Hon. A. E. Cadt of St Paul is again

near deserving election as any man in
the state.
Frank Lee and Frank Harrington,
sentenced to sixteen and eighteen months
respectively to the United States peni

Li Hono Chang is credited with being
a pretty shrewd statesman, and certainly
the following remark touches bottom:
"The European powers never attempt to
destroy a government which owes them
more than its land is worth."
James Daiimian of the state board of
transportation, and Mr. Edmisten, chair
man of the populist state committee, are
candidates for fusion governor. If har
mony is not to 1h) attained with either of
them William J. Bryan is to receive the
nomination.
Of all the money used by the silver
men in Ohio to defeat the McKinley ad
ministration, Mark Hanna came out
winner. It is not the man Hanna the
fight was against, but the Bryanites,
thinking the state debatable ground,
rushed in to elect a silver senator who
might do them some good later on.
Fridav last in the U. S. senate, the
conGrmation of Joseph McKenna, now
attorney-general, to be associate justice

Senator Allen among others, the ground
being want of legal attainments; that

The tornado which swept through

less than seventy others are injured, a
large number of whom are seriously
hurt, and several are expected to die. A
quantity of tin roofing from Garrison
Avenue lmildings was found thirty-five
miles northeast or the city.
The chief editorial writer of the New
York Journal, Arthur McEwan, comes
out in a signed article in that paper
strongly criticising William J. Bryan as
clinging too closely to the idea of 16 to 1
to suit progressive democrats. The sub
stance of the criticism is: "Bimetallism,
by all means. It is the money of the
constitution, and therefore democratic,
but why a ratio of 1(1 to 1 or death?
What decre of heaven has given that
ratio a sacred ness beyond all other pos
sible ratios?"
Senator Allen's closing paragraph of
his recent speech in the United States
senate (a copy of which he has kindly
sent us) is on the financial policy of the
government. He commends to his read
ers the words of the great Irish patriot,
which are so sound that we reproduce
them: "It is the common fate of the
indolent to see their rights become a
prey to the active. The condition upon
which God hath given liberty to man is
eternal vigilance; which condition if he
break, servitude is at once the conse
quence of his crime and the punishment
of his guilt

Columbus, O., Jan. 18. Sneaker
Mason of the house of representatives

resentative Otis of Hamilton county to
vote for Marcus A. Hanna for senator.
The committee is composed of Repre
sentatives Rntan of Carroll county,
Spelltnyer of Hamilton, Boxwell of
Warren, Rankin of Fayette and Ken
ey of Mercer. Spellmyer and Kenney
are Democrats and voted for McKisson
for senator. The other three members
are Republicans, but Rntan voted for
McKisson, making the committee an
anti-Hanna committee.

