THE PRESENTS LETTER CRITICISED More Conservative Plan of the New York Senator. —__+___. . TO ENCOURAGE TOLERATION Conservative democrats, anxious to pro- mote and to see effected an adjustment of their party’s differences on the money ques- tion, note with regret that phrase in the President’s letter to the Democratic Edi- torial Association of New York applying the words “private selfishness and cupid- ity’’ to those appeals to the people which he thinks the democracy ought to resist. The silver question is not specifically men- tioned, but the silver men will apply the phrase in their own way, and the result, it is feared, will be.still further to widen the existing breach in the party. The Presi- dent, in this, shows that the “good talk- ing to” he received the other Way from @ good democrat, whom he estcems, with reference to this very matter, did not, for all he listened so attentively, influence him in the slightest. Cleveland Not Influenced by Advice. The Star Friday referred to this point at some length. The President has been ad- vised by a prominent democrat, and one of his best friends, that the cause, of sound money cannot be assisted by the employ- ment of strong language, of ridicule or denunciation directed at the other side. He has been tcld in the plainest terms that it fs a sore affront to many men of great eminence and the highest character for him or for anybody to assume that the free coinage issue has had its rise in the selfish machinations of the silver mine owners. He has been reminded that the greatest lights of the democracy, both south and west—men not only without min- ing stock, but without stock of any kind— men who not only have not amassed money, but are not seeking to amass it—men who all their lives have been students of public questions and honorable participants in the settlement of many—are the advocates of free coinage. He was earnestly requested to consider this, and to help raise the dis- cussion on his side to a key which would not appear to impeach both the character and the intelligence of many respected party leaders and the masses of the peo- ple in over half of the country’s area. The campaign orators and the newspapers ad- vecating sound money would, it was sug- gested, take the'r cue froia a conservative example set by him, and he was told that such an example would prove to be in the ené a very wige and profitable investment. But, right on the top of this, and it is feared as an answer to it, has come this phrase from the President, which weighs like so much lead en the hearts of many of his friends now maneuvering for a com- mon ground of democratie action. Mr. Hill's Contrasting Position. In happy contrast with the President’s letter in this regard is thought by the conservatives to be the speech of Senator Hill before the association. He proceeded upon exactly the opposite course. He adopted the very plan that had been pre- scribed to the President. He employed al- most the same language that had been used to the President. He spoke in terms the most respectful of the free coinage men and of the. people who are supporting them. He had come to respect them, he said, by conferring with them in the Sen- ate, and he characterized them as “patriot- ic, straightforward and candid.” He de- clared in substance that the issue must be met in a spirit of good feeling, and he expressed the belief that if so met it could be ard would be satisfactorily settled. He made his own position as to the issue itself entirely clear. He is opposed to free coinage unless it can be brought about by international agreement. But that what- ever might be attempted nothing could be accomplished by the democracy except through agencies of mutual respect and forbearance, Mr. Hill expressed the most positive conviction. And here again is instituted the com- parison between Mr. Cleveland and Mr. Hill, and most especially as regards demo- cratic leadership at the present time. The conservative democrats are distrustful of the President's judgment at this juncture. They do not believe he has any aspirations for another term in the White House, but that his sole aim is to bring his public life to a consistent close. He started in as an uncompromising advocate of the gold policy. He even tried by public letter to influence the action of Congress on the subject before he was inaugurated the first time. He has held to the one course ever since. He has never done anything for silver. He has always insisted that to en- large the coinage of the white metal was bad finance. He is going out of oifice hold- ing to that opinion. His Plan Different. But Mr. Hill ts far differently situated. He is practically just beginning his na- tional life. He wants to be President, but whether he realizes that ambition or not he is certain to remain an active and in- fluential quantity in democratic councils for years to come. He is a young man. Two years remain of his present term in the Senate, and if