my day the senate was one Of the most
digniifed legislative bodies in the world.
The great men of that time were true
statesmen, whose object was the main

vsncement of the interests OF the coun-
try. There was no such thing as the
hurrah OF the senate of to-day. There
seems to be a great deal of nonsense in

the time he could spare from his studies
to writing poetry. While still at school
he published volume that attracted

Hawthorne he never saw after leaving

only modest, but bashful to a painful de-
gree. so much so that very few of his
fellow students knew him intimately.

BOND ISSUE ILLEGAL,
Serious Condition Confronting the
City Authorities OF Allephenv

Pittsburg, Pa, Sept. IAN issue>o Of mu-
nicipal bonds to the amount of 81 400 600,
made recently by the city of Allegheny, is
pronounced illegal by the attorney OF the
firm Of whann & schlesInger, of New York.
who were awarded portion OF the issue.
This conclusion is based on the fact that
the call for the election to authorize the
bond issue was published in three Pitts
burg newspapers, instead of in the news
paper OF the district where the bonds were
to be issued, as the law requires. If this
Is correct, all the bonds issued by the city
of Allegheny since 1874 are involved. A
special meeting Of the finance committee
was held yesterday, and Q subcommittee

will confer with the city attorney on
Wednesday. City Comptroller Brown, of
Allegheny, says:
'The situation is most serious one,
but think We can straighten it out by an
election, and by special act of the legisla-
ture. Had it not been for this silver scare
this thing would never have happened. We
have sold our bonds, under the same condi-

THE MODERN ALADDIN.
How Bryan Ignores the Experience
Of This and Other Nations with
Free Coinage.

MI. Bryan states that he believes the
free coinage of silver, by our govern
ment alone, at the ratio of is TO 1,
per ounce; and he never tires Of alleg-
ing that our government is strong, and
rich, and powerful enough TO accomplish
this result without waiting or asking for
the cooperation Of any other country.
In making this prediction Mr.. Bryan
ignores the experience of this and other
nations Of the world in regard to the
coinage of silver during the past 100
years; but waving that, let us see what
his proposition involves.
/ presume it will be conceded by Mr..
Bryan and his adherents that the price
of silver bullion in this country cannot
be affected. without at the same time
affecting it everywhere, and that the
rise in the price will apply to all silver,
whether In bars or wares as well as in
coin, throughout the world.
The figures / shall give, except those
showing the production of silver since
1892, are all taken from a report sub
mitted by Mr.. Voorhees,, a free silver
mittee of the Senate, March 3, 1894,
which report is entitled Coinage Laws
of the United States from 1892 to 1894.
with an Appendix Relating TO Coins and
Currency; Fourth Edition, Revised and
Corrected to August 1, 1894. Prepared
Under the Direction of the Committee"
According to that report, page Pa,
the production of silver Ia the world
from 1893 to 1892 amounted to 1872
5O7. 716 ounces, and there has been pro-
