A Proposition From Capt. Meredith, Chief
Of the Bureau Of Engraving and Printing.
Capt. Meredith, Chief Of the bureau Of en-
craving and printing, has an idea which he will
suggest to Secretary Foster to carry out. He
thinks 1t would be good move on the treasury 9
part to issue Q new bank note for circulation
among the people in honor Of the worlds fair.
The Post Office Department proposes to issue q
set Of stamps in honor Of the occasion, and
Capt. Meredith thinks it would be Just as ap-
propriate to get upa Columbian bank note. He
does not suggest the preparation Of q whole SGT
Of notes, a. the preparation Of them would re-
quire too much time, but he thinks that 81
note can be prepared and this would circulate
freely among the people.
There il an engraving Of Columbus in the bu-
reau. 1t was made some years ago by Burt,
who, in his time, was considered the finest Wig

TO him in New York recently for suggestion
for portrait Of Columbus to use on some thing
which be is preparing for the centennial, and
Burt told him Of the engraving at the bureau.
1t 10 full-face portrait, representing Columbus
with q smooth face and wearing O brigandish-
looking hat. A hated portrait would be q nov

troversy over the authenticity Of the Columbian

authentic likeness, for use on the half-dollars,
and has had several photographs of II taken.
The engravers at the bureau are not at all
pleased with the picture, and criticise it from
an artists view point. But IL is not unlikely
that it will be used on the Columbian bank
note If Secretary Foster should authorize it.

UNIFORM TEMPERATURES,

No Sign Of Any Material Changs in the
Weather.
There II . remarkable uniformity in the tenn
perature all over the country. Points Is widely
separated as Albany, N. Y, and Hatteras, N. c.,
report the same temperature; New sleans, La
and Indianapolis, Ind, arc the same; Cincin-
natl, Ohio, and Marquette, Mich; Keokuk,
Iowa, and Little Rock, Ark; Atlantic City, N
j., and Oklahoma territory ali in the same
boat. .s---
Another peculiar feature Is that al Of these
widely separated cities register somewhere In
the eighties, and most of them do not vary fivs
degrees from each other.
This state Of affairs is taken to indicate that
no material change in the weather Is immedi-
ately at hand. There are no storms anywhere
and the only rainfall Is over . small area of
country near the Gull of Mexico.
The reports from the various cities received
at the weather bureau show that within twenty
four hours there had not been but two degrees
Of change in the temperature Of 90 per cent Of
the cities.

GREAT DEMAND FOR GOLD.

No Alarm Felt by Treasury Omcials on Ac-
count OF the Large Sums Asked For.
The treasury officials find nothing disturbing
in the fact that Heidelback, Ichelheimer 4 Co.
demanded and got s1, ,0o0, 900 in gold from the
subtreasury in New York for treasury notes
yesterday. The statement that this ID the
largest sum ever taken out BY one Arm at one
time is not correct. II 10 not sudden run on
the subtreasury. On the 29th Of July the
pressure for gold for export was much greater
that 1t has been since. Qh that day two firms
got between them e2,2O0, 900 in gold for
treasury notss and during the day moro than
u, 900, 600 were paid out in this way.
1t h,s little extraordinary perhaps that
the demand for gold should keep up
80 long, but the department olncials
say that there b nothing in It to cause uneasi-
ness. There Il . feeling in the department that
foreign manipulators have been trying for some
time to run down the market for American 10
curities, and the fact that dlver has sunk 70

rather than TO natural causes. All eforts TO
injure American securities, Il there was such .
