Cnicxoo , Juno 27. [ Special Telegram to
Tun Bnn.J After thirteen days nnd sixteen
hours of pretty warm going t'io great cow
boy race from Chadron , Neb. , to Chicato Is
done. There was a clatter on the rough ,
Btony pavement of Sixty-third street , then
came a shout os at exactly 0:30 : o'clock this
morning John Berry finished first. Thcro
was only a small crowd at the gates of
Buffalo Bill's Wild West to greet the tired
man who hud ridden n thousand miles in
record time for thu reason that very few had
any Idea that the leader would make such
fast tlmo the last part of the raco. Those
who nw Berry finish were surprised.
"Why , he's only a llttlo bit of a man , "
thcy'wild , He Is a llttlo man. As ho flung
himself from his horse In front of Colonel
Cody's tent In the inclosuro his smallncss
became even mere apparent. Ho is scarcely
ns tall as his horse , Polsotl , that brought
him the las : sixty-five miles'from Dokalb to
Chicago stiuo 11 o'clock last night. A gleam
of pleasure spread Itself over this llttlo man's
bronzed nnd burned features as Colonel Cody
stepped forwanl nnd shook him by the hand
with the remark , "You are the first man In.
You are all right , Johnyou ; are all right. "
Condition of Jinn nnil Iloiint.
The horse wns the center of ono interested
group and Berry formed the center ot at
traction for another. Of the two objects
the man wns the sorriest , sleepiest and most
tired. The horse showed no signs of being
sleepy , tired und sore. His coat was un-
rufllccl and without a bit of lather. Ho
showed ability of going another 103 miles.
On the other hand , the rider looked worn
out , but the gleam from his llttlo gray eyes
showed that there was abundant determina
tion In the small , well knit frame.
lie made a unique picture as ho stood
there shaking bauds with members of the
press , vacqueros and Indians. With all
Berry's exultation at winning the race , oven
under protest in spile of his sleepless nights
nnd days.bo turned to Colonel Cody ami said ,
"Look out for that horse , plnasc. " Upon
being assured that everything would bo
done for the animal Berry allowed himself
to bo conducted to the dining tent , whcro ho
cleaned a bit und tackled some chicken with
n gusto born of 1,0-10 miles of hard riding.
When ho llnlshod ho dropped on the sofu ,
tired out. In n second lie jumped up and
tald ho must go ana losk after his horso. Ho
went over to the stable and after seeing
that everything was all right ho took a nap
of a couple of hours.
Ilcrry's I/.mt Hundred
The story of his last division ride is sim
ple : "I left Dekulb at 11:05 : p. m. QJI Poison
and I kept pounding along as fast as I could
without hurting the liorso. When wo reached
Turner wo got a telegram from Dekalb stat
ing that Smith and Glllesplo were Just two
hours and thirty minutes behind , so I knew
J had the race sure. I fed and watered be
tween El burn ana Lodi. Wo took the
straight St. Charles road and struck Mayweed -
wood about 7 o'clock this morning and I was
afraid lor the horse when wo struck the
pavement for tour he would break down. Ho
nin't used to pavements , you know. I rode
the last IfiO miles in twenty-four hours. .
"Sorof Well I should ay I was. I did
not feel much like sitting- down but I mil so
sleepy that I can't talk. 1 have had no , leop
for ten days ton mount to anything. But I
feel in fairly good shape except being
sleepy. "
Berry hero broke off the conversation to
asic Major Burke if ho found any spur marks
on his horse and then said : "Some of the
riders say 1 rode iu a wagon but thcv are
llr.rs. 1 have ridden on my two horses Sandy
nnti Poison all the way. By the way , this
first horao carried ino ninety miles ycstor-
day , There was a combination put up to
beat mo. The rest of the riders got out in
front of mo at the start , but when Idaho
Fulls w s reached 1 was In the lead and
thov had to follow mo and they have not
caught up with mo.
tiliul It 1Vu Over.
' 'Yes , I am glad to win , for It is an honor.
Of course , 1 am glad it is over , but I am able
to go on and do uomo inoro riding if iicccs-
eary. "
At 11:07 : n shout announced another rider
in sight. In a moment Kmmctt Albright
rode In the gates on n little dun pony. Ho
surprised every ono , for ho was biipposed to
bo 'way in the rear of the bunch. Ho
brought in both horses , and the broncho ho
rode was in good shape in splto of the long ,
hard ride.
" 1 think I have won , " ho said as ho lay
down on the tent. "I am the only man who
