ANOTHER DELUsIoN ANSWERED.

Secretary of the Treasury Gage makes the
tatement that the free coinage of silver would
not increase the volume of money in crcula-
tion, because more money is coined under
present regulations than would be under free
coinage law. If Secretary Cages statement is
accepted by the advocates Of a single gold
standard, how will they explain the way that
free coinage will initiate the currency and "cut
the dollar in two in the middle" The infla-
ton Of the currency has been the great bug-a-
boo used to frighten the voter, We have been
told times without number that the government
has coined more silver dollars ten times over in
the last twenty years than it did in eighty
year prior to 1873 and to again open the
mints to silver would be disastrous and food
the country with worthless silver dollars
Again they have told us that the owners of the
silver mines would reap great harvest by
giving silver the benefit of free mintage and
permit them to sell their fifty cent dollars for
one hundred cents. But since the statement
made by Secretary Gage what will become of
the great flood of silver that was bound TO
inundate us, and what benefit would accrue to
the silver mine owners. when the demand for
coinage purposes would be decreased by the
admission of silver to free coinage2 Either
the gold bugs will have to rearnnge their
arguments or call down Secretary Gage for his
disarrangement Of their pet theories based on
their gifted imaginations. Which or BOTH

General Warner had good meeting
in the Tabernacle last evening. The
spacious building was we'll filled and his
speech was of the best meat from be-
gining to end, for the general is acknowl-
edged to be one of the best posted men
living on economic questions. His
library on these topics is one Of the most
extensive in the country, and he has
studied the works. Having served in
congress too severa terms, he has had
large experience in the discussion of the
financial question in all its phases. His
speech last evening occupied over an
hour and half and the large audience
gave him close attention. There were
quite a number OF ladies present and we
doubt not they were also edited by the
full and able presentation of the question.
General Warner devoted his closing
remarks to an expose of the scheme to
retire the greenbacks etc., and increase

JUMPED FROM A WINDOW.
Ex-Secretary Herbert's Daughter Com
OlitS Suicide.

Ex-Secretary Herberts Daughter Com
mits Suicide.
Washington. Dec 23.-Miss Leila
Herbert, daughter of the ex-secretary
of the navy, died at her home in this
city this morning, as the result of a
fall from the third story of her home
on New Hampshire avenue. in the most
fashionable part of the city.
The sudden death and the tragic
features surrounding it were great
shock to the large circle OF friends she
had made in Washington.
Her death was traceable indirectly
to an accident while horseback riding
in her native state, Alabama, about
two months ago. This morning she
was unusually bright and cheerful
Shortly before 10 O'Clock she dressed
to go down stairs, but instead of de-
scending went to rear room of the
third story, from which she fell. sus-
tanning injuries which caused her
death.
The death was reported to police
headquarters as case of suicide, due
to melancholy and temporary aberra-
ton of mind as the result of long
illness.
Miss Herbert was the eldest of ex-
Secretary Herbert's three children,
and was a charming figure in Wash
ington society. Socially she was ex-
ceedingly popular. and her presence
was sought at all gatherings. Her So
cial triumphs here were repeated in
Europe, where she went to attend the
great naval demonstration at KEEL.
Within the past year she has not en-
ioyed robust health, but this only in
duced her to redouble her devotion to
out-of-door sports and exercises, and it
was while regaining her health by out
door riuing that she met with the ac-
cident that indirectly resulted In her
death.
The coroner returned a verdict OF
suicide through temporary insanity.
AS the facts were clear, he decided that
an inquest was unnecessary.

GRADE CROSSING ACCIDENT
Twenty Persons Injured on the Lacka-
wanna Railroad.

Twenty Persons Injured the Lacka
wanna Railroad.
New York, Dec. 24.-Twenty persons
were injured, three perhaps fatally, at
grade crossing on the Delaware, Lack
awanna q Western railroad, between
Passiac and Delaware, N. j., tonight.
They were in a stage which was struck
by train. That any of them escaped
is regarded as miracle.
All the victims are employed in the
Wothern & Aldrich mill, at Delawana,
two miles from Passiac. They ride to
and from their work in big covered
stage. There were 36 persons crowded
into the stage tonight. The party re-
leved the monotony of the trip by
singing, and it was not until the horses
were on the track that the engine was
seen by the driver. The driver st Il tx
his horses sharply with the whip, and
they leaped forward, and then stopped
abruptly as the gate closed on the other
side of the track. The locomotive
struck the stage almost in the middle,
hurting it several feet ahead, then
struck it again, throwing it from the
track. The occupants of the stage were
scattered in all directions.

