Henry Watterson Sees in the Election Results The Necessity for a United Democracy. RELEGATES TARIFF REFORM And Says the Party Will Regain Its Prestige. Vice-President Stevenson Expresses His Views. Think the Drlar of Cnacrrsi anil the Financial Depression Canard he W"t Governor Wnlte Charge the Defeat of the Populist to the Money Power Senator Cull' Eiplanalloa McKlnlrr Dalag o Tulklng LOUISVILLE, Nov. 7. In tomorrow Courier-Journal under the had, "Have We a Democratic Party?" Mr. Watterson will say: "Never did a great party go to the people under such handicaps as were carried by the democrats Into the campaign just ended. The hard times were bad enough. Bat they might have been parried. The faction fights among small claimants and rival place men were b:ii enough, but patties have met and overcome euch obstacles before now. But with the record of 'perfidy and dishonor,' as Mr. Cleveland aptly described it, to face and d fend la a hand to hand fight with the united republicans, led by HatrL.-?on, McKinley and Reed, it was disheartening f or democrats to have to face also the dull, se'.fsufflciency and solid indifferen.-e of an administration that made no sign, uttered no word. ani. at l?ast in the slat? of New York, seomedj to desire the defeat of the regular democratic nominees. "What wonder that ?j mach apathy in the official head should breed disaffection in the rank and tile? What wonder that with so many knives whetted at "Washington there was blood upon the moon down in the precincts? But it la over, and. let us hope, it is well over. We shall have time to look about us and whilst burying our dead to c-csi some balance for the living. "The battle for tariff reform will have to go down foot and take a new start. The battle over the money issue will scon be upon us. We shall see whether there la democracy enough left of the true and blue stripe to make a greatcoat good against all weather, or whether we must stiJl wear a coat of many colors, covering not a homogeneous party, ln-fired by falth and truth, but a mere bundle of factions thrown together by the upheaval of the times. "The republicans have made the issue that the democrats cannot successfully govern the country. Upon the lim-s of our recent experience it would seem that at least the men we have at the front cannot. At any rate that seems to be the opinion of a majority of the voters. But no more can the republicans govern it, except by money or by force. When they were in power they could only get along by the aid of boodle, bac ked by bayonets. "The republican party is now whit it has always been. It was and Is essentially a war party. It wa3, and it is, essentially a party of proscription. The democratic party, purged of its baser elements reanimated by the constitutional doctrines of Jefferson inspired by the national spirit of Jackson is the natural, the inevitable party of the constitution and the people, and, as such, it is tound to live and regain its lost prestige." MR. SriUMJKH'S OPIMOX. I'rarea the Party to Trollt lr Urn Temporary Defeat. CHICAGO, Nov. 7. Congressman Willlam M. Springer wires the Associated Press from Springfield, 111., as follows: "Tour request for my opinion on the result of the election in Illinois and the country received. There were many causes which contributed to the defeat of the democratic party. The di.--satis-factlon among democrats caused by the delay in passing a tariff bill and the alleged imperfections in that measure had In a measure closed when the election occurred. Intelligent members of the party were satisfied that every possible effort would have been put forth to secure prompt action. The hard times of a year ago. which had been attributed by republicans to threatening tariff legislation, caused a feeling of doubt In the minds of many as to the wisdom of the democratic tariff policy. The unemployed sought a change without mopping to inquire whether each a change would really benefit them or not The manufacturers of the country, who had been receiving large benefits from a protective tariff, were not deposed to give up any of the privilege which they had enjoyed heretofore. They naturally resented any efforts to curtail tlp-ir rights to tax the tolling millions for their own benefit. "The business Interests of the country were appealed to by republican partisans to make large contributions to their campaign funds. There were many evidences In this part of Illinois to prove that such appeals were not made In vain. The republican managers in this congressional district were supplied more liberally with campaign funds than ever before known in this state. Never before were republican politicians so active and persistent lr party affairs as during- the campaign In this district. "The manajera of the democrats party wer active and aggressive. They never made a more gallant rixht, but we were defeated. The stay-at-home vote amon? the democrats was very large; so large In some localities as to raise the wuspitlon that voters had been paid to remain away from the polls. "The tldjl wave of democratic prosperity, which set In immediately after the passage of the democratic tariff bill was attributed by republicans to prospective republican success. They not only charge! the- democratic party with responsibility for the republican hard times, tut they appropriated t therruelvea the great prosperity which followed the passage of the measure. But notwithstanding th? overwhelming defeat of the democratic party the prosperity which came from the adoption of its polity of tariff reform "will continue right along and increase In extent from week to week and month to month until all men will find employment at good wages, and all the business Interests of the country are In a, healthy condition and placed on a permanent and enduring foundation. "Before the next presidential election occurs the busines3 condition brought a-bout by democratic legislation will be eo satisfactory thit the country will reverse the verdict cf last Tuesday and

elect a democratic president and a congress democratic in both branches. Democrats should not feel dUcouraged by this defeat. Their tariff law cannot be repealed during this administration, and time will vindicate lta wisdom and the country will never consent to Its abrogation by modification except In the direction of greater reforms. "WILLIAM M. SPRINGER."