brought in two horses. I am awfully tlrod ,
for I have been sick shire I loft Chadron ,
and 1 have not slept for live days and have
not eaten anything1 since yesterday noon. I
did not fool tired until this morning , when I
began to lot down. The excitement carried
mo through. Nerve can do a great deal. I
can't tell whcro I passed thu other boys , but
I know I passed them last uight , some-
vvhero.
.Storlot an the llnitil ,
"You can hear great things on the road. I
heard thut I hud no horses , was dead and ,
everything eUo , I could have beaten Berry ,
hut 1 knew ho was riding under protest , so I
did not try to. I think 1 got the ilrst
uionoy. "
Joe Glllcsplo rode Into the Wild- West
pi-omuls nt 1 : U1 o'clock on his horse , Billie
Shaffer. Fourteen minutes later C. W.
Smith arrived ou Ills horse , Dynamite. Both
men reached the rity early In the morning ,
but wuro unaccustomed to big towns and
lost their way , being unable to find their
wny to the show grounds. Albright did not
stop on his lust relay between Dokalb nnd
Chicago , but his animals , Outlay and Joe
Bush , wcro l'i ' splendid shnpo when stalled.
The former attempted to bite u stabla hand
while ho was feeding him , and Poison kicked
Major Burko.
As BOOH as the horses were stabled John
0. Shortall , accompanied by n couple of vet
erinary burgeons , made an Inspection and
ono of the horses tried to blto him. Ho con.
eluded that there was plenty of animation
loft nnd pronounced the horses nil right and
that there was no justification for the least
interference on his pan a * agent of the
Humane bociety.
Cudtm tlio Itotulti.
Colonel Cody was pleated with the race
and results. Ho declared that tlicro was oo oa
treat deal tnoro to tno race than the mere
first prlio , "It will show the world what
the native American horse Is worth. Euro
pean nations aio watching the result
of this race with Interest. It is' u
test of the hardiness of the broncho ,
and after the wonderful result of
150 miles in twenty-four hours , ,
1,040 miles In thirteen dajtt and sixteen
hour * , thcro will bo a rush for the American
animal , European nations will want Ameri
can bred horses for their cavalry. Of course
on the entanglements of the rid'- ! * and pro
test * I am uot iu a position to dot-Ida , but I
do y that the horses arc In splendid condi
tion. I was not surprised at thatelthcr , forit
Is Jiut us 1 said a fowdujn -thecowboys
know that thn horss Ii their bcit friend und
that its bent endravors can to brought out
by kindness und care. "
Geceral Jwhu M , Burke returned thU morn
ing from Iowa Falls , la. , full of enthusiasm
over the race. Ho wos'satlsflcd with the
race , but declared the riders to bo a "lemon-
ado brigade. "
"They don't drink anything but lemonade.
Why , I'vo bought a string of lemonade from
Iowa to Chicago and the boys broke mo. "
( llltctplo Might JIuo Won ,
Glltcspio has attracted much attention.
Ho Is r 3 years old. but ho has stood the Jour
ney well , nnd when ho discounted to.lay ho
appeared fresh. A boy who Joined Olllespio
in Iowa said that if Glllesplo had taken cnro
of lilmsclf and his horses hp would have
completed the Journey yesterday. In the
first part of the race ho staked his horses
out and slept outdoors. In an Iowa town ho
stopped to see n circus and amused the spec
tators by riding a trick mule. Ho has never
worn n coat since ho started. His son was
entered for the race , but the old man told
him logo back and tend the farm , ns ho in
tended to take this opportunity of a lifetime
to have some fun.
Distribution i.f the riindu.
Although Berry , who is an engineer and
surveyor for the Klkhorn Valley road , was
the first to arrive. It is not likely that ho
will bo awarded the cowboy § 1,000 Prise of'
fcrod by citizens of Chadron , as ho rode
under protest , having made the map of the
route. Besides this prlzo , Colonel CoJy will
distribute $ .V)0 ) among the first Ihrco persons
arriving. The Berry matter will bo settled
by the Chadron committee and the rldcis I I
themselves.
The race was started at Chadron Juno 11 !
at flilO o'clock , thus making the tlmo of the
race for the leaders a few hours less than
fourteen days. The distance is computed to
bo WU ) miles , but the riders claim that they
rode further by reason of loslnir their wny.
Those who started In the race and their
horses wore :
Kinmctt Albright , riding Outlaw and .Too
Bush ; J. II. Slovens , "Rattlesnake Pole , "
riding General Grant and Nick ; George A.
Jones , riding George and Romeo ; Doc Mid-

