WASHINGTON, Oct. 2s.-Mr. E. O.
LEIGH, director Of the mint, makes the
following statement IN regard to treas
ury purchases of silver bullion and
causes of the recent decline In the mar
ket prices Of silver. The treasury method
OF purchasing silver has been criticised
in these particular
L. That large purchases by the de-
partment do not include all the silver
bought.
9. That the London price is used as 8
basis of government purchases.
8. That bids to the government are on
the decimal system and tend to favor
lteism.
In regard to the trst criticism may
say the government purchases silver as IT
does bonds. or any article required in
considerable quantity, by public. compete
ton, the lowest Offers being always ac-
cepted, provided they do not exceed the
highest market prices. For the benefit
Of small producers, however. who would
otherwise be Obliged to trade through
middlemen, the superintendents of mints
are authorized to purchase small lots at
a price fxed from day TO day by the de
rector Of the mint, corresponding to

SAN Francisco, CAL, Oct. 2S.-A
few days ago in the papers Of this city
appeared telegram from CORES
pondent at San Antonio, Tex, giving in
detail the alleged misdeeds of John H.
Bolton, prominent furniture dealers and
office holder of that city. A reporter
called upon Mr.. Bolton in this city yes
terday. He had seen the dispatches in
the papers and was naturally indignant.
He SAID in reply to the reporters ques-
tion: elm the first place 1 deny the
statement made in the artical in toto.
All OF them are untrue, and the article
was inspired by someone with the
INTENTION OF INJURING Me
here on the coast. He succeeded, for
l had just secured position in the
quartermHster' department at Van
couyeT, and when the article appeared
my appointment was revoked. l was in
the furniture business at San Antonio
and short time ago made as assignment
without preferred creditors of all L
possessed. The statement that l left the
town with $50 900 is untrue, and as q
matter of fact left with less than Sl00,
money which my wife had saved up. l
did overdraw at the Maverick bank, but
the transaction covered the months Of
June, July and August and it was done
with
THE KNOWLEDGE AND CONSENT
of the bank officials. l had been de-
posting with the bank two years. L
never had any dealings through paper
with the Texas national bank and never
got cent from it. The direct cause of
my assignment was a draft through that
bank upon me for $500 whicn l could
not meet. From City Assessor Frost
borrowed $500 in November,
1887, securing him by a note.
made one payment of $500 on
that, leaving balance of $1,000, for
which he now holds a note. At the same
date borrowed 5000 from Jacob Kuhn,
who is my brother-in-law, and
GAVE HIM A NOTE.
have made a payment of $500 on that.
Both those parties hold notes signed by my
wife and myself three years ago. l don't
owe any other person in San Antonio
cent. So far as the secret societies are
concerned, 1 have not been an officer in
one of them for three years. l resigned
my position as alderman on the day of
my departure by formal note to the
city clerk. The lots mentioned l know
nothing about. l was twenty years In
THE REGULAR ARMY
and went into business at San Antonio at
ter my discharge in 1885. l left San An
tonic to start anew on the coast. My
liabilities there were something like
$50 900 and my assets were about Sl4,
$50, putting the goods in at wholesale
prices. There was 40 desire or intent to
defraud, and it is i'll fortune that this
piece of vindictive matter should have
received circulation. The San Antonio
papers. up to the 21st inst. have had
nothing to say about it. showing that
they do not believe it. am entirely in
nocent of all the charges.
