He spent almost the entire day in| this work, giving no time to callers. The| epeech s about 8,000 words in length. He hos adhered to his original intention of de voting the document almost entirely to th question of imperialism. In following this course he pursues the general plan adopted in 1896 of giving especial attention in his | netification speech to the subject made par amount by the democratic platform. For this reason the policy of the government with reference to the acquisition of foreign territory will this year be given the place of prominence which was allotted to the financtal question in 1896, the other subj being left to be dealt with in the letter of acceptance, to be given out later. The re- marke upon this subject are based upon the administration’s conduct of affairs in the Phillppine archipelago. It is now Mr. Bryan’s intention to remain | in Chicago for several days, possibly a week, after the Indianapolis meeting, the entire time to be given to conferences with lead ers of all the forces supporting him.

The confession, if true, throws no further light on the case than to connect Henry Youtsey, another of the alleged con- spirators, more closely with the murder and to bear out the idea of a conspiracy, a sum of money being used W. A. Phelps, also of Grayson Springs corroborated the statement of Carter and \dentificd Weaver, who was brought before the jury for that purpose. At the opening of court in the Powers trial today Frank C. Carpenter, the Louisville in- surance man, who was on the witness stand at the closing of court yesterday, was cross- examined by the prosecution. The examina- tion developed nothing very material and he was followed by Sam H. Stone, former state audttor. He was asked by the defense whether or not Witness W. H. Culton, who was & clerk in his office, had been remaved because he had stolen $1,000 from the state. He said that such was the case and that he removed Culton the day before he himself retired. The prosecution objected to the question and the court resecved a ruling on it. On cross-examination Captain Stone sald that he did not go before the grand jury and ask the indictment of Culton for the defalcation The defense next called George L. Dan- forth of Loufsville, who was with Witness Carponter in the state senate chamber at the time of the shooting of Goebel. He did not leave the grounds for thirty minutes after the shooting and soldiers had not ar- rived on the scene. H. Gdbson of Bar- bourville came next. Golden Displays Roll. He was asked to tell of an alleged occur- rence in a barber shop at Barbourville, when Witness Wharton Golden displayed & large roll of money. Before the prosecution could object witness answered that such a thing had occurred. The prosecution asked for the exelusion of the testimony and by agreement the wituess stood aside to be lled later James Harkleroad, in whose barber shop the incident is said to have occurred, was called. He said that Golden told him on the day that Defendant Powers was arrested that Powers was innocent. Later Golden came into his shop and in his presence dis- played a roll of paper money to his brother, Ike Golden, and sald to him: “Don't you know that a $100,000 reward fund is being circulated ? On cross-examination the prosecution at- tacked the credibility of the witness, bring- ing out that he had been indicted for the illegal sale of liquor. Witness ‘Gibson was recalled and corroborated Harklerood's testimony. J, L. Butler of Butler county followed Gibson on the stand. He attended a meeting in the office of defendant, Powers, some days b fore the shooting at which the raising of money to pay the expenses of the witnesses was discussed. Sheriff Burton of Breckin- ridge county there displayed some the gubernatorial con- best be settled with them Burton that he must not talk he would rather give up his than cause bloodshed.

He asserts that Hockersmith told him that Henry Youtsey offered him $1,200 10 kill Goebel and showed him how it could be done through a window in the ofce of the wecretary of state.

