AT Ironwood IL large crowd was in
waiting. Ii was composed for II greater
part of miners, and when Mr.. Bryan
emerged fie,n the Car they gave him an
enthusiastic welcome. He spoke from
gaily decorated platform erected II few
hundred yards from the train, and for
the most part his speech dwelt on an cx
PLANTATION ,of the statement that under a
gold standard the dollar would rise in
value and property would fall in proper
ton to that rise.
Fifteen minutes later Mr. Bryan ad-
dressed Il similar crowd ut Bessemcr
botl iii plumbers and enthusiasm.
In this speech Mr.. Bryan ridiculed the
flood Of money ideas, advanced by the
supporters of the gold standard, saying
that he was not afraid Of IL flood of
money, ;tnd that those who were appar-
emily af,'aid of such conditions were gen
orally those who did not have money
enough to provide for the winters sup

'In studying the money question
there is one thing that you must learn
before anything else can be learned, and
that is that you can affect the value of
the dollar when you affect. the number of
dollari.'

Mr.. Bryant "The difference between

We have greenbaeks out now and those
greenbacks draw 40 interest and the Gov.

those grcenbacks with an issue Of bonds
and then let the banks issue money on
the bonds, the banks will then draw from
the people of the country the interest
which the people now have. 1t is good
for the banks, but hard on the people,

Injustice Was Done.

A short time ago THE News printed in
formation furnished by the police that Mr..
T.. w. Dolliver, agent of Gilmour's Di-
rectory Of Trade and Commerce, a we'll
known publication house in New York,
was engaged in questionable, If not un-
lawful, work in. this vicinity. Thu
NEWS was misled in the matter. This
paper has received sufficient evidence To
establish the fact that Mr.. Dolliver is a
straightforward agent engaged in strictly
legitimate business and this means is
taken 10 counteract a false impression.
The following self-explanatory letter
was received by the chief of police:
To the Chief Of Police, Providence, II. T..
Dear Sir-Our agent, Mr.. Il. ". Dol
liver, has informed us that you prohib-
tied his working in the city of provi-
dence. When we sent Mr.. Dolliver to
Providence, we were not aware that we
were breaking any law. We have prom
ised our subscribers that we would give
them a complete list of the merchants
and manufacturer OF Providence, as wei
as the other cities. This can be done
only by personal canvass. Mr.. Delivers
duty is to call upon each firm, on1 ask
them IL they anticipate making any
changes. He also secures the names and
business addresses of these firms, and il
the moment be propitious, he ~solicits
their advertisement, but he is cautioned
to use no compulsion, and offer only
legitimate Inducements. is our lin. of
business has suffered OF late from mounte-
banks, we recognize your laudable ambi-
ton to protect your citizens from
further imposition. SO, although we have
incurred losses through the enforced
idleness of our employee, we condone your
action, because il will ultimately benefit
us, and all other legitimate directory
firms.
Hoping that this explanation will suffice
to reinstate MIR. Dolliver i'm your good
opinion, we remain

LAST TRIBUTE OF RESPECT.
Cowes and Its Neighborhood CrowdedWitf
Visitors This Morning.

CowEs, Isle of Wight, Feb. 5.-In spite
Of the damp and foggy weather, Cowes
and its neighborhood was crowded with
visitors this morning. Business all over
the Isle of Wight , was practically sus-
pended and the mass of inhabitants flock
ed TO this part of the island TO pay a last
tribute of respect TO the remains OF Prince
Henry of R~attenberg, husband OF Prin-
cess Reatrice, who died from African
fever, Jan. 20.
The Princes body was brought from
Funchal, capital of the island of MADEIRA,
TO England. by the British cruiser
Blenheim. The remains We're landed at
Portsmouth yesterday and were trans
ferred to the royal yacht Albert. On
board the last named vessel they were
conveyed to Cowes, escorted by the Prince
of Wales, Princess Leatrice, the Duke OF
Ccnnaught, and Princes Louis and
Francis OF Battenberg. Upon the arrival
at Trinity pier here, the body was met by
Queen Victoria and the Battenberg child
rem. The remains rested on board the
Al bert all night.
Half-masted flags and other emblems
of mourning were displayed on all sides
ashore. Nearly all those present from the
different towns on the island or from the
mainland were dressed in mourning or
half mourning, and the roadstead, where
rode at anchor a magnificent squadron OF
warships, including the new flying squad
ron, was most picturesque, the effect be-
ing added to, instead of lessened, by the
frowning skies and vaporish atmosphere.
On board the Albert, beneath a canvas
canopy, the casket containing the remains
Of the Prince rested upon a bier, covered
with a British ensign and surrounded by
a guard Of marines whose red coats con-
trasted finely with the otherwise sombre
surroundingsA

SIGN may observe a long line OF canvas
hose stretched along the ground half way
round the ruins. They may wonder why
it is there. They will not see what earth
ly use a long line OF hose is where there
are but the charred reminders of 4 con-
fiagration. They viii observe further
that this hose is, its entire length, sever
al times sitter than a brass monkeys
tail. And upon examination they will
discover that its interior consists OF a SOL
i'd mass of ice. This was occasioned for
the simple reason that the hose was not
detached from the hydrant for several
hours after. the last spark had expired
Everybody is convinced that Captain b.
n. Potter's ~well-known ssgacity was not
in any way responsible for this. IL the
visitor, however, does not care 10 see
that hose thus e~xtravagantly exposed, he
is at liberty to thaw it out, and after he
has done that he may procure the hose

quarters o ( the Edgewood +. &C.
THE NEWS representative visited the
ruins last night. In his extreme inno-
cencc he remarked to a stander-by:
"Wonder what they leave that hoss on
the ground frozen stiff that way for"
sob, probably that enthusiastic com
pany is waiting for another fire TO melt
