CARLISLE AND SILVER,
The Secretary Writes n Letter An.

The Secretary Writes n Letter An
swerfng Mr. Crisp's Assertions.
Secretary Carlisle has written a letter to
Representative Patterson Of Tennessee in
answer TO eX-Speaker Crisp's assertion in
a speech that the administration of the
Treasury Department was unfriendly to
silver. I'm answer to your question:" the
letter says, Il can only say that in all
the operations Of the Treasury Department
during my ADMINISTRATION of it's affairs the
legal tender gold and silver coins of the
United States have been treated precisely
alike except that greater efforts have been
made to keep silver coins in circulation
than have been made to keep gold coins
in circulation.
'The amount paid out by the department
in silver coins and silver certificates greatly
exceeds the amount paid out in gold coins
and gold certificates, and in no instance
has the least discrimination been made
against silver or its Paper representative
In no instance has silver or silver certifi-
Gates been refused in payment of a debt
CT demand Cue the government and in no
instance has the government refused to
pay silver coins or silver certificates in
d,scharge OF It's obligations when the hold
ers of the obligations demanded or re-
quested such payment. When the United
states notes or treasury notes are pre-
sented for redemption gold is paid If it
IL
yer is paid Thus the coins of the two
metals are treated exactly alike in maxi
ing payments by the government as well
as in the discharge Of debts due to the
government. In August, 1893, there was
great and unusual demand in nearly ey-
cry part OF the country for currency of
small denominations, and in its ATTEMPTS
to supply this demand the Treasury De-
partment paid out, in defraying the ex-
penSeS or the government and in exchange
Tor other forms of currency, all the silver
that could be lawfully used for these pur-
poses, SO that for a short period it was
compelled to suspend payment in standard
SILVER dollars except in the redemption of
1890. VI
My letter to the United States Senate
upon which Mr.. Crisp's statement seems to
nave Deen based, was written on the 18th
DAY OF August, 1893, and at that time there
was no free silver in the treasury; that is
tIere were no standard silver dollars in
the treasury, except such as the law re-
CURED to be held for the redemption of
silver certificates and the treasury notes
OF lS9o, and these redemptions were made
at all times during that month and every
other month when these forms of currency
were presented. During the month of
August, 1888, treasury notes to the amount
OF $l,2I3,267 were redeemed in silver and
Cancelled, and since the 1st day of Au-
gust, 1888, the total amount of such notes
redeemed in silver and Cancelled is sI9..
aS5,!22. Prior to my administrat ton of the
notes had been redeemed in silver or can

England's Flying Squadron Has to
Run for Queenstown In Distress.
Terrible gales occurred yesterday in the
west CT England and in Ireland. The force
of the wind and waves was such that
the piers at Liverpool have been washed
ever and flooded. Several derelicts and
disabled vessels have been towed into the
Mersey. The ship canal has been made
unnavigable by the storm and the walls of
the canal were severely tried by the wash
of the waves.
The flying squadron, which was the CEN
ter of 50 much attention a few weeks ago,
when the crisis between Great Britain and
Germany was acute, had to make for
Queenstown in distress, the vessels having
shipped large quantities of water No Sc
rious damage resulted to any of these
ships, however.

NEED NOT BREAK DOWN

Entirely Needless.

