At Least It Is Hoped That An- other Issue Will Not Be Needed. INDUCEMENTS TO BANKERS, Uncle Sam Will Pay Express Charges if Coin Is Sent In for Currency. WASHINGTON, D, C., Nov. 23.—The administration to-day decided upon & plan to replenish the gold reserve, which, it is confidently expected, will have the effect of deferring for some time at least the i s for the purpose of strength- ld reserve. sent the was to sub-tre reject aud gold coins which are veight, are a i v 50 modified as sceep 3 such valu- rom the grain, troy, d weight of each 1 with the d act nes of con- er to have the e below the least guishing ma ScotT WY Tnited States Treasury Morgan followed this correspondence with instructions to s reasury oflicers to receive from banks and.others United States cold coin in ex- change for paper currency. Deposits are required to be made in sums or multi; of $500, and the express charges on the les gold coin and paper currency returned therefor will be borne by the Treasury De- partment. Except in special cases the treasury has never befcre paid express charges both ways on gold deposited in exchange for paper and on the paper. The banks have for years endeavored {o induce the treas. ury to do and the fact is that it has at last done so is evidence that Secretary Carlisle has determined, as the President has heretofore announced would be done, to exhaust all the means in his power to maintain the gold 1eserve. Itis not understood that this new de- parture will be permanent. It is looked upon as a temporary expedient to obtain gold. The expense to the bankers and others has a been large in seeuring i cases of redemption and z express charges on the returned S new temporary arrangement the treasury pay the charges heretofore borne by the bankers. The rate paid by the Government under its contract with the express companies, however, is less than the rate charged in- dividuals.

It will be the aim of the treasury to keep sub-treasuries supplied with all denomina- tions of currency, so that depositors may receive what they desire promptly. They will not have to wait until the cer- ate of the gold deposit is transferred to shington. Treasury officials explain that confining shipments to $500, or multiples thereof, is to keep within the terms of the contract with the express compani; ti WERE DETECTIVES EMPLOYED? Pinkerton Denies That He Had Any Deal- ings With Dunraven. NEW YORK, N. Y., Nov. 24.—The Re- corder this morning says: In Wall street yesterday a report was circulated from supposed trustworthy sources that Lord Dunraven has had Pinkerton detectives at work for a month and a half looking up evidence to support his allega- tion concerning the champion yacht De- fender and her owners. “Have you been employed by Lord Dunraven to try and get evidence in the Defender case?” Mr. Pinkerton was asked. “I do not know Dunraven and never met the gentleman, and consequently have no business relations with him; in fact we have never had,” was the reply. He declined to answer any questions as to his relations with Mr. Kersey, Dunra- ven’s representative. At the office of the White Star Steam- ship Company, of whfch Mr. Kersey is agent, it was said that Mr. Kersey was in Philadelpnia and would not return untii to-morrow morni Bl HENRY WIDMER DEAD. Close of the Career of the Well-Known Musical Direetor. NEW YORK, N. Y., Nov. 23.—Hen Widmer, leader of the orchestra at Daly's Theater, died from heart failure in a cab at the door of his residence at1 o'clock this morning. Widmer was the musical director some years ago of the Baldwin Theater of San Francisco. Widmer came to San Francisco with the old Hooley Company twenty years ago, his wife (Katie Mayhew) being the soubrette. He remained many months, taking an active interest in ali musical affairs. Later he was at the Baldwin, leaving there to ]‘ain Augustin Daly, whose orchestral eader he had been for some years. Wid- mer arranged the music for the Shake- spearean revivals at Daly’s, and wrote sev- eral orchestral numbers. He had just fin- ished a light opera. Ex-President Harrison’s Trip, NEW YORK, N. Y., Nov. 23.—Ex-Presi- dent Harrison left this morning on a brief visit to his daughter, Mrs. McKee, at Saratoga. He said he had nothing to say for publication.

