THE SUN, MONDAY, JULY 81, 1893. 8 il iSTWASinNGTON TOPICS. tit.rER sexator stewart ox the rtXAXClAL SIIVAIIOX. He Jlr.fHbt" It Hanker' Paale nnd on the Part of Gnal Ilrlluln lo the Vailed Htate to Adopt tbe Gold Standard A Htary About Cnrltlr Speaker Crl Arrive. WifiiixoToy, Julr 3-Penator William Xf.

Stewart of Nevada, the Silver Kind, arrived In Washington yesterday morning from New York anil left last night for Chicago. Ho will talc a look around tho big World's Fair and In. drop In on tho session of Uio silver conference Ho will return to this city In time witness tho opening of thu great light ever the financial question. In conversation )t evening tho Senator cavo expression to the (oilowlnu characteristic views: "Mr. Oladstono said In his speech that the world outside of Great Urltaln owed Great Btltain more than two thousand million pounds, and argued that It would be supremo follr on the part of Great Urltaln to consent to Increasing the volume of metallic monoy by the use of silver becauso that would raise tho prices of tho commodities, or.

what Is the same thine, cheapen the value of monor. Tho United fetntes Is largely Indebted to Iceland, and all her obllcatlons. except few specific contracts recently made, aro payablo In tho Doner of tho United Statos, and consequently the bondholders of Great Urltaln are largely Interested In compelling the United States to adopt a cold standard. This will creatly en-banco tho valuo of cold, depress the price of property, and Increase tho obllcatlons of the United States to Great Urltaln. Besides.

It the United States is compelled to abandon the Western raining States and Territories and not allowed to coin and mine money, she will bo continuous borrower of Great Britain, and in the Dear future. Instead of bcins compelled to send to Encland about $50,000,000 to pay interest her Interest account will reach many hundreds of millions. The surrender of our financial system to the adaptation of Knclish capital will make us practically a colonial tributary of Great Britain. "The repeal of the Sherman act without a substitute would stop all silver mlnlne. and eauso a practical abandonment of the silver States and Territories, reduce the price of all farm products, and make It Impossible to ever again nse silver as money.

Even now the Secretary of the Treasury refuses to buy silver I under the Bhorman law for fear that ft will raise the price. Every effort Is being made by the British Administration to deerade silver. The primary object of tne suspension of silver coinage in India was to brine pressure upon Congress. Tho bankers' panic, which has done so much harm, was created for the purpose of lnfluenclnc Concrete. Althouch the bankers and newspaper have leen iterating and reltoratinc for many months that our currency was bad.

they have convinced no one about that fact. They have, however, alarmed the people as to the etabllity of the ranks. Tho fact that the people have faith In every description of money Issued by the United Mates Is demonstrated by current event. Money Is withdrawn and boarded, not cold, because the banks do notpay out cold to depositors, but greenbacks. Treasury notes, and silver certificates are drawn oat and hoarded.

Why should people hoard Treasury notes and silver certificates inner did not believe they would cet their money All the efforts of the banks and newspapers have not ahaken the faith of tho people In silver, but It has destroyed confidence in the banks. The reason why ther draw their money out Is because they fear the banks will not be able to pay them oft In good money. Every bank Uiat baa failed has assigned as a reason want of money, not to much currency. If any bank has failed because there was roo much of a circulating medium, such fact has not come under my observation. The newspapers and banks tell us that the panacea for all our troubles consists In repealing tbe Sherman act.

What barm has the Sherman act dune? The Secretary of the Treasury has refused to use the silver purchased under the act as money. It simply lien Idle In the Treasury, althouch the act re-Quires the. Secretary to coin sufficient of It to provide for the redemption of Treasury notes. About $140,000,000 of legal tender Treasury cote nave been Issued. What harm have they done? Nobody has refused to take them.

