Something Opened Besides the Canal

last May, Queen Victoria visited Manchester for thiei hours to open the new ship canal. The bills lor the celebration, amounting to 150 0t;0, are being now investigated. Among the items is one of $.,000 for badges for the City Council. At the banquet they ate strawberries at 51.40 a pound, asparagus at $1 a bunch and pineapp'es at $3 apiece. It cost sllO to look after the Queen’s horses and carriages. The auditor reported that it looked as though something else had opened besides the canal. The strength of a horse is equal on an average to that of seven and a half men.

UNCLE SAM’S CASH BOX

TREASURER MORGAN SUBMITS HIS ANNUAL REPORT. Total Fiscal Receipts on All Accounts Were $724,006,539 and the Total Expenditures s69B,9o9,ss2—lnsufficient Revenues Impair Gold Reserve. Bond Issue a Necessity. The Treasurer of the United States, Hon. H. D. Morgan, has submitted to Secretary Carlisle the annual report of the operations and condition of the treasury. The net ordinary revenues for the fiscal year ending June 30, cents omitted, were, $297,722,019, a decrease of $88,097,609 as compared with the year before. The net‘ordinary expenditures were $367,525,279, a decrease of $15,952,674. The total receipts on all accounts were $724,006,538, and the expenditures $698,908,552. At the close of business on June 30, 1893, there stood on the books of the department charged to the treasurer a balance of $738,467,555. Adding to this receipts on all accounts gives $1,462,474,093 as total to be accounted for, and deducting the expenditures leaves a balance of $763,565,540 on June 30, 1894. In addition to these balances, however, there were other liabilities, arising from the postal revenues, from disbursing officers and from other sources, which brought the total to $776,041,808 at the former date, and to $804,854,753 at the latter. After setting aside the amounts treated as unavailable, the principal of which are the deposits made with the States under the law of 1866, there remained the sum of $746,538,655 in 1893 and the stun of $775,310,559 in 1894 represented by live assets in the several offices of the treasury and mint, together with deposits in national banks. Of these balances The sums of $584,593,920 and $616,155,820, respectively, were on deposit for the redemption of outstanding certificates and treasury notes, leaving $161,994,735 and $159,154,739 as the balances on account of the general fund. Impairment of the Gold Reserve. The treasurer remarks that the impairment of the gold reserve rendering necessary the issue of bonds in February, was caused chiefly by the depletion of the treasury resulting from insufficient revenues. Even when the supply of paper had become so reduced that the treasury was obliged to pay out large sums of gold In the ordinary disbursements the coin was freely returned in the revenues. The proceeds of this loan were $58,660,000 in gold coin and certificates, but during the month of February there were redeemed $19,200,000 of notes in gold,' presumably to meet subscriptions to the loan, so that the net gold proceeds were about $39,500,000. This, with a gain of $1,500,000 in gold from ordinary sources, brought up the reserve during the month from $65,000,000 to $106,500,000, while the net assets of the treasury, with an excess of $7,000,000 of expenditures over receipts for the month, increased from $125,000,000 to $177,000,000. During the succeeding months till the end of the first week in August the reserve was affected by deficient revenues and withdrawals of gold for export, the movement abroad having been stimulated by the necessity which the treasury was under of furnishing to exporters new full weight after the supply of old pieces had become exhausted. The lowest point touched by the reserve was $52,189,500 on Aug. 7, 1894. Prior to July, 1892, the gold reserve was but little affected by the withdrawals of coin, there never having been any considerable demand for the redemption of notes. Even when gold exports were heavy the metal was furnished by bankers from their vaults, or was obtained from the treasury for gold certificates, of course without impairment of the reserve. During the last two years, however, the treasury has been called upon to furnish nearly the whole of the requirements for exportation, and there have recently been considerable withdrawals for other uses. To the end of September last the total redemptions of United States notes in gold since the resumption of specie payments were $181,300,000, and the total redemptions of the treasury notes in gold from their first issue were $68,500,000. The two important events of the year affecting the condition of the public debt were the issue of $50,000,000 of 5 per cent, bonds to replenish the gold reserve and the stoppage of the purchase of silver bullion by the issue of treasury notes. Retirement of Treasury Notes. With reference to the retirement of treasury notes the Treasurer says that prior to August, 1893, the treasury had been able to provide for the redemption of treasury notes in silver dollars out of the holdings of free silver, so that there had not been, up to that time, any impairment of the total amount of the silver fund accumulated under the act. On the 3d of that month, however, the silver dollars and bullion in the treasury had become reduced to the amount required by law to be retained for the payment of outstanding treasury notes and certificates, and the demand for the redemption of notes continuing in consequence of the scarcity of the small denominations of currency, it became necessary to draw upon the dollars coined especially for that purpose. The silver fund being thus impaired, the notes so redeemed were canceled in order to preserve the required equality between the silver in the treasury and the notes outstanding. The total amount of the notes retired in this way, up to Oct. 31, was $4,790,434. The amount of the new issues of United States paper currency put into circulation during the year was $350,959,100, having been exceeded but once, in 1892. The amount of worn and mutilated notes redeemed was $319,002,290. This also has been exceeded but once, in 1893. The total paper circulation reached its highest point in May last, when it stood at $1,175,000,000. Since then there has been a slight contraction, caused chiefly by the gradual redemption dud retirement of gold certificates, the issue of which was suspended, as the law requires, when the gold reserve of the treasury fell below $100,000,000. The management of the Columbian Exposition having finally declined to defray the expenses of recoining the Columbian half-dollars, which have found their way into the treasury, they have been offered to the public at par in exchange for gold or gold certificates, and a considerable sum of them has been distributed in that manner. The Isabella quarters in the treasury are retained for the requisition of the board of lady managers of the Exposition. The amount of counterfeit silver coin and fractional currency detected at the offices of the treasury during the year was $10,500, an increase of S9OO over the year before. There was an increase during the year of $1,552,250 in the face value of the bonds held on account of the sinking funds of the Pacific railroads, which amounted, on June 30, tc> $18,960,000. Notwithstanding a change in the regulations, whereby senders of national bank notes for redemption were required to bear the charges for transportation, the redemptions were the heaviest since 1886, amounting to $105,000,000, or more than half of the average circulation.

