if motif will certainly come soon after.
An official who is close to Acting Sec
Rotary FAirchild, and who is aequaint-
ed with his plans, said today:
'Money is pouring into the Treasury
much faster than was expected a
month ago, aud it would simply be
criminal not to be paying off the debt.
Importations have been much heavier
than was expected, and the internal
revenue tax is very heavy. There is
no dagger of any shortage in the
Treasury, and the people evidently
demand that the bonds be called"
''DJes Mr.. Fairchild do this on his
own responsibility"
"Well, he can decide 1t, OF couIs',
50 long as he is acting Secretary, but
as q mater Of fact he is acting in ac-
cord with the Presidents wishes, ard
he is in constant correspondence with
Secretary Manning"
us Treasurer Jordan opposed 10
thesa calls?"
"He knows very little about them.
He has not particularly been consult
cd. He went to the Hot Springs, in
North Carolina, the day before the
$4,000 600 call was made, aud be has
not written anything officially upon

A STARTLING STORY.
The Suicide Of DIR. l. l.. Biting, of
Baltimore.

BALTMoRE, Nd, August 25.-The
cautes leading TO the suicide of D..
L. l.. Biting, son OF fhe Rev. DIR.
Biting, Travelling Stcre taiy OF the
Baptist Boarl OF Missions, were ac
first supposed to be disappointment in
love and passion for strong drink.
Now, however, a staltling story is told
in connection with the young mems
suicide. A close confidential friend
OF the Doctor tells the 70 Loving
as the reason Of the young
physician's desire to die.@. About
9 year ago he made the acquaintance
of young lady well known in the
prominent circle ofsuciety iu which he
moved. Their acquaintance coon
ripened into affection, and after a
brief period relations OF the closest
personal intimacy were maintained
between the two. The result Of this
was that the yourg woman became
enceinie. Frightened at the prospect
OF tue disgrace that would overwhelm
her should she become a mother, she
prevailed upon the doctor to perform
en- abortion. The operation was MT
successful, and for long time the
young woman's condition was ex-
tremey critical. The cctor loved the
woman and broodfd over a possible
fatal termination Of her illness. He
was in one of these respondent IN pods
on SATURDAY.. The father Of the gill
knew nor Suspected nothing of the
relations between his daughter and
the doctor, but Thought shs was i'll
from an entirely ditfsIeLt c'us9. Dur
Jog a relapse in the young womsu's
condition tie father hsstlly sent for
the doctor to come 10 his house, say
ing that his daughter was apparently
dying. The decor became greatly
alarmed, and Immediately jumped
to the conclusion that the young
woman had confessed everything.
Believing that she had done So, AID
realizing that his reputation would
be blasted, aud that, With fear
full prospect of/being arrested and
tried for causing his loved ones death,
he did what no doubt appeared to be
the best thing t1 do under TIE circum-
stances he killed himse f. Bat events
have row proved that his lie was but
an idle sacrifice, because the young
woman has greatly improved, and is
now in fair way to recover. The
news Of his suicide has been kept care
fully from her, and her fa'her does
not yet know what IS the IN tier with
her. The funeral of the doctor took
place in Philadelphia today, ami was
attend, d bv many friends ilom Balu-
more and New York.

Since the Knights OF Labor have
shown employers what immense pow
or labor can WELD when united, many
of the trade journals have had sca'h'

RUSSIA, ENGLAND AND AFGHAN
ISTAN.

The removal OF Alexander, OF Bal
Vaiia, by Russia is naturally attracting
great attention in Edrope, and taken
in connection with he closing OF the
free port of Batoum, is regarded as en-
dangering the maintenance OF peace,
The only power that appears likely to
object strongly to the outrage is Eng
land, but England's hands arc tied.
The Irish difficulty is in its way, and
that impediment is stronger than ever
before owing TO the measures expected
from the Tory government, aud from
the revival OF the odious system OF
evictioas. But this is not the only
shackls upon any spirited policy by
England, as a very intelligent article
in the New Orleans Picdytune points
out, referring 10 the threaten
ing attitude Russia is assuming
with respect TO AighauistAu, Of which
the APPEAL on Thursday last gave an
account. Affghanistan is the ally Of
England, and the Russians are now
claiming territory governed by Az

fuse TO surrender. This may lead 10
