.MILLS FOR SOUND -MONEY.
The Texan Senator Comes Out Against
Free Goinage.
Washington, Sept 11. Senator
Roger Q. Mills of Texas is one of
latest converts to the anti-free coin
age cause. Ia a communication to
the chairman of the Democratic
state committee of Texas he comes
out squarely and vigorously against
the ratio of 16 to 1 by the United
States independently of the other
commercial nations of the world.
He contends that in taking this
stand he is following the example
and teachings of the fathers of the
Democratic party and of its greatest
leaders in recent years.
In the course of his letter, Mr.
Mills says that he advocated free
silver coinage as long as he could
see a prospect of keeping both in
circulation, but the continued fall in
silver and the abandoment of it by
other nations forbade hope of con
tinued silver circulation. No one
nation could hope to succeed against
the world. He continues: "The ad
vocacy of unlimited coinage at 1C to
1 is based chiefly upon the argu
ment that increased coinage of sil
ver will increase the prices of all
commodities. That would be true
of the increased coinage of all other
countries kept pace with ours. But
increasing the volume of our money
will not increase the prices in other
countries whose volume we increase.
The proposition is not to be disput
ed that the increase of currency, all
other things being equal, raises
prices jwherever the money circu
lates. But prices are not affected
in 'any country where the money
does not circulate. The opening of
our mints to the unlimted coinage
of silver will increase prioes in the
United States, but not in Europe.
As the pi ices of commodities rise
here, the value of the dollar falls
here, in precisely the same propor
tion. The price of the gold dollar
which is the common measure of val
ue, remaining the same in Europe,
it would go to Europe, because it
would buy more commodities than
here.'
Mr. Mills giyes the history of
past movements of the kind and de
clares that all failed signally. He
quotes from the views of Democratic
leaders in the past and gives many
facts and figures, closing as follows
"In the discussion of the financial
question we should examine it in all
its features. We should settle the
bond and banking question. They
are all parts of the same system and
in the settlement of one we should
settle all. For myself, I favor the
payment of the publicly debt as
rapidly as possible, and I am wholly
opposed to borrowing money by the
ale of interest bearing bonds in
time of peace. Non-interest bearing
Treasury notes may be issued to
tide over temporary deficiencies in
the revenue, and they may be called
in and cancelled as loon as
the Treasury should be relieved by
the incoming revenues. Gold, silver
and Treasury notes,in my judgment
constitute a perfect monetary circu
lation, and I am opposed to any leg
illation that will supplant them.
am glad to see the interest which
the people of Texas are manifesting
in the discussion of these important
subjects. DisBCuaion will give in
formation and enable the voters to
reach a right conclusion. When the
majority speaks, their decision must
be the decision of all, until it is re
versed. I hope we may be able to
agree among ourselves as to tha po!
icy that we should have settled by
federal legislation, but if we do not
I am sure we will agree on all the
essential principles of free govern
ment, and to keep these and trans
mit them to our posterity as they
were transmitted to us, we must
stand by our party organization and
support its standard bearers against
all comers."
BLOODY KENTUCKY ELECTION.
Fig Ms at LexiiiKtoi:
-One 31an
FatHlIv Shot.
Lexinjrtoc, Kv.. Sept. 12
-Tbis
Las tten the bloodiest primary
election day seen in Lexington for
many years. The regular democrat
ic primary for municipal effieere,
which was LelJ o;i tLe 22d of last
month, resulted in a tie between H.
T. Duncan and J. B. Simrall, candi
dates for mayor. The democratic
committee decided to run the tie
off in race horse fashion. The cam
paign for the past three weeks has
been one of unusual bitterness. Up
to last night Mr. Duncan confined
his abuse to Simrall'a friends, but
he appeared in a card this morniDg
in which he referred to Simrall in a
manner that exasperated many of
the latter's followers. To further
add to the favorable conditions for
trouble, many of the saloons kept
open, which is contrary to the Ken
tucky election laws. As a result
there was an unusual amount of
drunkenness and the fighting began
earlier in the day. Personal en
counters took place at nearly half
the voting precincts, but although
many weapons were drawn, none
were used.
The worst fight before nightfall
was in the county clerk's office. A
lot of hoodlums tried to make their
way into that office while the count
was going on, and the deputy clerks
had to knock seveial of them down.
At 7::?0 o'clock to night ou Lime
stone street, nenr main, George
Darnell a strong Simrall man, yelled
lustily for Simrall, the latter having
been declared the winner of to-day "a
primary by 12 votes. His yelling
incensed Dick .Nugent and John
MacKenna, Duncan men, and after
considerable quarrelling they went
toward Ed Graves' saloon, shortly
returning in company with Graves,
also a Duncan man. The quarrel
had drawn a tremendous crowd and
when Darnell saw MacKenna,
Graves and Nugent coming after
him, he ran into a barber shop on
Limestone street, directly opposite
Graves' saloon. Graves and his two
companions iouoweu mm in ana a
boy named Will Perkins, who lives
on Pemberton avenue, says he saw
Graves shoot him in the back. A
gentleman standing near the door
of the barber shop saw Graves, Mac
Kenna and Nugent rush in and saw
Graves run out with a smoking pis
tol in his hand, which quickly trans
ferred to his hip pocket and ran
down the street. There was several
police officers present trying to quell
the disturbance when the shooting
took place, among them Patrolman
Jenkins. Darnell said he thought
Jenkins had shot him, but Deputy
Frank Rogers, Dr. Barrow and Dr.
Witherspoon examined the officer's
pistol and found it had not been
fired. Frank Gill, who was with
Darnell and who was knocked down
in the melee and afterward arrested,
says Dick Nugent fired the shot.
Darnell was taken to the Protestant
Infirmary, where at a late hour to
night his condition was critical and
a minister was sent for.
Patrolman Jenkins has been ar
rested and has given bond. Graves
and Nugent will be arrested before
morning. At midnight Darnell was
paralyzed and his doctors say he
cannot live.