Smith , riding Dyiiamlte and Redwing ; Joe
Gillcsplu , riding Billie Mao and Billie
Shufor ; Joe Campbell , riding Boomerang
; R. Fisher , riding Nigger Baby and

A telegram was received from Jones and
Slovens protesting against giving the four
men who arrived a placo.

Sensation nt Atlantic , lit. , Caused by
ICnrry'M Sndilon IHtHppi'UraMrc.
ATLANTIC , la. , Juno 2T. [ Special Telegram
to Tin : BKB. ) If all reports are true , ono of
the coolest , smoothest and most successful
operations in fraud and dishonor has lately
conio to light in Atlantic and the neighbor
ing towns. Over a year ago J. II. Uarey ,
who lived in eastern PottawatUunlo county ,
began the systematic execution of a series of
chattel mortgages on cattle which ho diu
not own. In some cases ho took the mort
gagee out to the farms whcro the stock was
and showed him the steers , read the de
scription of the cattle in the instrument ana
thus allayed any suspicion of fraud.
It is said that in ono case a banker went
out a day or two after the mortgage was
given nnd asked to see the mortgaged prop
erty. Rurcy said that ho had not got all the
stock homo yet , but told the banker to get
into his buggy and they would drive round
nnd see them. They drove up to a farm
house. Hurcy asked the farmer how his
cattle wcro doing. The farmer said very
well. Then they went out to the pasture
and looked over a big bunch of steers
answering to the mortgaged stock. The
fact was that Raroy owned two or three of
those steers ana thus fooled the banker und
the farmer.
It is alleged that his operations aegregato
many thousands of dollars. All the banks
in Atlantic , save the Bank of Atlantic , lese
from $200 to fvSOu each. Jerry Munson is said
to have lost $ l.r.OO on Uarey and the Bank of
Lewis , u small sum. Both the banus at
Griswold are losers , and the Walnut bank
lent money on the mortgaged collateral.
An Avoca bank , the ( Jargon bank , and two
commission houses ono in Omaha and the
other in Chicigo , have all Dccn buncoed. The
Dickersons have also lost money by him.
It is furthermore alleged that in addition
to all this llarey has forged paper. One
week ago Karoy.absconded. It is said that
ho took the train to Avoca and has not been
seen o:1 heard from sinco. Frank Mncombcr of
Iowls and Squire Brlggs of Griswold hold
some of this forged paper. It is said that
ho owes Shaw A : Crombio a $100 lumber bill
and an immense amount of other debts.
In addition to nil his other escapades
it is said that Ruroy has deserted his wife ,
formerly Miss Anna Koyes of Lewis , and u
family of little children.

with the Great Northern as that
road has been making all aggressive reduc

roads will do the sumo thing.
The meeting of the Western Passenger as
sociation called for today was to consider
the Great Northern reductions exclusively ,
and ns no action could bo taken pending the
meeting of the transcontinental lines on Fri
day , the meeting adjourned until Friday

The Atchison road today Issued a circular
declaring that it was in favor of ono faro
excursion rates to Chicago from all western

