Will Continue to Advocate Free Coinage Despite the Industrial Awak- ening. ‘WASHINGTON, D. C., Nov. 8.—Direc- tors of the American Bimetallic Union, who constitute the bulk of the silver lead- es, have decided to main- tain headquartersin this city and useitas the agency through which literature is to be spread broadcast over the land. The branch cftice at Chicago wili be consoli- dated with the Washingion office, but the Sea Francisco-branch isto be continued. A. J. Warner, president of the union, at the request of the directors bas issved the following address setting forth the pur- poses of the silver men: To the silyer leagues and bimetallic unions of the United States: Siiver has lost in this election, but the battle for the overthrow of the gold stends=rd has not ended.

Final Bulletin From Kentucky’s Kepub- tican Campaign Committes, LOUISVILLE, Ky., Nov. 8—The Re- publican State Campaign Committee will close up sbop to-morrow. Chairman Rob- erts issued nis final bulletin this aiter- It is as follows: - Practically complete official returns give McKinley 444 plurality in Kentucky, nnoffi- cial advices indicating that the four missing counties will increase rather than decrease these figures. The Republicans elect four members of Congress and a Judge of the high- est court of the State for au eight-year term, and by the filling of vacancies have secured a majority of two in the General Assembly on joint ballot, which insures the election of a Republican successor to Senator Blackburn, The total vote of the State will approach 425,000, an increase of 70,000 over last year’s vote and 25,000 more than the hizhest esti- mates before the eleciion. The Republican vote increased about 4000 over Bradley's vote & year ago, which was 17,000 higher than ever before cast in a Presidential election. The Democratic vote was 25,000 higher. These figures will give some idea of the intensily of the political struggle through which Ken- tucky has just passed. SAMUEL J. ROBERTS, Chairman. Mr. Roberts has sent congratulatory tel- ‘erams to Major McKinley and Mark anna giving tue factsas to the final re- sult. When asked about the probability of the Democrats getting one electoral vote Mr. Roberts stated that this could ot be ascertained until the official count was made by the State canvassing board. g Gp_vemox Bradley, as a member of the Statecanvassing board, has sent the fol- lowing telegram to National Committee- man Scott of New Yor FRANKFORT, K¥., No certainly gone for McKinley and .will justas certainly be counted. W. O. BRADLEY. Up to 10 o’clock to-night the Courier- Journal had no new figures on the result of the election in Kentuc! and McKifl- ley’s plurality stands at 488, with six counties to be heard from enly. Whether or not the discrepancy between the votes for different electors on the same ticket bas resulted in the choice of one Bryan elector and twelve McKinley electors can- not be positively known until the State canvassing board foots up the vote for each elector. The Democratic leaders still claim the State, but none of them were in town to-day. . 6.—Kentucky has e e STATUS OF THE SENATE. Silver Republicans May Yield to the Will of Their Party. PROVIDENCE, R. L, Nov. 8.—In an interview last evening with a Journal re- perier Senator Nelson W. Aldrich gave it as his opinion thaet the standing of the two leading parties in the next Senate would be very close. It is expected that President-elect McKiniey will call a spe- cial session of Congress to consider the revenue question soon after inauguration. The Senator figures that at the present time only two States are doubtful—North Carolina and South Dakota. In the former the Legislature is fusion, Repnbiican and Populist, and ir the latter the Populists claim a majority. As matters stand, the financial forces are evenly divided in the Senate—forty-four gold and the same number of silver. These figures are likely to change, how- ever, for it is possible that some silver Re- publicans may accept the verdict of the elections and accede to the St. Louis plat- form. Until the exact status of the Sen- ate is decided, Senator Aldrich will not state his opinion concerning the future course the party is likely to take in the matter cf revenue legisiation. e NO MORE AGITATION, WANIS Advice of a Free Silver Journal to Bry- an and His Lieutenants. COLUMBUS, Onro, Nov. 8.