allowed only fragmentary discussion
of the question was as much a vic
tory for the Demo Gratis as for the
Republicans It made clear the
issue in the House 1t demonstrated
that the Democrats are for free
silver aud the Republicans are for a
single gold standard
The vote by which the resolution
was defeated-1S2 to 132-was q
strictly party vote, with the excep-
ton of Mr.. Linney of North Caro-.
lima, who voted with the Democrats,
and White, the negro Congressman,
who lodged. All the Democrats
and Populists voted for it and the
Republicans against it.
The country is to be congratulate
ed in one respect The monetary
issue is no longer obscured with
doubt aud uncertainty The battle
OF the standards is still on. The Re
publican party is now unreservedly
committed to the gold monometal-
lism. The campaign of 1898 will
prove an easy victory for the Demo-
Gratis, but the supreme contest is to
be in 1900, when the forces OF silver
will conclusirely triumph-"-A NJ

The house was built in 1758 by Col Roger Morris as wedding present for his bride, Mary Philipse, daughter of Frederick Philipse, second lord of the manor of Philipseburg. During the revolution, Col. Morris being a loyal ist, the property was confiscated by the patriots. Mime. Jumel purchased the estate in the early part of the century and remained in possession of it until her death in 1865.

CRUISER MAINE BL0HN UP
An Awful Disaster in Havana
 Harbor Last Night
A Long List of Killed and Wounded The Explosion Shook all Havana. The Loss of the Battle Sh D Be- lieVed to be Comp ets.

Havana, Feb. 15.-At a quarter of 10 o'clock this evening a terrible explosion took place on board the United States cruiser Maine in Ha- vana 'harbor. Many were killed or wounded. All the boats of the Span ish 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 be- lieved that the cruiser is totally de- stroyed. The explosion shook the whole city and windows were broken in all the houses.
 A correspondent of the Associated Press says he has conversed with sev- eral of the wounded sailors and un- derstands from them that the explosion took place while they were asleep. so that they can give no particulars as to the cause.
 LOSS TOLD IN WASHINGTON.
 Washington, Feb. 15.-The secre- tary of the navy received the following telegram from Captain Sigsbee: "The Maine was blown up in Havana harbor at $40 tonight and destroyed. Many were wounded and doubtless many killed and drowned. The wounded and others are on board a Spanish man-of-war and Ward line steamer. Send lighthouse tender from Key f0,. I1 fI,o r:1 of equipment still above water. No one has other clothes than those upon him. Public opinion should be suspended until further report. All Jenkins and Merritt are not yet ac- counted for. Many Spanish officers. including representatives of General Blanco are now with me and express sympathy.
 (Signed) "SIGSBEE." The officers referred to in the above dispatch are Lieutenant Friend w. Jenkins and Assistant Engineer Dar- win R. Merritt. From the wording of the dispatch the navy department thinks it possible they were on shore at the time of the accident. The sec | retary of the navy received another dispatch from Key West at the same time with the abe ge, but it's contents | were not made public. Orders fo1 lighthouse tenders were at once sent to Key West in plain language, thus avoiding the delay that would have arisen from the use of a cipher.

LaGrange, Texas, Feb. 15.-The liz nite mines on the Manton place, about three miles west of LaGrange, near ths Colorado river, bid fair to make Ia Grange coal supply point in the near future. The vein is from eighteen to twenty-one feet thick and the bottom half is a different coal from the top half and different from any coal in Texas, splitting perpendicularly. while the top half split horizontally. The coal carries about 52 per cent fixed carbon and 5 per cent ash, does not crack from heat, but burns in original shape. It has been successfully used for compressing cotton and it is said has done the work for 50 per cent of the cost of territory coal, and this being the hardest test teat can be given insures it's adaptability to all steam uses.
