Payment of Interest on Bonds

WASHINGTON, d. c., April IA question re-
garcing the payment ef interest on Government
bonds referred to First Comptroller Law
renee, of the Treasury Department, to-day and is
substantially as follows: "n j. w. N. should pur-
chase Government bonds and register them. as
J. w. n, Trustee for a. N, his daughter, to whom
he desired TO leave themi upon his death, should
the interest he paid directly 10 A. n, on the
death of j. w. N, without requiring any further
papers or proceedings the evidence of the
death of J. W. MS"
Judge Lawrence after examining the law and
ascertaining the legal points involved, decided
that in the case stated J. w. n. would become
Trustee for A. N; that upon the
death of j. w. N. there would be q
vacancy In the Office of Trustee, and
no payment of interest should be made until the
Court having jurisdiction appointed new Trus-
tee or by decree terminated the trust; this, OF
course, on the assumption that there was no writ
ten declaration of the purpose of the trust before
that stated in the question; that il would be
competent for J. w. n. to declare in his bond, or
in a separate written declaration of trust duly
executed and acknowledged, that upon his death
absolute title in the bonds with the right TO in
terest thereon should vest in A n. "If, however +"
the decision concludes, "a. n. was then minor,
the interest could be paid only to guardian until
the age of majority. The donor, J. w. N, could,
in his declaration of the trust name Trustee TO
succeed his rights and act such in the event OF
his death, until A. n should reach her majority
and absolute title should vest in her."

repeated statement has had the effect of putting
on his shoulders greater share OF the response
bIlity for the deadlock than on any other Sena-
tor. 1t is claimed for him that
he has no fear OF an executive session,
because the certainty of a majority and
probably all of the Commerce Committee sustain
him In his opposition to Robertson. At least the
Democratic members of that Committee are with
him in agreeing to hold back Robertson's
nomination until the next session-the only
way by which the nomination can be taken
from the Committee before the latter is ready.
The report Is by majority vote OF the Senate and
no matter how the Republican Senators may feel
they would not carry discord in their ranks at
this time, when harmony is so necessary, by vot-
ing TO take up R0bertsOn's nomination in spite
of the Commerce Committee. Hence the
probable action of the caucus when
tits held will be 10 agree upon the list of unob-
jectonable nominations, including the most i'm
portant ones, and to have one executive session
for the confirmation of these. Should the Senate
Iast through the summer, the Democrats con-
slider they have got the advantage of Malone in
opening and conducting the campaign In Virginia,
because no Democrat will pair with Malone. In
Democratic circles il Is held that his vote
can not be spared, and. therefore, he
can not enter the Virginia campaign in
person unless he breaks the Republican
majority. All evidence goes to show that even
II an executive session be provided for the fight
will continue. as the Republicans intend 10 hold
their control OF business.

Es-President Hayes Temperance.

MINsEAPoLIs, Minn., April 1.-THE MinneapO-
lis Tribune published to-day an extract from a
private letter to its editor from ex-President
Hayes in the course of which he makes the fol-
lowing casual reference to certain published
statements 70 which his attention had beer called
impugning the consistency of his temperance
principles and practices of Mrs. HAYES He says:
with reference to the matter 10 which you call
my attention. have only this to say: When be-
came President / was fully convinced that
whatever might be the case in other
countries and with other people, in our
temperament of our people, the habitual use of
intoxicating drinks was not safe. / regarded the
danger OF the habit especially great in political
and official life 1t seemed 10 me that TO exclude
liquor from the White House would be wise and
useful as an example, and would be approved by
the good people generally. The suggestion was
particularly agreeable to Mrs. Hayes. She had
been a total abstinence woman from childhood.
We had never used liquor in our own home and
1t was determined TO continue our home custom
in this respect in official resi-
dence in Washington had
done at Columbus. i was not a total abstainer
when / became President, but the discussion
which arose over the charge at the Executive
Mansion soon satisfied me tnat there no half
hOnse in the matter.
During the greater part OF my term at least
during the last three years, have been in prac-
tice, in theory, a consistent total abstinence
man, and shall continue to be so. All state
ments, including the one you send me, and incOn-
sistent with the foregoing, are untrue and with

TURKEY.
cHo's EARTHQUAKE.


LONDON, April l6.-A correspondent Of the
Times at Chic says: 81 have now made from
personal observation, and with the help of Others
a pretty thorough canvass of the state of affairs
throughout the Island. The total number dead is
scarcely less than 1900, although some allowance
may be due to the fact that Immediately after the
disaster many persons crossed to the mainland,
and some of those now reported as dead may be
there. The villages on the southern
side of the Island are completely
wrecked, hardly single house being
left standing. The center OF the volcanic action
seems to have been near Nenita, overlooking
Megalo Bay, on the east coast where 500 perished
out of population of 1,200. At Vounos twenty
six pershed out of population of 600; at Phila-
ira, sixty out of 80; at Kalamonti, forty out of
500; at Armilia thirty ont OF co., at Kinney, $50
out of $50 On tie western side OF
the island, at Mesla, many houses
fell, but nobody was killed. At Neshat
three fourths of the buildings were wrecked, but
only one person killed. At Lethi twenty three
persons were killed out of 600, and at Argentina
forty out of 4e0 At Anabatos twelve were killed.
This is the most nOrtherly town on the west side
which suffered severely. The other towns were
severely shaken, but are not in ruins. The Dis
trict of Chic and towns southeast of it suffered
the most OF all.

WASHINGTON, April ia delegation Of Vir-
ginia Republicans, headed by Congressman
Jorgensen, called upon the President today and
begged him not to recognize Malone, or TO en-
courage any Republican coalition with him
Representative Jorgensen was the principal
speaker and he assured the President that Vir-
gina Republicans will not favor any coalition
with Malone. He said the Republicans want a
straight-out Republic ticket, and any attempt
to force an alliance with Malone will be fatal TO
the party. Jorgensen stated that a straight Re-
publican Convention will be held in ninety days
TO nominate a straight Republican ticket for
State officers in Virginia; that il was intended TO
nominate General Wiekham for Governor but
business will prevent him from running, and the
present purpose is to nominate Colonel Mosby,
now Consul at Hong Kong. Instead of appointing
more Readjusters, the delegation urged the
President to remove those now holding office.
The President said he would thoroughly consider
all of the questions and act for the best good of
the Republican party. JOrgensen thinks they