—The Press of this city, which was one of the most enthusiastic supporters of free silver in the late campaign, deprecates the deter- mination of the Western free silver men, with Mr. Bryan at their head, to keep up the agitution of the silver question. It says: No National election will take place for two years. In 1898 a new Congress must be elected. At that time we shall see whether the election of McKinley has brought permanent pros- perity. Ifit has, then nothing can overthrow the Republican party at that time. If, on the other hand, times are still hard and gouting worse, that will demonstrate that his election was a mistake, and the people will elect a Congress opposed to Mr. McKinley's adminis- tration. But for the present no aggressive op- position should be organized wnich could in any way tend to retard the revival of business activity. e gl oy FOR SBECRETARY OF WAR. General Miles Says That Colonel ¥ped Graut Ie the Man. P INDIANAPOLIE, ixp., Nov. 8—Dr T. J. Charlton of Plaintieid, who recen*ly re- turned irom a visit to General Miles, 1s authority for the statement that Colonel Fred Grant of New York is to be Secre- tary of War in McKinley’s Cabinet. Dr. Charlton says it is well understood by General Miles and the members of his staff that Grant is to be at the head of the War Department. % DEMOCRA1S CLAL WYOMING, Figure Small Electoral, State and Con- gressional Majorities. CHEYENNE, Wryo., Nov. 8.—At 10 o'clock to-night the Democratic State Committee received returns from a third of the precincts in Big Horn County. The committee declines to give the figures re- ceived, but states that they show decided majorities, and that they will carry the county by several hundred majority, and that the Democrats will carry the entire electoral, State and Congressional tickets by majorities ranging from 200 to 600. —_— Another Cabinet Rumor, PHILADELPHIA, Pa., Nov. 8.—A dis- patch from Washington last evening stated that there was a report in Republi- can circles at the Capitol to the effect that Congressman Alfred C. Harmer of this city would be tendered a portiolio in the McKinley Cabinet. Mr. Harmer said that it was the first that he had heard of it, al- though for some time past, he said, it was intimated to him that his very close friends were bringing his name forward in connection with a Cabinet position. T For Either Buckner or Carlisle. LOUISVILLE, Ky., Nov. 8—W. H. Stiglitz, one of the Republican members of the Legislature from Louisville, says that in the event of an extra session he would vote for either Simon Bolivar Buckner or John G. Carlisle. It is under- stood that three other Republican mem- bers of the Legislature from Louisville will vote with Mr. Stiglitz. Enries ey Milley Is “Mentioned.” COLUMBUS, Onio, Nov. 8.—~W. W. Mil- 11, now sccretary of the Ohio Board of Agricuiture, is mentioned for Secretary of Agriculture in McKinley’s Cabinet. He was a captain 1n McKinley’s regiment in the army and has been a close friend ever since. When he was Governor, McKinley made Captain Miller one of the managers of the State Prison. —_— SCHEME FOKE A GREAT CANAL, Laboring Men Favor Building a Trarwes- continental Waterway. NEW YORK, N. Y., Nov. 8.—The Cen- tral Labor Union indorsed a scheme to- day to bulld a canal from New Jersey to California, parallel to the transconti- nental railroads. The new canal is to be built by the Government. J. R. Enckeof Trenton, N. J., the pro- moter of the scheme, will lay it before the general assembly of the Knights of Labor which meetsin Rochester on Tuesday, and the annual convention of the American Federation of Lafor, which meets in Cin- cinnati on December 16. Encke says he is sure that organized labor all over the country will indorse the scheme. The proposed canalis to be 300 to 350 feet wide and from 40 to 50 feet deep. The walls are to be 35 feet thick. —_—— Zhrown Under Car Wheels, CHICAGO, IrL., Nov. 8.—When alight- ing from a Wabash-avenue cable-train at Vap Buren street to-night Mys. Margaret Mueller of 464 West Congress street came in contact with one of the supports of the elevated structure and was thrown back under the car wheels and killed. ok It Is Not a Dream After All DRUNKEN CAPTA WRECKS H 04T Himself and Six Seamen Drowned in Lake Michigan. Story of the Sole Survivor, Who | Has Thirteen Times Been Shipwrecked. THE VESSEL IN SIGHT OF PORT But the Crazy Skipper Locks Up the Torches to Prevent Signals for Assistance. MUSKEGON, Micn.,, Nov. 8.—About, 10:30 o'clock this morning the beach pay trolman on the south shore of the harbor reported wreckage coming ashore. This | report brought to the mind of Captain Wood the question of the safety of the big three-masted schooner which arrivea off the point about 4 o'clock yesterday afternoon flying a tug flag as she came into sight, and word was sent for the Car- rie Ryerson, which came down, but did not venture out in the face of the big sea which was running. The schooner was | apparently all right during the evening, and at 9 o'clock the lookout man saw her lights. After that they disabpeared and{ nothing more was seen of them. It was thought that she had slipped her cables and run out to get room, but the sequel shows she bad not. In the storm, the awful cold and darkness seven lives had been lost. | The lookout man at the life-saving sta- tion