MAY NOMINATE TELLER
Want the Senator to Run For Gov / ernor to Save Silver Party.

Denver, Col, Aug. 19.-The silver re- publican party of Colorado is rapidly going to pieces. When Moffatt, Strat- ton, Brown, and other millionaire silver republicans came out openly for Me Kinley the party began to slough off gradually at the edges, and now that Editor Stevens of Colorado Springs and State Chairman A. M. Stephenson, who were the head and front of the party organization, have deserted, it is realized that desperate measures are needed to save the party. It is now proposed to see what effect it would have to make Senator Henry M. Tel Ter the fusion nominee for governor. Not that Teller wants the nomination, for he does not, but the silver republi- cans want him to have it, and it is believed that they would rally to his support as they would to the support of, no other man who could be named
 Teller is strongly against Mckinley as ever he was, and there is tinge of bitterness in his opposition now. It is confidentially believed that he will be willing to make the gubernatorial race if he can be convinced that it is neces- sary to the preservation of the silver republican party. and that by running he will be aiding the cause of Bryanism in the state. It will be no trick to con- vince him of that. Teller is easily the most popular man in the state. Thou sands of silver republicans would sup port him for governor who would not vote to return him to the senate to Vote against expansion, and their support of him would tend to keep them from open return to the republican party, which is the chief end sought.
 The upshot of it all is that the lead CTS of all the anti-republican parties are laying the wires to nominate Teller for governor.

THREE WHITES SHOT BY NEGROs
Sheriff's Posse in Pursuit, With Indica-
 tions Pointing to Race War.

Sylvania, Ga, Aug. 19.-Last night R. r. Harrington and Milton Mears, white were driving home in their buggy. On the road they met two negroes named Alexander. in a buggy. The wheels of the vehicles collided. A quarrel ensued. when the negroes drew pistols and shot Harrison and Mears dead.
 The news quickly spread and Captain Jesse T. Wade organized a posse to capture the murderers. As the posse approached the house of the Alexanders a number of shots in rapid succession were fired into it. Captain Wade fell, mortally wounded. The posse withdrew and went for Sheriff Thompson. The sheriff, with a reinforced posse, is now in pursuit.
 In the section where the tragedy oc- cured the black population sonsider- ably outnumbers the white, and the in- formation is that the colored neighbors of the Alexanders will assist them in resisting the sheriff.

ESCAPE FROM BOXERS
Pittsburg Women Had Thrilling
 Adventure.

Pittsburg. Pa, Aug. 19.-Miss Char lotte Elizabeth Hawes of Pittsburg. a Presbyterian missionary at Wei Hsein, who. with Rev. Frank Chalfant of Pittsburg and Miss Boughton of New York. all dressed as Chinese. made a thrilling escape over a wall from burn ing missionary buildings at Wei Hsein, arrived home today. She was in the midst of the Boxer troubles and said:
 The deaths of Baron Ketteler and the Japanese chancellor in Pekin were horrible. the latter being buried alive in the sand with his head down.
 When the Boxers broke into the rear of our mission compound we decided to try to escape through the front yard. which was empty. We all started down stairs and through the sitting room. All the Boxers who were in the dining room needed to do right at this juncture was to open the folding doors and they would have had us all, but it seems that Gods providence saved us, for the Boxers could not understand how to open the doors. and by the time they finally did get them open we were away.
 MT. Chalfant had ladder out in the yard on Saturday. This We placed up to the twelve-foot wall, which sepa- rated us from the outside. Up we went. and just as we were going over the wall some Boxers who were in the next yard cried out: The foreign devils are get ting away; kill thsm, kill them.' But the Boxers who were in our compound were too busy looking things over in MT. Chalfant's study and examining the boxes of the stuff we had packed and they did not attempt to follow us.
 We hid in the ditches and fields un- til dark and in keeping from roads finally reached the German mines at Fang Tze. The dwellings there are surrounded by big wall, covered with broken beer and wine bottles, so that the natives could not climb over"

NO HOPE IN ILLINOIS
German Voters Will Not Support
 Kansas City Platform.

