And yet, he said, he was told that the fund was now being used to pay the ordinary expenses of the government. it was manifest that if that misuse of 1 were continued longer, and were not prompuy arrested by some wise legislation, the hopes of ali who believed in sound money would fail. The fund, which was now re- duced to $83,000,000, would have to be re- stored and kept intact. It would be abso- necessary to supplement it with lately gold. ‘The Reserve Fand. “How?” Mr. Teller asked. “By the sale of bonds, I say,” was Mr. Sherman's reply. “To be sold where?" asked Mr. Cockrell. “To be sold to all our people,” responded Mr. Sherman. “i will wager everything in the world that within five days after the offer of a popular loan, at three per cent, running only three years, the people of this country, the men who have doubts about the safety of banks, wil! seize upon these small bonds and pay coin for them just as eagerly as the French people did when their country was invaded.” ‘ “Suppose that the use of this reserve gold,” said Mr. Vest, “has become neces- sary to maintain the parity between gold und silver. Would not the Secretary of the Treasury have the right to use it? “This reserve fund,” said Mr. Sherman, “was set aside in pursuance of the re- demption act in 187% and no subsequent law has changed that act.” i “I agree with the Senator from Ohio,’ waid Mr. Vest, “that under the act of 1875 | of this reserve was specifi- 5 = By ar out and I do not believe that the clause in the act of 18% constructively repeals any part of the act of 1875.” “That is the construction that I put upon it,” answered Mr. Sherman. ‘“‘here is another question which has arisen in regard to the construction of the law of 187. It is whether the Secretary of the Treasury can now sell any of the bonds provided for in the refunding law for any purpose whatever except the maintenance of United States notes at par with gold. Ne Authority for Bonds Now. “Suppose the Secretary of the Treasury should be called upon now to provide money to; make good this reserve, for in- stance. How could he do it? Where can he get the money? The only law that au- thorizes the Secretary of the Treasury to issue bonds is the law of 1875, and It speci- fies as 4 per cent, thirty-year bonds; 4 1-2 per cent, fifteen-year bonds, and 5 per cent, ten-year Wnds. They are to be issued for the specific purpose of maintaining resump- tion on United States notes. There has been no alteration of that law. I would Mike any lawyer here to tell me whether by any act passed since that time there is the slightest provision that can be con- strued into authority to the Secretary of the Treasury to sell those bonds except to maintain the payment of United States notes. “If you leave the Secretary in the present condition of affairs unarmed with the au- = to borrow money on the credit of Unit duty when it is plainly called to your at- tention. Under existing law there is no power to sell any of those bonds except for the purpose of having gold enough to redeem United States notes. And no Sec- retary of the Treasury will dare issue either of those species of bonds even if the law permitted him to do it.” “Is it not true,” asked Mr. Blackburn, “that not one, but two, Attorney Generals have taken a different view and have held that the Treasury Department has author- Mr. Sherman. ity_to sell those bonds?” “T think not,” said ~~ have not seen any of those opinions.” Mr. Butler wanted to know if the Sec- retary of the Treasury had asked for bonds. Mr. Sherman said he did not care to answer that question, but afterward sald he believed he had so asked. Mr. Blackburn asked if ex-Attorney Gen- eral Miller during the last administration had given an opinion holding that bonds could not be issued and whether the plates were not made at the bureau of engraving and printing? Mr. Sherman did not know all that and denied that he had been consulted. Mr. Blackburn said the plates could be produced in the Senate within an hour. His Proyosed Amendment. Mr. Sherman said that Congress must do something to help the Secretary of the Treasury, and do it at once. He didn’t offer an amendment, but sent to the clerk's desk and had read the amendment which he had intended to offer. It authorized the issue of not to exceed two hundred million 3 per cent bonds, redeemable in three years in coin, in denominations of $%@ or multiples thereof. These bonds, he said, would not be bought by syndicates, but by the great mass of the people. The issue of such bonds, Mr. Sherman said, must be considered immediately after the passage of the pending bill. Mr. Gorman Criticies Mr. Sherman. Mr. Gorman criticised Mr. Sherman's at- titude as remarkable and said that he was seeking party advantage. The repuljil- cans had the key to the situation and Pres- ident Cleveland had been obliged to accept Sherman's conditions. The delay in the Senate was because repeal had been in the minority and it required