His Letter of 1800 as to Silver Does Not Cause Them the Slight- est Uneasiness. ‘The letter said to have been written by Mr. McKinley in Octcber, 1890, in which he expresses a willingness to see all the silver product of the United States circu- late as mcney, gives the men who are urg- ing *im fer President no uneasiness. Al- lowing for argument’s sake that the letter is genuine, they point out that the senti- ment quoted from it dces not differ very materially from the sentiment of the re- publican party on the silver question at that time. It was in July of that year that the Sherman act passed Congress. That act made provision for the monthly pur- chase of four and a half million ounces of stiver bullion, sgainst which circulating notes were to be issued. The act was a compromise. The free silver men exerted themselves to secure free coinage, but fatl- ed. A very popular suggestion while nego- tiations for agreement of some kind were afoot wes that of making provision ex- the utilization of the full out- the American silver mines. The Sherman act at last took shape, and for It all the republicans of both houses of Con- gress voted. Mr. Sherman and Mr. Teller voted tor it In the Senate, and Mr. McKin- ley, then chairman of ways and means, voted for It in the House. By the time the Fifty-third Congress met in special session in August, 1893, the Sher- man act Lad been condemned by the repub- lican party. Its author, Mr. Sherman, openly advocated the repeal of the pur- chasing cleuse of the act months before the President urged the step upon Con- gress. The step was taken by Congress, ali but the silver republicans voting for re- peal. Mr. McKinley was not a member of that Conere: but it is claimed by his friends tt.at, had he been, he would have stood with his party and voted for repeal. The McKinley men contend that their candidate has always stood with his party en all the vital questions. To charge him with being friendly to silver is to charge the republican party with being friendly to silver. And the charge, in that connection and to that extent, is admitted. It is agreed that the republican party {s friendly to silver. It is contended, indeed, that every piece of legislation written on the Leoks in twenty years carrying practical results for silver's benefit has been the Mr. McKin- his friends claim, is with his party to- y on the money question, and that no speech he ever made, no letter he ever Yrote, no vote he ever cast, can be quoted to embarrass him after the St. Louis con- vention has set the seal of its approval on his candidacy for President. To eccuse him of being friendly to silver along the lines of his party's record is, his friends beltev2, an indorsement of his claim of being con- sidered a bimetallist. werk of the republican party. le! JAPA) S OUR COTTON. The Orientals Want to Be the Great Manufacturers of the East. Some idea of the rapid progress Japan is making toward the object of her ambition— to become the manufacturing center of the far east—is conveyed by a report received at the State Department from United States Consul General Mclvor at Kanagowa on the present condition of the cotton- spinning industry in Japan. Using figures prepared for publication by the Japancse minister of agriculture, the report shows that all of the coarse threads formerly im- ported in great quantity from England and India are being displaced by home-produced Japanese threads. The finer qualities of English thread are still required, as the Japanese production of these grades fs still very limited. Hefore the end of the pres- ent year there will be a million spirdies in operation in Japan. The imports of raw on from the United States have in- 2.786 pounds in 15:3 to 14,- U4,S20 last year, while the imports of cot- ton from China and India increased in about the same proportion. —_____ THE ART OF WAR. STATE OF Document Telling How Deadly Are the Armies of All Nations. The military information division of the War Department has just issued a com- pllation of “Notes on Organization, Arma- ments and Military Progress,” embodying all obtainable information from abroad touching the year’s developments in the science of war. The full strength and sys- tem of organization of armies of every country are given in detail, the kind and characteristics of their arms, with particu- ler notes upon the small bore rifle and the sults so far attending {ts use; the prac- tical results of the many experiments made in Europe and in our own country with aluminum as a substitute for heaviel metals used in the equipments of soldiers, and lastly full drawings of the new Mann- licher and Bergmann automatic repeating pistols, which promise to entirely replace revolvers for mil'tary use. The Silver Tree Introduced. The Agricultural Department has added a new and very beautiful tree to the tree tribe of the United States. This is a native of southern Africa, where is is known com- monly as the “silver tree.” Secretary Mor- ton has received from an entomological agent of the department at the Cape of Good Hope a number of the seeds of the silver tree. Some attempts have been rade to acclimate it In southern Europe, but so far as known without success, and one species is reported to exist in California. It is believed that while even in Washing- ton it can only be cultivated in a green house, {t may be successfully introduced in southern California and southern Florida. -—_____ Acts Approved. The President has approved the act re- pealing section 61 of the Wilson tariff act, which exempted from taxation alcohol sed in the arts; the act amending section 3255, R. S., concerning the distilling of brandy from fruits, and the act for a wagon bridge over the Missouri river at St. Charles, Mo. The act granting a pen- ston of $75 a month to Ellen C. Ewing, widow of Brevet Maj. Gen. Thomas Ewing, became a law without the President's ap- proval. ee Beet Sugar From Abroad. United States Consul Gorman at Mata- moras, Mexico, reports to the State Depart- ment that beet sugar is shipped from France and Germany to New Orleans and sold on board the Havre and Bremen ships to merchants in Matamoras at 3% cenis rer pound, the freight from New Orleans to Matamoras and all duties on the same bringing the price up to 4% cents. It is classed as cut loaf, hard and beautifully white, cased in boxes of 120 pounds, care- fully packed and handled. Consul Gorman says: How this sugar can pay such long hauls and undersell the same article of American refineries is a question. Ameri- can refined sugar, he thinks, should control this market, as United States goods do in almost every other line excepting wines and brandies, even brown sugar. ‘stem In good quart. Some!