CRYSTAL SPRINGS, Miss., Nov. 23.— About hali-past 8 o’clock a large and order- less mob overpowered the officers and took from them Jack Yarborough, a negro, and putting a rope around his neck they took The followingy him a short distance into the woods and banged him to atree. Thecrime for which Yarborough was lynched was the murder of J. O. Davis in 1892, who was killed while a gang of pegroes was robbing his house. Three negroes have previously been legally hanged for this crime. DISAPPEARANCE OF .A NOBLEMAN. Lost in the Wilds of America While Making a Journey Around the World on a Wager. CHICAGO, Irn, Nov. 23.—“Le Voy- ageur,”” Roland Desvarennes, the French nobleman who was in Chicago on his trip around the world on a wager during the first week in August, and left here about August W for Denver, via the Rock Island, appeared. His friends in Chieago are greatly agitated over the whereabouts of Desvarennes, and have called upon the French Consul, seeking information re- garding the man. Roland Desvarennes is an assumad name of the French nobleman. IHis true identity is not known further than that ne was a member of a well-known Parisian club, and was making a tour around the world on a wager, He was a man of means and his income is reported to be $100,000 a year. The novel trip of this French nobleman came about as a result of a discussion in a Parisian club on the evening of June 18, in which this man and another clubman were discussing the voyage of two newspaper men around the world without a cent of money. This nobleman declared that this was no trick and that he himself could do it and not touch a cent of his'income. He would live on what he could make on his tour, and counld complete his trip around the world and be at his Parisian club on the evening of June 19, 1897, just two years after he had started. This resulted ina wager that it could not be accomplished, and the nobleman, assuming the name of “Le Voyageur,’’ started out. ELEVATION. OF SATOLLL, Cardinal Gibbons Talks of the Plans for the Great Ceremony. The Pope’s Ablegate Will Cease to Hold His Present Place After Dr. Sbaretti Arrives. BALTIMORE, Mp., Nov. 23.—Cardinal Gibbons to-day stated that the consistory at which the elevation of Monsignor Satolii tg the Cardinalate will be officially pro- mulgated, will assemble in Rome next Monday. In an interview the Cardinal said: “Mgr. Satolli has arranged to have the ceremonies incident to his elevation take place n the cathedral in this city on Sun- day, December 15, beginning at 10:30 A. M. I bave understood that his Grace the Archbishop of St. Louis (Kain) has been requested and bas consented to preach the sermon upon this oceasion. The mass will be celebrated by Mgr. Satolli, and I will have the honor of conferring the beretta. “The invitations to the ceremony are now being printed after a formula used upon the oceasion of my own elevation to the Cardinalate, which I furnished to Mgr. Satolli at his request. The invitations upon these occasions are always extended personally by the person whose additional dignity is the occasion of the gatbering. They will doubtless be sent to all the pre- lates of the country with whom, from time to time, Mgr. Satolli has been brought into official and personal relations. Just how many of them, or what other specially invited guests will attend the ceremony, cannot be definitely known, however, until the acceptances have been received, which will probanly be between the 8th and 10th of December. Immedi- ately after the announcement is made in the consistory on Monday the Noble Guard designated by the Holy Father to be the bearer of the beretta under Zu- chetto will leave Rome for Washington. No further details of the ceremony will be arranged until after his arrival. Itcan be said, however, that in all essential particu- lars the ceremony will be similar to that upon the occasion of my own elevation.” Iu reference to the changed relations of Mgr. Satolli to the Holy See by reason ot his elevation to the Cardinalate, Car- dinal Gibbons that the Monsignor would cease to bear his present title of Pope’s Ablegate, and that this title had already been transferred to Dr, Sbaretti, a member of Mgr. Satolli's household. Mgr. Satolli would, however, continue to discharge the duties of the Pope’s official representative in this countrvy uatil he went to Rome next summer to complete the ceremony of his investiture by receiving the red hat at the hands of the Holy Father and is given a church at Rome, a beuefit every Cardinal enjoys. Onhis accessionto the Cardinalate he will become pro-dele- gate, bur in abeyance of the appointment of a successor, Dr. Sbarretti temporarily holding the title, the Monsignor wiil con- tinue to discharge the duties. Mgr. Satolli for the present will draw no salary on account of his added dignity. Only those Cardinals who reside in Rome and are occupied in the general govern- ment of the church are paid for their ser- vices. = SATISFIED TO BE SINGLE. Senator Hill Swmiles at the Rumor That He Is to Marry. NEW YORK, N. Y., Nov. 23.