McKinlej'a 5nnns:fie!(i Speech.
Cincinnati, O., Sept. 11. The
political stnsation of to-day was the
comments made among politicians
upon the pronounced utterances of
Gov. McKiniey yesterday in favor
of cx-Gov. Foraker for United
States senator, and his urgent plea
that special attention be given to
the election of the legislature. Those
who are accustomed to reading be

part cf a combination that is of na
tionai interest, ana mat among
other things it means that Ohio will
be a unit for McKiniey for president.

The Hazix'. Editor.
Moses P. Handy in the Chicago Times-Herald.
The Sedalia Buzoo is a paper that
really exists, although many people
doubt it.just as many used to doubt
whether there was really any such
place as Oshkosh or Kalamazoo.
Sedalia is flourishing town iu Mis
souri, and the Bazoo is a good pa
per published there by Colonel
Goodwin, a unique type of South
westerner. A few days ago, at a din
ner at the American Newspaper Pub
lisher's Association in New York
Colonel Goodwin followed Charles
A. Dana in the speechmaking. He
said:"I am mighty glad to meet Mr.
Dana and to hear him talk. I ad.
mire him and his paper very much
but have always had a grudge
against them both. One day the
Sun had an editorial on 'Plural
Wives," which seemed to me to be a
pretty good thing. So, being short
of editorial matter that day, I just
scissored it and slapped it into the
Bazoo. During the next few days I
had to barricade my office and keep
my revolver out of the drawer
There was constant procession of
indignant men who called me to ac
eount for making personal reflction
on them. I had to come out the
next week and explain that the arti
cle was from the Sun, and was only
aimed at Mormons. That taught me
leBson. Now I always credit every
thing 1 tate irom otner papers es
pecially what is likely to hurt any
body's feelings."
Weeding Out the Unsafe.
Jefferson City, Mo., Sept." 12. A
large proportion of the building and
loan associations of the State are in
a fair way to get themselves involved
into a lot of trouble by failing to
heed the law requiring them to file
semi-arnual reports with Chief Su
pervisor H. L- Granny. The date
for filing the first semi-annual re
port under the new law, was August
3-1, and twenty days was allowed
after that time. Thi3 limitation ex
pires September 19, and so far, of
the 350 cf this kind of corporations
in the State, only about a dozen
have sent in their reperts. After the
19th of September the delinquents
will be subjected to heavy penalties
for failing to comply with the law.
At present Supervisor Gray has

