Kanta city Liquor Men Starting Original Package Saloons. Kansas Citv, Mo., June 21. Numer-ous agents of local liquor men Jeft the city this morning to establish original stores in various parts of Kansas. One Union avenue firm sent representa-tive to Paola, Kansas, with instructions to write at once should he have trouble. In that event another agent will be sent to assist him in the disposal of wet goods, and legal talent will be for-warded to prevent his incarceration. At least thirty agents left tho city with similar purposes this morning, most of them bound for tho smaller towns of the state. The indications are that it will only be a few days until whisky and other intoxicants are again every day bever-ages in Kansas. The wholesale firms with an eye to business and the evasion of the law and which are getting Ju on the ground floor, expect to make a mint of money out of their operations. They say that if they are allowed to dispose of their goods under the original pack-age law with their own agents in the various towns, they can make a bigger percentage of profit than if the liquors were handled by saloon-keeper- All the firms are industriously pray-ing that the new law, which pro-hibits original package shipments, may not be passed, and they are besieg-ing Missouri representatives in Con-gress to delay action upon it. Lobby-ists have already gone from here to Wnshinort-n- for that, nnrnnap. Should the bill now before congress be passed, an attempt will be made to prove it un-constitutional, on the ground that inter-course between state and state cannot under the constitution be restricted. It is predicted that the failure of the prohibition law will make more pros-perous times for Kansas and Missouri. Among the agents is a well-know- n local politician, who said: "The dealers will, no doubt, suffer considerable annoyances and expense at the outset, for the prosecution attor-neys, who are prohibitionists, will fight us whether the law is with them or not. I hardly expect to escape being arrested myself, but with a supreme court decis-ion backing us, we have no real danger to feel." TI FIGHT ON SUM Hon. Francis G. Newlauds Tells of the Long Struggle for Free Coinage, WHERE THE PRESIDENT STANDS. Compromise Suggested Winilont Stioks on Bullion Redemption Work of the Silver Oomniittue. Hon. Francis G. Ncwlands, member of the National Executive. Silvor com-mittee for Nevada, arrived in the city last evening. Ho came direct from Washington, which city he left oue week ago today. When seen by a Times reporter, Mr. Newlands said that when he left Washington, he considered the silver question practically settled, but that the free coinage bill passed since by the senate had caused compli-cations that would delay matters some-what, but he is coulident that a satis-factory silver bill will be passed during this congress. "Iam certain," said Mr. Newlands, "that the president will veto theliill as passed by tho senate. He expressed himself so unequivocally on the sub-ject, both to myself and to others, that there is no doubt that this would be his course. He is a man of deter-mination, and not the weak man he is often represented to be." serious effect if a satisfactory bill is passed, and I thin' this will bo the case. But if a satisfactory silver bill does not go through this congress, I fear the effect on tho parly iu tho west will be disastrous." "Will the compromise suggested by President Harrison satisfy the westv" "As a progressive step, yes, if 4,500,' 000 ounces of silver is sub-stituted for worth. Tho advantage in ' this will lie that it will provide for tho purchase of a fixed quantity of silver, aud that the quantity will not dimmish as the price of silver goes up and thus, iu a meas-ure, retard its advance. BACK TO THE OLD PRICE. "Will not the enactment of such a law send the price of silver away up?" "There will, I think, be a gradual ad-vance iu the price and I believe that silver will go back to its old value- - $1 .20 per ounce. This will not happen, of course, if the increase in price results in any largo increase of the production. But I don't think there is auy surplus of silver iu the world that can be forced upon us, although the President has some such appreheniOus, and I have no fear of production being increased much. Allowance should be made, however, to the president for giving some weight to the possible effect of as yet unknown factors. v w indom'8 position. f "Now that I am out of the heat of dis-cussion, I think I ought to say that 1 don't regard Secretary Windom as unfriendly to silver, although the silver committee has been lighting his measure. It is impossible to rend his report of the condition of ihe finances of the country, without being convinced that he wishes to both largely increase the purchase and the price of bu'Hoii. Two things indicate this. He candidly admitted that the currency of the coun-try ought to be increased, uud that it could stand an annual increase of $50, 000. 