It Is Relieved the New Cabinet VIII
 Restore Confidence.
 NEW YORK, Nov. 1o.-A special to The Herald from Valparaiso gives the following additional particulars of the Ghilian crisis:
 The cabinet resigned at a late hour Saturday night and new ministry will be formed today It will represent the different factions of the Liberal party. It will be pledged to abstain absolutely from all interference i'll the general elections ill March.
 This coalition will end the crisis in the affairs of the republic. it is believed, there is great rejoicing throughout the country. The Liberals of all shades of opposition now face the Clericals as a common foe.
 The resignation of the cabinet was the direct result of conference be- tween the president and several leading politicians representing all parties All expressed the opinion that it was im- possible for the then existing cabinet to govern the country owing to the oppo- sitien of the chamber of deputies. This it was said at the conference, was the precise situatjon which led to the revo- iution of 1891.

WASHINGTON, Nov. 10. The presi- dent has pardoned W. H CIune, Isaac Ross and Philip Stanwood of California sentenced Dec. G. 1894 to pay fine of $l.00 and to be confined in Los Angeles county jail IS months, for conspiracy, the otfense being committed in railway riots which at that time was general throughout the country. President wrote following endorsement on the ap. plication.
 "These eonvicts have suffered more than nine months Imprisonment under their sentences. am bound to assume they are guilty of an offense most dan gerous in it's character, and in commis- sion of which they aided and encour- aged unlawful defiance of authority, which threatened most distressing con- sequences. am convinced, however, that these men are not criminals, but laboringmen swept into violation of law by first listening to counsels of disorder Others besides themselves are suffering humiliation and deprivation on account of their wrongdoings and I am led to believe the purposes of the punishment so far as the effect on the prisoners is concerted, have been fully accom- plished. I am also convinced the im- prisonment already suffered by these prisoners will be ample warning to thou sands equally as guilty, though unpun- ished, and to those who may be hereaf- ter tempted, that laws enacted to secure peace and order must be obeYed.

 Eighth Cents Per Bushel.
 CHICAGO, Nov. 10-Wheat broke the record for the season yesterday morning by selling at 80 16c December, 2c over Saturdays closing. The advance was not attended by any great degree of ex. citement. A few open orders to take profits on long stuff at even figure brought only temporary setback. Out. side markets were practically strong. Threatened crop damage in Argentine doleful rumors of satisfactory fall seed ing in Russia and France; and large seaboad clearances were the chief fac tors which contributed to the success oi the bulls. Corn, oats and provisions participated in advance proportionately.

Senator Blackburn Replies to the
Secretnry's Speech of Monday.
OWENSBORO, Ky, Oct. Ex-senator
Joe Blackburn spoke here this after
noon in answer to Secretary Carlisle's
speech of Monday.
Mr.. Blackburn was extremely bitter
in his remarks. He quoted Mr.. Car
Isle as saying that "Fifty-three times
as much silver has been coined since
1878 as in the SO years before that
date
Stenographic report of Mr.. Carlisle's
speech as published in the Courier
Journal said dollars instead of "sil-
ver.'' but Mr.. Blackburn read il sill
ver.'' and said: Il declare the state
ment is not true The man who uttered
it did not tell the truth. OF all the
falsehoods that were ever perpetrated
upon mankind. the meanest, the most
cowardly. the most dastardly and the
most contemplate is by the man who
tells part of the truth and suppresses
the balance in order to mislead or de-
ceive the people,
Mr.. Blackburn also said that Mr.
Carlisle says the present silver dollar
is only worth so cents. THAT is not
true" said Mr.. Blackburn, and it is
lucky for him that it is not true; for
if he told the truth, instead of being
at the head of the treasury depart
ment, he ought to be in the peniten-
tiary as a counterfeiter of the money
of his country

