Messrs. Editors While in town A.
Tuesday went 70 hear the Republican
Speakers on the silver question. Mr.. Mudd
surprised me by repeating in his speech
several times that (dear money! drove
cheap money out of circulation, and he al
so repeated il in his argument with a Mr..
Bond. Now if Mr.. Mudd il correct would
1t not be better for the Republicans to with
draw altogether from the contest and allow
the free silver party to gain Office. because
when they began to mint their cheap mon
ey II would be driven out of circulation by
the dearer money-gold and then our
medium Of exchange would be simply COLO
and copper? So we would have more gold
in circulation, according to Mr.. Mudd's
theory, by the silver party being in power
than by having the gold party in power.

DENOUNCED HE GOVERNOR.
Citizens of Frankfort Ii old a Mass Meeting
In the Court House.
Frankfort, KY, March 16.-There was
no standing room in the court house
when the indignation meeting to protest
against the action of the governor in
calling out the troops was called to order
by Mayor Julian. His Honor made q
speech telling of the conference with
Governor Bradley in which he assured the
Governor that he would give the legisla-
ture ample protection and characterized
his action in ordering out the troops as
highly partisan and unbecoming a
governor.
Gen. Henriok nominated Judge Ly-
sander Hoord as chairman of the meet
ing. AS Judge Hoord took the chair
there was wild burst of applause,
Speeches were made by Ed. Taylor, Ollie
James and others denouncing the action
of Governor Bradley in severe terms. The
crowd continued to grow and the court
house yard at twelve was filled with an
excited crowd. Heated speeches were
made by Judge Hazelrig and James
Andrews OF the legal phases of the Gov
ernor's action. Resolutions were adopted
denounoing the Governors action as q
usurpation or prostitution of mis- office for
partisan purposes, and stating that the
civil authorities had been adequate to
preserve peace. The bitterest of feeling
was manifested by those present.

FATE OF TIE BOURNE.
Owners Have Given Her Up For
Lost.

Not Much Doubt But Hers Was the Wreck
Off Pollock Rip-A Biddeford Man
Who Shipped As Her Engineer.
Boston. March ls-After hoping against
hope for 10 days and more the owners
of the big four-masted schooner Jonathan
Bourne have been forced to the conolu-
fsn that the vessel was the Inflated craft
which struck Pollock Rip shoals, in
Vineyard Sound, March 4, and that every
man on board was swept away to sail
or's grave.
The Bourne sailed from Portland
March 2, and should have been in the
locality where the wreck occurred on
March 4, under the circumstances of
wind and weather.
Nothing has been heard from her since
she left port, and 1T seems certain that
she has gone to the bottom. Had she
been blown off the coast she must have
been spoken, or had time to return, and
II any of the crew had been landed on
the coast they must have reported the
fact before this.
Although the last yestlge of the wreck
is now swept away from the spot where
she foundered, it is positively ascertained
that the sunken craft had "built" masts
AMI white mastheads, which description
corresponds exactly with the rig OF the
Bou rn o.
Although ice-laden vessele will not
sink, it seems probable that when she
struck the bottom her hull was rent
asunder at once and the ice f]oated out of
her. 1t was terrible night, and the
crew could not have long survived in the
rigging, If, indeed, they were not drowned
at once.
The report of another wreck being seen
close by the spot is no longer given ore
dence among shipping clroles for 1t is
believed that the wreckage seen came
from the Bourne.
The Jonathan Bourne was one of the
first four masters built, having been
constructed in Camden, Me-, in 1885,
Her cargo consisted of 1115 tons of ice, and
was valued at about $4,000, upon which
there is no insurance Capt. Fl. 9. Berry,
the principal owner of the Bourne. esti-
mates the value of the vessel at S25, 000
upon which there Is a partial insurance
Biddeford Man With the Bourne.
Biddeford, March 16.-Ifrthe report of
the sinking OF the Jonathan Bourne
and the loss of her crew Is true, she car
RI ed with her a Biddeford man, William
verrill, of Mt. Vernon street, who
sulppou Vi puo DUuruo lFOlu EOfGlduu
as ngfneer. &rG
. Mr.. Verrill had been working in Port
land since the first of the year, running
an engine for an ice firm. He shipped on
the Bourne which sailed from Portland,
Monday, March g. Mrs. Verrill told a
reporter that her husband intended to
ship ON the schooner Clara E. Randall,
bound form Portland to New York with
ICE. The Randall was expected to sail,
and in fact, did sail several days before
the Bourne, but through some misunder-
standing Mr.. Verrill did not sail on her.
Mrs. Verrill went to Portland dap or
two before the Randall sailed and was
then told that her husband was not to
sail on the schooner, but that he had
signed papers to snip as engineer on the
Bourne.
That was the last time Mrs. Verrill
saw her husband and she has not heard
u word from him from that day to this.

cUBANs GETTING THE BEST OF IT.
According to This Story But Wait Until
WeyIer's News Bureau Is Heard From,

Havana, March 16.-Wednesday, Gomez
and Maceo were inEthe'province of Matan-
zas, Gomez remaining in the vicinity of
Jovellanos while Maoeo moved west
The government troops directed atten-
tion to Maceo, who showed tenden cy to
retreat towards Havana. The columns
commanded by Generals Bernal and
Prats, Coils. Viounaf, Inclan and Molin,
and the Almanac battalion formed a
combination to encirole Maceo and pre-.
vent his entrance to Havana province.
1t Is learned that Maceo discovered
the combination and with Laoret
and Banderas forces, numbering over TO-
600 upon the Almanac battalion, which
happened to be raw one, recently ar
rived from Spain, broke it to pieces near
Los Palos, rode over the remains and
crossed the Havana line, leaving the gov
ernment com binatiOn in the rear
Maceo passed south Of Guindes and
struck the railroad north of BAtanzo,
removed the track and telegraph wires.
Gen. Weyler is very angry over the fail
ure of the columns to prevent Maeeo's
return, especially since he has just pro-
claimed the province free of insurgents.
The government troops are now being
rushed west In pursuit.
The Spanish hold only three towns in
the western province, Pinar Del Rio,
Candelaria and Artemisa.
