William F. Harrity, secretary of the
common we 1th, is to be made chairman
of the National Democratic committee,
succeeding Calvin S. Brice, who, it has
been announced, will retire after the
next national convention. The fact that
Mr. Harrity is to be chosen after the
November elections to fill the vacancy
in the national committee occasioned by
the death of ex-Congres6inan Scott, of
Erie, is regarded as a strong basis for
the report. It is also reported that the
plan has the approval of ex-President
Cleveland and Governor Pattison, the
confidence and friendship of both oi
whom is enjoyed to an unusual degree
by Mr. Harr ty.

JAMES STEPHENS.
The Fenian Brad Centre la Baolt In
Dublin.
After but little has been heard of him
for lO years, at this juncture in Irish
affairs James Stephens reappears in
Dunlin. He is now 70 years old, and it
is not likely that he will be active in
agitation, particularly as theie is an in
dictment for h gh treason standing
against him in Dublin. The o.d man
lives on an annuity bought for him a
few years ago and his admirers are try
ing to raise monev wherewit i to buy
him a house in Dublin. It is needless
to say that the head centre of the Fenian
movement has no sympathy with lilad
stonian Irishmen and that his intimates
anion.' the Irish people are of the more
advanced school. The nearest approach
to Fenianism now in existence in Ire
land is, perliips, the Young Ireland
Society of Dublin, which contends lor
the policy, identical with that oi the
organization of which Stephens was the
head, which would make open war for
the absolute indpendnce o' Ireland,
ft is conjectured that Mr. Stephens may
have an understanding with John
O'Leary, leader of the Dublin organ.za

we believe the Panama canal will be
opentd in five years, perhaps less; then
there are two great enterprises under
consideration that will attect JNorth
western interests greatly; one is the
establish nent of a line of steamers be
tween Puget Sound, China and Japan.
The other is the laying of a submarine
cable between the same places. These
enterprises are not fill y matured, but 1
assure you they are almost certainties.
1 am not interested in either but should
like to be, as they will be very profit
able.
Sims was urged to tell who were
the men back of the two great enter-
pri es but he retuseii, except in so lar as
stating that part were Englishmen and
the others were Eastern capitalists.

Wabhinoton, D. a, Oct. 20 A feeling
111 lavor ot international bimetallism
seems to be growing and to be likely to
prevail in European cabinets 11 the
leading European powers can be eon
vinced that the United States does not
Intend to plunge into iree coinage.
Several gentlemen of high standing
privately agreed early in the summer to
make somo inquiries of foreign linan
ciers with a view to an international
agreement and to report the results to
the President and secretary of the treas
ury without expense to the government.
They discovered so friendly a feeling to
the use 01 silver in Europe that they
recently asked and obtained credentials
from our government showing who they
are and what their instructions are,
without having authority to commit the
United States officially to any program.
The fact that these credentials have
been a-ked for is regarded by the Presi
dent as very encouraging and to indi
cate a feeling in England, Prance and
Germany in regard to the demonetiza
tion of silver. The gentlemen who have
been making the inquiries would not have
asked for such credentials if they had
not felt the time approaching for serious
negotiations with European powers, for
they have no personal or financial in
terests magnifying their office.

Tne Judge Bet tlia Verdict Aside.
Detroit, Mich., Oct. 27 Because
"twelve men good and true" relieved
the monotony of thnir deliberations in
the jury room by drinking beer, Judge
tiarner, of the Wayne county court, to
day set aside a verdict for $90,000. ' The
verdict was given to A. Backus, Jr., and
sons against the Union Depot company
of Detroit for damages alleged to nave
been caused to Backus' property by the
erection of an elevator's tracks in front
of their premises. The award has
started a fierce clamor by other property
owners for other payments. Judge
Garner denounced the verdict as ex
horbitant and censured the jury for
drinking the liquor.
