WATTING ON AMERICA AND FRANCE An Agreement ~Has Been Made With Their Representatives. UNDER ACT OF 1844 LONDON, September 16.—At the semi-an- nual nieeting of the Bank of England to- day the governor, George Sandeman, said: “You are probably aware of the proposals laid before the government in the summer by the United States and France, whereby this country might increase its use of silver, as a contribution to an international agreement, which, while not affecting our goid standard, might enable the mints of France and America to resume free coin- age. Among the proposals was one asking the bank to hold the amount of silver per- missible under the act of 1814 as against its notes.” . Bank Prepared to Act. The governor then read a letter, dated July 29, addressed to the chancellor of the exchequer, Sir Michael Hicks-Beach. It was as foflows: = “Referring to our conversation, we beg to say the bank is prepared to carry out what is laid down as permissible in the bank charter, namely, to hold. one-fifth of the bullion held against its note issue in silver, provided always that the French mint is again open to the free coinage of silver and that the prices at which silver is procurable and salable are satisfactory.” Replying to the questions, the governor said the bank had no negotiations with the United States monetary commissioners, adding: “We have bought no silver. All we have done is to agree, under certain circum- stances, to carry out what is permissible under the act of 1844." Germans Do Not Like the Idea. BERLIN, September 16.--The National Zeitung, referring to the intimation in the ‘Times of September 11 that the Bank of England was prepared to hold in silver ene-fifth of the bullion held against its note issue, says: “The unfavorable reception the announcement has met with from all the organs of British trade leaves no room for doubt as to the opinion of the British com- mercial bodies and as to the ultimate fate of the latest American attempt to secure for the silver mine owners, with the aid of Europe, a rise in silver as a reward for their support of the McKinley tariff policy, and to keep the silverites in good humor.” The letter excited surprisingly little com- ment in the city, and did not affect silver stocks. Great satisfaction, however, is expressed at the headquarters of the Bi- metallic League. The governor of the Bank of England de- cEined to cuss the matter, saying the let- ter'spoke for itself. The secretary of the Bank of England, Mr. George F. Glennie, when asked if the action of the Bank of England depended upon the reopening of the Indian mints, re- plied: “hat is a political question, and does mot concern us.” Bankers Surprised and Displeased. ‘The bankers of the city are surprised ana displeased. Manager Ress of Glyn, Miils, Currie & Co., ardent supporters of the Gold Stand- ard Defense Association, voiced the opinion ef the bankers. We said: “The letter, with such quatifications, does not pledge the bank to anything, and its only effect will be to encourage the bimeiatlists’ agitation. If the plan was carried out it might raise the price of silver temporarily, which would be followed by a reopening of the Ameri- can mices, over-production and another fall in the price of silver. “I do not comprehend why the bank wishes to establish silver reserves when there is plenty of gold obtainable.” The officials of the foreign office declined to comment on the letter, but a high offi- cial of the Treasury Department is quoted in an interview as decrying the work of the United States monetary commission. * Senator Welcott Encourrged. First Assistant Postmaster General Heath has received a letter from Senator Wolcott, in which the senator, who is at the head of the internation: monetary commission, speaks very encourugingly of the outlook for securing an international understanding in behalf of silver. He re- fers to the decline in silver, which, he says, is being used everywhere in opposition to the efforts of the commissicr, but ¢x- presses the opinion that, notwithstanding this adverse influence, an international agreement will be secured. Senator Wol- cott states that he will be in London by the Ist of October, and that he will reach Washington before the convening of Con- gress in December. 32.00 If You Want the Most $2.00 for your money, take the Pennsylvania railroad to Atlantic City next Saturday and Sunday and avoid all transfers.

INDEPENDENCE, Kans., September 16. —The Delaware Indians, whose reservation is in the territory south of here, are ex- periencing “a 1eligicus revival such as has never .been equaled before. Large union camp meetings are being held and Indians from other tribes come for miles to par- ticipate. Delegations are present from the Cherokees, Osages, Otoes and Creeks, and it is estimated that fully 5,000 Indians are present. The Indians from the other reservations ccme in large troops and are met by dele- gations from the Delawares. After the head men of the tribes have smoked the ‘pipe of peace’ together around their camp- fires the visiting Incians present the Dela- wares with several fine ponies to show their appreciation of their kindness and hospitality. The meetings are being con- ducted by_missionaries who are assisted in the work by many of the Indians. One old brave who has the snow of many winters upon his head Claims to be a di- vine healer end is attracting a great deal of attention cn account of his wonderful cures which are effected by simply touch- ing the afflicted person. All day long his wigwam is besieged by persons eager to be cured and wherever he goes his bent and withered form is the center of attraction. The meetings have been in progress a little less than two weeks, and already over 200 are reported to have been converted. When the Indians profess religion they are required to give up many of their na- tive custors. Among those converted is Chief Little John, who has announced that he is going to secure divorces from four of his five wives. nd Comfort is a Consideration.

