THE INTEREST OF SILVER — tative Bland Delivers Himself of a Few Emphatio Seéntences, ME 1S SATISFIED WITH PRESENT L.AWS Represen W¥hat the Great Friend of the White Metal 148 to Say on the Sitaation —He Thinks the Chances for Favorable Legls Iation Good. Wasmsaros, D, C., (Dec, 30, —“T want no compromise. I am for free coinage of silver nt the present ratio first, last and all the time.” Representative Bland, the veteran silver leader and the chairman of the house committee on coinage, was very emphatic when he deliver himself of these state- ments this morning, “1 want no compromise at all, but if T could dono better 1 would probably accept the old act, provided that the maximum amount, $,000,000 per month, mentioned in that measure was agroed to be coined. 1 he- lieve that the present law and the legisla- tion we have had is in the interest of silver, and, of courde, I do not want it to be re- pealed.” “What do you think of the prospects of pilver legislation in this congress?” “Lam told that an attempt is to be made | 10 to repoal or suspend the present law.” | “Well, do you think this uttempt will be Bucoessfol " “No; Tdonot, Tdon't think such a prop- osition can get through the house. T think, however, that there Is a better chance for it o pass at this session than there will be during the next congress, There are a num- ber of men who have not been ra-elected, who may vote independently of their con stituents, especially as o democratic admin- dstration will soon be inaugurated which is opposed to free coinage. 1am for free coin nge and it I cannot get it at this session, I shall try to secure it atthe next, or the oarliest possible moment. “The Sherman law is the nearest we have ‘been able to get to the point as yet, It is proposed to repeal it, but nothing is sug- gested to take its place. 1f that proposition Awas to be carried, silver would at once be demonetized, and when that happens it will not be long before gold, too, is demonetized. With silver demonctized, there would be uch a fight for gold among the nations, the ighest bidder getling it, that panics would fnevitably ensue. Then the people of tms country would rise up, take hold of the gov- ernment and give those now trying to run it such a lesson in finance as they don't dream of. The eastern men who are clamoring for gold are too greedy, and ave grasping for everything in sight, letting the future take care of itself. They will find out their mis- take. It is my belief that, the world is drift- ing rapidly to paper money. It will reach hat point before long, and I do not know but that we will be quite as well off.” In a Pecullar Situation.

Jim Crowley Proved an Easy Handsome Dick, There was a fine representative crowd at the Omaha Athletic club last night to wit- ness a varied program of boxing, feats of ngth and mind reading. Prof. Sundeen, one of the most skilled artists in the necro- | manic line_in America, preluded the athletic events with an hour's entertainment of mind reading and legerdemain, Some of his feats are really marvelous and kept the club house in a continuous buzz of applause. Following the professor came Kid Logan and Herb Saunders in a scientific three-round bout. That it was a vigor- ous mill from the rise to the fall of the curtain goes without saying. The boys both i ssiderable skill, and were loudly applauded as they left the rin “Flie main event, the finish contost between Dick Moore of St. Paul and Jim Crowley of Buffalo, followed.

Rhen In “Josephine.” Omaha theatergoers have a warm corner in their hearts for Mlle. Rhea, and so the Boyd was filled last evening on the opening of her brief engagement. The play g “Josephine,” and to many,Rhea's interpreta- tion of 1ts title role is the best bit of work in her repertoire. The book is not entirely frec of faults, bur itis not too much to suy that the art of Rhea and the efforts of her company lead the mind and judgment of the audience over and past them, to dwell only on the undoubted beauties of the play and the high sentiment that suffuses its princi- pal situations. How an innate artistic sense, supplemented by a fine emotional fir can overcome difiiculties that at firs thought and to the prosaic mind would seem insuperable, is fully inspivingly evidenced in Rhea. To pa such beauties of person as Rhea's is much; to have a for dress s0 perfect and be able tocommand the means that can gratify it is also much-—but Rnea's Josephine is more than a beautiful woman ctly gowned; itis the expression of a oul, and so a fulfillment of jthe highest min- istey of art.

Rome's Relation with the French Repnblic Seelng a Closer Union with the Russian Orthodox € An Alllanee of the Churches Probable, re n, guay it the it Rose, Dec. 80.—The holy father is greatly incensed at the opposition displayed against Mgr. Satolli and a peaceful and moderate solution of the school question in the United States. The pope has already, on several occasions, given expression to his feelings on the subject with considerable warmth Speaking recently to one of his confidants he is reported to ave said: “They (S opponents) want to force tho holy s treat, but the pope will not be repulsed In the document which is now being pro pared at the vatican, the prudence and wis dom which Mgr. Satolli displayed in his propositions for a solution of the school ques tion are spoken of with much praise. “The fact that the holy see has addrossed an encyclical to the Italian people In the pope's name has caused more comment than the document itself. 1t is the first time the pope. departing from ancient customs, has | addressed himself divectly to the people. | An influential cardinal, recently speaking | on this subject, remarked: <The monarchic A in the administration of ecclosiastical affairs is passing away and is being suc eded by the popular and democratic era.

The situation in nce, created as a consequence of the Panama seandals, is watched with the closest at- tention, Considerable anxiety is felt at the vatican both in view of the aaomalous position oe cupied by the vatican in France since the pope has displayed so much friendliness to- ward the republic. and_on account of the Franco-Russian entente becoming less close or altogether endangered. On the other hand, it is pointed out by the ultra Francophil party at the vatican that the collapse of the republican pavty will facilitate the fusion of the republican and conservative parties, which will be strong | enough to assume *control of affaivs in | France, Meanwhile news from France i awaited with greatanxiot ment gives ri: sion An exchange of v most eventful consequences is moment ceclesiast Chil suspend for the rifles she Tribuna atolli's re from e 0 us minister to o Avres, (vin Galveston, Tex ~[By Mesican Cable to the New 1d--Special to Tue Ber]—A plot to burn this ity was discovered a few days ago, and today a number of policemen and firemen were arrested on the charge of being connected with the conspiracy.