CHARGED TO TUR MOSEY TOWER. Governor Walte of Colorado Concedes Ilia Party's Defeat. DENVER. Nov. 7. Governor Warte conceded! the defeat of hla party early today: "To my mind," he said, "it proves conclusively that the money power ha dominated this election from beginning to end and the democratic party la not responslbla from the fact that many democrats voted ths republican ticket Instead of their own. I made up my mind! several years ago that there -was only one way to rescue the country from conditions now existing. an4 for -which the money power is responsible, and that was to fight it. Consequently I haAe never made any bones of declaring that the controlling power which it haj exercised over all legislation be destroyed. I believed that the influence of Wall-?t. must be removed from congress. The result in Colorado can bi accounted for from, the fact that. Ih-i democrats have, almost to a man, voted for the republican, ticket. It proves to me that there is absolutely no difference in the financial policy of the democratic and republican parties. Colorado democrats undoubtedly voted the republican ticket on account of ordera received from Washington. It was the same in New York. While the democrats there may not have received explicit ordwa there is no doubt but that their conduct was influenced largely by a secret understanding between the leaders. The purpose, was to pnrpetuate and continue the gold standard for which Wall-sL has been contending s earnestly." When asked if he thought the populist party will ever regain power, the governor repli'Al: "I believe it will, but it may not be for some time. I do rmt know exactly how it .will be done. I think we will have to d i it right over their hearts. However. I advocate this beinir clona in a peaceful manner, if possible, a peaceful revolution. Of course I believe the ballot is the proper method to be employed. But this has not proved efficacious in this state." The governor said that woman's influence in the citieü, where it is greatest, was exerted against him. "The women," he sail, "must be educated to think for themselves and not be controlled by the money power as the men are." Mil. STKVKNSOVS VIEWS. Due to Financial Depression and the Delay of Congress. BLOOMINGTMON. 111., Nov. 7. The Hon. Adlal E. Stevenson, vice-president, spent today quietly in the seclusion of the home of his brother, John, meditating upon the political events of yesterday and preparing to attend the wedding of n nephew, which takes place tonight. It was a dreary day with leaden skies and a cold drizzle dimming the window panes. Mr. Stevenson, when asked to state his opinion as to the causes leading up to the democratic defeat of yesterday, said: "My opinion can be briefly stated. The result is due in part to the financial depression which came upon the country soon after the inauguration ' of Mr. Cleveland. While the democrats were in no way responsible for this, they were made Che scapegoats. It was also in part due to the delay of congress in passing the tariff bill. Had the bill become a law ninety days earlier than it did, it is quite probable that the business conditions of the country would have so adjusted themselves that the political result would have been different." Mr. Stevenson will depart from Bloomington this week for Ashevllle, N. C, where he will Join his family, who are sojourning there. He will remain in the South three weeks, going thence to Washington. Senator Call Explains It. WASHINGTON. Nov. 7 The cabinet officers were late in reaching their desks today. The president did not come into the city at all, but remained at Woodley, presumably at work on his annual message to congress. As a general rule nobody occupying a prominent place in the administration cared to talk for publication today respecting the election yesterday. The single exception was Assistant Secretary Doe of the war department, who had been confident that his party would hold its own at least In his native state of Wisconsin. Said he: "The election in some respects reminds one very much of that of 1S74. This election wiil also be claimed by the late calamityhowlers to be a decisive verdict against tariff reform, but it Is, In fact, nothing of the kind. ThU is one issue which never will be settled until a tariff for revenue has been given a fair trial." Senator Call of Florida, when aked about the result of yesterday, said: "Gone up, gone up when a party has been advocating a certain policy during Its existence anJ when It goes Into power fails to carry out that policy It's sure to suffer defeat." McKinley !Vot Talking. COLUMBUS, O., Nov. "-Governor McKinley was in bis office early, considering the fact that he was up most of last night receiving the election returns. Being asked what he thought about the situation, he preferred not to talk. He would only say: I "The sweeping republican victories indi cated at this hour are impressive. They need no Interpretation. They express bet ter th3n -words the revised and deliberate judgment of the people upon the questions involved in the political contest now closed." niatnea Democrat and Women, WICHITA, Kas., Nov. 7. Governor Lewelllr.g eald: "I do not conwle the defeat of the populist ticket. Only the cities and the town precincts have been heard from and the country can easily overturn the showing there. I do not. however, look, for more than 3,0u0 plurality, for either the republicans or populists, and only the official count can decide the rej suit. The democrats evidently aidd the republicans. woman eurrrage hurt the populist ticket." Transportation 1 n Corra.

