HE'S A BORN FIGHTER
THE INCONSISTENCIES OF GEORGE
FRED WILLIAMS KNOWS NO BOUNDS.

The Original Massachusetts Mugwump Has
q Genius For Political Surprises HIS
Fight For the Gold Standard In Congress
and His Conversion to Free Coinage. ii
Probably no man in New England to-
day Is more talked about than George
Fred Williams, the nimble witted sage OF
Dedham. For years Williams has been
known as "the original Mugwqmp," and
now he may almost claim the added dis
tinctton of being the original free silver
man of Massachusetts, for when he made
his celebrated somersault from the gold to
the silver standard few weeks ago the
free silver idea had scarcely q supporter
among the political leaders of his state.
But George Fred Is undismayed and now
fights as valorously for free silver as he
once did for what he then denominated
sound money. Indeed it was as a sound
money man in the Fifty-second congress
that Mr.. Williams gained his chief distinc-
ton. When he went to Washington, there
was bitter contest In progress between
the sound money Democrats under the
leadership of Roger @. Mills of Texas and
the free silver men led by Charles F. Crisp
Of Georgia
Mr. WuuamS entered enthusiastically
into the fray as an adherent of Mills, and
when Crisp was nominated for speaker by
the caucus he refused to be governed by
that body and did not vote for Crisp. He
said he could not give his support, even
under caucus dictation, to a man who was
pledged to debase the currency. In this
congress Mr.. Williams was member Of
the committee on coinage, weights and
measures, which had a two-thirls major
ity for free coinage. The committee 10
ported bill constructed by Mr.. Bland, and
Mr.. Williams prepared the minority report
This report was substituted for that Of the
majority by the house in committee Of the
WHOLE and as leader Of the sound money
forces in the debate Mr.. Williams leaped
into national fame at a bound. 3D.
1t is not strange. therefore, that his sud-
den conversion to free coinage created
political sensation.
The original mugwumpery of George
Fred Williams was no less surprising to
his friends, but it did not create such q
widespread sensation as his conversion to
free coinage, for his fame was only local
then. 1t was in 1884, of course, that
Williams mugwumped. He was n Repub'

GEORGE FRED WILLIAMS,

lican then and was one of the organizers
of the Norfolk County Republican club in
1888, entering into 1t with the enthusiasm
that is characteristic of him. Williams
was an ardent civil service reformer, and
when the question Of indorsing Blaine's
nomination came up he opposed it. He
resigned from the club and came out for
Cleveland. The election Of Cleveland
.ound him Democrat, and he has been &C.
tive In the party ever since.
George Fred Williams was born July 10,
1859, at Dedham. When he was years
old, his father, who was shipmaster, was
lost at sea, but his mother lived to see her
son elected to congress-. His early instruc-
ton was received from private tutors, and
in 1868 he graduated from Dedham High
school. He then entered Dartmouth COL
lege, but after his freshman year he went
abroad. He studied at Hamburg, Heidel-
berg and Berlin for two years While at
Heidelberg university he volunteered, with
other students, to serve in the medical
corps Of the Prussian army, and for two
weeks before Metz. when the Germans
drove the French back, George Fred wore
the red cross and did good service caring
for the dying and wounded soldiers. In
April, 1871, he returned home, and, resum-
ing his studies at Dartmouth, by diligent
application he graduated with his class In
1874
After graduating from college he taught
school for . time on Cape Cod, but soon
went to Boston, where he was employed
az q reporter ON The Globe, devoting his
spare time to the study, of law. In 1875
he was graduated from Boston University
Law school and was admitted to the bar
While waiting for clients the young
lawyer compiled q digest of Massachusetts
laws which increased bis income, and In
few years be had a paying practice. The
first considerable amount Of money made
at his profession was In the eighties, at the
time Of the Buzzy bridge railway accident
on the Boston and Providence road. Dur
ing the forenoon Of the accident he began
writing notes to the injured and to the
relatives Of the dead. AS result, he be-
came the counsel Of two-thirds Of all those
having claims against the road. Winslow
Warren, who is at present collector of the
port Of Boston, was clerk Of the corpora
ton. Mr.. Warren and Mr.. Williams were
friendA Mr.. Warren was appointed ref
cree, and nine-tenths Of all the cases were
settled out OF court. Large sums of mon
ey wero paid to relatives of the dead and tn
those injured. Mr.. Williams Is said to
have made $500 What he did make
was mostly invested In real estate in his
native town A new street was added to
Dedham's arteries, and the selectmen
christened 1t Williams street
Mr.. Williams Is bachelor and lives in
the old house at. Dedbam which was tho
home Of his youth. While. at college he
was on tho baseball nine and still retains
his intereat2in the national game. He
plays tennis, goes to church, smokes and
takes drink occasionally. AS stump

sion, today, We're hcdgcd about with Sc
crecy.. some portion of the business tran
sacted has become known. 1t was anti
clpated that the vacancies in the board
would be filled by the selection of church
men not in sympathy with Archbishop
Ireland and Bishop keanc. The contrary
proved TO be the case. The resignation
OF Bishop Neane as a member of the
board rendered at the time he resigned
the heaGshp of The university of the uni
FerSity, was declined
Another vacancy was caused in the
board by the death of Bishop Marty or

opposed to Archbishop Ireland Arch
bishop Riordan of San Francisco a friend
of Archbishop Ireland, was elected to the
vacancy. and this. il is claimed places a
strong and influential member of the
American party in the board
Although the fact could not be ascer-
tanned with positiveness there is good rea-
son TO believe that three names were
agreed upon before the meeting ad-
iourned. today. for presentation to the
Pope as Il successor to Bishop knana
who was rector of the university. Those
present refused to discuss the matter.
