Os the 2d Secretary Carlisle ordered the acting director of the -mint to notify sellers of silver bullion that from and after that date deliveries on sales to the government must be completed within five days from the date of acceptance. The time heretofore has been ten days. It is explained that five days is sufficient time for silver deliveries. There is a project on foot in the City of Mexico to unite all Latin-Amer-ican nations in a monetary league to resist the depreciation of silver. Public opinion there favors entering into a monetary league with .the United States, transferring the trade of LatinAmerica largely to, Americans, only asking on the part of the United States a freer entrance of raw material.

Two cabins occupied bv Chinese miners in the Taryall gulch, near Como, Col., were burned by white nfiners early on the morning of the 1st. Eight Chinese who are missing are believed to have perished in the flames. About seventy-five Chinese are employed in the Taryall placers, working for less wages than the whites. This caused the trouble. The Chinese were greatly frightened, and took refuge in buildings about town. There is trouble an the hat factories of Orange and 'Orange Valley, X. J. Some shops are already closed and others are about to do so, which wul throw 3,000 men out of work. The United States cruiser Xew York, which is receiving her finishing touches at Cramp's shipyard, Philadelphia, went into commission, on the 1st, with brief and simple «ere monies. An effort was made by the Indianapolis (Ind.) board of trade to have the secretary of the treasury send currency to that city to pay the $3,000,000 in pensions falling due on the 4th. but it failed, and the payments will be made by checks upon the Xew York subtreasury. This is made necessary by the failure of the Indianapolis national bank, the government depository in that pity. The North Herman Lloyd steamer Spree, which sailed on the 2d from Southampton for Xew York, had on | board £850,000, consigned to American houses. The White Star liner Majestic, Which left Liverpool on the same day for New York, brought £350,000, a total of £1,200,000 shipped on the 2d. The return tide of .the precious metal seems to have set in in earnest. Secretary Carlisle, who was in Xew York city on the 2d, remained in the Fifth Avenue hotel all day. receivlnany visitors. To only two of these did he give much time, and he denied himself to many others. Newspaper men he refused to see, giving as a reason want of time. Several warrants have been sworn out and some arrests made of Columbian Athletic club officials and participants in the late prize fights in Lake county, Ind. The directors of the Bank of Commerce of Indianapolis, Ind., decided, on the 2d, to re-open the bank. Levi P. Morton's immense new barn and outbuildings at Rhinebeck. X.

On the 2d the amount in the treasury was $100,791,370, or $791,370 free gold. This gold has come into the United States from Europe, Mexico and the West Indies, much of it being the gold sent out from the United States during the late snring and early summer months.

Col. Charles - H. Jones, late managing editor of the St. Louis Republic, has assumed the position of editor and personal representative of Mr. Joseph Pulitzer on the New York World. Col. Jones will direct the editorial policy of the World, the editorial “junta,” com.posed of heads of departments in the. office, being abolished. The circulation statement issued by the treasury department on the 2d showed that the amount of gold and silver coin and certificates, United States notes and national bank notes in circulation August 1 was *1,611,099.117. an increase during the month of J uly of $17,237,606. The increase during the last twelve months ‘in round figures is $9,000,000. The per capita circulation, based on an estimated population of 67,000,000 August -1, was *34.03. It transpires that the active intervention of President Carnot alone prevented a ministerial crisis in France and probably a different issue out of the Siamese trouble. M. Delcasse, supported by a majority of the ministers, stubbornly insisted that harsher terms l>e exacted from Siam as a stepping stone to a French protectorate, but the president would not consent. Mgr. Satolli returned to Washington, on the 3d, after an extended tour through the west and northwest. He expressed himself as being much pleased with his trip. Mgr. Satolli de- j dined to talk about the telegrams from Minneapolis which imputed to him an intention to recommend the appointment of coadjutor to Archbishop Corrigan of New York. The works in Jersey City, N. J., of the New York Standard . Watch Co., have closed for an indefinite period, j throwing out of employment over 350 men and boys. The shut-down is attributed to stringency in the money market. '

The Carpenter Steel Co., of Reading, Pa., announced, on the 3d, that by reason of new contracts they would pnt in operation twelve new crucible furnaces and give employment to many new hands.

