The Republicans appear to have got

maintain the existing money standard.
lin Congress they framing legislation
calculated to protect the standard from
some of the assaults that it is now open
to. As it is at present, the secretary
of the treasury has it in his power to
practically put the treasury on silver
basis. If a silver administration should
come in. it would not require a free
coinage law to bring about a debased
currency. The secretary could simply
exercise the discretion that is now his
and announce his determination to pay
the government notes, when present
ed. in silver, instead of gold. As soon
as this was done, it would be evidence
that gold was the more highly esteemed
by the government and it would go to
a premium, as compared with silver.
The proposed law will make the gov
ernment obligations payable in gold
coin only. There are other important
provisions. Some of them aim to pro-
tect the treasury reserve from green
back raids; some to increase bank cir
culation; some to provide for more
small banks. The Republicans in the
House are apparently well united in
favoroit this legislation and quite num-

1t is apparent that our British cous-

with the Beers. The latter are good
fighters and appear to be able to take
a good licking and come back for more

made little progress so far and when
the time comes-if it does-that the
Beers are compelled to fight within
their own mountain recesses they will
innict more serious losses than they
have thus far Quite likely, if com
plcations with other powers do not
arise, Great Britain will be able to

success will "stagger humanity" It

that the state shall pay no costs when

Many OF them talk and vote for pro-

MUTINY ABOARD THE

The Crew Objected to the Quality

Them

PHILADELPHIA, July "A local pa
per will tomorrow publish q story to the
effect that a mutiny developed on the
cruiser Panther, now at League Island
Navy Yard, while on her way from San
Juan, Porto Rico, to this port, and that
it was necessary TO place twenty-four men
in irons.
According to the story, while the
Panther was at San Juan in command Of
Captain George c. Reiter the greater por-
tion of her crew rebeled against the food
and asked to be transferred elsewhere
Several desertionS occurred, and the de-
parture Of the cruiser, it is said was
hastened for fear she would be so seri-
ously crippled from this cause that she
when her time came would be unable to
leave.
On the voyage home it became necessary
to place number of the crew in con-
finement, although there was no open or
violent breach of discipline manifested. 1t
is stated that the INSTRUMENTATION has
been reported to the Navy Department at
Washington, but no information regarding
the affair could be cleaned to-day from
the navy yard officials nor from the Off
GERS of the Panther.