Coaeeraiag- Prodactioa of Sugar.
Washington, Jan. 18. Features of
Monday's proceedings in the senate
were the speech delivered by Senator
Wolcott of Colorado, chairman of the
bimetallic commission, upon the nego
tiations of the commission with Euro
pean countries relative to international
bimetallism and the passage of the
Lodge bill restricting immigration into
the United States. The proceedings
were the most interesting and impor-'
tent that have characterized any single
day's work of the senate during the
present session. In anticipation of
them the galleries were crowded at an
early hour.
Quite unexpectedly Senator Hanna
appeared at the opening of the session.
Foraker (O.) presented Mr. Hanna's
credentials for the remainder of Mr.
Sherman's term, which will expire on
March 4, 1899, and asked that the oath
of office be administered to him. Mr.
Foraker escorted his colleague to the
desk, where Vice President Hobart ad
ministered the oath.
At the conclusion of the morning's
business Mr. Wolcott at 12 :15 was rec
ognized to begin his address. He was
in fine voice and commanded the earn
est attention of his auditors. At the
conclusion of the speech Mr. Wolcott
was instantly surrounded by his Repub
lican friends desirous of tendering him
congratulations.
Wolcott's Speech.
Mr. Wolcott enumerated the obstacles
with which the commission had to
contend, in which he included the
remarkable drop in the price of silver,
the coincident tariff legislation in the
United States and the statements of
New York bankers in England, who, he
said, sought access to the English offi
cials and assured them that any senti
ment which had formerly existed in the
United States in favor of bimetallism
was dead. Other statements made by
the bankers, according to Mr. Wolcott,
were the following : That the mission
was sent solely as a sop to a few far
western Republicans ; that the country
generally favored the gold standard,
and that tho president of the United
States shared this view.
"The statements were," Mr. Wolcott
said, "of course untrue, but in support
of them these people assumed to present
Interviews and statements of the direc
tor of the mint, a hold-over from the
last administration, the late comptroller
Of the currency, au equally precious
legacy, now out of the public service,
and translated to a Chicago bank, and
pretended statements in letters and in
terviews from tho secretary of the treas
ury to the effect that there was no
chance for international or other bi
metallism, and favoring the permanent
adoption of the gold standard. No
body in Europe cared a rap what the
two minor prophets thought or said, as
nobody in this country cares, bnt the
alleged statements of the secretary of
the treasury were a different matter.
We insisted that the letters must be for
geries aud the interviews fictitious, and
I trust they were, for it was-inconceiv-able
that a member of the cabinet
would seek to undermine the efforts of a
mission appointed by the president, and
whose efforts he was cordially and zeal,
ously seconding."
RcsicBs as a Member of the Commitsloa.
Mr. Wolcott summarized the present
situation by saying that it is apparent
that for the time being it is useless to
count on any co-operation from Great
Britain towards a bimetallic agreement,
and that- while France actively desires
to see silver restored to its old position
as a standard of value equally with
gold, she insists that the problem is one
which demands international actiou,
and the co-operation, to some adequate
extent, of other leading commercial na
tions of the world.
Here Mr. Wolcott announced his in
tention to retire from the commission.
He said : "It is my sincere conviction
that an international bimetallic agree
ment is still feasible, by the terms of
which certain countries will join us
and open their mints to the unlimited
coinage of silver, and others will con
tribute to the plan an enlarged use of
that metal as money ; and I say this the
more freely because I shall give way
upon the commission to somebody more
fitted for such negotiations and better
able to give them his constant time."
Rap at Secretary Gave.
At this point he referred to the alti
tude of Secretary Gage on the financial
question, contrasting it with the presi
dent's position, his words on this point
being as follows : "When congress con
vened on the 7th of last month the
president, in his references to the sub
ject of international bimetallism, spoke
earnestly and anxiously of his desire to
see an international bimetallic agree
ment consummated. His assurances
gave renewed hope to bimetallists all
over the country, and seemed final and
conclusive answer to those who had
claimed the president was not in earn
est in bis efforts towards international
bimetallism. For myself, I needed io
such proof. I had again and again been
made to know how genuine was the
president's devotion to this settlement
of the vexed question. Within a fort
night after this, with no event . mean
while which would change existing
conditions, the secretary of the treas
ury, in support of a bill which he had
prepared respecting the currency, said
as follows to a committee of congress :
(Here he quoted the remarks of the
secretary of the treasury).
"The two statements are utterly at
variance," he continued, "and contra
dictory to each other. They cannot be
reconciled. This is not the proper oc
casion to analyze the bill of the secre
tary. It will reach limbo long "before
