Report Promised in Three Weeks.

The three mine inspectors appointed
by Governor Hastings to investigate the
causes of the recent disaster at the Twin
shaft mine near Pittston had private
hearing on Thursday with the governor,
Secretary Reeder and Attorney General
Mccormick. The inspectors told the
state officials what they had done, went
over the data with great precision, ex-
plained what they had found told what
they thought was the cause of the acct
dent and gave their views as to the ulti-
mate recovery of the bodies now buried
in the mine.
After hearing the inspectors the gov
ernor requested that they put their re-
port in writing, together with such sug-
gestions as to the further security of
minos and the taking of steps for the
safety of minors as can be embodied in
legislation to bo presented at the next
meeting of the legislature. This report
the inspectors promised to make and
present within the next three weeks.

fore Mr.. Bryan arrived u wasimpossible to
obtain admission and Thousands gathered
on tho lake front In the hope Of participant
ing In an overflow meeting, but this was
impossible owing to Mr.. Bryan's many
engagements.
Tho nominees appearance upon the
stage was greeted with a mighty shout Of
applause. Hundreds Of ladies In the au-
dience had small American flags, and as
they cheered they raised the flags In uni
son. Just as Mr.. Bryan was about to be-
gin his address he noticed large number
Of men in the windows on the roof of the
building, and, fearing danger, he declined
to proceed until the roof was cleared. His
speech was on lines made familiar by him
on previous occasions, and was In the
main u general discussion of the financial
issue.

FREE SILVER AND
THE WORKINGMEN.
THEY WILL NOT BENEFKT.
They Will Get Less Wages and
Will Have to Pay More For
Everything They Buy.

Suppose this country adopts free silver,
where will the workingman come IMP
Does no think that his wages will be i'm
mediately doubled If we can judge the
future by the past, they will not. The
workingman already knows that by ex-
perionce. Under free silver he will have
lot of dollars containing 40 cents worth Of
silver for that Is the actual price of silver
in dollar at the present time.
When he goes to spend these dollars for
provisions or clothing, he may be awaken
ed from his beautiful dream of free silver,
for he will find all the prices away up.
Tea, coffee, sugar, clothes, coal, rent, ev-
erything has advanced In price. But how
about his wagesP Have they increased as
much as the commodities he Is compelled
to buy for himself and family Hardly.
The experience of every nation teaches that
wages rise more slowly than commodities.
They are the last to feel the effect of ad-
vancing prices. Between 1860 and 1866
the prices of commodities went up 1872 per
cent Wages advanced only 40 per cent
Wherever, in fact, the currency of nation
has been inflated prices Of commodities
have risen, but wages have risen much
more slowly, If at all.
1t does not appear, therefore, that the
laborer will gain anything through free
silver. On the contrary, he will lose. He,
as well as everybody else, must take the 40
cent dollar because the law says so. When
he draws his weekly wages, they will DO
paid to him in dollars worth 40 cents. The
money he has in savings banks will BIO rep
resented by dollars worth less than half
dollar. The investment he has made in
building and loan associations to provide
himself with home for his family will be
represented only by 40 cent dollars, and the
amount of his investment will dwindlo
half. If fire should visit his home, his
insurance would be paid In dollars not
worth 100 cents, as he expected, but in dol
lars worth 40 cents.
And SO it is in every transaction in
which money plays part. Everything
the workingman has to buy will cost him
twice as much as it does now, and his re-
ceipts from whatever source will be only
half as much as they were in "the good
old days" before free silver.

CARLISLE IN THE CAMPAIGN.
The Secretary Receives . Most Platter
ing Reception at Louisville.

The Secretary Receives . Most Flatter-
ing Reception at Louisville.
LOUISVILLE, Oct s9-This stronghold
of the Kentucky gold standard Democ-
racy fairly outdid itself last night. II
Secretary Carlisle has had cause to doubt
the hospitality Of his native state he may
readily have forgotten it In the cordially
of his reception here. No larger crowd
has turned out in this city during this
campaign, and no more brilliant gather
ing has greeted any speaker In Louisville.
The extent of the demonstration was a
surprise to even the most enthusiastic ad-
mirers of the great Kentuckian. The
meeting was set for . p. m, but by $3.50
the 1900 seats were occupied, and by 7 the
aisles, foyer and wings were all full.
The secretary was escorted from the Gait
House to the Auditorium by the Young
Mems Democratic Sound Money club. He
was greeted with prolonged cheering when
introduced by George M. Davis, of this
city. The applause was almost equaled
when in the course of his address he men,
toned, abruptly, the name of President
Cleveland.
Mr.. Carlisle began by stating that 1t was
not the Democratic party that he and
those who believe as he does are fighting
but the most unnatural and indefensible
presidential combination that ever existed
In this country. 1t began, he said, by the
betrayal Of the Democracy at Chicago,
eliminated In the surrender to Populism
at st, Louis, and has for Its object the
election of candidate who represents
both of the parties to the compact and be-
lieves in the doctrines of both.
IF they shall triumph" he said, 1--WE
may expect to see the day when thrift and
economy will be punished by contiscation
and Incidence rewarded by the distribu-
ton of spoliation from private estates and
the United States treasury"
The result Of free coinage of silver at
ratio of 10 to by the United States alone
would be such as we have never known
such reduction in the purchasing power
of money as to make it impossible for n
large portion of our population to secure
the necessaries of life, and the cutting in
half of the value of the savings deposits
and insurance policies.

