The resolutions were unanimously
adopted by a rising vote, and 1t WAS
voted that they be sent to the gov

was dismissed by prayer by Elder
Turner.
(The above report Of the meeting
was furnished by party present,

to bring the cloth into disrepute, and

Expenses of U. =. Courts.

APPROPRIATIONS IN THE URGENT DEFICIENCY BILL
The letter OF the SECRETARY OF the Treasury
transmitting to the House OF Representatives esti-
mates OF deiclences required for the current fiscal
year includes the appropriations for the Depart
ment OF Justice, mentioned in last Saturdays
STAR, to replace funds already exhausted. The
communication OF the Attorney General request
ing the submission OF these estimates asks for
urgent deficiencies in the appropriation for defray-
ing the expenses OF the United states courts IOr
the present fiscal year as follows: For fees OF
jurors, Sl50,000. The original appropriation OF
s4oO000 Will be exhausted before March first.
For ices OF witnesses, 100000 The appropriation
(S55O,0OO) has borne expenses that properly be-
lunged 10 the fiscal year 1887, owing to failure
pass deficiency bill at the last session OF Con-
greSS. The average expense per month from July
J. 1887 to December /, 1887 (ive montns), is S110-
O00 Ir the expenses for the remainder or the fiscal
year shall equal this average there Will be needed
$3.50 OO0 thus making the expenses OF the appro-
prialon for this fiscal year 81, 100000 For pay OF
bailifs, $4,000 The appropriation (s100, 900 was
reduced on December 8, 1887, TO S2,tS24, being an
average per month for the five preceding months
or $l9 4To II these expenses for the remainder OF
the fiscal year are at the above rate the annual
penditure for the fiscal year Will be 100000. sit
is proper TO state that the probable deficiency for
jurors and the existing deficiency for witnesses,
besides the cause above stated phe tapping over OF
expenses from the fiscal year 1887 TO the flScal
year 1855, Is owing TO the great business carried
on by the United states District Court at Fort
Smith, Ark. (where there has already been ad-
vanced for pay of witnesses during this fiscal year
the sum OF s105, ,000 and to the Increased ntiga-
ton respecting timber trespasSeS, prosecutions in
Utah under the EdmundS bill and the Increased
number OF places for holding courts created by the
last session or Congress-"
The Attorney-General adds that these appropri-
at1onS are recommended as urgent because OF the
exhaustion OF one (witneoses), the practical ey-
hauStion OF another lballiIs), and the early prob
abe exhaustion OF that for jurors. and b. cause the
Department has been advised that judge OF
court would suspend proceedings II there was no
money TO pay Witnesses, and IL is possible before
urgent dehclences are provided, that otner courts
my do likewise.

Special Cable Dispatch TO The EVENING STAR
LONDON, Jan. 4-The rumors that the British
government intend to issue a new three per cent
stock guaranteed from repayment for at least
twenty-five years is not yet officially confirmed,
but the assertion is so positively made that the
new issue Is already quoted at two TO three pre-
miurn- The report is certainly hard 10 credit,
since the terms offered are much too high. The
existing three per cents repayable at years no.
tice are quoted at nearly lo3, and even the two
and three-Quarters per cents at par. For some
time past indeed, it has been rumored that the
government intended TO convert the three per cents
Ing nfteen million or the stock they intend 10
begin process OF cutting up the national debt
into small sections In order 10 facilitate Its future
conversion, as II Is impossible to convert large an
amount as Is represented by the consols all al
once. III this is 50 the provision not TO repay un-
der twenl y-fye years Is doubly absurd, since the
terms are too high without this ana possible con-
version is purpoSeiy postponed. Unless there Is
some mistake this Will be

this respect second only TO Gladstone among liy-

fortune as the head OF the banking nrIn OF Fruh-
ling & Goschen, and always spoke TO the point on
financial subjects Ia the house. His frst budget,
however as chancellor OF the eXchequer last year,
wherein he broke in upon the sinking fund instead
or meeting the deficit by increased taxation, was
severely condemned 10y the best authorities. and
the new scheme Is likely 10 place them more Sc
