A Correspondent Says Philadelphia Business Houses Show Signs of Renewed Activity. . .U Chicago, Nov. 9 The Philadelphia correspondent of the Record last Friday wrote as follows to his paper: The revival of industry that was promised in case of McKinleys election was no campaign bluff so far as Philadelphia was concerned, for on Monday morning more than 100,000 men in this city and its suburbs will take up their tools for the first time for several months. - At the Manufacturers club, which is a social rendezvous for the manufacturers of Pennsylvania; New Jersey and Delaware, and at the Bourse, which Is the business rendezvous of the wholesale dealers, contractors,, commismanufacturers, sion men, freight agents, of transportation companies and country buyers, it Is said that the close of this month will see more activity in industrial and commercial circles than has been enjoyed since the panic of 1893. Statisticians are at work making an enumeration of the contracts that were contingent upon McKinleys election, and the value of the material and labor involved, so that it may furnish an object lesson for the benefit of those who desire to continue the controversy over the finances still further. They already have information of contracts involving many millions, upon which work has been commenced or will be the coming week. The wholesale men on the bourse report that they are sending out drummers as fast as they can get ready, and that there has been an unexpected increase in the number and value of mail orders from every direction since the result of the election is known. Freight agents report active demand for transportation facilities, which is a most favorable sign. Manufacturers say that merchants in all lines of goods and in all parts of the country have let their stocks run down to the very lowest degree possible without damaging their trade, that customers " ry bae beeireeonomizing and will which purchases, now be made, and that all these condi- tions and distribution of money among workingmen who have been unemployed for months will make retail business brisker than it has been for three years. Everybody is cheerful and confident, and that fact alone is a stimulant that gives a tone to financial and commercial circles that has not been felt for a long time. Everybody I have met here is certain that better times have come, and that before the end of the year all the shops in the country will be open and At all the idle workmen employed. the Manufacturers club every man I met told me of factories of his personal knowledge around this city that have been closed or working on half time for months, but will start in with full hands and full time on Monday, or soon after. Every merchant said that he already felt the revival in his correspondence and through customers coming in from the country. In the Cramp shipyards 1,000 men will go on the pay roll, who have not earned a dollar since last spring. The representative of a bridge company told me that he had already forwarded orders for more than a million dollars worth of structural iron, which would absorb the entire capacity of the works for some time, and necessitate the employment of two shifts of men working day and night. A gentleman from Delaware reports that every manufacturer in that state is getting ready to- - resume work on full time, and that he knows of more orders contingent upon the election than have 'been received there for a year past. A woolen manufacturer said he had refused emergency orders from Philadelphia merchants for the winters trade, because it is impossible for him to fill them on account of contracts with regular customers in New York and the West that were held up until after the election. A wholesale notion merchant said he from one of his had a telegram y drummers, who started out on Wednesday, ordering full lines of all sorts of goods sent to two dealers In an interior city of the state. He wired that everybody was short of stock, and advised them to get ready to fill large orders. postpon-Ingvinecessa- V X, ; W1U Wages. Peoria, 111., Nov. 8.