it reaches the senate. He proposed to
capitalize the premium on our bonds
sold recently, and to make them, with
others to be issued, a security definitely
payable in gold. He forgets that only
a few moBths ago, when the country
was in dire distress, we were compelled
to pay $9,000,000 for the -privilege of
keeping the word 'gold out of some of
these very bonds. He ought not to for
get, for the bank of which he was pres
ident, got, it is said, some of the bonds
ebb received soBteof the proceeds of
that deplorable transaction."
Mr. Wolcott concluded his speech at
2 K3 p. m., haviug spoken for an hour
and fifteen minutes. As he sat down
there was a burst of rpplause through
out the chamber, aud for several min
utes he was surronnded by bis col
leagues, who desired to tender their
congratulations. '
Tote oa Inamiffrutioa Bilk
At the conclusion of Mr. Wolcott's
speech the immigration bill was taken
np and discussed uatil 3 o'clock, the
hour at which, by previous agreement,
it had been arranged to vote finally
upon the amendments and the bill. An
amendment offered by Spooner (Wis.)
providing that the ability on the part
of the'immigrant either to read or to
write should be accepted as sufficient
test of his literacy, was adopted by
Tote of yeas, 42 ; nays, 22.
Another amendment by Mr. Spooner
providing that the members of the fam
ily accompanying an immigrant re
jected under the conditions of the bill
should be returned to the country
whence they came by the steamship
companies, was adopted.
Other attempts to amend the measure
were made, but failed. The bill passed
by b vote of yeas, 45 ; nays. 88.
The bill as passed provides that all
immigrants physically capable and over
UlG years of age,shall be able to read and
write the Eugltsh or some other lan
guage ; but a person not able to read or
write, aud is over 50 years of age and ia
the parent or grand-parent of a quali
fied immigrant over 21 years of age and
capable of supporting such parent or
grand-parent, may accompany the im
migrant, or the parent or grand-parent
may be sent for aud come to join the
family of a child or grand-child over 21
years of age qualified under the law ;
and wife or minor children not able to
read or write may accompany or ba
sent for and come to join the husband
or parent who is qualified.
The act does not apply to persons
coming from the island of Cuba during
the continuence of the present disor
ders there, who have heretofore been
inhabitants of that island.
Wilsoa oa Sagar Prodactioa.
Washington, Jan. 18. Replying to a
resolution of inquiry. Secretary Wilson
sent to the senate a statement concern
ing the production of sugar in this
country and his opinion of the effect
the importation of Hawaiian sugar
has upon the production of
beet sugar in the United States.
He gave the average importa
tion of sugar to this country for the
past seven years as $101 ,575,293 worth,
of which the Hawaiian importation
was $9,973,924. He concludes that
Hawaii will not seriously compete with
sugar producers in the United States
and says that "When the people of
those islands come to consider the possi
bilities of coffee production it will be
found that they have a monopoly with
which no state in the Union can inter
fere." Mr. Wilson also expresses the
opinion that Hawaii would be a very
profitable acquisition because of its
fruits.
Two Notable Speeches.
Washington, Jau. 18. Monday was
District of Columbia day in the house,
but only three bills of local importance
were passed. The remainder of the
session was devoted to the further con
sideration of the army appropriation
bill. The debate was particularly nota
ble for a vigorous speech by McClellan
(N. Y.). a son of General George B.
McClellan, attacking the present army
organization as obselete and inefficient.
He asserted that we were woefully un
prepared for war should a crisis come
and contended for mode.iu methods in
organization, equipment and supplies,
etc., which would euable the United
States to meet an emergency. Lewis
(Wash.) made a speech which attracted
attention, in denunciation of trusts,
which, he. declared, were threatening
the liberties of the country. The con
sideration of the army appropriation
bill was not completed.
Aa-Iaaalsitive Kesolatioa.
Washington, Jan. 18. Senator Har
ris introduced a resolution in the sen
ate directing the secretary of the treas
ury to inform the senate by whose
authority the item in the annual re
ports of the secretary of the treasury
relating to the "balance of accrued in
terest due the United States from the
Pacific railroads on interest account"
had been omitted. The preamble to
the resolution relates that this item was
included in the report of 18H0 and that
it was then shown that the accrued in
terest due from the railroads amounted
to $11,006,024 and since that date the
matter has been omitted from the re
ports. Committee Restores Salaries.
Washington, Jan. 18. The house
committee on Indian affairs has re
stored the salaries of the members of
the Dawes commission to $5,003 on the
Indian appropriation bill, bat refused
to put the number of commissioners
back to five from the three provided for
in the reduction.
Comptroller Declares Divides,
Washington, Jan. 18. The comp
troller of the currency has declared div
idends in favor of the creditors of in
solvent banks as follows: Five per
cent Sioux National bank of Sioux
City, la,, and 15 per cent the Union
National bank of Denver. Colo.

