When the Telegraph is the means
of bringing about a much needed
reform The Tribune will probably family of our late comrade our deep
howl with envy, but it never ex- sympathy in this their hour of
pects an apportunity to make the affliction.
Resolved, That this Post drapes
her charter for thirty davs; that a
was the firk to leave pR5(1pf copy of these resolutions be sent to
Cleveland' Cnhinf Kf i,A 1,00 e family of our late comrade, and invitation you have tendered me on hehnlf
v-ieveiana s cabinet, but he has fol- J , :i. of many citizens of Chicago to be their
truest at a gathering, in the interest of
sound money and wholesome financial
doctrine. My attachment to this caase is
great, and I know so well the hospitality
and kindness of the. people of Chicago that
my personal inclination is strongly in
favor of accepting your flattering invita
tion: but my judgment and my estimate
of the proprieties of my official place ob
ligo me to forego the enjoyment of partici
pating in the occasion you contemplate. I
hone, however, that the event will mark
the beginning of an earnest and aggres
give effort to disseminate among the peoplo
safe and prudent financial ideas. Nothing
more important can engage the attention
of patriotic citizens, because nothing is so
vital to the welfare of our countrymen and
to the strength, prosperity and honor of
our nation
The situation confronting ns demands
that those who appreciate tho importance
of this subject and those who ought to be
the first to see impending danger should
no longer remain indifferent or overconfl
dent. If the sound money sentiment
abroad in the land is to save ns from mis
chief and disaster, it must be crystalized,
combined and made immediately active.
It is dangerous to overlook the fact that a
vast number of our people with scanty
opportunity thus far to examine the ques
tion in all its aspects, have nevertheless
been ingeniously pressed with specious
suggestions, which in this timo of misfor
tune and depression find willing listenors,
prepared to give credence to any scheme
which is plausibly presented as a remedy
for their unfortunate condition.
What is now needed more than anything
else is a plain and simple presentation of
the argument in favor of sound money.
In other words, it is a timo for the Ameri
can people to reason together as members
of a great nation which can promiso them
a continuance of protection and safety,
only so longa3 its solvency is unsuspected,
its honor unsullied and tho soundness of
its money unquestioned.
These things are ill-exchanged for the
illusions of a base currency and ground
less hope of advantages to be gained by a
disregard of our financial credit and com
mercial standing among the nations of
world. In these restless days the farmer
is tempted by the assurance that though
our currency may be debased, redundant
and uncertain, such a situation will im
prove the price of his products. Let us re
mind him that ho must buy as well as
sell; that his .droams of plenty are shaded
by the certainty that If tho price of the
things ho has to sell is nominally en
hanced the cost of the things he must buy
will not remain stationary; that the best
prices cheap money proclaims aro unsub
stantial and elusive and that even if they
were real and palpable, he must jiecessari
ly be left far behind for their enjoyment.
It ought not to bo difficult to convince
tho-wage earner that it would reach him
least of all. In an unhealthy stimulation
of prices, an increased cost of all the needs
of his home must belong to his portion.
while he is at tho same time vexed with
vanishing visions of increased wages and
an easier lot. The pages of history and
experience are full of tne lesson. An in
siduous attempt is made to create a preju
dice against tne advocates of a safe and
sound currency by tho insinuation, more
or loss directly made, that they belong to
financial and business classes and there
fore not only out of sympathy with tho
common
and wicked purposes are willing to sacri
flee the interests of those ontsido their cir
cles. I believe that capital, and wealth,
through combinations and other means,
sometimes gain an undue advantage; and
it must be conceded that tho maintenance
of a sound currency may, in a sense, bo
invested with a greater or less importance
to individuals according to tneir condition
and circumstances.
It is, however, only a difference in de-
greo, since it is utterly impossible that any
one in our broad land, rich or poor, what
ever mar be his occupation and whether
dwelling in a center of finance and com
merce or in a remote corner of our domain,
can bo really benefited by a financial
scheme not aliko beneficial to all our peo
ple or that anyone should be excluded
from a common and universal interest in
the safe character and staple valuo of tho
currency of tho country. In our relation
to this question, we aro all in business, for
we all buy and sell; so we all have to do
with financial operations, for we all earn
money and spend it. We cannot cscapo
our interdependence. Merchants and
dealers are in every neighborhood and
each has its Bhops and manufactures.
Whenever the wants of man exist, busi
ness and finance is in some degree found,
related in one direction to those whose
wants they supply and in another to the
more extensive business and finance to
which they aro tributary.
A fluctuation in prices at the seaboard
is known the same day or hour in the re
motest hamlet. The disoredit or depres
sion in financial centers of any form of
money in the hands of the people is a sig
nal of immediate loss everywhere. If
reckless discontent and wild experiments
should sweep our currency from its safe
support, tho most defenseless of all who
suffer in the time of distress and national
discredit would be the poor as they reckon
their loss in their scanty support and the
laborer and workingman as he sees the
money he has received for his toil shrink
and shrivel in his hand when he tenders
it for the necessaries to supply his humble
home.
Disguise it as wo may, the line of battlo
is drawn between tho forces of safe cur
rency and those of silver monometallism.
I will not believe that if our peoplo are
afforded an intelligent opportunity for
sober second thought they will sanction
schemes that, however cloaked, mean dis
aster and confusion, nor that they will
consent by undermining the foundation
of a safe currency to endanger the bene
ficient character and purposes of their
government. Tours very truly,

