Dlfltorciice Between This Aud tliellal
tlmoro 1'Ibii The Vltlmate Liabil
ity lMui'cd on the Huukn, Not on the
Govcriimont-ElnHtlclty of the Cur
rency. Washington, Dec. 10. Standing at
the foot of the long table in the wars
and means committee room of the House
this morning Secretary Carlisle explained
in detail to the banking and currency
committee the plan recommended by bim
for a new bunking law. AH of the sev
enteen members of the committee except
four were in their seats at early at 10
o'cljck.
The hearing attracted a large number
of representatives in addition to the
members ol the committee. Among
those present were Wilson, West Vir
ginia; Hooker, New York; Snot's,;??.
Kentucky; Turner, Georgia. J. K. Cow
en, of Baltimore, member-elect of the next
Congress, and Senor Romeo, Mexican
miuister, were also in attendance.
When the comnrttee was called to
order Secretary Carlisle was asked by
Chairman Springer to explain what
would be the practical workings of his
currency plan. In answer Carlisle said
he had come to answer questions ol the
cninutue and to make a statement ol
his plan, but not to indulge in a general
argument, as that had been done already
in his annual report. Proceeding to take
un his urgument seriatim as they ap
pealed in bis report, Carlisle read the
first two, as follows:
1. Kepeal all laws requiring or author
izing the deposit of United States bonds
as security for circulation.
2. Permit national banks to Issue
tiule to an amount not exceeding 75
per tent, ot tluir pnidup and unimpaired
capital, but require each bank bclorc re
ceiving notes to deposit a guarantee
hind, consisting of l.'uited States legal
tender notes, including treasury notes
ol le'JU, to the amount ol ISO per cent,
upon the circulation notes applied for.
This iiercentugc of deposits upon circu
lating notes outstanding to be main
tained at all times, and whenever a bank
retins its circulation, in whole or in
part, its guarantee fund is to be returned
to it in proportion to the amount of
notes retired.
In explanation Carlisle said it had
come to be almost generally believed
that ihnt provision ol the law nquiring
a ill posit ol l nitetl Mutts bonds as
curitv for circulation was a failure. He
believed it prevented elasticity of the cur
renc.
Pasting, without further comment, to
i the sicond suggestion, Carlisle said he
I In lie vi (1 tint tine proposition was per
il ctly sale in BunrauUeing surety ol de
pository. The treasury reserve, he
thought, should uot exceed more than
one-hall of the outstanding ciiculution
ot the national Dunks.
Springer asked Carlisle to explain the
difference between his plan fur retiring
circulation and that of the Baltimore
bankers, and the Secretary gave a brief
sketch of each. The Dultimorc plan, he
said, provided for a circulation up to 50
per cent, ol the capital stock of the
batiks without any deposit whatever,
but subject to a tax, the fund raised
from which was to used in relieving the
funds of failed national banks. If this
did not become large enough, the gov
ernment is lo relieve the lund, looking to
the banks lor repayment. The govern
ment plan was that a separate fund of
30 per cent, of circulation should be held
for each hank, and in addition there
should he a safety fund, raised like that
of the Baltimore plan. Hut if this fund
should not prove large enough the treas
ury department might assess the nation
al banks pto rata on circulation. The
government, t hrough this means, could
lose nothing.
In furticr explanation Carlisle said
that the banks by his plan are called
upon to keep a safety fund intact; in the
Baltimore plan, the government was re
quired to do this. "My plan," said the
Secretary, "requites the National bank
ing system to support itself entirely, and
relieves the government ol all connection
with the system except to lurnisb the
notes and hold the safety fund."
Carlisle said his plan did away with
tbe present system of redemption of Na
tional bank notes. At present the Na
tional banks could send their mutilated
notes to the treasury and receive in re
turn new notes. By the new plan the
government was divorced entirely from
the redemption of those National bank
notes; the government was relieved of nil
rcspont ibility in the matter.
In answer to lohnson of Indiana, Car
lisle said that the idea of the plan was
that the stronger banks should carry
weaker. Il a bank failed so badly that
it could not pay its notes, the ultimate
liability was placed, by the Baltimore
plan, on the government; by the plan
proposed by himsell, the ultimate liability
was placed on the banks.
Johnson wanted to know if Carlisle
thought the banks would agree to this.
and the Secretary answered that the
banks must speak lor themselves; he
was looking out for the interests of the
government.

Will Cleveland ('nil CowrregM In Extra
SommIou Alter March a, ISOSI
Washington, Dec. 8. There is division
among the Virginia and North Carolina
members of the House on the proposed
plan of Secretary Carlisle's to settle tbe
financial question. For this reason sonic
ol the members from the two States, if
not a majority in each delegation, are
are.se ut this time to expressing opin
ions for publication. Naturally they
hope the party can get together and do
something during the session, so as to
hnve the vexations question settled
while all the branches of the soverument
are controlled by tbe Democrats.
"If we fail to legislate at this session,"
remarked a Virginia Congressman todav,
"I believe President Cleveland will call
Conirress together in special session
shortly alter tbe 4th of March. That
would be an unlortunate circumstance,
for in such an event the President wonld
have to rely on the co-operation of the
Republican party to carry out tbe finan
cial policies of his administration,"

