ARGENTINE FINANCES.
The Rothschilds Trying to Arrange Fl

The Rothschilds Trying to Arrange for
Payment of Bond Interest.
: LONDON, Dec. 1.-the Rothschilds
commission which arranged with the
Argentine government the suspension
of interest IN payments in cash has
been using its great influence in 0ppos-
ing the recommendations Of DR.. Ro-
nero, the finance minister, who now
wants the interest 20 be funded.
DR.. Romero's recommendation
amounts practically 10 . breach OF
bondholders and would be an effectual
hlndrance to any further assistance be-
ing given to the Argentine government
bv European financiers.
The Rothschild commission confided
the Moratorium arrangement In Nor
gan IL Co., who, since the collapse of
the Barings, have been the leading me-
dunn between the Argentine govern
ment and the bondholders. The large
interest which this Anglo-American
banking firm has in the honest admin
istration of Argentine finance entities

ernment on straight course.
During the Barring crisis the question
was discussed in European financial
control. The Romero project has
caused q renewal Of the question
whether the three p0wers-Germany,
France and Great Brltain-could not
themselves collect the customs reve-
nue.. applying the proceeds to the serv-
ices of the debt.
When the idea of intervention was
first mooted France and Germany en-
tertainsd it feebly, whilst Lord Sails
bury objected. Argentine has more
assured period of prosperity before her
appeals to the bondholders. But the
very fact that the question of force
being employed proves how investors
dIstrust the position.

JAY GOULD'S TRIP.
General Denial That He Is Going

General Denial That He Is Going
South for His Health.
New YORK, Nov. 29.-lt was reported
in Wall street yesterday that Jay Gould
had ordered his private car to be placed
in readiness, and would start for Ell
Paso, Tex, where he would spend the
winter. This action was said to be
made necessary by the state of MIR.
Gould's health, which imperatively de-
manded the change. At Mr.. Gould's
Office, in the Western Union building,
no information could be obtained. 1t
was said that his son, George j. Gould.
had gone home early, and that no one
else knew anything about MIR. Gould's
plans or health.
Russell Sage, when asked as to Mr..
Gould'S tip, said that he knew nothing
about it. He had not seen Mr.. Gould
for several days, but he understood that
he was recovering from bis recent bill
lous attack. He did not believe that
MIR. Gould would go away just at pres
ent and George j. Gould had told him
yesterday morning that his father was
much better.
When reporter called at George j.
0oulu'S mouse, his inquiries were
equally fruitless. Mr.. Gould was not
at home, and it was not known when he
would be. Nothing was known as to
his fathers condition or plans. At the
home OF DIR. Mum, Jay Gould's physi-
clan. similar answers were given to re-
porters. DR.. Mum was not at home
and no one knew anything about Mr..
Gould. At the house of Jay Gould it
was said that Mr.. Gould was we'll. and
nothing was known of his reported
journey.
1t was stated at Jay Gould's residence
tonight that the current reports of his
illness were false. Mr.. Gould was said
to be enjoying his usual health"

CHICAGO, Nov. 20 The efforts to or
ganize tonnage pool in the territory of
the Western Freight association and
the territory formerly embraced in the
Trans Missouri association was resumed
today, when the special committee of
managers met and took up the work
where it was dropped three weeks ago.
Since the last meeting Traffic Manager
sage, Of the Rock Island; Traffic Man
ager Monro, of the Union Pacific. and
Traffic Manager Washburn, of the Kan
sas City, Fort Scott Il Memphis, have
been added to the committee.
The entire day was spent in trying to
make satisfactory application OF the
pooling scheme to traffic west of the
Missouri river. This was found TO be
the most difficult task that has yet been
encountered in connection with the un-
dertaklng, as i see med next to impos-
SiOle Tor the roads to agree as to what
points should be included under the
mead OF competitive and subject TO the
proposed division of traffic. The Trans
Missouri lines claimed more advantages
Than the lines east of the river were
willing to concede to them, the Burling-
Ington 4 Missouri River road assuming
a more arbitrary position than ever be-
fore in this respect.
v hen the committee adjourned this
evening, little or no progress had been
made, and, although 1t was decided to
meet again tomorrow, the managers
have slight hope Of overcoming the diff
flcultles that now beset them. One of
them remarked after the adjournment
That the prospect OF establishing plan
for the division Of competitive traffic
was not nearly so bright as it was few
weeks ago, and that the effort would
probably be abandoned until next

PROMOTED FOR BRAVERY.
Secretary Tracy Fifty Rewards a
Brave Sailor,

WASHINGTON, Nov. 2S. - Secretary
Tracy has directed that Henry a Eilers,
recently gunner's mate aboard the
United States cruiser Philadelphia, be
promoted to the position of acting gun
ner in the navy for extraordinary
bravery recently displayed by him by
saving the Philadelphia from being de-
strOyed by an explosion. The ex-
plosion came near resulting in
the loss of three lives. Frag-
ments from cartridge were hurled
down the ammunition chutes to the very
doors of the magazine. The appearance
of these burning fragments came near
occasioning panic among the men of
the powder division. Young Eilers was
on duty at the time at the magazine en-
trance and, fully realizing the danger
which was imminent, stood to his post
until he had stamped out every burning
fragment of cloth. The date of this af-
fair was Sept. II, 1892. Besides pro-
noting Young Eilers to the position of
acting gunner, Secretary Tracy has
secured for him a medal of honor.

KNEW HIS RIGHTS.
A Railway Employe Remembers
the Counselman Case.

OMAHA, Nov. 29.-The federal grand
jury here took up today the case
of the interstate commerce commits
sion against the Missouri Pacific Rail
way company. The company is charged
with making discriminating freight
rates on salt in favor of the works at
Hutchinson, Kan. Frank Chain, the
bill clerk of the railroad at Hutch
inson. was the first witness called.
Before being taken into the grand jury
room he was called into United States
Attorney Bakers Office and assured
that he could testify freely as the testi-
mony would be kept entirely secret. He
was asked it he knew of any salt hay-
ing been billed out of Hutchinson be-
low weight. He refused to answer on
the ground that he might incriminate
himself. To all prominent questions he
answered in the same way. The at
torney told him what the results would
be if he refused to testify. He replied
by saying that he knew his rights and
proposed to avail himself of them. An
adjournment was taken until tomOr-
row. The complaint in the case was
made by the small shippers of Kansas
against the Hutchinson combine.
