The best administered government is the best government. The form matters little as compared with the substance. The weal of the government is or should be the first consideration.

I can but believe that the principles declared in the Chicago platform, if subjected to the test of experience, would prove unwholesome, impoverishing and demoralizing alike both to the financial and the moral integrity of the nation. Whether or not I shall vote for McKinley is a matter of very gave consideration with me. I am a democrat on principle, by tradition and from sentiment. I revere tbe great loaders of the democratic party. I honor its enduring tenets.

I am too good a democrat to vote the Chicago ticket, and I am too good a democrat to vote the St. Louis ticket unless I shall believe that my vote may be necessary to defeat the success of the Bryan ticket, in which event, bebeving it the part of wisdom when confronted with two evils to choose the lesser, I may feel compelled to support McKinley. Whatever else it may mean, 1 believe the success of the republican ticket will mean the maintenance of our present financial standard and financial honor for at least four years longer which is 'a consummation devoutly to be wished." Mr. Bc-nj. Dorsey Warfield, whose views are thus given is a Marylander, a native of Howard county, where he has a large family connection.

And whils this excessive mortality concerns primarily the people affected by it, there is also in the situation serious danger to the whole communitv. When a building covering only two city lots is packed with nearly five hundred persons, most of them occupying rooms into which the direct rays -of the sun never penetrate: where the walls are alive with vermin, and the halls and stairways are indescribably plastered with filth; wuero seweraire is unknown and ventilation impossible, the virus ot disease must be developed and the seeds of epidemic must germinate.

Mr. Ogden Ooelet 111. A dispatch to the Herald from Cowes, England, says: "Despite the fact that certain correspondents have denied tbe truth of the statement cabled, Mr. Ogden Goelet, of New York, is lying dangerously ill on board the yacht White Ladye, which is anchored in the harbor of Cowes. Mr.

Goelet has been ill for three weeks, and he has been so seriously sick that he has not been able to leave the cabin of his yacht since the beginning of his Illness." Mr. Ogden Goelet has not been in rugged health for a number of years, and for that reason has, by the advice of his physicians, passed the winter abroad at Nice or Cannes, where he has had foe several years the yacht White Ladye which was chartered from Mrs. Langtry. A TVIiiMehncketl Ship In Port. The only whalebacked sailing ship ever bubt arrived iu Brooklyn yesterday.

Her namo is Ancona. She was built last year and she is commanded by Captain Kaoleln. She is a peculiar-looking craft, since her decks are flush, there being no bulwarks, mere rails taking their place. She sailed here from Cape Town, make a good passaue of flity-two days. The vessels has four masts and buiit entirely of.steel.

In her lower bold are tanks lor the storage of oil and between decks she wiil carry a general cargo. Her sMes, Which give her the name whulebackad, round up to her deck, and it is this feature that gives her the ability to glide through heavy seas, throwing them off as a duck throws off water, instead oT shipping them. She is 2,570 tons gross and came here in ballast. alore Astor Hulldings. John Jacob Astor and tue trustees of the Wm.

Astor estate, James ii. itoosevelt, Douglas Kobinson and Henry B. Ely, have under consideration two important improvements. One is tbe erection in the most fashionable section of Filth avenue of an apartment-house, or apartment hotel, and the other the construction of a modern office building in lower Broadway. The apartment building is to be located at the southeast corner of Fifth avenue and Fifty-tilth street, opposite the old site of St.

In furtherance of the purpose to improve the facilities for transferring loreiim mails from oeeau steamers to their various destinations ia the United Slates there was a conference between Mr. Ncllson, the Second Assistant Posttnaster-General, J. Maitland Kersey, of the White Star Line, aud E.

L. Boas, of the Hamburg-American Line, in Postmaster Dayton's office yesterday. The discussion was preliminary in character, and it was decided to have another conference to-tnorrow. It is proposed to have the steamers deliver tbe maus at quarantine to a government transport and during the trip from quarantine to have the sacks of mail for tho various cities so arranged that tuey can bo delivered directly to the railway stations without bringing the sacks to the general postoilice tu.s city. litsiiup Votter in London.