Into this city shortly after noon yesterday.
An escort Of several hundred G. A. r.
men and citizens accompanied the party
to the Opera House. already packed with
IN audience of 1900 people. General Buck
ner spoke for thirty minutes, discussing
the money question with keenness and
force He denounced sectionalism and
paid an eloquent tribute to the flag and
the integrity of the Union. General Pal
mer made short address, directing his
words to the old soldiers, commenting
with spirit on the effect that free coinage
would have in scaling down their PEN

OPEN MILLS OR MINES2
A Significant Comparison of Mining and
Other Industries.

Other Industries.
In 1890 there We're about 5000 mines in
this country producing both gold and sill
yer in varying quantities.
In the same year there were moro than
900 factories In the United States turn
ing out manufactured products, more
than 80 times as many factories as mines
of gold and silver put together.
The mines employed less than 10000
men. The factories employed nearly 8 0O0,-
600 hands-in short, 90 times as many.
Mines do not purchase raw materials and
SO give employment to others, but the fac
tories in 1890 paid more than So, 600, 0O0,-
600 for raw materials.
And what of the value of productsp
That of the mines was nearly 800, 600, 900
in gold and silver. That looks big I'M
til you compare it with $1,000, 100000
of value produced by the factories
-Four cities Of California alone in 1890
showed an output of manufacture nearly
double in value the product of all the gold
and silver mines of the Union. And Cal
ifornia is not a manufacturing state COM
pared with some Of her sisters Ohio dis
charged more factory hands on account of
the Wilson bill than were ever employed in
all the mines in one year. Now York city
alone did the same thing.
Which Is the paramount issueP Which
shall we protect? 1t is hard to realize the
magnitude of our manufacturing interests
except by comparison. The value pro-
duced, the people employed directly, the
people employed indirectly, the farm prod
ucts to feed them, the railroad and steamer
facilities to move them, all these items
run into figures that bewilder the brain
that tries to comprehend them.
Yet we are asked to believe that 1t is
more important to help the mine owner
sell his bullion than 1t is to foster these gi-
gantic manufacturing interests. 1t will
not be our mining that will make us
great nation. Mining Is local issue;
mines ore confined to half dozen states,
and, strange as 1t may seem, half dozen
cities in those states turned out in 1890
nearly three times as much value in man
ufactures as the half dozen states did in
gold and silver.
Manufacturing Is not local. 1t is cock
tensive with the national domain. Given
only reasonable protection, and the facto-
ry whistle will echo from Mainc's pine
forests to California's gulf and from the
humid swamps of Florida to Alaska's Ice
bound shores. Francisco Argonaut.

Chairman Hanna Claims Missouri.

CHICAGO, Oct. 29.-"From information
we have received from nearly all the
county chairmen in Missouri" said Chair
man Hanna yesterday, I'VE feel confident
Of electing the governor and majority Of
the legislature, and have more than an
even chance of carrying the state for Nc
Kinley. The change of sentiment there is
remarkable, and that state, which for
time leaned strongly toward Bryan, will
very probably be found in the Mckinley

publican United States senator will surely
be elected this winter"

CHllDREN'S FASHIONS.


Notes Concerning Dress For Little Folk of
Tender Years.
Many very elegant costumes for fab and
winter wear are made Of wool and velvet,
the latter composing all the accessories.
Passomenterie and fine buttons form the
decoration. Fur, black or very dark, Is
also effectively used on cloths and other
wooden goods Of light tone or plaids Of
light and dark together.
The custom of clothing very little chill
dren In white Is pretty one and is also
fashionable one at present. From the
child's birth until Ii can walk alone many
mothers keep 1t entirely In white, never
allowing any color whatever. The little
frocks are Of muslin, nainsook or pique in
summer In winter they are of flannel,
cashmere yelling or other washable wooden
goods, light but warm. The cotton gowns
