A IMG GATHERING OF GOLD MEN
AT WASHINGTON.
EX-FRESIDENT CLEVELAND SPEAKS
Declare# Free Silver Men Are Demagogues
and That Republican# are “Protection
Mad”—Well Known Men Present.
The animal dinner of the Reform
Club was given Saturday night in the
new ballroom of the Hotel Waldorf at
New York.
Representative men from all parts
of the United States who played a
prominent part, in the recent campaign
of the gold democrats were present.
When the list of invited guests was
made public it was generally under¬
stood tlijil tbe would speeches which would
be delivered in a largo measure
iiidica'c the policy of the wing of the
democratic party in the next presiden¬
tial campaign.
John DeWitt Warner presided. At
bis right sat ex-I’resident Cleveland
and on his left was ex-Postmaster
General W. L. Wilson.
The toasts and those who responded
to them were as follows:
“Present Problems”---Grover Cleve-
land.
“Hound Currency”. John G. Car¬
lisle.
“Tariff Reform”—William L. Wil¬
son.
“ Municipal Administration ”—Ed¬
ward M. Shepard.
"The New South” Donolson Caf-
fery.
“National Democracy”-- William I).
Bynum.
“The Political Outlook”—Henry G.
Turner.
“Andrew Jackson and the Restora¬
tion of the Gold Currency”-—Josiah
Patterson.
Five hundred and eight persons sat
down to the feast,.
Ex-President Cleveland was cheered
as he arose to speak. In the course of
his speech he said:
“We are gathered here tonight as
patriotic citizens, anxious to do some¬
thing tqwnrd reinstating the prosperity
of our fellow countrymen and protect¬
ing tho fair fame of our nation against
shame and scandal. On every side we
are confronted with popular depression
and complaint.
“The fundamental truths of our free
institutions, which offer opportunities
to all within their influence for the ad-
vancoment and improvement of their
condition, have been so far denied that
honest accumulation is called a crime,
and the necessity and habit of indi¬
vidual effort and struggle, xvhieb are
the mainsprings of sturdy American¬
ism, are described as unjustifiable
burdens, while unwholesome paternal¬
ism, is presented in handsome and in¬
viting garb.
“This jimver, born of sordid greed
and maintained by selfish interest and
partisan ambition, lias at last assumed
command, and has largely recruited its
wasting forces by inflaming those in¬
clined to be patient with tales of an
ancient crime against their rights to bo
avenged; by encouraging the restless
and turbent with hints of greater li¬
censes; by offering to the poor as a
smooth read to wealth, and to those in
debt hr a plan for easy payment, and
to those who from any cause are un¬
fortunate and discouraged as n romedv
for all their ills, tho free and unlimited
coinage of silver at the ratio of 16 to 1
with a depreciated currency, and
cheap money.
“It was a rude awakening for the
negligent and over-confident ,a day of
terror for sober and patriotic men,
when the bold promoters of this reck¬
less creed captured the organization
nf a powerful political party and seized
its banners, shouted defiance to the
astonished conscience and conserva¬
tism of the country. The danger of
the situation arose from the hasty im¬
pulse of those whose misfortunes had
been cruelly played upon and from
the enthusiasm of unquestioning,
thoughtless party fealty.
“The party placed in power as the
result of splendid democratic patriot¬
ism lias failed to meet the obligations
of the people’s trust.
“Instead, however, of addressing
themselves to this task (to place our
finances on a strong basis), the mana¬
gers and representatives of this victo-
nous party, these professed champions
of sound finances, have, before the
eyes of an expectant people, returned
in hot haste to their wallowing in the
mire of extrt me protection, offending
millions of voters by their unconcealed
determination to repay partisan sup¬
port from the proceeds of increased
burdens of taxation placed upon those
already overladen.
“In the meantime the allied forces
of calamity, encouraged by these
malign conditions, are still active aud
I i aggressive. They confidently speak of
the eneountsr in which they failed of
success as only the first bn tie,’ aud
gladly hail every untoward incident and
every added pretext for passion and
resentment, ns new and welcome allies
for the continuances of their crusade.
Mr. Cleveland then explained at
some length his meaning of the term
"true democracy," and spoke of the
achievements of the democratic party.
“True democracy,” he said, “enjoins
the utmost personal liberty consistent
with peace aud order. It defends the
humble toiler against oppressive ex¬
actions in his home and invites him to
the utmost enjoyments of the fruits of
industry and thrift and in his interest
and in the interest of all who are
equal.