Cabinet Officials Discuss the Situation at
Length.
CONGRESSMEN GIVE THEIK OPINIONS
Vnrlout Vlcwi on the Action of ttia Imllim
Government In Closing KB Minis to
tlioVlilto Motitl Orll lo
Will Not Talk.
WASIIIXOTOX , Juno 27. The cabinet today
spent two hours considering the silver ques
tion. As congress nlono can effectively deal
with the question and ns the president
showed no Inclination to cull congress to
gether o.irller than September , it was de
cided merely to await the course of events
until that tlmo.
From the comparatively few congressmen
in the city the following views have b ; n ob
tained :
Representative Alderson of West Virginia
said the action of the Indian government
greatly embarrassed the situation hero. Ho
was a free silver man , but ho believed the
conditions nt this time would have to'bo con
sidered In any legislation o'i the subject ;
that wo could not legislate on the conditions
of ten or twelvo.years ago , nnd'.hat congress
would have to act in accordance wlth-thlngs
ns it finds them and not upon theories. Ho
thought a great many of the silver men wcro
disposed to agrco to some compromise , but
the matter of detail could not yet bo de
termined upon.
Conip'lc.itcit Tor Silver 'Men.
Representative Meredith of Virginia said
matters wcro complicated for the silver
men. Ho thought UIG Sherman law would
bo repealed , but ho did not care to guess us
to the character of the substitute for It.
"This action on the part of the govern
ment of India,1' said Mr. Boatncr of Louis
iana , "throws a good many more dlflleuHies
in the way of frco coinage. I have no doubt
that had not till * been brought about Mr.
Cleveland would , during tlio next session of
congress , have had a free coinage bill pre
sented to him for his sanction or his veto.
I cannot tell und no ono can as yet , I think ,
how much the demonetization of silver in
India \ \ ill affect the situation. I have
no question in my mind about the
propriety of repealing the Sherman law ,
but wo have pot to have some means of
supplying money for trade and commerce.
The volume of gold Is not sunicient and the
deficiency has got to bo supplied by another
currency. I am not wedded to any particular
scheme , but what the people of this country
want Is sufficient monny tor business , and it
has got to bo supplied. A large number of
silver men who voted for the repeal of the
Sherman law last congress did so on t hell-
faith that ut the beginning of this congress
the 10 per cent tux on state banks would bo
repealed. For my part I saw no reason why
the t.vo things should not have boon coupled ,
und I was not willing to trust to the future
foraction on the bank tax , and I voted against
the repeal of the Sherman law. It is not
silver , per so. that the people wuut. but It Is
a sufficiency of sound money. I think that
congress should have been culled together
in April and now wo should got together as
soon us possible. "
Hopeful lor a Specify Settlement
Representative. Gates of Alabama says
that hc'is hopeful of a speedy settlement of
the financial question when congress meets.
He anticipates , of course , that tlicro will bo
considerable trouble and that members will
be inclined to hold firmly to the theories
they have been presenting all along- , but
that the common sense of the situation is to
do something to meet the conditions. Ho
thinks that the most logical and common
sense things will bo to repeal the S'lerman '
law , and the law levying a 10 per cent tax on
state bank currency and to provide for the
free coinage of silver at such a ratio as to
place it on u parity with gold.
A. J. Warner of Ohio , president of the
American Bimetallic league , said : "Tho
stoppage of the coinage of silver iu India is
the Inauguration of a new monetary revolu
tion or , rather , the extension to the far cast
of the revolution begun in 1672-73 in the
western world. It is the second act in the
same great conspiracy .ill is u movement deej :
seated und will be fur reaching in its cense
quences. I look upon this act of India , by
which the iratoways of the east are closed to
silver , together with the determined purpose
of the monomotalllsts of this country to re
peal the Sherman act , ns ovcnts fraught
with greater consequences to man than
anything thut has before transpired within
the century. What becomes now of the
claim thut the United States must stop the
purchases of silver in order to force ISiigland
to join in an international agreement ? Eng
land has determined , if possible , to force the
repeal of the silver purchase- law in the
United States. The closing of the mints of
Bombay nnd Calcutta is a part of the gi .
gantic conspiracy to seize upon the present
opportunity to establish finally and forever
the single gold standard , und to extend i J
over the world.
Critical In the Rxtrcmo.
"This is the critical Juncture. The turn
ing point is now. If frco coinage were re
stored in the United States it would bo tli
end of the single gold standard. On th
other hand , If absolute repeal of the prcscn
silver law In the United States can bo force' '
the work is done , it is therefore deemei
safer to stop coinage In India first. The 1m
mediate consequence will bo that silver wil 1
full and gold will increase iu value fastci 1r
than over. Prices will soon begin to fall in
India. The whole world in tlmo will feel ! l
thu effect of the consummation of this last
net of the gold conspirators , Prices will
continue to fall everywhere as gold rises. I
The end no one can seo. Kvory advantage
will inure to creditors nnd creditor nations.
ICngland has sot out to subdue the world 1.I I ,
not with arms , but with gold by turning
everything to gold. ss
"If tills movement bo allowed to run its
course unchecked there will bo line grinding
before the mills are done. The movement
is big with revolutions and is sowing the
seeds of anarchy. But will it be allowed to
run Its course ! That depends on the United
States. If the United State * allows Eng
land to forever dictate her financial policy ,
as she has done vlnco the war , then we must
take the consequences. But if the American
people have any independence of character
loft , they would not do so , and it should bo
evident to everybody that the United States
must finally act independently. The inter
national conference has gene with the
stoppage of the mints of India ,
Itccourso of the West ,
"What is there luf t to do , but for the west
ern contingent , under the lead of the United
States , to unite and act independently and
establish a financial system founded on
equity and calculated to secure stability in
values and ono which will kcop an oven bal
ance between the debtor und creditor , not
one calculated to rob with impunity the
debtor for the benefit of the creditor ,
"Tho gold standard , under this act of Eng
land closing the mints of India , becomes a
more unjust standard than ever , because
jjold will now increase in value faster than
ever before. A session of the American 111-
metallic league lias already been decided
upon for the latter part of August at St.
I/uis or Chicago. This plan will uot bo
changed unless congress should bo called to
gether ut an earlier date than given out by
the president. "
Secretary Carlisle , in response to a re
quest to express his views on t ha financial
situation as affected by the action of India
on silver , t > oltcly | declined ana did not care
to indulge iu speculation us to the future.

