piuio o uuicMl olIhE, LJudge Payson's Claim for the ex-
Commissioner.
MR. CHURCH'S ARGUMENT.
The patent on5s invedsgation was resumedthis morning a 1 o'clock, and immediatelydeveloped into an interesting condition, whiftquickly assamed a sensational aspect.One of the semational features of the day
was the Charge aade against ex-CommiselomerSimond by Mr. Church of having committedgrand laresay under the laws of the District ofCoiembia, and having broken a number ofstatutes of the United states, whick providefor punishment by Ans and imprisonment inthe peniteathy.The:nt= was the iling of an important
pPaye. counsel for es-Com-= = oud. It was addreesed to Com-
mimen. Seymour and was as follows:Tan qUUstrox or JURISDIOTION.
"So long as the charges that there was a eon-nivanes or collusion between ei-Commn-=o-eSimands and Foster & Freeman toimproperlyecure copies of or permit inspeetionof pending applications by non-odeialpersons, either Foster or Freeman ofsopyists not in government service,remined an open question before you I ex-
waived the question of your jurmto examine seek charges as to Mr.
Simonds as to aos done by him whilecomeieloner,because while I felt then, as I donow, that you had no jurisdistion, yetgo long as the alleged improper as-tion was ebarged to be in connivance withattorneys practicing before your bureau I1might be that a deais of year jurisdli-tiom wouldbem=ringa tec=nial defestoavoida hearing on the ieenof seamac d. I waived en the charge beind
TOM ATTnnn UAS CEAXSeD."Bgmes then the attitude has wholly changed.
The chargea Mr. Feser s been formalbya-ando-da-ndidised. Afterthepreof bythproesnnm is an in you have an-nounsed that ye see nothing nibmg Mr. Freeman. This disposespersousoutside the departament e "ept es-om=;- Smends, leaving him and his aeldone while commissioner for codlderatsunder this complaint.
"You are to be asked to diMar himbecame of aets so done. to it in reviewof and judgment upon aset done byhim while commissioner and adjudicate. witha view to the most serious punishment, whebersuch acts entirely diseo--ected with non-ometal persons come within the statute allow-ing you to disbar am attorney for gross mi-conduet."In this ehanged states of the record, I cairn
the question and preserve is in this re-ord: What juriedistion have Ye tohear and determine any PPulmisingout of the charges inths am thex - com=i..ion.r ..eout of aet awa omamsaoner.nd a. s doiof whish sti he assumed the rightto do what he did. or acquiesced In what joknew was done by subordinate, because he*ancommissioner or vatents and assumed mchright because of the adatal positice?
AN aMesnTtom Or So JUISDCorTON."I assert that you have no such jurisdietion,
and Foster & Freeman being out of thecase there is a manifest injustice,to put it mildly, in consideringthis petition further as against Mr. himonds,when it already appears that what he did wasin absolute good faith, to the detrimeniof no one; in the belief that he had tnright to do it; that it was openly done on ropated ordera to subordinates, and with the ap-proval of the Secretary of the Interior."I nake the point of want of jurisdiction
knowing, as I think I know, that on the meritsof the inquiry there is not a shadow oljust eriticism against Mr. Simondsbut I regard it as les than my duty if I shouldeoneedeymp lon the right of any publicofeer to adjudie with a view to punishmeanthe propriety of the offietal asth of his prede.Fees', at the instance of an outsider on a rulto show cause, in a proceeding stan as thidoes. now, 040y against such predor,
"If am ght in this and the question ofturidictio when made must be rst decidedno arguments on the question of fet are neceemay."
Mn. cuwncn a51se AnomxurT.It was agreed that the point raised by Judge
Paysom need not be argued at ones and thease proceeddThe testimony having been Concluded beforn
the adjournment of the investigation severaldys aPthe argment of the ca- commencedMr. arch opened the aegument for theposaticn. He eald the charges may be dvidedinto two classes; those which relateto Mescr. Foster & Freeman, with thecollusion ,of Chief Clark Bennett, andthe chagts against Mr. Simonds. Inthin connection is the charge of illegal inspec-tion of the Drawbaugh Alesand charges of illegalcopyn of the same.
