v CITY AND DISTRICT @ Upon the basis of price per line per 1,000 tirculation, the advertising rates of Tux Evrs- to Stax are only about half as high as those of ether Washington papers. But cheapness is not the only merit, Jis service is betier than @ny other paper in the city can possibly give! THE WINDOM SILVER BILL ‘Why Representative Walker Favors it in Preference to the Senate Bill. Representative Walker of Massachusetts, a member of the majority of the coinage, weights and measures committee of the [ouse, has come out strongly in favor of the Windom silver bill and has prepared an interesting com- parison between it and the bill prepared by the Benate finance committee. “I am satisfied,” he said to a Stan re- Porter, “that it is the desire of a large majority of the people of the United Btates that s further effort be made to bring the price of silver and gold together at the Fatio of 1873. While personally I ama mono- metalist, I am willing to try a further exveri- ment by passing the treasury bill in obedience to the popular demand at the minimum risk to our monetary system, but the Senate bill de- parts so widely from all experience that under Bo circumstances could I vote for it. I have compared the two bills. The Secretary's bill to receive so much of the silver uct of the United States, that is, the uct of our own mines and of ores reduced this country, as may be offered at its market value and issue notes against it, ‘THE SILVER PRODUCT OF THE UNITED STATES, including the silver obtained from Mexican ores reduced in this country, aggregates abuut 51,000,000 fine ounces annually. Deducting the amount used annually in the arts, say 6,000,000 ounces, the amount offered would probably ag- gregate 45,000,000 ounces. At the price of $1 per fine ounce the quantity received and on which notes would be issued would amount to $45,000,000, all the product of American mines and smelters. The government is simply the passive agent for the receipt of such American silver as is offered and is not compelled to go abroad and join with foreign speculators in creating a fictitious price for silver. ‘THE SENATE BILL directs the purchase of $4,500,000 worth of sil- ver in each month, regardless of where it was produced. The product of the mines of this country alone being say 46,000,000 ounces, de- dact 6,000,000 ounces, the amount used in arts, leaves about 40.000,000 ounces to buy $54,000.000 worth annually, at the price of $1 per ounce, would require the purchase annually of about 14,000,000 ounces of foreign silver, or over 1,000,000 ounces in each month, The require- ment to purchase #4,500,000 worth in each month would make the government the larg- est operator in creating a fictitious value for silver, and wouid place the department wholly at the mercy of the speculators, even with a moderate capital, who could compel the gov- ernment to pay any price they chose not to ex- ceed the lunit in the bil THE SECRETARY'S BILL authorizes the issue of a currency upon a gold basis and provides a method by which it will always be kept at par with gold by adopting daily, both in the issue and redemption of notes. the ratio of value between the two metals es- tablished by the commercial world. This in- sures an absolutely sound currency at all times. “The Senate bill provides for the issue of Treasury notes upon a gold basis, but makes no provision whatever for maintaining or re- deeming them at their goid value, but on the other hund provides for their redemption in lawful money, which permits of their redemp- tion in a coin the nominal value of which is largely in excess of its bullion value, “By the Secretary's bill the silver received is all pledged for the redemption of the notes and must be kept for that purpose, and therefore the quantity accumulated can create no ap- prehension. “Under the Senate bill the vast accumulation of bullion, with no provision tor its use, will act as a constant menace to the price of silver and to any international agreement looking to the restoration of silver coimage. “The Secretary's bill leaves gold as it is un- der existing law, free comage to all depositors and the issue of gold certificates expressly re- deemable in gold coin. “The Senate bill provides for the purchase of goid and the issue of the same note in pay- ment as is issued in payment of silver pur- chases. This provision is either futile or vicious. As the bill provides for the issue of these notes upon —— of both gold and silver bullion the holder might reasonably de- mand payment in gold. Should this become inconvenient and gold payment be refused the credit of the government would be seriously impaired. “The Treasury bill requires no appropria- tion. The Senate bili would require an appro- Priaion of $54,000,000 a year from the public treasury to purchase silver.” The Muryland Legislature. The senate of Maryland last night finished the second reading of the Poe registration bill and it will be put on its passage tonight. Bills were introduced to amend the oyster law; to facilitate punishment for embezzlement; au- thorizing Talbot, Dorchester and Wicomico counties to subscribe to the capital stock of the Eastern Shore railroad company. The bill re- uiring all newly created corporations to pay ie state a bonus was read a secoud time. The house of delegates, after amending the Fidelity loan and trust company’s bill in sev- eral particulars, laid it on the table by yeas 47, mays 26. House bills incorporating the Trust company of Easton and the Maryland trust company were recommitted to the judiciary committee. Favorable report was made on ‘the bill permitting landlords in Baltimore city to eject tenants in five days instead of fifteen days. The senate bill to tax telegraph, tele- phone and other classified corporations was read the second time. House bills were passed providing for three additional directors of the State hospital for the insane; for the appoint- ment of two additional justices of the peace in Baltimore city; incorporating the South Balti- more and Curtis Bay railroad company and to Pay the expenses ($1,500) of commissioners to settle the Hog island boundary dispute with Virginia, Popular Route to New York. The B. and O. express train service to New York has been established less than a year, but it is alreaay the popular route to Philadelphia, New York and New England. This is because of the excellence of ite equipment and the punctuality of its trains. s Drank Himself to Death for Fifty Cents. Henry Kepp died at his home in St. Louis Tues- day night and an inquest Wednesday resulted im s verdict of death from heart disease. Yes- terday it was learned that on the evening of his death Kepp was in a saloon and made a wager that he could drink a beer glass full of gin and seven ordinary glasses of whisky. The was half a dollar. Kepp drank the gin and immediately began on the whisky. At the fifth glass he turned sick and had to stop for s few minutes, After ten minutes he called for the other two glasses of whisky and gulped them down. He staggered home a block dis- tant and was put to bed drunk, nothing being wid bis family concerning bis wager.

