Meanwhile Laz&rd Freres Ship Gold With One Hand, and Deposit With the Other— Financiers, Even, on the Verge of Indignation Against a Seeming Deep Conspiracy—The Syndicate “Ex plains”--Peller ou a Bond Issue. Washington, D. C., Sept. 13.— The announcement that New York banks had deposited *2,400,000 in gold with the promise of a considerable addition to th t amount was quite as much a surprise at the Treasury Department as the* earlier news of the withdrawal of #4,500,000. This prompt action of the banks was favorably commented upon and the feel ing es depression and anxiety that per vaded the department this morning have given place to one of confidence. Even those who by reason of their long ex perience are best able to judge of the situation express themselves at a loss to account for the continued and apparently increasing demands for gold. Never be fore in the history of the department, they say, has the financial condition of the country contained so many contra dictory elements, and nevar before have the officials been unable to give an in telligent forecast of what was likely to aesult from the then existing conditions. At this time, they add, everything seems going counter to the general expectation. Several months ago it was stated that the supply of whiskey withdrawn from bond just prior to the anticipated in crease in the internal revenue tax was about exhausted and that the next few weeks would see a material increase in the revenues from that source. This in crease, however, has fallen far below ex pectations, with no immediate prospect of an advance. The receipts from cus toms sources were also confidently ex pected to advance at a rapid rate It was argued that that stocks of merch andise throughout the country were practically exhausted and that of neces sity importations would show a marked im’provemeiit. It Was predicted also that as the canning season appeared the sugar importations would add materially to the receipts and yet none of these expectations has been fully real zed. Though the receipts from internal reve nue aud customs show some improve metA, there is a wide difference between the actual figures and the confident ex pectations of the officials. Whether the anticipated cotton and grain shipments will relieve the situation, so far as gold exportations are concerned, remains to be seen. The amount of the exportations of gold during the last twenty months is unprecedented. Since Jauuary 1, of last year, the gold coin and bullion exported from the United States aggregate about #169,884,300, while the importations during the name period amount to only #48,813,500, which leaves the excess of exports over imports about #120,470.800. Poller on a Bond-Issue. Toi'Ek a, Kan., Sept. 13.—“1f another issue of bonds is made without the au thority of Congress, I shell) .dvise their repudiatiou,’’ said Senator Pcffer to-day, speaking about the probability of another bond issue to an Associated Press re porter. Sena c r Pc e has kept his eye on the figures which tell of the condition of the gold reserve. None have watched it sliding down below the #100,000,000 mark more anxiously than he. It was he who objected very emphatical y in the I'sited States Senate when the first and subsequent bond issues were made. “I considered the bond issue fraudu leiP,vod I have not changed my position sinoe then. 1 still think that the gov erumeut Las no authority to issue bonds without the concurrence of Congress,' 1 said he. “I am satisfied that there will be another bond issue before October 1, because the syndicate has been given the privilege of taking all the bonds issued before then. There is only one thing which may prevent a bond issue, and that is the fear that they will weaken the Democratic strength. They are making heroic efforts to strangle the free siiv- r sentiment in all the States, aud have to a considerable extent suc ceeded. Look how they squelched it in Kentucky, Arkansas and lowa, and nearly all the other States where tests have beeu made. They are c impelling the silver rneu to go outside tl.e Demo cratie party if they desire i® ad he; o to tba 1 principle. “The leaders think that voters can be whipped into line, and if they find cut that ih e.-u. then lookout for another bond i si’f; • more < .tetober Ist. The pec p’c will oe n e>: all f hry will stand and n > questions are supposed to be asked. At ine last session of Congress I was calied impertinent b- f> ause I asked to have the rami',-, of the bond purchas ers made pu’.ie. If there be an other bmd issue witaoet authority of Congress I intend to introduce a resolu tion" advising the repudiation of the bonds They w*»re issued without au thority art are fraudulent, and the people should not be compel.ed to pay them. This may not sound well, but there is no use of allowing the people to be imposed upon any longer.” “When the first bond isr j was pro posed Secretary Carlisle c no to both Houses of Congress ami <■ h d leigsla t.hc authority fJr the is'u ■. He went so far as to prej . ■ a bid f-'r the purpose and presented it t:> the committee of both the Sen; e and H .use. Congress refusing to act, <* Secretary gave no tice that if he v .re r t authorized by special act he would i‘sue bonds with out utch authority, and he did so. I called aiLt.nt'ou to those facts at the time; charged that these bonds were issued illegally, aud also introduced a resolution instructing the judiciary committee of the Senate to examine aud report whether the Secretary had such authority under existing law, and the committee did not report because they knew there was no such law.” Almost a Black Friday. New York, S9pt. 13 —This day was an exciting one, and for a time bid fair to be a critical one in the financial fie d, so that many feared that it might pass into history as a smaller edition of a certain black Friday of years ago. But to-night the disturbing elements are bet ter understood, and the outlook for the Treasury and the maintenance of its gold reserve is comparatively clear. Uncertainty as to the indication of the government syndicate to maintain the reserve at the contury mark, and as to its ability to do so had disturbed the monied interests increasingly throughout the week. A crisis was reached this morn ing when announcement was made that the firm of Hazard Freres, which