If they were destroyed how would It help the situation If banks are dally failing because there Is not money en ouch, would it help them to destroy SUO.UO0.000 of our present circulation 7 Notwithstanding all this. Congress Is called together in the hot month of August to atop the Issue of any more Treasury note, because the banks are falling and there la a panic. The bankers all say that their failures are due to the stringency of the nony market, yet Concress is called together to increase that stringency by stepping the Issue of any more Treasury notes, ft hat an absurd remedy! What insincerity in Buy such proposition! Why do tbey not proclaim their real object? to destroy absolutely the Issue of sliver and convert all the obligations of the United States, under the law payable in either silver or gold. Into gold obligations, to double the value of bonds, mortgages, and other obligations for the payment of money, and reduce the prico of property and labor and establish a permanent commercial supremacy of Great Britain over the United States. That Is the real animus of the proceedings.

Whv cot declare It? Why pretend that a few million" ol Treasury notes Issued each month is injuring the country M. R. Baldwin of Minnesota i has arrived here direct from his home In Du-loth. and will be in 'ft ashlngton from now on through the session of Congress. His view on the leading questions ol the day are right in line with those of tne Administration, and he will I one of the leaders of the DemoTa ey of the Northwest in the next House.

Ko ears that the Sherman law will be rei.lAd earlier than I generally expected: that the people of the Northwest are noxious for a repeal -be measure, and that this desire is the outcome of the present panlcy feeling. Mxoutofthe seven members of the Minnesota ielegation favor the repeal of the Sherman act, und the two Senators will also use their efforts for an early repeal. The politicians and officials at the Treasury Department are telling a story on Chief Clerk Logan Carlisle, illustrating the old maxim that it Is a poor rule that won't work both ways. The authenticity of the Incident cannot be vouched f-r. but.

as Mr. Carlisle himself expresses it. It is a good story, anyhow Last week, when the numerous removals were taking place among the cjer the elssalllod sjprice, tn elder lady csl'ed upon the Chief Clerk, r'ne stated her csro rltar'y and distinctly, she had heen a clerk In the classified ssrvn-e. jmil always performed her duties lo a mi.ns-r 'atistuctory to her Chief of Division, ana ws not. ol course, an ofjemlve jiarlisan.

totals that there tl.e sum? Jei-iltcof distrust and tho same hard times that characterises the wholo ountry. The cotton crop has just begun to come In. hut tho fear of tho licople Is that they will have troublo In securing tho necessary money to move It. The hanks In the. past have got what they needed from New York, but now the Now York hanks av they cannot let the money go.

Just what tho n-Mitt will ha cannot now lie told, hut Mr. Crlsti hopes I hat some way will bespoedlly found by tho bankers of tho cotton States to supply the funds tosetthls staple of the touth to nia-kct. Mien asked whether this distrust was due to the existence of tho Sherman law, Mr. Crisp replied that It wacnrtalnly due to a want of puhllo confidence, but uxaMly what rnttsed that condition ho was not prepared to say. 7IIK AJlTa ailKATEST t.f.V.

Intrresllns Orttnnw Werli Armor llnts oT the Maloe- nnd the Pnritan, WsiiisoTON. July 13-lnch gun. the largest rifle eor made for tho navy, and the largest that Is likely to be nmdq for sorao time to come, is soon to bo tested at Indian Head. Twolve of these guns nru needed for vessels now under construction, four each going to the battle ships Indiana. Massachusetts, and Oro-con.

But tho Iou. which is still larger. Is to carry lLMnch rifles as her heaviest calibre. Our Naval Bureau of Onlnonro hasnskcdto build a lU-lncli gun. but since no ship Is tindor construction or in contemplation which is designed for such a weapon.

It Is not llkoly to bo built. The various mlshnps which havo nttended the firing of 110-ton guns in the British naval service, and the crowning disaster to the Victoria, which was armed with them, will not give thorn much further favor hero or there, although Italy uses them on her vessels. But the decision of the British Admiralty In favor of smaller maximum calibres, was based on tho consideration of handling guns to advantage, it being considered ndi Isable not to be wholly dependent for operating them on machinery, which might be disabled at critical momont The same views havo prevailed in our own service, and accordingly the Iowa's largest guns were reduced to tho 12-inch calibre, although somo experts considered this to be a mistake. Certainly the Interest In the 13-inch guns will not bo diminished by the knowledge that no moro of them aro to be ordered for tho present. The greater part arc in various stages of construction, two being practically completed.