000. He also declar-ed that the silver of the country ought to be utilized iu making this increase and nt tho same time stated unequivocally that there was no sur-plus of silver in the world. Thus he gave the weight of bis authority to three propositions that congress might otherwise have debated upon for two years: His mistake was iu his recom-mendation as to bullion redemption. He did not retlect that whilst he pro-vided for tho redemption of silver cer-tificates in so many gold dollars worth of silver bullion, he tiuis anchored their' value to gold aud was thus in reality establishing tirmly a gold standard and opening the door to tho possi-ble ultimate demonetization of silver. While the silver committee has tenaciously fought Mr. Wiudoiu's prop-osition, I think we ought, to concede that he did good work for silver iu his report at least, aud WORK OF THU COJIMITTKE. "The two senators to whom tho pres-ident communicated his position were Stowart and Jones. They communi-cated with mo a few hours before my departure, and I then considered (hat it would carry and that t he whole ques-tion was practically settled; and I yet think, in spite of the new turn of affairs, that some such measure will be passed and signed by the president. "The St. Louis convention first woke up tho people of the country generally to the importance of the subject. The farmers of the west and the planters of tho south were there, ami acted as missionaries for tho cause. The work of thai convention was supple-mented by the etl'orts of the committee appointed, with Gen. A. J. Warner, of Ohio, at its head. The 'committee lias been In session continuously at Wash-ingto- n and has done a great work iu au educational way by the distribution of literature, speeches, pamphlet:, and addresses, and by organising agitation among the farmers and labor organiza-tions. The work- has been systematic-ally done. Gen. Warnerjis an able, ener-getic man, and the work accomplished is largely due to his efforts. " It is now proposed to extend the fame kind of agitation to England, Germany and France, with a view to bringing about united action of the nations for free coinage. " Mr. Newland will deliver an address on the silver questiou and the work of the association at the mining exchange at 4 o'clock this afternoon. A cordial invitation is extended to all Interested in the subject. THE PKESlDKNT'S POSITION. . "The president declares himself as good a friend of silver as there is in the couutry, but ha claims that, with free coiuage, we don't know to what extent other nations will throw their silver into this country, aud that we don't know to what extent the production of silver in this country will bo stimu-lated. He believes iu a limited, pur-chase of silver and the issuance of cer-tificates redeemable in coin or, upon demand of the holder and in the in the discretion of the secretary of the treas-ury, redeemable in bullion. In other words, he believes in the Windom bill." "But the day before I left Washing-ton the president sent for two scuators mid told them that he wished the silver bill to go through as a party measure, nnd that he was williug to' waive in bullion and sign a bill pro-viding for the purchase of $1,500,000 worth of silver per month, upou which certificates were to bo issued; these cer-tificates to be a legal tender." " 1 infer, however, from the bill that lias been passed that this compromise suggested by the president was not ac-cepted by enough rcpublicau senators to cnablo it to pass as a party measure Bad blood has been stir-ve- d up, by protracted discussion and ilebate, and the senators from Colorado, Montana and Kansas probably de-termined to force a vote upon free coinage. It is possible that other com-plications arose after I left, but tho eoocl judgment of Senator Teller can be trusted not to imperil tho cause of wlver, and possibly .fearing that the houso might juggle with this compro-mise, suggested, by the president, lie and his associates may have .concluded to take au extreme .position in order to make ' more 'sure of ultimate suc-cess. '.'. iiAURisov is friendly: :, "I am, however, firmly convinced from my interview with the president, that the president is friendly to silver, and that his tenacity with reference to bullion redemption is due to his desire, as he expresses it, to anchor the value of to. the commercial values of the world in order that sil-ver and gold may not part company in this country. He has ascer-tained, however, that the men of the west regard bullion redemption with suspicion as a measure that may lead to the ultimate demonetization of silver, the retirement of the certificates issued for the bullion, and the throwing of the accumulated bullion upon the markets of the world. Whilst President Harri-son does not share in these fears as to effects of the bullion redemption, he bus finally yielded to his opponents in the matter." "I am of the opinion that now a com-promise measure will be finally agreed upon by Congress upon the lines sug-gested by the president, with the possi-ble substitution of 4,500,000 ozs. of silver for the $4,500,000 worth and the strik-ing out of the clause in regard to bul lion redemption.