Chicago, Ill.,, Aug. 19.-From the mo- ment the Kansas City convention spe- officially declared for the free and un- limited coinage of silver at Is to 1 and reaffirmed the incendiary uttcrances of the Chicago platform. democratic pros poets of carrying Illinois were hopeless. What chances Bryan ever had of re- versing McKinley's plurality of 141,517 rested solely on the claim that large numbers of German voters would flock to his anti-imperialism banner.
 But events have demonstrated that the platform makers at Kansas City did not count upon the solid sense and political shrewdness of the German voters. These were not deceived for a day by the assertion that imperialism was the paramount issue. They looked around for the signs of an emperor. and the only man yielding a scepter seemed to be William J.. of Lincoln, and as they looked they saw that he waved it with the same old purpose to conjure 50 cents into $1. In their knowledge and experience only kings and emperors have been able to do that. and the his tory of the deba sement of the currency in Germany as in England, France and Sweden, has been that it resulted in robbery of the people.
 That the GermOn voters of Illinois have no intention of supporting Bryan and Stevenson is proved by the forma- tion of Mckinley and Alschuler clubs throughout the state. This is a con- fession that the democrats intended to save the state ticket if they can at the expense of the national It is an ac- knowledgement of failure to hoodwink the German voters with the false cry of imperialism. It draws the line be- tween state and national issues. leaving Bryan so unmistakably outside the breast works that no sound money Ger man who prefers Alschuler to Yates will have any excuse for voting the democratic ticket.
 Illinois democrats have virtually thrown Bryan, imperialism and free silver overheard in hopes of saving Al schuler and their local ticket. And hey have acted wisely.

BRENNAN IDENTIFIED.

St. Louis. Aug. 19.-Maurice Brennan. who is under arrest, charged with be- ing dynamiter. was identified today as one of the men connected with the blowing up of street cars in the south ern section of the city several weeks; ago. Edward Davidson. conductor for the St. Louis Transit cOmpsny, made the identification.
 It is stated that enough is known at police headquarters to justify the statement that the dynamiting of the cars of the Transit company has been done by members of a regularly organ ized committee, under plans formulated by councils held at fixed places by per sons inimical to the Transit company.
 Members have been chosen to use the dynamite at places and times agreed upon by the committee. The men se- Iected have been provided with dyna- mite and practically compelled to carry out the work as ordered by the commit tee referred to-

LETTER TO PALMER
Reiterates Series of Plain Truths Stigmatizing Kansas City Platform as Base anG Cowardly and Ap pealing to High Minded Demo- crats Who See the Baseness In Its Policy.

New York, Aug. Ex-Governor RoOse- out for publication a letter which he had written on August g to General John M. Palmer, of Springfield, Ill, rel ative to the St. Paul speech made by the governor, in which he had been quoted as making derogatory remarks concerning the democrats The letter says in part:
 ''I notice that in your recent very manly interview, stating why You could not support polite democracy and the Kansas City platform and nominees. you allude to a statement I was sup posed to have made. attacking dem ocracy generally in my St. Paul speech.
 You have evidently seen the report, which was not merely garbled. but fal- sified. I stand by this speech absolu- tely, and have nothing to explain in connection with it, but I do wish to point out where it's meaning was delib- erately perverted.
 Tn my speech. I began by saying: We appeal not only to republicans. but to all good citizens who are Americans. in fact as well as in name, to help us in re-electing President Mckinley
 'I ended by saying: Study the Kan sas City platform and you cannot help realizing that its policy (the policy of it's makers and sponsers) is a policy of infamy, that their triumph would mean misery so wide spread that it is almost unthinkable and disgrace so lasting that more than a generation would have to pass before 1t could be wiped out. They stand for lawlessness and dis order, for dishonesty and dishonor. for license and disaster at home and cow ask the support of all Americans who have the welfare of the country at heart, no matter what their political affiliations may have been in the past
 You will see that here I most eN- plicitly draw a line between the men who support and ask the support for the Kansas City platform and all other citizens, whether democrats or republi- cans, I feel that as d matter of fact the greatest possible credit is due to men like you, my dear sir, and other gold democrats who, four years ago, and now, stand for national honor.
 ''1 hold up the policy advocated in the Kansas City platform as base and cowardly policy. to emphasize our right to appeal to countless thousands of high-minded democrats who abhOr baseness and cowardice and are quick to see and disown them"

WOULD POISON YU KENO.
Att mpts on the Life of the Chinese
 Minister in Paris.

Paris, Aug. 19.-A crime truly Pari- sian in it's conception was attempted here today, when an effort was made to poison the Chinese minister, Yu Keng, by means of a subtle perfume. It has excited all Paris as nothing else could during these stifling days.
 Thursday Yu Keng received a letter. It was signed Julie Czerwinska," and contained some dried flowers, which the writer asked the minister to accept.
 The secretary to the legatio Armani di Parma, opened the letter and was immediately overcome by the deadly odor emanating from the flowers. He fell in a faint.
 His recovery was accompanied by violent sickness and vomiting. In fact. his condition presented many charac- teristics of poisoning, and only by prompt treatment was he revived.
 At first the police looked upon the signature. Julie Czerwinska." as fic- titious, but such a woman was discov- cred and arrested. She was found to be mentally deranged, and it is believed her weak mind was further unbalanced by reading of the horrible atrocities in China.
 Where she got her. knowledge of poi sons is not known.
 Arraigned before an examining mag istrate, she rambled in her speech, and told an incoherent story of being the victim of a Polish princess, who vowed to take hideous vengeance for some mysterious wrong done her. presumably by the fiOwer-sending Julie, who is now being carefully watched.
 The flowers are being chemically ana lyzed, and the secretary is slowly re- covering

Three Riot Leaders Arrested In St.

