A ElMETlLLlO LEAGUE.
_..__._......._
One Formed at Memphis by Prominent
Silver Democrats.
PLANS OF THE ORGANIZATION
A Democrat Will Be Appointed From Each'
State to Form a. National Executive
Committee and Numerous County
Leagues \Vill Be Organized.
MEMPHIS. June 15.-A meeting was held
at the Gaycso hotel after the adjournment
of the silver convention by a number of
prominent Democrats from the various
states. It was decided to organize a na-
tional bimetallic league for the purpose of
giving directions to and receiving reports
from all Democratic bimetallic leagues
and clubs of the country, and to encourage
the formation of leagues in all the coun-
ties of the various states.
Senators Harris of Tennessee, Turpie of
Indiana and Jones of Arkansas, with sev-
eral others, were made a committee to ap-
point a Democrat from each state to form
a national executive committee to carry
out the plan of organization.
Senator Morgan’s Views.
At the session of the silver convention
the letter from Senator John '1‘. Morgan
of Alabama was presented, but not read,
on account of the press of business before
the convention. In it the senator says:
“We invite all the friends of money that
was ‘sound’ until silver was struck below
the fifth rib by a jealous brother and hav-
ing survived the assassin is still sound, to
come into the Democratic camp and to aid
us healing the wounded feelings of the
able servant of the people. It should be
considered a just reproach to an old fash-
ioned Jackson Democrat to go outside the
party to find a new creed as to gold and
silver, or to defend our time honored and
time provon doctrine as to these metals,
but when the president passes the thresh-
old and oversteps the line with our colors
in his hands it is our duty to follow him
and rescue them from the dishonored posi-
tion of sheltering a ‘Mugwump’ demon-
stration.
“Our Duty as Democrats.”
”More than 90 per cent of the Demo-
cratic senators in the body when Senator
Harris and I entered it ware in favor of
the immediate and full restoration of the
law of 1837, signed by Jackson. There
was not then a single gold standard Dem-
ocrat in that body. There are some there
now. Only a few, and they are wearing
silver masks to disguise themselves, but
the great body of Democrats in the senate
from that day to this have upheld the old
Democrats’ creed of 1836, that ‘gold and
silver is the only safe and constitutional
currency.’ Our duty as Democrats is a
very simple one. It is to follow the old
landmarks and adhere the more closely
to our principles the louder and stronger
the tempest may rage, and when the se-
ductions of wealth and patronage are of-
fered to bribe them away from the course
of virtuous integrity, let the people say,
‘Get thee behind me, satan,’ and Satan
will disappear.”
Little Hope of a Conference.
WASHINGTON, June 15.-—The preponder-
ance of opinion among public men who
have given attention to the progress of the
German movement for an international
conference looking to the rehabilitation of
silver is that the chances for such a con-
ference in the near future are very slim.
There are few left who believe that such a
conference will be held this year, and
many express the opinion that it will be
postponed indefinitely. Chancellor Ho.
henlohe is known to be opposed to the sil-
ver movement; hence the belief that un-
less the German bimetallists can succeed
in arousing the direct interest of Emperor
William they will find it necessary to give
up the project of securing international
action through a conference called by that
government. Still another obstacle is dis-
covered in the attitude of England and in
the general understanding that Germany
is liable to be largely influenced by that
nation.
Delegate Allan-(1’s Plea For Silver.
BRUSSELS, J une i5.-—M. Alphonse Al-
lard, who Was a delegate from Belgium to
the international monetary conference of
1892, in an address to the ConservatiVe as-
sociation, asserts that the protective poli-
cy of Belgium is the result of the curren-
cy difficulty which has divided the world
into hostile camps, and which has devel-
oped changes absolutely opposed to the in-
terests of the gold countries and in favor
of silver currency.
M. Allard also says that the nation’s
fall in the prices of commodities is not due
to overproduction, but to the scarcity of
money caused by the demonetization of
1873 through the movement in favor of
prohibitive duties on commodities. The
,only real remedy, according to M. Allard,
for the industrial and commercial depres-
sion was to rehabilitate silver. That the
world was realizing this was shown in the
widespread bimetallic movement.