EX-SHKIUFF WOltLEV DEAD.
He Hod Boon Afflicted Mentally Aud
Physical ly a Tear or More.
Ei-Sheriff W. J. Worley, one of the best
known citizens of Buncombe county,
died at bis home in West Asheville Satur
day afternoon at 4 o'clock. Mr. W orley
bad been in ill health for several year,
and bis familiar 6gure was seen on the
streets more and more infrequently. A
year or more ago his mind became
affected, and from that time be was
almost constantly under the watchful
eye of some member of tbe family.
Ten days ago, Mr, Worley, while there
was no one with him, fell into tbe fire
and was badly burned before the accident
was discovered. This, it is believed,
bastcued his death.
The funeral services over the remains
were conducted yesterday afternoon bv
Rev. I. R. Cannon, on Sandy Mush,
where the interment occurred at 4
o'clock.
Wiley lackson Worley was born in
Sandy Mush township, Buncombe coun
ty, about 67 years ago. He lived on his
farm until the campaign of 1886, when
he wasnotninated for sheriff of Buncombe
on the Republican ticket. He was elected,
and since that time had made his home
near Asheville. He was too "easy" a
man for the position he could ecu reel v
refuse a man when asked to put off the
collection of taxes (this was before Bun
combe bad a tax collector in a separate
office) and the good old man seriously
injured himself financially by reason of
holding the othce.
Mr. Worley was a veteran of the Mex
ican war, having served in tbe late Col.
Fagg's regiment. He was also in the
Union army a year. He wus a kind
hearted man, and claimed evervbody
who knew him as his friend. In tbe
earlier part of bis life be had been one of
the county's leading farmers. His demise
is the cause of universal regret on the
part of his wide circle of friends.
Mr. Worley married Miss Rachel
Reeves, who, with several children, sur
vives him. Among the children arc Mrs.
Frank Fanning, Mtses Leila and Ida
Worley and Messrs. W. M. and James
Worley.

StorcH Sunday.
i'lve colored bovs, realizing , the ap
proach of Christmas and having a con
tempt for the law, Sunday morning
about 7 o clock pried open a rear win
dow of 49 Pntton avenue, occupied by
the stocks of R. II. Hudson and H. A.
Lindsev, and proceeded to help them
selves. The young pilferers took from
Mr Hudson a lot of firecrackers, big and
little, candies, ngs, and other things cat
ctilaird to help on the Christmas cheer
in all $18 or $i0 worth. From Mr.
Lindsev they took a ring and several
scarf pius. The till on Mr. Hudson's
side was tapped but nothing was gained.
A part of the delegation went off to
hide their portion of the goods, leaving
two of the boys holding down a box ol
oranges and goodies. A colored man of
the name of Ballard came up and notic
ing something suspicious plied the boys
with questions. While he examined the
stores the boys took to their heels and
escaped, Ballard going to inform Mr.
Hudson.
But lor the appearance of Ballard the
thieves might have gotten away with
the articles, but they had not time to
hide them and a good proportion was
recovered some being found in the rear
of the stores and a quantity where it
hud been hidden in rear of Moorman's
factory, near Water street.
Lome of the boys were iccoguized and
the police are alter them.

Shrewd tiiimo.
New Yokk, D;c. 10. The most heart
less trick yet played on the people of this
country came to a climax Saturday on
the stock exchange. II. O. Havemeyer,
the head of the sugar trust, and his
friends have finished their game and
pocketed their immense gains, thought
to reach into the millions. For weeks
Mr. Havemeyer proclaimed that the su
gar industry was practically on the edge
of bankruptcy; that it was rapidly suc
cumbing to tbe ill treatment he alleged
it had received from the Congress, and
finally he made his bold stroke of pre
tending to discbarge all bands from the
sugar refineries of the trust, and talked
of closing these vast hives up for an in
definite period.
All this talk was a mere stock-jobbing
ruse intruded to do nothing more than
to break tbe price of sugar certificates in
the stock market and so enable Mr.
Havemevcraud his followers to set back
at a low figure the stock they bad doled
out to tbe public at prices fir above par.
The price of 70 or 7o was whispered as
the proper figure to which sugar should
slump, and it started towards that point
at a rapid gait. There was a strong op
position, however, and it reached a low
turning point at 82, and then for several
days there were cleverly scattered points
about a reduction of the quarterly divi
dend which was due about this time.
Friday the managers got together to
decide on the dividend. After the full
dav had been usee' bv Havemever through
his well-posted brokers, and suear had
climbed to HO on transactions of about
175,000 shares, came the voice from tbe
board room that the dividend should re
main as at present 7 per cent, per
annum on the prclerrcd and 12 per cent.
on the common. In declaring the com
mon dividend the explanation was tacked
in to the declaration that the dividend
was "on earnings prior to Sept. 1."
This is one of the fattest monopolies
the world lias ever known. The stock
has been keep in violent ebullition on the
stock exchange, and Iluvemeter has al
ways been on the winning side there, so
that n grand profit of $50,000,000
would not be out of the way as repre
senting what sugar lias brought to the
Havemeyer parte.
