THE EXPECTED RESULT.
Great Britain Will Kot Encourage
Use of Silver.
the
New York, Oct. 22. A dispatch to
the Tribune from London says:
The reply of the British govern
ment to the monetary proposals of the
United States and France has been
prepared by the chancellor of the ex
chequer and will probably, be pub
lished n tte Iondon press, before the
end of the weei. 4t may be sum
marized as a courteous refusal to enter
tain the prooositions submitted by the
two governments and an equally
rjolite idvitation to continue the
negotiations. The refusal is unequivo
cal in all points and the invitation to
go on with the monetary diplomacy is
a transparent compromise to save the
focliners of the strong minority of
bimetalists in the cabinet.
The ministry, acting upon the in
vitation of the financial experts of the
Indian government, declines to reopen
the mints to silver, This was the
chief concession which was asked by
the two governments, and it has- been
refused under various pleas of ex
pediency and necessity based upon
the existing conditions of Indian
finance.
The chancellor of the exchequer
also discusses the other concessions
which were considered in the various
conferences with the American am'
French ambassadors and the three
envoys, and virtually refuses to act
favorably upon any of the proposalf.
At the same time he expresses the
willingness of the government to pro.
long conferences and consider any
other proposals which may be- pre
sented. He suggests no alternative
plan of his own, but leaves th?two
governments free to act upon their
own responsibility if they choose to
open their mints to silver or to take
any other measure? in the interest of
bimetalisra.

to authorize two more regiments of

there should be at least three military

On the Eve of a Revolution.
New York, Oct, 25. The Herald
says:
Portj Ricans of this city are talking
about another uprising in Spain's
minor colony in the West Indies. They
throw out dark hints about an expedi
tion that is daily expected to land, and
talk with confidence of being able to
sweep Captain-General Marin and 5000
Spanish regular troops into tho sea.
The Spanish volunteers, who number
about 7000 on the island, are not taken
into consideration, but are dismissed
by the plotters as men who neyer fight.
Several Porto Ricans have arrived
in the city within the last week with
news from the island that has beeu
tied up by the fires of revolution
imong the exiles who are here. They
declare that Porto Rico will not accept
autonomy, and that an uprising will
take place before Spain has an op
portunity to inaugurate the proposed
reforms. The revolutionary junta of
which Dr J. Julio Henna is the head,
which has been inactive since the abor
tive attempt of March 24, has been
aroused by the news from the island.
Meetings has been held, messengers
dispatched and an air of mystery as
sumed by those who are interested in
the project of wresting Porto Rico
from the grip of Spain.
It is said the services of a Cuban in
surgent with th6 rank of major-general
and two Santo Domingo gener
als have been secured for the coming
revolution, and that aid will will be ob
tained from Hayti and San Domingo
as well as from this country.

Fakmington, Oct. 23. Orvlile Hay
den, a young man, aged 21 years, was
murdered by highwaymen shortly be
fore midnighht last night.
A number of young men were as
sembled in a saloon just across the
Idaho line. Two of them started for
their homes in the town, and at a bend
in the road were held up and robbed
by the highwaymen and compelled to
conceal themselves in a fence corner
under penalty of death. A few minutes
later, Hayden, his brother and a com
panion came along, and were ordered
to throw up their hands,. They made
a show of resistance, and the robbers
fired two shots from revolvers. One
ball' 'entered Hayden's breast and
passed entirely through his body. He
ran back to the saloon, fell across the
doorstep and quickly expired. The
robbers ran off in the darkness.
Princeton Annlvevsavy.
Princeton, N. J., Oct. 22. The one
hundred and fifty-first birthday of
Princeton university was celebrated
here today. More than usual interest
was manifested in the commemoration
on account of the presence of ex-Pres;-dent
Grover Cleveland and Lord Aber
deen, governor-general of Canada.
The academic procession of Princeton
trustees, faculty, alumni and under
graduates formed at Marquand chapel
at 7 o'clock this morning and inarched
to Alexander hall. The body was led
by Grover Cleveland, the Earl of Aber
deen and President Potter. The ex
ercises were opened by Dean Murray
with a prayer. Then Grover Cleveland
read an address on "The Self-made
Man."
A False Report.
Ottawa, Out., Oct. 22. A report
telegraphed from Victoria that ha
Canadian government has decided to
charge duty on every class of goods
that goes into the Klondike country,
including miners' packs, is not cor
rect. There has been no change in
the customs laws affecting that
country, and miners are still permitted
to take in an outfit free of duty when
not exceeding $100 in value.

