Frowcn came back' ' today from the Interim
llonal agricultural congress at Buda-Pcst
bringing with him , to bo presented to Wll
Ham Jennings Bryan , a copy of a boo !
written by M. Bontmy , a delegate from Soutl
Itussla to the Federation of Agriculture
and with much formality dedicated to tin
Amcilcan silver candidate. It Is cntltlci
"The Agricultural Crisis. " and advocates bl
motalllsm as a remedy. Mr. Frewcn do
dares that of 220 delegates n very consider
nblo proportion sympathized warmly will
Bryan's struggle , practically nil those rc-p
resenting agricultural societies , and partlcu
larly those from Russia.
As your readers saw from the name
olgncd to the message sent to Bryan ( ex
cliiSlvcly through the World ) a few day
ago , the membership of the congress In
eluded many distinguished men from a !
over Europe. It was called by the Hun
Karlan government. One delegate , Herr vo
Knrdorf , leader of the free conservatlv
party In the Gorman Reichstag , and a neigh
bor of Prince Bismarck of Freldcrlcksrulu
reported a conversation he had rccentl
with the prince on the American pollttca
situation , as follows :
"Frankly , Kardorf , I am too old to g
to school over the currency Issue , but
recognize that , although I acted In ' 73 o
what I regarded as the best advice , in
nctlon wns too precipitate. In view of th
resultM which have followed. The fact tha
the agrarian party In Germany Is vigorous !
urging the restoration of silver weighs wit
me , and must weigh with any Intelllgen
government on the continent of Europe
The one class that we cannot afford t
estrange Is the farming class. It they ar
convinced , nnd they assure you they ar
convinced , that agricultural depression I
peculiar to these monetary changes , ou
government must review Its position afresh.

NK\V YOKK , Sept. 23. Tlio ilomocrntlo
stntc central committee liclil n Ions nml
heated meeting ftt the Hoffman house last
night. A sensation wns creatcil by the
appearance of Senator Hill , who nrrlved
from Albany late , bearing a proxy. The
contested cases were heanl ami the Hill
men were seated.
It was \ery nearly 11 o'clock when the
llRht over Mr. John Iloyd Thacher , the
nominee for governor , was precipitated by
the reading of his letter addressed to Chair
man Danforth , nnd denning his position.
The reading of the document was listened
to very attentively , nnd then John C.
Shcehan of Tammany Introduced n reoolu-
tlon calling upon Mr. Thacher to resign his
nomination.
In an Instant thtre was a tumult , n dozen
members arising to speak at once. Mr. Shce
han declared that Mr.Thacher , could have
given hla views upon the financial question
before the convention had he Intended to tto
honest.
Senator Hill then took the floor. For
thirty minutes ho held the attention of his
audience , skillfully avoiding nny reference
to hU own vlowb upon the endorsement ot
the ticket or piatlorm of the Chicago con
ventlon , but basin ; ; his whole argument upon
the ground that the candidate for governor
In the state- this fall should be a strong man
upon state Issues , nnd that there was no
need of forcing national issues Into the
campaign.
Senator Grady replied , bitterly excoriat
ing Mr. Thacher. The resolution was read
again nnd Senator Hill again stoke at
length , attacking the Chicago platform. "A
wan must not bo condemned for disagreeing
from the national platform , " said he. "It
has things In It that are In direct opposi
tion to all democratic tenets. I have no
objection to saying that there' are things in
the platform that no democrat can support.
To say that you support the ticket Is
enough. "
Then Mr. Hill went a little further. His
voice was husky and he evidently was over
come with his effort , but he still attacked
the platform. "There Is altogether too
much populism In the platform. Every
leader aud every man , with common sense ,
in the party knowa tills. Do > ou wont to
whip them out In the manner you would
whip that candidate. It Is political
cowardice. Don't do It. If we go down , let
us go down with our colors llylug and our
our leader"at our head. "
It was after midnight when he concluded
with an attark on the free coinage clause
and Senator Grady began his rejoinder.
Senttor Hill , in all , made sis speeches. A
number ot amendments were propcscd.
They were all withdrawn and a substitute
v.tis adopted by a vote oMG to 2. It follows :
"Hesolved. That a committee- five be
appointed by the chair to , notify , the ' can
didates upon the state ticket ot their 'noml-
uatlon , and that such committee report
back to this committee at a meeting to be
held on Monday evening , September 2S ,
the result of Us action. "
This is construed as a move to tide over
matters until after the Brooklyn conven
tion o the gold standard democrats on
Thursday. It is believed that Mr. Thacher
will continue on the ticket.
Senator David B. Hill said to an Asso
ciated press reporter today : "The final out
come of the meeting of the state committee
last night was n victory for those who arc
anxious to preserve cur state organization ,
no matter what the divisions may bo upon
national issues. It was a victory for those
who do not believe that a man Is not a
good party man uules ho swallows every
thing , or cannot stand upon a platform
unless ho believes In every statement In it
unqualifiedly. The stories this morning
to the effect that the resolution finally
adopted WCL for the purpose of sending n
committee to see Mr. Thacher as to his
views is unqualifiedly false. The resolution
adopted was the usual one , and merely asks
that a committee bo appolntetd to tell Mr.
Thacher that ho Is the nominee of the
party. No qualifications of nny kind are
Included. Mr. Grady offered a resolution
as a substitute for Mr. Sheehan's , anl ! which
read :
"Rcsolvrd , That a committee of five bo
appointed to wait upon John Boyd Thacher
and request his acceptance of the nomina
tion for governor upon an unqualified en
dorsement of the Buffalo platform. '
"I pointed out that such a resolution was
Impossible and when the debate had
progressed far enough a substitute was In-
trcduced , which read :
" 'Hesolved , That a committee ot five be
appointed to notify the candidates on the
sta'.o ticket of their nomination and that
sucn committee report back to the state
committee at a meeting to be held Monday ,
September 28 , the result ot its action , '
"Now , " said Senator Hill , "that means
what it bays and it took the place of all
the other resolutions. Under It the com
mittee has no power to project its views
at Mr. Thacher , but merely to announce to
him his nomination. Ho will do the talking , "
and Senator Hill smiled a satisfied smile.
The clerk and secretary of the committee
later \erlfied Hie text of the resolution na
given by Senator Hill. There were only
two votes ngalnst It nnd one ( Senator Grady )
not voting ,
While the Indications are that Senator
Hill hati thus fur controlled the action of
the state committee , It Is possible that there
may bo trouble at the meeting next Monday.
By that time Mr. Thacher bhall have made
Ills position clear.

