Mr. CrlHD IU'leve Thai the Tnrltr and I'r. e Culnaice of Hllver Cau loth be nude iHHUeH In the Caul l.iK I'rt-Hirit-utlal I'lithl Wltlioul Injur One lo the Other. It is a fact well known that there is a difference of opinion among democratic politicians as to the issues upon which the party should o before the country in the presidential liht of next year. Some claim that the paramount issue should be tariff reform, and that the (piesiion of the free coinage of silver shoul.. not be made prominent. Others claim that the silver issue should lie brought prominently to the front, and jjiven a place in the platform e(iiul to it not in advance ol lower tariff rates. In the contest over the speakership, it soun became manifest that these factions were represented, the first by Mr. Mills, the latter by Mr. Crisp. Since the nomination uf Mr. Crisp,! there has been much speculation in journ alistic circles, as to jttst what his success iliil mean. The extreme low tariff portion of the picss, headed perhaps by the New York Times, has gone so far as to assert that not only would tariff relorin lie releguted to the rear, but that the election of Mr. Crisp meant the triumph of certain poli ticians who have determined to revive as u democratic doctrine what is known us the "Kaudall idea" on the tariff ques tion. With a view to ascertainii ir from an authoritative source just what Speaker Cusp's policy will be with reference to these issues, I in; CrriZKN addressed a letter to Hon. W. T. Crawford asking las opinion on the mallei, and below is given his response: "As to the opinion that Crisp will un dertake to inaugurate the old Kandall policy in respect to the tariff, it is sheer nonsense and only a little patience is needed to demonstrate it. The idea grows out ol Hie lact that Crisp believes that the people have a right to be heard tu the making of issues in congress as well as out ol it. He therefore gave as surance to his friends, belorc his iiomina lion, that the expressed will ol a majority of the people's representatives should lie ieeieeled,and that the silvcri.ssuc should not he throttled bv packing the commit tee with the enemies of Irrc coinage, thus giving each member the opportunity to speak for his constituents us to what the issues should be, instead ol assuming the right, with his coterie, to lorimilate issues. "Crisp is as true a tarilf reformer . s .uiiis or Carlisle; me only lillereucc is they say that congress should not inter fere with the silver this session, and make the tariff the paramount and only issue in 1SU2, while Crisp believes that both may lie made issues, if a majority of the gieople so desire, without complication or injury one to the oilier. "1 shall lie very much disappointed and surprised if a free coiuuge bill tails to pass the house this session. If it does pass the issue is made, unci the national convention will lie compelled to incorpor ate it as a plank in the platform, or igno ininiously ret rent, nud tluit would mean defeat."

The following is the text of the correspondence bet ween Speaker Crisp and Representative Mills in regard lo the hitler's committee ser vice: Washington, Dec. 18, lliUl. To lion. K. y.

Crisp, Sieaker of the House of Kepresentatives: My Dfa Sik: 1 huve received yojr let tcr of the 18th inst. asking me "il it would be agreeable or acceptable" to me 10 be appointed second on the committee ou ways and means and in adtlition to such assignment to be appointed chair man of the committee on commerce or chairman of the commitleeon postotlices and post roads, chairman of some com mittee whose work is less laborious than commerce or postolhccs. Having been a member of the commit tee on ways and means lor ten years and chairman in the 1'ftieth congress, the reasons which have in your judgment rendered my appointment us chairman unwise would disqualify me for service in any other place on that committee, und it would not be sincere to saythut it would lie agreeable to accept your tender. 1 leave to you without any sug gestion from me to make such other as signment as you in the discharge of your otheial duty may determine.

A View or II from the Top ol Hiullli Mountain, Looking this morning from Town mountain across the valley of the French Broad in the direction ot I'isguh, it al most seemed that during the night there had been some tremendous convulsion of nature. A vast sea seemed spread out from half way up Town mountain to the precipi tous sides of I'isguh. Bold promontories stood out in this soft seu, and the coast lints ol beautiful bayi wound gracefully to the right und left, in the center of this sea-cloud were the low-lying turrets and roof-shaped decks of a warlike mon itor, with the black smoke streaming to leeward from its funnels. Off to the left was an island with perhaps a dozen trees. Later, as the sun drove away one of the thickest fogs Asheville was ever visit ed bv, the sea was a sen no longer the island became Town mountain und the wurlike monitor stood revealed as the lieacelul (lattery I'urk hotel. London, Dec. 21. A fog of such density hung over the river Thame this morn ing that all navigation was suspended.

