New York, Dec. 17.—The withdrawa! to-day of $3,150,000 in gold for shipment leaves the Treasury reserve at $72,804,- 766. President Cleveland, seeing that a bond issue must come, has been in personal consultation with members of the syndicate which advised and man- aged the last issue, according to the World this morning. The details of a plan for the issue Were partially agreed upon, and it is understocd that the President will or- der the issue as soon as the reserve strikes the $60,000,000 mark. The issue will be for at least $50,000,000, possibly $100,000,000. The syndicate will not agree again to try to protect the Treas- ury reserve by controlling the exchange rate. It is the general feeling that to-day’s shipment will be the last for some time, but it is thought that the President’s mark of $60,000,000 will be reached in the first fortnight of the new year when the bond issue may be expected A great deal of money will come into the market on January 1 as interest payments. That will make rates eas- ier until the money is absorbed in in vestment. But as soon as busines: gets fairly started in the new year gold shipments are likely to be resum- ed, particularly as a sharp demand fo; gold in Russia is expected. A JOKE ON SENJR DE LOME. Salts, Dust and Ashes Filled His Infernal Machine. Washington, Dec. 17.—A servant be- longing to the household of Senor Dupuy de Lome, the Spanish Minister found on the doorstep Sunday morning a mysterious box, from one end o! which protruded a partly burned fuse, The servant slammed the door and fied inside. The police were notified. Sergt. Harbison came and inspected the box at long range. Then he approached nearer and gained confidence. Finally he picked it up, contemptuously stuck it under his arm and lugged it cown to headquarters. It was an ordinary pasteboard box, in which flowers had been sent to some customer from a local florist. Inside was a grayish substance. The District chemist, to whom this was given for examination, said it was a cheap grade of salts of ammonia mixed with coal dust and ashes. At the bottom of the box were three pieces of zinc from a worn-out cell battery, fastened together with wire. The fuse was a piece of rolied-up paper. On the box was writ- ten: “Cuban freedom—Christmas greet- ing to Senor De Lome.” WITH ROYAL SPLENDOR. Over $100,000 Expended on the Gontard- Busch Wedding in St. Louis, St. Louis, Dec. 17. — Clara Hazel Busch, daughter of Adolphus Busch, the brewer, and Paul von Gontard, head of a big iron fountry in West- phalia, were married in the Church of the Messiah last evening. It was one of the most sumptuous weddings ever recorded in this land. The Church of the Messiah is an im- mense edifice, but all its vast interior was hidden under thousands and thou- sands of dollars’ worth of white roses, lillies of the valley and hyacinths, the whole producing ean effect of dazzling whiteness, An entire floor of the Southern Hotel, where the reception took place after the wedding, had been repainted, redecorated, regilded and re- furnished with new carpets and furni- ture of special design for the wedding guests, who had come from Europe at the invitation and the expense of the bride’s parents. The affair must have cost over $100,000. Bs Ridden on a Rail. Brookline, N. H., Dec. 17. — Sumner Burgess was decoyed from his house by Whitecaps last Monday and ridden on a rail some distance out of town and subjected to other indignities. Yester- day four of his assailants, whom he had recognized, paid fines of $10 each for their fun. They were Charles Wilkens, Frank Melendy, Arthur Bushad and Oscar Elliott. All of these, as well as Burgess, are church members. Burgess recently sought separation from his wife, and since then, it is said, has been paying attentions to a woman in a neighboring town. The townspeople are divided on the affair, some believ- ing that Burgess got no more than he deserved, while others say the White- cappers should be put down. ———— SSS pnother Sugar Company.
