It is contended that the statement recent- ly made by Secretary Gage tbat something would be done by the present Congress for the improve- ment of our finances was not an idle suggestion, but one which embodied the views of the Admivistration and the leading republicans of Congress. It is stated, however, that all the President desires from the present session of Congress is the authority to appoint a currency commission, whos members shall be directed to report at the regular session in De- camb2r a feasible plan of placing the national finances on a sound, sab- etantial and enduring basis.

Doluth, Mian , June 2.—A mirage showing two large bodies of armed men engaged in active hostilities, has been seen in the sky east of this eity by several different persons. Patrolman Kashmer tells the follow- ing story: “About 4 o'clock Monday morn- ing my attention was attracted by a brilliant illumination in the sky. I thought it was the sun rising. Sud- denly what sesmed to be a large body of men marched into the illum- inated space and stopped. Another body of men appeared from the op- posita direction, and at the time I could easily ace that both bodies were armed with small arms aod ar- tillery. The two detachments drew up in line of battle and opened fire on each other. It seemed as if it was only ahalf mile away, every- thing was so plain.” — CASTORIA. oe {acs iL AE iden Tax on Beer Will be Knocked Oat of the Tariff Bul. Washington, D.

C., May 31.—See | retary Gage has returned to the city jfrom Cincinnati, where he was @ | guest at the banquet given laet Fr- iday by the commercial club of tke j city to the visiting clubs from Chi- j cago. Bostoa and St. Louis. Mr. | Gage said to-day that a feeling of jimpatience seemed to ba general jamong the people at the delay ix jthe passage of a tariff bill. The business of the country was ina condition approaching stagnation, and although the public realizes that the greatest care is necessary in the construction of a bill of such vast importance, the people wera begins Biog to complain of the time being consumed. What they most wanted was the prompt passage of a tariff bill that would produce sufficient revenues, and with that question out of the way the government could take up the question of reform iz the currency. The business men in attendance at the Cincinvati meeting, Mr. Gage thought, were agreed that a cur- rency commission should be author ized and appointed at once, witha view to the reformation plan, which could be presented to congress om its reassembling in December. Dur- ing the recess of congress it was thought that hearings could and should be given to financiers and othera who might desire to be heard from all parts of the country. I¢ is a great question, he added, and should have the fulleat discussion. Ifthe commission should fail te agree upon a satisfactory plan, the administration very likely would have a proposition to present to con- gress. In any event, the people with whom the eecretary conferred agreed that some setion should be taken at once. The business of the country impatiently demand it, be coccluded. A Word to Physicians.

June 3.—Thereis as spirit of unrest among the work- ingmen of Western Pennsylvania. About 1,500 employes of the Jones & Laughlio mill have struck against a cut in wages. The men say thet. the company promised them higher wages prior (o the election of last November and has not lived up to the agreement. Six hundred men are idle at Galat- zin, near Altoona, having steuck against a 5 per cent reduction a ton by the Mitchell Coal & Coke Com- pany, and the Taylor & McCoy Com pany. At Reading « similar condition of affairs prevails. One thousand men: employed by the Reading Iron Com- pany went out rather than accept ¢ second reduction in wages. A genera! strike of the employes of the coal and iron companies is probable asa result of the down- ward tendency of the wage scale. 1s) Sprecktes—Hearst.
