Globe- Great anxiety is felt here regarding the fate of Augustin Cazeaux, a well-known American citizen and a native of New Or- leans, who went with some race horses to Guatemala a month ago. He was expected back, but has not yet returned. He won a number of races in Gautemala City, one of which was over a horse owned by General Barrios. In thus allowing his horse to win over that of the Guatematan president he did not show as just an appreciation of the situation as he might have done. Word is anxiously awaited here from the missing man, for it is feared that he may have been slain in the warfare into which the country ‘has been plunged for some time. -in.-the® tre: COSOS SOS 95 08 O SOOSSOOSESOHOT DOOD PLAN OF SEC'Y GAGE = Ao NO COMPROMISE y~ WM SILVER Readiness to Exthasge Gold for Si ner sh ——- A CAUSE FOR SURPRISE ————_+— Much interest is taken in the outline of financial policy submitted yesterday to the Presicent and cabinet by Secretary Gage. The suggestioas made’are just about what has been anticipated, but the official state- ments takes the matte out of the field of speculation. It is in accordance with the view of the leading bankers of tht country and gratify- ing to those who are opposed to any com- promise with the “silver sentiment.” There is nothing equivocal: that only thing in it that is viewed with some surprise is the statemetit that the treas- ury “has deClared ftself’ ready whenever recessary to the maintenance of this par- ure of the holder, eithet form of the ine- tallic money for the other.” It has been said by some thai it was the policy of the- treasury not to regard the coin silver dollars as basic money, it has never been understood that department held itself ready to giv in exchange for silver coin, which equivalent to making the silver coin 1 deemable in gold. . It was supposed when the endless chain was in operation drawing out the gold re- serve from the treasury that the only sorts of currency available fer the purposes of getting the gold were the greenbacks and the so-called Sherman notes of 1890. This statement, however, indicates that the silver coin and silver certificates might be used ‘4 the same way, by being present- ed for redemption in gold. Secretary Gage’s Plan. The Secretary says that his predecessors in c@ice since the war have regularly, in their-annual reports, Called attention to the menace to the public credit occasioned by the continued use of the large volume of demand liabilities represented by the legal tender notes, and have frequently appcaled for legislation to remove the danger. In addition to the $34,000,000 of legal tender notes, and $14,000,000 of treasury notes, the government must hold itself in readiness to maintain the free interchange- ability with: gold for $440,000,000 in silver. The aggregate of these liabilities amounts to $00,000,000, although the goverament may never be called upon to pay this at any one time, or any large portion of it at a time. From this the Secretary proceeds to argue that the traditional $100,000,000 gold reserve is inadequate, no matter how good the conditions of the country or the confidence of the people. —Conditio prosperity and happiness are not alw: assured, he says. ‘The Secretary thet! says: Reduction of Govepanpnt Obligations “The conditior of t¥e Geesury in its re- Jation to demand obligations requires that one oi two steps be takén. The one may Se a large reinforcement,¢o the permanent gold reserve. The other may be by an important reduction in” the objectional form of liabilities. The latter is, in my opinion, the more : proper legisiatien be e le. ation is that cted_ which will establish separate and apart from the or- dinary operations of the treasury as they relate to revenue an@ expenditures a de- partment to be designated and known as the issue and redemption division. To this division the sum of 429,090.00 in gold coin should be set over from the: general fund asury, to~be-dsed-only~ for re- demption pruposes; that all the silver dol- lars new held for redemptior-of silver cer- tificates, and all the silver bullion and dol- lars coined therefrom, brought under the act of 1890, be passed to the same account. “Further, that the sum of $200,000,000, in the legal tender notes of the United States, known as greenbacks, be collected as hereinafter described and deposited in the said department of issue and redemp- tion, to be disbursed therefrom only upon the receipt in exchange therefor of an equivalent amount of gold coin. Such gold, when so secured, to be held in said de- partment as part of the general redemp- tion fund.” The second recommendation of the Secre- tary is for the refunding of loan bonds at the rate of 2% per cent, principal and in- terest payable in gold. On the subject of national bank notes the Secretary recommends: The National Ranks. “First. Permit national banks to be or- ganized with a minimum capital of $25,000 in any place having a population of 2,000 inhabitants or less. “Second. Reduce the rate of taxation on circulating notes secured by deposit of bonds to one-half of 1 per cent per annum. “Third. Permit banks now organized or hereafter organized to issue circulating notes to the par value of the refunding bonds hereinbefore provided deposited by them with the treasurer of the United States And further, allow such banks as shall avail themselves of the opportunity to deposit as security -with the treasury of the United States greenbicks, treasury notes, or silver certificates to the amount of $20,000,000, against which there shall at once issue to them by the controller of the currency national bank notes to an equal amount, it being further, provided that from time to time, at his convenience, the Secretary-of the Treasury shall substitute for the greenbucks treasury notes and sil- ver certificates so deposited to secure cir- culation bonds of the same class and char- acter as the refunding bonds first named to the amount of $200,000,000. Such bonds to be chargeable to said bapks and by them accounted for at such price (not less than par) as the market quotations may indicate to be their fair market value. During the period of time intervening between the de- posit of greenbacks, treasury notes and sil- ver certificates and the substitution of the bonds by the Secretary of the Treasury the circulating notes specifically issued there- for shall be exempt from taxation. Upon such substitution of bonds the funds re- leased thereby shall at once be transferred by the Secretary of the Treasury to the bureau of issue and redemption. “Fourth. After sald banks have depos- ited such bonds, greenbacks, treasury notes or silver certificates to the amount of 50 per cent of their capital, they shall be permitted to issug bak notes in addi- tion to the 50: per « hus -provided to the extent of 25 per cept of such de- posit, which said 25aper icent may be un- secured by any direct pledge of security, but issued against the assets of the bank. “Fifth. Extend th¥-‘gtrantee of pay- ment by the gover mine to all circulat- ing notes of the bank. whether “issued against deposited security or against as- sets. 7_tx “Sixth. To secure . the government against loss, if any, attaehing to its guar- antee, a tax of 2 pan-cemt per annum on unsecured circulationg shai be levied to create a safety fund; -whith fund shall be invested by the Secretary.of the Treasury and the controller of the currency in gov- ernment bonds. In m to such fund the government shal] Be further protected by having a first lien-upon all assets in case of the failure of the issuing bank. “Seventh. All notes, shajl be redeemed in the city of. New You. the subtreasury thereof and at suci, pther subtreasuries as may be designated by. the controller of the currency, with the‘approvai of the Sec- retary of the Treasury. The control of such redemption shall be under the direc- tion of the controller ‘9f the curtency and made from a redemption’ fund of 5 per cent to be provided by the-banks. “Bighth.

