day. at Mansfield. Ohio:

coinage of silver?"

not eStanhsh It's value or purchasing
power. Our silver currency is valuable
now because it is based upoD gold If the

would have no value higher than 50 cents
on the dollar.
1T is desirable to have more silver money.
but the Chicago platform does not point
out the way TO get it No money that is
debased or discredited can be of advantage

Would free coinage cause a rise In

only that the Chicago populists did not

worth IND cents on the dollar and never
was. except during our late civil war The
reason silver is today worth only 30 cents
Is because OF its threatened free. unlimited

STARVING INDIANS.

A Party OF Yakimas snowbound in the
Mountains Froeztng and Starving to
Death-One Of Their Number Travels
Seventy Five Miles Through Deep Snow
In Search Of Ada Party Going to tho
Rescue.
SAN FRANCISCO, Dec. ia special
to the Examiner from Tacoma says:
A party of II or 10 Yakima Indians
are starving and freezing to death
in the Cascade mountains. They are
snowbound and Judge Erwin, agent
at Fort Simcoe, who has charge Of the
Yakimas, has organized relief party
at Chehalis to 20 to the base Of Mount
Tacoma on this side of the range
The Indians were overtaken and
hemmed In by the snowstorm that
swept over the western part Of this
state couple Of weeks ago.
The Indians were out on q hunting
expedition when the storm began, the
snow quickly becoming SO deep that
they were unable to travel. As soon
as tho storm subsidized one OF their
number travelled to Chehalis, a dis
tance Of about rs miles. He reported
the snow ten feet deep, the horses all
dead from exposure and starvation and
the women badly in need of outside re-
lief.
Judge Erwin received message
from the Indian department at Wash
ington Sunday, instructing him to
spare no expense to rescue the impris-
oned Indians, and he accordingly or
ganized a pack train and set out to
their assistance.

GOLD CERTIFICATES,

Secretary Carlisle Declines to Resume
Thoir Issue and Gives His Reasons.
WANnINGToN, Dec. l5-The follow
ing letter from the secretary Of the
treasury was made public yesterday:
Franklin Hapen, Esq, President Merchants Ma
'tionu Bank, boston:
SIR-Replying to your favor OF the 2itn of
November, written In behalf Of Boston banks
asking for Issue OF gold certificates, under tho
authority granted in section 10 Of the act of
July II, 1882. am not yet prepared to give the
necessary order
After the reserve has once fallen below SiOO, =.
0.0,O-0 and the issue Of such certificates has
been stopped 1t is not certain that the secre.
tary OF the treasury, especially In view Of ex-
listing conditions, would be justified In resum-
Ing their reissue. 1t has been the experience
of the department in the past that tho normal
Increase OF the gold reserved caused by the
exchange OF paper currency for gold is checked
by the issue OF gold certificates aud In fact,
upon various occasions considerable amounts
OF gold have been Withdrawn by presentation
Of notes for redemption and immedi-
ately- redeposited in exchange for gold
certificates. Moreover, the house Of represen-
tatives Of the fifty-thrd congress, at Its third
session, passed a bill disseminating their issue
entirely, and it is the intention OF the depart
mcnt to present the subject again at very
early date. As the amount Of gold reserve is
largely determine from time to time by the
available amount Of paper IN circulation 1t
seems lnadvisable, ut this time especially, to
increase the volume Of that currency by the
issue OF gold certificates.

CONGRESS Is AROUSED.
But VIII Take No Hasty Action in Cuban
Affairs.

But VIII Take No Hasty Action in Cuban
Affairs.
WASHINGTON, Dec. 15.-While senti-
ment in congress has been very much
aroused by the death OF Maceo and
the opinion prevails among members
that he was assassinated, no definite
action on the subject is expected by
congress until after the holidays. The
resolution providing for an adjourn
ment next Tuesday precludes, it is be-
lieved, any definite action.
Senator Calls resolutions, introduced
yesterday, were referred to the COM
mite on foreign relations with the
consent of their author, which seems
to indicate that no hasty or impulsive
action will be taken.
In the house Congressman Woodman
is anxious for an opportunity to intro
ducc resolution asking for an inves-
tigation of the circumstances attend
ing Gen. Maceo's death. That the in
vestigation would be ordered before
the holiday adjournment seems rea-
sonably certain. There will be no
committee sent to investigate and the
only sources of information that seems
available are the consular representa-
tives. 1t is probable that the inves-
tigation will take the form of a call on
the secretary of state for all the Off
cial advices received from our consuls
In Cuba.
Members Of congress complain that
necessary information on which to
form a proper conclusion on Cuban
matters has been withheld. Even the
details Of Consul General Lees report
are not accessible to the men in con.
gress whose constituents look to them
for intelligent action.

are SO well known and carry SO much
weight thatit is beyond doubt the be-
ginning Of movement that will take

the following as vice-presidents:

Gin opening the meeting Col. Allen
read this call:
We, the undersigned citizens Of this repub-
lie, anxious for the success Of oil people fol
the OWL and political liberty which this NO.
tion secured more than century ago and
still enjoys unite In organizing the Cuban
League Of the United States Of America.
The object Of this league Is TO secure for
Cuba by all lawful, peaceful and honorable
means, the political independence which her
patriots are now endeavoring, by tremendous
sacrifice OF treasure and life to gain. to en-
courage them with our sympathy and moral
support, and TO arouse the whole nation to en-
courage the end Of the campaign Of murder aud
destruction In that island
Mindful Of the help which our fathers re-
ceived In similar struggle, We are constrained
by sense Of gratitude TO return to Cuba the
kindness which was SO effectively given to us
1t is apparent TO all thoughtful observers
that Spain has not the power TO crush the Gu
ban patriots, and therefore, the continuance
OF the cruel struggle In Cuba can only serve to
prolOng sense Of abasement and humiliation
In the minds Of all men who are confident that
this republic has the power to end 1t and is In
honor called upon to do so for the best good Of
oil parties directly concerned.
This call was signed by all of the
men above named. Other prominent