CONSULS Reports to the State Department From Dif- ferent Places, Africans Employed on the Panama Cahal Will Be Taken Back to Their Native Land. Consul General Vifquain at Panama re- ports to the State Department that the Africans who have been working on the Panama canal have been notified by the canal company that they will be taken to their native country in a vessel which left London August 28, and which will probably arrive at Colon some time this month. Some of the laborers are sick in the hos- pital. Some are still working on the canal at Las Cascades, while others are scattered all along the Hine. The canal cempany Says it will assume no responsibility for the care of those who miss the steamer from London. Notices have been posted at all the principal points on the line and have been also published in the Daily Star and Herald of Panama. The United States consul at Managua re- ports to the State Department that the Nicaraguan mail service, which had been interrupted by quarantine measures, is again in operation. The forty days’ quar- antine period expired July 31. In accordance with his duties as United States consul at Managua, Mr. Paul Wie- sike has assumed charge of the estate of Joseph Husmaier, an American citizen, who was murdered in Matagalpa, in October, 1804. Mr. J. B. Connelly has been nomi- | nated as curator of the estate. The State Department made inquiry Au- gust 13 of United States Consul Lathrop at Bristol, England, respecting the where- abouts of John H. Sheers, whose family live in Brooklyn, N. Y. That official has replied that Mr. Sheers is alive and well and is residing in Bristol. The United States consul general at Sin- fapore reports to the State Department that W. C. Hammond, an American citi- zen, who is understood to have a mother living in Concord, N. H., arrived there on the American ship Benjamin Sewall May 5, and on the 10th entered the general hos- pital as a patient in the last stages of con- sumption. He lingered until the 6th of July following, when he died. His effects amounted to but little. The State Department is informed that the bark Nonantum of Seattle,, Wash., Wm. Newhall, master, loaded with coal for Panama, was wrecked on Easter Island in May last. The crew of fifteen men took to the boats and landed safely on the island. Eight of the crew were taken to Valparaiso by the schooner Maria Louisa, and were assisted by the United States consul there. The others remained on Easter Island and were well caree for. ‘The State Department has received notice of the death of Charles Schindler, a United States pensioner of the Mexican war, at Paris, France. He leaves a son and three daughters, all living in the United States. The Department of State has instituted inquiries concerning the whereabouts of Dr. John R. Judkins of Indiana, who was sup- posed to be in Cuba. The acting consul general at Havana reports that nothing has been heard of the person named at Santiago de Cuba, Matanzas, Cienfuegos and Sagua, according to the consuls at the places named. United States Consul Haywood at Hono- lulu has advised the State Department of the death in that city of Alvin R. Haw- kins of Gatesville, Texas, a son of Rev. S. B. Hawkins of that city. Mr. Hawkins had gone to Honolulu to practice law. United States Consul Hill at Santos, Bra- zil, reports to the Secretary of State 2 matter of interest to shipowners in the United States who send vessels to that pert, arising out of the case of the Amer- ican bark Virginia of Machias, Me., Petti- grew, master, which recently cleared. In thet case the charter party contained a clause written in providing that the ves- sel should be free of wharfage. The au- thorities at Santos held that this did not exempt the vessel from the payment of the dues of the dock company. Capt. Pet- tigrew paid the bills of that corporation, amounting to rearly $3,000. To avoid sucn things in the future it has been suggesied that ir future charters of the character de- scribed the clause be written thus, “free of wharfage and dock dues.” As an item of interest to the exporters of crugs and medicines, United States Consul O'Hara, at San Juan del Norte, Nicaragua, writes to the State Depart- ment as follows: : “Owing to the moist atmosphere, pills, tablets aud many other articles in the drug line should be put up in bottles, with either cork or rubber stopper. A merchant fn San Juan del Norte beught goods of this character from a house in the United States, but was forced to discontinue on account of the lack of care in packing them. No house in the world, says this merchant, puts up better goods that the United States merchants, or puts them up In more attractive style, but hardwood stoppers were adopted by the United States dealers, and their goods were ren- dered temporarily worthless in the Nic- araguan climate.

