New York. June 20.—The World’s
Washington special says:
President Cleveland has decided to
•zert every influence within his prov
ince to accomplish the repeal ol the
Sherman act, without compromise or
anbstitnte of any kind, as soon as possi
ble after the extraordinary session con
venes in Septemner. The silver men
have been so strong in numbers and so
strenuous in their demands in recent
congresses that few have believed that
the act could be repealed without some
concession. A month ago the president
himself considered the prospect ex
tremely doubtful. Since then, howev
er, the people have become better ac
quainted with the operations of the law
now in force, and the demand for its
feptu] is no longer confined to the east,
but lias readied both the west andsoutli
and is daily growing in those sections
ef the country. The president thinks
it will continue to grow during the
summer months, and the indications
seem so strong to his mind that he has
determined to urge the plan of no coin-
ptcunce and all his efforts, so far as
silver is concerned, between now and
Kept. 1 will he exerted in that direc
tion.
This does not mean that the presi
dent is a relentless enemy of the white
metal or that he has reached the con
clusion that it can be dispensed with,
fin the contrary, nobody better appre
ciates the fact that .here is not a suffi
cient amount of gold in the world to
meet the requirements of trade, hut the
whole question of silver has become so
muddled in the minds of both legisla
tors and people Rince the Bland act be
came operative that he considers it ab
solutely necessary to brush away all
the cobwebs which now obstruct the
vision before attempting a final solution
of the problem. Using a homely but
pertinent expression, lie thinks that the
country “has had its head in a basket"
so far as silver is concerned, owing to
the incessant discussion of tho different
phases of tho subject, mid the first
thing to do to obtain the advantage of
Intelligent action is to remove the
basket; in other words, to repeal all sil
ver legislation and then take sufficient
time to prepare a plan for tho proper
use of silver which shall be both sensi
ble and permanent.
Personally, the president is not a mo-
nometalist. To say that he is because
he believes it wise for tho time being to
return to the gold basis is quite as ab
surd as the thoroughly exploded charge
of his opponents that because he be
Jieves in a reduction of the tariff be is
necessarily a free trader.
The reasons which induce him to take
bis present position are exactly as stated
above. There is, however, an additional
factor of the greatest importance which
he has been obliged ' to consider, and
which has influenced in no small de
gree his conclusion. This is the effect
which the unconditional repeal of the
Sherman act is sure to have upon other
nations. The first session of the inter
national monetary conference failed not
only to produce but even to point to
wards a solution of the problem which
would lie mutually satisfactory. The
cause of this failure to an international
agreement was apparent at the time,
while the United States was willing to
buy the silver bullion of the world and
pay for it in gold, all that the other na
tions could dusire was being accom
plished to their eminent satisfaction,
because they were not compelled to
bear any share of the burden.
The disposition which they manifest
ed still exists and will surely continue
while the Sherman act remains upon
the statute books. Bqt the moment it
is repealed the other nations, especially
France, whose interest in silver is far
greater than thgt of the United States,
cannot fail to appreciate the necessity
for definite action. The president be
lieves that the first session of the con
ference demonstrated conclusively that
the only way to bring the other nations
to tei ms is to use their own weapons,
which, because of its food products and
natural resources, this country can use
to far greater advanta ge and much less
sacrifice than either England, Germany
or France. In a purely selfish game,
auch as the other nations showed a dis
position to play last winter, the United
States can wield the strongest olnb.and
the unconditional repeal of the Sher
man act will be a notice to all the world
that it is folly awake to its opportunity
and means to exert the power which it
possesses to its own advantage.
The president believes, therefore, that
the delegates to the monetery confer
ence, which is expected to reassemble
in November, will be in a far better po
sition than they were last winter, pro
vided, of course, tho existing law be
wiped off the statue books in the mean
time. He is convinoed that under such
conditional the other powers, instead of
repelling all advances, as they have
done thus far, will be only too glad to
meet this government half way. If thia
hope should be fulfilled it is easy to
the possibility of a settlement all the
time, and certainly to the satisfaction
•f tnis country, of the most vexatious
ef existing problems.

Washington, June 20.—The presi
dent has made Paul B. Trammell, of
Georgia, collector internal revenues for
the district of Georgia.
Hon. Paul Trammell is a member of
the legislature from Whitfield county.
He was a member of the previous legis
lature and speaker pro tem. of the
house. He represented his district pre
vious to that time in the Georgia sen
ate.
Mr. Trammell is about 85 years old,
has a wife and children, and resides in
Dalton, Ga. He is now in Washington.
He is the son of Colonel L. N. Tram
mell, chairuian of the railroad commis
sion of Georgia.
He was backed by both of Georgia’s
senators, and nine out of the 11 con
gressmen.
The President has offered the Ha
waiian mission to J. Proctor Kuott of
Kentucky, who has the offer under con
sideration, and will make known bis
determination in a day or two.
“What ia your idea of perpetual motion?”

“The average World’s fair visitor,”

“You have some, too, I see”
“Only 11. I'm waiting now for Cousin
Selina and the children. They want to see

“All of them da I fed sorry for Josie,
though. Did you see the elderly couple
she was showing the sights yesterday ? ”
“Keep your sympathy for mef my dear.
Josie doesn’t need it. They are her god
parents, and when they are gone she will

overshoe, which will enable herlfl- go to a
sanitarium or a nice, quiet lunatic asylum
for a good rest. I wish I had her luck.”
“So do I—we have an engaged girl at our
bouse”
“You poor thing!”
“Yea. She nnd I are sleeping in a folding
bed in the parlor—at least we are supposed
to sleep there. He comes to see her every
evening, and they sit and look injured un
til we all leave the parlor.”
“Of course”
“But that isn’t the worst of it. He starts
to go at 10:30.”
“Oh, well, I”
“At II they commence to quarrel. At
11:30 she returns his ring, and he rushes
madly out, banging the door after him.”
“But you get to lied then?”
“Oh, yes, 1 get to bed, but she insists on

“And do you wake him?"
“Wake himf No, I don’t. I waked him

has declined to admit the fact, and the

Colonel Blount is soon to vacate.
It is not known who suggested Mr.

eagerly seized upon this Kentuckian,
and after a personal interview offered
him th6 appointment.
Mr. Knott’s legal practiced large and

for the present crisis and will no donbt

A Writ Refused.
Judge Bradley in the district supreme
court has rendered a decision refusing a
writ of mandamus to George T. Pulaski
to compel the civil service commission
to approve his reinstatement as a sub
stitute letter carrier. Pulaski passed
the civil service examination for a posi
tion, aud in August, 1892. his name was
placed on the eligible list for appoint
ment. On January 23, 1893, Postmaster
Sherwood, of Washington, made a re
quisition upon the civil service com
mission for a candidate for appoint
ment.
Three names were supplied. Pulaski
was selected from the list and received
notice from the postmasters of his ap
pointment. He was dropped from the
rolls by directien of the. postmaster gen
eral under instruction of the civil ser
vice commission that the appointment
was irregular.
Palaski contended he was unlawfully
removed from his position, and applied
for a writ of mandamus to compel the
postmaster general to reinstate him,
and the commission to approve his re
instatement. „
Judge Bradley discussed in detail the
civil service law and the points made
j the petitioner, and reached the con-
usion that it was apparent from the
facts in the case that Pulaski having

maliciously, “for when the others ask me

“Good,” said the girl with the Eton suit.