We extract the following items from the last issue Of t the1 Arizona Kicker; says the Detroit Free Press: Last Saturday the Granite Hills Sav-ings bank of this town failed to open its doors, aud a notice was posted up to the effect that it would open up in about a week and pay at least 50 cents on the dollar. Tho boys got together about 10 o'clock and Mr. Duggan, the president, was invited to explain matters. He said he hadn't time jjust thett, but after a rope had been passed over his head he explained that the failure had been caused in silver mine investments. The boys doubted this, and Mr. Duggan wis taken to the bank and compelled to show his books and his cash. After figuring for about two hours a commit-tee found that there was mouey enough to pay every depositor $1.47 on the dol-lar, and it was accordingly passed out and the bank wound up in ship-shap- e fashiou. It was no failure, but simply going out of business. Mr. Duggan had calculated on a little scoop, but the boys got ahead of him. lie left town on foot, carrying a spare paper collar in his hind pocket, aud he will probably look for some town in hayseed which to begin life anew. We have a failure here in trade now and then, but we permit no bank to fail unless all depositors are first paid in full. e Jim Harrison who has been a familiar figure on our streets for the last year anil who was supposed to be a retired Hour merchant from Minne-sota, out here to cure his asthma, is with us no more. He departed yester-day in charge of a detective, and will bring up at Jolict as the end of his journey. Judge Jim objected to the course of the Kicker. He didn't like us one bit, and when he saw us walking to the front he felt it a personal hit to him-self. Ho threw out his hints that we were trying to run the town, but that he would limke us chew cactus before he was done with us. One day two weeks ago ho tried to force us into a personal quarrel, and we learned after-wards that lie had a derringer in his pants pocket and shapucd it at us, but it failed to go off. I.elicviug that ive could run the town bet ler t ban the judge, we began hunt-ing up his pedigree, aud in tho course of a week discovered that ho was an "escaped gentleman"froiu state prison. He went away saying that ho owed us one, but as he has seven years yet to serve, we shan't begin to worry for some time yet. HE IS OUT OF THE RACE. Harriaon Not a Candidate for a Renom-Inatlo- n. Washington, D. C, June 21. Spe- cial. The Evening Critic has a double leaded article headed, "Out of the Race." " Harrison is not a candidate for rcnomination." It says: "A gen-tleman who enjoys the most intimate relations with President Harrison, and with whom the executive talks concern-ing important matters in the most con-fidential manner, called at the White houso during the past week. The con-versation turned upon tho silver ques- tion and the possibility of the passage of a freo coinage bill by congress, and the president's visitor urged upon him the benefits of such an act and tho great popularity to be gained by signing it, as well as the advantages which would accrue to the republican party by reason of such leg- islation. The president listened to his friend patiently and courteously and then replied in these terras: "I am not here for the purpose of acting in the interest of myself or of my party, but in the interest of the people of the country. When my term is out I ex-pect to return to Indianapolis aud re- sume the practice of law." "Those declarations are in tone aud manner characteristic of President Har-rison, and which indicated plaiuly to his friend that he had thought long and deep on the subject, and had made up his mind upon it. Having arrived at a deliberate determination in this wav president's decision is unalterable, it can not be shaken by personal thrta nor can he be driven from it by per- sonal consideration: so his friend came away fully convinced that Fresident Harrison was not and would not be a candidate for renomiuation and and lhat he h't reached the final settled conclusion to serve out his term doing what seemed best to him ia ?ILat!ei?-a- s ll?ey arose, and then to quiet life as a practicing lawyer in the courts of Indiaha " Park City f'ew, Pakk City, Utah.

It is often called for on the Facine slope, and is drunk with great relish by the residents of Califor-nai- , Nevada and Arizona. It is called an oyster cocktail. In the preparation of the queer drink Puget Sound oysters no bigger than a thumb nail are used. Four or five of these oysters are placed in tho bottom of a glass, and a sufficient quantity of whisky to suit tho taste of the drinker is poured upon the oysters On account of their size the oysters are carried easily on the current of whiskey over the palate.
