HISTORIC GROUND.
Proposal to Establish Il Public Park on

proposal to Establish Il Public Park on n
Famous Spot.
On a bluff overlooking York river. at
yorktown, stands q most symmetrical and
graceful monument. 1t was erected in
commemoration of the equalization which
practically ended the revolutionary war,
and marked the beginning of the United
States as an independent nation. Not
outstanding its great historic interest,
few persons have ever seen it and its yery
existence is probably unknown except to
those who recall the imposing ceremonies
with which the cornerstone was laid in Oc-
tober, 1881, and even of those who attended
these ceremonies, few have heard OF the
completion of the shaft, no unwilling cere-
monies having taken place, and its isolated
situation preventing the fact of the
completion coming to public knowledge.
The government has never purchased the
ground upon which the momentous event
which finally decided its fate took place,
and ali that it WINS of this historic place
Is the small enclosure around the monu.
ment. The rudest facilities exist for the
accommodation of those who wish to visit
the battlefield. There is, it is said, no
place of any national interest SO neglected.
One soldier constitutes the guard to pre-
vent dissertation. For some time patriotic
societies have advocated the governments
making a park of the battlefield, and the
movement has at last taken practical shape.
On the ll5th anniversary of the occasion,
Col. James E. Peyton, of New Jersey, o
lineal descendant of the Peyton of revo.
lutionary fame, on behalf of the Philadel-
phla Yorktown society, organized to bring
the matter to the attention of congress,
and q party of congressman aud others left
Washington and proceeded down Chesa.
peake bay in the steamer Charlotte to in
spect the monument and visit the battle.
field.
The party arrived at West Point and
was met by the United States steamer
Dispatch, and the boats proceeded down
the river to Yorktown. A meeting was
organized, with Representative Baker
chairman and Richard S. Muckle, of the
Philadelphia Ledger, secretary. A COM
mittee of thirteen congressman was ap-
pointed to draft a report Of the trip, and,
on motion OF Representative Buchanan, of
New Jersey, to draft the resolutions favor
ing the purchase by the government Of the
battle ground and of the Moore house in
which CORVALLIS signed the articles of
capitulatlon, and the establishment of q
public park. 1t is proposed to authorize
the erection of a hotel for the accommoda-
ton of historical students md other
visitors. This committee subsequently
brought in a report which was adopted
with enthusiasm.
A singular feature of inscription on the
monument is that nowhere is there men,
ton of Lafayette's name.

NEW YORK ALARMED.

Germany Buying Large Quantities Il Gold
for Export-Banking Circles F;.Astrated.
A New York paper says the recent ship
ment of S2,254,O 900 in gold to Germany.
$3.50, 600 of which went on the steamship
Columbia Thursday, has been followed by
the circulation in banking circles of several
disquieting rumors, one reaching the gov
eminent officials to the effect that the
shipments are on direct orders from the
German chancellor. One OF the leading
bankers said:
The recent advance in exchange in Ber-
lin and the low rate of sterling exchange in
Germany arose from the policy of extend
ing the German export business and at the
same time placing such restrictions on i'm
ports as to practically profit by them.
The reasons for this policy is that the
German government is boarding gold, and
no matter what excuse the banker acting
as it's agent may make, it is we'll under
stood where the order comes from and
where the gold goes to-"
1t is estimated that $40, 000, 900 will be
taken by Helde!bach, Ickelheimer & Co.
on present orders from New York. The
English bankers said that sterling exchange
and exchange bars were just at the golG
shipping point aud any further advance in
rates would bring out large export orders.
A worse feature of the situation is the
fact that gold bars in the assay Office which
two years ago amounted to 100000, 900,
have decreased to S32, 800, 900. If they
should be all absorbed a drain on the
double eagles ia the SUI b-treasury will
follow, and the banks will lose a part Of
their specie holdings.
The opinion on Wall street is freely ex-
pressed that the law allowing the shipment
of gold bars for export should be amended,
and the treasury officials should insist upon
paving all checks in com. This would
limit the shipment Of gold to a small fig
ure, for it would take a wide difference in
exchange for shippers to realize a profit in
shipping coiu. Gold bars are of extra fine
ness aud are charged for accordingly. On
the other baud, gold coin often falls / per
cent. below the standard of tineness, and
in addition there is always a loss by abra-
cio,

