Tlio largest amount of In dividual profit Is $ J75,000. laat goes to the credit of a western senator.

We were flcTiihif ? up In Now York the other day the extent of tlio deal nnd the profits on t. Wo found that before the silver bill he- camonjlaw the amount of silver taken In by .ho . various pools for the expected rise was ; 0OOO,000ounces. That Is ouronttro product 'or clghtmonths , you know. Just think of it L" "AVhat have the profits bccnl" "Tho pool t am In bought some at a littlfl csstlmtiOj. The rest cost us something moro thnn 9. . The avorngo for the whole was about 07. .August Bclmont nnd his 'riemls pot in at from O"i to 93. Sliver has jeen ns high as 120. It Is now 117. I think 20 cents an ounce is a fair ostimita of the iroflts of the pools to this tlmo. Twenty cents nn ounce on 40,000,000 ounces is 63,000- , 000. Well , that represents tha profits oy the tfevr York and Washington pools on the ad- vnnco of silver. "Do you know how the -lO.OoO.OOO ounces were divided 1" "I have a pretty good idea. Tno August Belmont pool got hold of 8,000,000 , ounces. I don't think any of It cost over 100 , and most of H was got below 93. "WoodardnndJ. M. Donncll of the Hanover National hank , H , V. I'.irsons of the Wolls-Fargo Express com pany , 1JMJ. Oleott , president of the Central .rust company and their associate , took la 0,000,000 ounces. The Seligtnnn Brothers' ' loolhncl from 4,000,000 , to { 5,000,009 , ounces , Stitching , the vice president of the Third National of Now York , was at tbo head of a small sjndicato which bought 1,000,000 ounces. The Fourth National bank held 4,500,000 , ounces. Simon & Co. , got 51,000,000 ounces. These -were } ho principal pools made up In NCIV York. "Tho largest pool of all , probably , was ono which took in seven United States sen ators and n number of Wow York ; capitalists. That pool had 9,000,000 ounces. The other holdings were small , but altogether they made up 4,000,000 ounces bought and held for the ilsowhich wo knew waaas sure as sunrlso If congress passed a favorable silver bill. " "Was any money spent in Washington to influence legislationl" "Not in the way of buving votes , \Vohad men under employment to watch , things and givotho latest in formation. Then woworked up sentiment. Something -was spent In pub- lisblng articles in the newspapers. Several good silver men were kept iiore Tinder salar ies to talk and to represent the strong silver feeling in the west. " "Thorownsa lobby fund , but not a cor ruption fundl" That isabout it. No senator or representa tive was offered as much as a dollar to vote for a silver till. Some of them -\\ero shown how they could make a little money by specu lating on the rise of silver which was sure to follow the passage of a favorable bill. They were approached through f ilonds who were in the pool. These friends offered to let them into a good thing. Soveni senators and representatives put in their money- and took n few thousand ounces apicco. There were otlicrswho liadn'ttho money to specu late with. It was nrrangod. that the impecu nious should have certain amounts carried for thom by the pools. II silver -went up they were to have the profits. If it didn't go up they were to got nothingAuout 350OOJ ! was put up to got the silver , which was bought and carried for these senators and representatives who didn't invest their own money. Of course this $2T 0,000 was not spent or lost. These who raised it got it back , less interest and com missions. Iho senators and representatives for whom the silver was bought got the proilts. " "Tho proposition wasn't inado indiscrim inately. The silver men picked out a few fol lows wbo would bo useful , or to whom they wanted to do a good turn , and. let them in on the ground lloor. The silver speculation lias been handled mighty well , I toll 3'ou , The men who -were In it were closo-moutucd. They didn't go around scattering- money or pointers , either. I'll ' give you a little story to Illustrate this. A certain senator wont over to Now Vorlt whllo the sll vor bill was pond ing. Ho drew $200,000 through Wolls-Fartf * to carry his silver , That night Ed. Stokoi went up to the senator's ' room at the Hoffman house nnd asked him what ho thought of tbo prospect of favorable silver legislation , and whether silver was a good tiling- buy at the market price , Iho senator replied ! ' 'It's ' dangerous , Ed.1 "Has most of the 40,000,000 , ounces beca unloaded by the pools } " "Only 50yev cent of it. Some of the hold ers have been letting go gradually. A peed deal la tied up in njr&emonts not to sell until the prices roach 1W. Some of the contracts prevent any selling until November and De cember. The pooli nro sowell organized that them Is no danger of ovorsclllngor breaking down the price. Tha prollt , us the Invest ment stands today , is SO cents an ounce , or $3,000,000. It will bo hotter than that for some oftho pools when thoysottlo. " " You think silver Is going higher } " "It will go to 128 or 12) ) by March next. There Isn't any doubt of that , for tha men who arc In tie pools : ire shrewd llnauclcH , with plenty of capital behind them. The ad vance was steady until 120 was reached. Then tlio tightness of the money market cuno on nnd some of the holders bad to have means. They unloaded enough to drop tha prlco to 117 , out you will see silver boclu to climb again just as soon as the stringency Is passed , "Was there nny Missouri representative on tlio list for whom sliver was carried 3" "Yes , ono. I think they carried 10,000 , ounces , That -would irlvo nlinaproflb > . Was ho a democrat or republican. 1" "A democrat.

