Among the many indications that Demo
Gratis are everywhere getting together for
the coming Presidential campaign is the
following editorial article from the Trenton
True american, which bolted the Chicago
platform and ticket in 1896, but now a
little obscnrely admits that il was buncoed
by the Republicans
"Ex- Comptroller Eckles is inclined TO be
very pessimistic about the chances of
Democratic success, save by the extinc
tion of Bryan and Organism. If the Re
publican Administration at Washington
had done anything toward settling the
currency question, il it had done anything
to establish mon0metallism and the gold
standard, there might be some sense in the
refusal of Democrats to vote against their
party on the silver question But nothing
has been done except to demonstrate. by
neglect, that the much dreaded coinage OF
silver has no possible i'll effect upon our
currency or on business silver dollar
will to-day buy just as much as a gold
dollar and this notwithstanding that the
Government vaults are bursting with nm
used silver and the business interests are
clamoring for enlarged currency. The
bogY seems TO have scared itself out Of
existence, and nobody is better Satisfied
with their own inertness in the juncture
than the Republican Administration that
asked TO be elected in order that it might
stamp out the free silver heresyn
All Democrats and great number Of
Republicans will vote next year to turn
President Mckinley out Of the White
House, and platforms will be Of little prac-
ticai importance.

Il is within bounds to put the consump.
ton of TIN plate in this country at q
million of boxes per aHnum, and the recent
Advance of Sl.70 box from the fair profit
price when the trust was formed will put
nearly 81 100000 in the treasury of the
trust this year. Formerly the Treasury o.
the United States derived $1,000. 600 year
from the duty on tin plate, but this now
goes to the trust, through its process o.
keeping out foreign and strangIing home
competition. However that is what tbs
American people voted for in 1896.

The problem of shipping cavalry horses
to the Philippines has been difficult one,
as the animals cannot stand long transpor-
tation a. sea unless carried in slings. But
by taking the Northern route along the
Aleutian Islands and down past Japan the
horses could be sent ashore for intervals OF
rest, and this course will be followed by
the transports which will soon sail with
some 5000 animals. The voyage from San
Francisco to the Aleutian Islands would
occupy eight or nine days, and from there
to Nagasaki, Japan, where another stop
could be made, about the same time. By
the route usually followed, the horses
would be continuously at sea from twenty
five to thirty days, and it has been found
that under such circumstances large num-
bers of them would die.

Perfect Arrangements to Prevent the
Spread of the Yellow Scourge.
Washington, Aug. 3.-Advices re-
ceived by Surgeon General Wyman
from Hampton show that the only
change in the yellow fever situation is
the addition of four suspected cases
to those already in existence. These
have been sent from the camp to the
hospital. This information, and the
additional statement that there has
not been a death since o'clock Tues
day night, and that everything with
reference to the disease is more than
favorable, was received from Governor
p T. Woodfine, of the Soldiers Home.
He also wired that he is quite sure
the pestilence will be stamped out.
From DIR. White, who has general
charge of affairs at Hampton, but who
remains away from the institution,
word came that the situation is I'M
changed.
The removal of troops from Fort
Monroe and the officers and their
families, it is expected, will begin this
afternoon. A barge with cars is ex-

then shipped to Old Point by launch
thence to be sent to Hampton
Surgeon General Wyman objected to
locating the troops so far south as
Battery Point, Del, but General Mer-
rift held that 1t would be fatal, in case
any of the men were infected, to take
them north, and Secretary Root took
the same view.
Secretary Root yesterday found thai
the care of the old soldiers at the
Hampton home was entirely within
the power of the national board of sol
diers' homes, and informed the board
that the war department would do any
thing possible to assist it in combat
ing the fever.
