SAY THEY ARE GUILTY.
PHILADELPHIA BANK WRECK
 FRS FORCED TO GIVE IN.
The Cashier Of the Keystone and the President and Cashier of fine
 spring Garden Plead Guilty.

PHILADEI.PHIA, Pa, Aug. l9.-Charles T. Lawrence, cashier of the suspended Keystone National bank. who was in- dicted with the banks fugitive presi- dent, Gideon W. Marsh, for conspiracy In the misapplication of the banks funds, in the United States Supreme court pleaded guilty.
 Francis w. Kennedy, president of the suspended Spring Garden National bank, and his brother, Henry II. Ken nedy, the cashier, were also arraigned on the charge of misapplication of the funds of that institution. Both enter ed pleas of guilty. Application for postponemept of sentence was made by counsel for both the prisoners.
 The councils subcommittee to in vestigate the affairs of ex-Treaslrer Bardsley and the Keystone bank met to-day. Gov. Pattison was present and was sworn and asked to explain the item in the report to Mayor Stuart by the expert accountants of the payment Of s7l4.l6 in 1889 by the Chestnut Street bank to Bardsley. Gov Patti son said in answer to the question:
 "l was elected president of the chestnut Street bank in 1887 and served until the second week in Jan uary, 1891. The city opened an ac- count with the bank when it was made city depository. Bardsley at that time was treasurer. No interest was paid Bardsley on the account. Inever met Mir Bardsley as president but twice, and never knew him socially.
 The first intimation had that the bank was paying Bardsley interest was when the cashier came to me and said that Bardsley wanted per cent on his money. The bank could not afford to pay this and the certificates were surrendered and the account withdrawn. Certificates of deposit are issued by all banks and interest paid on them. The account for which we gave Bardsley ths certificates was not check account and the money merely remained in the bank. We never paid Bardsley any interest on the account of the city"
 This practically concluded the gov ernor's testimony, The committee then resumed the examination of the mayors expert accountants
 By the testimony of the experts Bardsley in addition to his various ille- gal sources of profit to himself appears to have had the use of s653, s33 for two months. This money belonged to the sinking fund and was the proceeds of the sales of loans to pay the city's debt. Bardsley, instead of at once aying the money into the treasury, loaned it out at interest for the period mentioned.

STARVING LABORERS.
Great Destitution i'm the Cumberland
 Dlstrict in England.

LONDON, Aug. 1s.-Owing to the ''de- pression in the iron trade operations at many of the principal iron works in the Cumberland district have been suspended for some time past, and the inability of the Aworkmen to procure employment is causing the most acute distress. Eight thousand men have been thrown out of employment by the stoppage of the works, and large number of them have earned nothing for year. Many families have struggled along, hoping for better times, but hopes of the works again starting up has been abandoned now, and the outlook for the coming winter is of the gloomiest nature
 The families of the iron workers. men, women and children all show traces. of the privations they have suffered through the enforced idleness of the bread winners, and it is an ab- solute fact that hundreds of them are on the verge of starvation.
 So serious has the situation become that the authorities have decided to start public works to give employment to the many idle men in the district and thus avert the famine which is threatened.

Tho Invitation to she International Aygienic Congress Co Meet in Chi-

LONDON, Aug, l9.-The St. Peters. burg agent of press bureau has been furnished with an inspired denial of the report that secret..treaty has been concluded between Russia and France. In this denial it is said that neither Admiral Gervais nor any other French or Russia representative has signed or concluded verbally any convention be- tween France and Russia It is also asserted that the we'll known r'approchment between France and Russia does not date from the present time, but was oecasioned long ago by international circumstances rather than by spontaneous desire of the powers themselves. and that it has since continued to grow closer. In conclusion this inspired statement says that it depends entirely upon the gov ernments and the peoples forming the dreibund whether the friendly relations existing between Russia and France shall retain their present simple status or resolve into stronger and more formal agreement.
