James Thompsou, one the most widely
known bankers and land speculators fo
the west for many years past, occurred

land of the government in 50,000 acre
tracts and in some instances purchased
the entire holdings of railroad com
panies. A partial inventory of his es
tate, filed by his guardian last week,
showed assets of nearly $1,800,000. For
12 years he was president of the First
National bank of this city. He was 08
years of age and is survived hy a wife
and three children, all grown.

Mr. Morgan said emphatically. "I have
not seen Mr. Cleveland in two years.
There is not the slightest shadow of a
foundation in the statement." He re
fused to discuss the question further.

rency committee, took the floor in favor
of the bill.
The debate started sluggishly, Mr,
t U1....1. .i..:i ... u.s -......... 1. n..
banking and currency committee had
heard only national bankrira while con
pidering tho pending measure and had
turned a deaf ear to all others. He met
and panned other criticisms of opponents
of the bill and gave an historical re
view of the financial doctrines of Demo
cratic presidents from Jefferson to Cleve
land.
Legislation had not caused all the
misfortunes under which tho peoplo
were suffering, he said. It might have
contributed to their misfortunes and he
believed the passage of tho present bill
would contribute to their relief, bnt he
deprecated the feeling abroad in tho

gress. Mr. Black's advocacy of state banks of

ver. Mr. Haugen (Rep., Wis.1, who
followed, oppocd the measure.

New York, Jan. 3. M. M. Guggen
heimer & Son of New York city hare
during the last few days shipped largo
quantities of bar silver from Omahs,
Kansas City, Aurora and Now York
city to tho City of Mexico for coinage

coals to Newcastle. They state that it
may be considered a strong illustration
of the effect which the low price of sil
ver is having on the trade of silver coun

imports, coupled with large increase of
exports of merchandise. Countries on a
silver basis are prospering under the
low price of silver, while gold basis
countries are suffering.
