MONEY FOR PHILIPPINES.
Congress May Authorize coln Worth Fifty
 Gents to Replace Mexican Money

OentS 10 Keplace MeEcen Woney
 The prop ,sition that IS being dis cussed is one to provide silver coinage for the Philippines that will take the place of the Mexican peso, now gener- ally used there, says the Washington Star. This coinage will be issued by the government on very much the same principle that silver dollars were coined under the sherman act and about as silver coin for India is pro- vided by the British government
 The idea which is dominant among republican leaders of the Philippines committee and of the Senate is that the United States government shall coin what will probably be called Philippine dollars, as in the judgment of the authorities they are needed for the purposes of trade. The plan that Is being considered by them is to have the government purchase silver for this purpose as needed and to coin it, the Philippine dollar to be worth 50 cents. The idea of opening the hints for the free coinage of silver for the Philippines or any other possessions of the United States has never been seriously considered by republican leaders.
 The money now in circulation in the Philippine Islands is chiefly the Mexican dollar, two of which pass fer one American gold dollar. The action contemplated by leading republicans in Congress is to replace that dollar with an American coin that will have about it's same value. This coin will, in fact, contain less than 50 cents worth of bullion silver, and when once put out by the government will practi. cally take care of itself just as the coin put out by the British govern. ment in India does. Mir. COnant, who made au investigation of conditions of finance in the Philippines and re. ported on them to the Secretary of the Treasury, recommended that this coiu be maintained on a parity with the American gold dollar, but the domin. ant opinion of republican leaders iu the Senate does not favor such a plan, although that proposition will be dis cussed by the Philippine committee.
 It has been found by actual ex, perience that the British coin in India not maintained On parity with gold takes care of itself and circulates While it is coined in India, it circulatee chiefly in China and lately has been circulated largely at Pekin, being ac' cepted there. In the same way it is anticipated that a silver coin to be known as the Philippine dollar is expected to move toward China and be absorbed there, making necessary g frequent replenishment of the Philip pine coinage by this government which 1t is proposed to do just as l frequent and in such quantities as the circumstances seem to demand It it believed that this plan will not only supply coins more acceptable to the tilipinos than those they now have | but that it will make use for large amount of American silver

Supt. King, of the st. Louis di-
vision, has given it out as authen-
tic that the company has awarded
the contract for grading from Ma
rion, KY, to the Ohio river.
While Mr.. King does not say so
1t is thought that the road will
cross the river at Cave-in. Rock
and connect with their line at FL
dorado, as this is The most FEAST
BILE route. IL this is done the COM
psny will und oubtedly extend
their Golconda line on up the riv-
or aud connect with this line.
Mr.. King merely states the con-
tract has been awarded for the gra
ding OF the road from Marion, Ky.
to the Ohio river, thus completing
the line between Nashville and st
Louis. 1t is claimed by some that
they intend to go from Marion to
Golconda, as that is the only place
on the Ohio river that they have a
road, aud in the wording of his
statement they are justified in this
assertion; but taking everything
into consideration We feel conf
dent that the road will go through

Mr. J. II. Morse, the Presiden,
OF the Senator mine near Prince.
ton, has been giving a great deal
OF his time and attention to the
de 'elopment Of that really won.
dsrful property during the pas.
few months. v
Mr. Morse finds that his health,
hardly keeping pace with his am-
bilious desires to press the work
night and day, and under the adj
vice OF his medical adviser he will
spend the balance Of the winter
either in the mountains Of Ten
uessee or at Asheville, North Car
olina. Senator Deboe, who is also
largely interested in this property,
will necessarily be Obliged to re-
main at Washington during the
present session Of congress. I'm.
der such circumstances and during
the stormy season, work will cease
at the mine, to be resumed on the
first approach of open weather in
the spring, with very large force
of miners.
The Senator mine, when first
discovered, created great deal Of
interest in mining circles and that
interest has been intensified as
depth has been gained. The ores
of lead and Zinc from the grass
roots to the present bottom of the
shaft have been in such great bod
les that the company was advised
toput up a milling plant at once.
With praiseworthy conservatism
they thought best to wait until
the output of ore would reach 80
tons daily. This means, of course,
100 feet in depth, drifts run, and
stopping ground opened. The lead
ore in this shaft carries fully 30
ounces Of silver per ton, a percent
age that no other ore in the dis
triot reaches, so far as we know.
The Senator mine has a marvellous
future before it, with such men at
the mining helm and such bodies
OF ore in the shaft.

CHAPTER XVIII.

The election was to be held on
Tuesday, and the Monday Immediate
ly preceding had been fraught with
matters of grave concern for Col.
Keever. The most momentous of
these matters was the strike of
Sampson for back pay and higher
wages; the most momentous be-
cause, like the newly-started snow
ball, the incident grew amazingly in
Colonel's disgrace. his Punishment
from the town, and the wrecking of
the Blizzard.
To begin with, the Blizzard had
never been much of financial sue
cess. 1t was a paper Of Johnsonian
excellence; that is to say, so ponder
Gus in it's utterancc that it had to
be read with Webster-unabridged
at ones elbow. The little fishes
talked like whales on every line and
through every column. In a COM
munity necessarily deficient in it's
supply of Websters, the Blizzard was
venerated and feared because of it's
evident learning. For the same rea-
son, but few subscribed for it; and
so small was the subscription list at
the time the unfeeling Sampson went
on strike and so meager was the ad.
vertising patronage that the Colonel
had barely two dollars that he could
call his own.
His printing "plant" had cost him
$500, and he had paid all but $3.50 OF
that debt. He had no lots in Con
cord, and if called to strict &C
counting by Guy it would have beer
found that there were 100 or sc
which had not been turned over
That very Monday, Pedro Smith hat
pressed the Colonel for board bill
long past due; the news compan,
had sent his 'patent outsides" by
express, C. o. D., and the bundle was
still in the express Office while the
! forms waited in vain on the "Army'
press
What was the Colonel going to do:
Racked by these worries he had en-
tered his Office only to be confronted
by Sampson who demanded money