LONOOX , Juno 27. In 'tho House of Com
mons today Mr. Robert I-acey Everett asked
the government whether now , the value of
t ao rupee having been raised by the closing
a . " the Indian mints to the free coinage of
illvcr , compensation would bo given to those
persons In India whff hafl entered into con
tracts to pay rupees without knowing that
the frco coinage will be slopped and the
rupee raised. Will .theiwOpleof India , ho
further asked , bo cohstiltcd in the matter !
Mr. Gladstone reWleil that nil measures
modifying a state I currency may nffect
pecuniary values and influence current
transactions. Ho wfts not nwnro that it had
ever been the usntjo to make alterations sub
ject to compensation , and ho did not see how
such a usnpo could be beneficially established.
Continuing , Mr.lGladstono said ho was con
fident that the government of India was

IU. Hon. GeorRo J , Gosclien , who was the
chancellor of the exchequer In Lord Salis

of India had tha power to coin rupees as the
need arose. " *
Mr. Gladstone replied that If the
public had report was not clear on thu sub
ject. Ho would ask the Indian ofllca con
cerning It. Ho had llttlo doubt what the
answer would bo.
HUAIOKS 01' AN liXTKA SESSION.
CongrcsvrMnri It In Snld In Now York , Ho
Convened In duly.
New YOHK , Juno 27. While , nccordlns to
bank ofllcers , there was no change of con
ditions to warrant any muriccd Increase on
Stock exchange prices , there was not lacking
reports of a character calculated to Inspire
confidence , ns well as some facts which Justi
fied the belief that the outlook was brighter
today than it was yesterday. Ono
of the rumors was that the president
was going io call an extra ses
sion of congress | n July ito repeal
the silver law , the reason lor the change
from September to July being the action of
the Indian government in closing the Indian
mints to private coinage of silver. The
question was helm ? discussed , it was said , at
n meeting of the cabinet today. Another
rumor was that Drexcl. Monran&Co. were
goinif to import $3,000,000 of gold. Mr.
Morgan , when asked ns to this story , said
that us soon us ho imported any gold ho
would mnko the fuel known.
The rate of exchange today nmuly war-
rnntod imports of gold If there wcro enough
of cxchungc obtainable nt the figures quoted.
Brown Bros. & Co. sold demand bills at
Sl.81 , but it was not beliovcdthatithcro wcro
enough bills offering to uauso imports of gold
at this timo.
Payments by the Siibtrcninry ,
The subtre.isury paid out a largo amount
for interest today , its debtor balance at the
Clearing HOUSQ this morning exceeding
JMOO.OOO , most of which was for interest.
Early this morning $ . " 0,000 in gold was de
posited at the subtreasury for telegraphic
transfer to San Francisco , and It was ex
pected that SIUO.OOO . would bo sent In the
sumo way today. It was said also that there
were some Inquiries for similar transfers
of money to Now Orleans. No currency
shipments to , the country wcro reported
ut the subtreasury today , but the banks
shipied between 500,000 and e'03,000 to Sun
Francisco direct , and also various small
sums to bunks in Buffalo. Indications are
that currency is returning to this city from
the west. Ono bank received $250,000 from
a bank In Chicago today.
Generally speaking , the bankers today re
ported the financial situation as somewhat
easier everywhere , but ithey qualilleu the
statement by saying that' ' the demands for
rediscount , while no larger , were very gen
eral from all over the country.
No New York CloiiringrHouse loaning cer.
tificutes were issued , , today. Thcro was no
application for any.
Frederick D. Tappohr president of the
Gallatin National bank , and ctmirman of the
Clearing House loan committee , ' ' speaking of
the situation today safd : "Tho clearing
house balances weroemaH todny and well
distributed nnd everything looked easy and
comfortable. I think , ho continued , that
there will bo a great improvement in the
situation after the July disbursements have
been mado. I do not expect to see any irreat
shrinkage in values on the Stock
exchange. I do not sea what
any ono can base an expectation
of shrlnkuges on. In my opinion the shrinkage -
ago bus already taken place. The action of
the Indian government on the silver ques
tion Is tut most important piece of news
published this week. It leaves this country
as the only ono in which there is a market
for silver and is undoubtedly u strong argu
ment in favor of the repeal of the Sherman
silver purchase law. "
liiisnell tiaco'H'Opinion.
Russell Sago said today regarding the
silver situation : "I think the action of the
Indian government will have the effect hereof
of hastening the repeal of tllc silver law. I
consider thut law us 'done for' now. What
disposition to make of the great amount of
silver the government has on hand nnd to

