THE SILVER QUESTION.
London, Sept. 3. The silver ques
tion is assuming great interest in
financial and political circles here.
Alexander Delmar and Martin Frew
en, Leonard Jerome's son-in-law,
have been interviewed on both sidea
of the question. The former is of the
opinion that deluge and disaster are
threatened in America because silver
is likely to become demonetized. The
latter denies this likelihood and says:
"No question of the day is of tho
same importance to England as the
question of the future of silver. "We
in England require to know betimes
what action congress will take on
this issue. A fall of one-quarter
pence in tho price of silver per ounce
has absolutely dislocated our com
mercial relations with all those na
tions that use silver. "What then
might not bo the effect of the demon
etization of silver by a country of the
commercial importance of tho United
States? Surelv tho prospect of a
salo of S20,000,000 in bullion value,
and the cessation of all demand for
silver by the United States must sug
gest that such financial disaster as
this tho ago has not witnessed a
disaster that by effecting an immense
appreciation of gold would lead to
widespread repudiation of debts,
which England, tho great creditor
nation, would bo first to feel. The
quralk n of repeal of tho Bland act
should occupy tho attention of the
British government The trading
community of America knows that
the day it enters ou an exclusive gold
basis control of tho export trade in
wheat and cotton will be handed over
to India. England's position as a
gold monometallic country has, by
the help of free trade, reduced her to
the level of a mere dumping ground
for tho outside irorld to sift their
exchange in." In commercial circles
tho silver question in the United
States, and what congress will do,
will increase in iuterest Tho gener
al tone of tho press is that southern
and western congressmen of both
parties should combine to retain the
Bland bill.
STEAMSHIP WRECKED.
St. John, Sept. 2. The Allan lino
mail steamship Hanoverian is a total
loss, having gone ashore this morn
ing at Portugal cove, fourteen miles
north by west of Cape Bace. The
steamer Nimrod was dispatched this
afternoon to rescue tho passengers
aud crew, who are thought to be safe.
A gale of wind nnd a dense fog pre
vented tho steamer Nimroil from go
ing to the scene of the wreck. Tho
Hanoverian left Halifax at noon on
Monday, with fifty-seven passengers
and her normal crow. She experi
enced fine weather until nearing St.
Pierre island, when au impenetrablo
fog wjis encountered, and by false
steering, error of the compass or neg
lect to make soundings, the steamer
was driven at a high rato of speed
iuto Portugal cove, seven miles east
of Trepassy, where she now lies, a
total wreck. She passed over a num
ber of hidden rocks, which ripped
her bottom almost her whole length.
The main hold filled with water, aud
it is uot probablo the cargo cau be
saved. Tho passengers are now en
route to Trepassy, where they can
receive accommodations and comfort
until tho war ship Tentdot roaches
them, to convey them to St John's.
Other steamers follow to render as
sistance. A New York steamer of
the Bed Cross line has been signaled
from Cape Baco to proceed to the
scene of tho disaster. Steam tugs
have also been despatched to tho res
cue No loss of life nas been re
ported.
Pension Frauds.
Washington, Sept 3. There havo
enough facts como to light here to
justify tho belief that a corrupt ring
of clerks and higher omcials in the
pension office have been robbing the
government for many years past
Walter A. Shuckers, the new superin
tendent of the pension building, is
tho raau who should havo tho credit
for the discovery of this ring. The
whole matter is in the hands of the city
detective force and they are making
most strenuous efforts to get at the
bottom of the charges. Enough has
already been ascertained to send sev
eral of the suspected parties to the
penitentiary.
New OnnrNS, Sept 2. Tho work
of loading the Swatara with silver
coin from tho mint began yesterday.
Floats are employed m the transport
ation of tho silver which is placed
on wagons at tho mint vaults. The
Swatara brought 2,000 wooden box
es, strapped with iron. A squad of
marines accompanies the wagon to
the vessel, where tho silver is depos
ited in the magazine. It is proposed
that the Swatara and tho lanlic
shall take between $10,000,000 and
$12,000,000 of tho S1G,500,000 in the
mint
BeriiIn, Sept 2. Germany says:
"Ono hundred and forty thousand
Prussians have just been expelled
from Warsaw. They were arrested
and chained together aud compelled
to march, the women following tho
men, and stopping in prisons." The
Posen Courier published a long list
of wealthy Poles who havo been ex
pelled from Prussia.
There are two sides to every ques
tion, and as sure as you are born tho
other man, by Bome blunderinc fatal
ity, always takes the wrong side.
MADE THE CHINAMEN GO.
Cheyenne, Sept 2. The Leader
nas tne ioiiowmg special irom noes
Springs, Wye: The largest coal
mines in the entire Union Pacific
system are at Bock Springs, 250 miles
west of Cheyenne. The company re
cently imported a large number of
Chineso to take the placo of white
men. This afternoon the entire forco
of white miners, about 150 strong, or
ganized and armed with shotguns
marched to Chinatown. After firing
a volley into the air they reloaded
and ordered the Chinamen to leave.
The order was obeyed at once, the
Chinamen fleeing to tho hills like a
drove of sheep, closely pursued by
the miners, who fired several volleys
after the fugitives with fatal effect.
The Chinese quarters were then set
on fire, and thirty-nino houses owned
by the company destroyed, with their
contents. The miners next visited
various mines in the camp, unearthed
all the Chinamen at work therein and
told them" to flee for their lives. Of 400
Chinamen hero this morning not ono
remains. All are in tho adjacent hills,
heading for Green river, fourteen
miles west Seveu were killed out
right by shots fired by the miners,
and many were wounded. It is said
that several feeble and helpless from
disease perished in the flames. Sher
iff Young arrived from Green river on
a special train this evening, with a
posso of deputies, but too late to pre
vent the mob from carrying out their
plans. Tho miners quietly dispersed
after making sure of the departure
of the celestials, and all is quiet now.
THE C. &. O. IIOAI).
San Fkancisco, Sept. 3. Colonel
Charles F. Crocker, of tho California
and Oregon Bailroad, said: "Wo will
work a small forco of men."
"Will tho road certainly be built?"
"That depends entirely on our abil
ity to raise the monoy needed on
bonds. We have not got tho money
needed, and wo depend upon the con
fidence of capitalists. It will bo no
trouble to raise tho monoy whon the
land grant is secured. The people of
California aro anxious to seo the road
pushed to completion.''
Victoria, Sep. 2. A Chinaman who
arrived on tho Elder, paid $50 head
tax, and was allowed to land. This
is the first money collected under the
Chineso regulation act.
The simples in tho laboratory of
nature are health giving. What can
be more reviving than tho odor of the
pino forests? And when it is remem
bered that St. Jacobs Oil has in it the
essential elements which give this life
and strength, it can bo well under
stood what a boon it is to the afllicted.
Work on the Palouse branch of the
O. R fc N. between Moscow nnd Col
fax is progressing rapidly. Tho en
tiro grado has been completed and
track is being laid rapidly, and by
tho 10th of this month, Pullman,
eighteen miles from Colfax, will be
reached. The line will be completed
and in readiness for occupation by
September 25th.