J. Warner Issues an of silver. CONTINUES THE FIGHT Address. Washington, Nov. 9. Tlie campaign for the free coinage of silver will be waged with vigor during the next four years in preparation for tlie election in 1900. The directors of the American Bimetallic Union, who constitute the bulk of the silver leaders in the three parties, have decided to maintain headquarters in this city, from which to send out literature. The branch office at Chicago will be consolidated with the Washington office, but the San Francisco branch is to be continued. At the request of the directors, General A. J. Warner, the president of the union, has issued the following address to the Silver League and Bimetallic Unions of the United States: Silver has lost in this election, but the battle for the overthrow of tlie gold standard has not ended. The disastrous results that must attend upon the continuance of this standard make it impossible to relinquish the struggle against it until it is finally overthrown. The gold standard cannot be maintained by increasing the revenues, because revenues are not paid in gold. The attempt to maintain the gold standard by perpetual loans must also sooner or later fail. The only other way is by contracting the currency and forcing prices so low that go'd will come here of itself in such quantities as to constitute, in part at least, the currency with which revenues are paid, and no debtor nation can loug maintain such a policy. Either course therefore leads to inevitable ruin, the one by bankrupting the government and the other by bankrupting the people. Either policy will subject the United States absolutely to British domination and hence the rejoicing of the British press over the defeat of silver here. The victory for gold is a victory of trysts and syndicated wealth, brought about by corruption and coercion, and not a victory of the people or for the people, and it cannot last. There must be an end also to the constant appreciation of money. The appreciation of money alone, if allowed to eo on at the rate it has gone on for the past twenty years, will, in half generation more, transfer the bulk of all wealth of this country from those who have created it to the hands of the few who control the money and own the debts. No power can be conceived so potent to gather wealth into few hands as the ceaseless, all pervading power of an appreciating money standard. No civilization can stand against it. It must end or the foundations upon which free institutions rest will be broken up. The battle, therefore, for the restoration of silver must go on without abatement; and I urge upon all silver and bimetallist leagues and unions to keep up their organization and to continue the fight till victory for the people is finally won. The noble fight made by our intrepid leader in the campaign just ended endears him to all who believe in the righteousness of our cause, and under his leadership we believe victory will be won in 1900. AFTER THE ELECTION. MKINLEYS PLANS. Hr Hanna Says an Extra Hussion Will Be Called After the Inauguration. New York, Nov. 8. The World this morning says: Mark Hanna gave the World the following outline of what he understood to be President-elec- t McKinleys general policy: I have had but comparatively brief conversations with Major McKinley since his election. Next week I expect to meet him at Cleveland, and, as he has had time to think over the matters, I presume he will have more details than I am at present aware of. But this much I know, he feels that he owes much to the patriotic Democrats who prefer iirinciple to strict party ties. Indiana, for instance, was unquestionably carried against fusion Democratic votes. He recognizes the very great service performed by Democratic and ii dependent newspapers during the campaign. Major McKinley will endeavor to see collected a great national party that wTill give prosperity to the country. He expects and hopes that men of all shades of former political belief will be united to this end. I have talked with some of the most influential of the old Democratic leaders, and I am glad to say they are in accord with Major McKinleys hopes. The first movement lie will make will be to obtain sufficient revenue to conduct tlie government. Further issues of bonds would be altogether too dangerous. Business prosperity and stability demands that as soon as possible the government should be on a paying basis. To this end an extra session of Congress will be necessary, and President McKinley will undoubtedly call one soon after bis inauguration. Legislation will be required to secure the iWired revenue, and Mr. McKinley will do everything in bis power to secure it, as well as the legal establishment of a policy which will tend to put everybody at work. In all this he hope' and expects that he will be backed by patriotic men, regardless of party lines. As for myself, I am not after any office, and will endeavor to attend to private business affairs which need my personal supervision. Asked what Democrats of note he had talked with on the subject of the I do not future, Mr. Hanna said: wish to name them all, but I may mention Messrs. W. C. Whitney and Abram S. Hewitt as examples. -- REJOICING Delegations Presiden- t-Elect. Canton. Ohio, Nov. 8. Much as President-elect McKinley has desired to get his wife from the excitement about his Canton home, it was decided last evening that it was best for Mrs. McKinley not to attempt the trip before Wednesday or Thursday of next week instead of Monday, as expected. The scenes of congratulations and jollification have continued without cessation, and yesterday thousands of people marched through the streets and gathered about the house hours before last nights big jollification began. At the breakfast table Major McKinley was signalled by farmers who have traveled miles to come to Canton and who tapped at the window and beckoned to him their greetings. He responded to their manifestations of good will by seizing a jardinier fiHed with immense chrysanthemums and going to a side door made them happy by giving them such floral beauties as are seldom seen anywhere. All day long the joyous people marched the streets and filled the sidewalks. They came in special trains and special cars, on regular trains and by carriage, horseback, bicycle and afoot. General Manager Woodford of the Cleveland, Lorraine & Wheeling railway, brought a carload of Cleveland people, including Miss Lillian Hanna, sister of the national Republican chairman.
