New York, June 6.—The Evening Sun says: For several days past there has been an ani- mated trading in silver bullion certificateson the stock exchange. The price, however, has ruled steadily around 98 cents per ounce and has seemed in, Wall street parlance, to have been “pegged” at that figure. It was rumored on Wall street this {mornin that a large French syndicate had been forme to purchase this entire stock of silver. The syndicate, it was said, was represented in this country by the banking house of Heidelbach, Ickelheimer & Co. of 29 William street. oe Cs. of of the syndicate in Eur thought to be the house of Thorsch & Vienna. It is said that Messrs. Heidelbach, Ickelheimer & Co. hold about. 3,000,000 ounces of the stock represented by the receipts of the Mercantile Trust Company, which last night were 5,436,553 onuces. As the needs of the syndicate,which proposes to purchase about 5,000,000 ounces, are not yet filled the silver will not'as yet be drawn from the Merchantile Trust Company. If this were done the shortness in the supply would be- come at once apparent and the price would ad- Vance rapidly. The plan of the syndicate scems to be about as follows: It is thought that the stock of silver held in New York represents a large part of the whole floating supply. Last year England held a large stock of silver. but it has since been sent to Japan, India and China. ‘The whole production of this country iv used up by the government in meeting its legal _re- rements for coinage and by the arts. Hence, if Europe needs any more silver,the syndicate, controlling of practically the’ larger the floating supply, will be in a ion to dictate the price at which it part with it. Moreover, as election time pproaches, it is thought that the west will renew the silver agitation and that another effort will be made iu the next Congress to put through a free coinage bill. Silver went up to 120 last yea: on the expecta- tion of free coinage, and if the bill should be- part that figure again. Athird point that the syndicate is said Baring panic in November last the Bank of England, the greatest financial institution in the world, was forced to become a borrower from the Bank of France of £3,000,000. ‘The Bank of France was able to advance this sum only on account of its ability, through its charter, to pay out silver as well us gold when its notes are presented for payment. zrie repre Jeff, Davis’ Birthday a Legal Holiday in Floris Taxtamassee, Fra., June 6.—The bill making the anniversary of the birth of Jefferson Davis a legal holiday has become a law.

The following are the opening und cl the New York Stock Market, Mire to Corsou and Mavartney |.o. Reason for Both Hope and Caution. Henry Clews & Co. in their “Weekly Financial Review,” issued today, say: “The situation sug- gests hope as well as caution. For while we have had 260,000,000 of metallic money drained off from our circulation the large special dis- bursements of the treasury last fall and the creations of new silver currency more than compensate for the lons. And, as might have been expected, this inflation of the circulation has caused money to flow to this city from the interior in liberal volume for some weeks past, whilst, judging from the continued pre- mium on New York exchange at the interior and at coast cities, there is more yet to come. Still, conceding the probabilities to be in favor of an early end of exports of gold and of continued receipts of money from other cities, the non- realization of these probabilities would pro- duce a disappointment which might seriousl affect the money market and cause a free sell ing of securities. The ‘bears’ are perhaps overdiscounting that adverse chance, and the consequent oversold condition of the stock market is the mainstay of prices at the moment. Prudent operators, however, will defer transactions on slim margins until the future drift of market influences becomes more up- parent. Inthe meantime there is no abate- ment of the splendid prospects of our crops, and all symptoms foreshadow aseason of excep- tional trafic for the railroads, vo that the i trinsic value of an important range of stocks at current prices is unquestionable. pa lass cms Washington Stock Exchange.