Seattle, Oct. 24. The steamer
Humboldt arrived last night at 10
o'clock, with five men direct from
D.iwson City, leaving there September
3, and three men from Miuock and
other points oa the ifukon. They say
no more gold will come out this fall,
as this steamer has taken the last of
those who have come down the Yukon
The river is already frozen hard, and
the river boats are laid up for the win
ter. The Humboldt left St. Michaels
October 9.
The five men from Dawson are John
F. Miller and Frank E. Sims, of this
city; C. A. Harrison, of Atchison, Kan.;
William Dubell, of New Jersey, and
William Braund, o Black Diamond,
Wash. They were passengers on the
river steamer Margaret, which caie
down the river to within 120 miles of
St. Michaels. When they found the
river blocked with ice, they resolved
to come overland at all hazards to St,
Michaels. For seven days they crept
forvrard through terrible wind and
snow storms. Some of the in fell id
their tracks and had to be helped by
their stronger companions. They
crossed rivers covered with a thin coat
ing of ice by lying down and pu-hing
their packs before them, and at night
they sought shelter from the storm by
huddling in an Eskimo tent, or entire
ly unprotected from the biting wind,
save by blankets,
Of tho 5000 or 6000 people in Dawson
and vicinity, at least 1000 will be
obliged to flee from impending starva
tion. Up to September 3, when the
Miller party left Dawson, new arrivals
numbered from three to 20 per day,
and there is no doubt that the ratio
will be continued all winter. Three
hundred men were working ia the
gulches, and in the hills were several
hundred prospectors, all of whom know
nothing of the shortage, and were de
pending on the company stores for
provisions.
One way of relief ia open to the
miners. Five hundred or 1000 could
winter at Circle City, 100 miles below
Dawson, and draw their supplies by
dog train from Fort Yukon. Circle
City has 500 houses, and is said to be
the largest log-cabin town in the world.
John F. Miller, however, say- there
will not necessarily be starvation, but
Certainly the miners will suffer ex
treme privation.
Five hundred men intended to come
down the river, but that is closed, and
they cannot get out. There is no
doubt that the people of Dawson have
been alive to the situation for six
monthg.

THE NOTE ANSWERED.
Spain Says She lias Done all in Bar Power
to End the War.
Madrid, Oct. 23. In the special
note to Minister W&odford, the gov
ernment declares that Spain has done
all in her power to end the war in
Cuba, and oitea the many sacrifices
which have been made by the nation,
the number of troops sent to Cuba and
the reforms which are carried out on
the island, which are fully described.
The note ends with the statement
that "Spain will not admit the right
of any forpign power to Interfere in
any of her- affairs."
El Tempo publishes with reserve the
announcement that the reply of the
Spanish government to the United
States, presented to General Woodford,
the American minister at Madrid, de
clares that, if the United States does
not stop the sailing of filibustering ex
peditions from American ports, Spain
will re-establish the right to search
vessels anchoring in Cuban waters.
El Liberal thinks a rupture possible
as the result' of negotiations between
Spain and the United States, and
thinks Spain ought to avoid this rup
ture, so far as duty and honor permit,
but that the government should act In
a spirit of moderation, and" that the
nation will under no circumstances
authorize a renunoiation of Spain's
rights,

nation of the strife in Cuba by grant
ing substantial reforms.
While not fully advised as to Spain's
reply to Secretary Sherman's note,
presented by Minister Woodford in
Septerber, its general character is
known here, and it is not anticipated
by the president that any friction will
arise between the two countries as a
result of the exchange of notes.
The prime object the president had
in view when General Woodford went
to Madrid was bringing about an im
proved condition of affairs in Cuba be
fore congress reassembled. Spain's
reply and her instructions to the new
captain-general of Cuba will show an
advanced step in that direction.
Miners Are Shut In.
Victoria, Oct. 25. Miners who
came down on the Farallon from Dyea
and who left Dawson City about 40
days ago, say that the day before they
left Hansed, one of the managers of
the Alaska Commercial Company, ar
rived in a canoe and told of the aband
onment ot tne enoris to get iooa up
the river. Fully 400 miners at. once
made preparations to start out over
th. trails, but the citizens' committee
j reiused to allow them sutncient pro
visions for the journey, so, save those
who had already started, all will have
to remaiu and share in the privations
at Dawson.