I think that there were not moro than tlltoen representatives who were taken In. " "Kepubllcan s or democrats } " "O , republicans mostly , of course , What did wo want vlth the u d fool democrats } They were bound to vote for what wuwanted any way. There were ono southern and thrco Moslem democrats among the senators who had silver carried for them. Altogether tbero \vcro twelve senators I know of wht > made good stakes out of the rise of silver. " "IJId the pool take in any ofllclaU in "Wash ington outside of congress !

Bonnpirto of Bal timore rand a pnper on "Itclatlon of Civil Service Reform to Otbor neforms , " In which ho said U is the function of civil service ) reform to provide for nil other reform. To oxnect to pot solutions to such problotut as the tariff , currency and the jicnslon system olthor house of congress or to deal wisely with tho'labor and liquor questions through such men ns make up our legislatures and city councils Is as rational ns to cxpcctllgs to crow from thistles , A. long discussion was had on the proposition to print the different papers , some of the gentlemen tiking excep tions to a portion of their contents nnd objecting to their going on record apparently ns Iclngsanctlonedby the association. A resolution was finally adopted that ttio exceutUo cominlttco bo directed hi preparing papers for publication to prefix a tioto that the lenguo it not responsible for views therein expressed. Tliocomtmtteoon resolutions presented a lengthy report , which was unanimously ndopted. The league congratulates the coun try that the attempt to nullify tlio reform law during the present session was dofeatcd In the house : that the law was defended by dis tinguished , members of both parties. The league recognizes the fact that $ ,000 places in the public service ore now flllod up on a Irco and fnlr competition by merit ulono , whllo Commissioner Roosevelt gives assur- nnco that 03 per cent of the clerks so ap pointed under the last administration nro being retained. It recalls with satisfaction the action of the attorney general in sustain ing the civil sor\lco commission ; the revoca tion of appointments made In defiance of the reform law and the indictment of persons for receiving political contributions ! commends the explanation of the civil sorvlco commis sion before the house committee and con gratulates the country upon the choice of commissioners by the present administration. Willeaccordingtho national administration the greatest credit for whatever advances have been made , the league finds It nccessnry to remind the country that the iiledgcs made by Unsuccessful party at the last election have been disregarded. The reform system has not been extended , thosplritand purpose of reform not only 1ms not been observed In nil the exccutivo departments , but often violated. The laws at variance vlth reform legislation have not boon repealed , nor las thcro been any proposition for a repeal. Against this contempt of pledges the Icairuo records its unqualified protest. The removal of post masters from other cnusp thnn political opin ions or partv afllliations resulting in parti san devastation of Van- * important branchof the public servlco is a breach of faith with the country and a grave offense ) against pure politics and tne interest of an efficient public service , The IniporUnt duty of taking- the census should havdbcqn committed toofticcrs selected because of JHness and with no 10- pard to political or/ partisan considerations. The league urges the friends cf reform to press upon public attention nnd on congress the repeal of the lau-a prescribing fixed terms ofofHccwhich were designedto facilitate partisan changes without the odium of ex press and positive removal. Asa measure of relief from ono of the worst and most widely diffused abuses of the spoils system the league approves -principles ana objects of the bill introduced in congress at the present session to regulate thoapiwlntmont of fourth class postmasters by pailsini * their selection to bo mndeupon business principles- con clusion thoioaguoJ docia.rc't that ns the ne cessity of reform wtts litiver moio urgent , the league will prosecute Jvith nunjglhg energy its appeal to that matured opinion of the American people which reforms every abuse that menaces the welfare of the republic.

