BATTLE TO BE BEGUN AT ONCE
tor George, of Mississippi, Talk of
the Rapid Spread or Free'SUnr
8UtlBUi
Chicago, May 9. The executive com
mittee of the Honest Money League baa
decided to come oat and fight the silver
men in the open. Work of organizing
the wards of Chicago against free silver
will be begun at once. This, members
say means the firstfatep in the first bat
tle for the national delegation which
will be elected in 1898. IThe . work will
begin in Cook county, bnt the agent of
the league will press it till it ramifies
the state.
In taking this step, the governing
committee has determined to leave
to the people the matter of the
adoption of a financial pledge of national
delegates. Members say the committee
found it best to ignore the state conven
tion, but since tbe delegates have been
chosen, they are . for delegates whote
opinions on money will have some
weight.
The committee of state organization of
tbe league has issued an address to
democrats of the state. It says that the
aggressive measures taken by the silver
men make it imperative that immediate
action should be taken to let the people
of the state know what would be the re
sult of the abrogation of sound currency.
The address says that tbe time for tem
porizing and compromising has passed,
and that the decisive fight must at once
be made against the silver men. It ends
in urging tbe organization of an auxiliary
to the honest money league in every
county of the state. It is signed by A.
Goodrich, John Mayo Palmer, William
C. Assay, W. E. Thorn and F. S. Bogle.
The members of the democratic central
committee say they are not disturbed by
the action of the league.
A Disclosure. Not a Growth.
Cabbollton, Miss., May 9. In an in
terview on the money queetion Senator
George said : "The present exhibition
ot a sentiment in favor of free coinage is
rather a disclosure than a growth. The
people have never been satisfied with
the act demonetizing silver in 1873.
That act was a Bnap judgement taken
against them by a parliamentary trick."
The senator then quoted the national
democratic platform favoring gold and
silver money of the constitution, and
said :
"The language was plain and un
equivocal. Nor was it understood to
mean, as afterwards claimed by tbe gold
monometaliets, that we should only
have free coinage except by internation
al agreement. - That such' agreement is
now made a condition of free coinage of
silver is a discrimination against silver,
The republican national conventions of
1873 and 1892 declared in equally em
phatic terms for tbe free coinage of
silver, as did the populist convention of
1892. It will thus be seen that in every
way possible the American people have
from 1877 to the present time declared
for remonetization.
"What has happened in the last few
months is not a rapid spread of free
coinage sentiment, but a general and em
phatic expression of disgust at the delay
in giving voice and iegal force to the
wishes and sentiments of the mass of the
people, and of resentment at attempts
to stifle the voice and to fasten on tbe
people gold monometalism.
"I think republican leaders will not
declare for gold monomatilism, or what
is the same thing, against the coinage of
silver unless by international agreement.
I think it is doubtful whether they will

Were Betrayed by friends.
Guthrib, O.' T., May 9. Newcomb,
alias "Bitter Creek," and Pierc, alias
'Dynamite Dick, "leaders of the desper
ate Dalton-Dooling gangof outlaws, who
were killed last week, werebetrayed by
friends. They werejentrapped into the
lattei's borne and cowardly murdered
while they slept under their host's roof.
The killing.according to the story of a
neighbor, was done by tbe Dunns, who
had been promised large rewards by the
deputies, who claimed later' to have
made the capture of tbe outlaws. Tbe
latter's friends have sworn 'vengeance,
and the Dunns are armingJ.to protect
themselves.
The Dunns were in In gal Is on the
afternoon of the killing, and went home
with a large amount of whisky and beer.
It had been arranged to have Sallie Niles,
a sweetheart of "Dynamite Dick," and
the two outlaws meet at the Dunn house
that night for a big time. By midnight
the two outlaws were badly under the
influence of liquor, and shortly after
wards went to' sleep, heavily armed as
usual, and without removing their
clothes. While in this condition, it is
asserted, tbe Dunns perforated them
with Winchester bullets and buckshot.
An examination of the bodies showed
that all bullets and buckshot bad gone
into the bodies in such a way as to leave
no other conclusion than that the men
were lying down when shot. One of the
Dunn brothers was brought here a few
days after tbe capture and lodged in the
federal jail but in two days was turned
loose.
The Dunns are lying very low. Their
house is an arsenal and they give evi
dence ot expecting a raid on them every
night, as Newcomb and Pierce had
many friends in that country.
General Campos Buffering;
from am
Old IVonnd.
Kew York, May 9. A special' from
Havana says: General Campos sailed
from Cienf negos on tbe 2d for Manzanillo
and Santiago. Well-informed people
maintain be will soon have to return
He is said to be in good health. The old
wound from a bomb thrown in Barcelona
never quite healed, and gives him much
trouble. Some persons say be has told
friends he fears be will never leave Cuba
alive.
The Spanish gunboat Alicea has left,
presumably to guard tbe Florida coast
The reports that General Lacret bad
landed, and that Gomez is marching
west with a body of men are confirmed,
bnt no details can be obtained.
The expedition expected here from
Key West or Tampa i reported ready
for sailing.
The most astonishing feature of the
war has been the considerate behavior
of the rebels. They have not thus far
pillaged nor burned in this as in tbe
first revolution.
The Queen May Abdicate.
London, May 9. Much gossip is heard
with regard to the queen's 76th birth
day anniversary on Mav 24. It is not so
much the festivities which are to be con
nected with this event which form the
subject of gossip as tbe fact that it is
freely rumored that her majesty will ab
dicate on that day, and after that tbe
Prince of Wales will reign as King Ed
ward VIII. "It is learned that the queen
expressed her desire to abdicate at a
meeting not long ago, at which the
Prince of Wales, Lord Bosebery and at
least two members of the cabinet were
present.
If her majesty surrenders the crown
on that day she will have reigned 58
years, the longest reign of any monarch
of the 19th century.

Any one who has ever had an a tack
of inflammatory rheumatism will rejoice
with Mr. J. A. Stumm, 220 Boyle
Heights, Los Angeles, over his fortunate
escape from a siege . of that distressing
ailment. Mr. Stumm is foreman of
Merrian's confectionery establishment,
Some months ago, on' leaving the heated
work room to run across the street on an
errand, he was caught out in the rain
The result was that when ready to go
borne that night he was unable to walk
owing to inflammatory rheumatism. He
was taken home, and on arrival was
placed in "front of a good fire and
thoroughly rubbed with Chamberlain's
Pain Balm. During the evening and
night he was repeatedly bathed with this
liniment, and by morning was relieved
of all rheumatic pains. He now takes
especial pleasure in praising Chamber
Iain's Pain Balm, and always keeps a
bottle of it in the bouse. For sale by

Pittsburg, May 9. The National tube
works, of McKeesport, have granted
tbeir 400 employes an increase of 10 per

of pipe. "

He says: "I told him of Chamber
Iain's Colic, Cholera and Diarrhoea

can vouch for its having cured me,