The 109th annual term of Georgetown University, the oldest institution of learn- ing in the south, has begun. The opening exercises were held yesterday forenoon in the Dahlgren Memorial chapel, with a solemn high mass, at which an appropriate sermon was delivered by Rey. Father Francis X. Mulvaney, 8. formerly one of the professors of the institution, but now assistant pastor of Trinity Catholic Church. Immediately after the mass, the students assembled in the Gaston Memorial hall, where the marks of the last year were read, the students assigned to the different classes for the term, and all given an opportunity of becoming accuainted with each other and with their future, teachers. i This morning the regular exercises of the varsity were in progress, and the course of real hard study begun. The post-grad- uate course of the institution, which has attained such a high degree under the ad- ministration of the present rector, Rev. J. Havens Richards, S. J., will not begin until the morning of October 1, at 10 o'clock. In a talk with Father Richards this morn- ing, he stated to the Star man that the at- tendance this year already showed a gratifying increase. “All of the students have not as yet ar- rived,” said he, “though the boys will con- tinue coming in all of this week. There is an excellent increase from far away points. New Orleans shows up extremdly well this year, and quite a number of scholars are coming from San Francisco. The number of students from the far west is much larger than ever before. “The post-graduate course strengthened by the arrival of Rev. wi- Ham Doherty, 8. J., of Canada, whose ser- vices we were fortunate in securing. He has done considerable good in the United States, and he will give special instruc- tions in metaphysics and philosophy, the course for which is open to the third and second year students of the class. The course in biology will open later than the regular post-graduate course. .The opening will be October 8, under the lead of Dr. C. W. Styles, who will introduce new lines of work. Prof. Sylvester J. ‘Judd, in charge of the biological laboratory, will give a number of lectures this season in connection with his laboratory work.” Speaking of the matter of athletics, the rector stated most positively that outside {cot ball would not be sanctioned this year, and the same restrictions against the game which were imposed by the faculty last year will be enforced. — A Low Rate via a high-grade road. $1 to Baltimore and. return next Sunday via Pennsylvania R.

HORE BLOODSHED IS EXPECTED One Man HasAlready Fled Through - Fear of Vengeance. INQUEST BEING HELD TODAY CINCINNATI, Ohio, September 16.—A Versailles, Ind., special to the Times-Star says the people in Versailles are still dazed more than ever by the horror of the bloody work of Tuesday night. No other topic is discussed, except speculation as to the probability of action being taken to arrest and punish the participants in the mob. All agree that the plan was deliberately laid. It is said by witnesses that from the time the two signal rockets were sent up on the outskirts of the town until the work of the mob was completed and the men Were going home was not more than fifteen minutes. It is also said that the active participants in the lynching did not ex- ceed fifteen or twenty, though the men who were present as guards and helpers numbered about 250. Organized by Osgood Men. It is generally conceded the organizers were Osgood men, though so far no one can be found who recognized any of them. The apprehensicn that further work is intended by the organization still con- tinues, and the luckless man who gets into the Versailles jail will have reason to dread the consequences. This feeling may have a tendency to cause some of the suspected men to leave the country Peter Hostetter, who gave the information to the sheriff about the burglary at Correct, has taken alarm” at threats by friends of the victims and has disappeared. Will Be an Awful Reckoning. An Osgood, Ind., special to the Times- Star says: Thre will be an awful reckoning for the slaughter of the five men in the Versailles jail. All the victims have many relatives and friends, who have determined that somebody must suffer for the wholesale lynching. Everybody here feels that more blood will be sned. There is a feeling that the mob acted Jhastily a to Levi and Jenkins. The onfy testimony against them was Hostetter’s statement that they were involved in the Wooley robbery. The inquest was renewed today. Many witnesses were called, but not one could identify any one connected with the mob. Circuit Judge New ys that every possi- ble effort will be made by the authorities to punish the mob participants. ee 2.00 is the Extremely Low rate to Philadelphia via Pennsylvania railroad next Sunday.

SEDALIA, Mo., September 16.—Wm. J. Bryan spoke to nearly 25,000 people at the fair grounds last night, twelve excursion trains bringing visiters from surrounding towns. In an interview he made these pertinent remark: “Those who have suggested the burning of property or the destruction of life as a means of settling labor disputes do not un- derstand the genius of our institutions. The American people are a law-abiding reople. When laws are bad they will! change the laws. Lincoln was right when he said that no one could better be in- trusted with the enforcement of the law than those who toil. The toilers will re- sfect the rights of property, and the people ds a whole will insist that the corpora- tions shall also respect the right of life and liberty. “The injunction has been called in to aid the suppression of strikes, and since the strike 1s at present the only weapon of employes the injunction becomes the most useful means by which the employers can force their own terms on employes. Legisla- tion, and legislation alone, can remedy this evil.