THE WORLD’s FAIR, Conference of Chicago Men With the House Subcommittee. “We had a very satisfactory meeting,” said Mr. Candler of Massachusetts, chairman of the House world’s fair committee, last night im- mediately after the adjournment of the con- ference between the special world’s fair sub- committee and the delegation of representa- tive men which arrived here from Chicago yesterday afternoon to confer with the com- mittee in regard to the world’s fair bill “They have satisfied the subcommittee,” he added, “that they have a bona fide subscription, every dollar of which is as good as cash, of 25,250,000 to begin with, They have also sat- isfied us of their ability to easily raise the 10,000,000 guaranteed by Chicago. Alto- gether we are very much gratified at the show- ing made. The government was pot asked for anything and there was no suggestion that it shouid do any more than give its name to the fair, which it should do, as it is an interna- tional exposition, and that it should provid suitable governmental exhibit,thoagh even this latter was left entirely with Congress, the Chi- cago representatives stating that they had no more interest in the government being worthily represented than had the rest of the country.” DETAILS OF THE CONFERENCE. The conference, which was of an informal character, lasted about two hours, and was held in one of the parlors of the Riggs house. The time was chiefly consumed in an explana- tion of the financial situation. Mr. Lyman J. Gage, president of the First national bank of Chicago, explained this to the members of the subcommittee. He said that Chicago hada Loss bao of more than #5,000.000, which was collectible under the laws of the atate of Illinois, He read this list of subscribers and said that they were well-known men of wealth and standing. Senator Farwell was present and, in response to the interrogatories of Chairman Candler, vouched for the financial standing of various persons about whom the chairman asked. FINANCIAL, Mr. Gage then said that in about ten or twelve days the fair organization would be in- corporated and would begin work. There was no doubt that as soon as this was effected it could quickly secure subscriptions for a million or more of dollars, This would make from six to seven millions dollars, aud was all that was necessary at present. With this amount in cash there would be no diftieulty in raising by means of bonds or otherwise the $10,000,000 which Chicago had guaranteed. Attention was called to the fact that $10,000,- 000 in Chicago was equal to several millions more elsewhere, for the reason that no money wourd have to be spent to acquire a site and comparatively little for grading and preparing the ground. As to the government appropria- tion Chicago's representatives said they had nothing to say. They left that entirely with the committee and with Congress, ‘THE QUESTION OF POSTPONING THE FAIR until 1593 was mooted and it was evident that there was a strong sentiment in favor of the proposition. While they were willing to defer to Congress as to the time for holding the fair they wanted it expressly understood that Chi- cago did not ask any postponement. Chicago, it was said, could finish her puidingsand make the fair a success if held in 1392. If ten hours work a day would not suflice, then her people twenty-four hours a day. ir. peaking for Chicago, after the meeting expiiued the situation. His city, he said, could provide her buildings and do ali neces- sary work before the government could erect its buildings and before the states could take ssary measures to be represefited at the fair. For this reason it was lett with Con- grexs to say whether or not there should be some celebration ceremonies in October, 1392, and the tair proper not opened until the fol- lowing year. PORTUGAL BOYCOTTS ENGLAND. In Future She Will Buy All Goods Pos- sible From the United States. Francisco Consalues. a gentleman interested in industral enterprises in Portugal, who is now in New York with a view of procuring machin- ery from America rathe: than England, as has been customary, said yesterday: “The popular indignation caused by the brutality and arrogance of Great Britain in the rocent political complications has led to an almost universal determination on the part of the mercantile and industrial elements of Por- tugal to free themselves from the tyranny of England and seck other sources of supply. There is also a movement to form companies there to manufacture articles that were form- erly imported from England. The public opiniou is in favor of liberal treaties with for- eign countries and more especially with the United States.” ————_+e-_______ LORD ABINGDON’S DISGRACE, Accused of Knocking Down a Young Woman and Kicking Her. Solicitor Abrahams applied at the Bow street police court, London, yesterday for a warrant against Lord Abingdon (John Baird), who is held by the magistrate. Prior to the Mitchell- Goode fracas, and on the same night, while the men were at the Neli Gwynu club, Miss Gladys Leslie, sister of George Giddens, the actor, was talking to Mr. Foster, the proprictor of the elub, when Lord Abingdon struck her across the back. Miss Leslie, very much frightened, said to Foster: “I think I better go home.” Abingdon then exclaimed: “I will send you home,” and struck her violently on the mouth with his clenched fist. She fell and Abingdon hit her again behind the ear as she was falling and kicked her while she was on the ground several times in the ribs, The blow on the mouth knocked out several of ber teeth and she was carried into the committee room of the club, where she lay for several hours insensible. Abingdon was expelled from the club and the magistrate will grant the warrant if the facts are con tirmed by other wituesses, A Cuno FROM MB. T. E.