 Brennan and Northway Confessed and have implicated Schwartz.
 The police claim the men under arrest are the ringleaders of the clique of dynamiters that have been operating since the beginning of the strike.
 John Whalen, in whose hall the Eas- ton avenue ddivision of the street rail- way strikers have their headquarters, was arrested today. It is thought to be the theory of the police that dynamite plots were matched in the hall

BOER WOMEN GOOD EATERS.

London, Aug. 19.-While events in South Africa no longer move with their former rapidity, and the closing scenes of the war may lack the theatrical ef- feet which characterized their opening. the correspondents still find much of interest to chronicle in the constantly transforming scene.
 The spectacle is much like that of the early reconstruction days" in the United States during the latter sixties. when the tales of personal valOr had given way to those of heroic devotion to a waning cause.
 'The men are still sullen, the women are still drumlie and sour," writes John Stuart of the Morning Post, ddescribing the Transvaal women about Krugers-l dorp. As I have often before remarksd( these women hate us with hatred cruel as the grave.

ITS FINANCIAL POLICY
Treasury Record of the Re-
 publican Party
Will Be a Strong Pillar For the Republican Campaign Managers. The National Credit.-No Fear of Gold Exports.

Washington, Aug. 19.-The adminis- tration of the treasury department dur ing the last four years will be one of the strongest pillars upon which the re- publican managers will lean in the coming presidential campaign. The passage of the gold standard law by congress has been supplemented by a series of steps by Secretary Gage which have contributed not only to strength en the national credit but to prevent the congregation of money in the treas ury at the expense of the market, maintain an adequate medium of cir culation, and thereby stimulate and en- courage the wave of prosperity due to other conditions. Secretary Gage de- cided soon after the gold standard law W; e, passed that the gold reserve of S150,O00,000 required to be set aside should be constantly replenished with gold from the general fund, so long as the latter contained any gold. This policy kept the reserve intact at the even sum of $50, ,000,0 900 in gold. and stimulated the accumulation of the vel low metal in the treasury until the amount has gone higher than ever be- fore in the history of the country. It has been necessary to take energetic steps on several occasions to prevent stringency in the money market, and further steps of this sort may be re- quired during the summer and autumn. Secretary Gage, with the aid of the gold standard law, has, however, al- ready put nearly $S0.000,000 into the market within the past year, and the present easy condition of money makes it doubtful whether any further meas ures may be required than those now in operation.

WHAT CAN BE DONE,

Further steps will be taken by Secre- tary Gage, if the conditions of the market require, either to transfer some to the national banks or to purchase outstanding bonds and put an end to the interest which they now draw each quarter from the treasury. A surplus of ordinary receipts last year amount ing to $S1. .229,776 is likely to swell into a surplus of $1OO,OOOOOO for the fiscal year which began on July 1 If business conditions continue favorable. The management of such a surplus is all most as difficult for finance minister a $ covering a deficit by the issue of bonds and treasury certificates. The proceeds of the new revenue law, which the Spanish war. have run up to more than $1OO,OO 900 and afford considerable opportunity for the reduction of tax the troubles in China do not subject the country to new and heavy expendi- lures. It is not probable. however, that so large a reduction in taxation as OO,00O, ,00O will be made in any event. since the present rate of revenue is based upon the maximum of business
  erably if a period of depression sets in. Secretary Gage will be able to keep tine surplus under control if the money maket becomes stringent, by purchas- ing bonds. but as a preliminary he would probably suspend the existing offer to deliver Der cent bonds for the old classes under the refunding law The withdrawal of this offer would de- prive the bonds of some of their special value to the banks and permit the treasury to purchase them at a fair price.
 GOLD EXPORTS CAUSE NO ALARM
 The recent exports of gold have not excited alarm at the treasury in view of the great stock of the yellow metal in the treasury and banks. The amountof gold in the treasury broke all previous records early in the present month, and has gone higher almost every day. The total gold held in the reserve fund, the general fund and the trust fund for the protection of gold certificates stood on Wednesday last at S435, ,565, 632. Of this amount $222, 17S,97S was the exclusive property of the United States and the remainder was