Bill talk:

On the Causes of the Defeat of the Party. Is No Verdict Against Democratic Principles. REFLECTION OF DISCONTENT And Not the People's Calm, Dispassionate Judgment. Whitney, Altgeld and Gorman Are Interviewed. The Formrr View Oefent Very Much After the Manner of Cngreisiiian Bynuin Illinois Governor Ildamen the President and His Alni tnltslrnllon, ns Might Have Ileen Expected Mrs. Lease Tells Whiit She Think of the Result. WASHINGTON, D. C, Nov. 9. The Hon. William D. Bynum of Indiana arrived in the city today. When asked for his opinion of the cause of his cwn arid hLj party's defeat in the election, he said: "It is absurd to attribute such a revolution to a change in the minds of the people upon political questions. Upon question of principle, such sudden anil radical changes do not take place. The anti-fret? silver ar.3 coiervativ? tariff representatives as well as the advocates of free coinage and a radical revision of the tariff, went down a'.ika, b;f:re th same irresistible influence. The result was not an acceptation of the prinulpl s and politics of the republican party. "Every person who ha.1 observed the condition of public sentiment for the List few years ha.3 n:ted th? restlessies., upon the part of the great masses r,f the pe;jle, and a disposition to hold the party in power responsible) for the misfortunes that have pome upon us. We have ha 1 many peaceful revolutions within the last ten years, and we may congratulate ours.ws that the dissatisfied elements hive, thus f?.r. been content with their efforts to strike down the ruling party. Within four years they have twice dethroned th.--republican and once the democratic p.irty. To say that the people are so fi-kle-mlnded about the question irp .n which the two great paitles have dlvIJM from the foundation of the government, is ridiculous. The result on Tuesday last was only another, but a still m re striking exhibition of the deep dl-aatisf actn:i which has been growing in the minds of th people for fiim? year.s. and which up ti the present time has been content to strike down the party in p-wer. "The republican party, when clotlu-,-1 with full responsibility, wilt, unless thre Is a radical change i: conditio:-"-., m-t with the same fate. These sudden and overwhelming changes are evid.nv-ts of a demoralized, if not a diseased pul.i? mr d that does not auger well f r th stilnlity of any policy or for the prosperity of t hecountry. "Whit the country need. m'st is t st and to be plunged into a condition, of uncertainty every two or four yens w.l! more likely aggravate than allay the evils of which the peoplo are com plaining." HOW ALTGEI.D KIIGAUHS IT. The Governor lllnmes the President for the Political I phrniiil. SPRINGFIELD. 111.. Nov. 9. Governor Altgeld was asked today for his opinion regarding tho election. He said: "The result is not due to local causes. The causes that produced it operated all ovtr the country, and I think were largely due to widespread dissatisfaction with the cours? pursued by the federal administration. It iir.st -wore out the patience and destroyed the confidence of business interests, and then turned around and literally' drove away tfKe men who toil with their hands. In th? spring of 1SH3 President Cleveland was urged to con ene congress at once for the purpose of considering the tariff question. Ai that time a fair tariff reform bill could have been passed in six weeks. The country had spoken upon the subject; the sentiment of the American people was nearly unanimous, and ever; the corrupting agents of protected monopolies were ready to surrender. Had this touree been taken the great business and manufacturing interests of the country would at once have adjusted tlir-ms-elves to the new conditions and gone to work; th2 country would have asain settled down, und there would have been no tarlir discussion this campaign. But instead of listening to the voice o,f the American people, Cleveland wa accessible only to foreign anJ eastern money manipulators. The result wa that the conditions growing out of the panic were inten.-ili?d and tha business and manufacturing interests of the country were practically kept at a standstill for eighteen months, during which tima thousands of laborers Wtre compelled to beg bread. The reäu.t was not only dissatisfaction but disgust. Never before in tha history of the republic has such giganüo blunders been committed by a president. "While these causes did mt produce the conditions which gave rise to the great coal strike and great railroad strike last summer, they did intensify t!v?se conditions. In fact, there is doubt 'Whether we would have had father strike if the tariff question had boen settled In the spring of 1S93. After having helped to produce thesa great disturbances the federal administration turned ls face against the great laboring ela&ses of the country an J placed all the powers of government under the control of corporations. "In Chicago, during the railroad stiike, before any rioting or destruction cf property, and