All te pies of which specific mention isamade In the charges he said are prowed to havebeen made, all except the 1884 apphecationwhich, while they have not been producedIn evian'e have been shown to have bee:copied. Two copies are now In the commtis-stoner's pomeeslon and Maj. Emory has swornthat they wmr ade by outside copyist.. Thedefendants have sworn that copies of the 1884applctinwere desired.
heehave been exhibited here, said Mr.Church, two certified copies of the "public urnproceedinga." All these copiee having beenproved to have been made, the materialquestion arises, were they properly oiimprqperly made, and if so by whom, and whoisresponsible? Mr. Church here readlatng to inspection of papers, and whicl
rule he said he would invoke. This rule re-quires that ending applications shall be keptInviolate. Thsrule was designed to preventfraud, to ?revent wrongful appropriation ofanapplicantsaInvention.
Avumonams QUorno.Mr. Church at this point quoted authorities
upholding the legality of this rule and Its ap-plication. Mr. Simonds himsef had recog.nized the wisdom of this rule in refusing theapplication of outsiders to copy thissame 1884 aplction. Mr. Church also quoteda desision ofthe Supreme Court of the [Distric'of Columbia upholding the legality of the actionof the commisoner of patents in refusingacesa to pending applications.He then asserted theta "public use proceed-
lng" In the patent offie has always been heldto bees parte, and that only the appiat andcthe oefee are concerned in a "puli use pro-ce=ding"A meI3WmTAT Tun ?3NxTED CoPT was 5TOLEN.Mr. Church here stated that It was his beliet
that the printed copy of the "public use pro....din==" recently exhibited was stolen, andgave the reason for his belief.Mr. Chureh then dwelt upon the motive foi

POST OFFICE PLUMS.
Looi Demonats Looking at Them WithLonging Etes,
at the Present Incumbents WIll ProbaBayCenttne In Office toer Sees Timme
Yet-The Pestal Patronage.
The local democratic politicians are Axinghungry and covetous eyes upon the postal pa-tronage of this city. There are quite a numberof desirable positions under the postal serviceof Washington that would not be disdained bythe faithful when the distribution of local pa-tronage is made.
It is understood, however, that the officeseskers are not receiving much encouragementfrom Postmaster General Dissell as to changesIn the immediate future. It is thought verylikely, from the present Indications, that theincumbents wdl be permitted to draw salariesfor some time to come.The city postal patronage is quite extensive.
The Juiciest plum, of course, on the tree is thedMioo of city postmaster. The functions ofthis offie are now performed by Mr. HenrySherwood, whose term does not expire untilSeptember, 1894, and there is good eose tobelieve that he will not be disturbed beforethat expiration. Mr. Sherwood has asde anexceptionally good postmaster. He broght tohis ofce the advantage of long experience inthe postal service and a thorough acquaaitancewith local matters gained by his tenure of theoffice of assistant postmaster undr Mr. FrankConger and also under Commiesiomer Bosswhen he was postmaster.
In addition to the several minor positions ofdesirability in the city poet offiee proper thereare four superintendents of branch offieos atgood salaries, averaging about 01,600 per year.These ofices are the F street station, presidedover by Scott Towers, a man with long experi-once in the business: the East Capitol streetstation, where Fred. Grant holds forth to thesatisfaction of residents of the Hill; the south-west station, on 4% street, under the capablemanagement of A. C. Irvine, and the George-town station.The Georgetown office, however, has lonk
been under the charge of Mrs. Blackford,through both republican and demoeratie ad-ministrations, and it is not thought that anychange will be made there. An applicant forthis offiee would, it is said, experience diflleultyin convincing the department that he is theebuae of the people for the place. for there is aprovalling idea in Georgetown that Mrs. slack-ford is th proper person for the position shenow occupies.There are also fourteen substations through-
out the it y located in drug store&, thatpay from%ito iNS per year. A change inthe administration of the main oie might re-suit In the shifting of a few of these. In addi-tion there are twenty-seven stamp oesspayingON4 per year, located in convenient plaeos, forthe sale of stamps.
