MALL CLERKS MEET
MEN OF THE RAILWAY SERVICE
GATHER TO DISCUSS I'M
PoRTANT MATTERS.
NEW CLASSIFICATION LAW.
THEY WILL PUSH 1T AND ARE
ASSURED SUBSTANTIAL AID
IN CONGRESS.
Is HOSTS AT THE ENcAMPMENT.
The Clerks of This Division Will
Entertain Such of Their Fellows
as Come.

Over fifty delegates Of the Tenth Di-
vision Of the Railway Postal Clerks as
ISOLATION, representing the states of
Wisconsin, Minnesota, North Dakota,
South Dakota, Montana and Northern
Michigan, attended a special meeting
at the Windsor hotel yesterday after
noon. The purpose of the meeting was
to consider the most efficient course to
be pursued in assisting in the passage
of the new classification bill which will
come before congress at its next SEES
sion and to arrange for the entertain
ment of visiting clerks who will be in
st. Paul during the National G. A. r.
encampment.
Considerable discussion was INDUCED
In regarding the enactment of the
classification law in which the clerks
are interested. which was supplemented
by an encouraging speech from Con-
gresham Kiefer, who assured the
meeting that the bill would beyond a
doubt be passed at the next session of
congress. A letter from Congressman
Tawney, relating to the subject, was
read, which also predicted the passage
of the desired law.
In order that the interest of the bill
might be looked after by representa-
tfves Of the postal clerks association a
plan was adopted for the raising Of
$500 for the purpose Of maintaining a
special legislative committee in Wash
ington during the sitting of congress
whose duty it will be to personally urge
upon congressman the passage of the
measure and keep the association post
ed upon its progress.
u Regarding the appointment Of a con-
ference committee to act with the gov
eminent officials in the perfection of
the railway mail service, a letter was
read from United States Inspector
Barclay, Of the Tenth division heart
lily indorsing the plan and expressing
belief that 1t would be Of material
assistance to both the clerks and the
government.
1t has heretofore been customary for
the railway clerks in a city where a
@. A. r. encampment has been held to
personally look after the members Of
the association who are in attendance
and this year in st. Paul the establish
ed precedent will be followed The To-
cal members of Division No. 10 will es-
tablish headquarters in the German
American bank building, where on a
smaller scale, committees will be main
tanned the same as by the general cit
liens committee. It is expected that
there will be over 300 railway clerks in
the city during the encampment.

FORD BOUND OVER.
Charged With Breaking Into "a 500
Car.

Frank Ford, arrested Some days ago
on charge Of breaking into a freight
car on the SOP road and stealing a
wagon load Of cloth and shoes, had an
examination before Judge Orr yester-
day. The car which was cleaned out
was. at the time. at Cardigan Junction.
in Ramsey county. The goods were
taken to Minneapolis and a part Of
them recovered, but as the crime was
committed in this county Ford was
brought here for trial. The evidence
brought out the fact, among other
things, that two alleged private de-
fectives who hail from Minneapolis
and answer to the names of Brown
and Mcguire, have reduced the de-
tective business to science Ford and
fellow named Gilmore hired an ex-
pressman named F'leir to haul the
goods from point in the woods near
NeWaBrighton to Minneapolis AS the
expressman demanded 81 for his work
and neither OF the men had the
amount, the goods were stored In
Fleir's barn for day or SO. When
the goods were removed from the barn.

NOT A MOVE MADE
In the BOnrd of Public Works Mat

Contrary to expectations, nothing was
done in the board Of public works mat

there was nothing to be said, and
nothing to be done, until the new COM
missioner attempts to take possession
of the Office tomorrow morning. Mr..
B6nholZer said practically, the same
thing.
City Clerk Matt Jensen sent a copy
of the publication to the mayor, comp
troller, board Of public works, cor
poratiOn attorney and city treasurer,
so that there can be no misunderstand-
ing as to the ordinance going into eff
feet The publication is merely a copy

carnee with Ford, and the stuff was
hauled out. near Long slfkes1,s About
this time the Minneapolis detectives
heard of the case, and, as a result. the
cloth taken from the car was turned
up, and all but bolt returned to the
company. Attorney Ayers, of Mime
apolis, defended Ford in the court yes
terday. and after the evidence for the
prosecution had been put in, a motion
was made to dismiss the case. The
court refused, and without offering
any testimony in his own behalf Ford
was held to await the action Of the
grand jury. Five cases of shoes which
were taken from the car have not been
recovered, although Messrs. Brown
and Mcguire. the private detectives,
are looking for them, as are also the
city detectives in both st. Paul and
Minneapolis.

Herr Most for Coli

Here is pretty kettle Of fish. With
stunning headlines, as if it settled the
fact of McKinley's election, the Pitts
burg Dispatch announces that Herr
Most, the leader of the American anar-
chists, has declared himselflto be sin
cere believer in the single gold stand
ard II am, as all anarchists know"
says Herr Most, "a better gold standard
advocate than even the most rabid Wall
street banker" Herr Most also an
nounces that the Bryan -Sewall combi-
nation will not get any anarchist votes"
Does this prove that the Mckinley Re-
publicans are anarchists, socialists and
repudiators? The logic the Republicans
apply to the Chicago convention and the
Democratic candidates certainly war
rants that conclusion. Herr Most beats
Wall street in his advocacy of a single
standard representing the highest in
trinsic values. II would have the karat
of diamonds" he says. ''if diamonds
| could be utilized. as the maximum of ex
| change. And, further" says the anar-
chist leader, "shoe nails might as well
be put in circulation as currency as sill
ver." Here Herr Most gets in accord
with Wall street. That is the street $
favorite way of speaking of silver. Herr
Most should betake himself TO Mark
Hanna and he can probably secure Il
| profitable campaign engagement

What Free Coinaxe neans

Those newspapers which tell their
readers that under free coinage at 16 to
1 the government would pay $1.29 an
ounce for 50 cents worth of silver, need
elementary financial catechisms more
for acknowledgements than publication.
Under free coinage the government
would buy no silver. The last silver pur-
chase law we had was given to us by
John Sherman and William Mckinley
1t was never in favor with free coinage
men, and was accepted by them only be-
cause they lacked the votes to secure
something better.
Free coinage, so far from requiring
the government to buy silver, merely re-
uuires it to stamp the dollar marks upon
silver as it now does upon gold, and to
return the silver so stamped to the per-
son who may have delivered it. The OBJ
lection which all persons except gold
monometalliStS raise relates. not to this
stamping, but to the amount of grains
which it is proposed to put into each
piece of silver stamped. If the amount
suggested We're 115 grains instead of
4125, they would not object They
would describe such a silver dollar as
equal to the gold dollar because the
value of the bullion in each would be
about the same. But free coinage men
say that the value of the bullion in each
would be the same If the quantity re-
uuired were 412.5 grains, the point of
their argument being that silver bullion
is more than sixteen times as cheap as
gold bullion now, because, and only be-
cause, government gives to gold ficti-
tious value through the coinage which
it denies to silver. This is the silver
coinage issue. And to imply that free
coinage men are asking the government
to buy silver at an inflated price, or to
buy it at all, is to make a msrepresenta-
ton which admits of no explanation but
malice or ignorance.-Clevelan Re