A FISH'S MEMORY.

We have to live such busy, cyclopaedic

sometimes to turn aside into some quiet
corner and watch is specialist at work.

be only the eye of a fly or the digestive
apparatus of a caterpillar, but 'be de

all the noise and human struggles go

Ludwdg Edinger, is absorbed at present
la the question: "Have fish a memory V
and he has -written to the Lancet to in
vite information on the subject. It
may seem a trivial question and the
brain, of a fish may be a very small quan
tity, but a great many little thing' in
nature are worth studying, and even n
the problem cannot be solved it will

Every disciple of Izaak vValton will

street, and, therefore, we cannot try
experiments, and the only contribution
we can make to tne discussion to bsk
why anglers have to be so particular
about the make and color of their arti

fish have vision without a sense of mem

Dick's Remark After tho
Aeel-smt
Bad Happened.
One of the men employed in a cer
tain Yorkshire stone quarry is a man, of
few words. Indeed, his popularity with
his mates has been attributed to the
fact that Dick could never spare enough
words to get np a decenrt, quarrel with
anyone, says Clips.
The other day a huge block or stone.
weighing several tons, was being raised
by means of a steam crane. When near
the top the chain suddenly gave way.
Dick was at work 60 feet below wnen
the accident occurred. Fortunately he
realized his danger, though only just
in time, and sprang from the ledge on
which hft stood to another at some du
tsnce. A second latter and the huge block was
broken into a thousand pieces on the
solid bed of stone.
Trembling in every limb, the owner
of the quarry, who had witnessed the
affair, hurried to where lack was stand
ing and seized -rim by the hand.
-Whatever would nave nappenea ii

The workman glanced back at tne
heap of debris on the ledge.

Cheap Rallroadlna.
It is quite true, says the Engineering

ceeded in giving to its inhabitants a
very dheep means of locomotion, and at
the same time owns a valuable asset for
large amount of its national debt. The
freight rates are already the lowest
known. A bill introduced by the gov
ernment proposes to abolish return
.tickets and only to Issue direct tickets
between all stations. One will be able
to travel the whole lenpth and breadth
of Denmark third-class for a sum not
exceeding $1.50, and the distance cov
ered is about 300 by 200 miles. This is
a reduction of 50 per oent.

HIS FIRST REFUSAL.
Cross PoIIeemaa and a Passtsw Ma-
i irua oare m am .
f There is a big policeman at one of the
crossings on Fifth avenue whose duty;
it is to prevent people from immolat
ing themselves on the altar of their own
carelessness, and to this end he beckons
and warns and invites by a wave of
his friendly hand or a command of his
stentorian voice. At the same time he
smiles in the most reassuring manner,
says the Chicago Tribune. .
A few days ago, when the mud was .
spread in liquid abundance over that ;
portion of Chicago, this policemen,
beckoned to a stately matron of ma-'.
ture years to cross between an inoom-
ing street car and an outgoing dray, '
with several minor vehicles wedged be- -tween.
But the matron refused with a
severe shake of her dignified head and .
waited.
Come over, I tell you!" roared the
big policeman, with his regulation ,
smile.
She waited until nothing1 movable '
was in sight, and without deigning to '
notice the man of helmet and visor
sailed past his outstretched hand. A
broad smile was on his weather-beaten
face, as, nothing daunted by the scorn
of the haughty dame, he said:
You're the first gur-r-1 that ever re
fused me." '
The astonished woman looked at him -
in frozen astonishment, but the beam
ing smile an his broad face was too
much for her.
"I believe it," she said, with an
swering smile, as she went her way.
