Rising Was Unexpected.

London, Sept. 7.-Advices from Canea
were received this morning from a cor
respondent there, who also telegraph
ed that he feared for the safety of his
colleague in Gambia, as he was unable
to communicate with him.
1t has been known that the Mussul-
mans were discontented at the joint
rule of the powers in Crete. This was
largely due to the fact that they were
confined in the towns, while the CHS
tians were allowed the liberty of the
island. But the rising of the Mussul-
mans was unexpected.
The Cretan fleet is under the COM
mand of the French admiral, Potter,
as the senior officer, and consists Of
British, French, Russian, Italian and
Austrian ships, Germany having recent
" withdrawn from participation in the
Joint control or government of Crete.
The troops of the powers are divided
among the different towns, the British
garrisoning Gambia.
The Mussulmans complain that they
recently consented that the Christians
should be permitted to enter the towns,
on condition that the Mussulmans were
allowed the freedom of the country, and
they further declare that the represen-
tatives of the powers have not fulfill
ed the latter part of their obligations,
and while they were confined to the
towns. the Christians piIaged their
property in the country

In his address before the Philadel-
phia Trades League" Secretary Gage
declared himself champion Of BIZ

So Secretary Gage, being one OF the
presidents official family" heartily
approves OF the effort to secure interna-
tioBsI bimetallism. Yet he has curious
way Of manifesting his approval and
support
When the Eifty-1Itth congress met IN
regular session-the WOleOtt commits

submitted a plan Of currency reOrgani-
zation which was purely and simply a
plan to put all currency on the single
gold basis, 10 retire the greenbacks and
to give 10 the national banks the priv.
Iege Of issuing all nonmetallic money.

the tin plate which AR. Gage says is now
being made so largely in his country
might have been employed instead OF
silver for the diseredited dollar.

The maquerading Of goldbug con-
ferences and manipulating bankers, in
all their learned chatter about sound
currency, scientific banking, national
honor, money good in every part Of the
world. and the like, leaves out of con-
sideratiOn the great mass Of the Amer
lean people. The maskers want the gov
eminent to issue gold bonds, upon
which gold interest must be paid semi
annually to buy up and retire Sherman
notes, greenbacks, silver certificates
and silver dollars, without even at
tempting to prove that the bank money
they propose to issue in the place Of
the government money to be retired
would be better money than the money
which is now issued directly by the
United States. The government pays
no interest on the money which these
manipulators propose TO retire, but
would be compelled to pay very large

The einematograph has settled an
important international question be-
tween France and Russia that might
otherwise have added to the prevailing
political uncertainty in Europe It
seems that Prince Bismarck, in an in
terview with a German newspaper man,
recently observed that President Faure,
during his visit to Russia few months
eco, had behaved with perfect pro
priety except upon one occasion This
was when. at his arrival in st. Peters
burg, he reviewed the COssack troops
which acted as his guard Of honor He
was said TO have returned their salute
By simply touching his hat, instead OF
taking of his hat, as the protocol pre-
scrfbes. Bismarck's criticism was
brought to the French presidents at
tention, who cudgeled his brain to re-
member what form Of salute he gave On
that momentous occasion. but in vain
Neither could any Of his comrades re-
call. But the other day the einemato-
graph. which seems to have kept IN I'M
yvearied eve on President Faure's move
ments in St. Petersburg, was interro-
gated upon the point, and was able to
return a satisfactory answer It dis
closed a reproduction Of the scene Of
the presidents arrival at Petersburg,
showing him walking slowly in front OF
the ranks of his guard OF honor, tax
ing of his hat with large and sweep

Prince Bismarck had been deceived;
the protocol was safe; President Faure
