Ei-8oreUrj Foiter'i View. Sa! FraScisco, June 7. Ex-Secretary of State John W. Foster, who ar rived here yesterday from India and China, in speaking of the trade con ditions in the far East, said: I find a general and widespread business depres sion prevailing throughout India, tie straits settlement and wherever British merchants and commerce is extended in the East. The cause of it is attributed to the heavy decline in silver, which Is the single currency of the countries of Asia, and this decline, it is there be lieved, has been brought about by the closing of the India mints and the re peal of the Sherman act. I have frequently been called upon, in those countries, to defend the statesman like action of President Cleveland in con vening congress and bringing about the repeal of the Sherman law, which action has been regarded in the East as a step towards placing the United States on a single gold basis, and I have bad occa sion to recall the fact that both political parties in our country are strongly com mitted to a bimetalic standard. On the other hand, the decline of silver has not resulted in serious detriment to China and Japan. Their export products are sold for gold and when converted into national currency, yield much srreater re turn than formerly, whereas, the price of labor and domestic commodities have not as yet materially risen. Urectfirldgt'i Sooky Boad. Lkxinotox, Ky., June 11. About 6000 strangers were here today to hear W. L. Owens and Evan Settle, the can didates for congress, in opposition to Colonel Breckinridge. They spoke in the opera house to a crowd only meas ured by the walls. Owens made sev eral allusions to Colonel Breckinridra, but made no new attack. He said how ever, that he stood by every word ut tered in his famous Paris speech, when he attacked Breckinridge bitterly. He said if anybody took offense at what he had said, he wanted that person to come to him like a man, and not sneak off be hind that long-eared, long-haired irre sponsible, crazy brute,CharlesC Moore. Moore published in his prohibition paper several columns last week against Owens, and this allusion is a reflection on Breckinridge, who is said by Owens men to have furnished Moore the infor mation. Settle and Owen spoke again tonight at the courthouse. The Body of Hoick Found. Salkm. June 12.

Ha tired To Long. Chicago, June 11. Additional com plications may arise in the case of as sassin Prendergast. Judge Chetlin is, not sitting in the criminal court, and the case came up today before Judge Payne. When the continuance agreed upon was submitted to him he refused to enter the order, saying he knew of no reason why the continuance should ba granted. The matter went over temporarily. Prender gast insisted on making a speech. "I am defendant here," he said. " I want no continuance. The question to be de termined is my guilt or innocence, not my insanity Murder is a malicious tak ing of human life; that crime 1 have not committee." The prisoner was thrust into a chair by the bailiffs. X
