DEMOCRATS DISAGREE
Silver Men Will Fight to Control the Party
Machinery.
A Bitter Contest Imminent Over the
Chafrmanship of the Democratic
CONGREGATIONAL Committee.

While the democrats have been appar-
emily enjoying the republican family quar-
rels in Ohio and Maryland they have not
been entirely free from tribulations of
their own, and from present conditions the
disciples of Jefferson who are respectively
ranged under the standards of gold and
silver are going to have hot time over the
question of which faction will control the
machinery for the congressional elections
this year and the national election in 1900
The formation of the congressional demo-
cratic committee is usually determined by
caucuses of the senators and representa-
tives of that faith. but it happens that the
democratic steering committee. of the
senate took the selection of the senatorial
members of the committee in hand this
year and chose, it is claimed by silver
democrats. such men are believed to be
able TO make Senator Charles ]. Faulkner,
an alleged gold man. chairman of the con-
greSsional committee
1t is rumored that the silver men wanted
Senator Money of Mississippi put on the
committee In order to have him for chair
man. but the steering committee did not
include Moneys name in their list, on the
ground, 1t is said, that he was too young a
senator The assertion is made that Rich
ard Croker, Calvin s. Brice and William &.
Whitney have determined to take charge
OF the formation of issues for the approach
ing campaigns and to keep silver decidedly
in the background and in proof of this it
is declared that the new democratic club
recently organized by Croker in New York
elected Senators Jones of Arkansas. Cor
man, Faulkner, Smith of New Jersey and
Murphy of New York to membership, but
that William Jennings Bryan was refused
similar honors, though denial of such ac-
ton in respect to Mr.. Bryan has been made.
Ex-senator Hills announcement yesterday
that he will give his unqualified support
to the cause of free silver has pleased the
silver men because they regard him as the
only man in New York who stands a
chance of wrestling the control of the
party there from Croker.
The silver republicans, populists and
others who affiliate with the silver demo-
Gratis are open in their declarations that if
Senator Faulkner or any other gold man
is selected as chairman of the congress
sional committee they will refuse their CO.
operation and assistance in the next cam
pagn. 1t is said also that while no charge
Of personal disloyalty can be placed
against Senator J. K. Jones the silver
democrats are so incensed at his conces-
sions to the gold men that they will make
a bitter fight to depose him from the
craftsmanship Of the national democratic
committee.

Of yesterdays war rumors had q beneficial
influence on values this morning. A fair

firmly to its upward course
Toward the latter half of the first hour
the disposition to take profits became pro-
nounced, prices yielding steadily under
this influence. In some of the more active
issues the manipuative program for the

OF the natural tendency of the market.

level selling became liberal in volume. and
all effort to sustain the price ceased. Dur

New York Central was in good demand

disadvantages of realizing sales. All
things considered, the stock held it's ad-

The final hours trading reflected some
degree of heaviness on the surface Sugar

change in sentiment, but there is undoubt-

the market. AS seemed probable several

MIR. HiNNA'S SEAT.
There May De Bitter Opposition I'm

There is a strong probability that Sena-
tor Hanna's right to his seat in the Senate
will be called into question, and the fight
which was bitterly conducted at Column
bus may be transferred to Washington
The investigation being conducted by the
Ohio state senate. which is in the hands OF
the anti-Ilanna people. undoubtedly has
for its object the making out of a case
which Will enable Mr.. Hanna's seat to be
contested at Washington. on the grounds
that his election brought about by
bribery and fraud. If a case can be con-
structed which would stand a chance of
being sustained before the United States
Senate. the democrats, silver republicans
and populiStS in the Senate will be ready
to take it up and press it in the Senate
There is no doubt that they are waiting
fer and wishing fer such an opportunity.
The contest, however is one of a char
acter which cannot be lightly entered into
and it will not be taken up unless the Ohio
inveS tigating committee satisfy senator's

by proof.
1t Will not be sufficient to show that SOM,

Mr.. Hanna or even that a bride actually

title to his scat il would have to be shown
beyond doubt that not only a bride was

Germany as II Producer of Steel.

N. G.. Mulhall In North American Review
Germany holds third place among the ma
tons of the world as a producer of steel,
the output having risen from $4,000
to 2j00,OOO tons. The annual output
of iron and steel goods is of the ap-
proximate value of s43O, 900, 900, Of which
nearly one-ffth is exported. The value OF
all hardware manufactures is about $685.
CoOOOO, home consumption standing for
s4iO,OOOOUO. equal to $S.25 per inhabitant,
against 81 in France, s12 in Great Britain
and SIG in the United States. The weight
of metal consumed annually averages 2O5
pounds per inhabitant in Germany, as COM
pared with $50 pounds in Great Britain and
$40 POUNDS in the United States. There are
80 frst-class machine factories in Ger
many, of which Prussia has 800, turning
out everything requisite for railways, ag-
riculture. mining, &c. krupp's covers
1000 acres, employing 80 steam engines
and 10000 Workmen. and consuming OOO,-
600 tons of steel yearly.
The rapidity with which the manufacture
OF hardware has grown in Germany may
be judged from the fact that 1t compared
with that of France in 1875 as four to
three, and in 1895 five to two. Its pres
ent position as compared with that of
Great Britain is AS three to four.

Killed n Deer With a Marble,

From the Kansas City Journal
There is a boy in fancy county who has
record which perhaps few, If any, old
hunters can match. He killed deer with
a marble. True, the marble was shot from
a gun, but still the occurrence may be
ranked among the most unusual of hunting
events. The lad was out in the woods shoot
ing, and had exhausted his supply of shot.
He had put into his muzzle-loader, SINGLE
barrel gun of the old pattern a charge of
powder. when he discovered that his shot
pouch was empty. The boy had in his
pocket marble which he used as a .'taw"
in playing the common game. The marble
exactly fitted the muzzle of his gun, and
hardly thinking what might result from
such an experiment, the young hunter
dropped the ''taw" down on the wadding
covering the powder. Strang things hap
pen down in the Bull Creek hills, and on
his way home the boy came upon deer
which at close raEge stopped and chal-
lenged his aim. The adventurous scion Of
good hunting stock leveled his gun, pulled
the trigger and brought down the game
the marble boring hole into the vitals Of
the deer.

today. Judge Bradford rendered decision
on the objection of the defense to hearsay
testimony offered by the witness Nichols
yesterday. to expressions made by Capt.
Murphy during the alleged Cuban expedi-
ton of the Laurada.
Judge Bradford decided that the testi-
mcny admissible, not as to the fact
that the Laurada was engaged in Cuban
expedition, but merely to show the intent
of those responsible for the movements of
the vessel. He said that he would instruct
the jury not to accept this testimony as
proof of guilt of the prisoner, but that it
was incumbent upon the government to
prove the active connection of the defend
ant with the affair.