NEW PUBLICATIONS. AMERICAN IDEALS: and Other Essays, Political. By. Theodore Roosevelt. New York: G. P. Putnam's Sons. Washington: Brentano's. With one exceptioa each of these essays was published previously in magazines and reviews during a period extending back as far as 1886 and closing with the present month. That exception was an address upon “Washington's Forgotten Maxim,” delivered before the Naval War College last summer. Mr. Roosevelt's pub- lc services and natural trend of thouzht qualify him above most men for the pro- duction of such a series of papers. He has been associated with some most import- ant enterprises, national, municipal and private. He possesses a clear, vigorous style. and his Americanism is of a sort to Suggest the most satisfactory treatment of the subjects he has chosen, from the point of view of the American ieader. ‘Those subjects are: The American Ideal, True Americanism, th> Manly Virtues and Practical Politics, The College Graduate and Public Life, Phases of State Lezisia- ticn, Machine Politics in New York City. Six Years of Civil Service Reform, Admin- istering the New York Police Force, The Vice Presidency and the Campaign of 1896, Hew Not to Help Our Poorer Brother, The Monroe Doctrine, Washington's Forgotten Maxim, National Life and Character, So- cial Evolution, and The Law of Civilizi- tion and Decay. Bs win Dewitt * Maemilian Company. In this book the president of Bowdoin College has sought to make plain the fun- damertal principles of philosophy. In sis preface he states that he desires to tell in simple terms “how thought constructs the natural world in which we dwell; and how love is striving to create a spiritual world that shall be as fair as nature and as free as the will of man.” It is, he explains, an attempt to interpret the spiritual sig- nificance of every: life. It originated in a course of lectures delivered at the sumer school at Colorado Sprin; summer term of the Chicago 1 and at the Chautauqua Assembly. practical purpose of the work preclude the discussion of metaphysical problem and confines it to those “concrete aspects of philosophy” lying closest to the common conceins of men. PRACTICA’ Hyde. ASTOR Anerdotes of an Enterprise Beyond Mountains. iy Washington Irving. G. P. Putnam's Sons. Waxbington: New York: Brentavo's. Though less known and read, perhaps, than the “Alhambra” and some others of Irving's works, “Asteria” is highly es- teemed hy lovers of tales of adventure as well as of a delightfu! style. Irving is charming, whether he tells the stories of old New Amsterdam or the northern trap- Pers or the Moors in Spain. His works are well worth the most utiful of dress: and the “Takoma Edition” of ‘Astoria.’ in two volumes, is one of the finest prod: tions of the book pr this year. The scenes of the narrative are handsomely iNustrated from photographs, ani with each page of print en:lcrdered in a design appropriate to the text the whole effect is rich and artistic. TRUE DETECTIVE STORIES: From the Archives of the Pinkertons. By Cleveland Moffett. New York: Doubleday and McClure Co. Washington: Wm. Ballantyne & Sons. It does not always add io the prospec- tive interest of a story to assert that it is “founded on fact.” But the axiom that “truth is stranger than fiction,” ‘as be- come so widely accepied that it is an ad- vantage nowadays for an author to ad- mit that he has followed history in the presentation of romantic facts to his read- ers. The tates here gathered are, as the subtitle indicates, fragments from the his- tory of crime. Mr. Moffett’s work in their presentation is skillful. AFTER HER DEATH: The Story of “a Sm By the Author of “The World Beautiful” “From Dreamland Sent.’" Boston: Brothers. Washington: Wm. Ballantyne & Sons. An unnamed wriier here tells of the strong sentiment that binds her to an als? unnamed woman, even after the latter's death. It is not difficuit to appreciate that the writer refers to Miss Kate Field, who died last year in Honolulu. Indeed, a por- trait of her in her comparative youth forms the frontispicce of the beok, whieh is a sad, strenuous appeal for a belief in an ether that binds the living to the dead, as spiritual atmosphere of comfort for those left beaind.

Waring, dr. New York: Doubleday ‘and McClure Co. Washington: Wm. Ballantyne & Sons, Col. Waring, New York's street commis- sioner, is a horse lover, and in this vy ume he has told several entertaining and at times touching stories about certain horses that he has known and owned. A sketch of fox hunting in England, giving many particulars not familiar to Ameri- cans, concludes the book. IF I WERE GOD, By Richard Le Gallierne. ork: T. ¥. Crowell & Co. In the course of this sketch a man and 2 woman discuss the meaning of human life. The woman is a Christian, the man fails to see harmony between the fact of the world and a beneficent Deity. Neither convinces the other, but the discourse pro- duces a better spirit within the man, who is afflicted with deep grief. THE OLD GENT By Thomas Nelsoa Page. > c Scribner's Sons.
