He'll Re Here Tuesdny to spend n Week

Tho Republicans at national headquarters
were delighted yesterday to receive abundant
testimony that Bryan's onslaught upon "the
enemy's country" had turned out to be q izzle
The Hon. Mark A. Hanna, Chairman Of the Re-
publican National Committee, is expected to
arrive here from Cleveland on Tuesday morn
ing.
He will remain in town little over q week
and again turn his attention to the Chicago
headquarters OF the Republican party. Con-
gresham Charles II. Grosvenor Of Ohio arrived
from Europe yesterday and was at national
headquarters. Gen. Grosvenor was asked what
he had tn say about the views Of the foreigners
on the Presidential contest. He replied:
well, they are In n good deal Of n muddle
over there. They between tho devil and
the deep sea. They don t want Bryan and they
don't want Mckinley. They don't want Repub-
lican tariff and they don't want free silver. I'm
now speaking of the views of EnRlishmen.
More than tho usual interest is felt over
there In this Presidential contest. There IL
more news and gossip cabled over and the pa
pers devote much mole space to It. In tho
mean time American credit over there is at q
standstill You cannot sell American bonds at
any price. On the other hand, there's q
greal deal of American money quietly going
across the water for investment. have known
some invested even in as low securities a. 2 per
cent. cunsolS. The feeling regarding m mRrkete and
values fuctuates as sensttively over there as 1t
does here. A little encouraging news Keeps It
up, and q little dou btful gossip sends 1t down.
But Is surprising to me what great ignorance
there Is in England on our general situation.
Here is a remarkable fact In that. with Lon
don never fun OF Americans as now, and
with \ great many of them Democrats, did not
discover more than one man who said he was
going to vote for Bryan. and that man was SEN
ator Daniel OF Virginia. met many prominent
Democrats from nearly all our States, and
Daniel was positively the only one who so de-
cared himself.
so far as Bryan q political character and
a. candidate Is concerned. | think o very fair
estimate Of him is made by the English. They
know that he happened TO talk himself
into the nomination, and they know quite
well what he represents In himself and
the elements behind his candidacy. And those
elements they do not wish to see succeed, be-
cause they know what disaster would surely re-
sut. On the other hand, they Go not like
Republican tariff policies. It makes very
serious question for England"

q coffee planter of Matagalpa. Nicaragua, now
returning TO his American once in st. Louis,
said this morning: The outlook for the COM

is very good. Our company has 1900 acres In
coffee. and as we are beginning to ind markets
in San Francisco and Holland cities instead of
New York, and at better prices, the growers are
happy.
Tho trade with the United States is con-
stantiy increasing. and there is quite a colony
OF Americans there. The money in use in tho
country is exclusively silver. Peruvian. Co
lumbian, and Central American coins circulate
entirely. 1t requires from S2.20 TO S2.3e In
silver to buy one gold dollar. aud these silver
coins of the countries mentioned carry no added
value on account OF the stamp OF the Govern
mont and only received at their bullion
value. The coinage OF silver by the United
States Government will not increase the bullion
value of silver and American coins will be
worth Just what silver coins of these countries
are worth"

FOUND Hrs ERRING WIFE.-A
dispatch from Wilmington, Del, says
William Fl. Gold, of Center Hill, Bucks
county, Pa, came down to New Cas-
tie on the steamer Major Reybold from
Philadelphia on Saturday night last to
search for his pretty twenty-three-year
old wife, who eloped from his home on
May II with William Vannote, aged
forty.six, who had been employed in
the capacity of choresman and wood
splitter at the Gold home. Immediate D
ly upon his arrival in New Castle Gold
besought the aid of the authorities n
his effort to fnd the elopels, who, he
claimed, were living in the neighbor-
hood of State Road, few miles south
of New Castle. He preferred charge
of thef6 against Vsnnote, on the
ground that the latter had stolen a
blanket from his home to put in the
carriage in which the elopers escaped.
He refused, however, to order war
rant for Vannote's arrest, claiming
that the expense was unnecessary.
Finding that the New Castle authori-
ties were unable TO assist him without
warrant, Gold made the trip to State
Road by train, where he found the
elopers and his one-year-old child,
which Mrs. Gold had taken with her
He persuaded his wife to abandon the
elopement, and they came to Whining
