MIR. CARLISLE?S SPEECH.
1t Has Appeared us n Public Docu-
Eent and is Being Sent Out.

Silver Senators are today biting their
lips in vexation over a shrewd. though
somewhat unparliamentary trick played
upon them by Senator Villas of Wisconsin,
who is known the nearest representa-
tive of the administration or the floor of
the Senate There appeared this morning
among the public documents issued from
the government printing Office a pamphlet
of sixteen pages, contai 1iEs a complete re-
production of the speech delivered by Sec
retary Carlisle before the workingmen of
Chicago on the 18th of April last. 1t is
quite unusual for such matter to be print
ed in the Record or as a dCcume except
in relation to scme speech in, or action by
the Senate, and the publication of the Sec
retary's speech in opposition to the free
coinage of silver as a public document at
the government expense and subject to
be mailed under the congressional frank
comes as an unpleasant surprise to the sill
yer advocates, who may, it is said, take
occasion in the near future to call public
attention to what some Of them claim to
be an abuse of the printing privilege.
Mr.. Villas en- the morning of May Ii arose
in the Senate in the course of morning
business, and moved that Mr.. Carlisle's
speech be printed as a document. There
was no particular nOtlCe taken OF MS re-
quest, and the Vice President declared the
motion agreed to in that perfunctory way
which characterizes many of the proceed
ings of the upper house. OF course, moth
ing can be done about the matter, as the
Record says that the motion was formally
made and adopted. The speeches are print
ed, they are being sent out by every mail
travelling under the frank of a Representa-
tive or a Senator, and the 16 to 1 theory
is thus being aSsailed with administration
ammunition at the government expense.
The edition of this print of the speech will
doubtless soon be exhausted, and should a
request be made for a reprint there may be
some interesting remarks made on the floor
Of the Senate.
1t has been suggested today that 4 natu-
raj sequence of this piece of enterprises on
the part of the administration might be
the publication as a document of Gov.
Altgelds letter replying TO Secretary Car
isles speech which is considered as strong
free silver argument. If this should be
done, and the publication of Mr.. Carlisle s
speech gives an ample precedent for such
n publication. there is no telling where this
war of government publications would end
This brings to mind the experience of a
few years ago, when Henry Georges book
on the single tax was printed entire in the
Congressional Record and used as cam
Eaign document under frank.

VISITING THE CAPITOL.
Boys of the American Guard Looking
Mt the Sights.

Mt the Sights.
The New York boys composing TWO
companies of the American Guard arrived
in this city last evening at o'clock. They
were met at the station by the Corcoran
Cadets and the Canton Potomac Field
Band and escorted to the Hotel Regent,
where they are making their headquarters
during their stay in this city.
The formal receiving exercises were held
in front of the hotel. The Corcoran Cadets
presented arms and were reviewed by the
visitors. The Cadets were in command Of
Capt Edwards, Lieuts. Myer and Prosse.
In the evening number of the prominent
Grand Army men called at the hotel and
were presented to the New York boys, who
made most favorable impression. The
youthful soldiers are under the direction
of Col. II. H. Adams, the military instruc-
tor to the American Guard of New York
city. During their absence from home they
are under rigid military discipline. and Il
liner or more manly set Of boys 1t would
be hard to find 1t ia needless to say that
they are enjoying their experiences in
Washington to the highest degree.
This morning all the boys made tour of
Inspection of the Treasury Department,
and at lO:3O o'clock they gave an exhibition
tracted large crowd of Interested specta-
tors. In the crowd were Senator Hawley
and many other prominent members of the
Grand Army. The most critical of the spec
"a toiS, Ao"CNSi, were a VI high
School Cadets. who followed every move
nent with the closest attention.
On al average, the members of the
American Guard are younger than the
Washington High School Cadets, and some
of the smaller boys are not much bigger
than the guns they carried. but they lut
up drill that would have cast no dis
credit ON couple of companies Of the reg
ular troops. The procession was led by
drum corps which attended the guard from
New York. made up of Grammar School
bcys. Then came Lafayette Post 40, of
New York, one Of 'ths best-knovn organi-
cations of veterans in the country, who
came over as chaperons for the boys.
The battalion was commanded by Mai.
Heroy. Their marching was excellent, and
they went through the manual like crack
drill team, eliciting frequent bursts of ap-
piause from the spectators. After noon
dinner. the boys Were reviewed by the
President, and later they went down the
river to Mount Vernon On their return
they will make hasty tour of the Capitol
before going to the hotel for supper. They
will go back to New York tomorrow after
noon.

GEN. FITZHUGH LEE.

1t is Expected He Will Go to Cuba
Next Week.
General Fitzhugh Lee called at the
White House today and saw the President
to pay his respects before he leaves for
his post at Havana. He then stepped
across to the State Department to talk
with Secretary Olney, whom he failed to
see yesterday. 1t is expected that the
rev consul general will leave the United
States for Cuba next week, and that Mr..
Williams will remain at Havana to induct
his successor into office and as much
longer the latter may deem it neces-
sary for him 10 render assistance. There
appears to be a misapprehension in some
quarters as to the instructions received
by the new consul general. They are gen.
orally similar to those issued TO all con-
suls general, and while there are some
additions made necessary by the fact that
the consul general at Havana in a meas
ure exercises diplomatic functions and by
the desirability of keeping the State De-
partment fully advised as to the develop
ments of the military situation, there is
nothing in the instructions that looks to
any radical departure in the policy here
tofore followed by Consul General VIII

TELLER SUGGESTED
He Nav Be Available as the Democratic
Presidential Nominee.
He Could Get the Votes of All the
the South Regards Him Highly.

