COALITION IN KANSAS Deal by Peoples’ Party and Demo- cratic Leaders. NEW INFLUENCES IN OHIO POLITICS. England Will Send More Ships to American Waters. CHILIAN ENVOYS ARE COMING PLANNING A COALITION. Democrats and New Party Leaders in Kan- eae Discuss Joint Electoral Tickets. Spectal Dispatch to The Evening Star. Tovexa, Kax. June 26.—During the past jas been several secret demo- cratic cnucuses in Kansas, at which the most minent members of that party were pres- mt. Little is known of the transactions at these meetings, as the gentlemen present re- fuse to talk, but Tie Stan's correspondent has & | learned that instead of “arranging for the fali campaign,” as given out, the principal topic discussed was the advisability of forming a combination with the new people's party next year on an electoral ticket. If the plat ix carried out the democrats are to have five and the peoplo's party four electors and both con- ventions will indorse the nine. Propositions wore submitted to the people's party managers Yosterday and they are the deal, but « large Alliance refuse to coalesce with either of the old parties. Then, in view of the resolutions adopted by the national people's party com- mittee at St. Louis ten days ago declaring against fusion with any party or faction, the leaders of the new movement in Kansas’ are loth to enter into the democratic scheme. Of courne such ® combination would unquestion- ably take Kansas out of the republican column next year, ‘THE MASSES OPPORE THE DEAL. While this feeling prevails among the load- ers, it is not popular among the rank and file. Out in the rural districts it is hurd to teli which iance the worst, a republican or ‘The democratic party having ul- minority party in Kansas affords he result of trailing their col- ors in the dust simply for office.

If the democratic man- agers should ugree to such a coslition there are hundreds and probably thousands of dem- oerats who would vote the republican ticket. estos ig NEW INFLUENCES AT WORK. ‘The Australian Ballot System and the Farm- ‘ere’ Alliance in Ohio, Special Dispatch to The Evening Star. Cotvmnoes, Ouro, June 26.—Two new ele- ments will enter into the Ohio campaign this year, which will keep the politicians guessing as to their effect. These are the Australian ballot law and the Farmers’ Alliance. For the fret time Ohio will vote under the new Austral- ian ballot law this fall. A» adopted in this state the pure Australian system is prescribed. It will by no means be impossible for one who cannot read, however, to vote the ticket of his choice, for the reason that the law permits parties to adopt emblems which will ap- pear atthe head of their respective tickets, thus enabling those voters who cannot read to select a ticket by recognizing the party em- blem. It will be risky business, however, for such voters to undertake to “weratch” # ticket. The only sure way open to them is to vote straight. VOTERS AFRAID OF THE SYSTEM. There is no use trying to disguise the fact, however, that the new system of balloting has # terror for a great many voters, who do not clearly understand it and imagine it is a great deal more complicated than it is. Tux Sran correspondent has talked with chairmen of committees of both parties and learned from them that they fear that many will remain away from the polls for fear of betraying their ignorance of the provisions of the new law. ey fear this will operate so extensively as to considerably reduce the total vote in the state. Of course this defection will include the illiterate and less intelligent element of the voting population and neither party is ready to admit that it will lose on this account any more than the other. AS YOR THE FARMERS’ ALLIANCE. As for the Farmers’ Alliance, the part it wil take in the campaign is yet undetermined. In all the counties the farmers are bestirring themselves and in many of them farmers’ tickets are already in the field. They will un- doubtedly cut quite a figure in the election of members of the legislature, and while the num- ber of farmers elected may not be large there will be few members electeci who do not pledge themselves to stand by¢he main features of the resolutions adopted in the state farmers’ meeting here two months ago. As to a state ticket the farmers seem orfectty satisfied with their treatment from the republicans in giving them the nomination for lieutenant governor in the person of Col. A. L. Harris of Preble county, @ practical farmer. Should the demo- erate concede themas much all thonght of on any state officers will no doubt be abau . REPUBLICANS WAVE NO WALK OVER. In an interview Secretary of State Dan. J. Ryan urges the republicans to activity in the coming campaign, saying that notwithstanding the declarations of some of the enthusiastic convention orators the party has ro walk over this year. His idea is that while the nomination of a b= nye) fectly proper aud action of the party, Pr ncevente the party trom taking advantage of the local dissensions of the demo- erate, as they coula do were the candidate for governor not » national character. “As it ta,” says Secret LS “we will not have simply Campbell or tw fight, but the solidly arrayed onti-high tariff ‘party, ho will forget in their zeal the local dessensions and Join bands on the tariff question.” repul organization ts in condition in this state, In fant, the not been allowed to cease since election of rnor Was per- excellent work has a i i E z f i if ; iy : i z i i { CHILIAN ENVOYS COMING.

Prospective Gold Shipments Cause General ‘Weakness in Stocks. New Youn, June 26.—Last night's engage- ment of gold was supplemented this morning by a further one, and the effect of these trans- actions was seen in the early trading this morn- ing by creating a weaker tone and causing fractional concessions in values all along the line. The opening prices were generally from ¥% to per cent ‘lower than wt evening's figures, and these losses under the pressare to sell’ wore supplemented by equal declines in the early trading. while North ern Pacitic preferred ‘was specially weak. losing 1 per cent from last night at 6534. The pres- sure to sell made more animation than usual of late, but the usual dullness followed the with- | trading was marked by no‘ feature other than slight recoveries among active shares. Among ‘the latter St. Paul, Lonisville. Northern Pacific preferred, Atchison, Union Pacific and sugar were most prominent. At11 o'clock the mar- ket was very dull and steady, generally at slight fractions below the opening prices. Money of call is easy at 34g and per cent. Prime mercantile paper, 54 and 7.

The gold shipments mounted up rapidly and now reach over 4,000,000 for the week, most of which go out tomorrow, and the effect upon the stock murket after 11 o'clock was most weakening. the firmer tone which had begun to mark dealings disappearing im- mediately and great worknoes appear. in’ spots.

Loxpox, June 26.—The court-martial which has been sitting at Chatham trying the marines who were recently guilty of insubordination has sentenced the three leaders to seven weeks’ hard labor and a number of others to two weeks’ hard labor. The latest from Amsterdam is to the effect that Queen Emme and the kaiser will talk over the prospect of Holland Joining the new zoll- | Yerein with Germany, the Austrian empire, | Italy and Switzerland. The chief objection to such a scheme is expected tocome from the great firms that control the trade of Java and the other Dateh colonies. ‘The tribunal of the Seine has sentenced a German named Schneider to five years’ im- risonment for taking: L Fasmenees of French fortifications.

Members of the Chilian congressional party, in letters written to friends in Lisbon, accuse ‘the volice who serve under Balmaceda of throw- ing imitation bombs at his ministers in order to afford a pretext forthe arrest of congres- sional negotiations. A dispatch from Vienna says that there is but little prospect of the speedy establishment of gold currency in Austria-Hungary. Dr. Stein- bach, the new Austrian finance minister. is op- posed to any course that would tend to weaken or impair the confidence of trade. A Copenhagen dispatch says that the Danish government is entirely unfavorable to the scheme to depopulate Iceland and will not per- mit any movement beyond ordinary emi- tion. ‘The government is convinced that if ¢ population should go on it would be imposmble to replace it and Iceland would be- come, like Greenland, a mere trading post in the far north.
