The searla. WnCase

SALEM, Mass, Sept. 24.-This was the
third day of the Searles will contest. The
examination of Mr. Searles was continued.
Witness had owned an estate in Methuen
for twenty one years. Neither this estate
nor the Great harrington property ever
went into the co-partnership assets. The
Gret harrington property was transferred
by deed to witness, but the deed was never
recorded. The deed was dated February
%, 1883. The transfer was made through
Stillman and was executed in Europe
Neither of the deeds was recorded. Wit
ness did not know of any transfer of the
San Francisco homestead. Burleyh then
produced deeds OF San Francisco, Sacra-
mento and Summit Soda Springs property
in California from Mrs. Scar
les through Hillman to witness.
Witness had even after these
transfers considered himself ard wife
equally interested in the property. The
deeds to the Menlo park property were
also put in. None of these had been re-
corded. There was also a deed for 500
acres OF timber land in California. A deed
was put IN evidence conveying absolutely
| to witness by marriage settlement. This
WIS made six months after the marriag @
the Rock Island property stands in witness
name; the Fifth avenue house was pur-
chased in witness name. These deeds
were recorded. Witness understood that
the title did not pass until the deeds were
recorded No one suggested that these be
kept from records so that neither Timothy
Hopkins nor any of his wife's relations
should know of them; no one gave any rea-
son for SO doing.
Another long schedule of stocks trans
ferred from Mrs. Searles to the co-part-
nership Of Searles, Stlllman g. Hubbard
was put in evidence A telegram from
Mrs. Hopkins TO Timothy at San Francisco
three days before the marriage was read.
1t SAID: THE marriage proposed and re-
fused four years ago was contaminated
November s, at IL a. N. If possible let E.
r. 5. and myself receive your congratula-
Etioas; am writing you; do not sail before
the 18TH"
Witness did not recall hearing the tele-
gram before. He had heard before the
marriage Timothy had had detectives fol
lowing him. He did not like it, but still he
had no unfriendly feeling for Timothy.
Timothy had said in the presence OF his
mother that he had looked him up as he was
DESTROYS of knowing the character of the
man his mother was TO marry. Adjourned
for lunch.

The Cramp for Currency.

WASHINGTON, Sept. "a - Less than
81, 100000 in currency available for busl-
ness in the vaults of the treasury at Wash
ington, is the condition that confronted the
treasury officials to-day. In the sub-trea-
sury at New York. there is 5000, OCC in
currency, and in the various sub treasures
81, 100000 more, making in all, SO, 500, GOO
in currency. There is now in the course
of redemption, S2,5OO,OOO in currency,
which makes grand total of Sl3, 900. 900 in
currency. The net balance as shown by
the treasury statement is s45, 600, 600. In
Guided in this is SD 900, 900 in bank deposi-
tories and Sl7,0O0,0)0 in subsidiary silver,
leaving an available balance stated
at between S13,050,00O and Sl4,-
900, 900. This statement does not
include the Sl00,000,000 gold reserve which
Secretary Foster has stated at various
times he could use in case of necessity, nor
does it include the gold and silver coin in
the treasury. 1t includes only the cur
rency available for current demands. 1t is
stated on good authority that during the
present week, the treasury officials have
mad 10 hustle" to get together sufficient
currency to meet demands, drafts, and
where practicable, drafts have Geen drawn
on the sub treasury at New York to avoid
curtallng Inc small currency balance in
he treasury department Money has also
been transferred by express and telegraph
to points removed from sub treasures to
meet urgent demands, as the treasury
could not afford to have funds remain idle
at small points. This ''cramp'' for cur
rency is brought about by the redemption
of AZ per ceat. bonds, (more than SIC, 0OO,-
900 OF which have been redeemed during
the present month) and also to the falling
off of customs receipts, which show de-
crease of about 80 per cent during the
present month over the same month last
year. Pension payments have also
figured in reducing the available currency.
| 81, 100000 having been paid out on
this account. There now remains but
! 80, OO0,O 600 four and half per cent bonds to
be either redeemed or continued, and when
these are disposed of it is thought the
available currency in the treasury will
rapidly increase. OF 100000 four and a
half per cent. bonds, it is believed that
about s., O00, 900 will be presented for re-
demption. While the treasury department
| is, therefore, at this time having a tight
| time to find currency to transact business,
the pressure will soon be removed and
matters will move along as smoothly as
| they have for sometime past

