(Special to the Star.) New York, October 26.\u2014Within little wore than one week the people of the United States will have decided the most important question that has confronted them since the civil war, the ques tion that they \u2018have p to time, but could evade no longer, whether they will adhere to the tried gold standard of money or plunge into the uncertainties of silver coinage.Millions upon millions of money de pend upon the result, and in the opin- lon of n great many of the best citizens of the country, the integrity and very life of the nation are at stake.Fore knowledge of the issue would he valuable beyond the limits of computation.Virtually the whole capital of the country is held in abeyance till the votes are counted.Victary for silver, ac cording to the beliel of a great ma- , jority of the business men of the land, would mean panic and catastrophe, of which no man can ses the end.The triumph of gold, they declare, would bring to the country a restoration of confidenre and à revival of business that have been lacking since the waves of the Baring panic reached these shores more than three years ago, and swelled to tha proportions of a tidal wave the fright caused by the inundation of silver dollars poured out under the Silver Purchasing Act, the repeal of which in 1893 served to arrest for the moment but not to put down the flood.If it were known to-day beyond peradventure that McKinley was to be chosen on the third prox.money would flow out from tens of thousands of into enterprises of all-\u2014kinds, eager to take the earliest advantage possible of the low prices that have prevailed.with occasional fluctuations, through these last ors of uncertainty and depression.x mer- chandiss now at the lowest ebb would be replenisbed ; _factories now cl because there .is no demas for .their products would be i hh ad sands upon thousands of orders in every branch of trade ocon- ditioned on the election of Moc Kinley would be executed.Alread venturesome speculators, satisfied wit the confident predictions of the politicians that Bryan will be snowed under, are taking risks in the exchanges, dis counting in a \u2018measure the victory they believe to be in sight.But the Conservative financiers,whose operations are of gigantic magnitude, and the mer chants who depend upon credit that is built an confidence and stability, are waiting impatiently till the polls are closed and the ballots counted.To atiempt now a detailed estimate of the probabilities is more than ordinarily difficult, because of the number of uncertain elements that have entered into the campaign.In the east it can not be said there is any doubt.The State elections in Maine and Vermont showed that here the silver heresy bas made little or ro progress, while the Populistic sentiments of the Chicago platform have driven to the Republican ranks thousands, of disgusted Demo- \u2018crats.who care pothi for party when SO grave a question pd bonor and national welfare is raised.> sic \u2018 Feet, onthe other hand, the tuation is much more rplexing.There, belief in silver as the universel panacea of all ills the flesh is heir to as taken deep ront, from many years of growth, and has spread among Re- blicans as well as democrats.The influence of the silver mine owners, who are powerful in many States beyond the Mississippi, has undoubtedly affected great numbers af voters, and it has been coupled during a large part of the pro- ganda for free coinage with much suf- ering nmong the farming classes, due to low prices for their products, which, though plainly the result of over-pro- duction, bas been plausibly made to appear as the outcome of increasing value the part of the : in tidal waters .ars., There- * of gold, the standard of value.This.| too.has given expanding vogue to the ; principles\u201d of Populism, a party which, ; never b>fore formidable, has now reached proportions that compel recognition.How far these ideas bave actually taken : hoid of the voters of the great western States only the election can reveal.The i Chicago convention indicated that they ; then had made great progress.| cour.:, the west has many conservative men, Democrats as well as Republicans, and there can be no doubt that among the former many have been turned from Bryan, who have heretofore always voted for the regular nominee of the rty.Do they outnumber the silver Hepa licans ?There is also to be considered the stalwart Derrorrats who repudiate Bryan, but will have none of Mo- Kinley or bis principles.For them, Palmer and Buckner were nominated.But whether they will actually benefit Me- Kinley is still vary much in doubt.To do so, tke vote for the third ticket must greatly exceed the Republican silver vote.Most important, also, is the re cent advance in the prices of grains, flying in tbe face, as it dos, of all that Bryan has told the farmers and bearing out the explanations of the sound mon:y men.The south too is full of problems only half solved.There populism is rife, but not definitely ennumerable.There