Their Plain Duty,
From the RaItimore News

FTOm Ihe Baltimore News
The old-Iine democrats who had the cour-
age to break away from the traditions of a
lifetime and vote for the sound money can
didates for President and Congress two
years ago have nothing to prevent them
from standing by their work and votir z for
sound money congressman next month.
They have only to look the situation
squarely in the face and they will see that
the duty which dictated their course in
1886 calls for the same conduct in 1898.
They have but to fix their minds upon the
consequences of victory of the party
which. nationally. still stands for the free
silver doctrine adopted at Chicago. in order
to see the clear necessity of keeping Mary
land true to her record of no compromise
en- the paramount issue of financial sound
ness,

They Don't Want to Fight.
From the Cleveland Leader.

About 225,000 men enlisted in the service
of the United States during the war, but il
is not known that more than one pugilist
college foot ball players and noted amateur
athletes jumped at the chance to bear arms
for their country, but the prize fighters were
quite willing to let others run the risks and
endure the hardships of military service
So much for the latest test of the theory
cherished by some foolish persons that the
prize ring stimulates national courage and
is nursery of heroism.

GRAY 0NPEACE COMMISSION
DELAWARE SENATOR GETS PLACE
DECLINED BY WHITE.
DEMOCRATS ARE REPRESENTED.
New Member h one 81 the Best Known
mon In Public Lifa-Body
New Complete.

Justice White having declined the
honor the president Friday named
Senator Gray, Of Delaware, as the fifth
member Of the peace commission. This
completes the personnel Of the COM
mission, which stands:
Secretary Day, Senators Davis, Frye
and Gray and Hon. Whitelaw Reid.
In selecting Senator Gray the presi-
dent has given democratic representa-
ton on the commission. The APP
pointment probably will necessitate
the retirement Of Mr.. Gray from the
Anglo-American commission which Is
conducting its session in Canada, as
this commission will resume its work
about the time the peace commission
ers sail for Paris.
The position was offered 10 the SEN
ator several days ago, but at that time
was declined. The president, how
ever, further urged Mr.. Gray to ae-
cept and his final agreement was Sc
cured Friday.
Senator Gray is one of the best
known men in public life, having been
a prominent figure in the senate for
the last twelve years. He was born at
New Castle, Del, in 1910, and was
graduated at Princeton. lie served as
attorney general of Delaware and later
was appointed to the senate when
Thomas f. Bayard entered the first
Cleveland cabinet as secretary of state.
Mr.. Gray has been in the senate
continuously since then, serving with
distinction, being one Of the recog-
nized forces in debate and in the shap-
ing of important legislation. he is a
member of the senate committee on
foreign relations, thus making three
members of that ommittee-Davis,
Frye and Gray-on the commission.
On foreign questions Mr.. Gray has
generally been regarded as opposed to
expansion, his senate votes having
been against the annexation of Hawaii.
Now that the commission is COM
plete it is expected the American case
will be made up and the commission
given its final instructions. The COM
missioners will meet here about the
10Th instant, prior to sailing for Paris,
at which time they will meet the presi-
dent and he made aware in a general
way of the views of the administers
ton.

PrIsoner AdmIts the Crime.

The prisoner made no resistance.
He even sang as he walked along, say
ing:
81 did it," and "she must be
dead.
At the police station he declared
that he was starving anarchist, with
no hatred for the poor, but only for the
rich. ."
The assassin, while being interro3a-
ted by the magistrate, said he visited
Geneva with the intention of killing
the Due d'Orleans, but the latter had
already left.
Lucessi, or Laccheni, followed the
duke of Evian about twenty-five miles
northeast of Geneva, whore he was
again unsuccessful. He then return
ed to Geneva, and learned from the
papers of the presence of the Austrian
empress. All day Friday he logged
her footsteps, but found no opportu-
nifty to carry out his purpose, though
he watched the hotel Beaurivage all
day.
Saturday afternoon about 1870, he
said, he saw the valet of the empress
leaving the hotel and going toward
the landing. He inferred from this
that the emnress was going to take
the steamboat, and he hid himself
behind a tree on the quay, with the
file concealed in his right sleeve. In
a few minutes the empress, accom-
panied by her lady of honor, appeared
and the assassin struck the file home.
Lucessi confessed that he has been
an anarchist since he was thirteen
years old.
eff all anarchists did their duty as
have done mine," he said, "Bour-
geois society would soon disappear.
He admitted that he knew the crime
was useless, but said he committed il
for the "sake Of example,"

President Mckinley Names Him For
Place on Important Commission.
Information was received in Allan
ia, Ga, that General John B. Gordon,
commander of the Confederate Vete-
rams Association, has been asked by
President Mckinley to accept a posi-
ton as a member of the commission to
examine into the conduct of the COM
missary and medical departments of
the army.
A telegram signed by President Nc
Kinley was received by General Cor
dons family in the absence of the gem
eral, who has been out of the city for
a number Of days.
In the communication President
Mckinley expressed the opinion that
General Gordon would do the country
a great service by accepting a position
and earnestly hoped that he would see
fit to become member.
The specific object of the commits
sion on which General Gordon has
been placed is to examine into the con-
duct of the commissary, quartermas-
ter and medical bureaus of the war de-
partment, and into the extent, causes
and treatment of sickness in the field
and in the camps.
Tt is the desire of the war depart
ment that the president shall be zlade
acquainted with the whole and exact
truth as to the conduct of the depart
ment of the army mentioned, since SO
much criticism has been directed Of
them by the press and even officials OF
the army.
The appointment of General Gordon
is one of especial honor, since the
work of the board will be Of far reach
ing Importance, as the result of the
commission investigation will teach
valuable lessons to the country in case
another war is undertaken.