thought he saw something move on a dark object which bobbed with the swell of the sea about half a mile off the har- bor. This was at the break of day, and Captain Wood was nolifiea and speedily found out that it was the wreck of a ves- sel. He went out with his crew and found a sailor elinging 10 an improvised raft. The man was hardly able 1o wave the life- preservers as they came up. He was taken to the station, and when prorounced out of danger was sent to bed. s This evening he was able to teli that his name was Frank Delach; that they left Turington Friday, and almost immedi- ately the captain began drinking, having for his companions a sailor named Fred and the mate. Soon the three became drunk and they continued that way until the end. The boat leaked badly ail the way, and the hands at the pumps soon became worked out. The sea increased, and the men begged tbe captain to beach the boat, but he refused. When they came in sight of Muskegon he did not know where he was, and anchored a mile and a half our, sgainst the orotests of Delach, who wanted him to either enter the harbor or go ashore. The drunken captain, how- ever, refused, and would not allow any signals to be given to bring help, locking up the torches. Shortly after the boat be- gan breaking up, and the men sought safety in the riggine. One by one the n:asts fell, one killing the negro cook. The other six clung to the wreckage and were washed away one by one, Delach aud | the mate being the last Lo go, just at day- break this morning. Two bodies, those of the cook and a Swedish sailor, have been rgauud and taken cha of byiCorenor Vagderlinde, who wiid hold an injudst to-morrew, The boat had on 600 tons of salt. The ‘Waukesha was an old boat, having been built at Manitowoe, Wis., in 1862. She registered 310 tons, was 136 feet long and 26 feet beam. This was Dezlach’s first trip on the boat and he was unable to give the names of any of the crew. He says she was sailed by her owner. This is the thirteenth time Delach has been wrecked. Nothing was found on the bodies by which they could be identified. The beach is strewn with wreckage for two miles south of the piers and the shores have been thronged by thousands to-day, eagerly picking up souvenirs. Everything possible bas been done to ob- tain the names of the lost men, but noth- ing has been learned as yet. FUNERAL OF MRS. VANDERBILT. Her Body Will Be Borne fo the Tomb on Tuesday— Cornelius Vanderbilt Improving. . NEW YORK, N. Y., Nov. 8.—The funeral of the late Mrs. William H. Vanderbilt is to tzke plece Tuesday morning, arrange- ments having been perfected to-day after consulting with Cornelius Vanderbilt and other members of the family. The pall- bearers will be D. O. Mills, 8. F. Barger, Channcey M. Depew, George Crocker, J. A. Burden and John Sloane. Services will be held in St. Bartholomew’s Church of which Mrs. Vanderbilt was 8 member, at 10 a. M., conducted by the rector, Rev. David H. Greer. The remains will be entombed at Dewdrop, Staten Island. The health of Cornelius Vanderbilt is a matter of solicitude at this time, because of the shock of his mother’s death coming upon him while he was still confined to his Newport home convalescing. Mr. De- pew said to-night that Mr. Vanderbilt had stood the trip from Newport better than might have been expected, and that he was certainly getting along well. Most men suffering from an attack as severe as that sustained by Mr. Vanderbilt would, bhe thought, have been confined to the house for six months and incapacitated from business for a longer period. From his remarks, it is evident Mr. Vanderbilt is able to give some slight attention to business matters, though still under the care of his physici e FELL INTO THE GRAVE. Growsome Exprrience of @ Xoung Woman at a Funeral. PITTSBURG, Pa., Nov. 8 — Blanche Bair, 2 young woman of Homestead, had a grewsome experience this afternoon when she fell into the grave prepared for her late friend Nellie Chapman. The two young women h; voted friends, and Miss Bair was among the most devoted mourners at ths funeral. She accompanied the remains to their last resting-place, and was close to the grave when she was obliged to move to get out of the way of an approaching Coroner. 1t happened that she stepped onto ‘he lid of the rougk box, which tiltea, throw- ing her feet first into the grave. As she 1ell her head and shoulders struck on the side of the grave and the lid fell onto her, striking ber on the back of the neck. The young woman was pulled out in an unconscious state and removed to her home, where a physician attended her. She did not regain consciousness until three hours later. Her injuriesare said to be slight, but she was greatly frightened. e e— ' The New Champagne Vintage. By its remarkable quality and dryness, with- out being heavy, the splendid 'bx:av vintage of G H.

