Ebb of the. Free Sliver Craze.
The free silver fanatics have had the
field for some years in this country
withcut a well defined issue, and with-
out organized opposition on the part of
the friends of honest money. During
the last few months the issue has be—
come sharply defined, and although the
organized movement for honest money
is yet in its infancy, there is a Visible
.ebb in the free silver craze, and it is
likely to be impotentin both the He-
puLlican and Democratic national con-
ventions a year hence.
The great strength of the free silver
theory has been amongst the farmers of
the count-r y. . They haveibeen impover-
, ished by the low price of wheathnd
other farm products, arid they were ap-
pealed tb in their distress by > the de-'
magogic leaders of the free silver and
cheap money theory promising them
relief from their embarrasment by the
multiplication of a degraded currency.
They' were told that silver and
wheat had declined together, and the
argument seemed plausible. But
that argument has been utterly
overthrown by roots and figures which
the farmers
Wheat has advanced from 55 cents to
82 cents per bushel during the last few
months, while silver has not advanced
a farthing.
The farmers are-thus taught by argu-
ments which cannot be gaiusaid that sil—
ver and wheat are‘subject to the inex-
orable laws of supply and demand; that
wheat- commands low prices when there
is overproduction, and high prices when
the production does not exceed the de-
‘l‘he same inexorable law ap-

plies to silver.
tion reduced its price one—half,
whether wheat shall be high or low,
silver will rcmainata very low figure
until the demand shall equal or exceed
the prod llCl/AUU.
The farmers and the Workiogmen of
the country have generally come to un-
derstand that cheap money Ewould not
only be u calamity,to the country, but
a special misfortune to them. While
the farmer could get $1 for wheat
on the free silver theory he would be
rrquired to pay $2 for everything that
he must buy where $1 would purchase
the same commodity now. The wage—
earner also nnderstands that cheap
money would not double his wages
while it would diminish the purchasing
povvcr of his wagcsjust one-half. .l‘hus
°men most interested in honest
Bioney are now beginning to come to
the front to defend it, and the ebb in
the free silver craze is evident on every
hand. ‘
51'. There are yetimauyficowurdly. politi-
calgleaders who flare afraid to express
themselves in favor of honest money:
but before many months shall have
pissed they will come to the front and
inside over each other to declare in
favor of maintaining public and private
credit, and in favor of dollars, whether
paper, gold or silver, which will com-
mand their face value in every market
of the world. Only such money can be
cilled honest money, and every nation
that does not thus maintain its credit
must be paralyzed in its industry, com-
merce and trade and be eliminated
from the successful governments of the
World.

Wants His Ring Back.
City Sheriff Hamilton attached jewel-

the local banks, yesterday, belonging
to Alice E. Clark, of East Norwalk, in
a suit instituted by William S. Snaceker
of Stratford, for 813500. The plaintiff
is 80 years of age.
The defendant is well-known in soci-
ety circles in this city, having figured
.in many leading social events for the
past few years
Some years ago, it is alleged, the
plaintiff presented the defendant with a
hanGSOme. diamond ring, to: which he
,also added a gift of $500.Ai1 est-1a nee-
’m‘ent sprang up betvifeeh" the couple,
and then the plaintiff requested the re-
turn of the diamond ring. His request
was unheeded, and the suit is the re-
sult.
The defendant is said to be an ac-
complished young woman and exceed—
ingly prepossessing. The suit, if it
reaches trial, promises to prove of more
than ordinary interest.——Bridgcport

The third annual closing of Prof.
Carl A. Harstrom’s Preparatory school
took place yesterday. Preceding the
exercises, which were ofa very inter-

room, there was a. competition drill,
followed by a company drill, in both of
which great proficiency was displayed.
The school room exercises included a
prayer and address by Rev. S. H. Wat-
kins, awarding of prizes. remarks by
the Principal, and the benediction.
Prizes were awarded as follows: Latin,
E. B. Partridge of Phelps, N. Y. ;
Mathematics, Remo R. Fisher, of New

rent Topics, W. H. Reed, of South
Norwalk; Morgan History prize, W.