“Let us devise means to break
through the influence of mischievous
leadership that surrounds them and
without arrogantly assuming that no
rights or hardships afflict them and
that no reform in their conditions are
needed; let ns meet onr countrymen
face to fnoe in argument and counsel.
bet trne democrats meet the passion and
'’iGerness of their former associate# who
’ mv *' af ' su,mM ‘ ,le leadership of nuti-
itemocratic wanderings, w ith firm ex-
postulations, remind them that derno-
''° uv, ' 11,Ums ^ democratic con-
science cannot be forced to follow false
bgtats, however held aloft.
“The people whom true <b moeraoy
would serve are all the people of the
land. Those whom it would restrain
are on the one hand the vicious and
turbulent who defy the laws, and on
the other those who with conscienceless
greed and in abuse of their opportun¬
ity, wrongfully oppress their fellows
and eat out their substance. Above
all things, true democracy insists that
the money of the people should be
sound,stable, neither shriveling in pur¬
chasing power in the hands of the poor
nor by its uncertain value driving
enterprise and productive energy iuto
hiding.
BULGARIA IS BELLIGERENT.
It I. Probable That the Balkan state Will
AbhIkI, (ireere.
A dispatch to The Standard from its
correspondent at Constantinople says:
The Russian government has sharply
ordered Bulgaria to keep quiet, yet
Bulgaria lias given the porte notice
that she will mobilize her troops un¬
less the Berats (tho warrants for five
more Bulgarian bishops in Macedonia)
and the appointments of Bulgarian
commercial agents at Uskub and Mon-
astir are granted.
A dispatch to the London Daily
News from Canea says that Colonel
Vassos has notified the admirals that
he hi s been ordered to attack the
Turks. The Times’ correspondent at
Canea says it is reported there that
Colonel Vassos has received this order.
The excitement at Athens continues
to 1 e most intense. Advices received
there from Yolo Friday say that even
the women are arming themselves to
do battle with the Turks.
Tho Daily Telegram’s correspondent
at Larissa says: “I regret to say that
the Turks have burned, after plunder¬
ing, the villages of Ligaria, Kayraola
nod Meralaria,destroying the churches
with dynamite. ”
The Athens correspondent of The
Daily Chronicle says:
“Among the wounded who have ar¬
rived here are several who state that a
number of the Greeks wounded at
Gritzovali and unable to follow the
Greek retreat were shut in a small
church by tho Turks, who set fire to
the building and burned them to
death.”
DAMAGES AGAINST CONSTABLES.
Judge Simonton Render# Another Decis¬
ion on South Carolina Law.
In the case of William Beelcroge,
against W. J. Harling and L. C.
Roach, in the United States court at
Charleston, S. C., Friday, the plaintiff
was awarded $800 damages for the
seizure of a trunk full of whisky made
by tho defendants as state constables.
In his charge to the jury Judge Bi-
monton said that ordinarily the seiz¬
ure without warrant of a package, as
in tho present case, was a case of tres¬
pass.
Harling and Roach.1 however, aver
that the fact that they (were constables
was justification of their act. They
claimed the legislature as their author¬
ity for their act, but Judge Simonton
showed that the acts of the legislature
were limited by the federal constitu¬
tion and laws, and the legislature
could pass no act in conflict with the
United States lows.
Judge Simonton charged that tho
seizure was a violation of the United
States commerce act recognized hv law
by tho state of South Carolina. Judge
Simonton explained the Wilson bill
and showed that it was only intended
to assist the enforcement of the prohi¬
bition laws, but it could be of no ef¬
fect in this state under present cir¬
cumstances, where the entire state is
(lotted with liquor shops.
Tho result of this suit means a great,
deal of money to liquor dealers all
over the north who ship to Charleston
purchasers for personal uso.
Tho attorney general has given no¬
tice of his intention to make a motion
for a new trial.
SMALL KANSAS CYCLONE.
Hottaes Blown Down, Cattle Killed and
Several People Injured.
A small tornado which passed one
mile west of Newton, Kas., Friday
night wrecked several houses, injured
three ’occupants, killed many cattle,
uprooted orchards and groves, and
smashed thousands of panes of glass.
•T. W. Wearns lmd an arm broken, his
wife was rendered unconscious and
was severely bruised, and the little
daughter of J. C. Chandler was slight¬
ly hurt. It is not thought that any
fatalities will result.
