THE MONEY STRINGENCY
Continues to OverShadow wall Street.
Resolutions Adopted.


New YORK September l5.-Thc strin-
gency i'm money continued TO over
shadow everything else ON Wall street
to-day. and i'm the stock exchange the
loan crowd is larger than it has been in
wears. The first loans on call were
made at Is premium and legal IN
tereSt, and money was soon in
demand at 4 premium and legal
interest or equal to 9S per cent. per
aunum. The majority of the loans were
made at this rate, and for two hours
the prevailing rate was per cent. and
premium. Then the demand became
less urgent, nearly all the brokers hay-
ing supplied themselves with funds,
and i'm the afternoon it was freely
offered. the last loan being made at 3
per cent.
The Board Of Trade and TranspOrta-
tion passed these resolutions to-day:
RcSolrcd, That while it is desirable
that am early date should be fixed for
the new tariff to take effect, yet com
mon Justice and precedent alike dictate
that it should not apply to goods which
have arrived in this country prior ia
the time said bill takes effect, and be it
further
Resolrcd That in the mind Of this
board. no good reason exists for chang
ing the usual time during which such
goods can remain In bond without pay
ment of duty.and TO fix any other date is
unnecessary, and increases the chances
of monetary troubles at time when all
the currency of the country is needed to
move It's crops.
RcSolrcd, That a copy of these reSolu-
tions be sent to the presiding officers OF
the Senate and House OF Representa-
tiyeS. with the request that the same
Doe referred to their respective commit
fees nf nnnferencc.

the ships owners, and mail the same upon
their arrival i'm this city.
The Challenger was first class Ameri-
can three master of 100 tons burden and

MAY BE AN EXTRA SESSION.
The President Cosidering It-Commis-
sioner Mason Calls on Him at Cresson.

CREssoN, PA, September 15.-Hon.
John w. Mason. Commissioner of In
ternal Revenue, who is on his way to
the Grand Army reunion at Morgan
town. w. Va, next Thursday, stopped
oil here to-day at the request Of the
President, and was in conference with
him for several hours.
The Presidents mail from Washing
ton this morning was very heavy, ard
will keep him busy for some time.
Mr.. Mason was summoned here to
confer with the President in regard to
certain prospective changes. in the In
ternal Revenue service and also TO give
him certain desired information in
regard to the increased receipts from
that source.
The grand army posts at Tyrone. Pa,
have requested the President TO receive
them in a body next Wednesday, and
their request viii undoubtedly be-
granted.
Major Dcnnison, Of Pittsburgh, Pa,
waited on the President this evening
and on behalf Of the C.. \. K. posts of
that city, invited him to be present
at their reunion at Rock Point, Pa.
nex' Wednesday. The President re-
cciyed him cordially. and expressed re-
gret that his engagements would pre-
vent an acceptance of the invita-
/ tion. The President has also re-
ceiyed invitations from the people
I of nearly all the neighborng
towns and villages to pay them visit.
One that is likely 20 be accepted came
from the miners OF Houtzdale, Pa,
who said they would suspend work on
the day of his visit aud give him a rouS-
/ ing reception.
There is every reason TO believe that
/ the President is seriously considering
the advisability of calling an extra
session of Congress. 1t is known that
several prominent Republicans have adj
viscd such course with view TO an
earlier consideration of the Fedora
Election bill. Persons who have talked
with the President ON this subject say
/ that ne will certainly rcconvcnc Con-
groSS if certain pending measures III
which he takes great interest are not
disposed of at this session. These in
cudc the anti-Lottery bill, the Supreme
/ Court bill and the Labor bills now in
the Senate and the Postal Shipping bill
now awaiting the action of the House
The President is known to b,
specially Interested in the passage o
| the Election bill and could probably fee
/ justified in calling an extra session fol

of the important measures now pending
as may not be disposed OF at this seS
