MONEY AND MORALS.

1--WE want good money in this coun-
try and we want good morals in This
country, and we want public and pri-
vate honesty in this country. (Great
applause) and we do not propose to
be q nation of regulators. (Tremea-
dous applause.) ] tfonk you. my fell
low citizens, for this call. It is an en-
coura cement to the cause and it is an
inspiration to every Republican"
(Cheers.)
Major McKinley's last speech of the
day was made to a spirited and enthu-
siastic delegat ton from West Virginia.
The spokesman was c. Y. Caldwell, of
Parkersburg. His speech was an I'M
commonly earnest and moving one.
Major Mckinley addressed the West
Virginia people as follows:
'sThe interests of West Virginia are
Identical, and are not different from
the interests of every other section Of
state are identical with the interests Of
my state. What will benefit one will
benefit the other They have no divided
interests. They are one and indivisible.
No longer are they separated in in
terest or affection or fraternity by
the unhappy events OF tllirty-five years
ago. The wounds then inflicted have
been healed. The bitterness then en-
gendered has been assuaged.'
He spoke at some length on the tariff,
concluding:
eve have tried experiments and we
know that when we have been on the
ship Of experience we sailed safely into
port, and when we have taken the raft
Of experiment we have always gone
down" CLong and continued applause)

Major Mckinley addressed them as
follows:
The people of Ohio have improved

tinuous cheering)
I AM GLAD HE DID IT.
Some other state might have done it;
some other state probably would have
done it; but the fact remains that Ohio
did it, and helped to give to the coun-

has never hesitated before in any
emergency; she has never fallen in any

except for human liberty. Ohio this

Change. In the Trnn.fcr of Troops.

Cn0n8eS the lfWnS1cf OF VfOOpH.
Secretary Lamont has made an import
ant modification Of the recent order in re-
gard to the transfer of troops. AS now
provided the 5th Artillery distributed along
the Pacific coast will relieve the 1st Ar
tillery distributed among northern posts
in the Department of the East, and in the
Department of the Missouri, instead of re-
lieving the Sd Artillery, stationed at South
Atlantic posts, as originally ordered. The
1st Artillery will garrison the posts vacated
by the Sd Artillery, and the latter regi-
ment will relieve the 5th Artillery at posts
on the Pacific coast, according to the orig
il al plan. One of the two light batteries of
5th Art llery will take station at Fort Sher-
idan, Illinois, and the other at Fort Ham
iltcn, New York. The light battery of the
1st Artillery. now at Fort Hamilton will
take station at Washington barracks, D. c.,
and the light battery at Fort Sheridan will
go to Fort Sam Houston, Texas. All the
troops with the charging regiments having
Elk months or less to serve who do not de-
sire to re-enlist in their present regiments
will be permitted to remain at their pres
ent stations for transfer to organizations
ordered there. The object of the modifica-
tion of the original order is to effect a
mere complete rotation of the stations of
the troops by sending the northern troops
south, the southern troops west, and the
western troops to the northeast.

keeping the populists of Texas from fusing
with the republicans in that state for cleo

the leaders in Texas threatening the ven-
geance of the national committee if an at
tempt is made to fuse with the republicans.
Chairman Butler is hopeful that the demo-
Gratis and populists will be able to fuse, and
he looks to Chairman Jones to advise that
the populist proposition be accepted. The
popullsts want seven CT the fifteen electors
Chairman Butler has received official
notification that fusion has been arranged
In Kentucky. When his attention was

NOT READY FOR TRIAL
A Postponement in the lexington Railroad
Cases.
Attorneys Say They Want to Get Tes-
timOny From Pittsburg-The
District Ready.