is a member of the bond syndicate had en gaged two and a half millions of gold for shipment. This announcement natu rally gave rise to the impression that the syndicate had withdrawn from its con trolling position behind the throne, and it sent quotations tumbling in Wall street, besides starting stories that the syndicate had dissolved, that a bond issue was imminent and that the Treas ury would fast drift back to its old posi tioo of the dark days of last wiater. Before the afternoon had passed, sev eral of the city banks had come to the aid of the sub treasury with deposits of goli made in exchange for greenbacks, explanations had been made by mem bers of the syndicate and the firm which started tne panic, and quiet restored when the monied institutions closed their doors for the day. The gold deposits make by the banks will offset the shipments of to morrow 7 . The Hanover National Bank set example with a deposit of #500,000. Tnat made #3,400,000 in gold that the Hanover Bank has paid in, President Howard said, since the last loan was made. The American Exchange National Bank of Commerce followed with another #200,000 With reference to this deposit, President Sherman said that the #200,000 repre sented one third of his bank's gold hold ings. and that if all the banks contribut ed gold in the same propertion there would be no further difficulty. Tne National City Bank is credited with an intention to deposit a half mil lion or double that amount; It is ex pected in banking circles that the de posits of gold by the banks for green backs will reach $6,000,000 this week. The known shipments to Europe to-raor row- will be: #2,500,000,by Hazard Freres; #1,000,000, by Wm. H. Crossman & Bro ; $600,000 by Hoskier, Wood & Co.; $200,000 by Hard & Rand, and SIOO,OOO by Nesalage & Fuller, while Handy & Harman will forward between $150,000 aud $200,000. This will make a total for the week of $7,200,000, the largest weekly outflow on rocord, except the $7,700,000 sent abroad in one week last January, when the drain upon the re serve reached its highest tide. The Bond Syndicate “Explains.” Explanations of the position of the bond syndicate toward the Treasury of the reasons impelling Hazard Freres to combat the policy of bis colleagues were secured by the Associated Press. The following statement was authorized by the bond syridica’e to night: “The impression has become general that the members of the bond syndicate entered into an agreement with the United States Treasury to maintain the $100,000,000 reserve until October 1, prox . and that upon that date said ob ligation will cease. Such is not the case. “The bond syndicate fulfilled all its obligations to the government in June last aud has not since been bound in any way to the Treasury. It is true that it has from time to time since last June paid over various sums in gold coin to the Treasury which have sufficed to maintain the reserve, but it has done so voluntarily an : will continue so to do on the same spirit and for the save motive. “So far as October 1, is concerned it has no relation to the action of the bond syndicate, and it will continue to de posit gold until November 1, and De cember 1, and January 1, if necessary, and if existing conditions make it feasible to do so* But neither the bond syndicate nor any one else can control tb-.j elemeuts But the idea that its re lations 10 the Treasury situation will be any different on or after October 1, from what they are now and have been all RALEIGH, N. C., SATURDAY, SEPTEMBER >4, 1895 along, is erroneous and should be cor rected.” J. Pierpont Morgan, the head of the bond syndicate, spoke reassuringly of the outlook to a representative of the Asso ciated Press. He said; “The bond syn dicate is still in the field. There shall be no rupture. The syndicate will continue to do all that it can to help maintain the treasury gold reserve at $100,000,000. The obligation of the syndicate expired, however, some time ago.” Mr. Morgan expressed surprise at the slow movement of the cotton crop aud the present scarcity of the bills against bread-stuffs. He said that undoubtedly the offering of these bills would be daily increased in the next few weeks and thus be a safeguard against exports. IgThe following statement was made in writing by Messrs. Hazard Freres : “Hoping that bills of exchange against merchandise exports would come in the market in fair amounts during the first half of September, we continued for a long time to supply our customers with bills of exchange for which we could not at the time find cover. A combination of circumstances leaves the market bare of commercial bills and makes necessary the shipment of gold to cover part of the accumulated indebt edness and to continue supplying the daily demands of the trade.” “The reasons for these conditions are in part the late cotton crop and the slow movement thereof by Europe holding large quantities of cotton at cheap prices, and its indisposition to buy freely at quotations now ruling. Further reasons are the poor demand for our wheat aud the low prices it brings, and the cheapness of money at the centre, which makes it undesirable for European bankers to increase their loanable funds here.” In reply to questions, a member of the firm said he desired to state that there was no special significance in the ship ment of gold but it had to go to meet a temporary emergency, and that with the moviDg of the cottou crop in a few weeks the whole difficulty would adjust itself. Real Estate Chiefly Benefltted by Good Roads. Special to the News and Observer. Washington, D. C., Sept. 13. The makers of the road law were for getful of one material fact. They for got that the making of good roads re dounds to the advantage of the owners of real estate almost exclusively. It is true that the merchants are benefitted, also, since it facilitates intercourse; but the great benc-ficiaries are the owners of the land. If one hundred thousand dollars were expended in making good roads in Wake county, the effect would be to double the value of real estate. It is but right, therefore, that real estate should pay for the improvement of the roads. So far as non land holders are con.erned, the effect would be to make it more difficult for them to buy homes It would double the cost. Daniel R. Goodloe.