A very serious state of affairs has do-
vcloped in Philadelphia. Several of the big
banks are practically unable to remit to the
banks of this city the balances duo them for
remittances , and Philadelphia exchange is
practically at n premium today In this city.
The Philadelphia banks say they are unable
to procure Now York exchange , and they
cannot get gold or currency to ship. One
bank in this city has $1500,000 locked up in
three Philadelphia oanhs in that way. Of
course it could send down and demand the
cash , -but It is unwilling to do so. The
probability is that there will bo a ln/gcr
issue of clearing house certificates in Phila
.1 delphia in u day or two , and the balances
duo in New York will , it Is presume 1 , bo
I'utu. Ail the meantime , however , business
men having drafts on Philadelphia will not
bo ublo to got credit for them hero except at
a pretty largo discount.

From remarks made by Land Commis

number of land oftlccs in thu country will bo
reduced about ; i third. Reductions will bo
greater in the northwest than indicated in

is certain that the Taylor Falls olllco will bo
abolished and possibly another. In South
Dakota , Yunkton and cither Mitchell or
Huron and possibly Aberdeen may
be consolidated into ono district.
In North Dakota * where it was supposed
there would be no change , Mlnot Is sure to
bo abolished , and this district , together with
Grand Forks and Devil's Like , are likely to
be consolidated. Possibly Fargo may bo

In Nebraska other sweeping reductionsaro
contemplated. Maps have been prepared
nnd the matter is to bo taken up at once.
Captain Hussler Is working to have an olliccr