The suits instituted some days ago by the
District Commissioners against the Ecking-
ten and Soldiers Home railway and the
Belt Line railway companies to recover for
tEeir failure to equip the roads with me-
chanlcal motors by September 10, were
called in Justice O'Nears court this morn
ing. Al the request of Mr.. John w. Ridout,
the attorney for the railroads, the hearing
was continued until Monday, October 5.
The suits were brought in accordance
With the act of June TO- 1885, which pro-
vlded that within three months from the
passage of the act both companies should
begin to equip those portions of their re-
spective lines situated within the bounda-
ries of the city of Washington with COM
dressed air motors. Neglect or failure to
comply, the act says, shall subject the cor
poration neglecting or failing to a pen
atty of $50 day fer each and every day
the neglect or failure continues, to be re-
covered by the Commissioners in any court
of competent jurisdiction. According to
the claims of the Commissioners, the COM
panies were in default for the six days
from September IL to 16 inclusive, so that
each suit is for $500.
Mr.. Ridout in asking for a continuance,
referred to the recent appointment of q re-
eeiver for the roads and spoke Of the en-
in just now. He said that he desired an
opportunity to take certain depositions
Sc NE of them from people in Pittsburg, 20
show that a contract had been made to
equip the road and that satisfactory pro-
ereSS had been made. He claimed that the
suits would drop to the ground, for there
are ten cars all ready for shipment as soon
as the court authorizes Receiver Schoepf to
order them. The continuance, he said, was
necessary to enable him to file his pleas.
Attorney 8. T. Thomas, who, with Mr.. A.
B. Duvall, represented the District, an
Eounced that he was ready to go on with
the case and could see reason for further
oelay. He said that the railroads had made
no attempt to comply with the law and, as
far as any enc could see, they are showing
no disposition to try. He insisted that
nothing could be proved by the Pittsburg
people that could not be equally well proved
in this city, and in his opinion it was moth
ing but an attempt to further delay the
whole matter.
Justice O'Neal decided that under the cir
cumstances the defendants were entitled to
continuance and he set the case down
for hearing a week from Monday at 3
o'clock.

Proposing a Joint Debate.
Stilscn Hutchns whose challenge to b.
H. Warner for joint debate on tine finan-
cial issues, has excited a good deal OF in
terest in the District, has made public his
letter to Mr.. Warner. 1t is as follows:
Il notice with considerable interest that
you have lately taken part in a public dis
cussion in defense of gold monometallism as
against the bimetallic principles advocated
by the democratic party and its candidate
Mr. Bryan.
Until a very recent period my prefer
ences and probably my prejudices would
have led me to generally agree with you,
but investigation and pretty careful study
Rave caused complete charge in my
views.
Il believe now, most devoutly, that the
free coinage of silver and gold would be
the best of all financial policies for the
| country generally. best for you and best for
me and best for very large majority of
our fellow citizens. You may be able to
expose the fallacy of this theory I'm a pub
lie discussion, for which, most certainly.
your long experience as the president Of a
national bank and a large trust company
especially fits you.
III It is agreeable 1 should be glad to
discuss this question with you at some
early date, to be agreed upon, the audien .e
to be composed of persons admitted by
tickets, one-half to be distributed by each
of us. The debate to be limited to TWO

reply and three-quarters Of an hour to the
closing, the choice of opening to be decided
by lot Such other rules for the conduct of
the debate would relieve us from inter-
ruption by the audience or troublesome
applause can be agreed upon jointly
Il have no doubt you have plenty Of rea-
sons for the faith that is in you. and have
a robust suspicion that / am right ] NAV
not be as strong as the creed l entertain.
but If you are agreed to it 1 will do the
best 1 can to explain and defend it, An
early answer will greatly oblige
yours very truly,
''STILSON HUTCHINS."
Mr.. Hutchins said today that he had be-
come thoroughly convinced that there is an
Insufficient supply CT money for this coun-
try, and that free coinage is the relief,
Mr.. HutcEins said he had selected Mr. War
Ter because he thought him well qualified
to maintain the sourd money side of a de-
bate. He said If Mr.. Warner could convert
him he would willingly submit
Mr.. Warner said this morning that
press Of business engagements had pre-
vented him answering the challenge of Mr.,
Hutchins. He would do so in a few days.
He had not decided, he said, whether he
would accept the challenge Mr. Warner
has sent Mr.. Hutchins a note that he will
make formal reply.

Claim of DETERMINATION Against
Their Matter by POstmasters.
The silver party people claim to be re-
| ceiving notices of discrimination by post
masters in the country against the franked
political matter sent out by them. They
have received letters, they say, from Buff
falo, N. Y, and Reliance, Va, that the
postmasters at those places have forced
the payment of postage on franked en-
velopes.
The plan of the silver people. as
| some of the other parties. is to send a
| bundle of franked envelopes, containing
party at various points. After receiving
the package the recipients address the en-
Velopes to such persons as they think the
matter would do good, and mail them.
These ere the envelopes the postmasteEs
are said to have forced the payment Of
postage on. The silver people will prob
ably call the attention of the Postmaster
GeLeral to the alleged discrimina tion
against their matter -,

To Survey Chicago Lake Front.

Commissioner Lamoreux of the general
land office has detailed men from the sur
veying division to go to Chicago and make
a survey of the land on the lake front for
which Matthias Benner and H. M. Lafol-
lette have applied. The commissioner says
that he can go no further In his investiga-
tion of the case until a survey is made to
determine If the War Department map,
which Is largely the basis of the present
claim. Is correct. 1t is expected that the
new survey will determine whether at the
time Kinzie's patent was issued there was
a strip of land between the water and the

This is an advance Of / per cent in less