—A Journal special from Albany says: A story in Washington that Senator Hill was about to get married has reached here and is a subject of talk among the ex-Governor's acquaintances. They have heard the same story so many times, however, that they were not ready to believe it this time. This is what the Senstor ssid about it: “So thev have married me off again, have they? All there is to it is that [ am tired of living at a hotel. T have rented a pleas- ant house in Washington, and I shall close up Wolfert's Roost and take all my people from here down there during the coming season. 1 expect to find it pleasanter than hotel life.” —_——— AFTER A TWO YEARS WAR. Chicago Brewers Have Combined Under One Company. CHICAGO, InL., Nov. 23.—After a two years’ war the Chicago brewery-owners have formed a company, which includes sixty-three breweries, and only one brewery of 20,000 barrels’ yearly capacity is on the outside. The interests chiefly concerned are those of the City of Chicago Brewing and Malting Company, the British syndicated concarn and the Mil- waukee and Chicago Brewing and Malting Company. A penalty rund of $600,000 is said to have been subscribed, and the cif has been divided into_territories for eac! brewery. The price of beer is expected to advance to0 $5 immediately. i Defeated by the Rebels. LONDON, Exc., Nov. 23.—A dispatch from 8hanghai states that a Chinese army under General Tang Fuh Siarg, which was sent to subdue the i(msn rebels, has been utterly defeated at Hsian. The rebels are now masters of half the province of Kansu. PACIFIC ~ RAILROADS, Huntington's Man Friday Mixing With Members- Elect. THURSTON'S NEW IDEA. He Will Offer a Bill at the Meet- ing of Congress to Please the Union Pacific. WOULD PROVIDE A PURCHASER. The Claim to Include All the Rights of the Government Against the Property. WASHINGTON, D.C., Nov. 23.—John Boyd, lobbyist and man Friday of Hunt- ington, is again circulating around the hotel lobbies, mingling with the members- elect and talking up the funding bill. The chairmanship of the Pacific Railroads Committee is said to lie between Smith of Illinois, Powers of Vermont and Hepburn of Towa. Smith is rather an obscure member and a poet. Hepburn, though baving served formerly, has not enjoved continuous service, therefore Powers is thought to stand the best chance. Senator Thurston says he will offer a bill when Congress meets to carry the ideas of the Union Pacific directors. He is very careful to say, however, that he has not consulted with any railroad magnates and does not know whetber they would bid for the Union and Central Pacific, offered at public sale. Thurston said to-night: I think the Pacific line from the Mis- souri River to San Jose was intended by the Government to constitute, for all prac- tical purposes, one continuous line, to be operated as such without any division at Ogden or elsewhere whereby one part could cause any injury or destruction to | the other by diverting its freight under through arrangements with other lines. “With a view of restoring the through line to the condition contemplated by the | original act, my idea is for the Govern-| ment to ascertain what the entire indebt- | edness of that through line to Government will be on July 1 next. That would be as- certained by taking the amount paid by | the Government and deducting from it | the Goverament's credits for transporta- | tion and amount in sinking funds. | “Then let the Secretary offer that claim as one claim, to be sold to the purchaser as one claim and sold to the highest bidder, who will offer, say 50 per cent of the en-| tire amount. Perhaps it might be well to | put the minimum at 40 per cent so as to insure a sale. I think it is certain that a public offer | of this sort would arouse such competi- tion among the great railroad interests of | the country that the Government would | obtain certainly