The cause is unknown. The New York Commercial Bulletin, to ascertain public opinion ou the silver ques- & tion aud on the expeudiency of stopping the coinage of the standard dollar, addressed - inquiries to a large number of persons sup posed to have well considered views on the auestiou"! and other prominent bankers and Financiers of Ohio, Pennsylvania and other middle aud eastern states. The points on which the answers, with but few exceptions agree, are : First, the coinage of silver should be definitely postponed. Next, meas ures should be takeu for protecting the fu ture use of silver, under an agreement with ' the leading commercial nations. The opin ions vary as what should be the forms ot auch agreement, but the impossibility of aav effective settlement of the general ques tious being accomplished, except through international co-operation, is generally ad mitted. Millions of squirrels are em migrating from the Mississippi side over to the Arkansas bore, at a point commencing about live miles below Memphis and extending down fur twenty miles.

Here's a state of tilings ! New York Times: The democrats lost the state through the efforts of John K. Mc Lean and his PHcrupubus ang. New York Sun: The result is a check for the democracy, and no explanation can chauge the fact ir render it any the less disagreeable. Cleveland Flaiudealer (dem.) : It is a vic tory for John Sherman. His hold on the Germans stood him in good stead, and he will grab the seuatorship for his pay. New York Tribune : It is clear that President Cleveland aud Governor Hoadlf did not get the splendid vindication tor which their, friends worked so long and s confidently. If verdicts of the people ever mean anything, this verdict cannot be reck oned insignificant. Bostou Herald (Mug) : The republican triumph iu Ohio is significant of two things: The failure of the democratic party to im plore the advantage which it gained in the election of President Cleveland, aud the un impaired cohesive power of the republican organization. Philadelphia Times, (Deui.J: The repub licans of Ohio have won a staving victory for fLii ofT v ear uiainst a houeful party iu . j o - - power both at Washington and Columbus. It will be so felt iu Pennsylvania and in New York, where the political pulse is more sensative to October signals of political cheer or distress. Nev York World: The result of the Ohio election is to be regretted, because it is an exnressiou of hostility to the demo crat, ic administration and will be paraded by the repuplicaus as an indication that a reaction has already set in against the dem ocracy aud in favor of the restoration of the republicaus to power. St. Faul Fioueer-Fress: Republican suc cess in Ohio is immeusly significant. It proves that the people, having shown the party errors aud having seen it profit by chastisement, are ready to stand by it in op position to an organization upon whom the highest honor confers no degree of the in telligence above that needed to gabble about the omnipotence of the spoils. Philadelphia Press: This result shows that the republican column, instead of being shattered by the natural defeat of last year, stands undismayed and unbroken. Demo cratic power at Washington and democratic efforts in the states have not shaken re pub lean faith or allegiance. The party comes .-..it from its temporary reverse with fresh courage aud renewed determination. Boston Transcript, (Mu.): The Ohio oil-Hoad ley-John McClean democracy went ..., uiit.h a dull thud yesterday. Jonn Sherman's personal strength in Ohio, ans from his successful career as a senator aud cabinet officer, is indisputable. Should the next legislature re-elect him United States senator he will become more powerful than ever in national republican politics. It will give him an immense start toward the next republican presidential nomination. WASHINGTON SEWS. The issue of standard dollars from the mints during the week ending October 17, was $1,028,750; during, the corresponding period of last year, $594,997. Shipments of fractional silver coin from October 1st to October 17, amounted to $567,559. Shipments of coin from the overcrowded vaults of the different sub-treasuries .to the treasury at Washington, since the general transfer began, September 3, amount, to about $26,000,000 in silver and $5,000,000 in gold. The $10,400,000 in silver brought fromjNew Orleans in naval vessels, is -in the above statement. All the gold came from San Francisco, from which place about $13,- 000,0o0 in gold had previously been sent to New York by registered mail. It is est mated it will take about month and a half to count coin already received at the treas- , . i : . l. . .1. ury. A. new ana luiproveo. wciymug ine was received at the department from the Philadelphia mint, aud will be used in weighing the coin. A Washington correspondent, who ap pears to speak with some authority, says the president is worRing a great many hours every day, many more than clerks in de partments and many more thau under of ficials who cornplaiu of the hardships ol their position. He allows himself absolute ly no more license than is actually necessary to preserve his health. He recogizes that he has made a mistake in some appoint ments, also that they have generally been the result of overcontidence in representa tives and senators, aud sometimes in cabinet officers, but always iu persons whom he ought to be able to trust. The agent at the tort Belknap Indian res ervation in northern Montana, has informed the iuterior department that a uumlier of Cree ludiaus, reiugecs irom the British pos sessions, have crossed the line into the res ervation, having iu their possession "silver ware aud articles of ladies' apparel, sup posed to have been captured during the Big Bear outbreak. The ageut requested that these intruders be escorted across he line and forbidden to enter the United States. The matter was referred to the secretary of state, who has replied that these Indiana cannot be arrested, except upon extradition by the British authorities, and that this government should not countenance any kidnapping of ludiaus. I he interior de partment is at a loss to know how the dan- tsrai refugee can be Tdsuuvtjd, under. Uu circu instances. The secretary of war has issued the fol lowing general order, which will heuuetortu be an additional army regulation.- "In tune of peace, details of not less thau one officer aud three enlisted meu will be kept con stantly under instruction ai:d practice in military signalling at each post in the Uni ted States, until the officers and all the men who have sufficient intelligence are profic ient iu the code of signalling by Hag, torch and heliography aud houieographic code with discs. The post commander will de tail an acting signal officer at each post, to give necessary instructions and supervise field practice. Monthly reports of in structions and practice will be rendered to the chief signal officer through the depart ment commanders. " The civil service commissiou has address ed a letter to President Clevelaud, calling his attention to an attempt by the Pennsyl vania republican committee to collect politi cal assessments in the departments, aud suggesting the propriety of making an in vestigation of the matter, with a view ot punishing all parties connected with it who can be reached by law. They say it is their belief Chairman Cooper, who is responsible for the begging circular, is not an employe of the government, and therefore cannot be reached. The letter suggested that congress lw asked to extend the law so as to cover such cases. The appointment of C. W. Roby to be postmaster at Portland, Or., settles a ques tion which has vexed the postomce depart ment for some time. The principal candi dates lor this office have already been given along with an outline of what was represen ted to be the feelings of the people in re gard to them. It is stated by persons from the state that Roby's appointment will cause dissatisfaction among the old democ racy of the state. A protest has also been filed against Mr. Daniel htewart, recently appointed postmaster at Walla Walla in Wash. Ty., on the ground that he is too old and that he is in the hands of certain re publicaus, who will practically run the of fice. Mr. Vilai stated that the protest would receive consideration.

