DENIES THE STATEMENT.
Uncle Sam Has Not Appropriated One
Hundred Thousand Dollars for
Foolishness.


Mr. p, S. Chappelle, special agent of
the treasury department, called at the
Astorian office last evening and called
attention to an article appearing in
the Astoria Herald June 18th concern
ing the recent Chinese cases in Astoria.
Mr.. Chappelle denounced the article as
a slander and an absolute untruth in
every particular. He intimated that
Judge Bellinger, of the United States
court, was incensed about the matter,
and proposed TO see that such libelous
statements were not made by Astoria
newspapers in the future.
"The United States jury, or any of
Its members would certainly not make
any such statements as imputed to
them The government has not appro-
prlated 100000 for the purposes mem
toned. Neither myself nor Inspector
Cullom are paid by fee; we receive
regular salaries. The cases now pend
ing will be pushed to trial. Convic-
tions will certainly be made in a num-
Der of them. 1t Is true some of the
arrested parties in Astoria We're al
lowed to so on bonds for each other,
but in all cases the district attorney
passed on the bonds. and they are now
in his possession, We are not working
for fun, and certainly expect to make
at least some of the cases stick. ow-
ing to the pressure of business in the
court, these cases have been carried
over to the next term. In the mean
time there win be another grand jury
impaneled."

Herald.
STRONG FOR SOUND MONEY
Hereafter to Oeeupy Only Place in the
Ranks Says His Attachment TO the
rarty Is too Stroag TO See
II Wrecked by SilYef

Washington, June 1s.--In reply to q
request from the New York Herald
for a statement concerning the DEM
ocratic situation, President Cleveland
tonight sent the following to that news
paper:
Il have made no figures as to the
probable action Of the delegates al
ready chosen, or to be chosen, to the
Democratic convention. but / refuse to
believe that when the time arrives for
deliberate action there viii be en-
grated upon our Democratic creed
demand for the free unlimited and In
dependent coinage OF silver. I cannot
believe this, because know the Dem
ocratIc party is neither unpatriotie nor
foolish. and because it seems clear 70
me that such action win infilct very
great injury upon every interest Of
our country. which it has been the
mission OF the Democracy to advance.
and will result in lasting disaster to
our party organization. There is little
hope that, as a means OF success this
free silver proposition. after its thor
ough discussion during the political
campaign, will carry a majority of the
votes OF the country. 1t must be that
the many illusions influencing those
now relying upon this alleged panacea
for their ills win be dispelled before
the time comes for them to cast the
ballots which will express their sober
second thought. The adoption by the
Democracy of this proposition would.
believe, give to cur Opponents en- sc-
vantage, both in the present and the
future. which they don't deserve.
my attachment to true Democracy
is so strong that consider its success
as identical with the promotion of the
eountry's good. This ought sufficiently
to account Tor my anxiety that no mis-
take be made at our party convention
In my opinion, no effort should be
spared to secure such action Of the
delegates as will avert party demoraIi-
zation. 1t is the place for consultation
and comparison of views. and those
Democrats who believe in the cause
of sound money should be heard and
be constantly in evidence A cause
worth fighting for is worth fighting for
to the end II sound money Democrats
waver in their support, there is dan
ger Of mistake being made. I am
very far from arrogating to myself the
controlling influence upon the policy
of my party, but as an unfIinching
Democrat, who has been honored by
his party, and who desires hereafter
no greater political privilege than TO
occupy the place OF private in the
ranks, hope may not be blamed for
saying this much at this time in the
interest Of that grand old organization,
so rich in honorable traditions. so just
ly proud of its achievements, and al
ways sound. undaunted, and brave In
its battles for the peoples welfare"

McKINLEY ANp MoRToN.

st. Louis, June 1.-THE sentiment re-
gardIng the vice-presidential question
rapidly crystalized today when 1t be-
came definitely known that Governor
Morton. of New York. was willing to
accept. II the nomination came to him
with any degree OF unanImity. It
seems almost reasonably certain now
that the ticket will be Mckinley and
Morton.

row. The action OF the committee on

cations are that the sensational climax

Miller. Cornelius n. Bliss and s. v.
r. Cruger went at once to the Ohio
headquarters to ask about the rumor
that had been spread that Ohio was
favorable to Morton. Miller, when he
returned. said:
"ohio will not support Morton. Han
mas only promise to New York was
that If the delegation was a unit on
one man for vice-presldent. he would
throw his influence towards the selec-
tion. We are against Morton. and
Hanna will not stand for any promise
to Platt.''
Platt declined in the most positive
manner TO say anything for publica-
tion.
Perhaps the most curious feature of
the evening was the announcement by
Hackett, of New York. that Foraker
had told him that IL Hanna's loyalty
towards the Warner Miller faction in
New York kept him from an express
sion for Morton and bade him assist
Miller. he, Foraker, could deliver twen-
ty-four Of the forty-six votes of Ohio
for Morton, besides many other Nc
Kinley states.
Early in the evening the estimated
strength for Morton. without MiKin-
ley's managers assistance, was given
as 397 votes.

even though there was no immediate

a petition was largely circulated yes

ward 10 Governor Lord deprecating the
sending OF troops here and calling for
their removal. This document was
signed by many. among them being
merchants who afterwards said they
were very glad anyway, that the troops
were here. one gentleman when asked
10 sign the document, refused in no un-
certain language. and gave as his rea-
son his belief that II there was only
one fisherman on the river who desir-
ed 10 fish at prices offered. he should
be permitted 10 do so. II II took the
entire United States army 10 protect
him. Several other prominent citizens
were strong In their statement that no
matter what the circumstances. 80 long
as the civil authorities OF the city and
county had taken action which seemed |
10 them just and needful. the citizens
should stand by them TO the last drop |
OF blood, and they refused TO sign the
petition on that ground. one OF them
remarked that TO return the militia
now would be only to put a license on
lawlessness. He said: THE protec-
tion furnished at the present is a guar |
antee that the same protection can be |
furnished ia the future. II certainly
seems to me that II those who have |
stated that they are afraid to fish now
because OF danger next season. would |
only consider that II necessary next |
season they can have the same protec-
ton OF hand. with a sufficient number
OF patrol boats on the river TO enable
them TO pursue their occupation In per-
feet safety. they would not now hesi-
tate TO carry out their convictions. II
the fishermen's union cannot entirely
control all its members. they will. as
some OF them stated today, heartily
join the militia In preserving peace and
protection to persons and property. 1t
suggests itself to me also. that the
boats up the river under command OF
Sheriff Hare should be augmented by
others all along between here and
Eagle Gin. understand that fishing
up on that portion of the river is large
Iy increasing. and thirty new boats
went out today, Such a patrol would
Afford the fullest possible protection