before anything happened to Indicate that the local authorises c-iuli not maintain law and order, and bef jro th state authortics were ?k(d fur assis'tanee, the federal government, violating the constitution anil principles of local self-government, which the democratic party had advocated for a hundred years. Interfered, both through the federal Judiciary and by the use of federal troops. This, by direction of the attorney-general and president. The country then discovered that it had a corporation lawyer for attorney-general, and although there was in Chicago complete machinery for the administration of Justice, yet bo eager were the federal authorities to serve corporations that th usual machinery of Justice in Chicago ; was not trusted. A special representative was appointed to directly represent the government as prosecutor and the country was amazed at the selection made. "The administration selected not only a republican, but one of the most prominent corporation lawyers of the country, and who was attorney for some railroads involved in the strike, and had therefore direct personal interest In the outcome. Yet he was put in charge of the machlnJ ery cf Justice, and brought to the eervice

o! his clients without any expense to tiirm. United States marshals, grand juries, courtä and army. All this under an administration that had been placed in rower by the democratic party. Hundreds of honest and indutsrious men who had violated no statute and transgressed no law, were thrown into prison on a mere charge of being guilty of contempt of court, and the toiling masses bec3m3 alarmed, not simply for their material welfare, but for th liberty of themselves and children, and feized the first opportunity to de-liver a body blow to the administration which was fraudulently claiming to be democratic, while violating every rule and principal of democracy. They joined hands with the dissatisfied business men, and the result is universal disa.-ter to the party, which has twice been deceived and twice betrayed by one man. It has had the misfortune to be tricken by the man to whom it handed the sword." MRS. LEASE'S WOES.

ttlnmes the Democracy, Senator Martin nnrt Chairman IJreldenthal. WICHITA, Kan., Nov. 9. Speaking of the election Mrs. Mary E. Lease said today: "Toe d.fea: of the people's party In Kan?as Is due largely to th? disgraceful compromise with democracy twa years aro and to the treachery perpetrated upon the people by th? election of John Martin. I believe Governor Lewelling would have been re-elected this year had it not been for Martin's letter and the bulldozing methods and treachery of Sti.e Cliiirmin Ilrei dcnihal, who, to serve his own selfish end, sacrificed the head of the lieket by endeavoring to fu--e in legislative and congressional district. "As to woman suffrage its defeat this year was assured when some crazy, irresponsible, se-kng-notDrMy woman ac-CT-pud republican pay to foist her peculiar views upm the populist convention. When we g-t ready for a constitutional amendment in this state our people will Io-k after it suceesf ully." Her?. Mrs. Iase took a shit at Anna Disrg-! by adding: "In good 'time it will b? brought n beut and not by women who Mh out at public m?etlngs. 'y m are a liar. We will rejoice that democracy, John Martin and his pollticil tools are be.iid hi. pi f rt surrecti jn. That is some consolation." WIIITXEV'S STATEMENT. Election Hcniilt ot n Verdict Against the I'jirtj'a Principles. NEW YORK. Nov. 9. The World prints th following statement from Williom C. Whitney: "It doe. not require a seer to see that th? cause of tho election results wer both s-neral and special. It is a repetition, to my niir-.d. of 174, with the parties revised. Th? panic of 1S73 resulted in tha trrcat d:-:mcr:uic tidal wave of 1S74, and th- hard dnies of 13 and 1S31 have re-s-.r.t-d in thi.s great republican victory. Tii it. is the great underlying general c:?tse, hu: along with it Is the fact that the demooriti.' party his misbehaved since 1S92, an 1 disgusted larked bodies of its friends and supporters. That fact has been ptr-f-vtly evident to everybody. When people aro poor and hungry, they actually are against the government, and the party i:i pwr gets the blame of it. A grrat ma::y wh have loyally supported tho p.irty this time will rather rejoice at th? thoroughness and completeness of the waipplrg. If it was to be they would rather have th? lesson written out strong et ousii not ti be mistaken. I do not think it is a verdiot against the party or its principle. Th? republicans will say si, and it will tak- a long time to get over It, but the demo'.ratic party has had foar ime.s as rr.;r.- -f;at as victories since T law bi "o a Voter, anl it does not demoralize eislly. It will be stronger in the end." I Coriiian lias I. title to Sy. BAITIMOltE. Nov. 9. Senator Arthur P. Gorman was seen at his horn? near Ijt;uil yetserday by a representative of th? Anieri tin. The senator is improving in health and seemed in g ;od spirits. He said, when asked as to the causes of the democratic defeat, that he hid not been paying tiny attention to politics sinoe Die adjournment .of th? senate, but that he had b.