Plenty of Money to Pay Bonds.


WASHINGTON, Aug. 25.-The amount Of
four-and-a-half per cent. bonds continued
at 2 per cent. to date is S21, S37, 1OO. and Sec
rotary Foster said to-day that it was his
impression that the amount would run over
$50, GOO, OCO before the transaction closes.
If his expectations are realized there will
be less than $50, 900, 900 of the four-and-a-
half per cent. bonds subject to redemption
after Sept. 2, the limit within which the
bonds must be presented for continuance
Secretary Foster said to-day that there
will be no difficulty whatever in meeting
this payment. or a larger one if necessary,
without recourse to the one-hundred-mill-
iOn-dollar gold reserve and the S11,OO0.OO
on deposit with national banks. The Sec
rotary said that, including S49,o ,ooo,
bank redemption fund, etc, there
is an available balance of $780,
OOU. 900, exclusive of the gold reserve of
500. 600, Oo0, and he regarded that as ample
to meet all current obligations of the gcv-
eminent. The bonds, he added. are, of
course, redeemable in gold. if demanded.
and there is over S29,00O,00O of that coin in
the Treasury in addition to the gold re-
serve" an amount In itself more than suffi-
cient TO redeem all the four-and-a-half per
cents. that will be outstanding Sept. ,.
The Secretary said. also. that he regarded
the amount of public funds in the hands of
discussing officers as greatly In excess of
the needs of the service and that he was
considering a plan whereby it may he
greatly reduced. There is now, he said, a
balance of S35, 900. 600 in the hands of these
officers, for a considerable portion of which
there is no immediate need, and it is his
opinion that this amount could be reduced
to about $40, 900, 600 and maintained at that
figure without embarrassment to public

factions In aid OF long-oherished objects,

quent upon the settlement of the estate.

THEY WORK TOO CHEAPLY
Baltimore Knights of Labor Protest
Against the Influx of Russian Jews.
They Cannot Compete with the Assisted I'm.

Labor-WageS Received by Tailors.
Specialize the Indianapolis journal.


WASHINGTON, Aug. 25.-There is every
indication that q crisis is arising in the
matter of the present assisted Jewish immi-
grafton from Russia. 1t has been the be-
lief of the Treasury Department, as we'll as
of the new Bureau Of immigration. that
ere long there would arise complications.
resulting from the sudden influx of people
men and women who arc willing to work
at almost any price. The complaint has
come. A formal protest was received to-
day at the Treasury Department from q
labor organization in Baltimore, which is
composed of ~tail0rs, who work for
the very many r~eady-made clothing
houses in that city. Their union belongs
to the knights of Labor. In the protest
sent to the department it is stated that
large numbers of these Russian immigrants
remain in Baltimore and that they make
up ready-made clothing at such very low
rates that American wOrkmen cannot COM
pete with them, and an instance is given of
the results of this competition In the state
ment that whereas one year ago the Baltl-
more workmen were paid S2.15 q dozen for
finishing vests, the steady increase of I'M
migrants has cat down labor so cheap that
now only Sl.45 per dozen is paid fol-. the
same work. price, il is added, which 1t
is impossible for Americans to accept.
1t is understood that there have also
been complaints from some other organiza-
tions in Baltimore. but this is the first
formal protest. and the department feels
itself compelled to take some notice of the
matter. 1t is stated, unofficially it is true.
but from excellent authority, that there
have grown up IN Baltimore recently
sweat pits" which rival the most horrible
tenements in New York, Rochester n
Chicago. Just what steps the Treasury off,
Gals will take it is as yet impossible TO say.
ment that American workingmen protest
against this influx of labor that is no bet
ter than pauper labor, and which Is as un-
desirable as are the Huns, and it is a ques-
will be put mp against these people.
