So deep-seated was the prejudice of scme high in authority for the old and useless methods, that a general who com- manded fifty thousand men spent half an hour arguing with me in favor of the old black powder. He said he had had some !n his possession for twenty-two years, and he did not want to give it up. Like the old weman who had a cancer, he did not know how to get along without it.” Return of Battle Flags. One of the most impressive and interest- ing of the many meetings held in Cincin- nati during this week was that of Wedn: y evening in the rooms of the Noyes-Mc- Kk Post, in Odd Fellows’ Temple. The interesting feature of the occasion the formal return of the flags of the st. 58th and Guth O. V. L, which were captured by the confederates at Harper's Ferry. The Noyes-McCook Post contains many of the survivors of these regiments, ind their meeting with many of Morgan's raiders who were present was quite dif- ferent frem the meeting during the days when they lost their flags. Generai Basil Duke, whe when the flags were captured, was John Morgan's chief lieutenant, returned the flags to their re- spective regiments. General Duke spoke in eloquent terms, with a feeling which brought tears to the eyes of many an old veteran. He was roundly applauded and given hearty cheers by his battlefield enemies. A musical program was rendered and the meeting broke up in a good old- fashioned lore feast. Not for a long time past was there so much enthustasm, sympathy and affection displayed among a body of men as that in evidence at the reunion of “Morgan's tren” and the 7th Ohio Cavalry held at the chamber of commerce Wednesday. The meeting was unique, having no pre- cedent. The most reme were repre: te sections of the country ented, veterans coming from as far as Los Angeles, California, to be present at the demonstration. The meet- ing opened at 10 a.m. The number in at- tendance exceeded the most extravagant anticipations, between 300 and 430 excon- federates coming from Kentucky alone. The most distinguished guests were Gen- eral Basil Duke of Louisville, Ky.. and Dick Morgan of Lexington, Ky. The lat- ter is_a brother of the famous General John Morg was received with cheers in c e. The old 7th Ohio Cavalry was also well represented. Cheers for Morgan's Men. Colonel Theodore F. Allen of Cincinnati opened the meeting, introducing Captain artin Schuler, who called the Ohio boys to attention and invited them to give three cheers for Morgan's men. This was unc pected by the latter delegation, but they quickly recovered, rallied for a counter charge and gave three cheers for the 7th Ohio. Speeches were then made, such the chamber of commerce had never heard. ‘The speeches of General Duke, Dick Mor- 1in Gurrant elicited especial the ith Allen, nd Captain Charles ytain Schule chell.

MORE CONVENIENT MONEY 13 NEEDED Proceeds of Bond Issue Making a Big Surplus. RETIREMENT OF GREENBACKS The predictions of an overflowing treas- ury as the result of the liberal provision made by Congress for carrying on the Spanish war are being rapidiy verified by the treasury returns. The cash halance, which fell to a minimum of $1 004 June 16, about the time of the passage of the war revenue bill, had risen at the close of last week to $3C9,785,101. This gain of $124,000,000 is the result of payments for the 3 per cent bonds and the proceeds of the war revenue bill. The war with Spain coat up to the close of August about $116,- 000,000, Of this amount about $24,000,000 was provided by the collections under the new revenues law during July and Angusc. The returns thus far during Septemher do not indicate that the aftermath, or the ex- Penditures necessary for settling contracts and paying the troops still in the service, will much more than absorb the procesds of the new revenue law. The first ten days of September have witnessed an increase in the cash reserve of $14,000,000 and an in- crease in the gold reserve of more than $19,000,000. Receipts from ordinary sources during the ten days were $13,797,300, and expenditures were $14,522,000. This shows a@ net deticit of only $724,600, in spile of drafts by the War Department during September amounting to $5,970,000 and by tho navy amounting to $1,000,000. The amount thus far received for the 3 per cent bonds is % 54,46), leaving a little more than $25,000,000 to come in. A part of this will bs delaye¢, pending the decision of suspended cases of subscriptions for the bonds and the maturity of the iast install- ments; but most subscribers have paid up promptiy in full upon receipt of the notices of allotment of the bonds. The treasury 1s likely, therefore, to witness a further in- crease of the cash balance before the close of September to §20,000,000, and i t likely to witness any material reduction of this amount until ihere is legislation. for reducing taxation or providing for the use of the money Reason for the Big Surplus. The reason for this great excess of cash in the treasury is found partly in the shortness of the war and partly In t amp) provisions made for it by the 3 per cent loan and the new revenue law. § tary Gage, although desirious of mect the war with a resolute financial polley, did not at first pro to issue more than $100.000,000 of boncs.

The rapid growth of the gold reserve is one of the most remarkable ph of the treasury situation ud indicates the strer by the cessation of flation un the have been since 189 ns of in- creasing the circ tion of gold and issue of bank notes upon United States bonds.

SRTY, Mo., Benjamin y-haired man, sixty-eight years taken from the Clay mob of about seventy-five jail by men and lynched. Jones committed an as- sault on Annie Montgom eleven years old, Saturday evening, and confessed his guilt just before he was hanged Saturday Jones got Mrs. John Montgom- ery’s consent to take her little girl to the local fair. They spent the day there. ing home in a buggy at 7:30 in the ing. The assault was made on the way home. When she arrived home she told her parents of the brute’s deed. Physi- cians who were called reported her co tion such that she could not live. The father spread the news, and with the aid of Constable Roberts soon located Jones near his home. An angry crowd gathered quickly, and it was with diffi- culty that Roberts managed to get Jones to jail. All day long crowds of horsemen came in from ali directions, and at a late hour last night the command was given to surround the court house. The work of cutting the bolts in the locks of the doors was begun and soon the doors were open, and there was a rush into the jail. The lynchers soon came out with the rope around the old man’s neck. He was beg- ging for his life, but no heed was paid to his appeals. He was led out the hallway to the front entrance. “Hang bim right here!” the masked men A few minutes were spent debating the matter, but the end of the rope had al ready ‘gone over an iron beam of the porch. The old man stood trembling and grcaning. “Have you anything to say?” were the gruff words of the leader. “I was drunk when I done it. arunk,” came the reply. ‘The command to swing him up was given, There was a quick jerk on the one-half of the rope and the body was given a swing out into the air from off the top step.