Ohio-Several Distinguished Persons In
jured, and Two Men Killed.
The New York express was wrecked at
Childs' Station, on the Baltimore and Ohio

seriously injured that he died before he
could be carried to Philadelphia. Bishop
Kean was cut about the head and body and
badly bruised. Ralph ingalls,, son Of Sem

Another account of the Baltimore &
Ohio accident says Charles Ackenheim. Of

TIC REDUCE THE OUTPUT.
A Resolution Proposing to Cut Down the
Amount of Milling.

A Resolution Proposing to Cut Down the
Amount of Milling.
At the Millers' convention III Minneapo-
lis, Mr.. Freeman saidthe question Of over
production in flour was a chestnut. A. a
text for discussing on the subject, he in
troduced the following resolutions:
WHEREAS, There is in the country an i'm
mense over-proluction OF -four and q conse-
quent pressing necessity for a reasonable cur
tailment OF output by united action therefore,
be it
Resol:sd, By the Millers' National conven-
tion, that the executive committee be author
lied to take action in IT,. matter by way of sig
nature consents to the exleut OF one-fourth OF
one-third for the crop year bf ginning Septem-
Der !, 1890, nothing to be binding unless the
larsest firms or corporations join i'll the agree
ment and not to become operative until not
less than 50 per cent. OF the capacities of mer-
chant mills represented by members of the as
ISOLATION shall have sisnGd.
@Res0l3ed Further. that the basis of curt all
ing production shull be q shutting down of ach
mill of not less than one-halft the time suggested
during the first hs.lf OF tbs crop year or the
whole of said erio.: of shut down to be during
the first hall. the same to be TIT the option of
the proprietor heavy bonds to be given in oil
cases for u L. thful per!ormnnc OF agreement.
Mr.. Freeman said the Hungarian milleTs
had shown a great success in curtailing
production. One mill had broken the con-
tract and was subjected to q fine of several
thousand dollars. No man vino is in favor
of such au agreement would object to sign
ing bonds. But about this matter unless
something was done, 80 use a vulgar ex-
pression," said he, unless something is
don't, We'll all go to hell in a handbasket."
O~ver-production is as bad as competition.
They could specify some one mill to be
shut down, if necessary. He believed the
statement that the mills Of the country
could grind all the wheat in the country in
nile,y days without exporting a bushel Of
wheat. A reduction of 335 per cent. in
the amount mil!ed would be a benefit to
the millers and the country.
Mr.. Gibbs opposed it, because he thought
that it was too much responsibility for the
committee. Thetmatter should be given to
IN individual and not to a committee.
The resolution as it was to 60 before the
executive committee, was adopted, four
persons voting in the negative.

Great Britain Rebels Against Tory Plans
for Tariff Reprisal.
The attempt of the London Times and
the Standard to arouse a hostile feeling
toward the United States on the seal fish
cry question is only adding to the disgust
and alarm with which public opinion in
England regards the recent course of the
tory government. The landed aristocracy,
who form the backbone of English con-
servatism, would not object to an Ameri-
lean war, and the farmers who pay rent to
the aristocracy would be benefited by the
exclusion of American meat aud produce.
These only could derive much advantage
from q struggle that would close
British ports to the United
States. The interests of the &C.
tive moneyed and of the industrial
classes are all bound up with peace.
The annual income of British capital in
vested in the United States is considerably
in excess of 800, 0OO, 1000. Besides there
are vast commercial interests that would
be paralyzed by a commercial war, and the
awful distress in Lancashire consequent
on the lack Of cotton for manufacturing
purposes during the American civil wal
would not compare With the misery that
might now follow an embargo on American
raw material for British manufacturers.
Then, most important of all, the absence
Of American food products won!d mean
untold distress for the working classes.
