DEMOCRATIC ADDRESS.

the Financial Issue.

Appeal to the People to Unite Upon
the Financial Issue.
To the People-The surrender of the Re
publican party to the advocates of the
gold standard and monopoly is at last
complete. The present administration.
called to power on the solemn pledge iof
the Republican convention at st. Louis to
promote bimetallism, mas formulated and
sent to congress a bill, the leading pur-
pose Of which, the honorable secretary Of
the treasury avows, IS to commit the
country more thoroughly TO the gold
standard. The country has already, for
4 years, been so thoroughly committed
20 this standard, partly by law and partly
by the usurDations of the executive
branch of the government, that its effects
are seen and 1elt on every hand. Wages
are reduced: work is harder 10 get: the
weight Of debt is doubled; the value of
land and other property is reduced one
half or more until the lives OF the Deo-
Die are made bitter with hard bond

OF humanity to have this condition of
things more thoroughly ests biished.

Havana, Feb. 15.-At a quarter of ten
o'clock this evening a terrible explosion
took place on board the United States
cruiser Maine in Havana harbor. Many
were killed or wounded.
All the boats of the Spanish cruiser
Alfonso XIII are assisting. AS yet the
cause of the explosion is not apparent.
The wounded sailors of the Maine are
unable to explain it. It is believed that
the cruiser is totally destroyed.
The explosion shook the whole city.
The windows were broken in all the
houses.
The correspondent of the Associated
Press says he has conversed with sew
eral of the wounded sailors and IN
derstands from them that the eXplo-
sion took place while they were asleep.
so that they can give no particulars as
to the cause.
The widest CONSERVATION prevails in
Havana. The wharves are crowded
with thousands of people. 1t is be-
lieved the explosion occurred in a small
powder magazine. At a quarter of IL
o'clock what remains of the Maine is
still burning
Captain Sigsbee and the other Off
GERS have been saved.
OVER 4 HUNDRED KILLED.
It is estimated that over a hundred
of the crew were killed, but it is i'm
possible yet to give exact details. Ad-
miral Mantereta has ordered that boats
of all kinds should go to the assistance
The Havana firemen are giving aid,
tending carefully to the wounded as
they are brought on shore. 1t is a ter
rible sight.
General Zolano and the other generals
have been ordered by Captain General
Blanco to take steps to help the Names
crew in every way possible. The cor
respondent of the Associated Press has
been near the Maine in boat of the
cruiser Alfonso XIII, and seen others of
the wounded who corroborate the state
ment of those first interviewed, that
they were already asleep when the ex-
plosion occurred.
EXPLOSION IN THE BOW.
Captain Sigsbee says the explosion
occurred in the bow of the vessel He
received wound in the head. Orders
were given to the other officers to save
themselves as best they could. The
latter, who were literally thrown from
their hunks in their night clothing, gave
the necessary orders with great self
possession and bravery.
At 1:3O the Maine continues burning.
The first theory was that there had
been preliminary explosion in the
Santa Barbara (magazine) of powder
or dynamite below the water.
Admiral Mantereta believes that the
first explosion was of a grenade that
was hurled over the navy yard.
TWO HUNDRED MISSING.
The report that Captain sigsbee was
wounded is inaccurate. Captain Sigs-
bee. with other officers. went in a small
boat to the Ward Line steamer City of
washington. Two officers and more
than 200 of the crew are missing. Some
of the crew who We're able to support
themselves by swimming were saved by
the boats.
Six of the wounded crew and one of
the officers have been taken to the mill