too discontent has created a desire for change.And there the record is alto gether in favor of the Democrats.Yet in the south are many business men who agree with the business men of the east and many cotton growers and farmers, who have learned something of the value to them of a stable currency receivable at its face value the world over.too must be reckoned with.make up for the malcontents?.Of general factors the most important is the indisputable fact that in the last two months the Republicans and the sound money Democrats have carried on & most vigorous and well-organized campaign, the best speakers and the men of greatest influence in the country have raised their voices in every part of the country against Bryan and his doctrines, while on the Democratic side the leading men of the ty who in former cam- bave been foremost in the fight, | boun significantly silent, and even ;

Deleware has been Democratic since 1872 by pluralities ranging from 504 for Cleveland in 1892 to about 4,000, but she has shown plainly this year that there fs to be a c e and may Le safely counted for sound money.Turning now to the Western States claimed for McKinley we find more ground for argument.Illinois, like New ork, has always been doubtful.She gare Cleveland a handsome, majority in 892, after rejecting him by hearly as many votes in 1I&f \u2018This year she 1s relied on for the Republican column te- cause Chicago has shown unmistakably that she will give McKinley an enormous vote and there fs every reason to he- lieve that the work of Republican speakers through the state has brought about a decided reaction against Altgaldism.Conservative estimates give the State to McKinley by 80,600.In Indiana the situation is about the same, barring the Socinlistic element, Majorities there have gererally teen rar- row; Cleveland got 6.82 in 1892.Har- riso i he n in Populists cast 22,198 in the former year, and these votes Bryan will no doubt get.But in no state is the defection of Democrats larger and they will almost certainly far more than counter balance the Populists.The State should go to McKialey lowa is normally Republican by 20.002 to 30,000.The Populists polled 20.59! in 1832, and may have made gains, though the Republicans think they have not.Disaffected Democrats will swell the Republican vote there and the advance in rain will tend to cbeck Populistic doc- ines.McKinley stculd get the State by mo: less than 8000 plurality.Kentucky is likely to be one of the hottest fights.It has aiways been Democratic, the majorily ranging from 30:- 000 to 40,000, ut this year the leading men of the State have with one accord declared for sound inoney, the Republican speakers have me: with much success, and the probabilities are, that not less than 60,000 Democrats will vote He should get 0000 to 15,000 plurality in Kentucky.Michigan has a strong silver party, including many Republicans, and a month ago would have been put in the ryan column.There n a marked chan, there recently, however, ing to effective campaign work, and .M.Dickinson, who is not by any means & rainbow chaser rivately that the State is McKinley's It is perhapsithe Neobrasks, by not less than 5000.least certain in column, / The great sound money marine parade has assured his friends | BY GROCERS ONLY, Si are Exceptionally Mild And equally as fine in quality as the Noted Dark Colors of this Famous Brand.The Best & Cheapest ESPECIALLY IN SHIRTS!

white effects still find much favor among {ull dress toi lets both here and abroad.Regarding winter hats, low crowns are still fashionable, hut the conical! crowns more or less high make the latest ap- real to favor.Dressmakers are using shot.velvets tor the sleeve putfs, bretclles, girdles, ceintures and revers which are still a prominent feature ot fashionable corsages.Full medium-length capes of brocade are still preferred by very many women to the newer enveloping Jong cloaks, as the former do not crush the dress skirt or its garniture.The rage for-chiffe :n, mousselnine de soie, and tulle accessories, and for waists, sleeves and entire evenifig toilets is as great as if this began their first not- ablé season of popularity.Very elegant Persian embroideries are imported, designed tu trim costumes of, fine wool and corded silks.The foundation is a closely woven canvas, aod the beautiful devices are wrought in slack-twisted silks and fine gold and bronze threads intermixed with irrides- cent heads.Some of the new seven-gorel skirts are satin-corded, or covered with u narrow braid or bead gimp.Even the slo ed seam at the hack is trimmed like those on the front and sides.On these particular skirts, ruches, frills.ot er's folds, in tact, all foot-trimmings are omitted, to show the unbroken line of color on cach senm from belt to hem.Reversible satins of the stand-alone quality are mado great use of by high- class modistes.his season their two- toned effects are particularly charming.Green shot with gold, violet with reseda or deep rose color, palest pink with