Spoalcing of Sherman's r0cntsueeah
uguinst silver, Senator Stownrt said:
"Mr. Sherman misreprfleonts the
miners if he is correctly reported. It
is not truo that thoy ovor asked for or
receivwl more ihim tho marlsol value
for thoir bulHou. Under tho Bland
not, which trns in forpo from 187? to
181)0, th Government bought silver at
its marltot iii'o colustl ij -issued cer
tificates thereon at its coiu value and
mado a net profit according to tho
atatomont of tho Director of tho Mint,
DtfrfcTO.OOO.QOO. Under tho act of 1890,
wliich repealed the Bland act, the Gov
ernment receives 4,000,000 ouncea of
silver bullion per month and issues
thorofor legal tender Treasury notes
for its market value,
"No mosey rawed by taxation is used
in the tmrohaae of tilvar, but letal ton
dor Treasury noteii ivre iue3 by the-;
Government iu exohaugo for the bul
lion for ito market value iugold noth-
finf more, notlung leas. The position
of Mr Sherman in Hunting the coinage
and making a silver dollar Worth as
inueh a a gold dollar, by a promise of
redemption in gold, is absurd. Under
auoh au rrajBgeittiit silver is mere
credit money and' no better than paper.
Why go to the expense of miMJ)tg diver,
when paper will tumwor th iame pur
po?? before nlv!r vraa demonetized
botii goH and silver were ijtiouey of

-- A world special from Washington
says : A member of tho diplomatic
corps who has recently returj.ieti from
Europe stated to-day that whiio ho was
abroad to heard it charged in several
European capitals that Minister Egan
had btfen heavily bribed by Balmacoda
to provonjt the United states Government-granting
any recognition to tho
Congressional party. Tho informant
declared that adraftfor$100,000drawn
by the Dicbttor on his agonts in Lon
don had boen traced almost into tho
hands of Egim?
It could not be conclusively proved
that Egan had received tho money, but
the chain of circumstance seemed suf
ficiently strong to those who had
knowledge of the transaction to warrant
the belief that the United States Minis
ter to Chile was tho beneficiary of Bal
mucoda's draft.
It has been repeated and ru-rejieatod

Prof. Harrington, the Chief of the

of which persona living pt a distance

By'repeating (Sacli coftiblnaUoa

such as may arise from variable winds