NUMBER OF ARRESTS MADE, 687

Work Done by the Secret Service Department of the Treasury. William P. Hazen, the Chief of the Secret Service of the Treasury Department, in his annual report shows that during the year the total number of arrests made was GB7, nearly all of which were for violations of the statutes relating to counterfeiting United States money. Of those arested about 300 were either convicted or pleaded guilty, and 120 are now awaiting the action of grand juries. The fines collected amounted to $5,947. The amount of altered or counterfeit m>tcs captured during the year was $2U300; coins, $10,755. There were also captured 134 plates from which counterfeit notes had been printed, 33 dies, 156 molds, and a large quantity of miscellaneous matter, consisting of tools, melting pots, etc.

WHOLE CITY WAS IN DANGER.

Shelbyville, Ind., Has a Narrow Escape from Burning Down. At Shelbyville, Ind., by mistake the natural gas was given high pressure in the low pressure mains, and at midnight it was discovered that over 500 stoves and heaters in all parts of the city were melting under the intense heat, and buildings were igniting in every direction. The fire alarm was turned in, bells were rung, whistles sounded and the citizens were aroused from their slumbers to discover themselves in the midst of a general conflagration. The flow of gas was arrested and only three houses were burned. The destruction of thSse buildings amounted to considerable loss to the owners. If the alarm had been twenty minutes later nothing could have saved the city from destruction. The Mean Thing. “Women play smart tricks on one another sometimes," said a smart American woman; “but the queerest I ever heard of was perpetrated by one social leader in a Western city upon another. They were rivals, and hated each other accordingly, though outwardly they preserved the semblance of pleasant relations. Every chance that either got to give a dig at the other was eagerly seized. But the final and most effective ‘stroke, after which no calls were exchanged, was delivered by Mrs. L'. She sent out caids for a grand entertainment, and then took pains to find out what Mrs. her competitor, was going to wear. A gorgeous brocaded tatin was the materia of Mrs. F.’s gown, it was ascertained. Accordingly Mrs. L., whose husband was in the dry goods business, obtained several hundred yards of the same identical stuff and draped the walls of all the rooms on the lower floor of her house with it. You may imagine th« feelings of Mrs. F.. on arriving in her superb new frock, which she expected to make a sensation. Naturally, she ordered her carriage and drove away in tears.” This Is Utopia. Off the northeast coast of New Guinea the Island of Kitaba, surrounded by a wall of coral .00 feet high on the outside and from fifty to 100 on the inside, maintains twelve villages of natives, to whom war, crime and poverly have been unknown since the beginning of their traditions.

CHINA READY TO QUIT

WILL OPEN PEACE NEGOTIATIONS DIRECTLY WITH JAPAN. China Said to Be Willing to Pay an Indemnity of One Hundred Million Taels Besides AU Japan’s Expeusca —Special Envoy Dispatched. Bears an Olive Branch. De Ting, the chief of the imperial customs at Tien Tsiu. who was recently summoned to Pekin in order to confer with the government as to ways and means for raising money for the war, has left for Japan in order to arrange terms of peace. The departure of the Chinese customs chief for Japan is regarded by officials in Washington as the result of Japan’s demand for a direct offer from China. The De Ting mentioned in the cable is said to be Dietering. a German, who occupies the position of commissioner of customs. That he should be sent as the peace envoy is accounted for by officials on the ground that an indemnity would probably be secured on the customs receipts. It has been one of Japan’s contentions that she would expect to receive the customs receipts of the big Chinese ports in case an indemnity was arranged. It is said that the Chinese envoy will probably be the guest of United States Minister Dun at Tokio. Japanese officials have been accorded every courtesy. Although Japan shows no signs of exhaustion, fiscal or military, her Government and people ought to be satisfied with the magnificent progress already achieved in humbling a power ten times more formidable as to numbers and allied with the most aggressive imperial sovereignties of Europe and Asia. England’ interests are implicated with China’s; Russia’s are complicated with China’s. If Japan can arrange peace which, first, shall completely detach Corea from China; which, secondly, shall give no new footing to Russia on the northeast nor to England in the ports and mines of Corea, Japan will prove herself not only a war power of distinguished rank, notwithstanding her insular insignificance and her comparatively small numbers, but she will have outwitted the entire array of European diplomatists who have been hovering over the contest like vultures expecting to prey on both contestants. China will bear watching in all states of negotiation for peace. Shameless in treachery, recreant to pledges, savage to captives, barbarous in all respects in which she has not been partially civilized by force, her diplomats will not hesitate to cheat even their own agent in the negotiations.