HEBER, Utah, Oct. 26.-This after
noon terrible fire broke out in the
northern part of the city, completely
destroying one of the largest barns in
the county, besides 14O tons OF hay,
farming implements, etc., to the value
of about $4,000
The farm on which the barn stood
belongs to Hon. A. Hatch, candidate
for state senator, and is being worked
by young man named John H.
Price. Mr.. Price is a Woodworking
young man, and the fire has taken
about all he possessed. He has the
sympathy of the people. and immedi-
ately a subscription list was started,
which is receiving the subs tantial con-
sideration of the people.
When the fire occurred, President
Hatch was away in Summit county,
and when telephoned to he expressed
his sympathy for his unfortunate
workman, The barn was built last
spring by President Hatch, and the loss
he sustains from the fire is about $1,000.
The origin of the fire is unknown.
but supposed to have started from
sparks carried by the breeze from the
stovepipe of the farm house, which is
located several hundred feet from
where the barn stood.
Judge A. C. Hatch opened court here
this morning.
Mrs. Ellen B. Ferguson is expected to
be here next Saturday night in the in
terest of Democracy. During the re-
naming days of the campaign in this
county, politics will run pretty high,
but there appears to be no possible
show for the Republicans to elect their
ticket, as the county is overwhelm-
ingly Democratic. 1t is conceded by
people in both political parties here
that Chambers and Murdoch will be re-
turned to the state legislature.
The advice given in The Herald re-
garding the placing of an X opposite
the rooster and letting it go at that is
causing some uneasiness among our
Republican friends, for although they
don't expect to elect all their county
ticket, they are in hopes of efecting
one or two of their nominees, but their
hopes are forlorn.

BISMARCK ATTACKED.
FIGARO AND GAULoIsl BOTH PUB
LIsH SHARP ARTICLES.
Attitude Lacks Dignity and VIII
Minimize Him in the Eyes of Pos
terity-should Furnish ExpIana-
lions.

NEW YORK. Oct. PA cable of the
Herald from Paris says: Two of the
most conservative of the Paris papers,
the f ,gafo and~sGaulois, publish sharp
attacks on Prince Bismarck on account
of the revelations regarding the Russo
German rela tions in the Hamburger
Nachrichten. for which he is held re-
sponsible.
The Figaro says that the events in
which Bismarck is concerned now can
only be qualified as posthumous. Since
his fall from power, he cannot be con-
tent to have no say in the less important
affairs of his country.
The Figaro concludes: prince Bis
marck ought to furnish explanations,
either contrasting that he is an imposter
or that he has not foreseen the conse-
quences of his own policy, which have
been to ALLEVIATE Russian sympathieS from
German egotism."
The Gaulo.s says Prince Bismarcks at
titude lacks dignity, and will minimize
him in the eyes of posterity. If he is
really the author or inspirer of the Ham
burger Nachrichten revelations, he has a.
very short memory or speculates on the
credulity or ignorance of his readers. The
Gaulos adds that it would be curious
and instructive if he whose object was TO
isolate France should witness the isola-
ton of his own country, and be obliged
to admit he himself contributed to it.

county treasurer on the Democratic
ticket, is fitted in every way for that
responsible position. For 16 years he
was connected with the postal and
railway mail service, performing the
exacting and responsible duties of the
position with zeal and ability. Being
eminently qualified for the position of
county treasurer by superior education.
long clerical training and sterling hon
esty. he viii receive the support of all
elements of the population of Weber
county. His father was Chauncey w.
West, one of the early pioneers of
Utah, and while Mr.. West makes no
claims because of his fathers record,
still it is of great interest to the peo-
pie in considering the selection for such
an important Office to know that he
was reared amidst the influence and
surroundings of a sturdy pioneer FAM
lily. Mr.. West is courteous, affable.
able and of well known integrity.
Though not a wealthy man he can
readily furnish a bond much greater
IN amount than the one required. This
latter undisputed fact is important as
showing the confidence reposed in him.
He stands boldly for the free coinage
or silver and should be elected.

erty to his son George, who was given
to overindulgence in intoxicants Instead,
he placed 400 bonds of the Southern Pa
cific company in the hands of the other
two sons in trust for George, with the
proviso that if within IA years after the
death of the founder of the fund, George
Croker Should stay sober for five
consecutive years. the principal should be
turned over to- him.
If. however, he failed to abstain from
overindulgences the bonds were to be
distributed among certain grandchildren
Of Charles Croker.
Sept. %, last, George Croker applied
for the bonds, alleging he had been sober
for five years. The matter was SUBJ
ritted to the courts by the executors,
who were instructed to turn over the
bonds to the legatee.
