WAKNEB IS 8NCBBKD. San Fkancisco, May 15 Instead of the great results for free coinage aimed at, the visit to California of General A. J. Warner, ot Ohio, head of the American Ameri-can bimetallic party, and Congressman Congress-man Joseph C. Sibley, of Pennsylvania, named by that organization for president presi-dent in 1896, has apparently been productive pro-ductive oi the opposite effect. The effect ef-fect is the Hat secession of the state Bilker league from General Warner's national organization. The executive committee has prepared pre-pared resolutions denouncing the Warner-Sibley movement as an atempt to dictate a presidential nomination in advance; appealing to sister states to organize like the California league, and to protest against the caucus method, and call for a national convention con-vention of state leagues to meet at St Louis March 16, 189(5, to nomin te candidates can-didates for president and vice-president The resolutions charge General Warner, as chairman of a "self-stvied national executive committee," with "establishing rival organizations in this and other states to force the favorite of the condemned caucus upon the American Ameri-can people." The Etate silver league also finds fault with General Warner for limiting limit-ing his efforts to an attempt to secure the unlimited coinage of silver at a ration of 16 to 1. The league contains a large number of populists, and they do not think any huanciai platform would be complete unlese it included a prevision for an issue of greer backs and an explicit declaration against the national banking system and the issuance of any more government bonds. Colfax, Wash., My 15. General A. J. Warner when shown a dispatch that the California Slate Silver league had withdrawn from the American bimetallic party, and denounced Warner War-ner tor booming Sibley lor president, said: '-There is no state silver league in California. We addressed the silver sil-ver league of Los Angeles, end there were some crsnks at the meeting headed by an anarchist named Udeil, who threatened to denounce Sibley and myself. This opposition was engendered en-gendered because the disapproves were populists, and wanted to control the movement in the interest of the populiste. I am certainly adyocatine Mr. Sibley's candidacy for the presidency." presi-dency." Mr. Sibley declined to discuss dis-cuss the question, except to say he was not a candidate for the presidency. OTHER MILLS MAY FOLLOW CABNEOIe'S ACTION. Pittsburg, May 15. It ia generally I believed that tbe 10 per cent, increase in wages granted by the Carnegie company yesterday will cause a similar increase in all the steel mills or the country. An official of-ficial of the Carnegie company Etated today that the other companies woutd be forced to give the same advance ad-vance to avoid strikes, which they cannot can-not afford to stand at the present time. Today a member of the sheet i manufacturers' association declared, however, that the Carnegie advance id not justified t'y the present market I conditions, and that there must be a . general advance in the price of rails, !b?ams, billets and plates inside of tbirly days.

It was learned today from the driver of the - mail stage between San Carlos and i the abandoned post, Fort Thomas, that the renegade Apaehea had a npht with the Indians on the reservation, Killing one squaw, injuring several others and carrying one away.
