The merchants oS Ssa,!ago, who know
what a sAvsr dollar is when they see u,
have r1ueed to take American silver
dollars at other than Their metal

inE as that OF Mexican dollars, And one
may well say. Why nOi' Those Dsr-
chants know tha; in the worlds markets
gold and silver pass on their merits and
by weight They know that sold piece
contains 80 many grains Of go,d HecOrding
to the onicial stamp upon it, and that
silver piece contains so many sratns Of
silver. They know that II 3 grains OF
standard gold are worth 100 cents tha,
n2s grains ID standard silver connot De
worth half as much. and they do business
upon that principle. Now, does anybody
believe that even Colonel Bryan with his
silver tongue could convince those santi-
ago merchants that a silver dollar is just
as valuable to them as gold dollar or
that they can buy as much for It? What
would they say to him Il he undertook
such a plea? wouldn't they think he was
trying confidence game on them? And
yet there are thousands and thousands OF
gaping Americans who have stood by the
hour listening to Colonel Bryan and have
gone away convinced that he was telling
them the truth when he said that sixteen
ounces Of silver were worth one ounce Of
gold. When he gets to Santiago Colonel
Bryan will find that the merchants there
viii not sell him supplies on that basis.

The following is received by this

information on the coffee fungus

possible.

CoHee Disease.

y. >. Dept. OF Agriculture,
Division of Vegetable Ply
siology and Pathology,
Washington, d. c., Nov. 2S, '99.
Mr.. Byron o. Clark, Secretary
and Commissioner, Bureau of
Agriculture and Forestry, De-
partment of the Interior, Homo
lulu, Hawaii.
Dear Sir: Mr.. +. V. Coville,
Botanist of this Department, has
referred to us your letter Of Nov
ember l, and three specimens Of
diseased coffee berries. We have
kept the specimens several days
in the hope of obtaining some
definite facts bearing on the nature
of the trouble, and the possibility
of injecting growing coffee berries
from the material forwarded.
We find associated with the
specimens fungus, which is
doubtless one of the chief factors
in causing the disease. The fun
gus is a Fusarium, and so far as
can be determined has not been
reported as occurring on coffee.
The spores, or reproductive bodies
of the fungus, are quite abundant
on the surface of the berries, and
the mycelium, or vegetative por-
ton, penetrates the tissues in all
directions.
Similar fungi occur in this
country on various plants and
sometimes occasion considerable
injury under certain conditions of
moisture and heat. We see no
reason for alarm in this particular
case, however, and believe that
with proper precautions the dis
ease may be held in check. Doubt
less surrounding conditions, such
as soil, rainfall, etc., have much to
do with the prevalence of the dis.
ease, and probably in localities
where the rainfall is not 50 great
the fungus would not occur in suf-
fcient quantity to be noticed.
In the matter of preventive
measure we can only suggest the
careful gathering and destroying
of as much of the diseased mate
rial as possible, together with the
best cultivation under existing
conditions. By keeping the plants
in good, strong growing condi
ton, much can be done toward
holding the fungus in check. We
have had no experience in the use
Of fungicides on coffee, but from
the beneficial results in the case of
other plants it is probable that
good would follow the application
of Bordeaux mixture. L suggest
that the mixture be prepared in
accordance with the directions
given in our Farmers Bulletin
No. 3S, a half dozen copies of
which are forwarded to you today
under another cover, and that it
is applied as thoroughly as possi-
BILE to both the leaves and berries.
The first application should be
made if possible in advance of the
fungus aud further treatments
every ten days or two weeks, about
as suggested for the diseases of
the grape in the Bulletin sent. OF
course in such a case as this expe-
riments will have to be made in a
limited way at first aud then if the
work is found beneficial it can be
extended.
l also forward you several copies
OF circular on a Central Amer
lean Coffee Disease and trust they
may be of interest to you. We
shall be glad to furnish any fur.
ther information in our power and
shall be pleased to hear from you
as to any experiments in the way
of treatment that may be made.
Yours very truly,

unanimously elected.
Ten delegates from Baltimore and Sena-

take any part in the caucus or to consider
themselves BOUND by it, and up to the
hour at noon to-day when the balloting
was resumed, no one not in their counsels
knew how they meant TO vote, but il was
generally thought they would stick to
Shaw to the end, thereby creating a dead
lock.
IL was therefore with the utmost inter
est that the baIloting was watched, and
when the name of Senator Westcott was
reached and he. after a brief speech.
changed his vote from Shaw TO McComas,
every one knew the end was near, and the
cheering was tremendous.

MILLS HAVE MADE MONEY.
Dividends Declared Where Wages
Have Been Cut.

Boston, Jan. 25.-With increasing discon-

Fall River, with increasing priyations
among the strikers and the increase for
calls for city aid al New Bedford, and
the announcement of a 8 per cent. semi
annual dividend in the Pepperell mills and
per cent. annual dividend at Laconia
mills both at Biddeford, where there are
strikers the prospects are far from good
for settlement of the labor troubles in
New England this week
The new turn in affairs to-day was not
in Massachusetts. 1t was in Rhode ISL
and, at the Centerville cotton mill, where
a new strike was reported by 1875 weavers
quitting work on the claim that their cut
averaged 16 per cent 1t was also an
nounced that a bill would be introduced in
the general assembly to investigate tex
tile conditions in that state.
In Maine all was quiet.
In New Bedford an unsupported rumor
was current that one mill will break rs
agreement and restore the old wage sched-
ule. The attempt Of citizens at large 10
end the strike by asking the mill manage
ment to take down their notices and cur
tail production has been rebutted by a pos
tive refusal.
In other mill centers there is not
change.