The'Steamship Oceanic, which sailed from Sen Francisco for China last Saturday took away npirly 1100 Chinamen, and there were over 300 who wished to go but could not be carried by the ship. There were also 100 coolies who were from Portland, who exjiected to take passage on the vessel,4Bfc will be commpelled to wait un til the next steamer sails. A close estimate of the total losses by the recent Crocker fire place them at $775,000, the most costly tire San Francisco has ex perienced for twenty years. A 1 Little, a northern Pacific tie contractor of North Yakima made an assignment last week and on the 19th with friends, he had a knock-down fight with his employes who claim fraud. Little then had the assign ment dissolved and turned his property over to the bank for the benefit of his creditors. But Marshal George seized fifteen thousand ties aud four thousand cords of wood iu the name of the government, charging Little with despoiling the government lands.

"' The Berlin- correspondent of The Daily News says that nearly ail the powers have agreed to a conference on the Balkan ques tion, and that hope that peace will be main tained increases. Every available armed man has been sum moned for service. Tlu Burmese ministers have decided to stop the British envoy with the Indian government's ultimatum at the frontier. It is stated that as a result of the Pacific attitude of Bulgaria, Servia is disbanding a portion of her reserves. A Times London dispatch says: "Proba bly the world has never before witnessed uch a strangely perplexing situation as that which this week was seen m the Balkan peninsula, with hundreds of men being dragged into the field, with forced levies, half a dozen different states on the very threshold of hostilities, and with nobody able to guess how the various combatants will rauge themselves, once the die is cast. Austria aud Russia are preparing for war. The suppression of news has become one of the tine arts in both countries, but enough leaks out to render this certain, that Austria is now mobilizing 60,000 meu, who are be ing quietly got ready in Bosnia. A cablegram says it is reported from Sofia that there is a notable decrease in the war like fever which has prevailed since the Ronmelian revolt. The disposition of Prince Alexander of Bulgaria, owing to his hasty action in that affair, is not among the im possibilities.
