Free Silver or Nothing.

Washington. Nov 20-Word has been
received from an authoritative source
that the free silver Republicans who went
over to Bryan have mapped out a plan
and the remainder of the Fifty-fourth,
which puts out of the question any propo-
sition TO conciliate them for the purpose
of having their support for general Re-
publican policies. They will announce
soon after their arrival here for the win
ter session that no kind of silver iegis-
lation short of free and unlimited coin
age will be considered by them for q
moment, and that no proposition merely
for the enlarged use of silver without free
coinage will receive their support
The silver Republicans will also serve
notice that the Dingley bill is not TO be
passed by this congress, and that no
tariff legislation can be attempted before
the Mckinley administration will have
come into power

HER $50 HAT.
Shall She Hide 1t behind a So Opera
Seat:

Concerning the theatre hat'' the
New York World remarks: 1.-The man
ayers of the opera respectfully request
that ladies occupying seats in the
orchestra will not wear hats during the
performance"
That is the published desire of the
managers. 1t will be interesting to OBJ
serve how far the ladies occupying
seats in the orchestra" will yield to it.
The question is one which experience
alone can decide: but, looked at pros
pectively, and only in the light of femi-
nine human nature, the outlook is not
encouraging.
First of all, there is the feminine de-
termination never. never, never to sub
nit to masculine dictation in any mat
ter of attire, and equally never TO lis
ten to any argument on the subject.
Have not men ridiculed and denounced
avery fashion accepted by women since

Many contradictory Statements.

Madrid, Nov. 23.-Many contradictory
statements have been received egarding
the intentions of Captain General Wey-
ler who is leading the campaign
against Maceo in the province of Pinar
Del Rio, Cuba. 1t was stated some
days ago that the campaign mad re-
suited in failure, and General Weyler
proposed going to Havana. This was
denied, and later the statement was
made that the government had in
formed General WeyleT that owing to
questions of International and demo-
cratic politics it would be .expedieN. for
him to return to Havana until he had
won a decisive victory over the rebels.
On top of the conflicting statements is
a dispatch today from the Havana
correspondent of the Impartial, who
is generally well informed, stating,
without reserve. that General Weyler
will arrive in Havana this evening
from Pinar Del Rio. Reliance is placed
upon the dispatch here, it being held
that if it were not true it could hardly
have passed the censor at Havana.

today he said: The history OF the

Spain will not avail, then there should
be intervention. In this movement the
United States must take the lead. The
time has come when we should insist
that Spain shall not annihilate the
Cuban people in order TO maintain her
supremacy over them

PARDON FOR BARDSLEY !
Philadelphia'S Thieving Treasurer Will
Soon be Free.
PARDON BOARD WILL so URGE
Sentenced in 1891 to Fifteen Years In
prisonmsnt for Stealing Half Million
Robert Beatty, Accomplice of Demp-
sey, Recommended for Pardon

HARRISBURG, Sept. 3-The board of
pnrdons has practically decided TO recon-
mend that pardon be granted TO John
Bardsloy but final action will not be
taken until tomorrow, when another con-
ference will be held At the close of the
session yesterday afternoon members Of
the board said that there was no doubt of
the pardon being granted, but they want
to hear from Governor Hastings before
finally announcing action
On July ?, 1891, Bardsley was sentenced
to fifteen years in the Eastern penitcntiary
for misappropriating over 5000 of city
and state moneys while acting as city
treasurer of Philadelphia. Bardsley' i
downfall was directly brought about by
the failure of the Keystone bank, in which
the moneys in his charge were deposited,
and the flight of its president, Gideon w.
Marsh, but 1t was primarily caused by
Bardslcy' unfortunate stock speculatiOns
A financial panic was caused by the rev.
elatiOns following Bardsleys resignation
from his office on May2l, 1891. The Spring
Garden bank, which had over $40, 600 Of
the city's money, went down, and the
Kennedy brothers, its president and
cashier were sent to prison for ten years,
Cashier Lawrence, Of the keystone, was
given seven years, and was pardoned by
President Cleveland about IA month ago.
The big Bradford Mills company, of which
Bardsley was an officer, was forced to the
wall, and number of smaller concerns
sank in the storm. President Marsh of
the wrecked keystone bank is still a fugi-
tive from justice.
The agitation for Bardsley's pardon has
been going on for II considerable time at
the instigatiOn of prominent citizens who
believed that the unfortunate prisoner
was more sinned against than SHINING.
There was no lack of medical testimony
brought before the pardon board to prove
that Bardsley is practically in IA state of
collapse, and if continued in confinement
could live but brief time.
The board made the following recon-
mendations for pardon Robert Beatty,
of Pittsburg, the alleged accomplice of
Hugh f. Dempsey in plot to poison non
union workmen in Carnegie's mills at
Homestead stephen Legeza, Of Jefferson
county, convicted of murder in the second
degree Geneand Falcon, of Easton ag-
gravated assault and battery. \ pardon
was refused in the case of Daniel Lahey