time to turn that into a majority. Mr. Gorman recalled Sherman's state- ment in a published interview, that uncon- ditional ‘was impossible. Mr. Sherman replied that it would have been except for the collapse of the com- ise. Mr. Gorman said the democrats Raa ‘been obliged to set aside lifetime con- vietions to meet the emergency and save the administration. With them he be- Heved it was bad to strike down without Motice any industry. He did not object to the bond proposition, but to the time and manner of broaching it. Had the re- publicans shown less partisanship a better Dill could be passed. Mr. Sherman stated that republicans had been given to understand that all propo-! sitions incorporating an issue of bonds had been rejected. Mr. Gorman declined to repeat confiden- tial talks, but added that it was exceed- igly unfortunate that democrats had been misunderstood. Mr. Gorman expected fur- ther financial trouble for the treasury. It would be caused by extravagant appropria- ticns in recent Congresses, but he asserted the democratic party. now controlling the | entire government. would assume the re- Spensibility of meeting it. Mr. Stewart followed Mr. Gorman. Mr. Stewart's Substitute Rejected. By a vote of 39 to 29 the Senate rejected Mr. Stewart's substitute for Mr. Perkins’ amendment, which authorized free coinage fm any denomination, instead of specific coins, as stipulated in the Perkins amend- ment. ‘The Perkins Amendment Rejected. The vote wis next taken on Mr. Per- kins amendment, with the monetary com- mission provision expunged. This amend- ment provides for the free coinage, the Government retaining ® per cent seignior- age. and otber minor provisions. ee was rejected by a vate of 41 The Bland-Altison Act.

OMAHA, Oct. 28.—Interesting features are coming to light in connection with the shooting of Henry Reiser by Mrs. Rudiger, on Thursday night. Reiser seemed to pos- sess an uncontrollable influence over the) woman. She was so completely infatuated with him that she stood his brutal abuse for a long time without remonstrance. Reiser treated his heipless victim with great cruelty. It is only a matter of two weeks ago,since she called on a local phy- sician to reduce two fractured ribs, evi- dence of the ferocious brutality of Reiser. After the shooting he was taken to the hospital, where he still les, with very scant chances of recovery. ————> — Stones Huried at a Lecturer. ST.

His Wife Dreamed About the Ten- Dellar Bill He Had Lost. From the New York Snn. “The wife of a friend of mine in Middle- town had a curious dream the other night,” said a well-known Orange county iawyer. “Her husband had received # sum of money and he rolled the bills up with a brand new ten-dollar bill on the outside. He went home in the evening, and while giving his wife some money noticed that the new ten- dollar bill was gone. He searched his pocket, but the missing note could not be found. The loss naturally caused quite a little commotion in the household, and the matter was discussed even after my friend and his wife had retired for the night. “Next morning the wife woke up her husband, and brought the subject of the lost bill to his mind by the query: “Was that ten-dollar bill numbered 1517 | “The busband said he didn’t know whether the number was 151 or whether the bill had any number on it at all. “‘And furthermore,’ said he, ‘I don't care, for I never expect to see the bill again.” “Don’t you be too sure,’ sald his wife. “You took that money out of your pocket before you got into the house last night.’ “Ton, did,” said the husband. ‘But how did you know it?” ““T bad a dream last night that you did,” replied the wife. ‘And I dreamed that the number of the bill wes 151, and that the wind blew the note out of your hand.’ = ‘onsense!” said the husband. ‘Nothing more was said about ft. My friend ate his breakfast and went to his business. Early in the forenoon his wife came in smiling. She had a new ten-doliar bill in her hand. She showed the number to her husband triumphantly. It was 151. ““And YT went out in the garden and found the bill among the tomato vines, just where I dreamed the wind had carried it,’ she said. “Now this is fact. How can you explain A SERIOUS CHARGE. Arrest of s School Teacher for Alleged Ornel Treatment, A Boy Said to Be Dying From the Re- sult of the Assault—Staten:c + of the Teacher. Moses Stevens, a ten-year-old colored school boy, who lives with his mother at ‘0. 