DAMAGING PROOF AGAINST fHTKANX

Marder ef Mtees Lament aad WllliuM.
San Fraxcisco. April 15. -The net is
tightening around W. H. T. Dorsnt,
the dental student in jail for the mur
der of Blanch Lamont and Minnie Will'
iams in Emanuel church. Chief of Po
lice Crowley claims to have evidence
enongh now to convict him beyond a
doubt. Dnrant had been attentive to
both girls. Each girl regarded him as
a lover. They were both members of
the church and. were friends. Both be
longed to the same class in Sanday
school. The young man was librarian
of the4 church and assistant superin
tendent of the Sunday school.
Other circumstances which bear
against him are that he had- the key to
the church; was seen conducting; Miss
Williams into a private door of the
church Friday evening; was late arriv
ing at the Vogel reception, and upon,
arriving there showed a nervous condi
tion and disordered attire. There is a
rumor -tuac mere was Diood on ms
hands. In his overcoat pocket was
found the girl's missing puree. Miss
Williams was to have gone to Dr. Vo-
gel's Friday evening, started for the
house, met Dnrant and was never seen
alive again. The sleeve of the man's
white shirt rolled up in a wad as though;
it had been stripped off the arm, was
found. It was soiled and had blood
stains on it but they were old. An-,
other significant fact is that Blanch La
mont, who was murdered first and car
ried to the church belfry, was strangled
by alef t handed man who used the left
hand in choking the girl. Dnrant is
ambidextrous, using either hand with
dexterity.
BATTLE BETWEEN' BEAR AND BUM-

Lakedo, Tex., April 15. The fight
between the California grizzly and the
Mexican fighting bxdl, Panther, took,
place today as advertised in the bull
ring in New Laredo, Mex., but though
it pleased the crowd it was not much of
a fight after all. The bear died an hour
after the fight. Great consternation
was caused at one stage of the game
when the bear, "Ramidan," being pur
sued in one of the corners by mad
rushes, proceeded to climb out over the
top of the cage. Old, staid, phlegmatic
citizens and government officials, bank
ers and business men, who had not been
obliged to move actively since their boy
hood, all made a rush for the top rail

over the barbed top of the cage, quietly
gone down tne way ne went up these
good gentlemen would certainly have
jumped down the 25 feet to the outside.

Russellvtlle, April 15. The much
dreaded army worm has made its ap

rounding counties. There are millions
of them, and they are making a clean
sweep of everything green that lies in
their way. They have devastated fields
of young corn and clover, and hundreds
of plant beds have been literally eaten
up not a sprig of the tobacco plants be
ing left. Some of the farmers have re
sown their beds, and it will throw their
crops late. Farmers are ditching
against the worms, and bushels of them
have been killed. The greatest surprise
to the farmers is that these worms have
made their appearance so early. It has
been 14 years since the army worms
were as numerous in this section as they
are now, and they have arrived six
weeks earlier than on their former visit.

to official reports lasted two hours. At
the end of that time the rebels re
treated, were pursued by the Spanish
troops and Maceo captured. His Secre
tary was also taken and all the per
sonal and private papers of General
Maceo were confiscated. The battle
was a hard fought one. and the insur
gents battled desperately against odds.
The Spanish soldiers acted with remark
able courage and resisted the onslaught.
The battle was a hand-to-hand conflict,
and a number of Cuban officers, one of
whom was a colonel, were killed.
Maceo was a leader of the rebel forces
with Gomez during the last revolution.
Though but a youth he achieved consid
erable distinction. Maceo's fate is
known in advance. It would be far
better for him if he had been killed, as
was Crombet, than to be brought here
to Havana and put in old Morra castle's
gloomy prison. He" will be kept there
for some time, and then possibly he will
be given a mock trial. It is certain he
will be garroted.
"We have no need of Campos and his
troops now," said a Spanish officer,
when he heard of Maceo's capture and
Crombet's death.
Consul General Williams is preparing
for an early departure, and Vice Consul
Springer assumes the duties of tho office
at once.
Calleja, captain general of Cuba, who
is in supreme authority until the arrival
of Campos, who, by royal proclamation,
is commander whenever he lands, was

In the house there wore five families,
all colored. That they all escaped with
