What Might Have Reen.
To tie Editor Of The Tribune:

To the Editor of The Trjbuae.
1t is instructive to consider what
would now be the state Of silver if the
golditee had been allowed to have their
way. After the demone,izaton of silver
in 1873 no silver dollars were coined un-
til after the passage Of the Bland Allison
act ip 1878. This act was srrenuously
opposed by the goldites, as was the Sher-
man act of 1880. They prophesied as
the consequence Of these acts precisely
the same results as they now predict
VIII follow the reconciliation Of silver.
"Debssed currency gold at premium
and leaving u" "dishOnored credit"
and all the other stock assumptions now
80 frequently seen IN the gold papers
were then urged against those acts, In
spite Of them the acts became laws and
under them. until the repeal Of the Sher-
man act about $40, ,0C0,UCo in dollars
we're coined and the country 8 stock of
silyer was Increased By that amount.
The reeulta predicted @ouiessedly did
not follow, On the other hand, the
goldites do not deny that the results CT
those acts we're beneficial,
Now if the goldites had prevailed the
stock of silver money IN the country
would be very much less than it is st
present, Just how much carn0t be said,
It is certain that no silver dollars
would have oeen coined, for there we're
none coined until their coinAge was com
pelled by the Bland-All.son set, Ter
hapa there would have Dcen more sub.
sidiary silver coined, halves, quarters,
dimes, etc. The stock Of silver in the
country at resent is estimated by the
secretary o.. the treasury at 500 100000.
This dimInehed by )223,0o0,000 of sill
yer doIlgla would leave @2O20G000O as
the amounr If silver which you'd pre-
sumaby now be in the country, had the

MILWAUKEE, Aug, 19,-Private dis

some foundation for it They state the

and that there is now no limit to selling
either way, Otherwise it was asserted
all agreements were in force and the as

The removal Of the selling price limit,
however, will operate to place eastern

LOSING HIS NERVE.
JACKSON. THE MURDERER OF PEARL
 BRYAN, WEAKENS.
The Big Murder Trial Continues to Draw Immense Crowds Eager to See
 the Prisoner.

CINCINNATI, O., April 24-Jackson, the murderer of Pearl Bryan, is rap idly losing his appearance of pluck and stolid indifference. The prisoner does not look particularly worried but he presents the appearance of be- ing broken with extreme cares and far from a normal condition as re- gards to health. His eyes are yellow ish and badly blood shot. probably caused by close confinement and ex- cessive. smoking and bad air As Jackson walked into court this morning he surely presented the ap- pearance of a man of nerve and pluck who is just at present taking things as they come philosophically. The interest in the trial is intense and immense crowds gather at the court house daily to catch glimpse of the prisoner.

CLEVELAND HONORED.
The New York Preacher the Re eipient of Handsome Testimony from His
 Friends.

NEW YORK, April 24.-A special to the Herald from Watertown, N. Y, says the Rev. w. N. Cleveland, the elder brother of the President, who was retired from the pastorate of the Presbyterian Church in Chaumont recently, was the recipient of a handsome testimonial from friends in that village last night. Mr. Cleveland said that he had not decided to accept call from any other church. Mrs. Cleveland is in poor health and that prevents him from making plans for the future. If he receives a call from Cleveland, Ohio, church he says he will consider it.

NEW YoRk, April 22.-The Herald says: Vim. K. Vanderbilt, the head of the syndicate that built, equipped and raced the Defender, has become the sole owner of the yacht. Mir. Vanderbilt has bought out the inter- ests of MT. c. Oliver Iselin and Mir. E. D. Morgan, as it was arrangedin the syndicate agreement that he had a right to do any time after the Amer ica's cup match had been decided. What Mr. Vanderbilt will do with the famous craft is merely matter of conjecture.

facts of the brutal character of the outrage are so well authenticated that the latter country has shown itself to be not averse to making amends. It is confidently believed by the State department authori ties that as a result of their protests Spain will tender another apology 10 the United States and will re- move the officer in command of the detachment of soldiers who directed the occurrence which is now the cause of complaint. This will be followed by the submission of 8 claim for money indemnity which is now being prepared by Mrs. Ellen Spencer Mussey, Dr. Delga- dos attorney, in this city.

SPANISH AGITATION.

 In Regard to

NEw YORK, April IA special to the World from Madrid, Spain, says A determined agitation has been started in Madrid and the provinces with view 10 making capital out of any concession the queen regent and her ministers may make to America on the Cuban question.
 The violent tone of most of the newspapers seems to have made a deep impression in official circles. The public prosecutor has institu- ted proceedings against the Paris, a republican paper, for it's article attacking the queen regent and her government for alleged surrender of the right, dignity and honor of Spain and suggesting that cards be posted on all frontiers of Spain an- nouncing: "This nation to let at economical rates. For references apply to Cleveland. The jaintress has the keys"

THE BANQUET
Given by the Knights of Honor in the Norris Building Last
 Night.

Charity Lodge. No. 1142, Knights of Honor, rendered a banquet to visiting Grand Dictator, Hon. NJ. ]. Manning, of Clarendon, last night in the Norris building.
 Prior to the banquet the Lodge held a long and interesting session at it's lodge room, over the Bank of Pine Bluff, and during the session was address ed by Grand Dictator Manning.
 It was, therefore. after 10 o'clock when the gallant Knights repaired to the banquet hall to enjoy a asumpt- uous feast, consisting of all the sub stantials and delicacies of the season, which had been prepared by the ladies of the Baptist Church.
 The tables were deliberately and handsomely decorated with all the luxuriant flowers of the season, and loaded with mellow and luscious fruits interspersed with boquets of roses-with charming women and handsome men bearing upon the lapels of their coats the bright badges of their order-all eonspired to make very pleasing and brilliant scene.
 No time was lost in being seated and all proceeded to enjoy the feast which had been spread before them.
 Presently Prof. J H. Hinemon arose and rapped for order. Soon the chatter of busy knives and forks had ceased and all was silence. Then the Professor, as toastmaster, an- nounced series of toasts, and en- tered upon a graceful discharge of his duties.
 The first toast announced was, '"The Social Attractions of Our Order,'' and Grand Dictator Man hing was called upon to respond, which he did in a very pleasing man ner.
 Then followed a selection from the Cotton Belt Orchastra, after which the next toast announced was, '.The Benefits of the Order,' and Mr. w. B. Alexander was called on to respond. Mir. Alexander, with con siderable precision, pointed out the benefits of the order most happily, and then called upon Bro. Geo. J Vining to give additional testimony to it's benefits, which the latter did most gracefully.
 "An Outsiders Estimate of Our Fraternity" was the next toast pro- posed, and MT. J ]. w. Adams, one of the invited guests, was called on to respond to the toast, which he did in a manner thatevoked the applause of his hearers.
 At this iuncture Mir. Frank smith arose and proposed a toast to The Ladies"-a large number of whom were present-and called upon Prof. Hinemon, toastmaster, to respond. The Professor happily responded