Begins by Causing the Hated Vali of Diarbekir to Be Dismissed. EUROPEAN DEADLOCK BROKEN. The Powers Believed to Hive Reached an Agreem-nt fo Act in Unison. PARIS, Fraxce, Nov. 8.—It is evident that the speech delivered in the Chamber of Depnties by M. Hanotaux, Minister of Foretgn Affairs, has had an extraordinary effect upon the Sultan of Turkey and. has produced results that the most sanguine almost despaired of ever s'eing. The statement cabled last night by the United Associated Presses as to the attitude of the Sultan after he learned what M. Hano- taux had said, and the many reforms he promised in consequence of the attitude of France, was official, it having emanated from tue Foreign Office here. Seldom, if ever, has partial fulfiliment followed so closely upon the Turkish promises, and it is betieved here that all reforms promised by the Sultan will be carried out as quickly as circumstances will permit, particularly as M. Cambon, the French Embassador to the Porte, has received precise instruc- tions from the Foreign Office to watch the application of the preliminary reform in the Turkish administration. As stated in last night’s dispatches, the Sultan, as soon as he received from the Turkish Embassador here a telegraphic report of M. Hanotsux’s speech, sent one of his secretaries to M. Cambon, who im- pressed upon the secretary that there was urgent mnecessity for the Sultan toadopt measures to reassure the public opinion and satisly Europe. The French repre- sentative spoke with no uncertain tone, and the whole conversation was repeated by the secretary to the Sultan, who ap- parently realized that the time for trifling past. At any rate the Turkish Em- bassador at Paris yesterday visited the Foreign Office and informed M. Hanotaux that the Saltan had decided upon effect- ing widespread and radical reforms. Among the promises made by the Stitan was one to dismiss the Vali of Diarbekir for the share he took in the disorders there, and this promise has already been falfitled. Khalid Bey, president of the Criminal Court, will replace the dismissed Vali. Advices from Constantinople show it is understood there an extra tribunai which was appointed in consequence of the massacres will be immediately dissolved. Telegrams have been sent by the Porte to all the military governors informing them that they will be beld answerable for any further bloodshed. —_—— Europe’s Orders to the Porte. CONSTANTINOPLE, TUrKEY, Nov. 8.— that they had not yet been informed of the names of the Ottoman delegates on the commission to reorganize the police and judiciary of Crete. They also ob- jected to the recent order for the payment of the tax cotlected by the tribunal of commerce$hnto the State this year, and it was directed that the salaries of the tri- bunal of commerce should be paid before the taxes were converted into the treas- ury. e POWERS ACTI G JOINTLY. The European Weadlock Believed to Be at an End. LONDON, Exc., Nov. 8.—The Daily Graphic will to-morrow say that the hur- ried capitulation of the Snitan to M. Cam- bon, the French Embassador to Turkey, shows that the European deadlock is ended, and that the powers have finally decided upon a joint plan of action. The Daily News will express itself as being skeptical of the reforms being car- ried out unless M. Hanotaux has secured Russia’s active support. The Standard to-morrow will publish a dispatch from Vienna saying it is reported there that France has obtained the assist- ance of Russia in a reorganization of the Turkish financeson the basis of European control. The dispatch notes that M, Berger, the agent of the French holders of Turkish bonds, is now in St. Petersburg. The Standard will say the action of France and Russia in Constantinople is virtually a confession that Great Britain wasright all along in the belief that coercion was necessary. —_————— To Extend the Reforms, PARIS, Fraxce, Nov. 8 —The Temps has a dispatch from Constantinople stat- ing that a decree ordering the extension of the reforms promised for the province of Anatolia to the whole empire was sub- mitted to-day to the Council of Ministers. MEXICAN RAILEOAD CONCESSION, American Capitalists Will Furnish Money for the Enterprisc. ST. LOUIS, Mo., Nov. 8.—A special to a morning paper from Victoria, Mex., says: Governor Guadalupe Maninero of this city has been granted a concession for the construction of a railroad from San Miguel, a town opposite Rio Grande City, Tex., to the Guli Railroad. The Federal Goverament will give him a subsidy of $5000 for each Kkilometer constructed. United States capitalists will furnish the money for the enterprise. This road will make an important link in a direct road from the Texas border to the City of Mexico. 3 e SAW THE CZAI’S TRIUMPHS. Emperor William baid to Have Visited Paris Incognito. PARIS, Fraxce, Nov. 3.—The Gaulois publishes an extraordinary story that the French Government has been semi-offi- cially apprised that Emperor Wiliilam came to Paris incognito during the visit of the Czar. The Czar, the Gaulois adds, saw him at Versailles, and several officers knew he was present at Chalons at the time of the military manenvers there. He attended the gala performances given at the Opera in honor of the Czar, and pre- caution was taken to prevent an unfavor- able scene if he wasrecognized. The story linds few believers.