de- feated for the democratic nomination for the next pres'dency he will make a can- vas3 to succeed himself as Senator. He is thought to have a long head in politics and a pretty stout heart. He is as earnestly in favor of sound money as is Mr. Cleveland, but he is not defending any executive pol- icy or extreme line of aggressive deliver- ances. He has had opportunity to discover how much in carnest the free coinage men in the democratic party are, and how well led. He confesses that they are honest and candid men, and he recognizes the neces- sity of approaching them in a spirit of fair compromise. He does not believe that they are actuated by sordid or improper motives. He thinks they err in judgment. But he wants them to remain in the democratic party, and he wants to ‘cg-operate with them toward holding on to executive na- tional control. Looking to Mr. Hill. It is to Mr. Hill, therefore, and not to the President, that some of the conserva- tive democrats are already talking of turn- ing in the present dilemma. They are afraid of the President. He strikes them as being an extremist on the money ques- tion. They concede his strength of pur- pcse, the consistency of his course, and all that, but the time has come, they think, when the peacemaker should take the field. Nobody can hope to have his own way the whole way through. And most especially is this true, they say, In a case where nearly the whole following is against the leader. Nine-tenths of the democratic party are committed against the policy which the President lays down. But the President insists on his policy, and that those who are opposing him are not only unwise, but controlled by selfish considera- tions. The conservatives assert that bet- ter-tempered counsels must prevail. The issue is too great to be risked in the Prest- dent’s way. A fair allowance must be made for differences of opinion, and a spirit of brotherhood and toleration must be encouraged. ———————-2—____ Judge Tuley of Chicago released a pris- oner from the Chicago jail on the ground that it was unhealthy and unfit for occu- pation.

A preparation which enriches and purifies the blood and assists nature in repairing wasted tissue must have a wide range of usefulness. Such a preparation is Scott’s Emulsion of Cod- liver Oil with Hypophos- hites of Lime and Soda. Che uses of Scott’s Emul- sion are not confined to wasting diseases, like con- sumption, _scrofula_ or anemia. They embrace nearly ail those minor ail- ments associated with Doss of flesh.

Since the publication of the facts in con- nectior with the alleged swindle perpe- trated by the Eugene Boyens & Company concern, in the Loan and Trust Company’s building, Inspector Hollinberger has re- ceived word from a large number of per- sons who figured in the cigar game, an ac- count of the operation of which was print- ed in Saturday’s Star. He thinks that the cheap cigars, for which the dealers paid so dear, are in many of the stores in this city. Witnesses in the case of Mr. Robert- son, who lost $2,000 in the firm, were before the grand jury today, and when an indict- ment is returned the police will renew their efforts to have Miss Ida Lewis and the two male tnembers of the firm apprehended. When Miss Lewis was under arrest in New York last week, it is said, she admit- ted that the names by which they were known here were fictitious. She is about twenty-five years old, and Inspector Hollin- berger thinks she had the brains of the firm and did most of the business. Clever Scheme. The scheme, the inspector says, was one of the best he has ever heard of, and while the firm did an immense business in the cigar certificates, and made big profits, he has some doubt whether they actually vio- lated the law. This, however, has nothing to do with the $2,000 transaction. Under the plan of disposing of the cigar certificates on John C. Kane & Company of Boston, as printed in Saturday's Star, the cigars were sold at $30 per thousand, and the Boyens firm willingly accepted $20 of this amount in real estate, bonds, titles cr merchandise, anc stipulated that $10 cach had to be paid for packing, hauling and revenue. Persons who dealt largely in these cer- tificates now claim that the cigars are worth $9 a thousand, and this would give the Boyens firm 4 profit of $1 cash on every ‘thousand, in addition to the $20 worth of merchandise or stock. In several deals, it is said, the Boyens company accepted real estate in part pay- ment for the certificates, and for several weeks there was a boom in the certificates, and the three members of the firm were scarcely able to attend to the business. Concerning the identity of the three mem- bers of the firm, the police know little or nothing, but they are satisfied that they do not belong here. It is thought they may attempt a similar business in some other city, in event of which they may be captured. —ae ‘Transfers of Real Estate. Deeds in fee have been filed as fol- lcws: George L. D.