C3
trouble Fteru to be that there are
tou many of this kind of corpora
tions in some places in the State,
and the department will do excel
lent work in weeding out the weak
and unsafe ones.
TLe new luw relating tu building
and loan associations undertook,
among other things, to provide for
the consolidation of such companies.
The law was vaguely drawn and
acking in details. There were two
cases in which corporations desired
o consolidate, and the questions
involved demanded interpretation
or government in the future. Sec.
retary of State Lesueur requested
the oj inion of Attorney General R.
F. Walker on the subject. The
opinion was filed to day. The at
torney general holds that the con
sent of every stockholder of a build
ing and loau association is necessary
to legalize a consolidation, for the
reason that such consolidation
changes the organization to which
the stockholder has reduced his
property and with which he has
contracted, and a Legislature can
not authorise a portion of the ruem-
bTH of a corporation, no matter
what the portion may be, to take
charge against the will of a minori
ty, because such act would impair
the obligations of a contract.
Spaniards Badly Beaton.
Key West, Fla., Sept. 12 Ad
vices received from Cuba by the
steamship Mascotte are that a great
battle has been fought near Camague
between insurgents, under Maximo
Gomez, and the Spaniards, under
General Mallo. The battle lasted
for forty-eight hours, and the Span
iards were repulsed with heavy lose.
It is reported over TOO Spaniards
were killed and wounded. When the
news reached Havana it caused
great excitement at the palace.
Roloff and his band have been
busy during the past week, having
blown up a troop train near Santi
ago de Cuba and a bridge near
Sagua. Spaniards admit tt at the
train was blown up, but claim that
only five men were killed. Advices
received, however, state that nearly
100 soldiers were killed.
Tha harbor of Havana is almost
deserted. Not a ship, save Spanish,
was theie when the Mascotte left.
For Pietzel'g Murder.
Philadelphia. Sept. 12 H. H.
Holmes, the notorious insurance
swindler, was to-day indicted by the
grand jury for the murder of B. F.
Pietzel, whose mysterious death in
this city a year ago and the sub
sequent collection of S10.C00 insur
ance on his life for Holmes, led to
the unveiling of the latter's enmi
nal record.
Holmes is now in prison here
awaiting sentence for swindling the
insurance company to which charge
he pleaded guilty, hoping thereby
to escape the detection cf his graver
crimes.
The district attorney will ask for
a speedy trial in this city. Indict
ments for murder have also been
brought against Holmes in Toronto,
Indianapolis and Chicago.
A Wrathy Revivalist.

Cticago, III., Sept. 11. A local
paper says: Out in Englewood is
forming a troop of cavalry which, as j
soon as it has been joined by two!
batteries and a regiment of foot, is '
to proceed to Cuba under the com-j
maud o: L G. Andrews aud there
join the insurgents. Mr. Andrews,
who is recruiting the cavalrymen,
6aya that ho has 400 Chicago men
who aro are pledged to go to Cuba
and that $75,000 has been subscrib
ed by three wealthy residents of this
city for the fitting out of the expe
dition, the payment of the recruits
and the landing of them in the
struggling islands. Three men, Mr.
Andrews says, have been in com
munication with wealthy Cuban
patriots who have agreed, iu pay
ment for the aid furnished, to deed
valuable lauds to the Chicagcans
who extend the aid.
According to Mr. Andrews, the
men will be drilled when they reach
the South. The batteries and the
infantry, he says, will be recruited
in Kansas City, Mo.
Rabid Ponr Bites a Boy.
Pittsburg, Pa., Sept. 11. A pony
owned by Thomas Allott, of Idle
wood, died of hydrophobia last night
after injuring three persons. It is
supposed to have been bitten by a
mad dog while it was in a pasture
field. After it had gone mad Mr.
Allott went into the stall where it
was kept, and it tore his coat and
shirt off with its teeth. It also kick
ed him in the left side and hurt him
so badly that he is now in bed. His
young son George, who owned the
animal, tried to do something with
the pony and it bit him on the
shoulder. Hydrophobia is feared
in his case. John Toei a neighbor,
was kicked in the breast by the uui-
mal. It was frothing at the mouth
and beat its head against the side of
the stall and tore the fiesh off its
legs and breast before it died.
Bob Masterson is now the body
guard of George Gould The mil
lionaire has a wholesome dread of

twenty eight dead men to his credit.
Masterson is said to look very much
like Vice President Stevenson. He
keeps a close watch on his patron at
a respectful distance, and is ready
to attend to any new business which
may come in his way with prompt
