AN IMPECUNIOUS ORDER.
Finances of the knights q 4 Labor
I'm bad Shape.

PHILADELPHIA, April 24.-Needs OF
ready money above current expenses,
which are now paid with difficulty,
are the source OF much concern to the
General Executive Board of the
Knights OF Labor. At recent session
of the board $40, 900 was appropriated
to start printing Office, but aside
from the brown stone front head
quarters, worth 100000, the only
available property is the Connellburg
coal mine in Ohio. The sale OF this
has been authorized and the board
expects to realize enough to get the
printing Office well under way and
thereby lessen the enormous printing
bill, which amounted to $4,000 last
year.
The sale Of the mine, however, will
do but little to improve the condition
of finances. A member of the Board
admits that there is barely enough
money in the treasury to pay current
expenses and keep the machinery
going until the payment of the July
per capita tax. The quarterly returns
are far from satisfactory, and unless
money is received between this date
and July, the force at the general
offices will have to be further reduced.
The expenses of the order are now
very heavy. During the year 1856
the order gained nearly 10000 MEM
bers and the total expenses were
$685. ,795. Under the present admin
istration for 1857 the order lost
217 ,0O0 members and the total ex-
penses were $491 ,6S3.

THE YAQUI WAR.
Delliwerent Savagcs DefyinE the
Mexican Authorities.

NoaALEs, A. t., April 24.-The
Yaqui Indians at war with the Mexi-
can Federal forces of Sonora, Mexico,
are now fortifying different places and
making determined stand against
the troops. A few days ago Major
Encino and Lieutsnaut Valtavileal,
with two columns OF Federal troops,
attacked the Indians in their strong
fortified positions in the Zamalaquaca
Mountains, near the town of Aqua
Verde. A desperate fight ensued, but
the Federal forces, after num-
ber of charges, routed the
Indians frem their Notifications,
killing seventeen and wounding a
large number. The Federal forces
had one man killed and several
wounded.
1t had been expected by the govern
ment that the approach Of warm
weather would cause a cessation OF
hostilities on the part of the Yaquis,
but they seem more determined on a
vigorous warfare than ever before.
The military officers who have been
fighting them for several months be-
lieve the Indians are being aided in
the matter Of provisions aud ammu.
milton by Mexicans, more favor
able to them than to the government.

FRACTIONAL CURRENCY.
Secretary Fafrchiid Discounte
nances its CirculatiOn.

SCOA AAkS-
nances its Circulation.
WASHINGTON, April 24.-Secretary
Fairchild appeared before the Senate
Finance Committee to-day to present
his views on bill which has passed
the House, providing for the issue OF
fractional currency. The Secretary
strongly opposed the bill. He asserted
that previous issues of fractional cur
rency had cost, in expense of produc-
ton and loss from destruction, as
much as the entire face value Of the
average circulation maintained. He
did not believe that the public con-
venience required REISSUE, nor that
it would be popular. The fractional
silver and postal note system met all
the purposes which the fractional
notes could serve except by very
large issue, extending to the remote
parts OF the country 1t would
also require years in its prepa-
ration. The cost and great loss
incident to such issues and its mani
fest disad vantages which had led to
its abandonment, were, to his mind,
conclusive reasons against the renew
al OF such circulation.
Comptroller OF the Currency Tren-
holm also appeared before the
committee to suggest some minor
notifications of the bill to re-
imburse the depositors in the Freed
mans Bank.

SAN Francisco, April PA Chron.
icle special from Butte, Montana, says
The Continental hotel was destroyed
by fire early this morning. Jesse B.
Gledding, a miner ald former clerk OF
the hotel, perished in the flames.
The body was burned to a crisp.
Frank Lincoln, Assistant Postmaster
of Butte, died from injuries a few
hours after being rescued from the
burning building. There were more
than one hundred other guests, men,
women and children in the hotel at
the time the alarm was raised, who
barely escaped with their lives, many
sustaining slight injuries. The hotel
was two-story frame building and
its destru :tion occupied only thirty
minutes. The guests escaped in
their night clothes, losing all their
personal effects. The loss on the
building and contents is 10000; in
surance, $5 900. The loss on Geo.
W. Kinks saloon was $4,000.

ERrINENT RAlLROADERS.
GOuld's Methods Questioned-
COmpa arisOn Of Figures.

New York, April 24.-The commit
tee OF security-holders of the Missouri,
Kansas and Texas road have drawn
up lengthy answer to Jay Gould's
letter. Stress is laid upon the sharp
decline of the Missouri, Kansas and
Texas securities, while no correspon d.
ing decline occurred in Missouri Pa
cifc bonds, and the inference is drawn
that Gould has not managed the
affairs of the former as we'll as those
of the latter road. While the ex-
penditure OF $2,0OO,0OO for steel rails
laid, referred to by Gould, should
have reduced the cost of maintenance
and operation, it increased from So
per cent in 1880 to 72 per cent in
1887. The most important feature OF
the document is the assertion that
the sMissouri Pacific owed
the Missouri, Kansas and Texas
over 81 900, 600 in December, 1886,
and since then this has been absorbed
and debt of $500, 1000 created, which
Gould claims is owed to the Missouri
Pacific. Thecommittee profess them
selves at loss to understand the rude
statement that the Missouri Pacific
made advances necessary to meet the
current expenses, when official state
ments show that in recent years it had
been in debt to the Missouri, Kansas
and Texas. The committee refute the
statement of Gould that the failure of
the corn crop caused shrinkage in
the earnings, and are at loss to un-
derstand why, under all these condi-
tions, the Missouri, Kansas and Texas
should fall into debt, while the Mis-
souri, Pacific merely reduced its divi-
dends from seven to six per cent.

The senate.

The session of the Senate to-day
was opened with prayer by Rev. DIR.
H. Pereira Mendez, Rabbi Of the
Spanish and Portuguese congregation
of New York. This is the second in
stance, probably, in the history of the
Government, that a Jew has offered
prayer in the Senate.
Among the bills reported from the
committees and placed on the calen-
dar was the following:
To provide for the erection Of pub
lie buildings for postoffices in towns
and cities where the postoffice
receipts for the three years
preceding have exceeded $4,000
annually. The bill is recon-
mended by the Postmaster General.
Hale offered a resolution directing
the Civil Service Commissioners to
furnish liets of all persons certified
for appointment to the Patent Office
from the 4th of March, 1885, to
March, 1888, and lists of all persons
selected and appointed under such
certificates.
"A bill appropriating 5000 900 for an
arsenal at Columbia, Tenn, was
passed.
The Senate then resumed considera-
tion of the International Copyright
bill, the question being on the amend
mcnt offered yesterday by Morrill,,
providing that newspapers and Pc
riodicals may copy articles from for
eign newspapers and periodicals.
After an interesting discussion the
bill was laid aside without &C ion, and
the Senate proceeded to the consid-
Grafton of the bill for the establish
ment Of . Bureau Of Animal Industry.

FAVORABLE SYMPTOMS.
BERLIN, April 24.-The North Ger
man Gazette says that the Emperor's
condition shows clearly a perceptible
tendency toward slowly progressive
improvement. His fever has dimin-
ished regularly during the last few
days. His temperature to-day was
thirty-eight degrees Celsius. His
physicians hope for further abatement
in view of recent symptoms developed. !.
and they find especial reason for hope
in the return of his appetite. The
fact that the Emperor has hitherto
taken fair quantity of nourishment
is solely due to the urgent ntrecommend-
alton of his physicians. Good results
followed the observance of their ad-
vice. His Majesty's present DISPOSE
tion to take solid food is satisfactory
symptom. DIR. Kruse will leave the
