The Options Expire Without Any News
From the Syndicate.
The options held by the syndicate of
European and American capitalists upon
the rice mills of Savannah aud other

While they are not disappointed they would
have been glad to see the deal go through.

Of cash money to the mill owners and
would have indirectly benefited the south

NEW YORK, Nov. NJ Special. THE
officials of the Sub b-Treasnry in Wall street
are struggling with PLETHORA of bronze
cents. Stored away in different parts of
the big vaults are 16, 10000 of them. As
1000 cents weigh seven pounds, the weight
of woe that is expressing the officials
amounts to 72, s0Opounds or more than SO tons.
This accumulation is credited to the cent in
the slot machines.
The majority of the companies controll-
ing the machines have their headquarters
in this city, and the collections are for
warded by express for deposit in the Treas
ury. The demand falls far short of the
supply, and treasury men do not know
what to do with the surplus. There is also
in the Sub-Treasury S65, 900 in nickels, pre-
sumably contributions from the nickel-in-

were reported by the 7dgeblatt Saturday, led
to the panic.
Count Won Taafe, the Austrian Prime

the hands of the Public Prosecutor, and
that that official was taking the preliminary
steps to prosecute the authors of the re-
ports.
