ocracy, sometimes called the O'Brien
Democracy, has decided that its place
is With Henry George.
More influential, because more nu-
merous, is the Manhattan Democracy,
which has elected to support Seth Low.
The potency of the 10000 votes which
the Steclfler brothers claim to have or
ganized and controlled was recognized
under the Gilroy-Tammany regime by
the appointment o? one OF the Stecklers
TO city judgeshjp. a point upon which
the Stecklerites-largely drawn from
the German element in New Yorb-ffnd
themselves at one with the Citizens
Union, is the sun1ptuary legislation, for
IN his letter of acceptance. which has
stood as the platform of the Citizens
Union in this campaign, Mr.. Low said
OF the existing excise statute: Where
the Raines law fails to apply to New
York it fails because it does not take
into account the punishment of the
city. New York, while Characteristic
ally an American city, is also. as the
Germans say, 4 world city. Men of
every SORT of un-bringfng must be able
10 live in such city happily and with
due regard 10 the rights and convic-
lions of others"
Under the circumstances it has come
to be expected that Tammany viii suf-
fer by the decision of the Steekler
councils to stand by Low. To what
extent the action OF the United Dem
ocracy viii affect the result is subject
to much wider conjecture. It's mem
bership and the loyalty TO It's leaders Of
that membership are comparatively IN
known quantities. The organization has
taken sides with the free silver element
in the party and it was foremost in the
demand that Henry George declare
himself uneQuivocally in sympathy
with the platform adopted at Chicago
last year

London, Oct. 21.-Colonel John s.
Hay, the United States minister, and
the officials of the foreign office de-
cline to furnish the press with the text
of Great Britain's reply to the sug-
gestions of the United States monetary
commissioners. though the foreign Of
flee people say it is in substance ideuti-
cal with the Associated Press dis
patches Of Saturday last. giving the
result Of the meeting of the British
cabinet, and that the communication
sent yesterday 10 the commissioners
through the United States ambas-
sadOr was practically a reiteration of
the statements made. a similar reply
has been sent to the French embassy.
The United States commissioners
realize that their mission has been I'M
successful. though they will not adj
nit, as the answer of Great Britain
says, that the country Will be glad 70
receive other propositions, and the
commissioners have decided as a mat
ter OF form to return to france and
consult the French government as to
whether fresh proposals are desirable.
But it is not expected that anything

note TO the United States ambassador

that by far the most important pro-
pOsal submitted is that concerning the
reopeulnS Of tAe Indian minis. He
ADDS: 1.-THE government of India points
out that they can hardly be expected
to give up a policy which, for four
years they have been endeaVoring to
make effective, in the absence of sub
stantidI security that the system to
be substituted for it is practically Ger
tain to be stable II, owing TO the re.a-
tive sInallness Of The area over which
the bfmetalliC system is TO be estab-
lished, to the great divergence between
the proposed ratio ard the present
sold DYtee q silver. or to any cher
cause, the legal ratio of silver we're
not maintained, the position Of silver
might be much worse than before and
the financial advertisements Of she
government of India greater Lhan any
with which they have as yet had to
contend
The reply then adds that even if these
reasons are not strong enough the In
dian government could not be expected
TO reverse policy which has only been
on trial for four years, and concludes:
Her majesty $ government is therefore
deSlrouS to ascertain how far the views
or the French and American govern
ments have been modified by the deci-
sion arrived at and whether they de-
sire to proceed further with the nego-
tiattOns at the present moment It is
possible that the tine which has lapsed
since the proposals were put forward
IN July last may enable the represents
atives Of the two governments con-
cerned TO form 9 more accurate esti-
mate than then practicable of the
amount Of assistance they say they
expect from other powers and of the
success their scheme IS likely 10 attain.
The government VIII then be placed in
position to consider the scheme with
fuller knowledge than they now pos
sess of many of the circumstances ma

London. oct. 22.-The morning papers
appear without the reply Of the govern
ment to the proposals Of the American
bimetallic special commission. They
contain only summary of the reply
cabled from Washington.

have been ended with no memorial

1t appears that the government while
polite to the silver delegates, have in
no way committed themselves.
The Daily News makes a similar pro-
test against the governments discour-
tesy and then applauds the cabinet for
"dashing the hopes of the bimetaIlists

WAS A C0LD-8L0OlED MURDER
KILLING OF CHRIS HAAS AT
NEW FORK, WYOMING.
Pierce Was Jealous of the German
and Shot Him Full of Holes With
out Provocation.
tsneclal 10 The neraldD

Lander, Wyo., Oct. 21.-In the coro-
ner's investigation of the killing in the
New Fork country that occurred Oct.
I. in which Thomas G. Pierce shot and
instantly killed Chris Haas, and then
rode to Lander and gave himself up,
and claimed that he had to kill Haas
to save his own life, it developed that
Pierce had planned to kill Haas, and
did it in a most cruel and cold-blooded
manner.
Coroner J. W. H. Schoo returned from
the scene OF the tragedy today, after a
searching examination, and gave out
the following evidence, which was OBJ
tanned by the coroner's jury:
Pierce and Haas met at the ranch Of
James Westfal, near New Fork post
Office, ate supper together and then
walked out through the back door of
the house towards the stable. where
Pierce's horse was tied to the hitching
rack. While walking down the path
together, they were conversiNg -sn low
tones that could not be heard by Mr..
Westfan. who vas not more than 20
steps from them, when Pierce ex-
claimed:
THAT is what 1 want you to do" and
drew his SiX-Shooter and placed 1t
against Haas sue anu ATeu- hdAS AeAA
but Pierce continued firing until he
emptied his gun, inficting three
wounds, any one of which would have
proved fatal. He then jumped on his
horse ard came to Lander.
Haas was quiet, hard working Ger
man, who was trying to get along in an
honest way. He was engaged to one of
Mr. WestfalVs daughters, and they
were to he married in a short time. It
appeared from the evidence that Pierce
was jealous of Haas and took this
means of disoosing of him.
Pierce is known everywhere as Tex"
and is the owner of an elk ranch in the
New Fork country, ana made his living
for the past six years catching elk
calves ard raising them for <S5tern
parties. lie is known as bad man.
and al Of his neighbors are afraid of
him. fearing to give their testimony ut
the inquest. He will be arraigned for
preliminary hearing tomorrow.