A collision occurred at noon today at the corner of 10th street and Pennsylvania avenue between a market wagon driven by William Soper of Burtonville, Montgomery county, Maryland, and a bicycle ridden by Miss Alice Fuger, who resides at the Wash- ington barracks. The young lady received several cuts and her clothing was torn. Bystanders carried her into a nearby drug store, where her injuries were dressed. Soper claimed that he was endeavoring io get out of the way of a cable train at the time, and had no knowledge of the ap- proach of the bicyclist.

The Millionaire Thrown From His Carriage. Austin Corbin of New York died at 9: c’clock last night from injuries received by the running away of the horses attached to his carriage. The accident occurred about 3 o'clock In the afternoon, while Mr. Cor- bin was being driven from his estate and game preserves, two miles from Newport, N. H., accompanied by his grandson, Edgell Corbin, and the latter's tutor. The driver was John Stokes. When coming out of the entrance gate the horses shied and in their fright dashed across the road and collided with a high stone wall. The carriage was overturned sutliclently to eject with great force all its occupants, with the result that one of Mr. Corbin’s legs was broken in two places and the other wrenched, while his head was terribly bruised. The driver was injured internally and died at 6 o'clock. Edgell Corbin had one leg broken, besides other injuries, while the tutor es:aped with a severe shaking up. The first information of the accident brought to the village was when local sur- gical help summoned. Word was im- mediately dispatched to New York and Boston for the best of surgical skill and skilled nurses. Mr. and Mrs. Corbin and their grandson came to their summer home from New York on Memorial day, and the other mem- pers of the family were to follow in a few lays. Austin Corbin’s Career. Austin Corbin was born about seventy years ago in Newport, N. H. His father was a farmer. He gave his son a good education and saw him graduate from Har- vard Law School at the age of twenty-two. The young lawyer practiced for a while in the cast, and then tried his luck in the west, at Davenport, Iowa. He went into the banking business there and removed to New York, where he organized the Corbin Banking Company in 1865. Soon after this he became interested in railroads. His first trip to Long Island was made with his sick child. His busi- ness instinct told him that the island, with its many natural advantages, was bound to become a summer outing place for a great majority of the millions of the big cities at whose very doors it lay. The Long Island railroads at that time consisted of a few scattered lines, badly managed, and being run at a loss by their owners. ‘Mr. Corbin began by securing the control of the prin- cipal line. With that as a foundation, he gradually built up the great system which now spans the Island in all directions, ab- sorbing one after the other of the lines as opportunity offered, and combining them Into one harmonious whole. One of his schemes was to establish,a Une of ocean steamers with the American | port located at Montauk Point. +0 GERMAN OFFICER MURDERED. Killed by Chinese Soldiers—Others Maltreated. A special dispatch from Shanghai says that the German officers) lent to drill the Chinese army have been subjected for some time to indignities and out- rages, the motive of which was to force them to resign. Recently two of the Germans were beaten by soldiers, and now an officer, named Krauss, has been mur- dered by the body guard of Lin-Kun Yah, viceroy of Nanking. In consequence of these events the entire German squadron in Chinese waters has been ordered to Nankin, and it 1s believed that Germany will withdraw the fifty offi- cers now in the Chinese army and insist upon the payment of the whole term of their contract. +e. + For Two Sets of Motormen. Members of the Central Labor Union are going to make an effort, it is stated, to in- duce President Phillips of the Metropolitan Railway Company to rearrange the sched- ule of his cars so that there will be two sets of drivers or motormen and conductors employed—each to work for ten hours. lt is claimed that some months ago President Phillips stated to a committee of the em- ployes of the company that when the re- ceipts of the company reached a stipWiated sum per dey he would do go. ——.

Little Sadie Buxton has only a few hours to live, 80 the doctors think, and the proba- bilities are that before the sun goes down today the case will be one of murder instead of assault. Dr, Snyder informed Mrs. Bux- ton this afternoon that she might expect her daughter's end in the near future. The rews was very affecting, and the mother, who is able only to sit up in bed, may not wee her little daughter before death claims her. There were no new developments in the case today in the ir.vestigation, so far as could be learned here, Wut the people of Montgomery county are as certain as ever of the guilt of Randolph, and they are not certain that Neal is inrocent, although the Baltimore detectives failed to find any evi- dence against him. Colored lawyers in this city have interest- ed themselves in the case, and will in all probability make some arrangements for the defense of the prisoners, and it may be that they will appeal to Gov. Lowndes for the protection of the prisoners until they can be given a trial. Milton M. Holland fs leader of this move- ment, and he is actively engaged in it be- cause he has been told that the men are still in danger of mob violence. The pris- oners are without the funds necessary to make a defense, and, as the lawyers here believe in their innocence, they will render them what assistance they can. A meeting of the lawyers will be held tomorrow after- noon, when money will be subscribed and counsel engaged. Should Sadie die this evening arrange- ments will probably be made for the holding of the inquest Sunday or Monday, and thén the county authorities will have ‘an oppor- tunity to offer what evidence they have col- lected against the prisoners, who are now in the Baltimore jail for safe keeping. —_—.__ A Profit-Sharing Scheme.