Whatever doubt may have existed as to Lord Dunraven’s intentions of racing the Valkyrie in this country again, was dispelled this morn ing by Mr. H. Maitland Kersey.

The races are over and that settles it. 1 have nothing more to say on that point.” New York, Sept 13.—Telegrams ad dressed to correspondents at various points in Central America have failed to bring any verification of the reports of earthquakes with attendant heavy loss ot life in Honduras.

Lawler and staff leave Sunday night' to spend the week at the national encampment of the Sons of Veterans and the last of next week at Chattanooga and tho Chick mauga battlefield. The report of the committee on pen sions says: “We demand for our comrades the just dues which the country gladly con cedes. No niggardly cutting down of pensions under the guise of re issues; no partial and grudging allowances that cut here and there will meet with the full measure of duty that the country owes to its surviving heroes. Nothing short of full measure, dealt with an honest hand, a liberal host will ever meet with approba tion of the American people. For this we appeal to the grateful, patriotic sen timent of the whole people, and we ear nestly believe that our appeal will not be in vain; “Receding from no position that we have heretofore taken, reaffirming all our previous declarations on the subject, we specially demand a liberal and just construction of the laws passed for the benefit of the pensioner to the end that his declining years may not be har rassed with doubts born of distrusts or difficulties thrown around him by a rigorous or restricted construction of the lows passed in tbe past to relieve his condition. ’’ The report was unanimously adopted. Commander-iu-Chief I. N. Walker read the report and was frequently in terrupted by applause. The following were among those elected to the council of administration: H. L. Allen, Florida; H. E. Getty, Vir ginia and North Carolina.

Col# Troy, a Recent Populist, Advises Force at the Polls Under Certain Circumstances. Birmingham, Ala., Sept. 13 Col. D. S. Troy, one of the leading lawyers of the State who recently joined the Popu list party in the interest of honest elec tions and free silver as he said, and whose plan for an honest election aud free silver convention to meet iu Bir mingham, November 13, next, was adopted by the Populists, is out iu a two column article, in the State organ of the Populists, which makes interesting read ing. CcL Troy endeavors to explain under what circumstances the use of force at voting places would be legal aud justifi able. He regards the williul refusal of the county officials to have on the board of election inspectors an intelligent rep resentative of the opposition, whenever practical to do so, as sufficient evidence of fraudulent purpose to debauch the elective franchise; and an honest law abiding citizen, he asserts, has the same right to prevent elections being held by them as he has to prevent any other violation of the law in his presence. He thinks that under these circumstances whatever force is neces sary to stop the election should be used, even though blood has to be shed.

Tne trouble grew out of tire Judge's action disallowing a fee and lecturing the deputy on some alleged irregularity. AMERICAN CONSUL AND WIFE DEAD.

English Opinion of the Yacht Bae°» London, Sept. 13 —The conclusion of the international yacht race for the America’s cup furnishes the text for articles iu all the London afternoon newspapers. Ia general, tire press up holds Lord Duuraveu in his refusal to sail over the course yesterday without a guarantee that it would be clear or excursion steamers aud other craft. Iu a leader, the Pall Mall Gazette, says that the result is unfortunate and that it will deplored quite as deeply by sports men in America as by the same cla-s iu England. In its yachting column the Pall Mall Gazette says: “While in our opinion De fender, under fair conditions, would probably have beaten Valkyrie in at least three out of five races, we cannot but regret that Valkyrie had no chance of sailing under fair conditions. To say that Defender worthily retained the cup would be ridiculous.” The Evening News says that the whole business is in the highest degree dis creditable t® the reputation of Ameri cans as true sportsmen. The Westminister Gazette says: “Os course we all love our America.i friends very much, but our newspapers beg to assure them that we all cordially support Lord Dunraven’s retiring in disgust in a contest requiring so mn ;b rowdiness and unfairness.” PRICE FIVE CENTS. 500 Y.