Fiimnclnl Situation DUcuseod liy the Party
In Slnto Convention.
SAIIATOQA , N Y. , Juno 27. The sixth an
nual convention of the State Republican
league met here today. President McAlpino
presided and after the appointment of com
mittees read his annual address. Among
other utterances were these :
"Tho republican party seeks to establish
and maintain a system which will Insure our
absolute and unqualified credit at home and
abroad. The American dollar must always
and under all circumstances bo of the full
value , so that whether it appears in the
form of gold , silver , or a promise to pay , its
purchasing power shall bo the same.
"Our country at this moment is nasslng
through n financial crisis with far reaching
results und with tip immediate prospects of
solution. Business enterprise is at a stand
still ; banks and capital in every form are
hying wrecked and this is equally attribut
able , not only to various causes , easily deter
mined , but also to the lack of definite policy
on the part ot the administration ,
which makes it impossible for the
business community to plan for Its
own preservation. It is not enough
for the cnlef oxccutivo of the nation to coun
cil patriotism nnd quiet on tlio part of the
citizens when executive lethargy and inde
cision means the wrecking of private for
tunes and the shaking of the nation's credit.
Democratic liicoiislatciiclrs.
"Wo charge our democratic opponents \vith
glaring inconsistencies and with having gone
before the people in the last election pledged
to the performance of promises of which
there has been nnd apparently will bo made
no performance. Wo charge them
with having attacked , as danger
ous und pernicious , the financial
policies of the republican party which they
duro not repeal nnd for which they ottered
no Intelligent substitute. Wo charge them
with ineompotencyof the administration of
affairs ; with n desire to muko party capital
at the expenseof the nation and with n tim
idity which prevents thorn from righting
what they claim to bo wrong in republican
administration without offering a consistent
and bcnellclcnt substitute thereof. "
Secretary Hedges read letters of recret
nt their Inability to bo prcsmit from ox-Pres
ident Harrison , ex-Vice President Morton
and Hon. Whitelaw Reid , Kx-Prcsldent
Harrison in the course of his letter said :
"I huvo been acting upon a resolution
made before leaving Washington that
would glvo the spring und summer months
to rest und avoid all public occasions und ad
dresses. I hope your meeting will bo suc
cessful and I thlnu I may add without
transgressing the proprieties that there Is
nothing in the present business situation to
suggest any great gain to the country ns the
result of inauguration of democratic poll
tics. "
Itppulillcaim Will Ho faithful.
Kx-VIco President Morton says that pre
vious engagements prevent his attendance.
Hon.Vhlteluw Held , after regretting his
inability to bo present , says : "You find the
country in an unfortunate condition , The
duty of every ono of us U to do everything
in our power to help the president nnd con
gress to relieve the situation. Our party
will not bo unfaithful to thut duty , Mr.
Cleveland can confidently count on congress
and throughout the country on more support
on the first vital questions of the day from
the rouublicansjthaii the democrats ,
"But while loyally co-operating to meet
the oxUtlnu dangers , wo must not bo charged
with creating them. The present condition
whether ifnancial or Industrial , is neithoi
the choice of the republican party nor fairlj
considered the work of republican loglsla
tlon. In llnanco It is the culmination of an
unfortunate compromise , to which repub
llcans wcro driven after a majority of demo
crats and a minority of republicans had
passed In the senate , aud wore near passing
In house , u incasuie for the free coinage of
silver ut , say , u third above its market valuo.
Twenty-seven democrats and fifteen repub
licans had voted for this free coinage meas
ure iu the senate , whllo twenty-two repub
licans und barely three democrats voted
against It ,
Strugclo In the House ,
"In the house the proportions of the
respective votes wcro still more significant.
The effects of the compromise measure , to
which the democrat party with substantial
unanimity thus drove the republicans , was
bad , but the general confidence at homo aud
abroad , In the National Record nnd purpose
of the republicans , helped to minimize them ;
and though the tendency grow worse they
did not culminate until the shock came to
public confidence In the triumph of that
party , the great body of whoso legislators
had been steadily In favor of a fur worse
measure , and had been on the verge of ,
carrying free coinage two years before.
"Tho demand of the hour Is now , ns 11 has
been every hour since the 4th of March last ,
to end the uncertainty and lot business men
know whcro they stand. Congress , to which
body the constitution confides changes In the
tarilT nnd currency , could have been called
together. The delay for six months or inoro
arsucs on his own part , extraordinary conll-
dchco in the superior wisdom of the execu
tive for meeting u crisis which has spread
distress over iho country , or extraordinary
expectation of what his democratic congress
mi ht do.
I'nrpoic of Their I'm ty.
"A leading democratic congressman ,
Colonel Brcckinrldgo of Kentucky , speaking
in Mr. Cleveland's presence nt the last an
nual dinner ol the Now York Chamber of
Commerce just after the election , said that
It was the deliberate purpose of their party
now to reverse the policy which the country
had nursucd for the last thirty years. Why
not do It then ? Why sit still and look on at
the continued robbery which they say is
going out For four months now they have
tacitly approved It. For two months more
they propose to sit still without lifting n
hand to stop It.
"In any ease our duty is plain. By so
much us Mr. Cleveland In this unhappy
trial proves himself better than his party ,
ho will h.-neovor loyal nnd patriotic sup
port. But ho will have no assistance from
us in reversing the policy distinguished by
the greatest success recorded in history.
We _ shall stnnd loyally together for our
principles nnd for the country in the con
fident faith that the near future will wit
ness the vindication of ono nnd the restored
prosperity of the other. "
After the reading ot Secretary Hedges'
annual ivport the convention unanimously
adopted the report of the committee ou res
olutions. The resolution afllrms constant
belief in protection und views the present
disturbed financial condition us resulting
from the hick of confidence on the i > art 01
the people in the pivsont executive of the
nation und the dominant party in congress ,
fearing lest the president and the demo
cratic party may bo true to tlio frco trade
principles of the Chicago platform.
CMUHO of IttiHliics * DoprrHttnp.
The fear that the democratic congress will
destroy the protective policy of the lust
thirty years is the chlol cause of the busi
ness hesitancy and depression.
Continuing the report says : "We belleva
that the equality of the purchasing power of
every dollar issued by the United States
government should bo maintained nnd
neither the debtor nor creditor class should bo
granted legislation to further the scllish In-
teiests of either. Wnatover legislation may
bo enacted on that subject should have con
stantly m view the maintenance of tlio
parity of gold and silver. Wo doubt the
sincerity of the democratic party in
favor of an honest dollar , believing that Its
record on that question us shown bv its
representatives in congress nnd its platform
of 1S02 In favor of repealing the 10 per cent
tax on state bank notes rcpresant the true
position of that party upon the currency
question. The vaccilatlng course of Secre
tary Carlisle in dealing with the financial
situation calls for special condemnation , and
indicates the lack of purpose and intelligent
judgment , which the democratic party bus
always shown when dealing' with the sound
money problem. "
The resolutions note the hostility of the
administration to the pension system , re-
tfors to the unpatriotic lowering of the flag
at Honolulu and holds the administration re
sponsible for the anarchy which now
threatens the island nnd extctrls earnest ,
support to Mr. McKinloy.
The balance of the icsolutlon is devoted
mainly to state matters. Alter the transac
tion of some unimportant business the con
vention adjourned until tomorrow.