Washington, Dec. 21. Senator I'liimb, died Sunday. Today the I'nited States, house of representatives, the executive anil judicial departments ol the govern ment, representatives of foreign powers and his many friends paid the last tribute ol affection and iesieet to his memory. liarly this morning the body was placed in a casket, on the lid of which was a plain silver plate bearing the tol lowing inscription: Preston II. I'lniuli; born Octo'ier 12, l.s;t7; died December 20, 1801 " During the night the only watchers at the residence of the deceased on 14-th street were several of the messengers from the cnpitol and his private secre tary. This morning there were a few Cillers at the house, mostlv senate em. , t i , . 1 ploves, who greatly admired Senator rliiiub in htc for his many charitable ef forts in their behalf. At ten o'clock the c-.iskct was borne from the house to the hearse, and im mediately a small funeral cortege, consist ing of the hearse, a carriage in which rode Mr. .lcrritt and Mr. IMumb's pri vate secretary, and a few admirers of the late senator, started towards the capital, where the casket was carried to a marble room in the i i .11 . ri-arol the senate cIuhiiIht anil onlv a lew leet iroin ttie vue president s eliair. 111 view 01 me condition ol the body it was deemed best not to expose the re mains to view. When the senate met at noon Mr. I'eflcr rose to make the tormn! announce ment of Mr. IMumb's death and to otler the usual resolutions. He said: I "Mr. I'resiilent 1 esteem myself pccti-1 liarly unlortune in that before I have i been a memlier of the body longenough 1 to have become familiar with even the j dimensions ol the chamber in which we sit, 1 am called upon to announce : 1 he death ol mv 1 list mm sliF,l ..,,11..,.,,,... ,, whose w'on.l. r inl m,,iln,. 1 1 cxH'cted largely to rely. Preston II. I'lumb, senator from Kansas, died in 1 his city yesterday 111 minutes lielore 0 o clock. 1 Ins is not the tune nor the oc casion to Sieak at length of the public services of tht absent si nator. The dark drnpary about the seat he basso long oc cupied forcibly reminds his tellow-inem-Ihts that they have lost one of their most active anil industrious workers. His CX-I perience, Ins practical way of doing ! things, his sagacity, and hisgreat power ol endurance, Ins constancy anil faithful ness of duly, and his alertness in action, made him a conspicious figure among the strong men of the nation. "Hut there are others who feel this bereuveinent more keenly than wc, upon whom tht blow has fallen with crushing weight. There is a home where this man was known, but the world knew him not; a place where hearts are lacerated and bleiding, where a loving fnmilv will be glad, even in their grief, to receive at our hands what is left of the fond hus band and lather, in whose lilct'icirs were closely hound; to them there are at least two sources of consolation: one that he lell while on duty, the other that there is a fountain ot strength in the power from which wc all may druw in time of need. "At the prtqier time I will ask the sen ate to pay a tribute to our deceased brother in an appropriate manner." The usual motions were then proposed and adopted. The senate then took u recess till 1 p. m. 'I EACH UK'S WIH: tCMsFKH. The Deserted Preacher Attempt (suicide. Winston, N. C, Dec. 19.-A sensation comes from Guilford county.

Mr. tSiiicau Cables Thai the Police Are There, but whether to Aid the Mob or the MiulHter Ih Not dialed. Washington, Dec. 19. The New York World correspondent secured lale to night the translation of an important cipher despatch received at the state de partment from Minister Eagan Friday night. The translation of the despatch follows: "The American Legation is surrounded by the police and a mob on account of the refugees here. Threats are being made of burning or blowing up the lega tion to getthem.A United States ship is in port, but many miles from the legation. The refugees cannot fly, but must stay in the legation, which is heseiged." This cablegram has created consterna tion in the navy department, which was furnished with a copy by the secretary ol state early this morning. Another copy was taken to the white house and sub mitted to the president. A cablegram lo Minister Ivagan has been prepared instructing him to report at once upon the attitude of the local authorities and as to the part which the police are playing in the affair. It is believed at the navy department that the demonstrations referred to by the Chilian government. At no stage of the proceeding has there been so great a probability as now thai forcible action will be taken by this gov ernment. The immcdintcefTcctof Minister ligan's cablegram will probably be to cause Sec retary Blaine to demand a prompt ver dict from the Valparaiso court charged with the investigation of the assault upon the sailors ol the Baltimore. In the event thai the reply ol the Chil ian government is unsatisfactory the whole matter will undoiibledlv be laid bclore congress for such uclion as may be deemed advisable. lathe meantime the navy department will take the necessary steps to mass the largest possible iitivallorct in the harbor ol alparaiso. Should Minister Ii.igan report anv further hostile demonstration on the part of the inhabitants of Santiago the president will probably serve an ultiimr turn upon the Chilian government, and the navy department will prepare with all speed lo uack it up.

Added to the other crimes which have almost daily accumulated against Ed ward M. Field is an indictment for for gery. Not once alone was forgery com mitted, the New York district attorney says, but dozens ot cases have been dis covered. Prof. K, M. Knmsny, a few years ago principal of an East Tcnn. seminary near Sweetwater, Tenn., committed suicide at Chattanooga, Tenn., by jumping from the middle span ot the county bridge into the Tennessee river. Despondency was the cause of the act. Dr. Thomas A. Gordon, one of the leading and wealthiest physicians of St. Louis, shot and fatally wounded J. F. Stegge, a large wholesale and retail fish dealer of that city, on Thursday night. Stegge's physicians say his wound is fatal. Dr. Gordon was arrested. Foy Lee, a native of Banton, China, and Miss Martha A. Comstock, ol Chnr Irstown, were married Monday evening in Chelsea, a suburb of Boston. The bridegroom is an educated Chinaman, about thirty-lour years old, a graduate of Mr. Moody's training school at North field. Don M. Dickinson, the well known Michigan democratic leader, who has been visiting ex-President Cleucland at Lnkewaod, N, J., denies most emphati cally the stories of Mrs. Cleveland's poor health. On the contrary, he says she has every uppearance of being in good health. A lighted match thrown carelessly among some waste paper in the whole sale millinery establishment of Poitcr, Donaldson & Co., Pittsburg, Pa., start ed a fire which destroyed the building, causing a loss of $150,000. The acade my of music and Seventh Avenue hotel were threatened.
