Former President Stands by the Views
He Expressed in Letter to Chicago
Business Men.

Louisville. Ky, Oct l2.-John s. Green
of this city. has received a letter from
former President Cleveland saying he has
not altered the views expressed in a let
ter sent to the Chicago business men on
April l3. 1895.
Mr. Green wrote to Mr.. Cleveland. say
ing his friends here were in doubt as to
the position he held, and asked him TO
state his views. Mr.. Cleveland's letter
is dated Buzzard's Bay. Oct. I. and reads:
II have received your letter, inclosing
a copy of my letter written over four
years ago to the business men of Chica-
go. / had not seen IL in a long time, but
1t seems to me could not state that
case better at this time II | should try.
have not changed my opinion, as then
expressed, in the least"
Nr. Cleveland's letter to the Chicago
business men was about 1000 words in
length. and was devoted entirely TO the
financial question. In IL he said:
if reckless discomfort and wild expert
ment should sweep our currency from It's
safe support the most defenceless OF all
who suffer In that time of distress and
national discredit will be the poor, as
they reckon the loss IN their scantY snp-
port, and the laborer and workingman,
as he sees the money he has received for
his toll shrink and shrivel in his hand
when he tenders IL for the necessities TO
supply his humble home.
FAITH IN THE PEOPLE.
II will not believe that If our people are
afforded an intelligent opportunity for
sober second thought they will sanction
schemes that. however cloaked, mean
disaster and confu sion. nor that they will
consent, by undermining the foundation
OF a safe currency, to endanger the benz
eficent character and purpose OF their
government
'rhe situation we are now confronting
demands that those who appreciate the
Importance of this subject, and they
ought to be the first To see impending
danger, should no longer remain indif-
ferent or overconfdent.
IF the sound money sentiment abroad
The Providence news. (Providence [R.I.]) 1891-1906, 1900-10-12

in the land is TO save US from mischief
and disaster, IL must be crystsllized and
combined and made Immediately active.
1T is dangerous TO overlook the fact
that a vast number OF our people. with
scant opportunity thus far to examine
the question In all its aspects. have
nevertheless, been ingeniously pressed
with special suggestions, which, In this
time of misfortune and depression, find
willing listeners prepared TO give Gre
dence TO any scheme which is plausibly
presented as a remedy for their unfortu-
nate condition.
1T ought not to be difficult to convince
the wage Garner that II there were bene-
fits arising from a degenerated currency
they would reach him least of all and
| last OF all.
In an unhealthy stimulation OF prices
| an increased cost of all the needs OF ms
| home must be his portion. while he is at
the same time vexed with vanishing Wis
| ions of increased wages and an easier
lot. The pages of history and experiences
are full of these lessons.
AN INsIDIoUs ATTEMPT.
IAN insidious attempt is made 10 create
a prejudice against the advocates Of a
safe and sound currency by the insinua-
ton, more or less directly made, that they
belong TO financial and business classes,
thy with the common people of the land,
but for selfish and wicked purposes are
willing to sacrifice the interests of those
outside their circle.
IL believe that capital and wealth.
through combination and other means,
sometimes gain an undue advantage, and
Il must be conceded that the maintenance
of 8 sound currency may I'm a sense be in
vested with greater or less importance
to individuals according to their condi-
tions and circumstances.
1T is, however only difference in de-
gree. since II is utterly impossible that
any one in our broad land. rich or poor
whatever may be his occupation, and
whether dweiAng In a centre OF flna<'e
and commerce or in a remote corner OF
our domain, can be really benefited by a
financial scheme not alike beneficial or
that any one should he excluded from a
common and universal interest in the
safe character and stable value of the
currency of the country"

B. & O. Detective John Shorts. of
this city, wha has charge of the COM
pany's secret service in this State
brought about the arrest of the two
parties, employees of the road, who
have been robbing the company for
months past. The parties were Con-
ductor C. B. knight and Brakeman
Harry Bartlett Of the yard crew at
Fairmont.
The officials Of the company have
been mystified for several months past
over robberies occurring in the yard.
Car after car has been broken open and
valuable freight, amounting to hun
dreds of dollars stolen. Traps were
laid but to no avail. When the cx-
element of n robbery died out, an
other occurred.
Detective Short has been at work on
the case for some time. On the morn
ing of the Goth inst. a car was broken
into and two cases of Overholt wiskey,
"a quarts were stolen. The cases were
broken up, and thrown into the Mo-
nongahela river. Nineteen quarts were
buried near the pump house in the
yard Search warrants were issued
and two quarts were found at knights
residence. The two men, after giving
battle to the night operator at the
pump house, proceeded to load up on
the remaining 3 quarts.
Bartlett was given a hearing Satur-
day at Fairmont. The night opera
tor made a confession duplicating
both men. Bartlett was held in the
sum of $500 bond for his appearance
before the next Marion county grand
jury.
knight will be given a hearing at
Fairmont to-day. The case is not yet
concluded. Other parties will be i'm
plicated oon and their arrests will
follow.
The systematic robbery of the COM
pany at both Fairmont and Grafton
or engine DraSSeS and other metals,
which was broken up about two weeks
ago by Detective Shorts good work,
was the first information the company
had that these valuable thefts were
being committed. The graphic ac-
count of the affair published IN the
Register was brought to the attention
of the head Of the company secret SER
vice at Baltimore The officials on
that end of the road have been put at
work along the same lines, and,
through Detective Shorts work it has
been discovered hat thousands of dol
lars worth of brass alone have been
stolen from the yards at Cumberland,
Md.