Mr. Bonaparte spoke of tbo complete demor alization oft Ho republican party in Baltimore because of the distribution -patro'najro , and said It seemed certain that the delegates to the next republican national convention. would bo pledg-cd ngnlnst Harrison. Adjourned to moot In Buffalo next year , At tno closing banquet tonight Mr , Curtis made a speech.

Governor Thayer arose with the entire company and was enthusiastically applauded. The governor said : "IIr. * President , and ladles and gentlemen. Perhaps after 1 had met yo\i yesterday jou thought you had gotten rid of mo ; but not yet. Since then I have been some threoliun- drcd miles In the country , had a good night's sleep , visited part of the day delivered an ad dress , and hero 1 am with you tonight.

[ Lauehtorand npplauso.J I am glad that you all endorse that and agree with it. And I have made that observation before today , and in your absence , and consequently quently I cannot bo accused of Hnttery , It gives mo pleasure to meet you tonight.

A gentle- ninnattcndcd tlio funeral of a deceased friend. Of course , ho was deceased , or ho would not have attended his funeral. Ho observed the undertaker and observed the manner in which lie conducted his pait of the cere mony. Ho was greatly pleased , and after all was over , meeting the funeral direc tor , ho snid : 'My ' friend , I have been greatly pleated -with the manner In whicli you per formed your duty on tbo occasion of the burial of our deceased , friend. It gave rae great satisfaction.

' The last observa tion I am led to commend to the favorable consideration of all you gentlemen [ laughter ] , for 1 hoard the asseitiori nmdo by a friend a few days ago that ho could not afford to illo because a burial was so expensive. You will pardon mo for this personal allusion which I ought not to inako. "Ibcliovo I am hero to respond to n to-ist , Mr. Chalrman-'Tho President of the United States. ' Americans are accustomed to re gard thoonico of president of the United States as the most exulted of any ootuntato on earth. L'crhaps our friends from the Canadian piovinces would not ngrco with this cubtom , as they are living under the British ( lag. Wo lion or and venerate tno queen of Great Britain and Ireland ; wo honor the position which slid holds. She rules by grace divlno , so It is understood , although all llvo by divlno authority ; tut in the ordinary sense in which that phrase Is used is , 'king or queen oromptror by thogracoof God. ' And it differs with this declaration that the presi dent of the United States rules by the graep of the .American people. The queen is sovereign ; the president of the United States is surrounded by tlio sovereignty of the people plo of tlio United States. " 'J'horo ' Is u difference between our systems of government. Sovereignty emanates fiom the hearts of tlioso who make and unmake thrones and kingdoms and create prlnclpallticsandpowersnndropubllcs. Uach one oftho pjoplolierols part of the American sovereign. Our government rests upon that principle sovorclgnity of the people , and not sovereignty of 0110 mun or woman. "TUo present ofllco of president li held by an eminent citizen : eminent for his so\cral virtues ; eminent for his patriotic services to his country in the time of his country's ' nood. Ho has proven himself to he a faithful interpreter of tno law , represent ing , as lie does , the majesty of th Uws. Ho is a ( gentleman of unquestioned Integrity and unsullied fame and dun-actor. I can say , also , that hla predecessor Inthathlgh ottlco is a citizen of unquestioned integrity and character.

"Tho Manufacturer" was the subject as signed to Mr. O. N. Crauoof Canaiidalgna , N. Y. , and ho succeeded In making- re marks quite entertaining.