It is understood at the Post Office epart-ment that there is not likely to be any materialincrease of force for the city post office thisfall, as the department thinks that Mr. Sher-wood is pretty well provided for in the way ofclerical foroe and carriers already. The eon-vening of Congress will, of course, make thingslivelier around the office during the summer.but it is thought that the present force will beable to handle the business.
EX-9PEAKER CRISP.

o'clock for his home in Atlanta, Ga. Hereached the city from New York, where hewent to participate in the Tammany esleba,tion af the. Fourth, last evening and soeat tbWnight at the Metropolitan Hotel. He was seen

Mr. Crisp had very few callers last raht ortoday, as there are only a smail number of Con-gressmen in the city.
TESTS AT INDIAN HEAD.These Ma of Arnaer-Piereing Shels Yes-
terday Were Snesesftal.It is said at the Navy Department that the
test of the twelve-inch armor-plereing abells atIndian Head yesterday was very successful. Theplate Ared at was twelve-inch imported Crusoesteel plate The Brat shell was fired at a ve-
locity of 1,300 feet per second,and wee intendedto go just through the plate. It went aboutsixteen inches into the backing, reboundingforty feet, and was found to be only slightlyupset in body. The second shell was fred at a
velocity of 1,825 feet per second, the increasebeing intended to penetrate the plate and back-Ing. This shell went through both and fell sinefeet in the rear, and was in the same conditionas the first. Commodore flampson said thatboth shells were of excellent quality, He wasat first somewhat doubtful about their being.asuccess, as they were the first of that kindtested, but they had proved so satisflactorythat he believed they could have been reloadedin the gun and fired again, as the Increase ofthe body of the shells was only about four-hundredths of an Inch. Their points, whichwere about as sharp as a needle, had not beenperceptibly dulled.On Tuceday next the remainin three shells
will be fired at the seventeen-inc armor plate.
The Submarine Torpedo Hoat Proposals.The naval board appointed to consider pro-
posals recently submitted for the constructionof a submarine torpedo boat has finished itswork. The report Is In the hands of Com-modore Sampson, president of the board, andwill be submitted to thc Secretary of the Navyas soon as he returns to Washington. It isunderstood that the board found only two ofthe plans submitted by the bidders to be at alipracticable and that the adoption of one ofthese will be recommended. The Baker andHolland types of boats are said to be the twofavorably considered, but which of the two isrecommended by the board will not be madeknown until the report is received by theSecretary. Congress appropriated 6200,000 forthe construction of a submarine boat and six-perimenta with It. The bids df the Hollandand Baker companies were each about 0185,-*000.
The Postmaster General's Vacato.Postmaster General Bissell returned to the
city this morning. During the remaining daysof this week he will attend to the disposal ofsuch official business as requires his immedateattention, and on Saturday,saccompanied by themembers of his family, he will return to GlenSummit, Pa., where he will spend his vacation.returning to Washington about the lst ofAugust.

SOME SILVER TALK.Gen. Warner Spesk of the Oondi-

TVLUE OF IDIEY ETL IPUlOM
The Law of 1890 and How -it isExecuted.
THE COMING CONVENTION.
"What of the night?" soid a STAR reporterthis morning to Gen. A. y. Warner, prmeidentof the American Bimetallic Leegue.Ge. Warner said: "I oe that the legislative
council of India has doid ed to receive eovereigns at the treasury of India without limitin exchange for rupees, but not Bank of Eng-lead notes, nor will they pay out gold forrupees. The council has also carefully ab-stain" from making gold a legal tender.If they should do so Europe would rapidlybe drained of its gold to settle belauces due teIndia. The policy, therefore. is simply to sellcouncil bills. which are draughts on the Indiantreasury. for rupees, for gold and then to buysilver on government account -at the ratiedied in council, and from this silver oolirupees with which to meet any excess ofdraughts over the tax oollections of the Indiaxtreasury."