1124 New Jersey avenue northwest, has been confined to his bed for several weeks, and his attending physicians have no hope whatever of his recovery. The boy was once # strong, hearty-looking lad, but now he is so emaciated as to be almost a skel- eton. His present condition, it is charged, is the result of punishment inflicted by his teacher, Miss Sarah Jane Jennifer, who presides over the fifth grade in the Slater building, which is on P street northwest, between North Capito: and Ist streets. Mrs. Melvina Stevens, the boy's mother, swore out a warrant for the teacher yes- terday, and the case may possibly be aired in the Police Court. It was on the 26th day of last month that the alleged assault ts charged to have taken place. The boy, who had never had any trouble in school before, so his mother says, returned home from school and com- plained that his teacher had ij!l-treated him. Soon afterward he was taken sick and had to go to bed. Principal Montgomery's Investigation Complaint was made to the school author- itles and Mr. Montgomery, the supervising principal, made a thorough investigation of the charges. His report fully exonerated the teacher. He listened to the statements of the children in Miss Jennifers room and could only learn that she seated him on the platform as a means of punishing him for inattention during studies. The patient grew worse, and when one of the doctors told Mrs. Stevens that her boy would die and that nothing could be done for him, she went to the Police Court and swore out a warrant, which was placed in bre nee of the officers of the second pre- cinct. Miss Jennifer learned of Mrs. Stevens actions and this morning she consulted her attorney, Mr. Campbell Carrington, accom- panied by Mr. Montgomery and another teacher. Mr. Carrington went into court and had bail fixed in the case at $5,000. Mr. Montgomery qualified as bondsman, but the case was not set for a hearing on any particular day. The Boy’s Story. The boy's story of the affair, as he told his mother, is that his teacher called him up to her desk, gave him a terrible shak- ing and then pushed him upon the plat- form so violently that he fell, with his back striking the sharp edge of the platform and his head butting against the floor of it. ‘This was the story of the affair as told by the mother to a Star reporter today. She also said that there was a scar across his back, where he had struck against the platform. The doctor, she said, told her that his spine was injured, and that in- flammation of the brain had set in. He told her, she said, that there was not the slightest chance of his recovering. It seems the patient is unconscious, and his mother says that he has called for all his teachers, with the exception of Miss Jennifer. Be- fore this affair she said her boy was the picture of health, .and had not even com- | plained of being sick. What Miss Jennifer Says. Miss Jennifer, the teacher, told a Star re- Porter that she had been teaching for ten | years and this was the first time she ever had any trouble with a pupil. For three | days before the affair, she said, the boy was | drowsy and often he would put his head on his desk and go to sleep. She permitted it, thinking he was sick. On the day of the affair, she said, she called him from his seat for inattention to studies and seated him on the platform by pressing on his shoul- ders. There was another boy punished at the same time and in that same way, she sald, and the affair did not even interrupt the lesson. It had been stated she said that she struck the boy, but further than stated | she asserted she did not touch him. | oo |CATS FOR A HONEYMOON CONCERT. Irving T. Smith and Louis E. Ship- mar Are Now Even on Wedding-Day Jokes. From the New York Tribune. The friends of Louis Evan Shipman and Irving T. Smith, two well-known young | clubmen, are enjoying a practical joke which has resulted in the conversion of Mr. Shipman'’s present home at Berkeley Springs, W. Va., into an asylum for aged and indigent cats. Mr. Shipman is a wealthy trader in metals and when he is | in town lives at No. 359 West 20th street. | Mr. Smith, a lawyer who pays as much attention to art as to law, lives most com- fortably at St. Mark’s and Brooklyn ave- |nues, Brooklyn. The friendship between | Smith and Shipman has been akin to that ; of Darby and Joan, and their passion for playing practical jokes is weil known among thelr acquaintances. Bighteen months ago Mr. Smith married & well-known society woman of Baltimore. When no one was looking Mr. Shipman affixed on the carriage containing the newly wedded couple a big white placard thus inscribed The attention the carriage received w: as surprising to the couple as it was hor- | Titying when they discovered the cause. Mr. Smith straightway made a resolution never to sleep quietly until he “got even” with his friend. Last week it was announced that Mr. Shipman had married and was spending his honeymoon at The Homestead at Berkeley rings. “Ah, ha," cried Mr. Smith, in great glee. “He shall have music to make the honey- moon tuneful. And forthwith he printed = following advertisement Sunday morn- ing: \. B.