Many n«w faces aid many familiar in former years, but missing from their places for one or more terms, were observed among the mejnbers present. The government has now on hand about’ 130,000,000 ounces of fine silver, costing $118,000,000. The coinage value of the bullion on hand is about $167,000,000. If this were coined the government would realize a profit of about $48,000,000, against which silver certificates could be issued; but it is estimated that this, with the present force, would consume five years.

Self Freerrvstio i. LorisvnJt.E, Ky., Aug. 7.—A special from torydon, Ind.. brings the startling news of the slaughter of a lynching party by two men whom they were trying to lynch for the murder of their father. The fearful affray took place near Laconia, about sixteen miles from this place, on Saturday night. Four men were instantly killed, one fatally wounded and several other* more or Iessinjured. William and Sam Conrad were the murderers whom the mob intended to string up. Several weeks ago the father of these men was foully murdered. His dead body was found in a wood with his skull crushed. Suspicion at once fell on the sons, who are desperate characters. They were arrested, but on their preliminary hearing were discharged for want of evidence. Indignation ran high among the people nhd Saturday night a mob guttiered for the purpose of lynching tire Conrads. The house where the m*-n lived was att teked. but the Conrads had been warned and were prepared. As the mob advanced on the house they poured a deadly volley into its ranks. Four men dropped dead in their tracks and several fell wonnded. The Conrads then fled while the unharmed were caring for the dead and lying. The four men killed are:

rae iiusuu. John Timberlake. Will Wiseman. Isiw Howe. Will May was fatally wounded. Excitement runs high. Armed bands Lire .y-oarmj the country for the Conrans. If caught they will be instantly j. killed. At the preliminary trial of the Conrad boys for murdering their father, it was elaimed that while ont in the woods chopping wood a dispute arose among them in which the old man was killed by the sons. The brother* claimed at the trial that the old man fell against the store in their house and sustained injuries which caused his death. Mrs. Conrad's testimony was in favor of*fhe boys* story, and while it was generally believed that they were guilty the justice could dp nothing under the circumstances but discharge them. Since that time the feeling against the Conrads has been growing stronger, and they had received several • letters from whitecaps warning them to leave the neighborhood or suffer the consequences. They did not obey the request. but, on the contrary, said they would be prepared for any visitation from the night raiders. Several days ago a barn and its contents belonging to a man named Frakes. residing near the Conrads, was burned, and the Conrads were accused* of the act This^ they denied. Last week they nmffea trip to Elizabeth, Harrison counlv, and purchased a large supply of buckshot in anticipation of a whitecap visitation, as they had just received mother notice couched in stronger terms, in which it was threatened that in addition to being switched on the bareback they would be hanged. When the gang approached and stepped on the porch they demanded admittance. At that instant the Conrads tired. Their bullets found lodgment in the bodies of the mob. and two men fell dead on the porch. Two others were found several hours later a few hundred yards distant from the house, stone dead. All. it is said, were well-to-do farmers in that section. Howe was SOyabrsold and leaves a family. He was a brother of John Howe, who is a (.bartender in James Uarbeson’s saloon on West Main street, in New Albany. He was constable of lloone township and highly respected. The home of the Conrads is in the very wilds of Harrison county and almost inaccessible to the county seat, Corydon. It is near the river and a mMe distant from any other habitation on the banks of Mosquito creek. A rough wagon road, which is almost impassable, leads past the honscft Another report was brought to New Albany by James Wolpert, who resides on East Thirteenth and Spring streets, and who was visiting Saturday in Elizabeth, several miles south of Con

*UUO UVUOV« ASV U1.'VU «« utguu a Commercial reporter. He says that after the Conrads had received warning of the visit, they hid themselves under a porch in the front part of the house. They had made several augur holes in the flooring of the porch through which the muzzles of their guns could be thrust and fired at close range with deadly execution. Houston was the son of Rev. W. F. Houston and was about 2S years old and unmarried. Rev. Houston was killed about fifteen years ago in a runaway accident, the wagon running over him and mashing his skull. Will May was about 25 years old, and was engaged to lie married to Miss Lou Collins, a young lady of that neighborhood. Timberlake was the oldest one of the crowd, and was about SI years of age and unmarried. It was also reported that Mrs. Conrad was injured in the fight. After the discharge of the fire-arms the rest of the gang fled. The Conrad's have disappeared from the neighborhood and will probably never return unless captured and brought back for trial. Additional Suits Against Fa—tc* City iftnk Officials. Kansas Citt, Mo..