Entirely Needless.
VT Ii almost impossible to find persons In the
ordinary walks Of active life who not suffering,
moro or less, from want of vital force.''
1t was learned professor connected with a
New York medical college, who recently made
this remark: Men break down under the strains
OF hishpressure living" he continued; 'they over
Work the brain and neglect the body. They exer-
Csc no part Of the body except the head, and
consequently suffer from indigestion palpitation of
the heart, weak nerves and other ills that make
Life q burden"
That the above words are absolutely true is
repeatedly proved by the experience Of many
men who break down through overwork and too
close attention to business. They overtax the
nervous system, they strain their physical powers
TO the point of exhaustion, and then have to give
up the fight. This was exactly what happened in
the case Of Selden Fish, the wellknown Chicago
LAWYER as will be seen by the following statement
that he recently made: Il not diseased -
said Mr.. Fish, but simply prostrated at my nerve
xenters by too close application to business. BY
the use OF Dufys pure malt whskey, however,
was completely restored to health. I think that
this whiskey is natures great remedy for almost
any weakening or wasting disease
Thousands Of people have passed through the
same experience. When broken down and Worn
out In health, they have discovered that the only
way to regain their lost vigor Is by the use of a
pure stimulant. They have found out that the best
thing for this purpose is Duffy pure malt whiskey,
which is unexceled for its great restorative powers
No other preparation be relied on to work its
wonderful curative effects Do not let your drug

He Expires Twelve Months After
Surgeons Removed a Tumor

A TRIUMPH OF ELECTRICITY
Blood Coagulated Between the Walls

died late last night of aneurism of the
aorta. In plain English, this means q
rupture of the greater artery leading from
the heart. The aorta is composed of three
layers, and in case of aneurism these lay
ers are so ruptured as to allow the blood
to diiate the outer coat, forming a tumor
which fills with blood, thereby obstrust-
ing the circulation.
Such was Young's affiiction, and he suf-
fered tortures from it for several years
He was then resident of Denver He
lost weight and strength, and finally as q
last resort was placed upon the operating
table TO undergo the operation that was to
prolong his life or stop it altogether.
On account of the great danger and the
almost fatal result of an anesthetic
Young bravely went through the oper-
alton without anything to relieve the ter
rible agony. He was placed upon the
| table and his breast barred for the knife.
An electric battery of great strength was
at hand, provided with gold wire of thread
like diameter. This was used on account
of it's purity and freedom from noxious
elements. Then surgeon opened Young
breast, found the tunor ana inserted
thirty inches of gold wire in it and turned
on the electric current. The result was
such an intense heat that the blood in the
tumor was forced back into its proper
! channel.
Through all the horrible agony, with
electric fires burning within few inches
OF his heart, Young stood the test like a
hero, though he tainted after it was ali
over.
So powerful was the electricity that a
sponge applied to his back to complete the
circuit raised large blister.
Young was treated with great care, and
he rapidly rallied from the shock of the
operation. Thenceforth his health for q
time was excellent. In six months or SO,
however, he began to fail again. and last

effect of the climate.

SpeouIation as to Whether Secretary
Smith HtH or WiH Not hesj0n.
WASHINGTON. D. c., July 29.-One of
the most interesting unsolved problems in
Washington to-day is the question whether
Hoke Smith OF Georgia has resigned or is
about to resign as Secretary of the Interior.
There is widely prevailing impression
that the Presidents action to-day in select
ing West Virginia man, at the request of
Postmaster-General Wilson, for Union
Pacific railroad director, an office under
the control of the Interior Department,
was intended as direct snub to Secretary
Smith and was meant to be so regarded by
him, especially as there does not appear to
have been any pretense made by the Presi-
dent of asking the advice of the Secretary
of the Interior on the matter.
MIR. Cleveland's known views against
the free coinage of silver were entirely in
accord with those expressed by his Secre-
tary of the Interior in his recent Joint dis
cussion with ex-Speaker Crisp of Georgia.
But the fact that Mr.. Smiths newspaper,
the Atlanta Journal, has since come out
In favor of Bryan and Sewall ana free sill
yer and the further fact that Mr.. Smith
himself is advertised to open the cam
paign in favor of Bryan and free silver at
Augusta, Ga, on the 18th of August next
has naturally revived the rumors that Mr..
Smiths resignation will either be request
ed or enforced within very few days.
Secretary Smith, being asked this even
ing whether it was true that he proposed
to go to Gray Gables for consultation with
President Cleveland prior to entering on
the Georgia campaign, declined to make
any statement for publication.

The French socialist delegates to-day

separation idea rose TO their feet. below
