EXPLANATION of the Heavy Exporta-

ton Of the Precious Metal to
Europe.
WASHINGTON, June 24.-Director of
the Mint Kimball was questioned to-day
with regard to the recent heavy exporta-
tions of gold from New York. and he
said that they were caused by demands
from France, premium having been
offered by the Bank of France. "About
the first of June," said the director.
the Bank of England raised. by half a
penny an ounce, the price at which it
would sell French gold coins, and re-
course has been had to the U. S.. where
under the law of May 26. 1882, gold coins
can be exchanged at coinage mInts and
the assay Office at New York, in sums
of 5000 and upwards, free OF charge.
and without loss on account OF wear OF
the coin, which is suffered where coin
in place of bars is dealt with" The
director thinks this law should be re-
pealed, or else amended so as to allow
of bar charge. and says: "At present
the stock of bars at the assay office in
New York is the most available supply
in the world for the worlds benefit,
rather than that of the United States,
as in ordinary exchange operations
rates of exchange have been against
expectation of gold to France, both
from London and New York.

HELENA, Mont, June 24.-News has
just been received from Arlee. the
principal town OH the Flathead reserva-
ton, that Sheriff Hepburn and posse
of Missoula county officers. who went
to the reservation to arrest three Indian
murderers, are having battle with the
Indians, who refuse to give up the men
wanted. Two Indians are reported to
have been killed already. Agent Roman
has called upon the commanding officer
at Fort Missoula for troops, but that
official is waiting orders from Washing
ton. In the meantime posse of we'll
known citizens from Missoula, headed
by Maj. Stone, has been organized, and
is on its way to the aid of the sheriff.
The civil officers are determined to
arrest the murderers, and as the In
dians are determined not to give them
up, serious trouble is feared. The coun-
try in the vicinity of the Flathead res
ervatiOn is filling up so rapidly that the
Indians have no difficulty in getting all
the whisky they want, and the result
has been for the past year much trou-
BILE. Chief Greas used to keep them in
check with the whip, but there was so
much talk of the brutality of this form
of punishment that Agent Roman caused
its abandonment, since which time the
Flatheads have been growing worse and
worse, and now threaten to engage in
general uprising.

Metropolis.
New YORK. June 24.-The first Chi
nese play with Chinese actors ever pre-
sented in this city was given at the
Windsor theater this evening to large
audience of Gotham's Chinese and a
sprinkling of Americans. The play
was entitled ''Shee-Long-T -TanDoc, %
which in English signifies ''The Royal
Slave" The company of Chinese ae-
tors was organized in Oregon three
years ago, and consists of fifty Mongo-
lians. From O'Clock to 11-3O one scene
sufficed for the stage settings. Taxa
Wing. the alleged greatest Chinese fe-
male impersonator in the world, took
the leading part of Princess Kung Joo.
A queer and puzzling exhibition was
presented to those of the audience not
Chinese. 1t was medley of grotesque
dancing to the fearful music of a celes-'
tial band at the rear of the stage. The
English audience got tired in an hour
and half and left the Chinese in full
sway.

WASHINGTON, June 24.-The civil
service commission to-day made the
following report on the: Milwaukee post
office:
Having investigated the management Of
the Milwaukee postoffice, in so far as it is af-
fected by the civil service law, we find that
during the past four years the postmaster. g..
H. Paul, has repeatedly violated sald law,
and in many cases has manipulated the lists
of eligibles, so that the person whom he pre-
ferred should be certified TO him.
If Mr.. Paul had any considerable portion
of his term TO serve, we should recommend
his immediate removal: but we have deter
mined not to make such Recommendation. III
view of the fact that his term has already eX-
pired: of the fact that no satisfactory proof
has been adduced to show that his action IN
making appointments was due to political
considerations, and Of the further fact that
his construction of a letter OF the commls-
sion. written in 1888, may partially excuse
portion Of his misconduct. The commission
therefore report that Mr. Paul should be, ana
hereby is. severely censured.
Signed by Charles Lyman. Theodore Roose-
velt, Hugh 5. Thompson, commissioners.
Mr.. Roosevelt said: The letter OF
the commission in 1885 gave hum per-
mission to use the upper list to I'LL out
vacancies in the lower; it referred to
special emergency. but was taken by

times. pick out man he wished from an
upper list, like that OF clerks OF carriers
and then gerrymander lower list, like
that of stamps. until he got certifica-
ton that contained the name of the
man he desired. He simply picked out
any man he wished, without regard to
his grade, from the upper lists and had
him certified, putting in couple OF un-
fortunates from the lower list to make
up the certifcation. He also had
the men certified with such careful IT.
regularity, without regard to their
grade, that he was enabled to choose
whoever he cared for. In at least one
case, where otner means failed. he had
an examination paper remarked and
the average reduced, so as to get the
candidate out of the way OF another
man. In his testimony before the COM
mission, Mr.. Paul coutradicted himself
grossly on one or two very important
points, and also contradicted his former
testimony before the chief examiner:
He tried to throw the blame on the local
examining board, which was evidently,
however, entirely subservient to him."