Their carriages are not yet ready, and it Is said that their armor-plorclng projectiles are also yet to be furnished. But important conclusions In regard to the firing of the gun can be reached with ordinary shells and temporary mounts. Tho 13-inch gun Is nearly 40 feet lone, and has a diameter of a little over 4 feet at the breech and of 21 Inches at tho muzzle. It Is constructed on the built-up principle adopted both by the navy and Uie army, in which a central steel tube has shrunk upon It bands or jackets thnt fit exactly. Tbe projectile In ordinary uso wHl weigh 1.100 pounds, and will be propelled by a charge of 550 pounds of powder.

These figures, striking as tbey are. are outdone by those of the 110-ton Armstrongs, which are nearly 44 feet long, have a diameter of 6S feet at the breech, and throw an 1.800-pound steel projectile with 000 pounds or more of powder. Yet tbe figures for the 13-lnch gun are sufficiently Imposing. The coming armor tests are also very Interesting. One of them will be that of a 13-lnch Harveylzed plate, representing a part of the armor of the Maine- This will be subjected to the fire of a 10-lnch rifle, and it is believed that tho famous surface-hardening process will achieve a new triumph.

These plates are the thickest that have ever been Harveylzed. Another test will be that of a Harveylzed nickel-steel plate, representing a portion of tbe armor of the Puritan. Hero a particularly Interesting comparison Is possible, inasmuch as a portion of the armor of this vessel has been made of nickel steel without surface hardening and a portion of the same armor Harveylzed. so that the comparison of the resisting qualities will bo very instructive, lief-erence has already been made to the inclination test with an o-inch rifle against a it-inch curved plate, as being a high decree of practical importance. Mention may aUo be made of a recent attack upon a (t-tnrh nickel-steel plate, representing the turret armor of the New York, by a 0-pounder Urlggs-bchroeder rapid-fire gun.

The object was to test the auahty of certain steel shells which, propelled by 1.875 feet of Initial velocity, penetrated a little more than half way through the plate. and rebounded without breaking. Later in the autumn, at Handy Hook, the long-awaited competitive tect of small calibre rat ld-flre guns will tak-o place. Tho entries thus far are the Hotchklss, Driggs-Schroeder. Seabury.

Nordenfeldt. and Sponsol six-pound-era. The trial will be a most thorough one. covering perhaps from 100 to 200 rounds with each gun. and determining both its rapidity and its accuracy.

There will also be a test fur presure from excessive charges, btlll another trial carried on by the authority of the Board of Ordnance and Portlilcatlons at Sandy Hook, will be that of the Hotchklss. Canet, and Armstrong 4.7-incb rapid-fire guns. Specimens of all three types have been purchased expressly for this comitltlve fe.t. which must greatly interest Encland and France as well as our own ooontry. The progressive trials of the Brown segmental gun and also of the smokelevs powders increase In Interest as tbey aresubjected to more and more advanced tests.

The Brown gun has shown a remarcanie aDlltty to stand heavy charges producing hlch velocities, und to resist great pressures. The Leonard smokeless powder, an American Invention, has given some excellent result. A charge of only 2 Iounds of It In the eteel field gun secured the great Initial velocity of 2.4.'PJ feet j.er secend. The projectile weighed 13j pounds, so that It developed a remarkable energy foi that calibre of gun. The pressure, which was pounds, was sustained by the gun with entire satisfaction.

'1 he trials of disappearing gun carriages are also doubtless to be continued, since not nil the patterns projos-d nate ben thoroughly tet-ted. and tbe matter is one of prime importance in coast defence. An Interesting experiment le also to be made In thu asewibllngof the new nlckel-iteelcun. His confidently expected that the construction of ordnance of steel, having a nickel alloy, will he noteworthy In lt way as has teen its introduction into the manufacture of arms. But.

in addition, the fcelJer plan constructs the gun of fewer pieces, and puts them together in a horizontal an we.i as in a vertical ioition. Thus a new syftem of gun construction, as well as a sew material. Is involved in this method. A-GIT71X' 1H.IK WISH BUJU FKKT." A. Stout I.ltlle Old Crntlrna Brl lie Walk lo Ike World's Flrlo JJa.