-en devoting the time to getting well and was in much better condition than he had been for some time. He sail that the causes of the defeat were various, and it wa.s hard to tell what particular thing wa- most influential. He thought that in political matters as in battle men run for no particular cause. In some cases, he nd led, the cause was a local one. and not due to anything the d-m -cm tic party had done. The ciuses which existed in iS92. when the republicans were d felted continue now, whatever they were, and th? democratic party was suffering fnm the action of the people Just as the republicans hnd done at that election. He did not think the defeat of the denuK-tati? party would be lasting, but that everything would be all right after a while. The senator does not seem to b? wry much deptv.-sed with the result, believing it only temporary. Mr. Mri on the Klectlons. PARIS, Nov. 9 Samuel E. Morss, the United States consul, in an interview in regard to the elections just held in the United States, is quot?d as saying: "I rsntkiptted a democratic defeat, although I h pcj it would not be s sweeping. I do not believe that the result mein republican restoration to power In 1SD6. It is a nitre temporary' upheaval and not a permanent revolution. The principal cauKj of the disaster is the groat financial pani? of 1S13. which has not yet spent its force, and for which the party in power has unjustly been held responsible. This has always been the case from the foundation of the government. In every instance the dominant party has lost el etions occurring during or immediately after a financial crisis. The first congressional flections following a general tariff revision have al.-o Invariably been lost by tin? party responsible. I believe that the recent panic was partly due to nitural causes, but it was due In the greater part to republican class legislation and maladministration. The country Is now entering upm a career of prosperity. The new tariff will give general satisfaction and the democratic party will enter the next presidential campaign with tho chances of success very largely in iis favor." THANKSGIVING DAY.

THIS IS N

Republican Tongues Are Wagging at Washington In Connection with the Indiana Election, T In the Hope of Landing a Senatorship. Michener Coming to Claim the Prize, IVblch lie Professes to Ilelieve the Republicans Will Do Aide to Wrest Two Years Hence Will Have the Aid of the Xotorlomi Dudley and Ills Ganjg of Political Freebooters Democratie Leader ot l the Least DisroDriiKril by the Returns Hopes for the Future. BUREAU OF THE SENTINEL, WASHINGTON, D. C, Nov. 8. The surprising result in Indiana and the claim of the republicans that they will have a majority In the legislature of that state in 1S90 has set the greedy politicians of that party to wagging their heads and setting in motion a train of gossip as to whom the republicans will send as senator. In this connection it is t-aid quietly, but with more than ordinary earnestness, that the republican brethren of Indiana will shortly have the extreme pleasure of welcoming back Into their family the Hon. L. T. Michener, who, having kept out of the campaign until he saw that the others had done the work for the party, is now proceeding with a great deal of care to cast his weather eye toward that senatorship. In fact, he is said to have gone so far as to begin to prepare his maiden speech in the hall of the upper house. He will be aided by the particularly honest and upright Dudley, and the two of them believe they may be able to make use of some "bloeks-of-five" game to bamboozle the republican party. They are already engaged in laying wires and Michener may return to the state at any time to enter into the fight. At any rate he is scheduled to be there before the next legislative campaign, and C. W. Fairbanks and the rest of the crowd who have already measured themselves for a seat in the senate had better watch out. This is all the talk among the Indianians at the national capital and they expect to see a merry' fight on, as the crowd that has been at work for the republicans this fall are not expected to be exuberant in their brotherly greeting fur the man who has boon silent In Washington and let them do the work and now wants to step in and take all the plums in the pudding. SUM Republicans Are I'nlinppy. One would think that the returns that have come in from all over the United States could leave the republicans nothing to hope for. Nevertheless there is a great amount of worriment being given rein in the camp of leaders of that party and they are at their wits' end to think what tho outcome will be. The reason for this is that they have got too much of a majority and they are greatly afraid that when the time comes this majority will run away from all restraint and plunge the party into such excesses that the people will bury it worse than