the best examination in junior work
was secured by E. 0. Phillips of New

Charged. With Causing the Death

ed His Cans In the Water From
a Foul Well. .
Henry J. Blackham whose contami-
nated milk Spread typhoid fever all
through Stamford, causing hundreds to
suffer and a score to die, was arrested
yesterday afternoon. The officer found
Blackham at work painting his house. -
I'Io seemed to understand» at once the
reason for the officer’s visit, and inti-
mated that he had been expecting to be
placed under arrest.
He was taken at once to police head-
Quarters.
Blackham was locked up in one of
the cells. He asked that word be sent
to Dr. Hexamcr, the former health of-
ficer, who, he said, Would become his
bondsman.
For several weeks past, Prosecuting
Attorney Carter has been quietly work-
ing up a case against Blackham, and
has had several conferences with Mayor
Scofield, who has believed that the
milkman ought to be prosecuted.
Blackham, it is said, has not exhibited
any fear of what the law could do in
his case, shielding himself behind the
theory that, if his milk was contami-
nated, the contamination was not inton-
tional on his part. The general opinion,
however, has been that it was criminal
carelessness, to say the least, to use
water from a well with such foul sur-
roundings, even for washing cans, if it
waSput to no other use. '
The-c1139 will now be carefully and
fairly 11 1ed 1n the courts, and it is 1111+.
derstood that Mr. Carter will. call as
witnesses the present and former health
officerS, as well as other local physicians
and persons to whom B‘-ck ham sold
milk.
The complaint was drawn by Prosc-
cutlng Attorney Galen A. Carter, Jr.,
, with care, and charges Blackham with
manslaughter.
It recites that he was 1n the businets
of selling milk to various persons in
Stamford; that, while so engaged, he
recklessly and carelessly used certain
water containing typhoid—fever germs
his milk; that while in said business he
sold milk containing these po1sonous
and used by said King and members of
his family; that J ohu King was a mem—
ber of the‘family and drank milk con-
taining the germs, in consequence of
which he died.
The prosecuting attorney charges
that Blackham by the means indicated,
feloniously killed John F. King.
Another count reiterates the same
charge, with the exception that “water
containing poisonous substances” is
used in reference to the contamination
.of milk.
The person named in the complaint
die May 28, aged 24 years and2
months. Either one of those who died
of typhoid fever would probably have
answered the purpose of the prosecu»
tion.
Awaiting the Verdict.
,. Yesterday afternoon Chief of Police
Bradley was informed that a white wo-
man was detained against her 11 in
colored'juggler of hot-frankfurters. In
visited the ranch and was cordially
greeted by Burton.
The Chief stated his errand and Bur-
ton denied that there was anvone else
in the building besides himself. The
Chief was not satisfied, however, that;
he was telling the truth, and ordered
Burton to open the trap door leading
into the room overhead. They were
closely followed by the news gatherer,
and were ushered into a room that
“rocked of a strong smell,” asmcll
that Wuuld strip a. maple tree of its
foliage.
In a small room at the rear, the Chief
found in bed a man and woman who
were apparently transients. They were
directed to get up and clothe them-
selves.
The woman modestly threw a horse-
blanket or quilt over her head, and the
man "sighting the brass buttons on the
Chief’s coat, attempted to defend him-
self in the usual manner. ,
The Chief retired into the next room
but not until he had inquired into the
identity of the occupants of the couch.
The man gave his name as Reilly and
the woman said her name was Sadie
Kelly and her home Saugatuck. Both
names it appears were fictitious.
Mr. Reilly ('2) and Miss Kelly (P) were
taken to the station-house, and will be
given a hearing in the Town court
this afternoon, the charges preferred
against them being fornication.
A writ has also been sworn out against
Burton, the charge being keeping a
house of assignation. w‘l‘his building
has for along time had a disreputable
name.
This afterooon the woman in the case
plead “not. guiltv” and she was placed
under $100 bonds for a further hearing