CHICAGO , Juno 27. CharlosiB.'Ton'd , who-
was ono of the jurors In tho'anarchlst trial ,
was seen today In regard to the alleged
boast of Bailiff Ryco , an told by Governor
Altgeld , that ho was "managing this case ,
and that thcao follows ( the anarchists ) ,
would hang as certain ns death ; that ho
was calling such men as Urn defendants
would have to challenge peremptorily and
waste their challenges on , and that when
their challenges wcro exhausted they would
have to take such men us the prosecution
wanted. "
Mr. Tndd with much reluctance consented
to tulk ubout the case. Ho said : "I cousldor-
thls an outrage on American citizenship. If
Governor AUgeld hud given the pardon as
an act of mercy It would have been different.
It would be bud enough In that case , for 1
feel very strongly against having the par
doning power in any way connected with
politics. But for Governor Altgold to con
stitute himself the judge and jury is an out
rage. "
Charles II. Ludwlg , another of those who-
s.it as jurors In thu famous trial , said : "Any
charge , by whomsoever madothat , there was.
anything unfair or prearranged In the
selection of the Jury Is perfectly preposterous.

could have been less so. At first , from a 1 ]
hasty readlne of the paper , I was Inclined to V
think they had got the wrong peoplo. Jjf
I thought that like most other

New YOHK , Juno 27. The news that Gov
ernor Altgeld of Illinois hud pardoned Noebo , '
Schwab and Flclden , was received by the
.anarchist colony of Now York with wild
enthusiasm. John Most said : "Governor
Altgeld stated nothing but what exactly wo
claimed at the time. Gary , Grinnoll nnd
Bonlleld und all the other rascals had the
same opinion all the time , but they felt' '
bound to do as they did for the benefit of the
capitalists. "
"Now is the time they ought to bo hanged ,
right awny. " This Most shouted through
his tooth us ho btrodo savagely around his
dusty quarters.
" God- the " ho shouted
"My - , , kicking up
n cloud of dust in his rage , "never 1ms been
committed a murder more wild than this
they know ; they know It all the while. I
write four or live columns for Die Frehot
which comes out tomorrow yes , it will bo
hot. This case was u clear ono from the
beginning. It is not a case of justice , but
r-e-v-e-ii-g-c. "
Superintendent , Byrnes declined to express
any opinion of the action of Governor Alt
geld.
"Anarchy is only In its infancy , " said Jus
tus II. Schwab , "but Governor Altgeld has
helped it on to maturity. My feelings to him
are of the kindest. Hero is the message I
sent htm last night :
1 "Dour Sir : Accept our heartfelt saluta

the public.
Referring to Governor Altgeld's reasons ,
the Herald says : "H is strange that Gov.
ornor AUgeld , who has been in ofllco six
months , bus Just mucle this amazing discov
ery. It is more remarkable that it was not
made by liny of his predecessors during
seven years , nor by the supreme court of
Illinois nor the supreme court of the United
States , both of which nflinncd the conviction.
Anarchy In this country never received a
inoro deadly blow tlrin when Justice was
meted out to the diabolical bomb throwers
who torrllloq Chicago some years ago. It la no
time to silence the warning given to
anarchists , now thut thu cable almost daily
brings news of anarchistic unrest in various
parts of Huropo , und wo oven read of a monument
ment erected to anarchy just erected ia
Chicago. "
The Tribune says : "Governor Altgeld of
Illinois has assumed u responsibility of tlio
gravest character In pardoning the throa
Chicago anarchists , His reasons for doing
so will not bear examination. "

Is headed : "Justice nt Last. "
Ho says , after welcoming the prisoners
from behind the bars : "Unfurl your blood
red banners , comrades , the world over ami
let us celebrate this feast of jubilation , for
wo have received powerful reinforcements to
our army ; light and victory shall be ours , "
In Hpoaklng of Altgold's action in freeing
the thrco socialists ho says that ho did no
more than his duty ,
"The aniirchlstH who were hanged on the
llth of November , 18S/ , were murdered.
Yes , murdered by capitalists , bloodthirsty
assassins and thu crime committed by the
state that sanctioned the execution was the
most damnable over commitcd and Is without
parallel. "
Ho then denounced Judge Gary , Assistant-
District Attorney Grlmicll und Chief of
Police Bonfleld , who ho says are monsters
und beasts who wnllocd in anarchist blood.
The trial , ho says , was. a farce , a fraud.and
was the direct result of n conspiracy planned
by the government and a band of scheming
millionaires who used the courts as their
tools. Closing ho says ;
" \Vo must have a reckoning with this
blood-sucking crowd ; but comrades , lot u