KILLED LIKE BEASTS.

Two Thousand of the Unprotected People Butchered In Samsun* A dispatch to the London Times from Vienna says that a letter has been received there from Smyrna reporting that Zeki Pasha, a Turkish marshal, with a detachment of Nizams and a field battery, massacred 2,000 Armenians at Sassun. The bodies of the dead were left unburied and their presence has caused an outbreak of cholera. Many Christians are reported to have fled by secret paths across the Russian frontier. So-far there has been no official confirmation of this news, but if it is true it is time the pow’ers share in the responsibility by their failure to enforce article Gt of the Berlin treaty, which imposes on them the duty of seeing that the Porto takes measures to protect Armenians. The latter declare that they hope for nothing from Europe, but that they still have confidence in Great Britain. Numerous appeals have been made by the Armenians to the British foreign office. The last appeal received says that the Armenians do not wish to see more of their territory annexed by Russia, but if Great Britain is unable to help them they will be compelled to look to Russia, under whose yoke they would be better off than under the yoke of Turkey. A dispatch to the London Daily News from Constantinople says that the energetic action of Sir Philip Currie, the British Ambassador to Turkey, has caused consternation among the members of the Turkish Government. Everything has been done to keep secret the facts of the outrages. Information from various sources tends to prove that the Sassun affair was most serious. A dispatch from Constantinople to the Standard says that ip .response to the protest made by Sir Philip Currie, British Ambassador to Turkey, the Porte has unreservedly withdrawn the charge against Mr. Hallward, the British Consul at Van, of inciting the Armenians nt Sassun and elsewhere to revolt. The charge grew out of the investigation made by Mr. Hallward into the Armenian massacres and his report to the British Ambassador. The Governor of Bitlis, ! who is seriously involved in the outrage, I made the charge, it is said, for the purpose of revenge. The Sultan has decided to send a commission composed of three members of his military household and one civilian to Sassun for the purpose of making an impartial inquiry into the outrages on Armenians. The latest news is to the effect that many of the Armenians who were supposed to have been killed fled from the soldiery and are now returning. Brlefleta. Dr. L. T.

Mrs. Blanche Kaufman, a French actress, was sentenced at Cincinnati, Ohio, to three months’ imprisonment and to pay S2OO fine and costs for shooting her husband several months ago. Two more dead, burned in the forest fires of Sept. 1, have been found in the most northerly portion of the burned district. One was Capt. L. Brook, of Pine City, Minn.; the other cannot be identified. The trial of the would-be train robbers, Overfield and Abrams, was postponed until February at Memphis, Mo., because Abrams is not sufficiently recpvered to appear.

Holmes' Witticisms.

When the late Dr. Holmes was at a dinner party once in England, Mrs. Siddona was being discussed. Home one said that the statesman Fox had been smitten by tne groat actress. Holmes said that from all ho had heard of her he could not understand a man falling in love with her. She was too grand; it was like falling in love with the pyramids. Perhaps the worshipful company of clothmakers or board of aiderman might have loved her, but one man-never. It was Holmes who remarked, with affected gravity: “11 eally mutt not smoke so persistently, i must turn over a new leaf—a tobacco leaf— and have a cigar only after each*—here he paused, as if to say 'meal,” but he continued—“after each cigar.” When the smile ran around the table, he leaned back in his chair and said; “A foreigner is ah alien; a foreigner who drinks too much is a bacchanalian, and may not a foreigner who smokes too much bo callod u tobaeconallan?” Cnee, when be had been heavily lionized and inobbad by a deputation of rough men from the far West, and some one asked him if he did not en oy it: “Enjoy it!” he exclaimed: “I felt like the small elephant at the Zoo, with a cheap excursion par.y on its back.”

The Place of Torment

Of bilious people is chiefly in the region of the liver, but with the extreme discomfort located there are associated sour stomach, yellowness of the skin and eyeballs, morning nausea, an unpleasant breath, furred tongue, sick headache, and irregularity of the bowels. For each and all of these unpleasantnesses, Hostetter's Stomach Bitters is a swift and agreeable remedy. It is greatly preferable to any vegetable purgative or drastic mineral cathartic. Such pseudo-specifics usually do more barm than good. In malarial complaints the liver is always involved. For such disorder, as well aa for rheumatic and kidney trouble, nervousness and •ability, Hostetter's Stomaoh Bitters is a benign remedy. Physicians strongly commend it lor its promptitude and thoroughness, and professional approval is fully justified by public oxpeileuce during more than a third of a century.
