London, July 22. Commenting on
the Francoiatuee difficulty, the Lon
don tilul says :
The flagrant French aggression is
aimed at England. Siam is merely a
pretext. Hence the duty of the British
foreign office is one of extraordinary
difficulty. England's place in the situ
ation is paramount. Firmness is neces
eary, for doubtless the French are
counting upon the feebleness of British
counsel. She is not hunting for war
nearer home than the Me-Kong river.
The St. James's Gazette says : One
thought conveyed by Siam s reply to
the French Ultimatum is that she has
suffered enough humiliation for a small
power that has been unfortunate enough
to get in the way of a big one, but
France lias gone forth to grab and ex
tort her desires at the cannon's mouth.
We can endure the piliage of Siam to
the 18th parallel of latitode, but the pil
lage of Siam, China and Burmah to the
2od parallel is a different matter. We
are afraid Lord Rosehery must let the
governments at Bangkok and Paris
tnow this is going a trifle too far. Such
a check in the present temper of the
French may have serious results.
The Pall Mall Gaietle in an article
headed "Blackmail" savs :
-Siam hus spoken with dignity and
s3eratioii. She gives up too much,

France miBSt reckon with England. We
must not .hesitate to let onr voices be

bombarding Bangkok, let ber remember

Losoo.s,3uly 84. A dispatch to the
Chronicle from Paris says: "The tenor
of the French ultimatum to Siam leaves
no donbt as to France's intention. She
would prefer Dot to receive the money
down from Siam. The alternative of
becoming a taxgatherer in the coveted
districts of Angker and Battambang is
far more to her taste."
The Times this morning publishes an
editorial which it is thought expresses
the general English opinion of the
merits of the Franco-Siamese dispute.
In commenting on Siam's answer to the
French ultimatum, the Times says :
"Siam's refusal to go beyond the just
and reasonable limits or to concede ter
ritory to w hich France never put in an
effective claim until the other day, is no
excuse for the measure of hostility os
tensibly directed against the Siamese,
but really striking at the commerce of
England and other countries having
commercial relations with Siaiu."

Chicago, July 24. General A. J.
Warner, member of congress from Ohio,
and president of the American Bi
metallic League, is here to arrange for
the bimetallic convention August 1st.
Over l,0iX prominent silver men are ex
pected from all parts of the country.
General Warner said today :
Our convention is called to deliberate
as to the course to be pursued by those
opposed to the repeal ol" the Sherman
law without a satisfactory substitute,
and to give expression to public senti
ment on the financial question. Steps
will be taken to bring influence to lear I
upon congress, and to prevent the con
summation of what the gold men, acting
under the instigation of foreign influ
ence, are attempting to carry out. I am
confident that the Sherman law cannot
be repealed without a satisfactory sub
stitute. We believe the United States
alone can maintain the parity of gold
and silver at the present ratio ;
the government cannot, we would then
agree to a change of ratio.

in the way of the mail train. The train
was making forty miles per hour when
it met the obstruction. The engine was
bad'y damaged, and the forward curs
were completely wrecked. A nir.il clerk

York, was instantly killed. Another

Nw Yohk, July 24. Richard laeey
has received a letter on the silver ques
tion from Richard lacey Everett. M. P.
Cable reports of the proceedings in par
liament have mentioned Everett several
time! as interrogating Gladstone. Ever
ett'! letter is as follows:
The feeling of many friends of the
free coinage of both motels in England,
that both should be afull legal tender,
is strong against the action of the gov
ernment as to India.
First Because it had takeu a irp of
world-wide importance without consult
ing parliament, though parliament was
sitting at the time.
Second Because, having in the early
part of the session indignantly le
nounced "tampering with currency," it
has now tampered with it in a way that
rests upon no principle and that will
adversely affect the dumb, helpless mil
lions of India.
Third Because it did ail it could to
frustrate coming to an international
agreement as to silver and gold at Brus
sels, w hile it now reeks to carry out bas
tard blmetalism between India and Eng
land by their joint action alone.
Fourth Because, having railed nt
the folly of an idea attempting to fix an
artificial value for one metal, it is now
aiming at that very thing.
Fifth Because a further new demand
for gold w ill lie created by w hat is pro
posed, thus artificially further raising
the value of that metal, and by conse
quent forcing down of the prices of

Sixth Because new difficulties will

Seventh Because the new policy

We look anxiously now to see what

Salem, Or., July 24. Three insane
patients were received at the asylum to
day. One was Mrs. Mattie Keaton, of
Caleb, Grant county, who says she is
pursued by two girls who intend to de
stroy ber. She is 30 years of age. Mrs.
Sophia Walline of Marsbfield, aged 74
years, has a desire to burn everything
about her, and threatens to strike and
kill ber niece. She has been insane
often during the past two years. Oliver
Jones, a colored coachman, who laid
been working for J. L. Parrish three
years, was committed from Salem.
This morning he attempted to force Mr.
Parrish's little son to drink liquor, but
was prevented by its mother. Then he
asked Mrs. Parrish for 20. He was
told to write a check for that amount
and she would sign it. Instead be made
the figures 2"0, and tried to make. the
lady sign for that amount. Fearing
that be would do ber barm, she did to.
He then went down town and tried to
cash the same, bat could not before
word was sent to the banks. Later, a
complaint was sworn out and he was
taken before Judge Hubbard and ad
judged insane.

Washington, July 24. So far as the,ml not ,,8Ve "ny ta'1? or W of tl,e
state department is informed, there are
no American citizens residing in Siam,
except missionaries. It is not believed
to be necessary to take any wpecial
measures for their protection. The
United States has no repiesentative in
Siam and the consul-general at Bangkok,
Mr. Boyd, is in this country at present,
leaving the office in charge of bis ion,

missionaries should le threatened,

Judge Burnett told a good atory on

Telegram. He says that when Mr.
Stevenson reached Missouri lie told the
people that if be ever left Illinois he
would come to Missouri; that be told
the iople of New Mexico the same
thing, and likewise the people of Ari

reached Needles the thermometer regis
tered 120 deg. in the sliade, and the
members of the party were wondering
if the vice-president would tell the peo
ple there that if he ever left Illinois he
would come to Needlei. "But he
didn't," said the judge. "There were
about 25 Indians standing around wear
ing nothing but blankets, and Mr.
Stevenson, instead ot tolling them if he
ever left Illinois be would come to
Needles, told their, if he ever changed
his i;arb he would adopt theirs."