all that its claim is or can | be worth, or that could be made out of any forced sale of property, or ‘through any other disposition of it. This in view of the fact that there is a very large first mortgage ahead of the Government's claim on the entireline. “My plan is to provide that the pur- chaser of this Government claim shall take all the rights of the Government against the property, including its lien, | its right of entry and of foreclosure. Also, | that some one court of the United States, presnmably the Nebraska District, should have complete jurisdiction to entertain and carry forward foreclosure proceedings | of that claim by purchaser, as against the | entire property, so that the foreclosure suif, could be commenced and carried through and the property sold under pro- | cedure in one court without complicating |* the proceedings by seven or eight suits in separate Unites States courts. “Then to provide that sale should be made on foreclosure proceedings, to a com- | mittee of trustees not less than ten in num- | ber, and their names should be returned to | the court, with their report on the order of | sale. | “This measure shonld provide that the | committee of purchasers, together with | five commissioners nominated by the | President, should constitute a corporation | in the same manner as the original ip- | dividusls and the Government commis- | sioners were named a corporation under | the original Pacific Railroad act. | “These individuals should be given the | right to organize and perfect a corporate | body under the name of the Union and | Central Pacific Railroad Company, and | we should confer upon that corporation all powers, rights, franchises and corre- sponding liabilities and obligations of the two companies under the original act of Congress. “The result of this plan would be that the Government would receive, almost at once in cash, whatever its second lien against the properties is fairly worth in the market under competitive bidding. It would result in speedy foreclosure and re- organization of two railroad lines asone corporation, and, best of all, in the final settlement of the question that has been vexing the Western people for so many years. The Government, under my plan, would receive as a minimum amount about 40 or 50 per cent.”’ STORM IN WYOMING. Railroad Traffic Delayed and Cars and Howses Demolished. CHEYENNE, Wvo., Nov. 23.—A storm | did considerable damage to railroads this | morning. Traffic was seriously delayed. The overland train was four hours late and ail trains are reported behind time into Ogden. The storm caused the practical abandonment of all freight trains on the Union Paatic. Reports are coming in of roofs blown off and freightcars blown from the tracks, as well as small buildings along the line being blown down. 1t is thought the storm is over and that trains will be running on time to-morrow morning. Sl Last of the Victims Recovered. CHICAGO, ItL., Nov.23.—The body of Joseph Prendergast, the fourth and last of the firemen killed in the Woolen Ex- change fire of yesterday, was taken from the ruins of the building between 7 and 8 o'clock to-night. He had fallen flat upon his face and the many tons of tiling, floor- ing and timbers had crushed him in a ter- tible manner. Sl England and Brazil. NEW YORK, N. Y., Nov. 23.—The Herald's special cable from Buenos Ayres says: The invasion of Brazilian terrjtory near the Venezuelan boundary line by British officiais is fully confirmed by late news from Para. The Herald’s correspondent in Rio Janeiro telegraphs to-day: The Brmtish WHITELA Minister in Brazil has presented to the Government England’s formal proposal and plan for the arbitration of the ques- tion of ownership in Trinidad. e S FIREWATER AT A MEDICINE DANCE. Chickasaw Indians Engaged in. a General Fight and Three Persons Were Shot. WICHITA, Kax., Nov. 23.—The Chicka- saw Indians held a medicine dance.near Tishomingo, the former capital of the Chickasaw nation, in the Indian Territory, last night, which resulted in a tragedy. Hundreds of redskins collected at Silas Russell’s place, on the Washita River, the dance having been secretly planned weeks ahead. Whisky peddlers eluded the Gov- ernment officers and bronght in large quantities of firewater. The Indians be- came very noisy and quarelsome, and just after midnight engaged in a free fight with bottles, clubs and guns. Women as well as men were mixed up in the melee, and when all the firearms had been emptied, and the smoke had cleared away, it was found that an Indian girl had been fatally shot and two men dangerously wounded\ Extraordinary precautions will be taken to guard against a repetition of the medi- cine dance, i i ENRAGED BY REFUSAL. 