BRYAN AND MKINLEY.

In his speech at Clarksburg, w. Va,
on Thursday, Mr.. Bryan quoted from
two speeches OF Mr.. Mckinley, one on
the Allison Bland bill of 1878 and one
on the Sherman bill of 1890 Mr..
Bryan's object was to show that his
rival for the Presidency now holds a
position as to silver different from that
he held as late as six years ago, and
opposed to it. He might have brought
the record down later, for there are
words spoken and written by Mr.. Nc
Kinley as late as three years since in
(which the same sentiment as TO silver
was expressed as in 1890 and in 1878.
Il cannot be denied that Mr. Mckinley
has changed ground. nor that he waited
to do so until the Republican National
Convention was held nor that his pur-
pose In waiting was 10 see on what side
the feeling of his party and OF the coun-

Secretary Carlisle Furnishes Information
on the Subject.
Louisville, Ky, October Am reply
to letter from the COurier-Journal to
Secretary Carlisle, asking for Informs
ton concerning the coinage Of silver,
Secretary Carlisle replies in part as fol-
lows:
From January l, 1896, to September
30 1896. standard silver dollars have
been coined al the m!nts OF the United
States TO the amount of $13,912, 5lZ.
Since November /, 1898, the date OF the
repeal of the purchasing clause OF the
so-called Sherman act, standard silver
dollars have ben coined in the United
States TO the amount of s17 1853, 491, or
more than twice as much as was com
ed during the whole period Of our MS
tory prior to 1878.
"The coinage Of standard silver dol
lars is going on every day at our minis.
and during the last month it amounted
10 $1,000 900. About the same amount
will be coined during the present month.
i THE seigniorage, or gain, when mas
been added to the circulation on account
of the coinage since November l, 1898
is about $500, 900, and the seign.oragee'
or gain. in the coinage OF last monlh
was about 100000.
The coinage is being done under au'
thority conferred upon The Secretary o.
the Treasury by the third section OF th'
act of July Il, 1890, which provides
That the Secretary Of the Treasur!
shall each month coin two million ounce;
of the silver bullion purchased under
the provisions of this act into STANDARD
silver dollars until the first day OF July
1891 and after that time he shall colI
of the silver bullion purchased undel
the provisions of this act as much as may
be necessary TO provide for the redemp'
zion of the treasury notes herein pro-
vided for. and any gain or seignioragt
arising from such coinage shall be ac'
counted for and paid into the treasury.
This law is still in force, no part OF
the act having been repealed except The
clause which directed the Secretary Of
the Treasury to continue The purchase
of silver bullion and issue treasury note;
in payment for it, and the coinage i;
being made from the bullion belonging
to the government purchased before the
repeal of that clause

(Copvri4hted. 1896. Associated Press.)
LONDON. October 4.-The brilliant
fetes and military paraces attending the
opening of the iron gates of the Danube
are looked upon as being of the highest
political importance and as indicating that
the Austro-R oumanian entente has rlpen-
ed into the adhesion of Roumania to the
Dreibund and it is stated that a military
convention between Austria and Roumania
was concluded during the stay Of Emperor
Francis Joseph at Bucharest. binding both
powers to prevent Russia from crossing
the Danube.
1t is further stated that a gigantic en-
cheering scheme was also considered at
Bucharest. the plan being to connect
Bucharest with the Black Sea by canal
and TO make Bucharest a sea fortress and
port.
After long discussion, the new Tenu-
sian treaty between France and Italy has
been signed. thus solving one Of the most
ticklish questions between the two coun-
tries. the adjustment of which would have
been impossible a little while ago. Italy
under the new treaty, surrenders her
rights to try her own subjects in her own
courts in Tunis and receives in exchange
commercial concessions, among which Is
the right to have Italian vessels admitted
TO French ports under the same conditions
as French vessels, italy making similar
concessions to France.

will without doubt contain a majority
in favor OF the free coinage Of silver.
The Journal has obtained through lis
correspondents and National Commit
teemen conservative opinions on the
probable result in every Congressional
district in the country. According TO
these estimates the Representatives in
the Fifty-hfth Congress will stand as
follows:
For Free Silver -. ...... ...... .1S5
For GOld...... ...... ...''. ''''.loZ
Doubtful. ...... ..... .'''' '''' u
There will be S57 members OF the next
House, making 179 a majority OF the
whole. The free silver men are certain
of majority, and If they carry one-halt
OF the Congressional districts which are
set down as doubtful their majority Owe?
the gold men will be OF good size. This
will enable the silver men 10 organize
the House and control the committees.
In the estimate nearly all the Repub.t-
cans are set down as being for gold, but
Ii is certain that several Of them will
vote for free silver when the question
comes before the House.
The estimate of National Committee
man John T. McGraw, of this State, is as
follows:

West Virginia Democrats will elect
three certainly, and most probably the
full delegation OF four members to the

ton if elected, or any part of the dele
cation that may be elected, will be most
certainly for free silver. Silver in this
State is stronger than the normal vote
of the Democratic party.
