CHICAGO, July 9.-Sixteen delegates
composing the minority committee on
resolutions, find nine declarations in the
report of the majority to which they
cannot give their assent.
A substitute for the financial plank in
majority report is as follows:
"We declare our belief that the exper-
iment on the part of the United States
alone of the free coinage of silver and the
change of the existing standard of value,
independent of the action of any other
great nations, would not only imperil
our chances, but it would retard, or en-
tirely prevent, the establishment of in
ternational bimetalism, to which the
efforts of tie government should be
steadily directed. It would place the
country upon silver basis, impair con-
tracts, disturb business, diminish the
purchasing power of the wages of labor,
and inflict irreparable evils upon our
nations commerce and industry. Until
international cooperation among the
leading nations for the free coinage of
silver can he secured, We favor the rigid
maintenance of the existing gold stand
ard as essential to the preservation OF
our national credit.

sEUFERT CASE RESUMED.
The Jury Hears Evidence on the
Question OF Damages.


The Oregonian says the trial of the
cases of the United States vs. Seufert
Bros, to condemn right of way for the
proposed Cello boat railway, was re-
sumed in the United States court yes
terday forenoon, the jury having re-
turned from an inspection of the prop
erty in question Wednesday evening.
Mr.. Seufert was placed on the stand
and was examined as to the value of the
land, and everything proceeded smoothly
until his attorney, Judge Bennett, asked
what the land was valuable for.
Mr.. Seufert replied: "For fisheries
and the terminals of railroad or rights of
way of railroads.
Judge Bellinger here interfered and
said he should not allow such ques-
tion, so revolving to his sense of justice.
1t was fair for the jury to consider what
damage the fishing interests of the de-
fendant might sustain from the appro-
priation of his land, but it was not
right that public necessity should be
made the basis for an appraisement of
otherwise almost valueless lands. That
any enhancement in value the land may
receive on account of the government
desiring right of way for a boat rail-
way through it should be brought into
the suit could not be allowed, and he
should go instruct the jury.
Judge Bennett said the supreme court
had ruled on cases bearing on this point,
and he was ready to present authorities.
Judge Bellinger remarked that he had
examined authorities on the question,
and that he should not allow the ques-
ton. Council might take an exception
if he wished. The exception was taken
and the examination proceeded.
Later, when witness was on the stand
explaining the damages it would be to
defendants fishing privileges, if he had
to haul his fsh in wagons or on a tram
way across the boat railway to the o. r.
& N. road. United States Attorney
Murphy asked him how the fish were
brought from several different wheels to
the fish house. Hereplied, sIn wagons"
Mr.. Murphy then asked if the fish would
be any more injured if they were hauled
200 feet or so further to the o. 2. &. n.
line. The witness seemed inclined to
avoid direct answer, and began to talk
about various roads.
The court asked him, rather sharply,
if he could not answer the question, and
told him he did not have to consider the
question of roads, as it was to be sup
posed that the road was there if the fish
were hauled. The witness then admit
ted that the fish would not be materially
injured by the additional haul.
The argument in the case will be made
this forenoon, and it is supposed that the
case will 60 to the jury about noon.
Through trains on the o. R. & N will
run via Umatilla, Walla Walla and Pen
dleton. Through sleepers, first and Sec
| ond class will run in connection with the
Union Prcific, the same as heretofore.
A through first-class sleeper from Port

the Great Northern railway.

STILL ANOTHER
Bryan Silver Club Formed in the Western
Part of the City

fart OF the (lty
A West End Bryan Free Silver club
was organized last evening in Paulk's
large hall at station D. The club is
non-partisan in character, and secured
thirty-four signatures in five minutes.
The president is Mr. Badam of the firm
OF Grannis & Co., who is an ardent free
silver advocate, and who was the unau-
lmous choice of the club as it's standard
bearer.
On taking the gavel, which he said
must be exchanged for a silver one, he
sounded the keynote of the campaign
by declaring that the. free silver fight
now on was a battle between bond
holders and bread winners. 1t is the
sacred duty of each member of this
community to join this club and aid in
what is probably the last effort in this
gold-ridden country to free itself from
the vampire of money greed. 1t is only
two months and every one can afford to
put in that time with his best efforts at
spreading the light of bmetallism. His
remarks were greeted with cheering
round of applause.
Mr.. Reed of the Crystal market was
made secretary He spoke to the point
and the great and only issue before. the
American people today. The club will
hold public meetings every alternate
Monday in Paulks large hail. where
able silver speakers will enlighten the
voters. Street speaking will also be held