A private letter from Londou announces that the tour of Bishop Potter on the Cou i-neat ot Europe has been somewhat interrupted by a call to that city from tho Archbishop of Canterbury, who requested the American prelate's attendance at a Series of meetimrs convened by the primate of the English Church, connection witu tho approaching Lambeth Conference. The next La nbeth Conlerence will De held la May, 1897, aud the questions which will come before it for discussion will be of a most important character and of deep interest to Christianity turouchouS the world. At the ciose of the discussions re ativo to the subjects to be brouahi betore the Lamtwth Conference it Is expected that Bishop Potter will resume his travels on the Continent, and that he will return home in Seprember. Sir. (oa leri Going to Europe.

Frederic K. Couderi wiil sail ior Europe on Saturday and probably wiil remain abroad until the end of September. He wiil devote considerable of his time in Europe to work in connection with the inquiries of the Venezuelan boundary commission. He is tbe only member of the commission who has announced the intention of making a personal search ior information ia Europe. Fawn brokers.

Pawnbrokers say that their business flourishes best in very cold or very warm weather, and the Provident Loan Society, which started several years ago to do a semi-charitable pawubroklng business at Fourth nvenue and Twenty-second street, repcTts that it is now lending from $2,000 to 3,000 a day. Tnis is a large sum to lend in tno way iu which too society does business. Most of the loaus, says the New York Sun, are very smail, and many of the articles accepted as security are household goods of comparatively litt. i value or articles of jewelry which the owner is compelled to pawn by urgent necessity. Leopold Hecbt, the superintendent of the Provident Loan Society, showed a reporter several da 8 auu a set of Uussiun 6ilver wino cups whicn had been Jef with him as a pledge.

They were of the finest silver, lined with gold and handsomely engraved. Mr. Heche said that they were undoubtedly used at tbe Passover feast by Kussian Hebrews, aud they bore too Kussiuu government stamp, the Bowery pawn shops now look upon bicycles as gilt-edged securities, and a man can get a liberal amount on a Ir.ga-grade wheal iu good condition. Ke-voivers are another staple pledge. Nearly every pawn shup on the Bowery has its windows ttaed wttn second-hand revolvers, and it is a curious lact that tb-a pawuorokers want very nearly the list p-ioe for them.

"We have a steady demand for revolvers," said one of them yesterday, "aud we can afford to ask almost as much for them as do the dealers." U. Seerbob.m Tree to Return. Charles Frohman announced yesterday that iu conjunction with Ai. Hayman he had made contracts with H. Be.erbOh.ua Trea and1 Her Majesty's Theatre Company to play an engagement in this country beginning in November.

Mr. Tree will play four weeks at what was Abbey's Theatre in this city, tnree weeks at tbe Chestnut Street Opera House, Philadelphia; oue week at Albaugei's Tbe-arre. Washington, and oue week at the Hollis Street heatre, Boston. The Deiuucratio Ticket. Senator John Haines, republic said today that if the regular democratic organization of the ttate tails to certify Bryan and Sewall as the regular nominees of tha democratic party, tueir names cannot appear uuder the democratic star oa the blanket ballot iu this State, and unless some independent party that has cast a vote of 10,000 at the last ection indorses Bryan and sewall, or I.UU0 people certify as to these candidate being their tnelr names appear even as candidates of an independeut faction.

The New York World savs: In declaring for the free coinage of silver independently of all other countries the Chicago convention in effect declared for a different and lower money" standard than that used by the great commercial nations with which we trade. Trade and commerce follow the lines of least monetary resistance, and out of total merchandise imports and exports last year of $1,50.508.130 only $163,893,627 was from 8ingio snver-stanuard c-juutries less tnan 11 per ceut. Even in our South American trade, about which so tB'icb has been said, out of a total of only 6 per $8,091,853, was with silver-standard countries, while Ti per $105,2 17, fc4, was with single gold-standard countries, and was with bimetallic countries.

Practically speaking, all bimetallic countries are on a gol 1 bais, their legai-teader silver being exchangeable for gold, but the bimetallic trade is small. Let Europe serve as the example. Whilo much less than half of it population has tlJo single gold standard, tue following labia soows our trade: Single Gold Countries' Bimetallic Countries. His Bepubltcan Law Partner Analyses the Candidate's Character. Tbe New York Sun yesterday published the following dispatch from Lincoln, "William J.

