A BIMETALLIC PLEA. Chandler Advocates a Double '. System of Coinage. HE WAS SA1HWSTIC TO PALMIER. Hl a Hot Exchange of Words With Fetll(Tr I'redlcta lefet For the Re publican loir Vrn Hence If lie foc urn Are Xat Inaugurated. rWAfHliOTOS. Feb. 17. Senator Chandler's speech in the senate in ad vocacy of bimetallism was one of the notable efforts of the present session. The early part of the spech was a presentation' of the principles of finance, the senator arguing against a j single ktandard of either metal, silver or gold. He tracod the gradual demonetiza tion of silver, the cloning of our mints agaiiibt the silver dollar in 173, the efforts to restore silver, and the serious blow struck by England against silver in closing the Indian mints. But it re mained for fiecretary Carlisle, the sena tor declared, to strike the most fatal blow at silver, in issuing his" order that the government would redeem its paper obligation gold only. By that act Secretary Carlisle struck out of use a vast amount of silver and drew on the depleted world's Bupply of gold and gave the final blow to silver. From the effects of this low depth to which it has been reduced by the demonetiza tion of 6ilver, bimetallism must now begin its toilsome struggle upward. Mr. Chandler took up the fall of prices, particularly in farm products, resulting from silver demonetization. The senator declared that within the last 20 years there had been a steady fall of prices in all classes of property. Hie own convictions, that silver de monetization was at the bottom of thi downward, movement in prices, caused him to seriously doubt whether the era of restored prosperity was near at hand. He was led to the conclusion, he said, that prices had not yet "touched bot tom." This shrinkage in prices had been most serious since 18!M The value of property in the United States was sixty live thousand millions in 1890, now it was estimated at forty-nine thousand millions, a shrinkage of 25 per cent since 18S0. Our debts had not shrunk, but remained an inexorable charge. De ducting them, the value of our property was cut down to thirty-three thousand millions. Can this proceed? asked the senator, without widespread bank ruptcy? He was of the opinion that the gradual tendency was to leave debt ors without the power of paying their debts, until by a gradual revolution the assets of debtors were absorbed by cred itors. If.it had not been for the fortunate balance of trade in our favor during the past year, he said, there would have been a business cataclysm in this coun try which would have prostrated all in terests and produced infinite misery in our business and domestic affairs. It wan because gaunt famine stalked through India that trade was favorable to us, for this horror of the Orient had proved a benefit to us. For these reasons, Mr. Chandler said, turning to ward Mr. Palmer (Dem., Ills.), who sat near, he was opposed to such declara tions for a permanent gold standard as that enunciated by the Indianapolis convention. At one point Mr. Chandler caused much amusement by addressing himself to Mr. Palmer, who sat across the aisle. The New Hampshire senator had read a list of standard authorities on bimet allism, and then turning to Mr. Palmer he presented the Illinois senator a copy of the list, saying he felt It would be helpful to the candidate of the Indian apolis convention. Mr. Chandler said silver monometal lism had led to the defeat of Bryan The other element of the Democratic party had selected Palmer and Buckner on a single gold standard platform. It had resulted in giving to these estimable candidates iso.uou votes in a total of 14.OoO.OtX) votes. Nevertheless said Mr. Ohaudler, the assistance of these old-fashioned gentlemen in the election of Mr. MeKinley was in a worthy cause. Mr. Palmer remained in his seat across the aisle, smiling occasionally at Mr. Chandler s sarcastic allusions to him.. This, however, was but the pre lude to a sensational episode between Mr. Chandler and Mr. Pettigrew. the New Hampshire senator said Mr. Pettigrew had been sent to the St. Louis convention on a pledge that lie would suppojt MeKinley and "sound money." And yet within two weeks that senator had repudiated his pledge, had bolted MeKinley and a sound money platform and soon thereafter had come out as a supporter of Brvan. Mr. Pettigrew had entered the cham ber as this statement wad made. He advanced to his seat and interrupted. "Do you make that statement on your own authority or as a quotation?" he asked. I make the statement." answered Mr. Chandler, "taking it from the newrpaper reports which are nnder itood to have given a correct statement of the case." Mr. Pettigrew, with explosive em phasis, replied : "I brand that state ment as wholly and unqualifiedly false in every Dart. I have made that ex plicit denial before and have placed it in the record, so that the senator (Chandler) should know it is absolutely false." "I understand the senator (Petti grew) declares the statement wholly false. Doea he mean to say he was not lr a convention which named him as a MeKinley delegate." "I say," interrupted Mr. Pettigrew vehemently, "that the purpose of your statement is absolutely and wholly false." "Ah, the 'purpose of my statement is what the senator questions. Now I ask him whether he attended a conven tion favorable to sound money and was named as delegate by -uch a con vention?" "I was a delegate," said Mr. Petti grew cslmly. "Then I do not understand this per formance of the sentor," proceeded Mr. Chandler. "There is not so wide a difference between us as might appear He declared that mv statement was whollv false. He admits he went to the national convention as a delegax from a Bound meney conventfon." Mr. Pejdgrew declared that he had 'made his position perfectly clear before the state convention prior to his being chosen as a delegate. The incident was brief but was em phasized by the personal manner in which the senators addressed each other. Mr. Chandler resuming the thread of his remarks, spoke of the opportunities ahead of the Republican administra tion in checking the money power and limiting corporate influences. In conclusion he said : ' "I declare my belief that President MeKinley and the other leaders of the party, in their ad vent to power, may bv wise designs and - virtuous deeds indefinitely prolong the ascendancy of the Republican party in this country. This can surely be done by making it the party of the people to the final confusion and discomfiture of those pretenders, the blind leaders of the blind, who were so summarily on the 3d of November last, all thrown into the ditch together. "If, on the contrary, this is not done and the Republican party shall content itself with seizing and enjoying the spoils of office, surrendering unre servedly to the money power which so . effectively contributed to its recent victory, aonxueftcing permanently in the existing gold standard and treating bi metallism as a 'juggling humbug and the promise to promote it as a pledge never intended to be fulfilled. Repub licans will speedily find the tide of political battle once more turned atminst them and thev will soon cxchiiiipo places with their now sore, bleeding and prostrate foes. "To the coining triumphant presi dent, hopeful and over-confident, re joicing as a rtronp man to run a raco and to his chosen advisers soon to challenge all the adverse currents of the future, I cannot help saying: warn inply conoerninp the pending world wide controversy over the burning question of money : Unsettled ques tions par no heed to the repose of nations. "'Too wise today; 'tis madness to defer.' " THE BOY DIED GAME, Rat the Man Went to the Gallows Like a Coward. St. Louis. Feb. 17. Peter Schmidt and Sam Foster, colored, have been hanged at Clayton.