Nrrw London. July 30. Somewhere on a lonesome road making toward the White City a stout, ruddy-fa'-ed. white-haired little old gentleman Is trudging jauntily with only a (5 bill in his pocket. He Is Bay Earl of New London.

The pro-xlsional company of infantry from tho Thirteenth Beglmotit of Brookljn did not get in until 7 o'clock.

Tho regulate nnd tho militia allfco wore a weary lot of men. The horses of the battory wagons of Battery gavo out. nnd the wngnns did not get Into catnp until two hours niter tho artillerymen, when they stragelod in. The Infantry left Van Cortlamlt l'nrk at 0:10 o'clock In tho morning. They started off along tho Albany post road ata lively call.

The batteries lett at 7:20 o'clock. Cnpf. iJlllenback rods at the head of tho column. Tho Second Battery movod off first, under Capt. Wilson.

Battery was Becond. and tho First Battory brought up the rear. A great crowd of people wero waiting In Yonkera. Most of them followed tho column to Hastings, and somo wont as far as Dobbs Ferry. The battertee overtook thoir advance guard of Infantry at Dobbs Ferry ot 12 o'olock.

Tho Infantrymen were In difficulty even then. Tho hea knapsacks, combined with tho heat and tho hilly roads, told on them greatly. Tho batteries stopped nbout noon between Dobbs Ferry and Irvington for a bit to oat. The march was resumed at 1 o'clock. The Infantry fell further back as the battorles passed through Tnrrytown, nnd Instead of nn advance guard they bocome a raggod protection to tho rear.

In Dobbs Kerry. Irvington. Tnrrytown. nnd tho other villages along the lino of march, the streets were lined with people, farmers and rich country resldentsdotted th croud between tho ton ns. Many ieopledroo alter the troops for miles.

Hebrew fiddlers, fakirs, and darllea trailed in thelrwake. All along tho md the troop got a rouMng reception. Sing Sing was reached shortly beforo o'clock. Ono of tho trolley cars happened alone Main street just as tho batteries passed tho American house. It demonstrated the fact that the horses may be all right under lire, but they cannot nbido a trolley cnr.

Such a rearing and plunging and shouting sing blng neersnw before. Thespot where the campwas pitched for the night on tho highest point of ground on Croton Toint It commands tine view of the Hudon on both sides. Tho sing blng prlon seems to nestle nt Its feet. The men lost no time in getting down to business. The fact that tho wagons of Battery were late getting In narrowed tho race to get settled between the First nnd Second batteries.

Copt. ilon and Lieut, l'ercival Farquhar of the Second urged their men to their utmost, as did Cnpt. Wendel of the First. Although the men were tired out. they worked like boavers.

Tho result was a draw. After the work was dono the men went nt once to rest. The regular soldiers suffered comparatively little, but their horses, who aro arcustomed to work onlvan hour a day. and then on a parade ground smooth as a billiard table, were badly used uw The men or tho First and Becond batteries were quite tired. Capt.

Dillcnback said that had he known tho distance and tho roads were what ho found them to I.e. he would not havo made the man. n.neday. He said It was asking too much horses and men alike. The Infantrymen ftiio.1 the test comparatively well.

They do not highly of the now deiltfes which It is propose! to suostltutoln tne place ot tho old-time Knapsacks. Tho arrangements lor water tor uie norses and men at Croton Point wero bad. The drinking and rooking water waB taken from a spring almost half a mile from the camp. The horses were led down to tho rler. almost a mile by the road.

While the water of the river offCroton is not salty, yet not all that could be desired to water the horses. There are two valuable thoroughbred horses In camp. one. Toronto, belonging to Lieut. Farquhar of the Second Battery, and the other.