I Sorg For Governor of Ohio.
NEW YORK, June 15.—-The World says
Congressman Paul J. Sorg will be the next
Democratic candidate for governor of
Ohio. It was so decided at a conference of
Ohio Democratic politicians at the Waldorf
hotel. Senator Calvin S. Brice was the
foremost figure at the conference. It is
known that Mr. Sorg is the first choice of
Campbell. Sorg was first elected to con-
gress to fill a vacancy, and was re-elected
last fall. His home is in Middletown, 0.,
where Mr. Campbell was born. Sorg is a
millionaire tobacco manufacturer and the
richest congressman in Washington.
Cash Register Company Fails.
NEW HAVEN, Juno 15.—The Hublnger-
Carroll Cash Register company applied,
through Nicholas and Hubinger, for a re—
ceiver. Judge Prentice granted the peti-
tion and appointed George Barnes tempo-
rary receiver. This company is the only
one outside of the combine known as the
National Cash Register company, and
there has been a bitter war between them.
The assets are $38, 000, with an equal
amount of liabilities, which the firm say
will be paid'dollar for dollar.
EIGHT PRISONERS BREAK JAIL.
Among Them Are a Murderer and Four
Highway Robbers.
New BRUNSWICK, N. .1, June 15.———A
number of prisoners, among them a man
awaiting trial for murder, four for high-
way robbery and other desperate charac-
ters, made their escape from the county
jail about 2 a. m. by cutting a hole in the
roof of the building and then using a lad-
der made of blankets in descending to the
street. ‘ -
After they had reached the street they
all separated and escaped. The names of
the escaped prisoners are: Thomas Kins-
ley, John Murphy, John Cestello and J.
M. Clark, charged with highWay robbery;
George Steflank, charged 'with murder,
and Louis Fisher, Frank Williams and Jo—
seph Kelly, charged with setting buildings
on fire. The sheriff and police are now
making a thorough investigation of the
jail delivery, and have asked the authori-
ties of the neighboring towns to keep a
sharp lookout for the men.
Three Lunatics Escape From an Asylum.
TOPEKA, June 15.——Three lunatics con—
fined in the state insane asylum near this
city made their escape. Blosc McDonald,
55 'years old, after gaining his liberty,
took the rope by which he and his com-
panions had reached the ground and hang-
ed himself with it to a tree in front of the
asylum. The first intimation that was
had of the escape was the discovery of his
body. The other two lunatics have not as
yet been captured, .
Trainer Pincus Sues For Divorce.
LONDON, June 15.—Jacob Pincus, the

for a divorce from his wife on the ground
of adultery. Mr. Pincus cites a London
solicitor of the name of Walker as core‘
spondent.

UUN’S TEAUE OUTLOOK
Business Seems to Be Improving All
Along the Line.
rs}: GREATi RISE IN PRICES.
h Hardly Seems \Varranted by Present
Consumption, but Continues Neverthe-
less—Spring Wheat Very Encourag-
ing and Railroad Stocks Rising.
NEW YORK, June 15.—~Dun’s weekly
trade review says: It is no longer a ques-
tion whether business improves. Not for
a long time have our reports from all parts
of the country been so uniformly favor-
able. The daily average of bank clearings
in June is 24.8 per cent larger than last
year.
the receipt of more favorable advices re-
garding growingi crops. Labor troubles
are getting out of the way, wages in many
establishments are rising, and with the
iron industry just now leading there is
general improvement in manufactures.
Monetary conditions also help. The time
draws near when. with good crops, experts
will bring gold hither. Much diminished
receipts of money from the interior indi-
cate better employment in business, es-
pecially at the west, and the volume of
commercial loans steadily rises.
Cheering Outlook For \Vheat.
The decidedly cheering outlook for spring .
wheat goes far to balance reports of loss in
winter wheat regions. Western receipts
for two weeks of June were 3,116, (580
bushels of wheat against 3, 001,202 last
year,
cluded,were only 2, 364, 84? bushels against
4,630,227 last year. Effects of the rise in
prices were seen in the official report of '
May exports, showing a. decrease of 1,000,-
000 bushels from Atlantic, but an increase —
of 2,000, 000 bushels from Pacific ports.
The price declined 2% cents with small
trading. Corn also declined about 1 cent
with better reports of growth.
The oflicial statement of 14.8 per cent
decrease in cotton acreage was quickly
found, in view of revised government esti-
mates forrlast year, to mean more than
20,000,000 acres now growing cotton. The
price has not changed, but transactions
have become insignificant. Manufacturers
abroad, according to Ellison, have stocks
289,000 bales greater than a year ago, and
commercial stocks of American in sight
are still 3,200,208 bales.
Cotton mills are doing well for the sea-
son, and numerous advances of an eighth
to a quarter in brown shootings, drills, ,
bleached musllns, denims and ticks are
still reported. The wool manufacture looks
for speedy settlement of labor troubles
and finds a mpderate demand for low and
medium heavy weight goods, while some
of the cheaper lines of spring goods have
been opened with encouraging results.
The Shoe Demand sun Large.
Wool sales for two weeks of June have
been 12,561,965 pounds against 11,520,550
in 1892, of which 6,791,300 were foreign
this year against 5,568,800 in 1892. Do-
mestic supplies come forward slowly,
growers expecting an advance, and with-
out changc in quotations the markets have
afirmer tone. In shoe manufacture the
season for temporary suspension is near,
but shipments from the cast for June thus
far have been 14 per cent larger than in
any previous year. The demand is still
quite large.
The output'of pig iron June 1 was but
a trifle larger than May 1—157,224 tons
against 150,554 a month ago and 174,029
two years ago. Stocks unsold were reduced
in May 96,597 tons by stoppage of many
Mahoning, Shenango, Illinois and Vir-
ginia furnaces, which afterward resumed.
The advance in prices continues, Bessemer
pig reaching $12.40 and Grey forge $10.65
at Pittsburg, and changes in all iron prod-
ucts show an advance of 3.7 per cent this
month and 13.3 per cent from the lowest
point in February.
Rises All Along the Line.
For this conservative industry the rise
of 26 per cent in Bessemer iron seems
large, but it compareswith 35 per cent in
cotton, 53 per cent in wheat, 60 to 70 per
cent in leather, 80 per cent in refined oil
and over 100 per cent in hides. All these
products were at the lowest prices ever
known, and remarkable gains were to be
expected when any come, but with each
consumption has yet to justify advances.
Tho anthracite coal trade does not main-
tain the improvement recently reported,
and with palpable overproduction, bad
faith being charged again, the price has
declined 25 cents. The coke producers
about Connellsvillc have not yet made open
declaration of their new compact, but con-
tracts are being made at $1.35 for the last
half of the year with provision for advance
if wages rise.
Railroad Stocks Advancing.
Railroad stocks have gradually advanced
about 93 cents per share during the week,
and earnings for the first week of June
show an increase of 8.7 per cent over last
year, while full returns for May gained
7.3 per cen't, though 13.8 per centless than
in 1893. Failures for the week ending
J mm 6 are swolled by the Cordage state-
ment to $10,801,498, of which $9,622,468
were of manufacturing and $1,129,030 of
trading concerns. Exclusive of the Cord-
age, other failures showed 31,641,498 lia-
bilities, of which $462, 468 were of manu-
facturing concerns, and last year the ag-
gregate for the week was $2, 507,228, of
which 3476, 118 Was of manufacturing and
$1,872,261 of trading concerns. Failures
for the past week have been 241 in the
United States against 232 last year and 24
in Canada against 40 last year.
Foreign Flags Come Down.
ALBANY, June iii—The chief of police
of Albany enforced for the first time the
law forbidding the flying of the flags of
foreign nations on any-state or municipal
building. The capitol building was gayly
decorated with American flags and hunt-
ing in honor of flag day, and Superintend»
ent Easton was very much surprised when
he was notified by the police that-tho law
was being violated. as there were the tri-
color cf France and the colors of Spain
among the exterior decorations." Com-
plaint had been ' made to the police. The
obnoxious flags wagegggicled at once.