Bryan's law partner and most intimate personal friend is a man of about his own age. He ia a stalwart republican. A. It. Talbot is one of the prominent republicans of the State.

A month ago he wa3 nominated for the State Senate. Nobody in Nebraska entertains a higher opinion of Bryan, personally, than his partner, but he does not hesitate to condemn his associate's po'ucsl views. 'Bryan to be admired for everything except his politics, and I Know he Is honest in his said Mr. Talbot, who chatted in an interesting manner about bis partner. "Will Bryan and I were classmates in the Union Law College in We entered the college the same dav, in 1881, and we left it together.

We usually occupied adjoining seats, and durina two years we were the closest of ohuma. I first met him the year before in Galesburcr at an oratorical contest. He represented Illinois College in the contest and tooK second prize. 1 don't remember his subject now, but he made a deep impression. Even then be had a considerable reputation as a public speaker.

He had while in college stumped tbe State of Illinois tor M. Springer, with bom Bryan was always on tho most intimate and friendly terms. Congressman Springer, you know, irot Bryan a place on tbe wajsand means committee. Will was known as a ready, witty talker, and he was much in demand. His utterances were usually carefully prepared in advance and were always polished and graceful.

While we were attending the Law Col. ego he delivered an address on Abraham Lincoln that was very generally commented on." "Did you then regard him as cut out for a public man?" I did not. I knew he was a bright fellow, who would gret on in the world, but I never thought of him as destined for a great career. As a matter of fact, we were both poor boys, struggling to make our way, and neither one of us thought much of the future then. It kept us busy taking care of the present.

We were both utterly without, means and had to work our way through college. I worked in one law office and Will in another Lyman Trumbull's, by tho way for S5 per week. We paid all of our expenses out of that. In those days we lunched pretty regularly on a nickel's worth of crackers and apples, but we dined heavily at night." "What happened when you left the Law College?" "We were graduated in June, 18S3. Will went to Jacksonville to engaue in the practice of the law.

and I canw to Uncom immediately. I didn't see him again till 1837, when he came West on some legal business. He stayed in Lincoln with me over Sunday. I was a ay a part of the day, and so did not see much of bim; but before saying goodbye I suggested that he come out to Lincoln and go into partnership with me. I told him I would guarantee htm a living, and that was about, all he was getting in Jacksonville.

Itold him he was just the kind of a man to come out West and grow up with the country. He did not have very much 10 say. but shortly after he reached home ha wrote me and wanted to know It I was in earnesc when 1 made him the offer of a partnership. I replied that I was. and in a few weks he came out again and remained here 30 days.

At the end ol that time he returned to Jacksonville, closed up his business there and came back with bis family, prepared to stay. Some time afterward he purchased a lot on street for $500 or $600. His iather-in-law. Mr. Baird.

sent him the money to build the house, S2.700, I think. He settled down to the practice of law, but he devoted some attention to politics almost frooi the first, and within a year and a half Of the time of his arrival in Lincoln he was Dominated by tire democrats for Congress. "Bi'yan is an upright, conscientious. Christian man- 1 have never known a finer character. I am positive toat he wont into politics with no selfish motives.

He is tiior-ouirhly convinced that the country is beset witn conditions that call for tue highest patriotism, the noblest endeavor, and he regards it his duty to help right wnat be says are tbe wrongs of the people. I could vivo you many instances of his disinterestedness1 "i'wo years ago a gentleman from New York sat in Bryan's private office there trying to get blm to maka a coutrucs to deliver titty lectures at SiOU a lecture. Bryan was poor then, as he is poor now, and 1 urged him to accept the oiler. But he would hardly listen to the man. He said he would not speak for money.

He was not in politics tor himself, but fur tbe peopie, and he did not expect to make anything for himself. He Baid he would not take anythiDg but his expenses. he remarked, "it is necessary that those who can should give their lives to the work of emancipating the people. Somebody has got to do this, and I have made up my uoind to enter into it heart and soul, but not for my own He didn't sign the contract. "Vhen he was in Conaress he had an offer of 10 000 a ear to become tne counsel of a large corporation, b.rt he told the officers he would not act as their attorney for the entire profits of the concern.

