A PANIC PREDICTED.
England is Making Large Shipments of
Gold to The United States in, Ex-
change for Our Grain.
Want Mrs. Maybrick Pardoned The
Washington Democratic Clubs
, Meet at Spokane.
Reciprocit,y4B. Part Only The Coast to
Be Recognized at Last All Quiet"
at , Oklahoma.
London, Sept. 23. Representatives of
the associated press had an interview
with Rothschilds, Speyers, Lozard Bros,
and other bankers, and they all agreed
in their statements that further large
shipments of gold was going to America.
Rothschild despatched an additional
hundred thousand pounds today. In an
interview with Robert Giffen, head of
the commercial department and comp
troller of the coin returns of the British
board of trade, he was. asked what truth
there was in calculation that England
and the continent would be forced to
part with gold amounting to sixty mil
lion pounds to pay for imports of Amer
ican grain. Giffen ridiculed the esti
mate. He said before ten million
pounds in bullion was sent to America,
both the bank of England and the bank
of France would raise their rates of dis
count and check the drain. According
to Griffon, not bullion but securities,
and export; will go to America to pay
for grain. An important factor, in the
financial situation was the silver ques
tion. American houses, he declared,
were making preparations to face the
silver crisis which is now inevitable, by
making gold purchases in Europe.
When asked if such a crisis was inevita
ble, Giffen replied : "In my opinion it
is impossible to ..avert, it. The United
States has become overloaded with paper
currency . The issue of silver certificates
to the amount of 12,000,000 pounds ster
ling, annually,' was a gross legislative
mistake and is bound to bring a crash
speedily. Next February will probably
realize the worst of the position.
Want Mr 8. Maybrick Pardoned.
Bab Harbob, Maine, Sept. 23. The
case of Mrs. Maybrick,accused of poison
ing her husband in England and sen
tenced to penal servitude for' life, was
some time ago brought to the attention
of Mrs. Blaine. She, together with
Secretary Blaine, became deeply inter
ested in it. .About two weeks ago a pe
tition for Mrs. May brick's pardon, signed
by Mrs. Harrison and tbe wives of the
members of the cabinet was sent to
Minister Lincoln for presentation to the
queen. '
Democrat at Spokane.
Spokane, Sept. 23 This city is filled
with dolegates to the state convention of

of the state are here. Senator Faulkner
of West Virginia, Congressman Bynuro
of Indiana, and C. F. Black, president
of the National association, arrived this
morning. At one o'clock the conven
tion met at the auditorium. The ad
dress of welcome was delivered by Sena
tor Drum. Ex-President Cleveland this
morning sent a telegram of congratula
tiona and hope.
Reciprocity in Part Only.
' City ok Mexico, Sept. 23. Well in
formed persons say the reciprocity
treaty between Mexico and the United
States will be only partial as the ques
tion, will not be discussed, the only sub
ject for discussion being what compensa
tion Mexico shall giv to the United
States for free admisson of hides, sugar
and coffee.'

Sir John (lorst'x Kombehcll.
' London, Sept. 22. Sir John Gorst has
cast a bombshell into the .conservative
camp by his utterance on the ' necessity
of making popular the ownership of tllte
land. The favorite tory remedy for ov
ercrowding is emigration.. While the
liberals have never come out boldly in
favor of the division of the soil among
the people and the multiplication- of
small owners, they have claimed that
emigration was not the proper remedy
and that there was room enough in Eng
land for Englishmen. Now Sir John
dares to say what the liberals have hin
ted at, that the private parks and re
serves must be cut up as homes for the
people, and the people must be given a
chance to become owners. If Sir John
remains in the service of the tory cabi
net, it is only because they are afraid to
drop him out.
The Celebration at Chicago.
Chicago, Sept. 22. The colored peo
ple celebrated Emancipation day with a
mass meeting and picnic at Osgood's
grove. Congressman Miller, of Beau
ford county, South Carolina, was the
orator of the day. He eulogized Abra
ham Lincoln and speaking of the South,
said :
The New South is a frail child and is
ill formed. Its blood is tainted. It is
strong, but lacks endurance. It is as
much your duty today to assist in train
ing ana developing this partly-spoiled
youth as it was late in the fifties to edu
cate, through your patron saint, the
nation up to the point of emancipation
of slaves and the preservation of the
Union. Omit and the work will have
to be done over again in the same way
as it was finished in Appomattox.

Falling; Off in Imports of Raisins.
New York, sept. 22. The Commercial
Bulletin says ; "The exports of raisins
from Denia thus far have been only 50,
000 b6xes for America, whereas for a
corresponding period last ysar 468,000
boxes were in transit. It is evident
from this that the competition ot Call

tity."

TROUBLE FOR TURKEY.
The Capture of Sana by the Rebels is
a Serious Blow to Turkish
Rule in Arabia.
De Briggs Has Returned and Will Take
Charge of His Own Case A
Wonderful Escape.
More War Talk, by a Grand Duke
The Farmers' Alliance's Meet
ings in California. '
London, Sept. 22. The news of the
capture of Sana by the rebels in Yemen,
says a Constantinople dispatch, is al
most a stunning blow to the Sultan, who
for weeks past has been plunged in anx
iety over the situation in Arabia. Wes
tern Europeans are hardly capable of
appreciating the Saltan's feelings on
this subject, but to him the fate of Ara
bia is of more importance even than that
of Constantinople. Should he lose con
trol of the holy cities of the Mohamme
dan faith, he would be divested of all
prestige and become ' an object of con
tempt and abhorrence to his subjects.
His anxiety regarding this matter is so
strong that it has nearly driven him in
sane. Sana is the key to Yemen, and
the loss of this is a most overwhelming
blow to Turkish supremacy in that rich
and fertile province, and" may . lead to
the loss of all Arabia. That country
now contains several emirs who ignore
the authority of the porte, and if these
should unite against Turkey, the
sultan would have a difficult war on his
hands. The Turkish troops in Yemen
went there without provisions or money,
with orders to live on the country. They
won some success at first, but 'probably
disheartened by their own condition,
they appear to have lost ground. 'Should
Arabia be separated from the porte, the
religious passions such an event Would
excite, in the, opinion of Europeans at
Constantinople, would imperil the life as
well as the throne of the sultan.
DR. I5KIGGS RETURNS. .
He Will Take Charge of the Case Him
self and Conduct his Own Defense.
New Yobk, Sept. 22. Dr. Charles
Augustus Briggs returned today on .the
steamship Servia from his summer va
cation in England. Dr. Briggs went
abroad last May with his daughter, im
mediately after lim trial for heresy was
ordered in the presbytery. He said
today :
"I have been greatly benefited by rest
and the change of air." I went to Oxford
expecting to do some work on a Hebrew
lexicon in which I am interested, but
for two months I could do nothing bnt
rest. 1 am not informed of the events
in America in connection with my cage,
nor do I know what my friends hare
done in preparation for the trial, I shall
take charge of the case myself, and
shall conduct mv defense in my own be
half. I am glad of the opportunity of
fered to me by this trial to explain my
views to the presbytery. I never had
this opportunity, and when the com
mittee have given their construction of
what I have written I shall give mine.
Of course, this will give my views wider
publicity than they have had heretofore.
They are at present known to the schol
ars, but the general public has not had.
my side yet."
The trial of Dr. Briggs will begin. Mon
day, October 5.

"We must regard the future with xm
