MOI Settling SILVER
Denied That the Administra-
ton Is Still Negotiating.
'lT MAY SETTLE ITSELF
BY Reason of the Unprece-
denied Gold Production.

New York, April IA dispatch from
Washington says: SO far os the report
of the British-Indian currency commission
tends to show that there has been airy
serious consideration by the American
cabinet of the question of another inter
national monetary conference, or of the
ratio for the coinage of gold and silver, it
is misleading. There IS the highest au-
thority for the statement that there La
been no serious consideration Of the ques-
ton by the cabinet since the failure OF
the last monetary conference, ana that II
is highly improbable that the United
States, under the present administration,
will take an initiative for the calling OF
another. 1t can be stated on the came
authority, however, that the United States
will accept any invitation that may be
issued by any cher nation for such con-
ference and that the present adnlinistra-
ton would be inclined to go as far in in
creasing the use of silver as other leading
commercial nations might be willing 70 60.
The enormous increase in the production
of gold within the last few years and the
prospects that the annual output of the
mines Oh the WOfIQ Will increase tOL EiSIiy
years have served to convince many who
formerly advocated RECOMMENDATION Of sill
yer by an international agreement that
such step is unnecessary.
George E. Roberts, director of the mint,
whose official position gives much sig
nifcance to what he says, says that he
was formerly an advocate of an inteSna-
tional agreement, but that in view of the
great change in the situation, due to in
creased gold production, he did not be-
lieve that such an agreement was now
possible, because there was no longer
necessity for it, and it would be impos-
sible to interest people in it.
The Rcrease in gold production" he
said, sis olmost inccnceivable. 1 have
made a calculation based on the most re-
liable data obtainable, which shows that
by the year 1900, the annual production of
gold alone in the world viii equal the pro-
duction of gold and silver combined in
1896. This means that by the time of the
next presidential campaign gold alone will
supply the volume of money that Mr..
Bryan and his followers in the last cam
paign contended was necessary. This
leaves the advocates of free coinage very
little ground upon which to stand"

JUDGE M'ATEE DENIES
All His Wife's Allegations in Her
Petition for Divorce.

Kansas City, Mo, April 11.-Judge John
L. McAtee, associate justice OF the su-
preme court OF Oklahoma, filed in Judge
Gates court yesterday his answer to the
suit for divorce begun against him March
by Mrs Elizabeth l. B. McAtee of Kan
sas City. He denies all her charges and
asks that the court grant the divorce to
him instead of to her, on the ground Of
desertion.
Mrs. McAtee, who is the widow of the
late Mr. Platt, of the real estate firm of
Harrison & Platt, lives in an elegant home
at 3l30 Troost avenue. She married Judge
McAtee October 6, 1896, and, according to
his answer, deserted him December q,
1897 During that time they had lived to-
gether only about six months.
Judge McAtee, who is represented by At
torney Daniel 3. Henderson, says that his
judicial duties called him away from home
four and a half months in the year. He
denies that it was agreed between him
and his wife before marriage that they
were TO live in Kansas City, and he also
denies that he ever failed to contribute TO
her support, as she charges.
In her divorce petition Mrs. McAtee said
that Judge McAtee forced her to go
around the circuit with him and to put
up at hotels devoid of cOuvenIences. In
reply to this Judge McAtee states that
they had comfortable and suitable apart
ments in the best hotels. respectively, in
the various cities and towns of the terri
tory"
The only two hotels that they ever stop
ped at together were the Kingfisher hotel
and the Okla, of Guthrie, where they lived
from January 10 10 January Is, 1897, and
from October . TO December Is, 1896
While there he declares they occupied
the best rooms in each OF said hotels
which are the best in the respective cities
where they are located, and that they
were the best rooms in said hotels
and were comfortably. adequately and
well furnished rooms. and that the plain
tif went to them willingly and went with
the defendant at those times of her own
choice. Defendant further says that he
never required plaintiff 10 accompany him
in his official visits to the remote counties
o. his said j<iicial district, where the
accommodations were less attractive, but
at such times. upon her request therefor,
consented 10 her return 10 Kansas City

the souvenirs Of her remarkable engage
ment.
1t should be remarked here that the
| Duke is far from equaling n rank many
! men who have damired Cleo de Merode.
| How many of them have proposed mar
1 rage to her IS not certain, but from her
/ statement it must be assumed that the
majority have done so. Al least one King.
an Archduke and numerous princes have
/ Frustrated themselves at her feet.
One Of her most iHustrious. conspicuous
and persistent admirers was Leopold, King
Of the Belgians. He sat in the last row at
the opera night after night, and loaded her
with presents He offered her i lucrative
situation at the head Of the ballet at the
opera in Brussels, but she said she would
rather stay in Paris.
If King Leopold proposed marriage to her
it was certainly merely complimentary,
as Cleo woul say for he Is already mar
ried and a grandfather. Unquesuonabiy
his appreciation of art Is intense.
As for the youthful Duke Of Manchester,
his exploit in getting engaged 10 Cleo DE-
Merode is only one of the many that have
enlvened his brief career. and IS not likely
to be the last. He had already three crowd
ed years Of glorious life since he was
emancipated from a tutor.
The Duke is a small. vivscous. good
looking. clever and utterly reckless For
his position he IS extremely poor. but the
prestige of his great rank and ancient
family enables him to do much as he likes

Lord Vaudeville. it maye be recalled.
when he visited the United States and won

hope not.

mysterious as ever. The verdict rendered
by the coroner's jury was TO the effect
that he had been murdered by persons
unknown. The bondsmen, who now have
charge Of the office, say there is no
shortage, which indicates that he was
murdered and did not commit suicide, as
was the opinion of many of our citizens.