BAPTIST BIGOTRY.
A Baltimore Clergyman Assails
the Church of Rome.

BALTIMORE, Nd, June PA sensa-
ton was caused this morning at the
regular quarterly meeting of the minis
terial union by the reading of bitter
address OH 1.-The Bible in the Public
Schools" by Rev. F. NJ. Ellis, D. D.. pas
tor of the Eutaw Place Baptist church.
In the course of his remarks he said:
II am also in favor of the Bible in the
public schools because Rome is opposed
to it. Applause.] The recent Lenten
lecture of Cardinal Gibbons publicly
advised and urged upon his people
to read the Bible. Now, do not say
that Cardinal Gibbons was not honest
in that ADVICE, but il he did mean what
he said, he was not good Catholic, and
if he did not mean it, was not honest.
The aim of the Catholic is to make
Romanists; our aim is to make char
acter. Rome controls all her people,
and therefore Romanlst cannot be a
good citizen of this republic. If the
pope bad his way, our public schools
and the open Bible would soon 60.
Rome has already declared her inten-
tion not only of driving the Bible from
the public school, but also of dividing
the public school funds to her own ad-
vantage. Rome openly antagonizes one
of the leading institutions of our cOun-
try" The union authorized Rev. DR..
Ellis to publish this paper.

Capt. Stouch's Official Report Of
the Trouble at Mile Lacs.

WASHINGTON, "a. = Capt. Stouch,
Third infantry, has reported to the war
department the following. results of the
investigations of Capt. Hannay, Third
infantry, into the recently reported
Indian outbreak at the Mile Lacs res
ervatiOn. Minnesota:
The shooting of the white mau was the re-
suit of drunkenness. Three families who
left the neighborhood of the Indian camp
were new arrivals, Swedes, and were fright
ened off by drunken Indians, They went
about six miles off. The Indians will de-
liver up the one who did the shooting, Wa
dena, as soon as the sheriff comes for him.
He will not leave his present Whereabouts.
The shooting took place in the Mile Lacs
county. There seems to be some apprehen-
sion on the part of whites and some ill-will
on the part of Indians, partly because OF the
accidental killing of one of their number last
winter by white man and partly because
they still think they have some title to the
land hereaboutS But there is no danger of
an outbreak. When drunk they may have
made threats, but there is little in them. The
whisky and alcohol trade is the worst feature
of the matter.

an Ocean Disaster.

VINEYARD HAVEN, Mass, June "a
For several days past there have been
evidences of some ocean disaster in the
washing ashore on the islands of wreck
age. To-day bundle of woman's cloth
ing. evidently done up in great haste,
was picked up on the beach at Edgar
town, and life-preserver that came
from the City of Rome was also found.
Considerable wreckage painted green
and slate color is coming ashore on the
island. Among that found at Smiths
Point to-day, we're gilt moulding in con-
siderable quantities, one large door
with three ground glass circular top
lights, one window sash, evidently be-
longing to some steamer. and also
steamer Victoria bills of ladilg. Wine
cards of the steamship Haytien Repub-
lie were washed ashore at Nantucket
to-day. A mast about two feet in di-
ameter, square rugged, with wire rig
ging, was also found with the wreckage
at that pint. Everything points to
collision between the Victoria and the
Haytien Republic, though the life pre-

Contractor Foley Has Trouble

afternoon fifty laborers who have been
surfacing for George Foley, contractor
on the Duluth & Winnipeg railway,

had discharged them and refused to pay
them till he got ready. They hung
around the depot till the afternoon train
came in. Mr.. Foley was aboard the
train and started to run, but Was oyer
taken by the men who brought him
back. The men were thorougly
once. Mr.. Foley went to the bank and
tried to raise the money, but did not
succeed. He then started for Lawyer
Woodward's Office and was set upon by
the men, and would have been roughly
handled had not the police and few
citizens interferred. Cries of kill him"
were heard. Foley had sent his time
book to n. z. Junction, and meSsen-
ger was dispatched after it. He is now
at WOOdward's Office making out time,
and the place is surrounded. Trouble
is likely to occur, as the men can get no
money tonight. Two arrests have been
made. The men have had nothing to
eat since morning. 1t seems that Foley
had about seventy-fve men doing sur
face work, and it is alleged by them
that he required them to work eleven
hours, and wanted them to work twelve.
They claim he then discharged them,
and, when they asked for their time, he
told them he would give it when he got
ready. Foley claims that the men quit
Monday morning without saying word.
He says that the men have been worked
about ten and half hours, and that he
has been expecting trouble for some
time over this matter, and told Chief
Engineer KnOWltOn so. The men, who
are mostly Swedes, say that Foley used
to boast that he was king of Sweden,
and that they were slaves.
