New Yokk, June 3. Harold Frederic
cables on the time from London :
"The reassembling thia week of tbe
common after the holiday leaves an
extremely grim impression of Gladstone.
For the first time he seema to acknow
ledge bia age and bow before the im
pending shear. An old man, always
courtesy itself, he seems to have taken
on the transfiguration garment. He is
as subtle and dexterous a of yore, but
he is etherealized and deprecatory,
rising with a warning finger like an
ancient sibyl, to lebuke his unruly
opponents, who shrink before his sp-
purition as from a ghost, and grow silent
w hen he rises in the atormiet moments
of the houtte, and with its weird aspect
cothe bitterest of his enemies. But
it is a purely pergonal feeling, and stays
no movement of the genera! obstruction.
Conversely to the saying spread of old
that the beloved apostle will not die,
rumor whisper among the Gladutonian
disciplies that the old man is going.

Chicaoo, June (i. When Governor
Nelson, of Minnesota, called the' anti
trust convention to order today it was
existed that the first fight of the session
would begin, or it was generally known
that the Donnelly or radical faction
had been beaten in the committee of
resolutions and would carry the fight to
the floor of the convention. Chairman
Kosewater of the committee of re sol u
tions, no sooner read the preamble than
Ponnelly moved as a substitute, a de
mand for the government to purchase
anthracite coal lands. Henry D. Loyd,
of Chicago, wanted bituminous lands
also purchased and the fight on these
two amendments lusted two hours after
which Kosewater moved the previous
question and the committee report was
carried. Tiie fight was kept up all day,
by the extremists, but they were out
voted at everv turn.
The resolutions adopted set forth at
length the evils of the trust B.vstem as at
present maintained and calls upon the
convention to create a permanent associ
ation to be known as the anti trust
association of the United States, con
sisting of three representatives from
each state and territory. The resolu
tions declare over capitalization of cor
porate proorty largely responsible for
tha breaking down of credits and the
financial distress now prevailing.
These resolutions were not radical
enough to suit the I)onnelly-Weaver ele
ment and they gave notice of another
meeting in the I'almer house tonight,
ltefore the close of the Central hull
meeting, J. M. (uinn, of Butteville,
Montana, ottered a free coinage resolu
tion which passed by a small majority.
Bolters to the number of thirty, rep
resenting thirteen states organized at

all populists. General Weaver of Iowa,
was elected chairman. Ignatius Don
nelly and others made speeches.

Pittsburg, June 3. All charges of
murder, etc., against II. S. Fricke and
others of the Carnegie Steel Company
officials, as well as the Pinkerton de
tectives, were dropped in court this
morning. In turn, all of the strikers
who had been arrested, and were as yet
untried, have been released on their own
recognizances. This virtually ends all
of the Homestead cases in connection
with the big strike of lust year.
Orer 1000 Milei Day.
New York, June 2. The Lake Shore
exposition flyer pulled into New York (
might be his last, and deferentially
listen to the voice that falls now- and
ttien, but is eked out with gracious
gesture . Nobody dreams of complaining
that he cannot hear, while strangers in
the gallery look appalled at tbe dumb
show, and reporters compare notes lo
collate each syllable. There is mur
muring that Gladstone's 8ieeches get
harder and harder to take.
Bottom Oat of Wheat.
Chicago, June 2. A new low record
was made tody on the Chicago wheat
market. There was unwonted excite
ment and small failures. A panicky,
bearish feeling prevailed to such an
extent that selling was probably much
overdone. The market started today
with a rebound of five-eights of a cent
from last night's closing. July sold at
09 5-8 and September at 73 1-8. Then
began tbe selling and tumbling. The
early advance was wiped out when
Manager Powell poeted the firm of
Kellogg & Forsythe as not meeting their
debit balance. The firm waa email and
the failure insignificient but the fear
that other small failures might follow
made trade unduly excited. The de
cline went on until June touched 60
cents, a price never before reached in
this market; July 661-8; September 71
1-2. There was less than a quarter of a
cent recovery at the close. One of the
weakest factors in the situation was the
sharp break in local securities on ex
change. The aggregate depreciation
since May 2d is close to $23,000,000.
Cl.r.land for 1896.
Nkw York, June 3. The Herald's
Cnicago spcciul quotes Governor Flower
as sayimr in an interview:
"There is no reason whv Cleveland
should not be the nominee of the party
in lS'.H!. One presidential term has
intervened between the two administra
tions. It would take another term before
he had served two consecutive ones. If
in 18 Cleveland desires the nomination
of his party, no man can successfully
stand in his way. At the present time
I do not know of any aspirants for presi
dential honors in the purtv. I know ef
no true democrat of New York who today
does not give the president his hearty
support."
The Next Sesiion
Washington. June 6. The Star says:
President Cleveland's statement as to
the time when he proposed to call con
gress together and the reasons which
will lead him to do so, is clearly inter
p re table as indicating a determination
on his part to continue using the gold
reserve to the extent necessarp and not
issue bonds. He desires that the full
gravity of the situation be apparent at
ttie time ot the meeting of congress so
that the legislative branch of the gov
ernment shall have the duty pressing
upon it to correct laws protecting finances.