azurine, the new exquisite tint in blue, moss green with damask rose, silver gray and mauve, and many tints in yellow, with white, sea-greén, or vio- et.The newest walking\u2014coats are slightly longer than those of last spring.and all the oll ripple on.the skirt portion.bas vanished, gp basques fitting smooth- IF over \u2018the front and aides, with no | extra material at the bavk, only a graceful fulness, just enough to allow the coat skirt to fall easily above the dress skirt.Simple English styles are made without revers, showing a hig! standing.collar and medium sleevea.Bolero, Figaro and also short square- fronted Russian jackets appear upon some of the newest and smartest gowns of the season.Long enveloping redingotes and cloaks make up opposite extremes, while short and medium capes, Jjacket-bodicea and coats contest for favor in thes world of fashion.Directoire or Medici 'collars complete one and all of t garments, little or large, and passementeries, fur edzings, braidings or embroidery compose the various de- corat ions.Among the fashionable dress accesso~ ries of the season thershort jackets with only a deep pointed cape take a noticeable place.They are smart-looking and at the same time very useful\u2014serving to freshen and bri ton a partly worn toilet, and to provide additional warmth as the cold weatber advances.Most of these alceveless' Doors

either good, bad or indifferent.As a matter of fact, the association held a meeting and decided to-take no action in the way suggested.He wished to make this explanation because he understood that this deputation claimed to represent the Retail Grocers' Associa- \u201cNr.de Repentigny retorted that the deputation made no such claim.They came simply as ratepayers and as in every.way independent of the Retail Grocers\u2019 Association, though many of them were members of that organization.Mr.Tanctot presented a resolution of the Chainbre de Commerce, expressing the adhesion of that body to the principle of freedom of trade and declining to use ite influence to secure the passage of the early closing by-law.Re de Repentigny explained that the -law would never have ed but for « indifference of the city merchants = the time.The petitions just presented bore the names of many more merchants than had been affixed to the titions In response to which the by- aw was passed.The speaker also remarked that the property owners, who were as much interested as the merchants were #lso aroused, and would endorse the demand now being ade.Nearly all of the wholesale merchants were opposed to early closing, as they recognized the fact that it curtailed trade.If the by-law was kept up.the speaker maintained, the value of property would decrease twenty-five per cent.before a couple of years were over.Mr.Kelly related how the by-law operated in his case.He keeps a furniture store, and the day the by-law came into force he was selling a mattress to a lady when the closing hour arrived and two licemen entered his store and ordered im to close the door.His customer explained that a stranger had unexpected- Iv arrived at her house and that she had no mattress for him te lay on, but t policemen were bound to enforce the law, and the lady.had to leave without the mattress.That was the way the bylaw operated.He had no doubt but that it had been passed with the best possi- bLle intentions, but it had been a com- \u201cpléie failure.The speaker considered the w-law a coercive measure and oppcsed to the principles of British law.Bt.Lawrence street, he declared, will he ruined if the by-law continued to be enforced.Mr.de Repentigny remarked that some retail grocers evaded the law by selling fruit.which allowed them to keep open as fruit stores.The br -law acted unfairly in another way.[n mapy parts of the city the principal business was done after eight o'clock.It was so in his own case.Ie doubted too whether the bylaw was: constitutional as many of them had licenses which gave them the right to keep their places of business open from five in the morning until twelve at night.Mr.Vallieres rose to speak again, but was refused a hearing until the Mayor , asked the deputation to hear him as a matter of ccurtesy.He asked that.the by-law he given a fairer trial.\u2014 There were then cries for Ald.Raine ville, and the Chairman \u2018of the Finance Committee briefly responded.It bad been a surprise to him, he said, to learn that She merchants were not unanim- .ously in favor of the by-law, or nearly so.He did not personally favor such legislation ms instinctively was in favor of complete freedom of trade as a political principle, and in every other way.The presence of such an influential deputation showed that the supposed un- apimity in favor of such a by-law did not exist and that was certainly an argument in favor of the suspension of the by-law.But it was a matter the Mayor or the Council could not directly deal with.It was a matter of Discretion for the Police Committee and the Chief of Police to decide.The only satisfactory rourse