The storm happily spent itself a
short way outside of Newton and
wrought no further damage, Tho
storm lasted only fifteen minutes. It
came from the southwest aud was pre¬
ceded by a heavy rainfall and followed
by a terrific hailstorm.
UNCLE SAM HARD HIT.
Canada's Now Tm-ltr Bill Is Er,-Judicial to
Our Interest#.
The new Canadian tariff bill is such
as will hit the United States pretty
bard. In that regard it is popular at
Ottawa, but doubly so on account of
the preference it makes in favor of
British goods.
PETTIGREW CHARGES FRAUD.
Flit'S a Salty Minority Report on Ferritic
Land (.rant Case.
Senator Pettigrew has filed a minor¬
ity report on the result of the investi-
gytion of the Perrine land grant in
Florida, conducted during the last
session.
He takes issue with tlu majority
and contends that it is the duty of
congress to declare the grant forfeited
aud of the executive department to
cancel the patents and punish the of¬
fenders.
The report all expresses the opinion
that "there is both fraud and mistake
of fact of the officers of the govern-
ment in issuing the patents. ”

BUREAU OF STATISTICS ISSUES
REPORT OF DAMAGE.
INUNDATED AREA IS 20.000 MILES.
Figure# From La# Census* Show ing Value
of Crops, Etc., Produced on the
Submerged Band.
A Washington special says: The bu¬
reau of statistics of the treasury de¬
partment lias made the following re¬
port on the damage caused to agricul¬
tural districts by the Mississippi river
floods:
Since the publication on April 12tli
of a statement lelative to the agricul¬
tural interests of the submerged dis¬
tricts of tbe Mississippi valley south
of Cario, Ill., the area under water has
been considerably extended, This
extension is below Vicksburg, but
on the right or west side of the river
and is mainly due to a break 2,000 feet
in width in the levee at Biggs.
The outflow of water at this point has
totally submerged four parishes of
Louisiana and partially overflowed
five others, while a break at La¬
fourche crossing, in the southern part
of the same state, has resulted in the
submergence of an additional area of
nearly 300 square miles in Lafourche
and Terrabonne parishes. In this
newly submerged region there was in
1890 a total population of 82,356, in
the proportion of four colored persons
to one w ite.
The region contained at the last
census 7,547 farms, with a total area
of over 1,000,000 acres, of which 420,-
000 were improved, Of this last
mentioned area 213,000 acres, or over
one-half, were last year devoted to
cotton, over 91,000 acres to corn, 6,000
acres to sugar cane, 2,000 acres to hay
and an inconsiderable acreage to other
crops. The total value of these farms,
including fences and buildings, but
exclusive of their movable equipment,
was in 1890 close upon $11,000,000
and the value of the implements and
machinery upon them was over
$600,000.
On January 1st of the present year
they contained live stock to the value
of $1,500,000, and so lately as the 1st
of March last they were estimated to
have still on hand about $800,000
worth of the crop of the last season.
The total value of the farms submerg¬
ed by the breaks in the levees that
have occurred since the 10th instant,
with their farm implements, live stock
and crops on hand, is therefore close
upon $14,000,000.
“This region produced last year
nearly 100,000 bales of cotton, over
9,000,000 pounds of sugar, over 1,300,-
000 bushels of corn, besides hay, po¬
tatoes, oats and other minor products,
the entire production aggregating a
value, even at the low prices that, have
prevailed, of more than $4,250,000.
“The total area submerged at this
date is over 20,000 square miles. It
contained at the last census 46,935
farms with a total area of 4,904,460
acres, near’y onc-half of which was
improved, and a total population, ag¬
ricultural and otherwise, of 426,011.
If to the valuo of its farms, farm
buildings and farm machinery, ac-
cording to the census of 1890, there
be added the value of its live stock
and on January its 1st last ($9,174,636)
of products of last season still
on hand on March 1st last (4,195,119),
the total of $90,176,177 will represent
tho approximate value of the agrieul-
tnral property of the submerged re¬
gion. Among the products of this re¬
gion last year were 466,056 bales of
cotton, worth $16,312,060; 12,525,645
bushels of corn, worth $3,995,278,
and 9,033,878 pounds of sugar, worth
$271,016. The total productions, in-
eluding minor crops, representing a
value of $21,782,180 on the planta¬
tions.”

Alabama Ulan Gains n Rig Land Suit.
After Many Years.
Major Carlisle, of Guntersville, is
now the largest landed proprietor in
Alabama. This good fortune is the
result of his winning a suit which has
been in the courts for 19 years. His
property embraces portions of several
counties, and contains about 100,000
acres.