it was buried in 1SD'). Chairman Babeock said to The Sentinel corresiondent today that he would much rather have a majority of twenty-five, because there could be more compact and would be solidified by the very dangers presented by the appearance of schism. He has good reason to fear, because the party is split up on a dozen different questions, and when it comes- together there will be a three-ringed circus in the attempt to control their votes and voices. Itecd Will Hold the Sceptre. Reed will be the ringmaster. He has the present majority so abjectly his servants that they dare not do anything without his consent, and he even swears at them in his Impatience to show that ho Is the boss of their side. His same way will probaly continue in the next congress for the very simple reason that there will be no other republican in the house with either brains or back-bone enough to make a contest with him. However, there will be an attempt on the part of Harrison, McKinley, Allison, Sherman and the host of other republican candidates for the presidency to prevent Reed being in too great control, and they are likely to attempt to work up booms for Julius Caesar llurrows of Michigan, Sereno E. Payne of New York or one of the dozen men who have acted as Reed's clowns during two or three congresses and cut capers at the crack cf his whip. But Reed will undoubtedly bulldoze himself Into first place and attempt to run things in his own favor. One thing he will most assuredly try to do will be to keep the republicans from going to an extreme on the tariff is?ue. He is too shrewd a politician not to know that in a short time the people will see the revival under the new tariff law and will come to appreciate Its benefits o much that they will not stand any Inward tendency in the tariff If-gislatlon of the country. He as much as expressed such a feeling at Ann Arbor. Hut it is doubtful whether he can control the house. There will be so many radical proteclve tariffites that he will find himself holding onto the horns of a wild bull and carried hither and thither by tho brute in its fury. Deiuoorntle Leaders Hopeful. The democratic leaders, now that they have sounded the greatest depth of the defeat they have met with, are beginning to look around and to believe that what has been done in two years can be undone. Chairman Faulkner believes that the result was due to a Teat exterjt to the staying at home of democrats, just as republicans stayed at hoaie in 1890. He looks forward, however, to the next campaign and believes the democrats will be successful In it. They are not killed by any means. In 1872 they were defeated by Grant and people said that the party could never rally again; that it was killed forever. However, at the next congressional tdectlon the democrats came together again and with their old-time vigor waged one of their enthusiastic campaigns, with a result that they swept the whole country, making 1S1 changes of seats In the house and scoring the greatest victory in the history of the country. There is Indeed much to hope for In 1S96.

CASTING

ANOTHER BOND ISSUE.

It Is Said the Government AVI II Float a Second Fifty Million. NEW YORK, Nov. 9. The Tress tomorrow will say: After the close of business today it was announced that the government will ask the bankers for another loan of $50,OtM),000. Gold bonds for that amount bearing 5 per cent, interest will be Issued within a few days, at a price which will net investors cbout 3 per cent, annually. "AssistantSecretary of the Treasury Curtis has been in this city for several days and has had conferences with the presidents of national banks and trust companies. One of these bank presidents said today: 'Yes. there will b. an issue of bonds shortly. Probably within the next week or two Secretary Carlisle will call for investors. President Cleveland and the secretary have determined that the gold reserve shall not be further depleted. If the people do not take all the bonds, as It is possible they will not, the bankers who floated the last issue will subscribe. As far as Is known in this city the exaot amount of the issue has not yet been determined. The Issue will undoubtedly reach $:.0.O0ft,0t). It ha not yet been decided whether a syndicate will be formed to take these bonds or not. That also will depend upon the ac-tior of the authorities in Washington.' " It Is Probable. BUREAU OF THE SENTINEL. WASHINGTON. E. C, Nov. 10. President Cleveland Is ready to take the bull by the horns again and show his courage i:a dealing with the affairs of the nation, as it is almost certain that another issue of 10,000,000 worth of bonds will be announced in a, few days. Wha-n It Is thej republican calamity howlers are expected to get up on their hind legs and make a tremendous din about the insufficiency of the new tariff law to meet the demandä of the government, but they will be wrong. Tho new tariff law has not yc-t goS sufficiently into effect to correct the legacy of bankruptcy left by Ben Harrison and "Calico Charley" Foster. This