bother About 8 Per Cents

WASHINGTON, Sept. 23.-Inquiry was
made at the treasury department to-day in
regard to the published statement that the
national banks are being greatly disturbed
by the calling in of the per cent bonds,
which form The principal basis of their cir
culation. 1t was learned that several of
these institutions have given notice of with
drawal from the system, and that others
are trying to have their called bonds re-
tanned as basis for circulation, preferring
to foregO interest altogether, rather than
risk buying and ~ per cents at the pres
ent high premium. 1t has Away been held
by the treasury department that when
bonds cease to bear interest they become
unavailable as basis for circulation. This
ruling, however, has lately been contested
by some of the banks and the question has
been
REFERRED TO THE ATTORNEY GENERAL
for an opinion. Until this decision is rem
dered the department must of course
adhere to its practice. In many cases,
however, the banks whose bonds have been
called are deferring their replacement. ex-
pecting, apparently, decision allowing
those bonds to remain. In the meantime
the comptroller of the currency. the treas
urer and the register are so busily engaged
with requirements and Withdrawals that it
is not considered likely that the department
will be very exacting with the banks that
have failed to surrender their called bonds.
A letter was received to-day from leading
financier of New York suggesting that as
the exchange of bonds will lock up good
deal of money just at this time. when it is
in great need in the moving of crops, ETC..
it would not be well for the government to
force the banks beyond a reasonable degree
of diligence in substituting other bonds for
called threes. 1t is understood that the
question will be left open until the return
of Attorney General Garland, who is ex-
pected back about Oct. /.

OTTAWA, Ont, Sept. 29.-That the visit
of Sir Charles Upper, Canadian high COM
missioner in England. here at this time had
some political significance of great import,
no one has been prepared to deny. 1t now
turns out that the object of his coming was
to confer with the cabinet as to the question
of new commercial treaty between En-
gland and the United States, by the condi-
tons of which Canada would be greatly af
fected in her trade relations. A prominent
politician and official in high standing in
formed your correspondent yesterday after
noon thar for the last six months
representatives of her majesty's govern
ment and United States Minister
Phelps have been in communication looking
toward the making of new treaty, which
should have the effect of promoting better
trade relations On the part of Canada and
to removal of all friction over the fishery
dispute 1t is asserted positively that the
terms of such commercial treaty have been
agreed upon by the representatives of both
parties, and that-so far as England is con-
cerned-it is as good as sanctioned. 1t was
thought advisable, however, to consult the
leading Canadian statesmen as to the posi-
BILE defects and Salutary changes that might
be made. Accordingly, several weeks ago
the foreign secretary sent copy of the
document to Sir John A. Mcdonald, and
since then the cabinet has been consider
ing it. 1t seems the only notifications de-
sired here are greater liberty of trade than
those provided for.
WASHINGTON, Sept. 23.-Nothing can
be learned at the state department respect
ing the new commercial treaty with Great
Britain, described in dispatches from
Ottawa. 1t is neither denied nor admitted
that such treaty is in process of negotia-
ton by Minister Phelps.

the Republicans are not.

EARTHQUAKE shocks.

COLUMBIA. S. c., Sept 2S.-Dr. b. F.
Wiman, of Aiken county, makes the fol-
lowing statement concerning the singular
effects of the earthquake on the night OF
August 81 upon the Rev. W. N. Mosely. a
Methodist minister of that county:
Between IL and o clock on the night of
August 81 was called upon to visit the Rev.
Mr. Mosely who had been taken suddenly
sick during the first shock. / found him in
bed talking cheerfully. He told me at once
that he was not sick; that he never felt bet
ter in his life; that just preceding the shock
of the earthquake he would be seized with a
peculiar ting ling sensation, beginning in his
toes and feet and gradually extending to the
limbs and whole body. While speaking he
suddenly screamed out: another shock is
coming at the same time he grew red in the
face and all the muscles in his body became
convulsed and drawn, and then he appeared
as one under strain or receiving an over
charge of electricity from an electrical bat
terry. A singular fact connected with all
those attacks was that he became aware OF
the approach of a shock a considerable period
of time before other members of the fam
lily. Another sigular thing that L observed
was tn at when the shock was at its height
and the house and furniture were rocking
and rafting, his muscles became relaxed, the
attack passed Off and he declared himself as
feeling all right and was calm and cheerful.
He was certainly suffering from an over
charge of electricity upon an excited and
overstrained nervous system.

the woman at whose house Floyd was stopping
that night is a relative of Bordahl, who went
there for the purpose of inducing Floyd to
leave and that Floyd was the assailant The
latter has not secured bail. The work of
rafting logs will be resumed at Beef Slough

high enough for this purpose for some time,
and there is now good stage of water in the
Mississippi. There are now nearly five hun
dred men at work on the drives on the upper
Chippewa and tributaries, and there is a full
force on the sorting works of the Dells I'm
provement company here. The saw-mills
will all probably run quite late this season,
and there is now little likelihood of a shortage
of logs serious enough to produce any marked

THE LUMBER LOOKOUT.

Business Promises to BE Good. But
There viii BE Limit 10 the
supply.
CHICAGO, Sept. 23.-The Lumber Manu-
facturers association began its annual con-
ventiOn here to-day. President A. &. Van
Schaick, IN his address to the convention,
said:
The lumber trade since 1884 has been less
profitable than any industry which requires
large capital invested and involves many
risks Of loss. For the past two years the
banks have been the custodians of the sur
plus capital of the whole country. but at
present the financial trade flows in the direc-
ton of disbursements, sure indi-
cation of increasing business. Labor
is again fully employed, and capital
seldom remained idle when business can af-
ford 10 pay for its employment. The guam
tty of pine lumber that Will be placed in the
market in 1856 is estimated at about 7,00O.-
O00,O00 feet, which, il correct, is evidence
that the manufacturers OF pine lumber who
now receive only the current price of 1880
for their product. donate to the consumers of
their lumber all the advance in timber since
1880, i'll amount say Sl4,000.000. for 1856. The
timber supply of the Northwest is far too
small for the prospective demand. Mime
sofa has not sufficient pine timber for the
future wants Of her people alone. Niscou-
sin could nOtpOssibly supply the entire future
saS and Missouri, and what her own people
will consume. and how long could Michigan
and Canada supply demands from the
naming states and the export trade with
white pine.
f. 5. HUtchkSs, the secretary, said in his
report that if the estimates of the streams as
supplied Cby individuals were correct, the
lumber producing regions of the Northwest
had hung up a stock of from 1.250 000, 600 to
1900, 0OO, 600 feet of logs in the first of the
present month