CINCINNATI. Sept. 23. A local panel
publishes a signed article from Senator Join
Sherman dated at Mansfield , In which hi
replies to Mr. llryan and others who rcfei
to the "crime of ' 73. " Senator Shcrmai
said that many pages of the congresslonn
record show Indisputable proofs that the
clause In the net of 1S73 stopping the coinage
ago of the slUer dollar was not surrcptl
tlously nnd clandestinely passed througl
congicss. The senator reviews the hlstor ]
ot tliat legislation , showing that there was
nn unusually long agitation , not only It
both branches of congress , but also In tht
committees of both houses and also In tin
Treasury department before the bill wa !
I'revircd.
The senator says : "I have never been able
to see what motive could have existed foi
secrecy In this matter. On April 25 , 1870
when the bill was sent to the committee 01
finance by the secretary of the treasury , the
silver dollar was worth ? 1.0312 In the mar
kets of the world. Germany hnd not jcl
cold her sliver or ndoutcU the gold standaid
There was no Indlcntlu-j of the fall ot sll
vcr , and none could foresee th.it It was
destined to rapidly decline In price. No om
aakcd to have the dollar coined and na OIK
\VM opposed to Its discontinuance. "
The senator refers to the frequent tuer
B.igos between the treasury department am
the committee and the unusually largo nu.n
her of copies ot the reports on the bill nn >
the bill Itsrlf that were ordered printed foi
distribution. The bill was studied by mei
outside of congress during the three yean
nr more of Its consideration and many ol
these financiers were given hearings be
fore the committee. The secretary of tht
treasury. In his annual reports of 1S70 , 1S71
and I STL' , called the especial attention o !
congress to this bill.
In his report of 1S73 , the secretary said
"I suggest such alteration as will prcvctil
thp coinage of the sliver dollar for clrcu-
latlon In this country , dwelling upon hit
reasons heretofore at length.
This bill came to congress April 25. 1S70
nnd bccamo n law February 12 , 1S73 , ncarlj
three years after Its Introduction , durlnf
which time It was constantly before tin
public. The senator concludes his nrtlch
thus : "There was not only nothing bccrc' '
or surreptitious In the passing of the aci
of 1873 , but every step accompanying ill
origin , consideration and passage received ni
much publicity as could be given to n hill
But the silver dollar was out of clrculatloi
long before the law ot 1S73 wns enacted. 1
was a thing of the past , lost to sight ; con
ccivcd by Hamilton In 1792 , suspended b.\

ot the present generation only because sllvei
has fallen In price nnd Is deemed more
valuable ) ' ns coin than as bullion. Ncvci
wss a more unjust or unwarrantable charge
made than that the act of 1873 was passed
stealthily or with the object of concealing
any part of It from the public. "

