitives of a third coun-
try without seeking its consent, so the
prospects for successful intervention in
behalf of lyman are small

"He has been in London" declares the
Chronicle. within year. Why was he
not arested?'
A Paris dispatch says: No commun-
ication of any sort with regard to Ty-
nan. the alleged Irish dynamiter, has
been received at the United States
embassy.
The Graphic says that it has learned
that the real name of Edward Bell the
American arrested at Glasgow for COM
plicity in the dynamite conspiracy, is
Ivory. The police regard him as the
dupe Of lyman and others.
The Times, in the course of a discus
sion on the extradition of lyman, says
there is no doubt that the eXtradition
treaty with France would be retroact-
i've and could be made to cover the Phoe-
nix park murders, for which there is a
fair chance that eXtradition be granted.
But the Times expresses doubt whether
the treaty would cover the case of
culprt in fresh dynamite conspiracy.
The Daily News reports that it is
stated in official circles that it is almost
certain that France will surrender Ty-
nan. a Brussels dispatch to the Daily
News declares that enough material has
been seized at the resort of the suspects
arrested at Antwerp to manufacture
half ton of dynamite.