The iginal basis of the treasury estimate is a computation made by Dr. Linderman, di rector of the mint in 1873, Gold was then at a premium and not in general circulation | He took the amount in the treasury and in national banks and added $20,000,000 for cirenlation the Pacif and $10, 000,000 for holdings of other banks and hoards, $135,000,000. To this has been added colnage and the imports | and subtracted the colnage, the exports and | an estimated for consumption in the arts. The result is the current estimate, he gold in the treasury and in national banks comprises the ouly stock that be actually counted time of the last repor statement national banks, April 1000, their hold ings were $195,7 treasury hold ings May 1 , the two items | aggregating $622,759,243. The estimate for May 1 $1,042,525,117, which left $420,- 000,000 to be accounted for as held by state and private banks, trust companies and in safes, pockets and hoards. This is the eum subject to modification d Out by Travelers, No account has been taken in the past of gold carried out of the country on the persons of travelers, It being assumed that there was little of it nd that all but an appreciable amount was returned by in coming travelers. This year the bureau has made a systematic effort to learn what this movem amounted to by Inquiries ad dressed the steamehip lines, money changers the principal ports and our officers abroad. ‘The reply indicates that | the gold carried out finds its way through bankers to the principal banks of lssue in the several countries. A well-known tour- l6t agency recelves from travelers from $100,000 to $150,000 per year and turns it into the Bank of England. About $75,000 per annum is melted at Geneva and in all @ not lose of $600,000 to $800,000 is indi- cated. At the latter rate In twenty-five years the total would be $20,000,000, a sum that shouid be taken arcount of. An effort has been made to arrive at the present con sumption of coin by manufacturers, jewel ers, dentists and others in the industrial arts. Inquiries have been addressed to about 45,000 firms and individuals and re- plies have been received from 70 per cent of them. Tho returns indicate a total con- sumption of about $3,500,000, “In the report of 1893 the bureau estimate s never less than this amount, and since 1893 it has been placed at $1,500,000. The reduction seems to have been an error. An additional allowance of $2,000,000 per year for seven years would require corr $14,000,000. ten; as compa on the in all ot each year the | t domestic sum the part At the by the Th were $426,080,3 was Gold Carri to at ction of Estimate Too Large by £100,000,000, “Mr. Muhleman of the New York sub- treasury has been a diligent student of the subect for years and is of the opinlon that owlng chiefly to errors made prior to 1885 the estimate has been too lurge by perhaps $100,000,000. He attacks Dr. Linderman’s originul estimate and argues that it was $29,000,000 too Ligh, and he has recently made am exhaustive investigation of im- ports and exports of coin and bulllon since 1873, By checking these from other sources of information he is led to believe that at times bullion and foreign coin have been reported as domestic coin, which would carry error into the estimate of coin stock. He thinks those errors in reported exports and imports may have increased the estimates by as much as $45,000,000. Mr. Muhleman's tables are very elaborate and will require considerable time for re- view. Some of his corrections doubtless will be accepted and the amount finally deducted from the previous estimate, as a result of the revision, probably will be between $50,000,000 and $100,000,000. In my opinion there should be a much more ex- tended inquiry before the figures are finally fixed upon, as the result of fnvestigation will be the basis of calculations for a long time to come. These changes spread over stimates for twenty-five years and ly prior to 1585 signify nothing us to available resources of the country. They alter the calculations as to the hid den hoards, but they are not a part of the active stock and are not even avallable in time of need, for hoards increase instead of decline at such a time, Reductions do not alter the figures of our stock in recent years, but rather emphasize them, for the additions made larger in proportion to the total stock. The estimate of the stock August 1 last was $3,033,518,802, and i the entire $100,000,000 was deducted the stock would remain 60 per cent above what it was four years ago. “The inquiry as to the exact stock is of ) statistical and comparative pur- not for the purposc of determining whether or not the country has gold enough. The country, on the gold basis gets the share of the world's gold which its proportion of the world’s business brings it. That share is controlled by the laws of trade, not by governmental regulation Au inquiry into what ch country holds is like an inquiry into what amount of & man's blood enters into the right arm. 1 1 upon that it is the right amount-which that member requires. Our greut gain In gold in recent years has come bocause we could use it and our position in the world's trade has cnabled us to com- mand it.’ WIN PROMOTION BY MERIT Na rissioned { Regular Army Ma Licutenants, o5, share e may be depend Over n Yorty ™ of- WASHINGTON Appointments of Aug. 3.~The following second lieutenants from the regular army were made Al these men have excellent service records and have made uniformly high averages in their examinations.