WASHINGTON , Sept. 23. Senator Elhlns
at West Virginia Is In the city for a few
days , before starting again on lilt
stumping tour In West Virginia.
Mr. Elklns has made ten or a
dozen speeches In the northern part ol
the state , and in a few days will begin the
campaign In the southern , portion.
The senator has entirely recovered from
his recent in'dispBslflonIIe.rcpuillatcs the
Insinuations that.hd Is lukewarm ns to the
results of the coming election , nnd declaiet
that he will continue in the campaign until
the end , and will probably apeak In Ohio ,
Indiana and Illinois , and possibly othci
states.
Of his own state ho feels no doubt of the
icsult , nnd says it will give McKlnley c
majority of from 10,000 to 15,000. There Is
some disaffection among republicans In the
state on account of the- silver question , bul
this , Mr. Elklns says , will be more thai :
made up by the vote of the gold standard
democrats.
The senator has kept In close touch will
the leaders , and from the information he ha :
received expresses the hellcf that Majoi
McKlnley will have a walkover. "The re
publicans are certain of Ohio , Indiana ,
Illinois , Iowa , Michigan , Wisconsin , Wesl

"and the chances are favorable for Min

This action had been expected all the.
forenoon. First thing this morning General
Brooks rcceUcd full authority from Gov
ernor Mclntyre to act ns his representative !
In suppressing the disturbances In what
ever way he saw fit.
Just before dnvvn todny an attack
was made , presumably by the strikers or
tlu-lr sympathizers , upon the water
works located In California gulch about
two miles from town. A guard ot
thirty soldiers had been stationed
at the uorks. About 5 a. in. the pickets
saw a Hash on a distant hill , Bupfied to
have been a signal , and n little Itu r one
of the sentries saw dark forms crawling up )
the hill. He hailed , and was answered by
a shot. Several scattering shots were
Hied , buj. the attacking party , finding the
guard wide awake , drew oft without any In
jury being dcno on either side as far as
known , No hostile demonstration has oc
curred In town.
Warrants have been Issued for twenty-flvo
member of the Miners' union , Including Its
president , vice president , secretary and the
executive committee. Three of the men
landed In jail arc E. J. Dewar. secretary of
the union ; Eugene Gannon , member of the
executive committee , and Corner Richards ,
a number of the union who does not hold
any official position.
The authorities refuse to say on Just
what ground the warrants are sworn out ,
but say that the action Is taken partly on In-
formutlon and partly on suspicion. Tho.
prisoners arc kept closely under guard and
the sheriff will not allow them to bo in
terviewed.
MINERS REINFORCING.
DENVER , Eept. > 23. The Impression that
the presence of troops In Lcadvillo would
end the strike has boon dissipated by the
reports which 'reached Governor Mclntyrb
today from Lcadvllle. Ho IS told that min
ers from Aspen , Cripple Creek and the San.
Juan are quietly gathering at Lcadvllle and
that nt an opportune moment the strikers
will wipe out the entire national guard and
burn the town.
At 7 o'clock this morning Governor

tions to General Brooks at Leadvllle ,
giving that ofilcer full power to act na
his representative In suppressing riot In that
city and d.strict. General Brooks Is
specifically Instructed to penult no Inter
ference from any source whatever and to >
act with or without the co-operation of the
local authorities.
Lieutenant Byrnm , the United States of-
llccr attached to the governor's staff , waa
with him when the telegram was being
drawn up and on being asked if It gave
General Brooks military power sufficient to >
enforce martial law replied that it did prac
tically amount to martial law.
The governor has inquired , tinomclnlly , of
Brigadier General Whcaton , commander of
Iho military Department of Colorado , as t
what osslstance the federal authorities can
render In case ot emergency on a few hours'
notice. Colonel Mcrrlam of the Seventh In
fantry , stationed at Fort Logan , has been
apprised that his command may receive or
ders to take the field nnd his troops will be
ready when the official call comes. When
federal aid Is needed the governor will ad
dress President Cleveland directly , who , In
turn , will , through the secretary of war , or
der General Wheaton to act.
No further violence has been reported nt
Lcadvllle , but , as U Is known that moro
limn COO rides are In possession of
the rioters , us well ns Inrgo eup-
) lles ot dynamite , grave fears nro en-
tertnlned by both the citizens and the
military.
To glvo General Brooks the full support
af the entire state military force Governor
Mclntiro has sent orders to two Second
regiment companies , one at Lake City and
the other at Monte Vista , to proceed nt
nnco to Lcadvllle. This will place at the