open to the Council was to repeal the by-law and if a great majority of the public declare for such action he had no doubt that the Council would promptly carry out the people's \u201cwishes, His Worship said that he willingly acknowledged that the errand on which the deputation came was one of vital importance.The question was one of greater importance than appeared on the surface, for there were many of its important phases which had nd been brought out.including the discriminating nature of the by-law.He gladly promised to bring the ition to the notice of the Council at {ts meeting this ternoon, and wonld have no hesitation in advising that all further action be suspetided until the judgment of the court on.the casea now ing is given.The great questichs of the discriminating and constitutional obaracter of the by-law should be settled by the highest courts in tbe land.Every one was INSOLVENT NOTICE In re GEORGE HUNT, the St.\u201cLawrence Machinery Supply Company.\u201cThe sasots of -this Estate, as named below, will be sold by Public Auctiorr on MONDAY,

Leading Man.Paris, October 26.\u2014 M.Challemel-La- cour, recently president of the French Senate and once Ambassador of France in London, and Minister for Foreign Affairs, is dead.He had been ailing for a long time, but no fears were en- ,tertained regarding his condition.until last week, when he became alarmingly worse.» M.Challemel-Lacour, when M.Faure was chosen, was a possibility for the Presidency of France.He was chosen President of the Senate in succession to Jules Ferry, and about the same time he was elected a member of the French THE LATE CHALLEMEL LECOUR.Academy in the room of Renan.He has edited tbe works of Mme.D'Epinay, and has dabbled in philosophy; bus it is in journalism that his pen has made a reputation.He helped Gambetta to found the Republique \u2018Francais in 1871, and was the first editor of that redoubtable shéet: In 1880-hbe went to Perne as ambassador Lo the Swiss Confederation, and in the same year was appointed to the French Embassy in London.An incident in his career was the su Jeet of a violent debate in the House of Commons, initiated by that lively free-lance, Mr.Frank O'Donnell.In 1882 M.Challemel-Lacour hecame Foreign Minister in M.Ferry's Cabinet, and shared the.unpopularity of that statesman\u2019s adventure in Tonquin.Since then M.Challemel-Lacour's career, once of a foremost character, has been comparatively uneventful.Deceased was avery rich man.- BISMARCK\u2019'S REVELATION.His Paper Tells of Russo-German Alllance that Ended in 1890.Hamburg, October 26.\u2014The Hamburger Nachrichten, (Prince Bismarck's organ), prints an article disclosing the fact that a defensive \u2018alliance existed between Russia and Germany during the last six years that Bismarck was in office, ending in March, 1890.The article has produced a profound sensation in Vienna.Paris, October 26.\u2014The Temps, in an article, commenting upon Prince Bismarck\u2019s Communication, says it is an obvious truth that Prince Bismarck, without the knowledge of his partners in the Dreibund had a separate entente with Russia from 1884 to 1890, not only detaching Russia from.France in the event of the latter attacking Germany, but also detaching rmany from Austria in tbe event of Austria making an attac upon Russia.\u201cBismarck;'\u2019 the Temps adds, \u2018\u201calways played a double game, and the revelations of the Nach- richten must weaken the Dreibund.\u2019* ON THURSDAY NEXT, That is Premier Greenway's Date for School Settlement.(Special to the Star.)

when this is done, they Pin find, as opportunities for promotion or advancement, occur, they will receive every oonsideration from the management.\u201d SIR DONALD AT GLENCOE.Sir Donald Smith and Lady Smith, who are still in Scotland, where they have heen entertaining largely at Glencoe, during the autumn, were present at the recent opening of the bazaar in aid of the fund t new Queen Street Free Church, at the Market Hall, Inverness.The foundation stone of the church was laid by Lady Tweedmouth, sister-in-law, of Lady Aberdeen.The opening of the bazaar on the first day was performed by Sir Nonald Currie, who was accompanied by Lady Currie, Sir Donald and Lady Smith of Glencoe, as they are invariably styled in Scotland, and Sir George and Lady Baden-Powell.On the second day the opening ceremony was performed by Sir Donald Smith.Lady Smith, who was much interested in tbe bazaar, presided over one of the stalls, in company with Julia, Marchioness of Tweedale, wife of the late Sir John Rose, As the season advances Sir Donald and Tady Smith will shortly take their dezearture for London.Sir Donald is enjoying excellent health, Lady Smith's health has also improved during her visit to the Highlands.THE ART OF HOME-MAKING.At yesterday's meeting of the Pleasant Sunday Afternoon Sociely, at lra- ternity Hall, Point St.Charles, Mrs.David Sinclair read a paper on Domestic Science, or the Art of Home-making.She urged that every woman should be familiar