Boston, Jan. 18. The fight between

lead up to cannot be foretold. The
great corporations in New Bedford are
silent and thousands of operatives are
idle. While here and there discontent
has cropped oat, the most serious being
at Biddeford, Me., where 3,300 persons
have ref seed to work, thus closing two
mills, and at Lewiston, where one mill
was crippled by 400 weavers staying

On Jan. S the reduction took effect in

I hereby certify that the above statement Is true aad correct to the best of roj knowledge
y rni
Lowell and a large nmnber of smaller
places in this state aad New Hampshire.
The Atlantic and Purine corporation of
Lawrence and probably the other cot
ton mills there and in one or two places
elsewhere will make a cnt next Mon
day. Tb.fi cut aunnnts to about 10 per
cent in many places, bnt in several
centers it i3 11 1-9 per eent and even
higher, while in a few small mills it is
only about 5 per ceut.
The New Bedford strikers will be
supported financially by the operatives
in other centers and it is said they are
preparing to hold ont until spring. The
national organization of textile unions
has also voted to support the New Bed
ford strike. It is estimated that the re
duction means a loss of between $75,000
and $85,000 n week to the wage earners
in the six states and the additional loss
to strikers in the various centers if they
remain idle even for a short time will
swell this amount to a much larger
figure.
The textile operatives everywhere
are greatly interested in the New Bed
ford struggle, for there the test of
strength and endurance will come. The
chief point in this battle will be disci
pline, and the command of organized
labor brought well nigh perfect obed
ience. X.w Bedford Situation.
Yesterday passed peacefully, but this
incident is in some quarters feared as a
forerunner to the odds the strikers will
take if driven to desperation. From
the point of view of the mill owner the
New Bedford sitmation is a lockout. In
tervention by the state board of arbitra
tion this week is hardly likely to be al
lowed and no overt act on the part of
strikers and no attempt to open a mill
is expected for a few days. The New
Bedford strikers will receive strike
money from operatives
elsewhere, but
the sum total will be reserved until a
protracted battle brings on want and
hardship which the unious will then
try to relieve. AU the New Bedford
mills opened at bell-time yeetdax'a
usual. Where no help came lights went
out, speed stopped.overseers and second
hands prepared to make everything
snug and mill gates were closed indefin
itely. The labor union did little work
except to carry out plans of campaign,
which will be developed only as faint
hearted weavers seek to return to
work.
Minor Strikes,
Of the other strikes little ha3devel
oped in them as yet to forecast the future-
The Laconia and Pepperell mill
workers in Biddeford struck because
they were anxious to. while the weav
ers in the Androscoggin mills, Lewis
ton, simply took the matter into their
own hands regardless of the other de
partments. These strikes on identical
issues will serve only in the minor
fights along the line, unless the strike
grows. One other minor fight is on at
Burlington, Vt., where the Queen City
mills shut down indefinitely becauso
the operatives refused point blank to
accept the reduction. This, however,
began a number of days ago, but
reached the acute stage yesterday.
Taking the day's events throughout, it
may conservatively be said that things
came to a pass just a expected. It is
the immediate future which awakens
apprehensions.

Paris, Jan. 18. A great anti-Drey
fas and anti-Semite meeting last night
at the Tivoli Vauxhall produced extra
ordinary scenes. The neighborhood
was paraded by police mounted and' on
foot and the rapidly growing crowd in
creased the excitement.
At 9 o'clock, on the opening of the
meeting, the hall was a seething sea of
humauity, crowding every part, gestic
ulating, shouting "A bas Zola" and
"Vive la revolution raciale."
The members of the antisemite com
mittee displayed banners 'tearing the
inscription, "Death to the Jews" and
other inscriptions. It was soon seen
that the 5,000 present consisted largely
of anarchists and others bent on oppos
ing the students.
Great Uproar.
On M. Guerin, the president, propos
ing that the honorary presidency be
conferred upon M. Rochefort and M.
Drnmont, a great uproar ensued, the
anarchists trying to wrench the ban
ners from the antisemites.
Scuffles took place, in which two of
the officials were injured. M. Thie
baud delivered an address denouncing
the Jews-and urging the meeting to
support the government.
Tumults and fights for the banners
continued, with shouting, whistling
and singing of the "Marseillaise and
the Garmagognole, while M. Thie

claring that the Dreyfus scandal was
the commencement of a social revolu
tion "by a band of scoundrels desiring

that the committee were unable to es
cape. Free fights began. Finally the
students chased the anarchists ont of
the hall. The organizers of the meet
ing then seized the flags decorating the