"Will not silver be purchased after the man -
ner of our Bland act, in quantities sufficient torestore the ratio recently destroyed?" asked threporter." e may look for purchases of silver on ao
count of the Indian government at any timeIn fact, that government has adopted a sort ofa Bland law excepting that, it has fixed the ratkat 21% for converting rupees into silver."
"Well, then, will not a shut down of themines reetablish a normal rae.?" said TaxSVAn man.
"If the mines of the wea" remain elaed forany length of time silver will rse as the resullof ase by our governmentand em eseonal
TES TALUS OF MONET ETA3?."Partisans of gold claim that the vale of
money metal result. from Its o-a-odw domand and is not regulated by the oanege de-mand, that It is the commodity value of metawhich makes it desirable as money meal" emtinned tereporter."tlp ly has everything to do with value. 11is supposed that there is something like fouthousand millions of gold in the world. Thiwould be forty years' supply for the arts. Whatvalue would forty years' supply of anythinahave to If It were not for no exceive andnever en demand for gold for money? 1tvalue wo largely disappear. It is thedemand of everybody for money that gives i4its value. Therefore, nine-tenths of the valuoof money metal comes from its money demandThis is perfectly understood by gold monometalliets, and hence when the sold diseoveriesof CalIfornia and Australia added three thoesand millions of gold in twenty fears, mongthan doubling the entire stock, the case cleithat now wants to demonetime salver wanted Isdemonetize gold."In answer te a question fromteo thi
general said: 'There are twomap to alto deerease the value ofme2e neoe. Outiay, and tht is the oldw 4 h naWIf- 1ere be an honet war,- is to ineresor decrease the weight of oolus. The otheiway is to suddenly increase or decrease thquantity of metal out of which the coins eabe made. One way is just as effective as theother. The modern way has been the covermethod of diminishing the quantity of metafor coinage."TES KTGTOWE PRINCIPLE OF SnEza."What is the keystone principle of bimetal,
lism?' asked the reporter."The principle of the automatio regulation ol
money. For thirty-ve centuries the volumaof money has been regulated by the output athe gold and silver mines, the theory beinithat If the production of the mines becomes aabundant as to materially affect the stock omoney so that prioes would rise and monesbecome relatively depreciated until idollar oould be procured by producing oommodities seaier than by gold an,silver les would be mi In way thadjustment of the metals to population amwealth would go on go tually.""Then would not g moometellism, with
out the discovery of new mines, soon mesa Asmoney?" persisted the reporter."The abandonment of the principle of ante
mate regulation does mean an economic revoltion more importan$ than the world has evewitnessed. With gold alone automatic adjustwent of gold to population and oommodities iimpossible. for the reason that a sufeiemey cgol does not exist. Gold monometallists himbetter take warning, for if the automatic primiple be overthrown, the next thing in ordewill bebat money with legislative regulation.'
"Will tho silver convention which is to me*at Chicagobn August 1 advise the introductioiin Congress of a bill for the demonetization agold? Ithere a serious consideration of thihor is a bilof this lund to be Introduced only aa filibustering measure?" asked the reporter.
TO DEKONET!ZE GOLD."I know nothing of a purpose to introduc
such a bill. If the gold monometallist. imaison a subversion of bimetallim by demonetiithe only metal which can be produced In nifficient quantities to maintain stable relationbetween money, supply, population and busiues, and If they persist in their evident lute.tion to destroy the automateo regulation omoney through the mines, they need not b<surprised at a spontaneous movement tidemonetize the other metal and transfer thcontrol of money froma the minse to legislationGold is not produced in large enough quantities to make It responsive toineroase in popultion and wealth. It does not exist, and, terefore, relatively to population and wealth imust grow scarcer and dearer. Moreoverthe time is near at hand, If not alread:upon us, when the entire output ogold will be consumed for Industrial uses. Athe preeent ratio of the consumption of golbfor the arts alone we will very soon use up tthis way the entire product of the Unite.States.