4 Rejected Suitor Shoots His Sweetheart and Cuts His Own Throat. AMSTERDAM, N. Y., Nov. 23.—The people of this community were horror- stricken this morning by a tragedy that will undoubtedly end the lives of two per- sons. Fred Banker, aged 25, has for some time been very attentive to Miss Cora Har- rison, about six years his junior. He was very much in love with her, but she did not reciprocate. When he proposed mar- riage to her she refused him. This refusal made him extremely angry, but it was not thought that he would do anything violent. This morning, how- ever, he appeared at the door of Miss Har- rison’s residence and said that he wished to see her. As she approached him. he suddenly drew a knife and tried to cut her throat. In trying to save herself she knocked the knife from his hand. He thereupon drew a revolver and fired two bullets into the girl. She fell to the ground, and he, evidently thinking that he had killed her, picked up the knife that he had previously dropped and drew it across his throat, in- flicting a ghastly wound. Both Banker and Miss Harrison are still alive, but the doctors say that neither can live. | BEIS VWS Sound Financial Protection Poli- cies in the Republican Platform. . The New York Editor Has Not the Slightest Idea About the Presi- dential Race. KANSAS CITY, Mo., Nov. 23.—White- law Reid, editor of the New York Tribune and in 1892 Republican nominee for the Vice-Presidency, was in the city for half an hour yesterday. He arrived from the East, accompanied by his wife, in the spe- cial car Grassmere, at 1 o'clock, and | left over the Santa Fe at o’clock for Arizona, his physicians having advised bim to pass the winter in a dryer chimate. Asked by a United Press reporter about the political outlook for 1896 he replied that any one could readily and correctly guess what he thought. It was quite another matter whom he thought would be nominated. It was a very difficult thing, he said, for any human being to tell what a great National convention would do be- forehand. He did not even know whether it was altogether probable that the next Republican nominee would be chosen from among those now most prominently mentioned. He thought safe and sound financial protection policies would be mentioned in the platform. ““Whoever the nominee is he will be elected,” said Mr. Reid finally. ‘‘The tide isin our direction. Iam given to under- stand that even Missouri can almost be counted on. The Republican party in Missouri, I understand, hss grown very strong. The Republican party has cer- tainly some splendid men in tha# State.” Called from glittering generalities was Mr. Reid by the next question. To what did he ascribe the sudden change of senti- ment in New York City as shown by the last election, in which Tammany again came to the surface? ‘‘Only to one thing,” said he, ‘“‘our forces did not stand together. That alone caused our defeat. There was disaffection among a portion of our German-American citizens and good government clubs.” Mr. Reid said nothing aboutblue laws or sumptuary legisiation as causes, but said: “I can’t understand why there should have been any disaffection whatever among the good government clubs.’” ‘‘Are elections in New York City fairly conducted ?" I see you have had considerable trouble in that respect here,” he answered. ‘“In reply to your question touching New York City, I will say they generally are, but | sometimes—'" Here the car began to move and the interview terminated. -— FANNED BY A BLIZZARD. Sweep of a Praivie Fire on the Seminole Reservation. ST. LOUIS, Mo., Nov. 23.—A special from Guthrie, 0. T., says that a disastrous prairie fire has been raging in Pottawatto- mie County and in the Seminole reserva- tion for three days, sweeping scores of farms, crops and buildings, and a terrific blizzard from the north this morning is fanning the flames in fiery torrent, sweep- ing everything before it. Horses and cat- tle are being caught and burned to deati and if the wind continues many lives will be lost. ———— Hanlan the Winner. GALVESTON, Tex., Nov. 28.—The final heat in the sculling match between Han- lon and Bubear was witnessed to-day by a small but enthusiastic crowd, who cheered as Hanlan brought himself in a winner.