He has besn repeatedly urged to make his home in democratic States, with the assurance that he would be elected to the United States Senate and kept there the rest of his lire, but he said he preferred to remain in Linuola, and be will 'continue to keep his residence iu this city."

Glerinan, was one of the two sound-money delegates from Virginia to the Chicago convention, in its issue or yesterday says in a leading editorial, under the caption "For Bryan and Sewall:" "This is the position of the Virginian as against McKinley and Hobart: It is for the nominee of the democratic couventton at Chicago as against the nominee of the republican convention at St.

Louis. The Virginian does not propose to sustain all of the platform adopted at Chicago. There has never been a platform adopted by any political party that met the views of all its adherents or supporters. The Virginian's position on the financial plank wtdl known, yet it does not hesitate to assert that there are two sides to the question, and the views or the Virginian are held by a minority of the democratic party of Virginia ana the country, as illustrated at Staunton and Chi-oaito. It will not do to heap abuse and vituperation on the majority in control of tha Chicago convention or the nominee! of that conveution.

Walter Webb, third vice-president of the Sew York Central, is authority for the statement that Mr. VanderbiU's condition is not dansrerous. He said, too, that Dr. Depew hud been cabled to, but the cable contained no instructions for President l)pew to return. Mr.

Draper, in answer to questions Dr. MeLane lid that Mr. Vanderbilc was resting: quietly. He was conscious, he said- Tbe effects of the slisrht paralytic shock nave passed away and tbert is no eaus for alarm. Mr.

No man of his time has better represented the union of labor and capital in his own personal life, says the New York Sun. than Cornciius Vanderbilt. He is a millionaire laborer, and has been ever since bo became a millionaire. he was of aire he began to work, and he has been workinsf ever since. From his Hrrandiatber, the old Commodore, he inherited bis nrst fortune, 5.lJ,U03, mor-j tbau twice as much as any oth of the firaaJsons cot, and also the old man's taste for methodical work.

He beirao life as a farmer's boy and a railroad magnate's urandson. He is now it railroad maenate himself, and in that capacity has jriven to his business the same laborious care that the farmers boy srivesto his chores. There is Dot so much of it reckoned by hours, but more, perhaps, reckoned by the wear and tear on the human machine. Comparatively tew persons know that the man who today controls one of the greatest raiiroud systems in the world was born in bumble circumstances. That was flity-two cars asro.

His father, William H.Vander-biit. had been sent to a farm on ftaten Island by tbe Commodore, aDd it was there that all William children were born. Younsr Cornelius, after an education in the ordinary schools, went to work in the Shoe and Leather Bank, and lived on his suiary. Irom there he went to tbe hanking house of Kissam Brothers, and about this time the old Commodore recalled William 11. from the farm to help build up the Vanderbilt railroad system.

Shortly after younjr Cornelius, then bareiy of aire, became assistant treasurer of tbe Harlem Railroad, and subsequently trensurer. On the death of the Commodore. William H. Vauder-hilt became treasurer ot the Harlem and Coruebus, vice-president ot the Harlem and first vice-preideut of the Central, with control of its entire financial affairs. The 5,000,000 left him bv bis grandfather he invested wisely, doubling- it.

Ever since then be has made the Vanderb It railroad system, its management and extension his dally work. Unlike his brothers, whose chief interests in liie are travel, sports or social diversions, be cares first for busiuess and next lor (he pleasure of mukintr himself felt pow rfully, yet unostentatiously, in many diverse F-Vi-ry day wnen be was In New York it was his batnt to jro to his 4'ttice in the Grand Central Station and keeo thoroughly in touch with all the enormous interests centered there. Despite the effort and time that this takes, be found leisure lor many other matters. For one he is actively Interested in religious waiters. He i.s.

A. is a favorite of his too. and he docs not limit his enthusiasm to tie groes to its meetings and addresses thoui. Educational mutters have a decided interest for him. Ho iravv Vanderbilt Hall to STale and Yaie gave the decree of M.

