GOLD FOR SILVER NOTES.


NEW YORK. Aug. ia crucial test of
the policy of the government was made TO.
day. when Heidelbach. Ykelheimer II Co.
rendered 81 ,000,000 in treasury notes which
were issued on account of silver purchases,
and demanded for them one million gold
for shipment to Germany by to-morrow's
steamer The treasury officials made no
demur. but paid ont the million gold in ex-
change for treasury notes, and the gold
was carted away and put on the steamer.
The transaction excited some comment, as
no home institution or home banking firm
has ever In the history cf the gov ernment,
made like demand on tie treasury, and
in some quarters an impression prevailed
that the exporting firm took this step not
SO much TO take the profit on the shipment
which. in itself. is too Insignificant tor O
banking firm to consider but really for the
purpose of forcing q crisis.
Assistant Treasurer Roberts was at the
sub-treasury while the gold for Germany
was being carted away. He admitted that
1t was the first time such q demand was
made. although gold has heretofore been
given partly for old and partly for new
treasury notes. He said in reply to ques-
tIOns: NO steps have been taken by the
administration to prevent or obstrucr the
export of gold. The government stands
ready TO meet all Its obligations In gold
and will pay them all in gold. Its free
gold balance now amounts to 81 1000 co.,"
By this statement of Treasurer Roberts it IS
clear that the government has already de-
cided on plan to pay all the silver treas
ury notes In gold IL it Is demanded.
Vice-president Cannon of the Fourth Ma
tional Bank said he did not think that the
gold surplus would be reduced at present,
but that it would be increased instead, as
the treasury is now receiving gold from the
Eastern banks for transshipment to the
West. and the West Is paying out currency
on account of these shipments. BY this
step last = year the government increased it's
gold holdings S14, ,0O0, coo.

Republican National League Convention
Will Not Meet Till sept 10.
NEW YORK. Aug. 15.-Hon. j. S. Clarkson,
president of the National League of Repub-
lican Clubs, has issued the following notice
of the postponement of the league conven-
tion:
"The date of the Republican National
League convention, called heretofore for
Buffalo. n. Y. Sept. 1. is hereby postponed
until Tuesday. Sept 15 This postpone
ment, which is done with the concurrence
tional committee. is mads because the ear
lier date would prevent the attendance OF
n large number of Republican clubs IN the
Western States. where the harvest of the
various crops will not have been finished
by Sept. /. by the middle of Sep
rembrr the party will have per-
fected irs organization in all por.
tions of the country; many new clubs
will have been organized. and n much larg-
er number of campaign marching and uni
form clubs will be able To attend the ma
tional convention. The cooler weather Of
the later dato will also be more favorable
and induce larger general attendance
than convention held In the closing days
of August.
The national committee of the league
calls upon oil subordinate clabs To Join
actively In stimulating the organization of
marching clubs To the end that rivalry
between the different State organizations
in the number of clubs sent TO the national
convention may make the proceedings at
Buffalo more interesting. and enable 10 10

campaign now in progress"

BUCHANAN BOLTS DEMOCRACY.

Tennessee's Governor Says He Will Run
an Independent Candidate.
NASHVILLE. Tenn, Aug. 15.-John p.
Buchanan, Governor of this State, has
bolted the Democratic party, and to-day, in
lengthy address, announces he is an in
dependent candidate for Governor, and
asks the votes of all citizens, regardless of
past party affiliations. He bases his can
dIdacy upon the allegations that he has
been called upon by majority of the rank
aud file of the party, that he and his
friends have been badly treated by the
Democratic conventions, county and State;
that he represents the true Jeffersonian
Democracy. and that the Democratic con-
vention which refused TO nominate him re-
pounced the true principles of Democracy
enunciated In former platforms. He an
nOunces his platform touching state and
national matters as follows: Free coinage
of gold and silver at present ratio; increase
of circulating medium by the general gov
ernment sufficient to meet all the necessities
of trade. business and commerce; abolition
of netional tanks; graduated income tax;
free commerce; tariff only when sufficient
revenue cannot be raised from other
sources; election of United States Senators
by the people; restrictions in dealing in
futures on agricultural products; opposi-
tion to the force bill and federal inter-
ference with State elections; no alien own
ership of lands. AS to State affairs, he
favors the abolition of the convict lease
system; a law providing for arbitration in
the settlement of strikes and labor diff
cultiee; a constitutional conventions; the
prohibition of the working of children in
mines and factories under fourteen years
of age.
Governor Buchanap's independent candi-
dacy had been expected. and but little sur.
prise was expressed when the published
announcement appeared. The Peoples
party meets in convention next Thursday
to nominate q candidate for Governor In
this city. and this fact fastened Governor
Buchanan's announ cement. for his inde-
pendent candidacy will be Endorsed by this
convention. There are now four oandi.
dates for Governor in this State.

MAY EXTEND To JERSEY CITY.
Switchmen May Strike In Sympathy, but
the Officers Fear No Trouble.

Switchmen May Strike In Sympathy, but
the Officers Fear No Trouble.
NEW YORK, Aug. 15.-The strike of the
switchmen and train hands on the Lehigh
Valley and the Erie railroads at Buffalo
may extend to the yards OF the various
railroads in Jersey City. The men in those
yards receive the same pay and are worked
just as many hours as the switchnen in
ley yards said to-day that there would be q
meeting held some day this week by the
memb bers of the Switchmen's Mutual Aid
Association in Jersey City to consider
the question Of ordering general
strike In all the railroad yards in the
vicinity of Jersey City. This organization
is made up of freight conductors. switch
men, night helpers and day helpers. The
men complain that they are required to
work from twelve to fifteen hours q day
and they want to be paid extra for every
hour they work over ten hours q day.
wages of from 2 to 4 cents an hour. There
are seven hundred employees in the Erie
yards, six hundred in the jersey Central
yards, seven hundred In the Pennsylvania
yards, three hundred I'm the Lehigh Valley
yards and five hundred In the Delaware,
Lackawanna 81 Western yards. They will
all go out If O strike Is ordered.
The strike at Buffalo is beginning to
make itself felt In Jersey City. Freight
traffic over all the roads which come into
Jersey City from the West 10 partially
suspended. The number of freight trains
which arrive daily from the West over the
Lehigh Valley and the Pennsylvania rail-
roads is now constantly diminishing. Many
trains are stalled at or near Buffalo, and
may repain there for several days. Those
which reach Jersey City are, in the maiori-
ty of cases, several hours late. Some of
the trains arrive with only two-thirds of
the usual number of cars. The effect of the
strike is worst on the Lehigh VAL
ley, since the largest yards on
that railroad are situated in Buffa-
10. Nearly all the freight which is
shipped to New York and other Eastern
points from the West passes through
requires quick transportation the delay in
the strike on this end of the road has not
become very serious as yet but, should the
strike last for any length of time. it would
be almost impossible to forv ard the trains.
The officers of the company are making
arrangements. however. to combat the diff
ticulty as we'll ae possible.
Central Office detectives were to-day
watching the executive officers of the Erie
railroad at the Coal and Iron Exchange,
which. while precautionary, seems to in
indicate that the officers of that corpora
tion fear violence. Regarding tho strike
ut Buffalo, Second Vice-president Valleau
said that he did not think the trouble
would extend to the Jersey City yards. and
it was his opinion that the strike would be
of short duration. Other officers do not
think the strike will extend to this point.