KANSAS CITY, Sept. PA special to the
Star from Chandler, o. T., via Guthrie,
says: No other town in the world is like
Chandler to-day, for which all other towns
may beglad. The location of Chandler is
on high bluff. rougher than the high seas
in storm. Great rocks are scattered
about all over the townsite and deep gull
lies cut it into pieces. The rival town on
the adjoining half Of the quarter section is
on level ground On Tuesday men rushed
into it and drove stakes; after sleeping out
all night Tuesday, tortured with hunger,
thirst and the most raVenous species of
mosquitoes, hundreds realized thoy had
had enough, ana began TO leave. One man
yesterday offered two lots in Chandler en-
mex for ham sandwich without finding a
purchaser. The town is overrun with
gamblers Of every description. There has
been no trouble yet.

OMAHA, Sept. 2-fSpeceial telegram TO
THE HERALD. DIR. B. II. Birney, a promi-
nent physician and society man, was shot
by John G. Wells at noon to-day on a
crowded thoroughlare in this city. Birney
had left his office to go TO luncheon. As ne
was passing the Commercial National bank,
at Sixteenth and Farnam streets, gray
haired man with revolver, held close 10
his side, advanced toward him, without
Introduction or explanation beyond the
words, ''Now, then, rll kill you right
here" The old man was apparently fear
fully excited, and as he was about
to shoot again, mis- intended victim
rushed upon him and held him uutil
policeman hurried up and disarmed him.
The would-be muir. erer struggled franti-
cally, in the meantime swinging the smok-
ing weapon above his head and endeavor-
ing to get an opportunity to shoot again,
until the shooting iron was wrested from
him and the two were pulled apart. Biz
ney was taken into q surgical room and
examined. The bullet had struck him a
little to the fright of the navel and
had then come in contact with the stem of
his watch. 1t had broked off the stem,
broken the snap on the chain ana twisted
the watch ring out of shape. The bullet
was found in his pocket. 1t was fatLend
out TO the thinness of sheet of paper and
was considerably larger than a silver
dollar. The lead bore the imprint of The
corrugated watch stem, the skin under-
meath was confused, and that was the ex-
tent of the Doctors injuries.
The shooting was the elimination of an
affair, sensational in some respects, that
has been going on for sometime, in which
DR.. Birney and Mrs. Covell, daughter of
MIR. Wells, were prominent characters.
Mrs. Coyell is the wife OF G.. ID. Covell. He
is now in Chicago, having left his wife Oh
account, it is alleged, of her iufidelity.
For some months Mrs. Coven has
been frequent visitor to DR.. Biruey's
Office and has been in his company on the
streets almost daily. Mrs. Coren referred

gram TO The HERALD. Wv. t. Roberts is
on trial for his life, charged with the muir

tempted to prove yesterday that Roberts
shot in self defense, but it being shown
that Roberts had seduced the woman and
then compelled her to marry him, and that
Roberts had been threatening Kapella, the
defense was suddenly changed this morn

examined tonight by DR.. Eskridge, and
the opinion is that he will be found account
able and held to answer for his crime.

BYNUM'S BOMB.
He Dissects and Lays Bare Republican
Sophistry

Mr.. Chairman, Ladies and Gentlemen:
Free government cannot long endure ex-
cept under Democratic influence. The Re-
publican party, If it ever honestly pos
sessed, has long since abandoned Demo-
cratic ideas, and stands to-day the exponent
Of every neresy which threatens the de-
struction of popular institutions. The re-
cord of the Republican party is one of
hypocritical professions and broken prom
ises. 1t returned to power more than two
years ago, securing full control of every
department of the government, promis
ing to restore silver to its use
as money, but, at the first oppor-
tunity degraded it to the level Of COM
modify. The civil service law was to be
faithfully administered, and yet one Of the
first acts OF its officials was TO declare an
important bureau, clearly within lis spirit,
outside Of its limits, and to fill its ranks
with partisan employees to subserve parti'
san interests. The President FASTENED to
postpone the time Of the taking effect of
the order, placing the railway mail service
in the classified lists, that time might be
secured in which TO dismiss Democratic
clerks and reward Republicans: and even
after this important branch of the service
came under the operation of the law, it was
fraudulently and corruptly violated by the
removal of Democrats and the appointment
OF Republicans.
