No matter what any man may think about our currency, whether its basis be of one of the precious metals or both, noue can deny that the result of the presidential election has given gratifica- j tion to and increased the sense of secur ity of every trust in the country. Nei ther is it to be denied that the pluto cracy and aristocracy of every European monarchy hails that result with joy. Can it be held by the thoughtful that a victory which strengthens the trusts and cheers the privileged classes around the glade is is the one that should please the pride and enccuraje hope of the pat riotic American, whatever his party may be? The action of England in agreeing to arbitrate her dispute with'Venezuela has leen recognized by other European Towers as a practical assent to the American interpretation of the Monroe doctrine French and German newt papers are at much pains to show that England assertsjMt. The experiment made by France in Mexico and its la mentable failures do not appear to have made a proper impression in that coun try and in Germany. But it would seem to be very unwise diplomacy to force all the American Republics into a position of greater friendship toward Great Britain. If ever the occasion shall arise to vindicate the ability of the people living on this contineat to take care of their own affairs they will give a good account of themselves. It is quite possible that the occasion may le precipitaied by tl e course of events in Cuba.

Now, that there is a prospect of its passage, a summary of its provisions seems desirable. It a temporary revenue bill. It would ex pire Dy its own terms on August 1st ISi'S. What revenue it would yield it is difficult to say. Mr. Dingley expect ed forty million dollars increase from it but treasury experts put the gain at low er figures. It takes wool ofall kinds off the free list and puts upon it a duty of six tenths as great as that of the McKinley tariff To the present duties on woolea good; it makes a like addition. It does pre : i . i . . . . vwij me same ior lumber in all its forms. It adds fifteen per cent, of the McKinley rates to the present rates the schedules A to N, including chemi cals, earthenware, glass, metals, manu lactures of wool and metals, tobacco, agricultural products, wines, spirits cotton goods, flax, hemp and jute, silks, pulp, paper, books and sundries. English experts in the erain trade calculate that Eurce will require from the Lotted Mutes a monthly average suddIv of 17.000.000 bushels of wheal until next July. For the seven months yet remaining this would imply a furth er exportation of 119,000,000 bushels. which is manifestly a great deal more than the country will have to spare, un less all calculations of the vield and re serves have been greUly at fault. Ex ports for thetive months of the crop year already expired have been close to 75,000,000 bushels, and the most liber al estimates of the remaining supply do not exceed that quantity. Most of the estima es fall much below 75,000,000 b ashels. The yield of wheat has reen variously computed at 400,000,000 to 450,000,000 bushels. Assuming the accuracy of the larger estimate, and that there was a: much wheat remaining in uncounted places on July 1 as at visible supply cen tres, the approximate yield and reserves made a possible maximum available sup ply of 545,000,000 bushels. Deduct from that abont 375,000,000 bushels for food and seed and 25,000,000 bushels for a minimum reserve to be carried in to the next crop year, and 145,000,000 bushels would be the maximum export surplus of the United StatfS for the crop year 1896-7. Many believe that this estimate is 20,000,000 to 30,000,000 bushels too high. But taking the most hopeful view that is admissible, it would appear that the United States have al ready sent abroad in the form of wheat and flour more than half the surplus that has been available for the crop year. In view of all the facts recognized by statisticians the world over, there, can be no room for doubt that Europe's requirements will this season more near ly exhaust the n serve stocks of Ameri can wheat than any recent year. Washington. November 2Slh, 1S9C. There is at least one Republican Senator who thiuks that the McKinley administration-will have to borrow money very eariy in its career, nothwithstanding th assertions of the party Stump speakeis and editors during the campaign that h would never, under any circumstances, do auy such thing. Senator Chandler not only thinks that ttie McKinley ad ministration will have lo Uuro money, but he has prepared a plan for it to do so, and ii is supposed that l.e will put it in the form of a bill, which he will into -His plan is in short to authorize the secretary of the treas ury to tKirrow as much money as may ie needed to make up the diif rente r.e nveen the government receipts and ex penditures so long as there is a deficit, the loams to be made payable in a short period. Mr. Cimndler seems to agree with the statements made on the stump by silver men, that the election, of McKin ley would meau among other things a further increase in the naiioual debt by the government borrowing more money, but other Republicans will favor ex hausting all other methods of trying to pull through before resorting te another loan in auv shape. Even if there was a Kepublican ma jority in the senate, they could not ac complish any tariff legislation at this sesiion of congress, unless some way could le devised of reconciling the wide difference of ooiniou among them as to what ought to be done. Ihere is reve nue legislation, and the project ot auu ing $1, a barrel to the tax on beer, which came so near being incorporated iu the Wilson tariff bill by the Demo cratic ways and meaus committee of the last house, has been revived and may be recommeuded iu President