THREE NEGRO ROYS CREMATED.
They Were Locked In While the Mother
Goes Visiting.
A special from McIntosh, Ala., says
three negro boys named Baird were
cremated at a logging camp near there
Wednesday.
The mother locked them in a shanty
which the family used as a dwelling
and went for a few hours’ visit to a
neighbor. When she returned she
found the house, together with her
children, burned to ashes.
MATTERS GROW MOUSE.
Situation in Madison Parish Is More
Alarming.
A special of Wednesday from Vicks¬
burg, says: The flood situation in
Madison parish is daily growing worse,
owing to the unexpected spread of
water from Riggs crevasse.
This has reached and overflowed the
plantation of the Ashley Land company
at Omagn, thirty miles above the city
and thirty-six miles north of Biggs
crevasse The company’s manager
telegraphs for a steamer to bring out
stock. Such a spread of water north¬
ward is unprecedented.

CONGRESSIONAL BRIEFS.
Deluge of Petitions Relat ing; to Tariff Bill
Received in Senate.
A resolution by Senator Mason, of
Illinois, to permit debate to be shut off
and the previous question ordered in
the senate, was referred to the rules
committee by: Yeas 32, nays 24.
Mr. Cullom’s resolution, introduced
Tuesday, calling on the secretary of
the treasury for information relative
to internal revenue taxes on distilled
spirits, was agreed to.
This cleared the way for an unex¬
pected and very brief maiden speech
from the new senator from Illinois,
Mr. Mason, w hich elicited much inter¬
est.
The maturing of the tariff bill was
indicated by the deluge of petitions
relating to the tariff rates presented
to the senate during the session.
Mr. Spooner (republican, Wisconsin)
sent a bundle containing several hun •
dred petitions urging a re-enactment
of the McKinley rates on lumber.
Mr. Mantle (republican, Montana,)
presented a telegraphic memorial from
the Montana Stock Growers’ associa¬
tion asking an amendment to the tariff
hill so that adequate protection will
be given to the hide industry.
Among the other petitions was one
from the leading commercial houses
in San Francisco opposing the abro¬
gation of the Hawaiian treaty of re¬
ciprocity.
The house after a ten minutes' ses¬
sion adjourned until Thursday out of
respect to the 1-te Representative Mil-
liken, of Maine.
By direction of President McKinley,
Secretaries Sherman and Long have
taken steps for the protection of
American citizens residing or tempo¬
rarily within the boundaries of the
warring countries bordering on the
Mediterranean.
GREEK WOMEN ISSUE APPEAL.
Ask Aid and Encouragement, of Their Sex
In All Christian Rands.
The following appeal has been issued
by the Union of Greek Women, under
tho presidency of her majesty, Queen
Olga, and Crown Prince Sophia:
“To the women of the old and new
world, Christian mothers, sisters and
wives, workers for civilization and
progress, guardians of love and jus¬
tice, greeting:
“Christian mothers, sisters and
wives—civilized like you—earnestly
appeal for your help. Our sons, our
brothers and husbands, fighting for
the cross, are being killed and wound¬
ed in a sacred cause. Their blood
stains the last page of the history of
the nineteenth century—the history
of civilization and progress of which
you are the promoters.
t . Christian women, do not share the
responsibility of your diplomats;
arouse iu the hearts of your husbands
and sons more Christian and more
equitable sentiments. Unite and your
just protest will re-echo in the hearts
of the nations and the people. Prove
by your energy and Christian work
that the women, the true missionaries
of right, with the gospel of love and
justice in their hearts, range them¬
selves on the side of the wronged.”
GREEKS HOLD THEIR GROUND.
A Correspondent Reports That Edhcm
Pasha Is Suppressing; Dispatches.
A special of Wednesday night from
Athens says: Crown Prince Constan¬
tin telegraphs from Larissa, the head¬
quarters of the Greek forces in Thes¬
saly:
“We have kept all onr positions and
the situation today is excellent. Every
road by which the Turks can descend
into the Thessalian plain has been se¬
cured by tbe concentration of our
troops. I cannot wire at greater
length now. I am fighting, and so is
Prince Nicholas.”
Commenting upon the absence of
definite news of Wednesday from
Elassona, tbe headquarters of the
Turkish troops in Macedonia, The
London Daily Mail says it has re¬
ceived a private telegram from one of
its correspondents on tho scene of
hostilities indicating that Edhem Pa¬
sha is suppressing all dispatches.