with the principled of housekeeping.She expressed syrong disapproval of the practice of employing women in factories, The Hon.James Baker, Minister of Education for British Columbia, dealt briefly with the subject of education in Canada, and showed the progress which had been made here, Bs well aa elsewhere, in educational methods, Mr.Ernest Fairmaa sang some sacred solos during the afternoon.Mr.Wm.Darlington presided.On Saturday evening Mr.K.T.Taka- hashi gave an exhibition of his beautiful stereopticon views of Japan.REV.MR.RENAUD HONORED.very pleasant time was\u2019apent on Fis night with the \u2018members of the st omas\u2019 Branch of the Woman's Auxiliary, when the rect the Rev.J F.Renaud, was he red ient of a very handsome whiting desk of solid oak, with sycamore table, and an address from t members of the society and congregation on his hdving \u201cst tained the fift jet of .rectorship of St.Thomas Church.During the evening several addresses were delivered on missionary work, one.from Prof.Carus Wilson and another from Mr.Alfred Buckland, who has just returned from Fort Churchill, diocese sof Moosonee, where he has Leen a missionary for /the last , months.+ WORKINGMEN'S BANQUET.Dominion Assembly Knights of Labor held their regular meeting last Friday evening.There was a large.attendance owing to a special call having been is- rued to mako the nrce siry arrangements for the bolding of their ih annual banquet on January 12th riext.Considerable ussion took place as to the best means of waking it \u2018successful and to ecli any o of the former ones held by that body.A good working voummit- tee was appointed and it is their intention to extend invitations to Geners!

been inaugurated against the Blackstone Cigar Fac- tury, of which Messrs.Villeneuve & Company are the proprietors., Trouble has been brewing for some mouths between Nhe propristors and Cigarmakers\u2019 Union, No.£8,and its consequence was the issuing of a circular by the Union calling upon cigar-smokers to avoid the productions of the Villeneuve factory.The proprietors in their turn then discharged the Union hands, which up to this time had been retained in their employ.Again the Union retaliated by estublishing + strike.Twelve men who are membe of the Union are out, while the remaining hands number forty- -four.These men have either forsaken the Union for the firm, or were not members of the labor organization, and at present ail these are at work as usual.The trouble originally arose over a reduction in the rates paid the workmen.Villeneuve totd them in July that he would, owing to competition with Ontario firms, where wages were lower than here, be compelled to make a_ reduction in the ratel per thousand cigars which he was then paying, and ich, be claimed, was in excess of that paid by other firms for the same classes of work.N.Paquette, the president of Cigarmakers\u2019 Union No.58, held a conference with Mr.E.W.Ville neuve, and proposed that if the firm would make a reduction of $1 per thousand instead of 82, as proposed, he would guarantee that there would be no strike.This matter Mr.Paquette laid before the union, and it was rejected.As a result, the president of the \u2018union resigned, and is at present an employee of the Blackstone cigar factory.Villeneuve states that he will employ no more union men, and the union In turn carries on their side of the Merry war._\u2014 IMPROVEMENT IN FUTURE.pr The \u201cRaliway News\" wa\" Thinks that the GQ.T.R.System Has Passed the Crisis.The Railwayd News, the representative organ of the railway men in England, has the following ediforial comment with regard to the recent semi-annual meeting of the Grand Trunk Railway: \u201cAll the animadversions to which the Board were subjeot were based un charges made against the management of the railway by a servant lately in the employ of the company.whose grie- | vance it appears was that his merits had failed to procure promotion at the hands of Mr.Hays, the general manager.An old car, which for a quarter of à century had done much service on many previous official visits of inspection over the railway, hal n replaced by cne of more modern type and \u201cup-to-date,\u201d and provided with fitting accommodation for the long distances on the line.Upon this flimsy pretext of grievance proprietors of an undertaking covering nearly 4000 miles of railway were asked to support an amendmept-hostile to the poliey and recommendations of the board.Of far greater import to the proprietors of the company than mere trifling over petty details of management, were the well weighed and carefully considered opinions expressed by the president as to the position and prospects of the undertaking.The difficulties with which the company have had to contend have been of a most serious character, but there are good and substantial reasons for considering that the crisis in its history Buccess- fully overcome, and that thero are indications of an improvement in the near tuture.\u2019\u201d CITY ITEMS, The roadway