Cleveland's annual message. Tne iutlueuce of the brewers killed it when it was proposed tiefore, aud now in addition to tuat it will have to contend with the ippositiou of the high tariff Republicans who want to leave tue whole revenue question just where it is in order ti have an excuse for an extra session of congress. The vacant seat on the beuch of the court of claims which gossip hail as signed to one of the nieiu liens of Presi dent Cleveland's cabinet went to Assist ant Attorney General Howry, w hose oth cial duties have made him thoroughly familiar with the business of this ceurt Jud-e Howrys Ug.tl at.aioineuts fcl"; high and there is no personal objection to him, but if the idea advocated by a considerable number of silver men, of hanging up all of Mr. Clevelaud'6 uom- iuations in the senate, be cained out, his nomination will fail with all the rest. Whatever may be one's individual opinions, it is ciearly apparent that the action of prominent gold uemocraie. in trying to get the administration to re move Democratic ollicials in a number of states liecause they supported Bryan is uot calculated to wipe out the existing bitterness between the regular Democrats and the bolters. In the postotlice tie partment alone attacks are being made hv the toIters upon more than hlty presidential postmasters. It is not likt lv that auv considerable nutnler of these, or any other ollicials the uomina tiou of whose successors has to le coo firmed by the senate, will be removed because whatever may be the result of the proposition to take no action upon anv nominations, it is certain that the senate as at present constituted wili not confirm the nomination of any gold Democrat for a position from which man was removed for uo other reason III x v ABSOLUTEUf PUKE ltrjii u Hi IWmiI New York, November 30 In the Decern ir numlr of the '-North An e i can Renew" William J Bryan presents an article in which he discusses the re sult of the election as affecting thep'a' usof thesilv r question. The issue o which the election turns be desc.ibts a the greatest issue ever submitted t th American people in" time of peace The result Mr. Bryan declares to be tem porary defeat but permanent gain for the cause of bimetallism. Mr Bryan regards it as a significant fact that the silver sentiment was Strongest where the question had beer longes-t considered; that is to say, in ti e west and south. The gold sentiment prevailed in the eastern states, but even there, in Mr. Bryan's opinion, th cause of bimetallism made more rapid progress than any cause ever made ir such a short time. Mr. Bryan express ed his as.-urauces that te electjon can In- by no means regarded as a conciuslvt settlement of the questions at issue Mr. Bryan counsels the Republican par ty to remember that thousands of Re publicans have been held to their part; this year by the pledge that they will trj to secure iutern itiouwl bimetallism.

Snow fell on the 4'h of of the mouth and has not since disap peared, even for a day There is great suffering on the stock ranges and thous ands of cattle will be killed if the weath er continues cold. On the ranges west of the Missouri river temperature is from five to twenty degrees lelow zero and below zero at all points in the Dakota.. Reports from are run g nearly on time again to-night Farmers coming in from the ranges west of the Missouri say the loss to stockmen so far is not great, as when the storm broke the beeves found fair shelter in the valleys. The weather, however, is Still very severe, zero temperatures being reported all over Minnesota and the Da- kotas. Unless there is a decided change in temperature in the next few days the loss among sheep and cattle wilLbe large. as the streams are freezing over so solid ly that it will be hard for them to get water. Ihk Washington JW, itself a gold standard paper, says: The New York i...... ...... up, me iorK Jt.tentnff Sun, and other newspapers in various states, appear to find a deal of satisfac tion in the fact that the twenty-two Bryan states have a larger average c f i' literacy than the twenty-three McKinley states. We do not think it unfair to assume that the newspapers which institute this comparison know that the greater mass of the illiterates in the Bryan states did not vote for Bryan. The Evening Sun and the Hail and Erjrrtss . cannot be un aware of the fact that most of the illiter ates in those states are Republicans. So far as they voted at all they cast their ballots for McKinley and sound money. It is not their fault that they cannot read and write. They are the freed men or the sons of freed men. Id Maryland, Kentucky, and West Virginia the votes ot the black illiterates assured those states for McKinley. In sUes further south the colored men cast the bulk of the Republican vote. It seems 6lrange, in view of these facts, that in telligent newspapers will try to convince the ill-informed and credulous that il literacy is & characteristic of the Bryan vote. For oar part, we are glad to re cord to lh credit of both the colored il literates and the foreign element that they voted against free coinage. When the rush of orders slackened many began to thing business was dwindling, but subsidence of deferred orders is not decrease of business. Dis appointment is observed in the iron and steel industry because various combina tions have been and aie still retarding orders by prices which buyers believe cannot be maintained, and the same is true in boots, shoes and in a few- branches of textile goods. But business on the whole is enlarging and the em ployment of many more hands will ex tend purchasing power. The settlement of the window gless controversy, start ing many sand hands, and the collaj.se of some imjortant iron combinations with the same effect give promise of more businesss.