The suggestion Is being made seriously by
many of the more radical silver democrats
that Senator Teller will be available as the
nominee of the democratic party for Presi-
dent if the silver men control the Chicago
convention. 1t is recognized that even If
there Is not formal bolt at the convention,
party lines will not be drawn, as usual, in
the presidential campaign if the democratic
convention declares for silver.
Though the gold delegates might not bolt
the convention, the anti-silver element in
the party would not, as rule, support the
nominee. The silver democrats calculate,
therefore, that, with the financial question
at issue. their hope of success must lie in
getting the vote of every silver man in the
country, regardless of his former party as
sociation.
Strength With White Metal Fricnds.
Teller they believe, would get the vote of
every believer in the white metal. 1t is
rot altogether a matter CT expediency.
however, that suggests Teller's name.
There is a genuine admiration for him
among the silver democrats, particularly
those of the south. They regard the Colo
rado Senator as a man of marked ability
and as a good enough democrat for the
plain people of the country.
The talk about him as a possible choice,
while tentative ard dependent upon future
developments, is not merely that indulged
IN by irresponsible parties. The question
is one of serious discussion among some
of the most prominent men in the demo-
cratic party.
Complimented by His State.
The action of the Colorado convention in
instructing the delegates from that state
to ST. Louis to obey Teller was an extra
ordinary compliment, AMI may mean a
The fact that instructions to bolt the st.
Louis convention if gold standard is in
dorsed was not adopted in Colorado or in
Montana, is said to have been due entire
ly to the advice of the Senat atorS from those
states. The absolute description placed in
the hands of the men who were bold
CROUCH to go against their party and de-
feat the tariff bill in the Senate opens
up extensive possibilities.
Other Silver Senators Indorsed.
The primaries IN Idaho have indosed Du-
lois with practical unarimity. Cannon
was indorsed by Utah some time ago, so
that now the five kickers have had their
course approved and may be expected to be
very dependent. If, under the leadership
of Teller. the Colorado delegation follow
ed by the delegation of two or three other
silver states should break from the st.
Louis convention, the suggestion of Teller
the nominee of the silver democrats
might acquire a greater s SSnificance.

MINISTER TERRELL HERE.
He Sees Secretary OIney and Alss
Calls on the President.


Mr.. Terrell, United States minister at
Constantinople, arrived in Washington to-
day from Texas and went at once to the
State Department. where he had an>inter-
view with Secretary Olney and Assistant
Secretary Rockhill- He also paid his re-
spects to the President, who had sum-
moned him to Washington. The minister
was very reserved as to the purpose of
his sudden return to Washington from
his Texas home. where he was enjoying a
well-earned vacation from his diplomatic
tolls. 1t appears, however, that the Pres
1dent and Secretary Olney. who have been
recently receiving strong representations
from the pro-Armenian party in this coun-
try as to the state of affairs in Turkish
Armenia, desire that Mr.. Terrell who is
supposed to be thoroughly familiar with
the facts IN the case, at least up to the
time he left Constantinople on his leave
shall hear just what is to be said on the
subject. Until the conference is concluded
1t Will not be possible for the minister TO
fix an exact date for his return to Tur-
key.

THIRD TERM HANDICAP
1t has Injured Sound Money Chances in
Some States
A DeIiverance From Mr.. Cleveland
Now Believed to BE Too Late to
Remedy the Difficulty.

For time all cound money democrats
seemed to approve of the Presidents course
in remaining silent on the third term prop
ositicn. Some took the ground that he was
not called upon to speak. Why decline
what had no; been offered to him-what
he had no right to assume would be offered
to him? Others thought the sound money
cause would benefit by II. They con:ended
that with his name left thus in the avail
able list the number of sound money dele
gates TO the Chicago convention would be
increased. They expressed the hope that,
even if he meditated delverance, he
would delay it until convention time was
close at hand.
Handicap I'm Some States.
This judgment has recently been some
what revised. In certain quarters the opin-
ion now prevails that IT would have made
the sound money fight less difficult in sew
eral of the states if the President had taken
himself out of the calculation months ago.
The third term proposition has proved to be
handicap there. Many men. 1t is claimed,
who might otherwise have been won away
from free coinage. have drawn back upon
hearing that the fight in the democratic
ranks for sound money was being wagad
purely in the interests of a denomination of
Mr.. Cleveland. Being against third term
on principle. they held on to their old align
ment for fear of playing into the hands of
the third term people. Colonel Morrison, it
is asserted. has encountered this difficulty in
his fight for sound money in Illinois, and Mr.
Carlisle is weakened in Kentucky by the
charge of the free silver men that he is only
a stalk!ng-horse for the President
Too Late to Remedy 1t.
The fear is expressed that it is now tco
late to remedy this. The President is not
expected to break his silence, and IT meets
with but one Interpretation. The argu-
ment is that the whole sound money fight
Is in his nsm me, and success if achieved will
be for his benefit.
Can the President win at Chicago? 1t
IS not claimed by his warmest friends that
anything is assured A hot fight is in
prospect. Two-thrds will be necessary to
&c inmate. But a majority will make the
platform. and the belief of the Presidents
friends is that If the platform can be
co! structed on Cleveland lines the conven-
ton then will recognize the appropriate
ness Of putting Mr.. Cleveland Up again,
and Will do so.
Much Depends on St. Louis.
But much, it is conceded. depends on
what is done a: st. Louis. If the repub-
lican platform and candidate are well re-
ceived by the business centers, and no
bolt occurs in the west, the democrats
will have a much hearder row to hoe
The argument will be advanced then that
no sound money bid will avail anything
and that the only hope of success is in
straight, clear bid for silver
