FREE SILVER CONFERENCE
Ex-Congressman Hatch, Presidential Aspir r. ant, Blamed the PopuIists for Defeat
 ing Blackburn.

Washington, Jan. 23.-The morning ses- sion of the free silver conference was wholly given over to the acrimonious de- bate between populists and silver men, the committee on resolutions being still occupied with framing its report and it being deemed impracticable to transact any business in their absence. The dis cussion was provoked by the declaration of Ex- Congressman Hatch of Missouri, who has come out squarely as candi- date for the presidential nomination on the silver ticket, and who in an impas- stoned speech had blamed the populists for the defeat of that sterling silver ad- ;vocate, Joe Blackburn, of Kentucky.
 Ex-v Presidential Candidate. Field of the populist party vigorously combat ted MT. Hatch's statements and caused considerable excitement and bad feeling by his pointed references to influences exerted in the Kentucky campaign by President Cleveland, Secretary Carlisle and. others. Amid frequent interruptions and, much enthusiasm MT. Hatch replied in defense and hotly reiterated his. criti4 cisms of the populists action in putting a ticket In the field, which had barely drawn enough votes from the democracy to elecy a single gold standard republi- can lses.s-.sag sr sr

MONEY ALWAYS WINS.
On the Twentieth Ballot Colonel Money Re- ceived Majority of Ballots in the
 Caucus.

Jackson, Miss Jan. 23-The balloting for United States senator tonight was full of interest The impression had gone abroad that something was going to happen, that the deadlock, which had come on nearly three weeks ago, was to be broken, and a large crowd was pres ent.
 The gallery was full of ladies, while the floor of the caucus was crowded with an enthusiastic mob. The first ballot of the night, the seventeenth of the series, gave Money 71A, Lowry 40, Allen 37h, Hooker G. McLaurin 3, Yerger l. On the eighteenth Money received 75R, lacking seven of the, nomination. On the nine teenth Money had 79, which was within two of the. haven, and a mighty shout went up from his friends. No sooner had the result been announced than an Allen supporter moved adjournment, at which there was a boisterous protest The roll call was demanded and the caucus de- clined to adjourn by vote of 8S to 73. The twentieth ballot resulted: Money S4, Lowry 36, Allen 34. Hooker 3.
 Pandemonium broke loose sure enough and the mighty shout with which the re- suit was greeted shook the rafters of the old capitol still further from their moor ings. Colonel Money was gotten to the speakers stand and returned hearty thanks for the honor conferred upon him, assuring the caucus he would be faithful to the trust imposed.

IRON TRADE REVIEW.
Prices Are Advancing and-a Decidedly Better Feeling Prevails in the Iron Business.

Cleveland, O., Jan. 2S. The Iron Trade Review today says:
 I Favorable signs are more numerous in the iron trade, and the past fortnight has put a better aspect on nearly every de- partment of the market. The advance in Bessemer pig iron and in steel billets noted last week has continued, and in the case of the latter amounts now to $2.50 from the lowest point touched in the hol- idays. Finished materials show irregu- larities, but in nearly all lines there is 8 firmer feeling, with increased buying. In part the larger demand is attributed to better consumption, and in part to a desire of buyers to anticipate higher prices. The disparity between current consumption and the capacity of rolling mills and steel works is still dominat- ing element in the situation. Reports from all directions indicate that the past week has brought a larger tonnage to most mills than any preceding one In three months. The official statistics of pig iron stocks at the close of 1S95, With the unusual showing of but 5000 tons more on hand than in the middle of the year, or about fifteen days supply, taken in connection with the reduction of the output this month, have contributed to the advances of Bessemer and to the firmer feeling in foundry iron. Foundry buyers are taking hold with somewhat more freedom, and in pipe iron sales the past week have reached a good figure. The pipe foundries have been able to get a considerable shading of the 'Birm1ng- ham figure in view of the light demand for gray forge by mills.

They Found His Corpse.

Jacksonville, Fla, Jan. 23.-The corpse of c. H. Silleck of Brooklyn, N. r., was found this morning lying by the side of the track of the Florida East Coast rali- road at Deep creek trestle, about ten miles from St. Augustine, on the road to PaIatka. MT. Silleck and wife were pas sengers on Wednesday mornings train from Dayton, and on the arrival of the train at St. Augustine in the afternoon MT. Silleck was missing. The last seen of him alive was shortly after leaving Palatka. when he left his wife, as she thought, to go into the smoking car After some little time, at the request Of Mrs Sileck, the baggage transfer agent went through the train to look for him. It was then found that he was not on the train, and it was feared that he had fallen off while passing from one car to another. Mrs. Sflleck came on to Jack sonville and the railroad authorities be- gan a search for her husband which re- suited in finding his corpse this morning. In falling the unfortunate man received injuries which must have resulted in his speedy death. The body will be taken to Brooklyn for interment. MT. and Mrs. Silleck had been at Dayton and other points on the east coast for the benefit of Mrs. Sillecks health. They were on their way home when the accident took place.

The responsibility of the hrst wrong was fixed on Great Britain, ana congress and the administration stood out in their appropriate attitude IS friends of justice and friends of peace
 Proceeding to discuss MT SewelPs res button and speech, MT. Daniel said that me charge as to the presidents action being premature in view of the business and financial condition of the country was but superficial. The financial crisis had come on five years ago. and might last five or ten years longer In the meantime was the United States to take no cognizance of great affairs, but to sit down supinely and let the wide world Nag as it would? s4sl
 Referring to Mir Wolcott's speech yea terday, MT.
