In truth 'the popularity of free silver depends not upon any definite knowledge of the results but upon a vague idea that if there was more money in the country every i map would get more. If such were the case it is clear that the currency would be depreciated which the- free silver men deny. If it would not be depreciated no man could get more of it than he does now. The free silver idea is an outgrowth of restlessness, aa inclination to try any change with a vague hope of improvement.

It is the 'patent medicine of politics, an imaginary panacea for poverty. Let the people wisely accumulate those things which are convertible into coin at' any market and the circulating medium will be ample to effect any axchange As to price that is proper subject of legislative action.

OV THE RETOEUR; All posts of the Grand Army oJ the Republic are ordered to meet the funeral train of General Sherman at the railroad stations en route from New York to St. Louis and salute the remains us they pass."

Mrs. Blaine and Mrs. Damrosch are the only ladies in the. party. ST.

Louis, Feb. accordance tvitb the wishes of the family the Grand Army funeral ceremonies or ritual will be omitted at the grave on the occasion of the Sherman obsequies. The regular-army ceremonies will be earned out instead; and there will be no religious services whatever. At- Tuesday afternoon's meeting 'of the executive committee General Merritt was selected as grand marshal, he having signified his willingness to serve. The line of march selected is.

as follows; Union depot to Lucas square, where the cortege will form, west on Pine, street to Grand avenue, north on Grand avenue to Florissant avenue and thence to Calvary "Cemetery. The question has been raised as to whether or not General Sherman can be buried in Calvary Cemetery. A high church official is authority for the statement that even though. last.rites of the church were not administered his failure to receive such rites would interfere in no way with his interment in Calvary, only a portion of the cemetery being consecrated. That part of the burial ground in which Mrs.

Sherman was interred is not consecrated. From advices received from cities and towns in surrounding States it is assured that -large delegations of Grand Army men and Sons of Veterans will attend the funeral. General Merritt has arranged to place a squad, of artillery on the levee and they will fire a'salute as'the funeral train enters upon the bridge across the Mis- sissippi river. Another detachment will be placed in O'Fallon Park and will fire a salute as the procession passes that point. Numerous offerings of fljrj.1 tributes have been received by the committee, I but in accordance with the wishes of the family ancl in conformity with the severe simplicity of a military funeral, there will be absolutely no flowers.

After the funeral a guard will be sta tioned at the grave of General Sherman t3 prevent any possible designs on the part of the unscrupulous anil as a mark of honor. on a Locomotive Pilot.

A bill prescribing punishment for spectators of prize-fights was engrossed by the Senate Tuesday, ft was explained by the author, Mr. the measure was meant to be especially applicable to people who come over into Lake County from Chicago, to hold prize-fights.

As the train makes no stops before reaching this city, the mej would force open the door with an axe and gc through the contents of the car at their leisure, and as the train slowed up coming into the city the goods would he thrown off. The men would alight and carry ofi the plunder before morning.

A Mcther and Her Four Children Lose Their Other Person Fatally Burned. BlKIl WITir HER. UABKlj. YORK, Feb. woman and four children, were suffocated and a man was probably fatally burned in a fire that occurred at Deimonico place and IIopkinson avenue, Brooklyn.

The building in which the fire occurred is a three-story frame structure. The basement and the ground floor were used as a bukery, and two families lived on the floors above. VTacob Enrich was at work in the basement Over a pot of boiling fat at half-past 4 o'clock a. when the fat boiled over and running to the floor set fire to the surrounding wood-work. In a few minutes the building was on fire, and dense smoke was pouring through the halls.

Enrich was badly burned, and the doctors say he can not recover. An alarm was sent out and the firemen and were quickly at work. They managed to subdue the flames after the bakery and second floor had been gutted. The firemen as soon as possible made a search of the building, and on the top floor found Mrs. John Henry and her four children dead.

The woman and her children were asleep when the fire broke out and were overcome by the smoke before they could escape. The bodies of Mrs. Henry and two of the -children were found in the hallway at the top of the stairs.

SHOT DOWN LIKE DOGS. the Cuban fiovtrnmenfs Queer Way of Disposing- of a Party of Offenders Enticed on Board Ship and Tlien Shot-Four of the Party KUlOled with Yoacg Wife mid Mother a Victim. NEW YOKK, Feb. letter has reached this city dated Havana, Cuba, February 11, which gave an account of another "cold-blooded murder the Cuban Government. Four men, it is said, were shot down, and a young wife who was attending to her baby was mortally wounded.

About four weeks ago Manuel Garcia, a police officer, captured a band of robbers whose leader was Domingo Montelongo. Soon after the capture Montelongo was approached by a representative of the Government, who told him if he and his fiiends would leave the country the Government would see that they ran no risk in doing BO. He consented, and selected to accompany him Eulogio Rivero, Perico Rivero, Juan Roja and Francisco del Gado. Eulogio Rivero's yourjg wife and child also accompanied the party, which started out for Havana by the Villanueva railroad. Reaching Havana the party took a 'steamer which was to carry them to South America.

As they started for their cabin they were confronted by a number of armed gendarmes, who immediately opened fire upon them. Perico Rivero fell in the corner of the nearest cabin, riddled by more than a dozen bullets. Juan Roja had. nothing but a murderous dagger, yet with this he did some desperate fighting. He was soon overpowered and killed by the bullets from the revolvers of the police.

Mrs. Rivero, whs was nursing her baby at the time the firing- began, rushed out of her cabin and was severely beaten by one of the officers till she dropped to the floor insensible. The gendarmes finally drove the rest of the party to the deck and continued their firing, -frightening the other passengers- and wounding several. Montelongo and E. Rivero dropped over the side of the vessel and jumped into a small row-boat, and compelled the owner i it to row for all he was worth.

When the police saw the attempt to escape they immediately sent a. shower of bullets into the little boat and both the bandits: Rivero dropped into the saa. The bodies were recovered arid taken to the city. Mrs. Rivero, who was horribly wounded, is under arrest and in the prison hospital.

The newspapers are loud in their, denunciations of this brutal murder and. breach, of faith on the part of the Government. The officials, however, say that it was the surest way of getting rid of a band of bold bandits. to Close Up. KEW YORK, Feb.
