Numerous Letters Asking That
Congress Be Convened
In Order to Immediately
Repeal the Sherman Act
—PetTer's View.
Washington, June US.—Secre-
tary Carlisle's mail this morning
waa loaded down with letters
from bankers, commercial men
and others calling on the presi-
dent to convene congress at once
in extra session to cousider tlnan-
cial legislation. The pressure was
great, bat there is semi-official au-
thority for the statement that
congress will not be convene i be
fore September. A cabinet officer
speaking of the financial situation
said this morning there whs no
doubt in his mind that the repeal
of the Sherman law would bring (
about much needed relief, wheth- I
* r temporary or permanent time |
aloue could demonstrate. Bull |
there was no certainty e\en now
that congress would repeal the
8herinan law. I'lie house is more
favorable to its repe.u than the
Semite. He lutimati il if the presi j
dent whs convinced congress I
would immediately repeal thel
Sherman law, that body might l>e (
convened in extra session before
September, but he concluded: |
"The silver dollar i* worth today J
as bullion .">7 cents. Since the
treasury went out of the market
as a purchaser of silver. June 1,
the price li is declined troni ?<•
to -^O.7■per ounce. Ne\t .Mon-
day, July is the time tor the
next purchase to begin, but it is
hinted at the treasury departmant
that purchase may be delayed un
til July or 7. Secretary Car
lisle is giving close attention to
the situation and will have a spe-
cial conference with the president
on the silver question tonight.

Star says: The tulk of the radi
cal silver men since they have
got over the lirst shock ot tne
news from India is rat'ier deiinn'.
Most of the:u d« ciare they
more than ever detcrmi-K
maintain the white metal
money standard. While a
ting that demonetization in India
is a hard blow to bi-t:ietallisni at
the present ratio they spe.il, ot it
as a conspiracy and insist it is
more than ever important that
this country should stand ;>v sil
ver. They claim to be miner than
ever in the position and they in-
tend to tight with all their might
to prevent the further degraila
tion of silver. More conserva-
tive men. however, regard it as
whistling against the win i. Their
best jndgme.it is that many of
those iiic.i known as moderate
silver men whose votes in con-
gress have given silver the
strength it has had agaiuec the
repeal of the Sherman law, will be
induced to l^ok upon the <|iies-
tion differently under existing
conditions and that while the
radicals will light as ever against
the repeal they will lose many
followers in the house aud some
in the senate. Those who are not I
actually wedded to silver, but
vote for free coinage because
their constituents think there I
should be more money in circnla- i
tion will, it is believed, find in the j
present situation an excuse and
reason for voting the Sherman
law olT the statute books, perhaps |
even without any sort ofsnbstitu-l
tion as a compromise. IJepre-

Indianapolis, Ind, June js.—
Senator I'etTer, who is in town,
said today in answer to the ipies j
tion:
"Will congress meet before |
September ?"
"No, Washington is too warm |
a place in summer and most of the I
members would oppose it."
"What action on silver do you j
anticipate at the next session!"
"The Sherman law will be re
pealed the tirst thing. The effect :
of this will be to destroy both of
the old parties and build up a I
new one. That will be followed j
by a new alignment ot parties.
Some new organizations are soon ,
to come Into existence. The peo
pie's party is but the preliminary i
makeup of a new one which is to I
assume control. The new organi-
sation is to be composed of tho |
people's party mostly and it will
receive many recruits from both
of the other large ornanizations
which are now closing their ca-
ro6r.n
"What Is to be the foundation
of the new party?"
"Its fundamental principle will
be the common rights of men. It
will be based on the right which
people should have to manage
their own affairs in their own
Way."
j "What effect will the Indian
gilver movement havel"
"It will hasten the demonetiza-
tion of gold. Then will come a
redaction of the price of property.
After that will follow financial
crashes over the conntry. It
means a general panic. Oat of
tjbis will mach strength in the
people's party grow. The silver
qneatioa has been giving as mach
qrt ellaleef."

X X, June 27.—
Captain < luthrie to countermand
his order for the withdrawal of
troops from the Choctaw court
grounds at Wilborton for a few
days. He will hold them there at
least during the trial of the more
important cases which will occu-
py the balance of this week. The
catpain does not seem so appre-
hensive of trouble as the judge.
It's safe to say that the miuor
cases pending will no' receive at-
tention at this term of court un-
less the dr.te of the execution is
extended. The danger of a con-
flict will have been passed when
those convicted at NV ilburton
have been executed, though it is j
probable some bushwhacking may
follow. The Choctaws residing
here were considerably agitated |
when the report reached here last
night that the court had been
compelled to close aud were pre-
vented from riding to the scene
only after positive assurance that
the report was false."

Chicago,- June 29.—A slump of
over 2 cents in the price of wheat
occurred today before trading had
been iu progress an hour. Carry-
ing charges for sixty days are the
most astonishing ever known.
The spread was 4Jc a bushel a
few days ago when there was some
let up iu money stringency. To-
day's break in prices was chietly
attributed to the surpris-
ing news from India, fol-
lowing the silver sensation
f"oiii that country. The surprise
was a statement credited to
Beerbohm saying that five dis-
tricts of India had raised fifty-six
million bushels more wheat this
year than last. Other cable news
was also weak and the plunge
downward began from the start.
The market opened ex:actly one
cent per bushel down for July
and one-half cent for September.
July rallied 3-.S to 04 and then de-
clined to 62 5-8, establishing a
brand new record for the lowest
price on wheat ever known in
Chicago. Erom G2 0 8 there was
a partial recovery to 03. Trading
on the decline was decidedly ac-
tive and iu the market there was
considerable excitement.

His departure so suddenly leaves
a number of important appoint-
ments agreed upon unsigned;
many senators and congressmen
who recently arrived in the lurch.
It is understood the president
will trans-act only the most im-
portant business while at Buz-
zard's Bay, and what official an-
nouncements are to be made will
be given out at the executive
mansion in Washington.
This evening the following
proclamation was issued:

A Rabbi Talks.
A novel spectacle was present-
ed at tbe Denton street Presbyte-
rian church last night. It was the
regular meeting of the Baptist
Young People's society, and the
pastor had invited Rabbi Marcus
of *the Hebrew congregation to
tell "What the Jews Think of
Christians."
Rev. Harris introduced him and
told him to speak freely.
Rabbi Marcus thanked the pas
tor and said it was the first time
in this city that the followers of
the "Sage of Nazareth" had ever
permitted a Jew to enter the holy
of holies. He said many good
things and was intently listened
to.
Dr. Marcus has only been in
America a little more than three
years and, coming from Russia,
the spectacle of a Christian min-
ister inviting a Jew into his pol-
pit was to him indeed novel.
He said the Jews thought no
harm of Christians. He said that
every Jew was prond of the
achievements of Christianity be-
cause he remembered that it had
its origin in Judaism.
His talk was certainly interest-
ing and was enjoyed by all who
beard it.
