Letter of Warning From Senator Chand.
Ter of New Hampshire.

WASHINGTON, Dec. Ex-senator
Chandler of New Hampshire has writ
ten letter to Washington paper In
which he says:
IF the secretary of the treasury and
his single gold standard associates will
cease their demand for impossible cur
reney legislationGongress will pass the
Necessary appropriation bills. probably
take care of Hawaii and Cuba, there
will not be serious party division dur
ing this session and there will be an
adjournment in May.
Business will revive, the treasury re-
ceipts will equal the expenditures, the
balance of trade will continue in our
favor and the Republican party will in
November, 1898, elect a majority of the
house in the fifty-flfth congress.
ON the other hand, If Secretary Gage
continues to press upon congress a bill
the object of which he says is first to
commit the country more thoroughly to
the gold standard, and the immediate
erect of which is to throw doubts upon
the sincerity of the presidents declara-
ton in favor of continued efforts to Sc
cure bimetallism, political turmoil will
arise in congress which will split the
now united Republicans into fragments,
while 1t will unite and consolidate the

Japan May he Called to Time For the
Killing of American Sailors.
WASHINGTON, Dec 22.-The depart
ment of state has undertaken an inves-
tigation of two very disagreeable incl
dents that may contain in themselves
the germs of serious trouble in the near
future. These are the killing by Jap
anese of two sailors attached to the
United States fleet on the Asiatic sta,
ton.
The exact conditions under which the
killing occurred are not known here yet,
and the state department is trying to
learn them through the United States
minister to Toxic and the United States
eonsuls in Japan preliminary to deter
mining what steps shall be taken to Sc,
cure reparation if it shall be found that
the killing was. as is expected, unjusti-
fable.
The first killing was of n sailor NAM
ed MontSor cry, attached to the gun
boat Yorktown while she was on the
Asiatic station, and the last was that
OF Frank Epps, sailor. native of New
York. AMI an apprentice on the flagship

QUINCr> WINS AGAIN.
Boston's Mayor once More
Defeats ex-MayorNv,,rt;s
SMALL VOTE POLLED BY Mr.. RlLay
The Democrats Make Gains In the subur,
ban and Back Bay Republican Wards,
but None of Special Notice In
Their Own Stronghold.

BOSTON, Dec. 22.-Mayor Quincy was
reelected in the municipal election by a
decreased plurality over ex-Mayor Cur
tbs, his opponent of two years ago. and
the city, which was Republican at the
state election last month, is again Dem
ocratic by about 400. The attempt to
split the Democratic vote in the city
by vigorous work on the part of Thomas
Riley, running as a Bryan Democrat,
proved futile. His rallies were crowded
and his audiences apparently intensely
loyal, but less than 5000 voters sup
ported him at the polls, the Democrats,
as rule, remaining loyal.
Notwithstanding the strong effort
which was made by the Republicans to
get out heavy vote in the suburban
and Back Bay wards. which usually
poll heavy Republican majorities, May
or Quincy made great gains over the
vote for Williams at the state election,
while in some cases there was decided
falling off in the vote of the opposition.
On the other hand. the usually strong
Democratic wards, where the registra-
ton for this election has been very
heavy. did not show any special gains
for the Democratic candidate, and in
some cases there was a decrease.
The surprise of the election was un-
doubtedly the small vote for Riley.
Even in the wards where he made his
greatest effort and where he was back
ed by young politicians who claimed to
have strong backing, only few were
found in his support at the polls, while
in his own precinct he received but two
votes. With such a spirited campaign
and with such apparent interest in the
outcome of the contest together with
the greatest registration in the history
OF the city it was anerally supposed
remarkably heavy vote would be cast.
1t was therefore disappointing to find
that the total vote was but little over
that of two years ago, when the regis
tration was 91,4S3, to 1O24S at the pres
ent election. Where at the last contest
between Quincy and Curtis "a per cent
of the registration voted less than 20
per cent waWolled at the present cleo
ton.
The total vote, with one precinct
missing. is as follows: Quincy (Dem),
S9,7O7; Curtis CRep), 1874: Riley Dry
an Dem), 2,SS5; Goldstein (Soeialist),
776.

CLEVELAND, Dec. 21.-Proceedings
will soon be instituted by H. NJ. Strauss
& Co. and other produce dealers of
Cleveland against the Cleveland Car
Service association. The action will be
instituted before the interstate com
merce commission, and the charge is
that the produce men and other con-
signees in Cleveland have been discrim-
mated against in favor of the Standard
Oil company and the Cleveland Rolling
Mill company.
For eight years, it is charged, small
consignees have been charged 81 per day
for every day or fraction thereof that
cars are left standing unloaded on the
side tracks. whereas the two big COM
panies named have been allowed to use
the cars for storage purposes gratis.
The principal witness is A. R. Sim
mons, who was until recently the man.
ager of the Car Service association and
who claims that he was discharged be-,
cause he tried to enforce the rules of
the association on all alike. The attor-
neys for the produce men declare that
they will push the case to the end.
