- Tiie Alliance Meeting;
at Au End.
Raleigh, N. C., Au. 17; The silver
meeting at which J. C. Sibley, of Penn
sylvania was booked to speak yesterday
was quite seriously interfered with by
forboding" weather. Mr. Sibley Band
Senator Marion Butler, accompanied by
about 1000 people went from here to !
Gary, eight miles distant, where they !
found about 2,000 people. But for the j
weather there would have been at least j
5,000. . Speeches were made in the morn- I
ing by, State Senator S. M. Mewborne,
Ex-president of the State A,lliance, W.'
A. Graham, trustee of the State Al
liance business fund, Cyrus Thompson,
President of the State Alliance and con
testee for the congressional seat from
the third clistrict, and Senator Marion
Butler. At 1 o'clock Senator Butler
introduced i Mr. Sibley who consumed
two and a half hours in speaking, dur
ing part of which time crowds had to
raise umbrellas. But they never moved
from their seats and the speaker took
no apparent notice of the rain. He
dealt with the silver problem almost
exclusively, and what he said was punc
tuated with applause that was limited
only by the capacity of the bands and
lungs of the audience. Save as to the
payment of warm respects to Secretary
Carlisle and John Sherman, the address
was of non-partisan character, and was
a strong appeal for unity of all ele
ments which desire and demanded the
restoration of silver to the position it
occupied in the monetary laws of the
country prior to IS 73. ;
i A SAD CASE.
A Yorinqr 51an Lost-s il is Life in Trying to

excitement ..she held -him too heavily by
the neck and he sank and was drowned.
Just as she was sinking the last tima
?vr. Robert Young came up on the
scene with a battoau and seeing her
long hair in tha water, reachefd down
pulled her out and aha was saved. The

Counties Show Up. :
Cincinnati, O., Aug. 19. The returns
from the county conventions show a
general endorsement of ex-Governor
Jas. E. Campbell for the nomination
for governor at the democratic state
convention next week. Governor Camp
bell said, however, most emphatically
that he could not and would not accept
the nomination if it was tendered him
unanimously. He said candidly that
his only - reason for declining was his
present financial condition, which was
such as to make it impossible for him to
devote his time to politics.
Meantime the fact is published that
his friends have secured a large supply
of lithograph pictures of him and badges
and mean to nominate him. They say
they will see that all his expenses are
borne.-
' Since Congressman Sorg has with
drawn, it is understood that -ex-Governor
Campbell favors the nomination
of Col. Jas. R. Kilbourne, of Columbus,
who is the -candidate of - the Thurmans
and the free silver men.
-The Mahoning delegation announced
that they would present the name of
John II. Clark. V
The Hamilton county delegation,
which includes Cincinnati, voted to
paesent the name of Judge- Hiram D.
Peck. I:' - : ' --
It is said that John II. Thomas is a
candidate for senator against Brice and

The returns from -the country con

county conventions adopted resolutions
condemning Senator Unee's financial
views. : .Some counties that selected frca
silver delegates -indorsed' Brice and

Finaaeier bays thiK week: The stiite
ment of the ase-oelated : bsnds of this
city for the veek ju st nded, reflects in
part the g-old export movement and the
operations of the bond syndicate which
were concluded tire week previous!
That" there is no immediate prospect of
firmer money rates is evidenced in the
increase 2,326,100 in the volume of idle
cash now lying" in the vaults of the
New. York City Banks, making1 the to
tal excess reserve $51.26:3,825.
The banks gained $3,55,933' 'in depos
its during the week and the increase
in lejral tenders was 83,(X0,000.
The distribution of the large per
centnre of money due the banks by the
bond syndicate of course operated ad
versely on the call loan market, but
aside from this ita eifect wa3 not
notice 2. '
Despite the apparent dullness, it is
interesting', to note that the banks are
now "carrying:" 325,030,000 more loans
than at this time last year. Deposits,
notwithstanding1 an increa&e of S3,000,
000 last week, are $7,000,009 less than
for the same week in August, 1391, and
-the excess reserve is between $2(5,000,-'
000 and S-7,000,000 lovyer. r J
