GIFT OF MILLIONS.
valuable Franchise Voted Away at
PhiIad lphia.

PHILADELPHIA, Nov. 9.-Amid
cheers, cat calls and Kisses, which the
police vainly endeavored to prevent,
the common council Of the city of Phil
adelphia voted away the most Yalu-
able property now owned by the city
namely, the gas works worth at least
1000 900. The members who opposed
the deal spoke bitterly against the pro-
posed legislation. The members favor
ing what is called the grab SAID
nothing. Finally their leader, Mr.. Van
Osten, arose and moved the previous
question. At that time the galleries
were filed with citizens. The ques-
ton being ordered; the roll was called
and the vote stood rs to 81 to give
away for thirty years this immense
property. A scene of great CONFUSION
followed. Shame some one In the
gallery shouted. and there came In
moment such storm OF misses as mas
never been heard in the council cnam-
Der of Philadelphia before. In vain
President Hartman pounded his gavel
on the desk in an attempt to secure
order. He finally called upon the po-
lice and a dozen or more ot1cers ran
into the galleries, but no sooner was
one man elected than others took up
the cry. 1t was over half an hour be-
fore the galleries could be cleared.
Early in the session communica-
tion was read from what is known as
the Baker syndicate, which has bid Tor
the gas works. This syndicate, COM
posed of reputable and responsible
men, formally offered to take the lease
of the works on the same terms as the
proposed ordinance gives them to the
United Gas Improvement company, and
in addition to pay down Immediately
$1,000,000 in cash and 100000 annually
for thirty years, thus giving the city
$10,000000 for the lease. The United
Gas Improvement company, which was
voted the control, proposed to pay the
city nothing, but instead insists that
it shall charge the private consumer
81 per thousand feet for gas for the
next thirty years.
The only thing to prevent the deal
going through is the mayors veto.
Before election he promised to prevent
any such measure going through.
Late this afternoon bill in equity
was filed in the common pleas by Joel
J. Bailey and other citizens against
the city, the mayor and other heads Of
departments to restrain the proposed
lease of the gas works. A copy of the
bill was served on Mayo. Warwick. 1t
asks for an injunction and an order
declaring the lease illegal on the
ground that the city charter prohibits
the operation Of the works by any
other parties than the city.

NEW YORK, Nov. 8-The semi-an-
nuaI meeting of the executive commit
tee of the National Sound Money
league was begun here today. There

H. SchWan, J. Kennedy Tod, H. P.
Robinson, Edwin Burrit Smith, J. K.
Cowan, M. E. ingalls,, ]. H. Norwood,

Treasurer Hepburn reported that the
total amount in bank up to the present
to the credit Of the league was $10,363
A donation of $500 to the Indianapolis
Monetary league was granted without
dissent.
Genreal Secretary Smalley read a
communication received from M. G.
George, vice president for Oregon, who
wrote that he was with the league in
all the great questions relating to the
currency and realizes the necessity for
aggressive work. AS to the state, in
many places the league would find it
honeycombed with financial ignorance
and error. On motion Of Mr.. ingalls, it
was voted to appropriate $1,000 to aid
Mr.. George in Oregon.

the league for Nebraska, wrote: "Mr

of upholding the free coinage Of silver

full to observe that this aggregation
may quite possibly make a majority
of 10000 at the coming election for con-
didates who represent all that is mimi
cal and disastrous to agriculture and,
in fact, to sound government every

Judge w. NJ. Rese, vice president Of
the league for Arkansas, wrote: '"There
is no change in this state. There is
an overwhelming majority for free sill

James L. Blair, of st. Louis, wrote:
"On the whole l cannot say that I
feel encouraged over the situation in
Missouri. 1 fully recognize that the
strength of the silver Democracy in
this state is wholly due to lack of edu-
cation on that subject, and I see no
means at hand whereby they can be
sufficiently Informed before the next
election to materially reduce their
numbers"
William c. Cornwell, of Buffalo, re-
ported that as far as he could ascer-
tain both in the eastern and western
part of the state, the free silver senti-
ment was actually dying out.