In addition to the par ty caucus there will be a silver caucus, attended by the poptiliste, the silver Re publicans and the Democrats, and it is expected that an agreement will be reached under which the silver senators' will act together in al) matters concern finance. While it it not thought that the bolting gold Democratic senators will caucus with the Republicans it is believed that they will vote with them upon financial questions. The Republicans of Washington are in a state of mind because a gold Dem ocrat has been slated for chairman of the McKinley inauguration committee, and they have made a vigorous protest against his being given the place, both to Mark Hanna and to McKinley, and the lfcal Republicans are right, too; but inasmuch as the gold Democrat who has been promised the place was a big con tributor to Mark llanna's campaign fund their protest will probably count for nothing. It is customary to have all parties represented on the inaugura tion committee, but if this gold Demo crat gets what he paid for it will be the first time that a chairman of the com mittee has not been a member of the party which elected the president, m pa 8' Bombay, Nov. 29. A dispatch from Baroda, capital of thet-tateof that name, gives the details of a fatal accident which occurred there to-night. The earl of El gin, viceroy of India, arrived at Baroda this evening on a visit to the gaikwar. or native ruler of the 6tate. The inhabi tants turned out en masse to welcome the viceroy and to see a display of fire works in his honor. The display- was given in the park of the gaikwar, which was open to the public. Everything passed without incident of note until the end of the ceremonies Then the cro-vd made a rush for the park gates, which were so narrow that they soon became jammed with people. Those behind, not knowing the cause at the exit, pressed forward until the crush at the gates was terrific. A number of persons were squeezed to death, while others, who lost their footing in the surging mass of humanity, had the life trampled out of them or died from suf focation. When the crowd was finally cleared away it was tound that twenty- nine persons had been killed and thirty- nve more or less injured. Governor-elect Taylor, of Tennes s;e, writes a 6avage letter denouncing Republican cries of fraud in connection with his election. He says he would not hold an office obtained by fraud, and that the charges are unjust, untrue and a slander on the people of the state. The governoi concludes: "I won a glorious victory. I will be inaugurated governor of Tennessee. I think I will make a good governor, because I have been governor twice and have been lieu tenant governor in my own family for 18 jears." Fargo, N. D., Dec. 1. Fuller reports of the late storm show it to have been far more serious than was at first antici pated. With two rotary engines work ing out of Fargo, on the Northern pa cific, since Saturday morning, No. 4, snowed in five miles east of Valley City, was just reached at IU o clock yesterday morning. Only half a mile was cleared Sunday. Drifts in the cuts are six to fourteen feet deep and frozen like ice. mixed with sand. Dynamite is used to loosen it up. The southwestern branch to Lisbon and Edgely is still frozen up, and people in towns along the line are out of wood and coal, and there seems no proepect of opening up the road for three or four days. Small towns along the main line are also out of fuel. Near Oriska there was a terrible collision be tween 6now plows, in which one man, a snow shoveler named Hans Hanson, of Mapleton, was instantly killed. The fireman and two section men were seri ously if not fatally injured. I'onllict Over an Historic tirafejanl. Cincinnati, Dec.

The Har rison heirs claim that the cemetery in question is their property, and they have given notice to the township trustees that they will be held responsible if they attempt any act of ownership. It is said that the Harrison heirs propose to remove to the vicinity of Harrison e tomb the remains of John Cleves sym mes and other historic occupants of the cemetery, aud then sell the cemetery for town lots, using the money thus ob tained to improve the resting place of the distinguished dead.