SPANISH SWORD Brutal - Attack Upon an Unoffending American in Cuba. Wounded by an Officer After Proving That He Was an Alien. SEVENTEEN PACIFICOS SLAIN. Murder of Unarmed Workingmen Reported as a Decisive Victory. KEY WEST, Fra., Nov. 8.—Passengers who arrived last night from Havana brought news of another outrage come mitted on an American citizen. Although the details are incomplete the facts are positive, since the vicim has filed a pro- test with Vice-Consul Springer and the case has been sent to Washington for in- structions. It appesrs that near the town of San Jose de las Lajas, this province, a Spanish force patroling the country surprised three rebels who tried to sneak into town. The Spaniards gave chase and the rebels fled. In order to discover the hiding place of the fugitives the Spanish forces were divided into squads of fifty men and sent in different directions. One of these parties went to the estate owned by a Cuban where Frederick L. Craycraft, a native of Indiana aud only two years in Cuba, was manager. They entered the residence, destroyed ihe fur- niture and ransacked the premises. The women present were insulted in the most outrageous manner. Craycraft protested that be was an American and showed pa- pers. This seemed to incense the officer in command, who drew a sword and com- menced slashing at Craycrait. He man- aged to avert death, but was wounded in the back, receiving a fearful gash thct carried away part of the flesh. His fore- arm was also cut to the bone. The other officérs interfered and saved hislife, Cray= craft was forced to deliver about $160 in his possession. Meantime Craycraft heard great oute cries outside, and later found that seven- teen Pacificos had been killed. There was not one insurgent among them. All this was reported last week as a great Spanish victory. Letters received from Puerto Principe give furtber details of the capture of the town - of Guayamaro by Calixto Garcia. The whole garrison, 160 men, surrendered and are still prisoners, although Garcia sent word to Castellanos that he would deliver them. Garcia is also attending to the officers’ and soidiers’ wounds. It is rumored that Weyler has issued secret orders to military commanders in the sugar districts prohibiting grinding, except on Spenish properties. Orders have also been issued to seize foreigners residing on sugar estates, to kill cattie and destroy implements and to simulate a fight in order to scare the farmers and laborers. Passengers by the steamer Olivette re- port that numerous ‘insurgents from the command of General Gomez have entered the province of Matanzas during the past few days and have caused General Weyler to dispatch 6000 of his troovs stationed in Pinar del Rio district into Matanzas. Considerabie excitement exists in Havana and alro in Matanzas, the people fearing an attack upon the latter place. AT SRR, 5} WATCHING ZTHE FILIBUSTERS. Mysterious Movements of the Dauntleas and Three Friends. JACKSONVILLE; Fla., Nov. 8.—The steamer Dauntless, seized by the collector of customs at Fernandina for violating navigation laws by not carrying a suffi- cient number of lifeboats, has, itis alleged gone to Brunswick, Ga., to engage in the towing business. The Government offi cials are suspicious of the alleged filibus- ter and yesterday, assoon as the revenue cutter Colfax arrived here in charge of Captain Herring, the cutter Boutwell at once took on coal and started in pursuit of the Dauntless. In an hour after the Boutwell crossed the bar the filibustering steamer Three Friends left its dock and crossed the bar after dark. It had on board three weeks’ supply of coal. The Three Friends was closely followed by the steamer Kate Spen- cer, which has several times carried out cargoes of armsand ammunition for the Three Friends. The United States cruiser Raleigh has been ordered from Key West to the St. Johns bar to watch for Yilihus- tering expeditio! A N CLAIMS AGAINST BSPAIN.
