Xzn- Yu;:k, April 21 The Even ing Telegram-, publishes the follow ing: State Treasurer Lon V. Stephens of Missouri called on ex-President Cleveland to-day with letters of in troduction from Gov. Francis and other leading Missouri democrats. The obji ct of the visit of Mi. Stephens was to secure from '.'the ex President a inor; ihorough expression of his .views on the silver question than the latter hus so far made public. Also fur lns-rittsoir.-foi having written his silver lelur to-the reform club. Ti e t: -president received Mr. j gress ovcr 100 ; juages, 2 Chief Jus Stcphens vcrj cordially.

I 1 feel that those Iricmis were enti tled to know how 1 stood on the question, and St I Vui t'te first fa. vorableopporuudtyto give my views. : Since 1 .did so i hav2 received a l.rge mail from all otr the country, thanking rne for Jiaving. done so. My correspondents sys that the p"r. ly had a rii-ht, to know my views, and that I wo-i!d not have acted in iii o.l fa'. th if I had kept theni, a se. ere. If I" hae caused a thorough' discussion of ll.o tul-je.t'ain;'g dem ocrat, 1'iey masL admit that 1 acted wisely." "Put iicjw that the letter ha3 been written, the,. Missouri 'democrats,'' paid Mr. Stephens, "would like to : ki.ow if, in case you are elected president in 1892, and a democratic congress shouhl pass a fr.e coinage 'bill, would ou ett it, i.o matter if y u knew the great majority of your f ivoi i';l the incaMire If I shou'if lie elected president iii lb'U2," answered the ax-president, ".rtic!ia bill would rot reach me un--tii I'c'-k), as congress would not meet iMiid L)v.-ijenibe', 181)3. So that is a b. Ido we had better not attempt to cr.jss ii j .til we come to it. .What v.ou! A be bad for t lie .country at tie 1 icei.t lnigl t be i ccessary iu 1894. As iise vol. lrn'of business increases iu s i-.ecessarv lo ;ncease the curren- y. 1 ! e amount of tfhe present per "ca.-i-a .should bn increased," buc chanucs should be gradually. " ' Viu !i ihe liw was passed provid ing for the coinage ol $2,000,000 per month, 1 feared the re&ulE, for I thought it vculd pro-ej an injury to the biisin ,S3 interest- of the cou:iry for the tune at least.- Ilow&er, the law proveil a bciiefi ., for, contrar3' to my cj ir:ion. ti.e country was,. ready for the char.ge.' When the . preset law praviding for $1,500,000 per montli v.-:k3 passed I thought the iiieubure u.o rvucai, and tuai, n migui; A 1 1 11 ,' have the -effect of driving gold out of J the countrv, but in tY:is I was mis taken, auvl bo:!i those opposed as well as those in favor of free coinage believe that the piescnt law is a wise one in 5o far that the -country lias benefited by 'if." With the rapid strides the country is making, it is irnposal b'e "to "say what fiuancial legislation we may be ready for in 1891. : "In forming my views upon the subject I did not'alone co-.'isider the interetspf anyone section of the country. My only desire is to sec financial legislation enacted that will benefit therpt'cplt- in the west, as well as in the ejrsVajtd those in the nor h as well as those in the south. This great country of ours, with its diver sified interests, should not be viewed from the standpoint uf any section. I have been unable to see how free coinage could fail of being an. injury to every section of this country, be lieving. ai I do, that- it would drive gold out of circulation. As we are in a great measure dependent upon European markets upon for our pro ducts, we are obliged to take them into consideration When I have suggested a xnone ary conference of the lepsentatives of olLqr governmeDts with our own J which couid agree upon a new stand ard of value, my suggestions have been scoffed at by Europeans. I am delighted that the people are now engaged in such a thoughtful consid eration of this question, and that b' 1892 they will have decided whether not we are ready to handle all the silver of the world." Mr. Stephens gave the account of hi3 visit to the ex-president shortly afier leaving Mr. Cleveland. Mr. Stephens was a journalist for several years. lie took iro notes, but he thinks he thoroughly memorized what Mr. Cleveland said. He does not claim to have been able to repeat the conversation verbatim. Among the names of nearly. 6000 of the alumni of tire University of X. C. are to be found ihose of a Presi. dent or the U. S-, a Vice President, 2 acting ice President, 9 in the U S. Cabinet, 2 in the Confederate Cabinet, 17 U. S.

SOME AV1SE HINTS ABOUT SIIJP MASTS AS LEARNED FROM NOAHS ARK A DISSERTATION ON TELEGRAM OR TELEJORAHI POLES Mr. II. G Sraa'dboncs, superir,.; tendent of the New .York and Wil mington Steamship company, received the following letter a da-or so sinc, and acting upon the request in it, he hands it to the .Messenger and we take pleasure in publishing it ver batim : Wade, Cumberland Co. ; March, 23rd, 1891. Mr. Smallbone, Shijiing Agent, Wil mington, N. C. : " Dear Sir: As I Solicit Cuting s me Ship Mast You will ple ise In ga;e me some say from one to as man' a you can get. If you can Imrage any yoirwill pleas send Spec ifications rf the longest shortest, larsr est and least sizes wanted and the price per running ft to be delivered in Wilmington. As to the quality it ust to take the best pitch pise all liesrt. Hut now since wee have the creamating Process I Tnink that Rosemary or Short Leaf Tine Or Sweet Gum or poplar rs they all grow mutch taller and are mutch tutfer than the pitch pine they would last beter and when Creamated they would never rot. I wish to say a few words in Krguards to height of Mast. Ship Builders ust to and do yet buihJ their Ma5t two hih This p n v i n rr must have beeu in the time of Noah's building the Ark as he neither, had &hy 5Iast or Ruder to the Ark. j-But theArkcnt wither-soever it listed -tliatis.it wen whereever .the Lord directed it and .it was not broke or hurt and when the Waters wer Abated the Ark rested on Mount Ararat. This teaches a lesson not to build our Mast two high. Common sense and good reason will teach the higher the Mast the. more power the wind will-have to break or twist off or Cap. size tl;e Vesle. This Teaches us to have lower Mast and Broader Sailes. Aa this is a matter of great impor tance for the Publick Safctty of Ves Ies you will please have this Publish ed ia some good Paper and call the attention of the Superintender of the Navcy yard to tbio Matter. Sir will also pleas Ingage me all the Short leaf Pine Cross Ties I mean those that are to be creamated send specificai'ons how they are to be got and how mutch vane edge will be allowed if any and price to be de livered in Wilmington. You will allso pleas Ingage ma all the Telle grapb Poles you can get and send specifications and price to be deliver ed id Wilmington. Yoa wiU pleas send me the correct way tf Calling Tellegrapb Poles or Tellegram Pole as I hear some people calling them. I will give you my views on the mat ter by Asking and answering two questions what is ar constitutes a Tellegrapb Pole or Line i this. To construct a Tellegrapb Line is to set up Poles a certain distance apart un til I get the desired klstance then Stretch wire on them then place and connect a Baterery at each end ready for eending the Message this is what I call a Tellegrapb Poles r Line. Second What is a Tellegrapb Pole or Line What I deem a - Tellegram is after TheW such a port;on to the Line is set npe as I have allieady described. Then the Operator ;t one end of the Line Sends a Message or such as pertain to a Message to the other operato at The other end of the Line This i3 what I call a Tellegram I never Call a Pole or Poles a Telle grarr You will allso Ingage me all the Piling or Spiling you can I mean those that are tcx be creamated for the purpose of Makeing Wharfs Tus eles Etc and send spccificayious and price.
