Nrw Yetta. lay a—The World's in dlsnapcllr ndsnt say a: Governor Matthews, whom the Demo nets of Indiana will in a few days unanI ~” measly norniaate for the presidency, has explained his views on the political quer- tlcns .of the day. On the principal topic new before the country-that of finance «Governor Matthews spoke ferthe first time since the announcement of his candidacy and I may say that be anticl- pated a public statement that he will make at a very early day. Said Governor Hatthcwr: "Beyond the minor question of a free and unlimited coinage ot' silver is the more important one as to whether we should maintain the double standard of value or adopt gold as the standard aicns. “Sold as a single unit of value I am op- posed ta 1 want to retain both gold and silver, and, as soon as it can be accumi pllshedlwithout harm to the country,f should like to go back totbe conditions prior t6 1878. \ “I cdn conceive that an Immediate and radical return to free and unlimited coin clue of silver would bsvsry harmful at the present time. The question of ratio can be determined after we determine whether wewill retain silver as a standard For Silver by, Agreement. “I am a friend of silver, but I do not know that I would take the position that would be satisfactory to the ultra silver, men. I doubt very much if any steps should be taken ital the free and unliimtv ed coinage of silver in the United States until an earnest and sincere effort has been made to hold an international conference on the question. "i think. at the same time. that this government should take the initiative and he frunéjmcugh to say to these other coun- tries, ‘ e want to come to some agree- ment. 1! we cannot come to some agree ment with you. the United States must come to a conclusion for itself.’ “Try England, France. Germany—It may he a foregone conclusion regarding England. She would probably come in as regarding lndls, but not Great Britain herself-dint if she holds out, make it France or Germany, and if they fail take the matter up independently and solve the problem for ourselves. I believe be fore we could go back to the free and un- llmitcd coinage of silver we should make this effort to have the international con- ference. and Ida not believe It will be held unless the United States takes the initia- tive. Here In our state. where I am best acquainted with the feelings and sent!- ment of the people. the silver feeling is stronger than the gold. But I think the Republican convention will adopt a gold platform. "i do not think the Democrats would accept the platform of few—It Is too am- biguous on the metal question and admits ob different constructions. I doubt very much if the party would accept that plat- form with an eastern man. The platform of I892 was when by the Demo erotic muses. When was given us at Chicago, it was believed by many dele- gates that the construction that President Cleveland would place on it would be dif- ferent from the construction he has fob lcwcd. “1 do not mean to criticise hfr. Cleve- land in this—he acted according to his conscience and his interpretation of the meaning of the platform, but there is a diaerence of views as "to what this con- struction might be. I do not think the convention‘ next July will permit Ir reso- lution to pass that is Indefinite or amblgv nous—it must he a plain statement of one kind or the other." Would Maintain the law. i asked Governor Matthews: “Are you willing to guarantee, as force a candidate can. that if nominated and elected president of the United States the present monetary standard of the United thtes would be permanently mainteluv a]! r! Governor Katthewr hesitated a moment and then said: “I cannot igrestocpprovc existing con- ditions unqualifiedly. Of course i would maintain the law. 1 have always regard- ed the dcmoncilzation of: silver as wrong, and I am now, and have ever been. ready to support any reasonable propomlnn look: Ing toward Its restoration. i appreciate the fact that this should be accomplished by an international agreement "The agitation of this free silver qucs ticn due, in my Judgment, to depression of bus near. “I am inclined to think many of the al- legations made by the friends of free all« ver Inslncere. and also those of the ultra gold monometalllsts rcgsrdlngan Interua~ tlonal himstslllrm. I am a bimetalliat. l I do not think that there is gold enough In the country to carry on commerce. "I am aware that the silver question will make great trouble in the national convention. far more trouble than is good for the party. i trust. however. that a plrmk will be Inserted in the platform that will be agreeable to all elements. “i believe one thing ls certain and that is that the Democratic party must take Imme rtond In favor of silver if It III to be successful. i think today that the ma jorlty of the ludlaua Democrats are up» questionehly Ia favor of a more liberal view of the silver question. The German element In this state is not unanimously In favor of ngold standard. as has been re ported. and many Germans-though not a majority—arc friendly to silver. “1 repeat that i do not wish toadopt any measure that will ccuvnlss business and be detrimental to our manufacturing and beams. Interests, but 1 claim that a flammable yielding In favor of silver will do none of the mischief that has been foretold by the advocates of a single geld standard. speak from my earnest eonvlctlcns, and i believe that no Democrat or Repub- lican can be elected on the basic of gold Mommas, any more than a candl- data could beelsctsdon the basis of free and unlllmtsd coinage of silver at the ra- ttosflutc l. ”mulled, aadldc notkncwwhlch cf the twcirthe more D i Wanton-Alum. amma-tthmuatnu balsa-cl substratum m table-Ill! looking man walked Into the cues of the Cuban. junta shit was immediately cited or swell known Cuban patriot. was shown Into the Inner cities, where he met General Palms and Dr. .1.

This Is nonsense—as false as the reports of vin- tories the Spaniards claim to have won. General Maceo is in full and complete possession of Pinar del Rio province. “He sends word to me that be In In per- fect health, that he Is at the head of a well equipped army and expects to remain in Pinar dei lilo province until the rainy ass. son has well set in.