Oats ‘rmer We's TROUBLE WITH COMPANY C. An Unfortunate Affair for the District Na-_ tional Guard. The news in District militia circles today is centered in the third battalion, and there an internal civil war is raging to such an extent that one company is threatened with disrap- tion and the major himself finds himself standing on exceedingly slippery ground. Maj. | Harrison and Lieut. James T. Simpson of com- Pany © are the principal actors in the Grama, while occupying subordinate parts are Capt. Beck of company C and Capt. Mabany of | company B. In a grand central position | around which all the trouble revolves stands First Sergt. Nash of company C. ‘CAUSE OF THE TROUBLE, So far as can be learned the drama runs as follows: First Sergeant Nash of company C, third battalion, has been a member of the | company for three years and fh various iciweitudos and” changes of oficers, hat held his position of first sergeant, forming one of the connecting pins which held the com. Pany together. Lately by resson of sickness | and other causes Sergeant Nash has been ab- sent from general drills and otherwise has been | somewhat negligent of his duties. Lientenant James T. Simpson of the Treas- | ury Department entered company C two years | ago as @ private. At that time when the cap- | tuin of the company said “attention,” just seven men inthe ‘ranks drew. themed ves up and looked grim. Mr. Simpson took first examination for a commission and | two board examinations creditably. | was appointed first lieutenant, and ina Tze measure through his efforts the ranks of | the company have sweiled from seven to thirty | men. W. ©. Beck is captain of company C, but | lately has been on a furlough, and Lieut. Simp- on has had practical charge. WANTED NASH To RESIGN. Just before the general inspection on the 20th ultimo there was considerable talk of get- ting Sergeant Nash to rosign, as it was desired to make as good a showing as possible at the inspection. Nothing, however, was done and the inspection came off with First Sergeant Nash absent. Capt. Beek then wrote Nash asking his resigna- tion. Nash last Monday night came to the armory in order to see Capt. Beck, but find- ing Beck absent om furlough’ he oe 4 to Licut. Simpson, stating that he | joped to get a few weeks’ leave of absence, after which time he expected to pay bis com- | ny dues and attend to his duties. Licut. jimpson had been instructed to make as good an arrangement as possible with Nash, and he told him to make application for leave and he would indoree iz, ‘MAJ. HARRISON'S ACTION. According to members of the company pres- ent Nash had been gone only a shorttime when Maj. Harrison entered and in a peremptory panner ordered Lieut. Simpeon to apply fur Nash's discharge. Lieut. Simpson told’ the major of the promise he had made Nash and declined to break his promise in the matte: Some words followed and Maj. Harrison, it is wtated, said to Lieut. Simpson: “Then re- sign yourself; you are incompetent. The Heutenant is exceedingly popular in the com- ay and on the cpot eleven men applied for | discharges. The feeling in the company was | farther intensified by Lieut. Simmons, who was the officer of the day, entering the room soon after and ordering ‘the men out of the armory. Lieut. Simpson thinking he was right in the matter did not hand in his tion and was subsequently relieved from duty by Maj. Har- Tison, who also appointed Capt. Mahany of company B to investigate the matter. ‘These are the facts in the matter. talk there is plenty of it. THE MAJOR CRITICISED. Major Harrison is criticised freely by mem- bers of the company for his general line of ac- tion and his dictatorial ways in such matiers, and rumors are rife of charges un- connected with Monday's affair which will be filed shortly. jor Harrison is further criticised by ion for stating in battalion meeti Nash owed the company $30. The men claim that it was none of Harrison's business how much company dues Nash owed, although they say, as a matter of fact, his’ debt did not amount to over 87. Criticism is also showered on the major for appointing as investigator of the difiicuity only one man and a man under himeelf in the de- partment in which both work. ‘The men imak- ing this criticism unite in stating that they mex to cast no possible slur upon C. Pt MaL...yund have no doubt of his doing his duty whatever happens. tever the outcome of the affair it isa misfortune for the National Guard and is de- plored on all hands. a ADJUSTMENT OF SALARIES. As to the . Increase of First-class Post Offices for the Next Fiscal Year. The office of the first assistant postmaster general (salary and allowance division), has completed the adjustment of the salaries of first-class postmasters, to take effect, in accord- with existing law, July 1, 1891. The total number of first-class offices is 128, net increase of $41,500 for salaries as compared with July 1, 1890. The net increase of gross receipts which ac- crued at the first-class offices for the year ended March 31, 1891, is stated at $2,846,247, The increase in the receipts is as follows in the post offices of Virginia and Maryland: Lynchburg, €7,565 or 18 per cent; Norfolk, 963 or 15 per cent; Richmond, decrease, $2,730 or 2 per cent; Baltimore, Md., 4.735 or ‘Tper cent. ‘The increase in the receipts of the ofice in this city are €514218, an ingtease ‘of $103,020 or 25 per cent. glen. THE KITE IS DELAYED. Lieut. Peary’s Greenland Expedition Will Probably Sati Tomorrow. New Yorx, June 6.—The departure of the steam brigantine Kite, which was to have sailed this afternoon with Lieut.

MEKEDITH. THE ITATA’S OFFENSE ‘What the Knights of Labor Threaten Unless | Much Depends on the Place Where She Re- He ts Removed. Some time ago, it will be remembered, the Knights of Labor preferred charges against Capt. Meredith, chief of the burean of engrav- ing end printing, and the full strength of that Organization has been brought to bear on the cae to obtain his removal, Secretary Windom dismis:cd the matter as frivolous, and Sere tery Foster, before whom the charges were re- them. Then they made other chagges to the effect that the chief was purchasing inferior materials. Pending on this of the caro. by. the’ came comaitioe” the mights have become impatient and « | delegation from the national organization came down from New York the other day and were referred by Secretary Foster to Judge Crounre, who has charge of matters relating to the bureau. The judge told the knights thatas fares could be seen there was nothing in the charges and that be thought that the Treasury Depart- ment could take care of Capt. Meredith. Then the knights proceeded to bluff the assistant ~ecretary, and they told him if the republican party was not disposed to support the iibor organizations it was time for the latter to show their teeth. They lett with the threat that if Capt. Meredith is not removed the entire strength of the Kuights of Labor will be thrown against MeKiniey in the Ohio campaign. Judge Crounse plainly told them that ax far ax le knew the government was quite able to take care of itself and that threats would do no good. Secretary Foster will probably return to the city from ‘New York on Monday and it is ex- pected that by then he will be prepared to de- cide the matter. The general opinion is that he will decline to interfere with Capt. Meredith's Conduct of his office. a WASHINGION NEWS AND GossIr. Srcnetary Nonte is expected to return to the city next Wednesday.
