DEPEW ABUSES TILLMAN.
Says in London that He is an Ignor-
ant Demagogue.

London, July 1.-THE News prints
column interview with Mr. Depew on
the currency question, in which he pre-
diets that in the elections the silverites
Will be SO Overwhelmingly defeated that
the free silver question will disappear
forever from American politics.
He secuted the idea that Mckinley is
not sound on the currency question,
and explains that the preference shown
for Mckinley over Reed simply shows
that a republic distrusts brilIiancy and
prefers moderate and safe men.
He thinks the cleavage manifested a
Chicago is more between the north and
south than between the east and west.
The small farmers of the south, led by
Tillman, represent the real strength of
the free silver movement. Tillman he
considers an ignorant demagogue of
no real culture and with no more know
ledge of financial problems than an
American Indian.
Altgeld. he declares, is almost an
anarchist, although a cultured man and
very different from TiIlman.
1T appears TO me- said Mr.. DepeW.
that Tillman it like a medieval mail
armOred knight, ready to fight for every
craze Altgeld is a wilde eyed revolu-
ZIONIST, ready to destroy the common
fabric in the hope that he will go in by
the ruin. Assuredly Altgeld does not
represent the great free silver section
like Tillman does. The artisans and
mechanics who are following Algeld are
too intelligent to be led aside

BLAND REFUSES TO RUN.
Wishes to Go to Congress and Not
Run for Governor.

Lebanon, No, July 14.-''Silver Dick
BANDS defeat for the Democratic nom
ination for the presidency of the United
States at Chicago last Thursday was a
keen disappointment to Missouri Dem
ocrats, and in their disappointment
over the defeat of the silver leader
many Missouri Democrats have turned
to Mr.. Bland to lead the party in Mis-
souri, this fall as the candidate for gov
ernor. He has received many kilograms
and letters the past few days urging
him to become a candidate.
Lon v Stephens, state treasurer and
leading candidate for governor, arrived
here last evening and visited Mr.. Bland
at his home. Mr.. Stephens came here
to see Mr.. Bland and ascertain from
him if he had any intention of making
to Mr.. Stephens that he was not a can
didate for governor, and would not en-
ter the race, that he preferred to go to
congress and was now a candidate for
the congressional nomination in this
(the Eighth) district.

almost of the same stripe as his royal
brother Jones. L allude to these facts
in no unfriendly spirit, but simply to
show the enticing. field that is open to
these modern adventurers in politics;
these parasites of the silver kings
whose great anxiety is to make use Of
the unlimited resources of the million
aires for their selfish purposes.
But seriously speaking, though the
silver movement has cut a broader
swath than the greenback adventure,
yet when the wind gets out of it, after
the convention, it will be found that it
has very little more of the quality of
durability in it than the older scheme
of imitation.
The solid educational campaign tried
the old scheme and found it sadly
wanting. The balloon collapsed long
before November, 1876, and the schem-
ing adventures retired into private
life, leaving their candidates in the
consomme with the memory of a few
months excitement and sad Wailings
over departed cash.
The historic analogy in finance and
politics will, in all probability, pre-
serve its parallelism to the end of the
chapter. Mckinley viii undoubtedly
be elected, in which event the gold
standard will be maintained; our in
ternatiOnal credit will be sustained,
our securities will find strong holders
both at home and abroad, panic viii
be averted, and a boom viii be in
throughout our broad land, with which
no old time revival can compare in
point of prosperity.

TRIED TO SHAVE BRYAN.
A Chicago Barber Gets Ratified on
Hearing His Customers Name.


Hearing His Customers Name.
Chicago, July 14-Mr. Bryan received
the second announcement of his nomi-
nation from his friends while he was
being shaved in the hotel barber shop.
AS soon as the first news came he
went down stairs for a shave and
mild shampoo.
Big Doc" Williams of Lincoln, who
had gone about with him everywhere
to shield him from the crowds, went
with him to the barber shop and took
a seat near by.
Mr.. Bryan sat down in the red stuffed
chair and the barber whetted his knife.
Doc" Williams kept an anxious eye
on the door and the barber.
shave you close?" asked the barber
of Mr.. Bryan.
Not very was the reply.
Then the head barber began.
He had gone carefully over the right
side of the Bryan face and had removed
the lather and several square inches of
beard from off the presidential posi-
bilities when the faithful Doc heard
loud tramping and cheers coming down
the basement stairs. Doc started for
the door to keep the crowd back, but it
was no use. They swarmed all around
the reclining candidate, got lather on
their coat sleeves, and came near being
cut by the BARRIERS razor.
You're nominated! You're nominal
ed" the crowd yelled, thinking it was
giving the first news of the final ballot.
The head barber suddenly became
nervous. He had shaved all classes
of great men, from senators to the hold
ers of worlds bicycle records but this
was the first time he had ever spread
lather in a presidential nominees eyes.
His nerves became shaky. Mr.. Bryan
was pale, toO-where the lather had
been scraped off.
Schubiger tried to go on with the
shave, but he was so nervous the crowd
that was watching him began to hold
it's breath. Mr. Bryan fidgeted around,
as if he were afraid OF being cut.
Finally he said, with a smile that
showed clear through the lather:
My dear fellow, hadn't you better
let someone else finish for your
Then Schubiger stepped back and the
crowd began TO breathe again.

REPUBLICAN PAPER BOLTS.
The Seattle Evening News Comes Out
for BRYAN.

Seattle, Wash. July 1.-THE Seattle
Evening News, a staunch Republican
organ, has declared in favor of the ma
tional Democratic ticket. Regarding
Mr.. Bryan, the News says:
He fully represents the youth. vigor
independence and inspiration of the
great west, toward which the star of
empire has been moving for a CEN
fury. He is in touch with the indus
trial masses and the producing classes
and the platform on which he stands is
as signa1ly lucid in its declaration of
true Democratic and Republican prin-
ciples as the bill of rights and as
strenuous for manhood and liberty as
the emancipation proclamation. There
can be no doubt as to the duty of every
citizen"

CORRESPONDENCE OF the AleGanuIlS 0azetlo'
WASHINGTON. March 3.
To-day is expected to be critical
one in Spain and government officials
here believe that the tide of public
feeling there will turn one way or an
other before night. Everything is
thought to depend upon the character
of the reports cabled to the Spanish
newspapers by their representatives
here regarding the action of Congress.
Under the circumstances the situation
is regarded as possibly precarious in
Spain. but confidence is expressed that
if trouble is avoided to day and no fuel
is added to the flames the danger point
will be passed and the situation will be
rapidly improved. The surprise ex-
pressed by European newspapers as 10
the action of the United States Con-
cress is repeated in guarded phrases by
.xperienced members of the diplomatic
CORPS here. The prevalent feeling was
today expressed by one very distin-
puished representative of great ns-