FIXNG THE SENATE, Two Chairs Added for the Expected Arrivals From Utah. REPUBLICANS SANGUINE Third Party Members Said to Be Necessary to Speedy Re- organization. NO BARGAIN WITH POPULISTS. It May Be Necessary to Await the Admission of Cannon, Trumbo and Dupont. WASHINGTON, D. C., Nov. 23.-~The sergeant-at-arms of the Senate has added two chairs in the Senate chamber to ac- commodate the expected arrivals from Utah. They are in the back row, to the left of the President of the Senate. The Utah Senators will have as neighbors in this row Tom Carter of Montana, Wil- son of Washington, Warren of Wyoming, Knute Nelson of Minnesota, Steve Elkins of West Virgiuia, Irby (Pop.) of North Carolina. Fred Dubois of Idaho, who has been seated in this row, is promoted and will occupy a seat on the middle aisle nearer the front, vacated by Senator Dolph of Oregon. Frank Cannon of the Utah delegation is now in New York at the Plaza Hotel, but will be here on the 28th inst. The Democratic Senators are just as much at sea as are their Republican breth- ren concerning the reorganization of the Senate. One thing is established and that is that the Populists can either make or prevent a reorganization. If they cast their votes with the Republicansa reor- ganization can be effected at ance. The Repubiican Senators are divided in sentimen? as to whether it would inure to their benefit to reorganize with the assist- ance of the Populists. The Western Senators, or at least those young and breezy men who come from the Far West, are practically a unit in favor of re- organization. To-day there are not a dozen Republican Senators in the city. Of these at least six are out-and-out in favor of reorganization, while two oppose it and the other four are playing a waiting game, preferring to hold off until the Utah Senators and Colonel Dupont, the claimant for a seat from Delaware, are admitted. The Utah men to be elected in January will have no contest on their hands, but their two votes would not make a majority of Republican Senators over all. Colonel Dupont’s status will probably not be known until afzer the holidays, as bis case will in all probability go to the Elections Com- mittee and there be decided on its merits. The recent meeting of the Democratic steering committee of the Senate brought out the fact of a division of opinion as to advisability of making a tight against Re- publican organization. Some advocated making a stiff fight to retain Democratic control, while others advised a surrender to the Republicans without a struggle. No definite action will be recommended by the steering committee to their Democratic colleagues until it is ascertained what the Republicans will attempt to do. A Re- publican of high standing said to-day that the Republicans can settle in two hours after the meeting of Congress next Mon- day week the guestion of the reorganiza- tion of the Senate. He said the plan would be to go into caucus without any bargaining with the Populists, nominate a full set of Republican officers from the president pro tem. down, submit the list to the Senate, and if they can get votes enough so well and so good. “If we fail,” he continued, ‘“‘we can try again when the Utah men and the Dela- ware Senators are admitted.” The belief is very general here that Frank Cannon will be one of the Utah Senators and the contest for the other will de between Colonel Isaac Trumbo and Judge Bennett of Salt Lake. Colonel Trumbo is well known among Senators, and those from the Far West who know something of Utah affairs believe that as between Editor Goodwin of the Tribune, who has always been unfavorable to the Mormon people, and Colonel Trumbo, who has always bad their respect, the latter will have the best chance with Bennett as as his vrincipal opponent.

Labor Men Paraded the Streets and Listened to a Speech From Their Leader. TERRE HAUTE, I~p., Nov. 23.—The weather to-night coutd hardly have been worse for the home reception of Eugene V. Debs. But in spite of the cold rain that fell and the muddy streets the demonstra- tion was a notable one. Mr. Debs arrived at 6:45 o’clock by way of Indianapolis over the Vandalia line. The union depot was crowded with repre- sentatives of the labor unions and delega- tions of miners and laborers from sur- ronnding towns. ‘When Mr. Debs stépped out on the plat- | form there was prolonged cheerings. He was carried on the shoulders of men through the Union station and into the open space in front of the depot, where he entered a carriage and was driven to his home. A band, heading the large crowd that followed, played “Home, Sweet Home” the entire distance. Notwithstanding the rain there wasa large parade of laboring men to-night. Mr. Debs spoke at the Armory, which was packed to overflowing. The appearance of Mr. Debs on the stand was ‘a signal for uproarious appleuse, which lasted for several minutes. He was plainly moved by the heartiness of the welcome and it was evident that he was as popular as ever with the labor unions. RHis speech was in line with his Chicago ad- dress of 1ast night. “On the Go” Are 3 Little Words Fittingly describing the sales of the new Combination Electric-Fluid Belts. for §1 75 at JOY'S BALDWIN PHARMACY, “On the Go.” On the Chest. | For protedtion from cold winds flannel and chamois are usually used.
