TAKI.Nfi TI1E OATH.

WAMiiN'tiTON, Iilarch S.—The induction into oilice of tho members of l'resiileut Clcvclumi's uabinct, save Secretary tuosham, wiio was sworn in Momlar, was mi bi.sloric event at the state department ju.it before noon. For tiie first time in the history of the K'overnment Hie beads of tbo departments assembled in the diplomatic: parlor nnd together took the oath of olilce. On the occasion of Mr. Cleveland's first inauguration, al' the cabinet officers assembled .at the Arlington hotel, und, accompanied by Associate Justice Field, the only democratic justice then on the supreme bench, drove to each executive department in turn, beginning with the state department.

There were present to witness the ceremony about fifty spectators. The new cabinet ollieers grouped themselves abont the table at the cast end of the parlor, Justice Field nnd .Secretary Ciresham at the head. The venerable jurist then calling the secretaries to his left hand, in turn administered the statutory oath which lie read without glasses to Messrs. Carlisle, Lamont, Smith Herbert Oluey, Hissell and Morton, and each signed. The Kible used was a new one procurred for the occasion. The ceremony being onded, a few minutes spent in exchanging salutations and making introductions of the strangers to one another und then the new secretaries departed for their several departments to enter upon the discharge of their duties.

In Carlislo's Chitr*j'«

Secretary Carlisle, when he assumed charge of the treasury department,had on hand Sl,~"0,000 of free gold and a net balance of $25,500,000, of which SI 1,500, 000 is in national bank depositories and SI 1.000,000 in subsidfary coin, and i-."00,000 in minor coins.

Their First Council.

WASHINGTON', March 8.—President Cleveland called together his new cabinew for the first time Tuesday afternoon. It had been intended to hold the first meeting this morning but, owing to the pressing condition of affairs in the treasury department and tc the further fact that three.'distinetdc'.egntions—each claiming to represent

Hawaii—were to descend upon the Capitol to-day, it was decided to advance the meeting to Tuesday afternoon at o'clock.

There was no formality or ceremony observed in opening the meeting. The •session was devoted to a discussion ol matters of current public importance, including Hawaiian annexation and the financial situation. The greater part of the time was taken up, however, with a consideration of the question of -appointments, particularly those of assistants to tlie various cabinet officers. The necessity for filling these positions without delay was taken as a self-evident fact, but Mr. Cleveland impressed upon his oftieia! family the necessity of going slowly in making selections.

Will Hear Uotli Miles.

WASHINGTON, March S.—While it is not certain what President Cleveland wiil do in tho matter of appointing a commission to visit Hawaii before acting on the annexation question one decision has been reached, and that is that the commissioners and the representatives of tho dethroned queen and of the heir apparent shall all be heard before action of any kind is taken. Secretary Uresliam said that the matter would bo giveu the serious consideration its importance demanded, but declined to even intimate what the course of procedure would likely be. One of the first questions to be considered by the cabinet is as to the course to be pursued in regard to the American Hag now Hying over Hawaii. If the action of the past administration is not to be upheld then this flag should have to come down and instructions to that effect sent to Mr. Stevens. This is one of the points which, it is understood, would bo decided at the first cabinet meeting.

Democrats Hntd-ii t'nupiiH.

The democratic caucus which met in the senate chamber Tuesday morning was well attended, .lust what course the democrats intended to pursue toward the populists has been a matter of interesting conjecture since it w:is known that the democrats a clear majority of their own. The notion indicates that these populist senators are to be ignore!. Senators Kyle (S. D.) and 1'elYer (Kan.) populists, and Senator Allen, the new populist clected by Nebraska, \vere not invited to attend the caucus, and to this extent, al least, it would seem that they have been purposely ueglected. Senator Martin's case was, however, different. Senator Martin (Kan.), although elected by fusion votes, is considered a democrat, and as such was invited by Senator Gorman to attend the caucus, and he was present and participated in the proceedings. Sena.tor Allen, it is understood, will vote with the democrats when it comes to the organization.

The caucus organized by reelecting Senator Gorman chairman and Senator Faulkner secretary. The session lasted four hours, the only actual business transacted being to authorize the chairman to appoint a committco to devise a plan for reorganization and report to the caucus upon the call of the chair-man.-"'s

C)|poR*»fl to Appointees.

Much of the time was consumed in a

Montana. Speeches were made, by Senators Voorhees, Vilas, Daniel and others. A spirit of opposition against seating these appointees was manifested. Thu claim was made that inasmuch as the legislatures of these states had not exercised the prerogative belonging to them, the governor had no authority to fill the places and tho states should remain unrepresented. A precedent for such action was cited from an early California case. It was finally decided, however, that these matters, together with the case of Senator Martin, should be referred to the committee on privileges and elections.