Sellm. nn Arabian bred sorrel, owned by Capt. Wendel of tho First Battery. Toronto took Lieut Farquhar through Sing Sing at a rattling pace, while Sellm. with Cnpt Wendel astride htm.

pranced and reared. Toronto wanted to jump all the mud holes, small and brooks alone the road. The troop leaves the camp at Croton rolnt atO o'clock this morning. It Is fifteen miles from the camn to l'eeksklll. but Copt.

Dillon-back expects to get Into the State camp by 1 o'clock and t-ettle down to work beforo evening. Late last evening Capt. Dlllonbaok started out to cet eight more horses for his battery. His men had no rations last night until nbout fl o'clock. sae what they cot from the other batteries.

Hundreds of people droie out to the camp last night, including E. Van Cort-landt anion Durston ot sing Sing prison nnd Mrs. Durf ton. and Col. Lnwrenee Murphy.

The ground on which the tents were pitched at Croton l'olnt is a part of the old an Cortlandt estate, and i within sisbtof the Van CortlanJt mansion, built in l'Xl Tho wagons of the infantry broke down nine times between Yonkera and Tarrytown. Fifteen men were left behind to accompany them. At 10 o'clock the wagon- had in it Irf-en heard from. The Infantry were without tents, blankets, or jiroMklons. The w-tgnns of Batter' bad not been sighted at i o'clock.

Krk of Brooklyn has brought suit ngnlnst hor mother-in-law. Mrs. Mary Lrk, widow of Leonard Lrk. awoll-known mason and builder ot Williams-burgh, nnd demands dnmnges to tho amount of $28,000. Mrs.

Theolora Erk was a Miss Vogel. a dressmaker nt 752 Flushing avenue, until on April 23 sho mnrrled Joseph. Mrs. Mary Itrk's son. Tho plaintiff says her marriage to Joseph was a match-making swindle.

Sho has filed a long affidavit to provo Hint Josoi was weakly cplloptlc nnd a burden to his mothor. and that tho inothor. In her eagerness to cot him off her hands, represented him to Mrs. Theodora M. T.rk as a perfectly hoilthy person, and ono whom it would he to hor ndvantngo to mnrry.

I'urthor, tho plaintiff declares thnt Mrs. Mnry Erk offered her, ns an Inducement to mnrry Joseph, houso nnd lot worth a plnno nnd furniture, and 310 a weok for household oxponsos. Thoso wore all to h.iie been given to tho plaintiff whon the mnrrlaeo had taken placo. Mrs. Theodora Erk says she has received nothing of what was promised to her by her mother-in-law.

Hho knew nothing, the joting wife adds, regarding her husband condition until one day he fell In fit. On the night of ball in Beethoven Hall. In this city. Mrs. Theodora l.rk was introduced to herluturo husbnnd.

He drove to her house In a carriage to escort hor tn the dance. After that he rondo love, to her nnd llnnlly married her. All that time Mrs. Thoodora Erk sals she was kept In Ignorance of Joseph Erk's Physical condition by his mother. Tho young eoupte llnnlly separated, and soon after Joseph Krk made tin affidavit to tho effect that from tho day he met Miss Vogel until ho married her his mother had sought by every means tolmpress upon hlin thedeslrnhllltyof hnving Miss Vogel hs a wife.

The affidavit sets fortli that Mrs. Mnry Erk got hei son to writo lettera to Miss Vogel making love to her and telling her that ho would work further and mnke her happy If sho would marry him. All these letters were read by tho mothor. who passed judgment upon them before they wero sent to Mls Vogel. Jo-oph Erk tho statement that his mother had agreed tociie Miss Vogel the $7,000 houso and lot and tho various other articles mentioned it the marriage should tuko place.

Up doubts thnt his mother cier intended giving them to his wlfo. He ndmt thnt hemnerhad the least affection for Miss Vogel. and that ho married her only nt thu command of his mothor. By her venture In matrimony Mrs. Joseph Erk ha lost everything, bho gave up her dressmaking, nnd now her health Is completely broken down.