Then the lire department turned out, closed the rear entrance to the build ing with a stream of water and locked the front entrance, trapping the Rock Islanders. The latter chopped the door down, but firemen drove them back. They were prisoners for two hours and were finally forc-d to restore the rec ords to the building.

Greece has evidently gotten into a tisht place. The European powers, it is believed, have ordered her to vacate Crete. She has replied that she cannot reverse her policy, as she has gone too far. besides popular feeling in Greece will not allow it. Will Europe force her to retire, is the question. Another fact that holds Greece to her policy is the declaration of the Cretans that they are prepared to shed the last drop of their blood in order to attain their nation's aspira tions, which, they add, cannot be satis tied with anything short of complete union with Greece. The foreign ministers, the German representative excepted, have collect ively advised the government to recall the fleet and troops. London, Feb. 17.

Cecil Rhodes has appeared Wfore the committee ap- Tiointed bv oarliament to inquire into the Transvaal raid in Westminster hall. The hall was crowded with members of C'KOIL nHODEfl. parliament, counsel, ladies, reporters and others interested in the inquiry, in cluding the Prince of Wales and mem bers of the nobility. Rhodes read a long statement, which, he said, covered the whole ground, and recited the grievances of the foreigners against the Transvaal government. "After long efforts." the statement continued, "the people there, despair ing of redress bv constitutional means. resolved to seek bv extra constitutional means such change of government as could give the majority of the popula tion, t)ssessing more than half the land, nine-tenths of the wealth and paying nineteen-twentieths of the taxes, a due share in the administra tion. "I sympathized with them and as a landowner was largelv interested. As a citizen of Cape Colony I suffered under the persistently unfriendly atti tude of the Transvaal toward Cape Colony. "I assisted in the movement with purse and influence and acting within mv rights placed troops under Dr. Jameson's order in the borders of the Transvaal, prepared to act under cer tain circumstances. I did not tell the charter company in Loudo:i anything in regard to the raid. Dr. Jameson went in without my authority. All my actions were greatly influenced by my belief that the policv of the present Transvaal government was to introduce the influence of another power (Ger- manv) to thereby complicate the situa tion.'' Sir William Vernon Hareourt asked why, if he was acting within his rights in sending troops to the lmrders of the Transvaal, he had not informed Sir Hercules Robinson, the governor of Cape Colony, of the fact. Rhodes told him he would have to ask Robinson. Pressed bv Sir William as to what right he had to send troops to the Trans vaal frontiers -Mr. Rhodes replied : "1 have very probably done wrong, out there is another movement now which has much support, namely, the incursion or the Greeks. That s wrong, too, no doubt SYLVESTER SCOVEL'S CASE. The Spaniard Have Found Four Indict ments Acaintt Him. New York, Feb. 17.

Governor Hastings has consulted with Attorney General McCorniiek and it has been found that the state cannot be lionded to secure money to build the statehouse. .The executive favors the erection of new buildings, and says that the cus tomary appropriations must be cut down or new taxes must be levied to raise sufficient revenue.