MAY DIG UP THE HATCHET.
Indian Territory Braves Ready to Go
on the Warpath.

on the Warpath.
Chicago, Dec. IA special to the
Times Herald from Washington says:
Trouble in the Indian territory is ex-
pected by the commissioner of Indian
affairs and by others who are familiar
with the condition of affairs there. On
January ! the tribal courts will be
abolished by an act passed at the last
session of congress, and the United
States courts given full jurisdiction
over the territory. In many quarters
the officers of the Indian courts have
declared that they will forcibly resist all
efforts to prevent them from doing
business. The United States marshals
have given notice that any tribal courts
attempting to sit, and those assuming
TO conduct them will be arrested.
A delegation of eight Cherokees,
seven of them full-bloods, is now in
the city. A few days ago they pre-
sented memorial to congress asking
that the law be rescinded, but congress
has now adjourned without action, and
when it again convenes the Indian
courts will be out of existence.
Meanwhile the subcommittee of the
senate committee on Indian affairs,
appointed to consider the problem pre-
sented in the territory, practically de-
cided to recommend an amendment to
the law applying to the apportionment
of all lands held by the five civilized
tribes among the members of these
tribes, and also an amendment pro-
viding that all valid leases shall be
recognized by the government of the
United States and the money paid on
account of them covered into the treas
ury of the United States for the benefit
of the various tribes.
The Dawes commission has reported
its failure to come to any conclusion
with the Indians. Such agreements
as have been concluded vary so in their
provisions, that, in view of the fact
that eventually a uniform system Of
government must be provided for In
dian territory, it is questionable
whether any of the agreements should
be definitely ratified BY congress until
the desired and necessary uniformity
can be reached.
Secretary Bliss thinks no government
will be satisfactory until congress shall
provide for single uniform system Of
laws for the Indian territory that shall
place all its inhabitants in possession
of the rights of American citizenship.

OUR ONLY INTEREST.
Government Sounded on It's Attitude
Toward China

sounded Its Attituda
Toward China.
Washington, Ce'.24 1t is understood
the authorities here have been unoffi-
cially sounded as to the attitude of the
United States toward the complications
IN the Far East, with the view of learn
ing whether American interests in
China were regarded as sufficient to
warrant any active step by this govern
ment.
From what source the inquiries have
come is not disclosed. If from Great
Britain, they must have come through
Colonel Hay, the American ambassador,
as the British officials here have re-
ceived no instructions AS to the Chinese
Situation.
1t is we'll understood, however. that
Great Britain would look with favor on
any active step by the United States
which would serve as check for the
advances of Germany and Russia. The
British interests in China are ten times
greater than those of Germany, Russia
and the United States, and yet, with
Germany and Russia firmly located on
Chinese soil, Great Britain is left in
sort of cul de sac. 1t is known also
that the Chinese authorities would well
come movement by the United STATES,
and that this has been communicated
to officials here.
Although these soundings, for they
amount to nothing more as yet, have
not taken official form. thew have been
sufficient to gain pretty general un
derstanding as to the attitude Of this
government. This, in brief, is that
the United States has no interest in
territorial extension now going on in
China; that she will not land at any of
the coast ports of China, as Germany
and Russia have done. and that her
only consideration is to guard 6 alb
lished American interests in China.

EDlcT OF THE TRADES UNION
Members Are Asked Not to Serve in the
National Guard.

AOAuO0 AI0 A0AeO NOT Co servo In tho
National Guard.
Chicago, Dec. 22.-The Times Herald
says: Trades unionists are required
by the Chicago Federation of Labor to
leave the National Guard at once.
This was the unanimous decision
reached by the delegates at their week
ly meeting. 1t was said without con-
tradiction that union man could not
consistently serve in the militia and
incur the risk of being called out to
shoot down fellow trades unionists who
were on strike for the betterment of
their condition. So, every trades
unionist who is now member of the
National Guard will be required to Sc
cure discharge from military service
at once.
Delegate P. ]. Hassett started it all
with motion to compel trades union
lists to leave the National Guard. An
amendment by McPhee was offered to
have every workman enlist and learn
how to handle gun. This was lost,
and a less warlike substitute was
offered by Delegate B. P. Williams,
''that request be made to all union
men now in the militia to get out of
the service" A second motion was
offered by Delegate Williams and
passed, urging all union men who are
not members of the militia to refrain
from enlisting. General Miles sug-
gestion of guns for the postoffice was
denounced as shadow of coming
events. The tocsin was sounded that
capital was organizing and that labor
should be prepared. The delegates
later declared their opposition to the
creation of the proposed new cabinet
position of secretary of commerce and
industry. The adverse report of the
committee to which the subject had
been referred was sustained.
A motion was passed favoring the
creation of cabinet department of la
Dor.
Reports from Nashville indicating
the triumph of a movement for an
eight-hour working day evoked much
enthusiasm.