In point of fact, it may be truthfully said that it is without an equal in this respect any where in the world. Those averments are borne out by the figures given below, which are compiled from the eworn weekly statements printed in the paper on euch Monday in the year, and condensed from the sworn tabular statements showing the average daily circulation of the paper during the year 1889, published in Tug Stas on the 18th of January, 1590, Briefly stated, the points upon which the above claim is based are these: That— 1. The Star has three times the circu- Jation ot any other paper in Washing- tou! 2. The Star’s circulation in Washing- ton is double that of all the other daily Papers published im the city added to gether!! 3. The Star has a larger and fuller circulation in the city where printed, im proportion to reading and purchas- ing population, than any other news Paper in the world!!! 4. The Star bas the targest regular and permanent bome circulation of Any two-cent afternoen paper in the | United States !111 In support of these claims and to show the constantly increasing circulation of the paper, Attention is invited to the figures following: DAILY CIRCULATION IN 1885-86-87-88-88, ISS3.

Of this number, 21,142 were delivered daily by regular carriers at the homes of permanent sub- ecribers. The remaining 6,740 copies represent the sales over the office counter, at the news stands, end by newsboys. But of this latter number s very large proportion is supplied reguiarly to per manent residents of the city living in lodgings, &c. (not householders), so that ite whole circula tion may be literally said to be in the family circle. While its aggregate circulation there fore gives Tue Sran a distinctive and enviuble Posilion in modern journalism, the fullness of its home circulation, the extent to which it is relied upon by members of the household, and particularly by the pur- chasing portion of the community, are the marked characteristics of the paper, to which no other daily journal now published can furnish a parallel. This is no idle boast on the part of the paper. It is a well estabiished fact, demonstrated to the full satisfaction of the sagacious and enter- prising business men of Washington, who seck and know where to find THE LARGEST RETURNS FROM THE MONEY PalD OUT FOR ADVERTISING. This is proven by the growth of Tue Stan's advertising patronage. Nothing can more surely illustrate the esteem in which «ny article is held by the public than a constantly increasing demand for it—day by day, week by week, month by month, and year by year,—in the face of ad- verve claims and pretentiouscompetition, The figures following tell the story on this point: | NUMBSS OF NEW ADVERTISEMANTS ©RINTED Li 1885-86-87-88-30, 1886. 1887. 3,200 3,615 3847 4,669 5,478 5,395 4,522 3,380 3,170 4,517 5,313 s 1ss9. 4,556 4,528 3,194 3.564 6,033 3,529 4,453 4,006 5,588 6,589 hEES) S171 4,606 3,915 3.508 4,904 5,412 5,038 4,659 6,107 5,093 5,007 5,795 Toral 41,499 45,910 54,038 54,501 65,322 But it is not alone in numbers that the great increase of advertising is shown. The larger Space required for advertisements during the year 1889 as compared with that occupied im 1888 is even more striking. ‘The average daily space filled by advertise- ments in 1888 was 25.10 columns, or 7779 columns for the year; whereas for the year 1889 the daily average was 29.75 columns, or 9223 columns ia the aggregate, being a total gain over the pre- vious yearof1444columns! And this, it must be remembered, consisted exclusively of the in the way of t@& sales, poll lists, election returns, etc., such as cocasionally swell the business of Political organs, being included in its patron age. In conclusion, it is only necessary to say that, im proportion 0 the extent and high character (Of its circulation, Tas Sran's advertising rates take rank with the very lowest in the country, and to add, finally, that every statement hereia made can be abundantly verified THE CIR- CULATION OF THE PAPER IS SWORN TO; ITS PRESS AND CIRCULATION ROOMS ARR OPEN TO THE PUBLIC, AND ITS BOOKS MAY BE INSPECTED BY ANY ONE HAVING 43 DITEREST IN THEIR EXAMINATION. 3,064 3,506 4,355, 4,197 3,938, 3,235 Qe82 4,208 4,579 4,250 3,596
