tary's Defense Mr. Gibson is Safe at
Ills Home in Peoria.
Chicago, Feb. 16. Secretary Gibson, of
the "Whisky Trust, has been indicted by the
grand jury, and to-morrow morning, barring
flight, will probably be again arrested and
compelled to give bail in the State courts, in
addition to 520,000 bonds already piled up
against him.
The most important witness was T.S. De
war, the United States gauger, who, it is al
leged, was approached by Gibson with the
scheme to blow up and burn the establish
ment Alter Special Agent Brooks had
told the jury o( his work in unearthing the
conspiracy to destroy the distillery and De
war's part in it, that person displayed such
a mass of damaging evidence
against Gibson that little if any
was needed afterward. Dewar had
the letters said to have been received from
Gibson, and also the bottles of fluid and the
infernal machine alleged to have been sent
to him by the secretary. An experiment
was made with the fluid in one of the vials,
and it burst in a bright flame as soon as
poured out ou a piece ot paper. The fluid
was sworn to be precisely the same as was
taken from the valise carried by Gibson the
morning of his arrest.
The Board of Directors of the Distilling
and Cattle Feeding Company has made a
statement, giving their reasons for believing
that the secretary of the Trust is guiltless of
the crime charged against him, and enclos
ing a copy ot his resignation. The pur
chase of 50 pounds of dynamite by Gibson a
short time ago, is explained by Mr. Wool
ner, who says that he bought it to clear out
boulders and stumps in a tract of land he
had purchased,
A dispatch from Peoria says Gibson re
turned from Chicago early this morning. He
left Peoria last Saturday, and to avoid re
porters got off at Twenty-second street in
Chicago, and took a carriage to his destina
tion. He still adheres to the story that
the fluid in his satchel was an anti-septic
which he and three others were to manu
facture. ENGLAND AND OPIUM.
Tremendous Pressure Brought to Bear to
Keep the Drag Out of India.
The Chautauquan.
The eyes of Christians in the East are now
turned toward the fate of the opium treaty
between England and China. The time is
drawing near when a revision is to take
place, and when it is ts be decided whether
England is going to continue the crime of
sending opium to China, or will resolutely
yield to the humane and Christian sentiment
of the whole world and put an end to it.
There is no want of effort in behalf of the
most advanced course in this great crisis.
The Indian missionaries are practically a
unit in demanding a flat and uncompromis
ing withdrawal of that part of the existing
treaty which relates to opium. Petitions are
being circulated and signed in both China
and India. A similar petition is signed by
English and Scotch civilians resident in
India, Already many of the most thought
ful English residents in India are raising
their voices against the enormous wrong.

PEOTESTING AGAINST FBEE COINAGE.
Representative New York Business Men
Before the House Committee.
Washington, Feb. 16. The House
Coinage Committee to-daygave a hearing on
the silver question to a delegation sent here
by the New York Board of Trade and Trans
portation. G. Waldo Smith said there was
nqt a single banker in the board, every
member being either a merchant or manu
facturer. Mr. Smith said he was also Presi
dent of the New York Wholesale Grocers'
Association, and that both bodies were
utterly and .entirely opposed to any silver
legislation at present, believing it would be
dangerous, unfortunate and unwise.
He then presented them a memorial
adopted by them at its last meeting. This
memorial declared that free coinage would
demonetize gold, and expressed a belief in
au international monetary agreement being
secured soon. W. L. Trenholm and E.
Ellery Anderson also spoke against the free
coinage of silver. Mr. Anderson presented
the protest of the Cooper Union meeting
against the Senate silver Dill, and the meet
ing adjourned.

and the high character of the goods have taken the fair sex by storm.
We didn't expect such a rush at the start, but the ladies seem determined
to popularize this department all at once. Their confidence in our
ability to please is fully appreciated and no effort will be spared to suit
the tastes of alL Just glance at this list; every article warranted to be
exactly as advertised:
