-HT ran- - . THE SUNDAY. OREGONIAN, PQKTLAKD, FEBEUAEY 11, 1900. A, BpR RESOLUTION Slipped Through the 'Senate Yesterday Afternoon. VOTE WAS THEN RECONSIDERED Chandler, Chilton and Money Spolce in. Opposition, to the Finan cial Bill. WASHINGTON, Feb. 10 A resolution expreeatng srmpatby with the Boers In their struggle against Great Britain ana urging mediation ' on the part of the "United States between the belligerents was adopted by the senate today, in a lit of temporary aberration or inattention. The resolution ft as offered by Allen ol Nebraska, and went through without at tracting the slightest comment from any one of the doeen or more senators pres ent A minute later, however, at the re quest tf the chair (Frye), Allen con sented to a reconsideration of the vote by which the resolution was passed, and the Incident passed amid much quiet laugh ter. The financial debate was continued by Chandler of New Hampshire, who op poeed tke gold standard and strongly urged the double standard. Chilton of Texas and Honey of Missis sippi also spoke. The Proceedings. At the opening of the senate, Allen (pop. Neb) presented the following reso lution. "That the United States of America ex tends its sympathy to the people of the South African republics in their heroic struggle for liberty and popular govern ment, and believes it to be the duty of the government of the United States of America to offer mediation, to the end that further bloodshed may be averted and honorable peace concluded between the belligerent governments." Ne objection was made to the consid eration of the resolution, only about a docen senators being present. Before anybody realized what was going on the resolution was put to a vote and de clared adopted. The senators looked from one to another, and several, among them Allen, laughed unrestrainedly. Pettus, addressing the chair, demanded the ayes and noes. Te this Allen objected, as the resolution, had been declared adopted. Tfae chair agreed to this point, but asked Allen that he permit the vote to be reconsidered and let the resolution go over. To this Allen consented. Chandler (rep N. H.) was itben recog nised to deliver an address upon the pend ing financial bill, which was laid before the senate. He said in part: "Those who have absorbed the gold of the world are 'trjing to make it more valuable by legislation. That is the nat ural meaning of the first 14 lines of the senate bill. There is no need of the. law for any other purpose. Absolutely no other purpose is to be subserved by those lines. The passage of the bill without adequate recognition of the desire and determination of the American people that silver shall be remonetlzed is a defi ance of the republican platform of 1896, and without such recognition In the bill I cannot give it my vote. It would be unqualified gold monometalism, and to advocate or submit to this is an aban donment of republican principles. "Am retarding of the movement to auake gold more valuable does not suit the gold class. Further steps are there fore now demanded, namely, that all the existing silver coin shall be put out from the oaodttion of real money and placed in oestttHm eeeettt money; that ls nurni' all of which must be redeemed on demand in gold. If this new principle Is to prevail, the real money will be $4,MMM.00 of gold, and the credit money, including the silver money, will be 50,000, OM.6M And upon this gold and other credit money are to be built all the checks and other credits in trade throughout the world. How broad the summit and how Barrow the base1 "It te not true that, because it is claimed that we have now hat are called good tunes mad prosperity in America, blmetal Ism should be ridiculed and disregarded. But our good times are simply because the balance of trade has been so largely In our favor. What would have oeen our condition if the balance of trade had not been in our favor? In truth, in spite of temporary present conditions, the case In favor of bimetaltsm still remains unim paired. The merits of bimetalism are platu. The Injury to result from gold xnonometallsm is sure. "The rapubMoan party is pledged to bl metattem. Were we blunderers when we shouted over and over again for remone ttsatloK? Is it not quite possible that we were right then and are now -n rong, when It is proposed forever to discard remonotl saUos? "I wont the double standard. So do iaOMMft f the People of thIs ivcrld U aura.' while only 300.000.000 want the single gold standard. We want the real money of the world to be SS,OOO,OOO,O0O In coin. Ther want it to be only 1,000,000,000. The difference means injustice. Injury, Buffeting and distress to millions of God's poor people the world over; ts hile the gold class te to wax fat at the cost of their helpless ictima. The republican party ought not to direct any such grievous wrong. I entreat its leaders not to burden us with gold monometalism, but to renew In unwtetakahle language our oft-repeated pledges to remonetlse silver. "If we are true to our traditions and the wishes of our constituents, we shall re-elect our gracious and patriotic presi dent by popular and electoral majorities greater than any president has ever re ceived. Can we afford, by the passage of the needless first 10 lines of this bill -without sufficient qualification to add to the chances of defeat?" At the conclusion of Chandler's speech Chilton (oent. Tex.) was recognized to address the senate In opposition to the pending meawwe. which he declared, rep resented the policy oi me rvpuiHiu&n au XBtntetration. He urged that the main ob ject of the bUl was to refund the entire national debt In long-time gold bonds. Thte would .Insure perpetuity to the na tional banks and afford them a greater money monopoly even than they possessed aow. It would likewise destroy all pros pects of bhnetnltsm. so far as the power of the republican party could accomplish that result. He regarded it as likely that a treasury ruling would be made after the passage of the pending bill pro vtdtnc that stiver dollars and silver cer ttnoatos" should be made redeemable in soft. "Chilton objected Xo the great power conferred by the senate bill upon the sec retary of the treasury, and maintained that the authority for the issuance of all bonis be vasts in. oongress the repre senttHiB of the people. , Honer (dew. Miss.? declared his belief that If the production of gold should in crease In the next five years as it had Increased In the last, there would be a ianimfl for the demonetization of gold and the romonetlsatton of silver.

State Senator Tlerney, of Montana, continued his testi mony in the -Clark case before the senate committee on privileges and elections to day. He said he had never been asked to -support -Clark for senator, and, there fore, was never offere2f any consideration, for his vote for that gentleman. The de tails of the organization of the Town send bank, in which he had money, were explained, and how he had money in it Tlerney said the J5S00 which he put into the organization of the new bank had been kept In the safe of Darsey & Co., where It had been put in preference to putting it In the. bank qf Hyatt & Delaney, the only pank then existing at Townsend. Of $5800 drawn out of this transaction, not to exceed $2000 .had been entered on the books "of the firm. He nad taken it out because it was his. Very often, however, these deposits were put Into the general cash of the firm. In response to a ques tion of Chandler, the witness said that, notwithstanding' there were aspersions cast upon his character because of his vote for Clark, he bad brought no paper of any kind to Washington with him to show where the $5800 used In organizing the Townsend bank had come from. Questioning brought out the fact that both Eversoll and Representative Sheve ley, -who, together with Tlerney, consti tuted the whole legislative delegation from Broadwater county, were stockholders In the new Townsend bank. Of the entire $25,000 capital, Mr. Tlerney testified that he and relatives of his business associates had contributed about $18,000, Eversoll and Sheveley each having $1000. The organiza tion had been canvassed two years pre lous to its actual organization, but the Idea bad not been put Into execution because of the difficulty of getting the money together. Some of the money put In by his relatives had been brought from the East. All the members of, the legisla ture who were in the bank in the end had voted for Clark for the senate. William Berne, a ranchman of Columbia Falls, who said he had formerly worked in one of Daly's mines in Butte, testified to being senfby men connected with Daly to Flathead county during the legislative election of 1S98 to assist Whiteside In his race for the state senate. On the train out from Columbia Falls he said he had a talk with Whiteside, and the latter told him that Clark had sent money into the county to be used against him, adding he would get even with Clark If It ever came In his way, for bucking him Jn his election. Whiteside had said he would "job Clark to a fare-you-well" again In Helena after the legislature. He asked Whiteside for some money. "Whiteside replied," said the witness, "that he only bad $7,. though a fetv weeks before he had had WOW in his pockets, but, as It had not been his, he turned it over to the state. He said he had been offered $100,000 to leave town. I told him," continued the witness, "that he was a d d fool for not keeping the money, but he replied that ho could make more out of the other side out of Daly by turning the money over." On cross-examination, the witness said ho had thought that Whiteside had meant that he could not only get J1C0.0M for leaving, but he could also keep the $30, 000. He added that Whiteside had loaned him $5 of the $7 he had on hand, and that he"had 'paid the amount back. The hearing adjourned until Monday. MURDER IN FIRST DEGREE MOLEVETJX CONVICTED ofr JEOISOX . ING MRS. ADAMS." Jury Deliberated Seven, floors and a Half Prisoner Heard tlite:V.er.w diet Without ntptldiuir NEW TORE, Feb. 10. After deliberat ing 76 hours, the jury returned, a ver dict qf guilty of murder, in the first de gree against Roland B. Mqlineux, charged with the murder of Mrs. Ifate J. Adams by poison, December 28, 1898. Barlow S. Weeks, counsel or the defense, made the usual motion. and Recorder Goff ad journed tourtuntll February 16, when he said he would hear the motl6n and sen tence the defendant In the midst of his charge to the jury Recorder Goff stopped -andr asked Lawyer Weeks If he wished him to define the -various charges of manslaughter and murder. Mr. Weeks answered that he did not; that it was murder in the first degree or nothing. Without defining the crimes of manslaughter and murder, Recorder Goff continued by saying: "You may find a verdict of murder in the first or second degree., but you must not use your power capriciously.". , The recorder went over tho indictment clasped In front of him. His face -never 1 flinched as the clerk asked again: "What Is your verdict?" "We find the defendant guilty of murder In the first degree." "As the words were spoken, the bell In the flrehouse near by struck 11 o'clock. It. funded like the tolling of a church bell for the dead. Mollneux hardly moved. His neck stiffened a little and he straight ened his- back. General Mollneux reached Jhis' hand to "his son's shoulder and pressed it hard. Mollneux put his own hand on his father's shoulder and stood without further movement while, his counsel asked that the jury be polled. Each Juryman agreed -with the verdict rendered by the foreman, and then the recorder asked if counsel had any request to make. Re corder Goff then heard the formal mo tion,, and ordered the removal of the defendant- r Mollneux shook hands with his father and his brother Leslie, and started to fol low the deputy sheriff to prison. As he left his seat, General. Mollneux said to hiip In tones loud enough to be heard by all, "Keep" up your nerve," and tlie pris oner" replied with a smile, "Yes; don't be afraid." Mollneux' mother and his wife, unable to bear the strain of long waiting for the verdict, had left the courtroom after the Jury 'went out. Mr. Weeks asked on behalf of General Mollneux that the latter" be. permitted to visit his son, and the recorder made an exception in this case, .and granted permission. A tremendous crowd waited In the corri dors until after the return of the verdict. THE GERMAN NAVAL BILL .W0M Qp. JHE UNITED STAT SPEECH IN OPPOSITION BY HERR BEDEL, IN THE REICHSTAG? France Trylnc- Dlscord To Investigate "Wardnfer Riot. WASHINGTON, Feb. 10 The house committee on military affaire today is sued 25 subpe-naes for Investigation Into the Idaho mining riots, which the federal troops, under General Merrlam, sup pressed. The investigation is to begin February .26. Sovereign, of the Knights of Labor, arid representatives of other labor organizations were among those sub-penaed. to Stir TJp Between Enelaml and Germany--. Princo "Henry's Visit to Austria, ' BERLIN. Feb. 10. The debate on the first reading of the navy bill was resumed In the relchstag, today. Herr Bebel, the socialist leader, earnestly opposed the measure, declaring the socialists' were against the presan and"all similar de mands, because they tended to support a sjstem antagonized by their party." It was evidently the Intention of the govern ment, he added, to make the German navy ecual to any fleet In the world; but In the race Great Britain would always be ahead of Germany. Continuing, Herr Bebel saia that when It was considered that a portion of Ger man Industry could not exist wlthoul British trade, 'the widespread hatred of Great Britain was incompreherfsible. He concluded with saying: "We have every reason to cultivate the friendship of Eng land. If we should ever be compelled to operate seriously with the whole of our resources, Including the army, no one can tell how It would end." The secretary of the admiralty. Admiral Tirpltz-, ' repudiated Herr Rebel's sugges tions.

Did the defendant send the poison package to Cornish? Upon that controlling ques tion the whole case hangs. If ho did not, then all the other questions aro disposed of. If jou are satisfied he did not, then you. shall acquit." As to the testimony of the four hand writing experts called by tho prosecution, the recorder said: v"Tho testimony of ex perts is entitled to tho same considera tion as the testimony of other witnesses. Expert evidence Is offered to aid the jury, i Expert evidence is competent as evidence to a fact In case of an expert swearing to a fact which must necessarily be a matter of opinion, his evidence need not be taken as a fact, even if the integrity of the witnesses are unlmpeached. "In a case of this character, where a life is at stake, I would have you exam inn that testimony with care and caution. and If tho question at issue hangs merely on that testimony, I Tvould instruct you that It would be extremely dangerous to convict of murder In tho first degree upon that class of iegtlmony,-- -x.i Tha TecOTdet" tpokzup-some f 'thead mltted and disputed writings;, and told tho jury they had a, right to 'disagree with all the conclusions drawn by the experts! but must give weight to tho facts Dointed out by them. "If tho testimony given as to the death of H. C. Barnet," said the recorder, "tends to lead up to the identification of Mollneux, it is. material. But if you are satisfied that Mollneux was responsl Ma for thft death of Barnet, that is no reason why you should find him guilty Df the death of Mrs. Adams, '- 'S "When the recorder finished Mr. Battle arose and at once noted an exce'ption 4o his refusal to charge as requested. Then, before sending the' jury to their deliberations, Recorder Goff -remembered that he had forgotten to warn the jury that Mollneux father entered In no way Into the case. "His honored father Is not on trial," he eald In conclusion. "It Is Mollneux who Is on trial. His station, money or friends entitle him to no con sideration. He Is entitled to a fair and impartial trial." , From the time the jury went out at 3:15 P. M, the crowd in the courtroom watched the door, through which It had left the court In silent expectancy. It was almost two hours before there was any noise. The solemnity of the occasion had affected court officers and visitors alike. The jury came in shortly after 9 o'clock to ask for exhibits ot handwriting, and again at 10-30 they came in for Instruc tions. Fifteen minutes later there was no doubt that the jury had agreed. Court officials- shouted for silence. Doors' were locked and the gray-haired clerk, of the court took his seat below the recorder's bench- General Mollneux sat straight in his chair, a glassy look in his eyes, and his hands folded on the table in front of him, trembling a little In spite of himself. Then there was a hush. The jurors walked to their chairs between a file of court officials. There was no sign of cheer In any of their faces. As soon as the jurors had taken their seats, a deputy sheriff brought Mollneux from the prison. There was no- sign of apprehension on the young man's face. His step was light and springy, and he smiled as if he had not a care in the world. Then he sat down, looked for a' moment straight at the recorder's bench, and then whispered to Mr. "Weeks, who was showing signs of nervousness. A moment later the recorder entered. The names of the jury were read, and the clerk sald "Gentlemen of the jury, have you agreed upon a verdict?" "We have," replied the foreman, "The jurors will please rise. The de fendant will rise." General Mollneux sat with his hands and when Molfneux was brought out by the deputy sheriff, somebody called for "three,1 cheers for Mollneux," and a re markable demonstration with great cheer ing followed. It Is said the trial has cost $200,000. COBBETT-JEFFRIES FIGHT. "Will Talce Place itt Coney Island About the Middle of May. NEW YORK, Feb. lO.--The Jeffrles-Cor-bett fight, It Is announced, will-take place before the Seaside Athletic Club, Coney Island. W. A. Brady, representing Jeff ries, and George Consldlne, representing Corbett, met this afternoon and took this decisive, action. The National Athletic Club, of San Francisco, failed, to deposit the $5000 forfeit with a New York stake holder within the required time. Accord ing to tho agreement, Al Smith was to hold the "forfeit money of all parties. He notified Messrs. Consldlne and Brady that he had not received any money from the National Athletic Club. A telegram was shown, stating that the money had been deposited with u San Francisco newspa per, "pat ConsFdine-'wduia not hVar of this.

FRENCH INTRIGUING. Trying to Rupture Anclo-German Friendship. BERLIN, Feb. 10. An official of tho GTOan,ftyredgn office, who was questioned today by tlho correspondent of the Asso ciated Press regarding the utterances of tho duke of the, grand duchy of Meck-lenborg-Schwaerin to. a French newspaper man, soldi "It is true Duke Aibrecht received the Eclaira represenitative, but the letter evi dently greatly exaggerated the duke's" ut terances. The French are doing everything- possible to disturb the friarwHy rela tions between Germany and England. After Fashoda, France's most reasonable policy would have been to establish an understanding with England In regard to tho colonial question, but instead of this the Paris cabinet seeks every opportunity to creato enemies for England. If M. Del Casse thinks it to France's advan tage systematically to agitato against England, he can do so, but he must not try to rupture Anglo-German friendship." Referring ta the visit of Prkice Henry of Prussia, the, foreign official said: "The immediate object is to present himself to Emperor Francis Joseph as. an Austrian vice-admiral, to which rank he was recently nominated. A political pur pose may also be assigned to the visit, as Germany wishes to show that all recent attempts to shake the dreibund have been fruitless. The drelbund's enemies In Paris and SJ. Petersburg must be shown that all tha recent Intrigues have had no re sult. Germany emphasizes this by Prince Henry's visdfc first to Germany's ally." The rejehsteg: debate on the naval bill and the question, "Will it pass?'1 over shadow everything just now. But the queer fact -deserves recordtog that the muoh-heard-of enthusiasm, and so-called hurrah seem to have suddenly oozed away, as the naked facts confronted the speakers both for the government and the Opposition. Even Herr Rlohter, the radical leader, whose witty, keen speech Is usually rellsfhed even In the cabinet, was not at M3 best, force! The secretary of tine admiralty, Admiral Tirpltz, spoke several times at length, but only once spiritedly. Intrinsically, the best speech was that of the secretary of, the Interior, Count von Posodowsky-Wehner, who mode a strong case in favor of the contention that the nation will not need new taxa- ! tion after doubling: the navy. He also proved that after passing1 the bill, Ger many protects her merchant marine with one ton of navy against 1 tons of mer chant ships, white the United States pro portion is one to five, Italy's one to three, and Russia's and France's is even less. Ho made a strong point, insisting that the biindesrath pass the bfll at both readings; unanimously. The absence and probable death Of Dr. Lleber, the centrist leader, lessens the chances of tho bllj, as Dr, Lieber would have acted as a mediator between the gov ernment and the "center There is1 nobody fit to take his llace as chief I the center. Count von Bulow, the minister of for eign affaire, and the emperor still take care vigorously to destroy the impression in England: and elsewhere that Germany at any time'meant to join In steps calling on Great Britain to haBt in South Africa. This impression has been cunningly mursed and foisted by French diplomacy and in the French press, and Count von Bulow believes it has been for the pur pose of projecting Great Britain in an openly hostHe attitude to Germany. This purpose may now be considered to have failed. Tho whole German semi-official press during the week published facts showing that Germany wishes to renSain a friend of both Russia and Franco and of Great Britain. MRS. BELVA A.

Tha failure of ointments, salves and pills to permanently cure plies has led many td believe the only cure to be a surgical operation. But surgical operations are dangerous to life, and, moreover, are often unsuc cessful, and at this time are no longer used by the best physicians nor recom mended by them. The safest and surest way to cure any case of piles, whether Itching, bleeding or protruding, is to use the Pyramid Pile Cure, composed of vegetable oils and acids, healing and soothing to the In flamed parts, and containing no opium or other narcotic. Dr. Williams, a prominent oriflclal sur geon, saysr "It is the duty of every sur geon to avoid an operation if possible to cure In any other way, and after many trials "with the Pyramid Pile' Cure I un hesitatingly recommend It In preference -j to an operation." "The harmless acids and oils contained in it cause the blood vessels -to contract to a natural condition and the tumors are absorbed and-the oure Is made with out pain, inconvenience or detention from "In bleeding and itchjosr piles the Pyra mid is equdlly valuable," In some- cases a sjpgle package of the Pyramid nas cured long-standing cases; being In supposttqry form, it is always ready for use, can he carried In the pocket when, traveling; It & applied, at night, and-does notjlnterf ere. with the dairy pecupatfon. The Pyramid "Pile 'Cure is not only the safest and surest remedy for piles, but Is the best-known and mojgt popular from Maine toCalifornia Every physician and druggist Knows It and what It will do.
