Joffery presilont of the Denver & Rio Grande rail- road, and chairman of the regular confer- o of western presidents, said today that the regular quariorly mceting of the chilet executives of the western railroads would begin in this city next Wednesday and will proceed on lines similar to those followed at previous mectings. Asked whether the members of the divistonal commlittee ap pointed to regulatg and maintain rates throughout the western territory had failed, as reported from quarters the west, Presidont Joffery sald The efforts instituted by our con ferenco to maintain and regulate rates b not falled. On the contrary, much progress has been mado in bringing about a better undorstanding and more cordial co-opera- tion among the different railroads in tho west. “It 1s not true that woe have triel to form freight trafic pools. Our alm has been to kecure such co-operation of the different raflrond companies as would result fa the ablishment of uniform and stable inter- state rates. We desire to nave such rates published and in that way inform both rail- road and shippers just what the houest charges of the freight shipments should be. Publicity in the matter of railroad rates, I belleve, will have a salutary effect. It we can hold all the railroad companies to a public accountability tor the mainte- rance of its pledges we shall have advanced & long way toward the desired reform. “I am happy to say that a great deal of good has been accomplished thus far through the organization of our commit- tees and the progpects for the future are favorable. Kven If there I8 rate-cutting now, it is safe to say that the evil has been materlally reduced. A better feeling be- tween the raflroads throughout the west 1s surely developing."

It 1 Estimated That OMelal Reports to He Isyued Soon Wiil Show tthe Total Supply of Gold In Amer- fca to Be $1,100,000,000. WASHINGTON, Nov. 20.—The largest stock of gold coin and bullion ever held in the United States is now accumulated in the treasury and its branches. The total has been rising steadily during the whole of the present year and Is now $474,108,336, or about $76,000,000 greater than at the close of 1899, This gold fs not all the direct property of the United States, but Is held against outstanding gold certificates. The amount of these, less the amount In the treasury and its branches, was $230,705,809 on Wednesday. Al the remaining gold, amounting to about $243,000,000, belongs to the treasury as a part of the reserve fund of $150,000,000. The Influx of gold Into the treasury comes partly from the new gold from the Klondike and other mines, but its retentlon Is due to the pressure for urrency which leads to the acceptance of gold certificates and other paper mone: in preference to coin. The treasury re cently has been shipping small notes in large quantities to New Orleans and other points upon sita of gold in the New York subtrens by the New York re- sorve agents of the southern banks, The fact that $474,108,3%6 is thus accu- mulated In a senge under a single afithority bles an estimate to be made of some of the other visible gold resources of the ecountry. ‘The national banks reported gold holdings on Scptember 5 of about $312,- 000,000, of which amount $115,018,140 was In the gold certificates issued by the treas- ury. The remainder, about $197,000,000, if added 1o the visible gold in the treasury, makes a total in these two classos of es- tablishments alone of about $670,000,000 This is more than the estimated stock of gold in the United States at the close of 1803 The gold supply of the country on the last day of 1896 was estimated at $652,947,- 212, The estimated punt November 1, 1500, was $1,080,027,407, and it 1s probable that the report for December 1 will show at least $1,100,000,000. The treasury of- ficlals are confident that the round sum of $475,000,000 in treasury gold holdings will 8001 Le attained, and that even $500,000,000 is not beyond reasonable expectation NEED OF A NAVAL RESERVE Present Militia ¥ Not Ava entire ce Capal ble on Short Notie WASHINGTON, Nov. 30.—Lieutenant Commander W. H. H. Sutherland, the officer in charge of the maval militia, hus made a special report to the Navy depart- ment upon the operations of that organiza- tlon during the past year. Twenty states are shown to bhave an organized naval militia, comprising in all 567 eficers and 5,300 petty officers and en- listed men. The naval appropriation act allotted the sum of $50,000 for the militla, of which $57,000 had been distributed among the twenty state organizations on January 1 last. The Navy department as- signed two vessels for the practice cruige of the militla, ther Prairig am the Atiantic coast and the Michigan on the Great Lakes Through fack of ficitles, a vessel on the Paclfic seaboard was not assigned. Con- tingents from Louistaua, Georgla, Pennsyl- vania, New Jersey, 'Connecticut, Rhode Island and Maine took short cruises of about a weel's duration on the Prairie, and the organizations of Ohio, Michigan and