A. to him. He has been much interested in Columbia Coileire also, and was a prominent flirure at the recent dedication exercises. He husrlven largely to bt. Hospital, the Protestant Episcopal Cathedral, tne Metropolitan Museum of Art aud Columbia Coiieee.and considerably to scores of other institutions, where bis sifts have been kept from publicity at his own request.

Of his fortune many estimates have beea made. His grandfather left him which he doubled before he came into his share ot his father's fortune. S52.650.000. Besides ibis he had for life 56,150,000. By in-vestments, mainly in railroad stocks and bonds he doesn't believe ia real estate ha has probably doubled his fortune, and is worth today more tnun It is said that he kec-DS the entire reCurd of his investments always with him in a little pocket account-book.

Vheu he was twenty-tbreo years old Cor-relius Vanderbilt married Miss Alice wynne, of Cincinnati. The eldest son, died in his junior year at Yaie College. The fine dormitory on the Yale campus, Vanderbilt Hail, was built by his father nsa memorial to him. Jlr. A.

Leo Knott, tor VIryan. Mr. A. Leo Knott, of liaitimrre, has written the following letter to the Moruiug Journal: "1 congratulate you on the able and clis-cri-ninittinif exposition and masterful defense of the platform of democrutio principles adopted C.ucaiiO. contained in your issue of todav, aud on your resolution to support the ticket there nominated.

I expected nothing lss from the sturdy devotion to democratic doctrines and ideas which has market your career a a Journalist, but ia thii hour of defection, of apostacy in high places, and when so many heretofore highly honored bv the democratic party seem to bave lost the faith, aud with it their heads, this action on your part is as poculiarly grateful, and courageous as it is just and wise, and entitles you to the rcsuect aud gmutude ot tho democracy of the whole couatry." A ScUooner on the Shoal. A dispatch received from Sandy Hook. Bays that there was a two-masted schooner azround ou the itomer Shoal. fhe was hauled off shortly after ten o'clock this morning- by the wrecking steamer William E. Chapman.

The schooner is the Fred A. Emerson, of FJoocu Bay, Captain Blake, bound from Baltimore t'r Carteret, N. J. The Distilleries. The Eastern dis il.ers of rye whisky held a meeting at the Wala orf Hotel lu May, at which an agreement was signed to suspend dibtilling from July 18Pti, to Sept.

1, le97. r-otue of the signatures were attached conditionally aud some firms were not represented. These included tbe Hannis Di-tilling Com-pany, of West Virginia; the Monticelio Coin-lany, of Maryland: James Clark of Maryland; J. A. Dougherty Sons, ot Pennsylvania; the (Pa.) Distilling Company tnd the Philadelphia Pure Kye Dis-tiiliug Company.

At the conference all the distillers were sanuuin that the non-signing concerns could be converted to a belief that a shut-down would be beneficial. Their hopes, sars the World of today, have not r.een realized, however, for the Haums Comp ny's distilleries are still in active operation, and owners say they must continue to run because or the large number of orders on hand. Wnen it is considered that the minis Company last year produced about 1.0U0.UUU gallons of the total output of less than or more than one-niutti ot the wlnjle, tie importance of the co-opera- tion or the Hanms Company is appareut. The beiier that their co-operation be obtained has caused marked uneasiness among those who subscribed to tho May agreement. ith a view to r.rrivlng at some definite policy, a meeting of the Eastern olstiiiers was held at, the Oriental Hotel, Manhattan JJesch, today.

Should Hannis Co. refuse to sign an agreement to close down until September 1, i8'd7, as now seems probable, other concerns wi 1 take advantage of theirconditiouai consent and reopen their distilleries. Filthy Tenem-n. Forty-two tenements, capable of sheltering seventeen hundred peopie, were condemned iu this city yesterday by the board of health, which ordered the tenants to evacuate them within five days. Only tboe persons, says the Herald.wbo have examined tnese places can have a correct idea of the horrors of living in them.

Justice to tbe filth therein existing cannot be done without infringing- tbe unwritten laws of decency. That any human being should be willing to live in such holes is one of the curiosities of life. It may be explained iu part by the tenant's ueed to get the cheapest accommodations possible, owing to their pitifully email wager, and in part by the gregarious charaoer of the class wbooccuoy tho condemned tenements. Manv of them have ap-uaxentiy no wish for oetter and healthier quarters, and in some cases tney sullenly resent the action ot the board of health. But the preference of the people who swarm in these vile tmi lling hives of industry aud dirt must not be considered oy tna authorities.

