A prominent banker of Waif street in discussing the action of the Indian government, Monday, said: "That is a crushing blow to silver. The effect will be paralyzing to the wole silver market. I think the settlement of the silver question in this country is now at hand. The price of the Indian rupee has been declining steadily for months, and this has brought about the suspension of free coinage."

Culbertson, of New Albany, was married to Mr. Leigh Hill French, of Minneapolis, at the former city,
Toesday. Mr. Culbertson, a millionaire, left a codicil in his will disinheriting his daughter Blanche in case of her marriage td French within ten years of the testator's death, and as a result of the family opposition to French Miss Blanche became engaged to Capt. Donald McKay, of the English army, but a short time ago tho lajdy met her old lover in Chicago and the old pasision was revived. McKay was thrown over and the marriage to French followed. Suit has been brought to set aside the disinheriting codicil. Dr. J, C. Joliff, of Sheridan, has discovered what he believes is a new process in the art of embalming, which, according tc history, is something similar to the- ancient Egyptian method. From a practical .test a body has been kept for two years. The fluid is injected into the stomach through the-nasal passages, hence net an incision is necessary. A body so embalmed retains lifelike color until mumiflcation sets in, ivhich is usually in about seventy-five days. He exhibits specimens of turtles, fish and a veal's heart which have been embalmed fourteen months, The time required to embalm a body is not more than ten to fifteen minutes. It has been used in embalming two bodies in that vicinity the pas; week to the entire Satisfaction of the friends. There are no poisonous drugs used Mi the composition of this wonderful fluid. It is understood in tho mining district that the block coal operators will join with the bituminous men in resisting tho law providing for the weekly payment of miners and the weighing of coal as it comes from the mines. The scale which the employes signed six weeks ago calls for semi-monthly pay and the acceptance of screened coal as a basis for payment. Since then pressure has been brought upon ths State mine inspector to enforce tho Jaw, and for this reason the operators in both fields are organizing for resistance in
f the courts. The operators elatin that. J this feature of the.luw is defective, being I a legislative attempt to interfere with in
dividual liberty in entering into a business contract, and are confident it will bo declared unconstitutional on appeal to the Supreme Court. They also hold that it is a matter over which the State mine inspector has no jurisdiction. THE ABSfixTrSlC. The Financial Situation and the Kxt:a tension of Congress. New York bankers, Wednesday, reported an easier condition of the money market. There was much talk in Wall street as to the reasons which prevented the President calling Congress together imm;dia,ely. One of tho reports was to the et?e-f;tthat the President in conversation with a loading member of the House had said that while thee was no reasonable doubt about there being a majority in the House favorable to tho repeat of tiiH Sherman law, it was by no means cor-ta-n that a like result would follow in tlu; Senate, and that this uncertainty of Senate was the principal factor against the calling of an extra session fa rl ! e r than S e p te ui be r . An i nt i m a te friend orf Secretary Carlisle is authority for the statement that a canvass made in Mr. Cleveland's behalf hats disclosed tho fact that while there is a majority of the. House favorable to the repeal of the law there is a majority of twenty in the Senate the other war. A genera! belief prevails, however, that an-extra session of Congress will bo called very soon. Bankers and many prominent business mon are bsieglng Secretary Carlisle, and urging that Congress bo convened at once. The talk of the silver men since they have got ov?r the shock of the news from India is defiant and they declare that they are more than ever determined to maintain tko wjiiie metal as a money standard, A monument commemorative of the Ft, Dearborn massacre; the gift of Geo.

In an address before your league, last summer, at Huffalo, I had occasion to say that there was no intelligent business man, no matter what his politics, who did not know that tho changes in th6 currency and tho tariff threatened by our op ponents, whatever their ultimate consequences, meant at the outset a general disturbance and unsettlement of business
for at least eighteen months. The result is now upon us. By so much as Mr. Cleveland in these unhappy trials poves himself better than his party he vill have our loyal and patriotic support. Ib is our country as well as theirs; and it is our policy, not theirs, under which It has had its magnificent prosperity and growth.
