FINANCIAL AND BOND TALK.



the Senate.
WASHINGTON, March 31.-The senate
is to have a revival of financial and
bond discussion as o result of an ami
mated debate shortly before the session
closed. Mr.. PETERS resolution for the
appointment of special committee of
five senators to investigate recent bond
issues had been relegatcd to the calendar
owing to the opposition of Mr.. Hill,
but it was reached in the regular order
during the session. Again Mr.. Hill
sought to have the resolution go over,
but he was met by energetic protests
not only from Mr.. PETER, but also from
Mr.. Wolcott and Mr.. Teller.
The latter gave notice that further de-
lays would not be resisted, and Mr..
PETER followed with notice that he
would move today to proceed with this
bond inquiry resolution as soon as Mr..
George concludes a speech on the Du-
pont case. This promises to bring a
test vote unless dilatory tactics postpone
the measure.

HENRY CLEWS' VIEWS.

Mr.. Henry Clews, of New York, in his
weekly financial circular, says of the
tightr ess Of money: "Those who look
deeply into the sources of public senti-
ment, are likely to feel entire confidence
in the final maintenance of the gold
basis; but the large majority of those
having accumulations to invest, have no
opinions which thev are willing to trust
in a matter of such importance, and
they therefore prefer to keep their
means in an uninvested form, so that
they may the more easily protect them
selves. This is the practical significance
OF the money question to Wall Street
1t is this uncertainty which prevents the
negotiation of new loans for new enter
prises; which keeps railroad construc-
ton in suspense and generally causes
people Of means to prefer investments
about which no question affecting the
money of payment can arise

THE Mckinley management in Ohio
should shut off the agent at Washington
or the man who assumes to be the
agent. His tables are wonders in math-
ematics, but the people want facts, if
they are accessible, and not lessons in
arithmetic. If Mckinley had not great
sentimental strength for the nomination
the Washington man would have killed
him long ago.-The Enquirer.

THE Chicago Chronicle has revived the

story was unearthed against Garfield in
the campaign of 1850, it did not avail

LONDON, March 31.--There is much
excitement in Irish circles over the
election of the Hon. James Burke
Roche, brother of Lord Fermoy, to par
lament as the Home Ruler candidate
for Killarney, in East Kerry. The sue
cessful candidate was married to q
daughter of Mr.. Frank Work of New
York, and she secured divorce from
him some years ago The husband,
however, subsequently, secured decree
from the British courts declaring the
American divorce to be invalid on the
ground that marriage to British citi-
zen makes a foreign wife subject alone
to British laws.
The Freeman says that the convention
which selected Mr. Roche as a candi.

charges against his character,a land admits

THE MCKINLEY SET BACK.

Two weeks ago, the general impres.
sion among Ohio Republicans was, that
Mckinley was sweeping the country,
and everything was over but the shout
ing. But a different condition of things
exists today. The Republicans of New
York, Texas and Massachusetts held
their conventions last week, but McKin-
ley got nothing but cold comfort from
any of them. Reed captured Massachu.
sets; Morton got New York, and com.
bination of the Reed and Allison men
took Texas by storm. The set back
which Mckinley received in those states
has stirred up the lti.McKinley Re-
publicans in Ohio, who have been silent
heretofore. There is trouble at home
and opposition to McKinley's nomina-
tion is beginning to assert itself in his own
state. The Columbus Dispatch, a con-
servative Republican paper, comes out
in an editorial utterance against his can.
dicacy for the Pre- sidency. 1t charges
him with preventing legislation to
raise revenue and forced the state to
borrow. 1t also says that he knew moth
ing about state affairs when he entered
the Office of Governor, and never learn
ed anything about them afterward. His
administration all through was charac-
terized by weakness, indecision and
neglect, and that under his careful Sc
lection Of appointees, there was scandal
in half the public institutions of the
State, and extravaganza in all of them.
The Presidential game is quite young
yet, and it will not Ee safe to bet on
any man, and especially not on McKin-
lev.

AN INsuRoeNr LEADER sAor.
Cubans In New York Much Depressed
over weyler's Cruelty.

NEW YORK, March 31.-A newspaper
representative took the news of the
execution of Insurgcnt Leader Aleman
in Havana to the Cuban headquarters
here. The greatest gloom Immediately
spread over the assemblage there and
Senor Joaquin Castillo, who acted as
spokesman, said ut is just as we ex-
pected. Poor Enrique Aleman, poor
Cuba. Another patriot gone, but the
cause is safe and we will win eventu-
ally.
General Weyler has adopted the
same tactics that prevailed during th
Ten Years War, when Cuban patriots,
after being made prisoners, were con-
sidored bandits and incendiaries, which
charge meant death the moment they
were brought before drumhead court
martial.
Enrique Aleman, who is brother
of Cristobal Aloman, colonel Of the
insurgont army in the province of Santa
Clara, belongs to one Of the best known
families in Matanzas. He was cap
tured By the Spanish troops about three
or four weeks ago in battle near Ma
tanzas from there he was transferred
TO Havana and jailed in Fortress Ca
banas. He was tried by military
committee, which is better known by
the name of courtmartial, and sem
fenced to be shot"

DIR. Jameson and his comrades in Holloway
prison. Recently Lord Roseberry and Sir
F. Lockwood attended the Jail and among,
other notable sympathizers have been the
Countess Of Dudley and Lord Annaley.

they would receive no encouragement

trast offered regarding the two classes.
The poor 1rishmen were thrust into. hor-
rible dungeons and treated worse than
wild beasts, without having committed a
crime, except what is considered in Eng
land to be crime on the part Of an IRISH

The St. Louis Globe Democrat seems to
be as far of IN its Biblical quotations as

of biblical authority who has discovered
that the 16 to ratio between the money

farther he will find that the only 16 to- /
man spoken of in the Bible was a person
named Judas, and he got SO Disguised with

many of his American disciples will feel
like doing this when they read the election
returns November 4. It would have been
better for the country if some Of them had
done this several months ago." This is
quite a diatribe on the subject, but the
Globe Democrat is wrong, as usual. Judas
sold his master for thirty pieces Of silver.
He was 80 to man and not very free
about It, This is so analogous to the the
CRY Of the Globe Democrat that it would
better have avoided the subject and let well