Washiwotosc, June 3. At no tim
since specie payment were resumed on
January 1, 1879, has the net gold in the
treasury of the United States been so
low as it ia today. The amount is (80,8.19,
217. On January 1, $114,lil3,M.
Since that period it gradually increased
until March, 18H8, when it reached $218
818,000, which was high water mark.
Since then the net gold holdings of the
treasury have been on the declining
scale. While no uneasiness Is ielt at
the treasury department because of con
tinued lose of gold from the treasury,
till Secretary Carlisle Is not unmindful
of the fact that the limit may be reached
where tbe confidence reposed in the
treasury by the people may be shaken.
How to replenish the treasury with
gold has been a problem seriously con
sidered by the administration for some
time. An issue of bonds is the remedy
usually suggested, but it ia known that
the president is not in favor of thi
alternative except as a last resort, and
even then if they he issued treasury
officials are not by any means confident
that the treasury gold repleted in thia
way will long continue. It ia con
tended that the laws in force simply
mean the government must borrow gold
at interest for the purchase of silver with
no assurance that the gold so obtained
will remain in the treasury longer than
the time necessary to take it out.
The suggestion has been made that
tbe secretary of the treasury has power
to issue greebacks in exchange for gold,
thua increasing the amount of gold, and
increase the volume of greenbacks out
standing to the extent of tbe gold thus
exchanged. The treasury officials eay
that the idea is not a new one and has
been advanced at different times in tbe
past ten days.
There is no law on the statute books
more stringent than that relating to
greenbacks. The secretary of tbe
trersury has no discretion either to in
crease or diminish tbe volume of greenbacks.
Sink of Sp.kue Filli.
Spokane, Wash., June 5. This morn
ing the Bank of Spokane Falls failed to
open its doors for business at the usual
hour. The news spread rapidly, and ex
cited widespread regret, but little or
no excitement. There was an entire
absence of scenes and incidents that us
ually attend such suspensions. Confi
dence in the ability of the bank to pay
dollar for dollar, with interest, on all
claims, and faith in Mr. Cannon's private
fortune and sterling integrity, and ability
as a debt-payer, were everywhere ex
pressed. This exerted a tonic effect, in
striking contrast to the general alarm
that usually follows the announcement of
a bank's suspension. There were no
crowds around the bank, and none gath
ered to discuss the affair. The feeling
was altogether one of sympathy for Mr.
Cannon, and confidence both in him and
the other banks of the city. Mr. Can
non remained at his home during the
day, where he received a large number
of his friends. Without exception be
was the recipient of expressions of
sympathy and confidence.
Edwin Booth Deid.
New York, June 6. Booth's physician
issued a bulletin this morning saying
there was no change in his condition
since last r.ight, and that he had been
unconscious since Monday. Booth's
sleep was fitful during the night, inter
rupted by an exhausting fit of coughing.
It is not thought possible he can" live
longer than midnight, if that long.
Already he is practically dead, being
entirely unconscious. No solid food baa
passed his lips for days.
New York, June 7. Edwin Booth :

San Francisco, June 6. A morning

25th inst. and after taking fresh supplies
hero leave for Portland, Oregon. She
will go direct from here to Astoria, pro
ceeding up the Columbia and Wil

Washington, June 3. The secretary
of war has issued orders placing Briga
dier.General W, P. Carlin, recently pro
moted, in command of the department
of the Columbia, with headquarters at
Vancouver, Wash., relieving Brigadier
General Rnger from further temporary
duty in that department.