issue 1m only one following on the one that was contemplated by Harrison during the last days of fci3 maladministration and to meet the same exigencies. The gold reserve Is now getting very low, whi!3 some expenditures are running somewhat high. There are indications that another Issue of bonds v.id be made during the coming week. For some time pxsL the convirlon has been growing uporr tha president that an issue ot another $30,000,003 would soon be necessary and on his return from Buzzard's bay he expressed to the members of his cabinet his belief that the issue could no: I long delayed, and that the sooner it was made the better. He saw the treasury receipts constantly growing less with no inm-diate prospect of any favorable change. Already the gold reserve has reached a point of $1,000,000 below the lowest point touched previous to the last issue, with the probabilities strongly in favor of still further and larger withdrawals for export as soon as the usual spring outflow sets in. For the last several years the spring withdrawals for export have ranged in amount from $20,000,000 to $D0,0OO,0K) and even more, and It was not good business Judgment, in th? opinion, of the president, to wait until tho gold reserve was in fact wiped out befora measures should be taken to replenish it. Secretary Carlisle, it Is understood, took a more hopeful view of the situation. He argued that tho receipts from internal revenue and customs must of necessity soon show a marked Increase. The supply of whiskey which was withdrawn irom bond just prior to the passage of the new tariff act. to avoid the payment of the additional 20 cents per gallon, would very soon b? exhausted, and that the demands of trade would result in largely increased revenues from this source, and what was true of the internal revenue was equally true of the customs. Just before the tariff act went into operation the withdrawal from bonds of goods of every character was abnormally large. This supply had now been exhausted or nearly so. and it was the confident expectation! of the secretary that the present steady revival of trad? would s;on remove any necessity for another Issue of bonds. Up to this time there had been no signs of any important withdrawals of gold for export, and it was his opinion that the emergency might be passed successfully without Increasing the public debt. His experience in placing the last issue taught him that the issue of another $00,000,000 might fall far short of recouping the gold reserve by that amount. It was an easy matter to deposit legal tenders at the sub-treasurie3 and demand gold with which to pay for the bonds. This evasion of the spirit of the law authorizing the Issue of the bonds was several times detected during the settlements for the lat Issue and he feared it might be practiced again. The president, hawever, thought that all thing3 considered, he had preferred not to wait until congress reassembled in December, when measures might "be taken to obstruct the Issue. In his opinion the situation demanded the issue and there should be no unnecessary delay in the matter. At the request cf the president Secretary Carlisle joined him at Woodley this afternoon and at a late hour had not returned to the city. Persons in a position to know believe that this issue will be oflicially announced before the close of the coming week. The cash -balance in the treasury today was $104,750,4SS; gold reserve, $01.915,101. The receipts from all sources so far this month amount to $6.640,115, making the total receipts since July last n-S.ei'T.DCd. The disbursements during the ten days of the present month amount to $11,727,000, and since July 1 to $123,046.233, leaving a deficit of $5.0S7,7S3 during the last ten days and $19.440.741 since July 1 last, as compared with Feb. 1. 1S94. when the last "bond issue was mad?. There Is an Increase in the cash balance of over $20,500.000. The gold reserve lias, however, decreased about $4.000,000. The Ilrltlsh Umpire. The British empire Is a political creation unparalleled In the world's history not only by Its extent and population, in both of which respects it is slightly surpassed by China, but because, with an area of more than 10,000,003 square mi!?s and with 352 000.000 Inhabitants, it is scattered over the whole globe. It embraces all zones, from the icy wilderness of Hudson bay to the tropical jungles of India and the mahogany forests of Honduras. There is scarcely a product which a British province does not bring forth in excellent quality, and not less various are the degrees of civilization of Its inhaditants, from the Kaffirs of the cape to the highly cultivated citizens of Toronto or Sydney. We find, with Christians of all confessions, 2io0.000.000 Hindoos about 70,000,000 Mohammedans and 8,003,000 Buddhists, and the btbls is printed in 130 languages and dialects represented In the empire; yet, notwithstanding such promiscuous elements, ahe government, with rare exceptions, maintains order, and no sign of dissolution is vUible.