THE BOND QUESTION.

Will the New Administration dor an Issue?

Or-

AMOUNT OF FREE GOLD VERY SMALL,

Th* Fiuaurlal Problem Which Confronts Mr. Carlisle Difficult to Solve—Mr. Foster Tlilnka tho Bond*

Will lie Issued.

A PtrzZI.ING

ilTESTIO.V.

WASHINGTON, March 8.—Mr. Cleveland's administration will give a sign shortly whether it proposes to issue bonds or not. The gold reserve in the treasury is now about 5102.000,000. During his former administration Mr. Cleveland held that the hundred million was a sacred reserve—not to be touched under any circumstances. If he stands by this position, nnd it Is intimated that ho will, there is nothing ahead except to issue bonds or to demand payment of customs duties in gold. The utterances of his inaugural address were takeu to mean that lie would issue bonds.

Short on Free Gold.

When Mr. Foster turned over his office to Mr. Carlisle Tuesday there was in the treasury of free gold—that is, of gold above the legal reserve of S100,000,000—only SI,250,000. As this narrow margin is likely to be wiped out almost immediately by tho exportation of gold already engaged or about to be engaged for shipment, it is possible that Secretary Carlisle will be compelled, perhaps within a day or two, to mako an issue of bouds. lie will have the less difficulty in doing this because it is an open secret that ex-Secretary Foster, anticipating the situation which now confronts his successor, weeks ago had the bonds printed ready for issuance, and 550,000,000 of the prospective bonds had been practically engaged by Loudon bankers.

Confidence In Carlisle.

Mr. Fosler, after he had ceased to be secretary of the treasury, expressed the utmost confidence in Mr. Carlisle's ability to put himself in a position to meet all demands for gold. Without saying it in so many words, he intimated that Mr. Carlisle would have to trench upon the 8100,000,000 gold reserve or else issue bonds. When asked if he did not think bonds would have to be issued he replied that Mr. Carlisle might instead of that use some of the reserve, lie did not want to make any predictions as to what his successor would do, but he was confident that he would be able by some means to. preserve the goid basis by meetinsr all demands for gold made upon the department. He said that Mr. Carlisle undoubtedly had a right to use a part of the gold reserve if he iieeded to do •s.o. Besides the gold reserve. Mr.

Foster said, he would turn over to the new secretary about $'J9,000,000, consisting of national bank reserve and subsidiary coins and disbursing ottieers' balances. Against this are all the outstanding drafts, covering most of it, but not liable to be presented for payment at once.

Foster Would Tax Whisky Mor*. "Congress," he said, "should have increased the whisky tax fifty cents and given us a chance to replenish our stock of money. The fact is," he added, "that the demand for gold is perfectly regular. It is not speculative. It is tiie natural demand, foreign countries needing the gold. Tho only thing artificial or speculative in the situation was the eitort made to keep the gold here. Our bankers borrowed $10,000,000 of gold to keep it here. That, of course, was to keep the market steady and not to meet business demands. However, as there is nearly $500,000,000 of gold in this country the public mind is comparatively easy and I have no doubt that Mr. Carlisle will be able to put himself in a position to meet all demands for gold."

More (old Shipment*.

NEW YORK, March b.—The shipments of gold by Tuesday's steamer aggregate Sa-,H00,000. In spite of tho tight money arrangements are in progress to export S'J,000,000 more by Saturday's steamer and $1,000,000 next Tuesday.

Many of the banking institutions and individual capitalists marked up their loans Tuesday. At one time oneeighth per cent, per diem, in addition to the legal interest of 0 per cent, per annum, was paid by borrowers. This means that some stock exchange borrowers had to pay at the rate of 52 per cent, per annum. Some refused to stand the "shave" and liquidated their stock accounts, which added to the bearish feeling. The street is looking to Washington for relief, and the daily rumor that the government would shortly invite bids for the sale of $50,000,000 bonds was revived.

SHOT DOWN BY TROOPS.

Ten Servian Peasant* Killed and Seveu Wounded In a Political I'pritfing, VIENNA, March 8.—A serious conflict has occurred between troops and peasantry at Gonashitza, Servia. The peasants Appear to have risen against the authorities on account of political agitation and troops were summoned to suppress the disorder. The peasants seized the principal building and offered an obstinate resistance to the soldiers, who only succeeded after a desperate struggle in driving the peasantry from tho building. Ten of the peasants were killed and seven wounded, in the fight.

Fir« Loss for February.

