ST. LOUIS, June 12.-Every member

SIXTEEN TO ONE OR BUST"
The Slogan of the Democrats of South
Carolina.

NEW YORK, June 12-"Sixteen to
one or bust" was the answer Governor
John Gary Of South Carolina gave to-
day at the Waldorf Hotel to the ques-
ton whether his State would continue
to advocate free silver or not. The
Governor Is here on business for his
State. In course of a conversation with
reporter he said, in substance: South
Carolina is for Senator Tillman for
President, and we hope to see him
nominated. He is strong man, and
on the stump Mckinley could not de-
bate with him at all. The free-silver
Democrats will name the ticket at Chi
cago, and what is more, it will be elect
ed. All the Western and Southern and
enough Northwestern States will vote
for the free-silver Democratic candi-
date to elect him. / have calculated
that we shall win and have fifty-four
electoral votes to spare. 1t is now a
question of the East, the gold section,
against all the rest of the United
States. The Democrats in the East
and the Republicans really stand to-
gether for gold, and there is no differ
ence between them. We do not expect
tc get the Democratic votes in the
East"

EGYPTIAN EXPEDITION.
Lord Salisbury Explains Its Extent
and Object.

LONDON, June 12.-In the House or
Lords this afternoon Lord Rosebery
asked if the Premier would explain the
extent and object of the British Egyp-
tan expedition up the Valley or the
Nile into the Soudan.
Lord Salisbury. in reply to the ques-
tfon of the Extremely, said that for
long time the Government had been
aware that sooner or later an eXpedi-
ton into the Soudan would be neces-
sary for the purpose of recovering the
territory which Egypt had lost, and
that suddenly they had been confronted
with the fact that the Dervishes were
menacing Kassala. The expedition
was then decided upon. The present
objective point of the expedition, he
said, was Dongola, and the commander
of the expedition, General Sir Herbert
Kitchener, had been given perfectly
free hand until he should reach and
occupy that place. The occupation of
Dongola alone, he said, was an advan-
tage, and furthermore it was on the
road to Khartoum.