—A cat will receive best of care and ‘tention in a Utopian home; the animal should possess exceptional combative abil- ities and be able to withstand the rarefied atmosphere of the coun any one send- | ing such a cat will receive a check by re- turn mail. Address Louis Evan Shipman, Berkeley Springs, Morgan county, W. Va., via United States Express Company. It is not known how many felines have been received by Mr. Shipman, but Mr. Smith expresses the hope that they will overwhelm Morgan county. Mr. Smith was said to be in Pittsfield when a Tribune reporter called yesterday at his home in Brooklyn, but his mother said she had not the slightest doubt that her fun-loving son had inserted the adver- tisement. ghee The Metserott Hall Case. The jury in‘ the Metzerott Hall case to- day gave a verdict in favor of Fava, Neff & Co., defendants, and against W. G. Metz- erott & Co., to W. S. Pieger in the sum of —_—.——_ Suicides in France. Paris Letter in Lordon Telegraph. ‘The minister of justice has just published some statistics of suicides which are not without interest. They show an average | of 4 per cent for males under twenty years of age and 32 per cent for men over sixty. Of suicides of females, on the other hand, 9 per cent were those of girls under twenty, while there were not more than 27 per cent for women over sixty years of age. Twenty- six per cent of the suicides were attributed to mental derangement and twenty to physical suffering. Drunkenness is held — for 12 per cent and love affairs | for 4. Most of the men had recourse to the rope, while the women preferred death by drown- ing, though some took poison, which seems to be altogether eschewed by the sterner sex. Strangely enough, suicides are far more frequent in the spring and summer than during the colder months, which leads to the inference that want, which is much more prevalent in the winter than in the other seasons, is not the usual cause of these sad determinations to be rid of life. —_——+ e+ _____ Lieut.

They have made public answer to the white caps and state firmly that incendiarism will be met by the | extermination of the white caps. White caps have posted notices warning ginners in Texas that if any more cotton was ginned until ten cents @ pound was reached, the torch would be applied. The Farmers'’Alliance and grangers held « meet- ing and told ginners to pay no attention to the notices. Last night the white caps set fire to Will Fermann’s gin, which, with thirty bales of cotton, was totaily destroy- ed. The first white cap caught will be lynched, as the whole country is aroused.

Wall Street Continues to Discount the Effect of Repeal. PRICES OF STOCKS STILL GOING UE Money Becoming a Drug Which Will Keep Up Stocks. GENERAL MARKET REPORTS. —a_— Special Dispatch to The Evening Star. NEW YORK, Oct. 28.—Interest in specula- tion shows no signs of abatement and prices are steadily improving in conse- quence. Yesterdays test vote in the Senate had a good effect on introductory prices, varying from 1-4 to 1 per cent. London was fractionally higher and bought a few stocks here, principally St. Paul and Nashville. The short interest, as indicated by the loaning rates for active stocks, is still large and myst soon be forced to cover, unless the reaction now re- a8 overdue, should put in appear- ance within the next few days. It is im- possible to estimate to what extent the street has discounted the good effect of un- CIRCULATION or THE sTAR” “EVENING conditional repeal and what will follow the | 2°. presidential confirmation of the Senate's for present advance and aoewespes at any moment. epetheridax is view, of course, is based on e: I~ ence only, as there was not! ‘apperent in today’s market that would justify the ree — —_ the retrograde movement . closing figures rule, the were, as a Orders by mail and telegraph have con- tributed largely to the week's activity and indicate that other interests besides those of the professional tor were responsi- ble for the splendid wing of the last few Opposed to the reactionary theory, is the fact that money continues to flow from the interior into local repositories and is fast becoming a Grug in the market. This will naturally result in what will probably be the lowest loaning rates for money ve- corded within recent years, and force this immense surplus of idle funds into the bond and stock market as the only available means of earning interest. This would sus- tain the advance now in progress and force | a higher level for all clatses of securities. | Dividend payers will be first in demand, but the low priced stocks will also be favorably influenced by the improvement of their neighbors. London is expected to participate to a greater extent in the upward movement next week and make an active market for international securities. The bank statement was fully up to ex- pectations, and shows an crease in loans and to restore some of the the legitimate channels of trade. The in- crease in deposits will add an extra $3,000,- 000 to the necessary reserve next week, and the increase in reserve already runs that item up to $48,000,000. ae FINANCIAL AND COMMERCIAL, The fon opening, the and lowees and chesine pricgust ths See Fork dock Members New Teal crock eachanes Cormenteeks Mesnrs.