NEW YORK, March 8.—Tho Commercial Bulletin says: "The Sre loss of the United States and Canada for February amounts to 10,919,900, being about 82,000,000 less than the total for February, 1892."

Fratornal Sooiotleii in Illinois Are Seared by a Bill.

A MENACE TO THEIR EXISTENCE.

A Measure on Iho I'olnr of Pannage by the nre WhK'h Is Calculated to Drive Thnm Out ol the State.

A

RX1T1ES IN I'L-IUL.

IMCAUO. Marc!" S. —Jf senate bill No. 100,-lutrorfuced the senate by C. Porter Johnson, of Chicago, ever becomes a law, it. v?ill wipe out of existence in this stale every association of fratornal organization whose excuse for existence is the life insurance of members and the paying of money to the widows and orphans. Mr. Jonsou'a bill was introduced January

lJ5,

and after being read

was ordered printed and referred to the committee on insurance. This committee found nothing objectionable in the bill and it was ordered to a second reading without an amepdraeut, and now comes up for final, or third reading.

ItH Victims.

Mr. Johnson's bill is so comprehensive in its nature that no orgrnization can possi\l.V escape the provisions of tho act. Officials of such orders as the Koyal Arcanum, Royal league, National Union, Forresters, and Knights and Ladies of Honor are excitedly discussing the obnoxious bill, the provisions of which and their effects are suiHeiently explained in the following interviews.

An Infamous Meanure.

Supreme Scribe C. A. Warren, of the Royal League, is very bitter against the bill, fie said: "It's an Infamous measure, calculated to seriously injure the fraternal and benettt societies, it hit* ut all of us. The provision requiring us to swear to the value of our certiflcaieH i# absurd. Our certillcates aro not negotiable as commercial paper—are practically valueless until the holder dies. If we were put oji the stand and asked to swear to tho value of a certlllcnte we would have to say that it was worth nothing, and of course this can be uned apainst us. I shall leave for Springfield at onco and will get there in time to aid in the fight against its passage. Many of the legislators belong to our order, speaker Crafts himscif is a member aud many others whom 1 can mention. We huvo lots of friends ,down there and we shall defeat that bill/'

More Opposition.

Daniel J. Avery, president of the Northwestern MasonicAid association which has a membership of 40,000, was emphatic in his condemnation of Mr. Johnson's bill.

Supreme Archon R. S. lies, of the Royal Lcrgue, who is a lawyer, said: "The roat objection to the bill is In the seccnl section, where It provides* that the answers of applicants shall not be warranty*, hut representations. This prevents the fraternities from protecting themselves against imposition:*. There ai*5 many prrynns afflicted with disease who can yet pass medical examination. If we find they have deceived us wo can now proceed against them, UH their auswera are warrantyH. Under the now law we oould not, as their auswers would be merely representa

"Tne second section is intended to deceive. It makes a promise of security by providing that the funds of the association may be in vested in various securities. This is no projection. The directors might invest in euritics which, if bud. would still have the apparent sanction of law. As to tho real estate clause, that is absurd, as no business man would loan on mil estate which was not worth at least f0 per cent, more than the value of the loan.'

The requiring of a reserve might apply well enough to the insurance companies on the old-line plan or regular reserve plan, but. would wreck every fraternal benetit association in the stale as at present run. They would have to change their whole system as it would bo impossible for them to tin business on their present basis. Then, again tho bill takes entire management out of the hands of the members ami requires them to irausact the business by arbitrary rules, which defeat every object of such associations."

Societies In Danger.

The fraternal societies whose existence is threatened by tlie billcare as follows:

American T.egion of Honor: Ancient Order of Foresters of America Ancient Order of United Workmen: Select Knights of America Benevolent Protective Order of Klks UrltlshAmericau Association of the United States Grand Array of the Kepublic Improved Order of Red Men Independent Order of Korosters lndepoudent Order of the Free Suns of Israel Independent Order of Knights and Ladies of Honor.

What •Johiiftou Says.

SPRINOFIKLP, 111., March 8.—Several of the senators have received petitions from constituents representing fraternal and assessment insurance organizations protesting against the Johnson bill. The bill in the house is before the insurance committee and is known as the Mclnerney bill. At a meeting of the house committee Tuesday noon it was referred to a subcommittee which has not been named. This was done at the request of Mr. Me Inerney, who said it was the intention to amend the measure in tho senate. Senator Johnson indignantly replied when told it was claimed the "bill had been introduced for sand-bagging pur poses and was in the interest of the old-line companies that it was not so. lie added: "The principal object of the measure is to make the old-line companies show tholr assets In order that their reliability may bo known. 1 is my purpose to aak that the bill be recalled