Kathrein is a prominent member of the Cath

to taking extreme measures against the OBJ

gressive section OF his own nationality. He
sumed the post of president of the unterhaus
that, being himself German, he would
never sanction measures calculated to preju-

INSANE ASYLUM FIRE.
No Lives Lost, Thanks to Excellent
Discipline.

MILLEDGEVILLE, Ca, Nov. 9-The negro
section of the Georgia insane asylum burned
today. There were within the walls at the
time the fire broke out, inmates and all, over
200 persons, but the efficiency Of administra-
ton was such that no lives were lost. The
group Of buildings constituting the section
covered about four acres. The fire started in
the attic, above one Of the wards, on the
east side, and was discovered by DR.. Detail,
who was attending one of the patients. The
fire walls of the building did not extend to
the roof, and. as a consequence, the fire
travelled under the roof and dropped the sparks
below. The tiers being divided by solid brick
walls, the progress of the fire was slow but
very steady about ten hours elapsing before
it was checked. Portions of the section were
saved, but the major part was gutted. The
asylum water service was excellent, and
reinforced by engines from the fire department
Of Macon, thirty miles away, which were
brought here upon special train. DR.. Pow
ell, superintendent of the asylum, estimates
the loss at about 500, 600, including buildings
and furniture. upon which there is insurance
Of about so per cent. There was room enough
in the other buildings to temporarily care for
those who were dislodged by the fire.

SPAIN SEEKS PEACE.
Senor Sagasta Expresses the
View of the rlinistry.

MADRID, Nov. 9.-In response to
cable message from a non official
American source, Senor Sagasta, the
premier, has sent the following cabled
declaration through Senior Dupuy de
Lone, the Spanish minister at Wash
ington: $50 far from seeking a pre-
text to declare war against the United
States, Spain would regard it as a
great misfortune to be given the oc-
casion for such an unhappy resolution.
Animated as she is by the most ami
cable sentiments toward the great re-
public, Spain hopes of America that
the latter will do it's utmost to fortify
sentiments of friendship for the sake
and welfare of both countries, while at
the same time respecting the rights of
Spain"
WASHINGTON, D. c., Nov. 9.-The
full text of Spain's reply to the Wood
ford note was read at the cabinet meet
ing today. Its tone was pacific and In
stead of being at all warlike was re-
garded by the cabinet as very salts
factory and as calculated to allay any
fear of a hostile outbreak.

The papal nuncio at Madrid has been

port the present dynasty. News has

in Spain is extremely grave. Carlist
risings are imminent In the principal
towns of Spain and the queen regent
is continually receiving menacing let
ters from the Carlists. 1 understand

GREENvILLE POLICE WAKE UP.
Citizens Appeal TO the Mayor for Pro-
tectfOn Against Corner Loafers.

In his mail this morning Mayor Hoos
found a letter from G. w. Heincken of
the New Jersey Manufacturing Company,
Gator avenue. G~reenville, who in effect
says that the Greenvile policemen are
powerless to break up the gangs of young
rowdies who hang about the corners of
Rose and Gator venues, and he asks the
Mayor to draw the Police Commission
ers' attention to the fact.
II have been compelled" the writer of
the letter says, ITO make SO many com
plants about this gang, all of whom are
known to the police up here, that I am
almost convinced the Greenville police are
not able to rid the corners of these hood
lums. The language they use is simply
disgusting, and their actions are immoral
and depraved to the loves degree. My
family1annot go into the garden with
out hearing and seeing shocking things.
Will your Honor, therefore, look into this
matter and give. not only myself but all
the neighbors here, some relief?,
The Mayor will send his letter to the
Police Commissioners, and Chief Murphy
and the Greenyille police force may hear
something which they will scarcely con-
slider in the high of a compliment.