Hiinols made practice trips an the lakes aboard the Michigan. These cruises devel- oped a deal of energy, ability and zeal amon the officers and a like efficioncy, to gether with a high state of discipline, among the enlisted men, Lieutenant Commander Sutherland se orth an array of facts to make obvious the absolute necessity of a national naval s organizations, calling to the fact that particular attention this proposed innovation 1s not suggested with any view whatever of displacing the presont naval militia, The general government of the United States, says Commander Sutherland, has no direct control whatever over these naval militla bodles. They are state organiza- tions pure and stnple, organized under atate laws, and thus it s that in event of war each member is not under an obliga- tion to answer a call of the president for any naval service. Then, too, it is polnted out that an opponent in a possible war first-rate naval power, in striking contrast to our adversary of 1898, and that, there- tora, it behooves the Navy department to create some sort of reserve force, or- ganized under the provisions of federal law, and operating under the direct con- trol of the Navy department, ready at a moment's notice to reinforce the regular fighting strength of the navy. The status of thy naval reserve officer would be werl defined. He would hold a commission in the navy, signed by the president, and his name would be borne on the naval register. The primary, in fact the sole object of the first naval reserve, the report says, would be the manning of the fleet; the overflow, which would form the second re- serve, could be utilized by the Navy de- partment on many kinds of special duty. Captain C. H. Stockton, president of the Yaval War college, has submitted to the Navy department his annual report of the work of that pody during the year endea October 31 last. Vurious problems were dealt with, including naval tactics, naval reserve and war preparation of the per- sonnel, the question of the type of ship best suited for the navy, the preparation of war charts and other matters. CAUCUS WILL PASS UPON IT Draft of New War Revenue Bi Connldered by Members of to Be Republican oune, WASHINGTON, Nov. 80, — Chalrman Payne of the ways and means commiltee is- sued notices today recalling the previous notice of a full committee meeting tomor- Tow to consider the bill for the reduction of the war revenue. It was given out of- clally that this was done because General Qrosvenor and Mr. Tawney were absent at- tending the funeral of the late Secnator Davis and that Mr. ¥teele would mot be here, leaving the republicans short of a ma- Jority in the committee. Mr. Tawney did not go to Minuesota, however, and it was learned this afternoon that General Grosve- nor will arrive in Washington The real reason the committee will not meet tomorrow, It Is statad, is because further Information s desired as to the views of republican members generally In reference to this bill. Such featurcs of the measure | prepared by the republican members as have become known, together with omis- slons which the committee bas made in the proposed reductions, have caused consld- erable opposiifon and it Is probuble that a conferemce or caucus of the republican members will be held before a final decsion is_reached The greatest opposition that has developed comes from the brewing interests. Rep- tomorrow. @eveccecreccesncerececsees | resentatives from districts where there is ' reserve, in addition to the present militia | of the future may be a thoroughly equipped, | | | drowned’ 1 | acerued a great deal ot beer manufactured are mak- ing serious protests against the action of the committee in not reducing the tax on beer. There are some other interests also which are making protests and republican members of the house have telegraphed to thelr friends on the ways and means com- mittee that they think the proposed bill should be changed. The fact that the ma- fority In the present house Is only sixteen warns the republican managers that a bill must be supported by practically the entire republican membership in order to pass. If General Grosvenor arrives tomorrow It is possible that the republican members now in the city may make a request for a cau- cus, to be held early next week NEW BANK COMES TO NELIGH Authority Granted G.

WASHINGTON, Nov. 80.— It {s understood that the ministers at Pekin have not In- cluded in thelr preliminary agreement the proposition of Jupan that a monument be erected by China to the memory of the Japanose chancellor of legation, who was Killed at Pekin during the early stages of | the troubles. The idea of Japan appears to have been to have a special Chinese en- voy eppointed to convey an oMclal expres slon of China’s regret over this incident and also to provide a suitable memorial for the deceased. While there was no objec- | tion to the proposition itself, it seems to | have come so late in the deliberations that it was deemed advisable not to include it in the agreement.