There are two serious dangers in the existence of unsanitary tenements. First, the risk ot epidemics tit physical disease; second, the certain Injury to morals. Of the two tne first will stand most prominently in the put.iic view, bus the barm done to the community by the second will probably be productive of far more evil.

Mild quiet. Chicago, July 15 The demoralization In Wal street was the pre-eminent factor in Wheat today aud Hised a decline of Vj cent in September under conditions that would ordinarily have caused substantial advance. Corn and oats were sympathetically and closed and 14 cent lower. Provisions show slight declines. With a fairly active business the market ior Wheat showed decided weakness nearly all of the session.

The lower temperature In the Northwest and rain have relieved much of the apprehension which has been fell as to the prospect in that quarter and this has also had a tendency to weaken values. The rallying point in the market was the working of Wheat for direct export. Corn was weaker, following Wheat, and was also helped downward by reports of rain In country where most needed, as well as cooler weather and less fear of damage from hot winds. Rumors of an advance in freight rates also helped jn the decline. Dais were active and weak, but not proportionately so with Wheat, and Corn, continued unfavorable crop news lending an element of etrengtn in the early hours.

Provisions were dull and gave indications of weakness. The steadying influence of a strong hog market, was neutralized by the weakness of all grain markets but tbe limited amount of trading pie-vented material declines.

The Baltimore stock market exhibited continued weakness yesterday and still lower prices were established for the usually active securliies. Those having money to invest manifested an indisposition to trade or to make time loans on account of the uncer tain financial situation. Money for call loans was plen'iful at easy rates, as funds thus placed may be withdrawn at any time. In railroad stocks Southern Railway preferred scored a further loss of 2 points by selling at 22. Baltimore Traction declined an additional to 16, sold down to 16 and closed ut 16 bid, 10 iisked.

Silver certificates tSSiabi). The volume of stocks was considerably larger than for some time past and the movement ot prices was almost uninterruptedly downward. At times the market presented a rather ragcred appearance and material declines were numerous, ranging between I and 7 per cent. The trading was unusually well distributed, with the main pressure against tho Industrials and Grangers. Some of the more extreme losses occurred in the usually imotive stocks and on nominal dealings.

At intervals heavy blocks of the leading active shares changed baud. The slump in values was due to aggressive bear raiding and to liquidation by tired hold-ers. The advocates of lower prices made effective use of lower London quotations for American securities, the reported severe indisposition of the head of the Vanderbilt family, engagements of gold for export today, aggregating S900.000, and further advances in torelgn exchange rates. Another sharp break in United States government new 4s exerted a decided depressing influence on the general market. Actual rates for sterling were advanced yi, to 487 aud 488? and cables worked olose to 489.

(Some leading drawers also advanced posted quotations to 488 and 489. Tho gold withdrawls exerted the greater unfavorable influence, as the engagements were announced shortly after several of the leading gold-shipping bouses had publicly expressed doubts as to shipments. The break of 1J per cent, brought the new government 4s down to 113, the lowest price recorded for the bonds since their is3ue. A factor in the general decline in the Stock Exchange markets, in addition to influences noted, was the liquidation of securities held in loans. In this connection rumors were current of heavy blocks of Sugar iu loans with various financial institutions.

At the extreme low points some inside buying was noted and also purchases for short account, but they failed to oreato a ripple. The semi-demoralization in stocks sympathetically affected tho railroad and miscellaneous bond market and material losses were recorded in many instances. The Vanderbilt 8tocks were especially depressed and in the Coaler3, on moderate dealings, extrt-me declines, extending to 7 per cent, in Lackawanna and 6 per cent. In New Jersey Central, occurred. The drop in tbe first named was on a single sale of 100 shares.

The selling in these cases was entirely credited to the bears. The leading Industrials and Grangers were among the heaviest sufferers. A feeble rally occurred in tho enrly part of tbe last hour, but the closing was weak at ciosa to the lowest and at declines extending from 1 to 7 per cent.
