TREASURY OBLIGATIONS.
The Enormous Amount of Currency That
Is DESTROYED Each Year.

Is Destroyed Each Year.
WASHINGTON, Dec. 29.-In all the re-
Gently written matter about the depleted
condition of the United States treasury,
little or no account is taken of the fact
that with each passing year the treasury
is a large gamer by the complete destruc-
ton by casualty of its Outstanding obliga-
lions. How much this amounts to the
best statisticans of the treasury depart
ment have no means of definitely ascer-
tanning. No two figure alike.
Since 1862, when the government began
to issue paper money. So, SIS, 692, 024 were
issued to July L, 1892 Within the same
period g, $50, 451 .629 were redeemed,
leaving outstanding on July 1, 1892. a
liability against the government OF 1867,
III, 479- In an exhaustive inquiry on the
subject made by United States Treasurer
Hyatt it is estimated that the aggregate
loss on all issues up to January, 1888,
would not be less than s., zoe, 600. The
estimate did not include the fraction cur
rency so cent, % cent, 10 cent and 5 cent
shinplasters which were in such extern
6ive circulation for few years following
the war.
United sta .es Treasurer Nebeker in his
report this year states that more than S15,-
O00. 600 of this fractional currency is OUT
standing, though it has practically gone
out of circulation, and but little more
than $4,000 was presented for redemption
last wear. What is outstanding is held to
a great extent by collectors of coins, and
the value of such is greater than the face
value. The aggregate United States cur
reney, fractional and otherwise, estimated
to have been destroyed and not likely to
be presented for redemption, approx
mates by these figures more than Il, 900, :
600.
Recent estimates prepared in the treas
ury department places the sum as high as
S20, eco, Geo. This money can only be
taken out of the liabilities of the govern
ment by congressional enactment. This
VIII probably be attempted in the near
future.

voyage and was buried at sea.

northwest. She bore down close to her.
She exhibited three red lights showing
that she was unmanageable, but not re-

She lay quite easy and comfortable with
the wind blowing stiff northwest gale.

pairs. Next morning the Gallileo passed
two east bound steamers which would
render any assistance if needed. Captain
Jones says there need be no alarm in re-
gard to her safety.

Ecuador viii Revolt Against the Act of
President Cordero.

New YORK, Dec. ga dispatch from
Panama says Ecuador is in a condition of
unrest, and there is strong reason to sp-.
prehend an approaching revolution. Presi-
dent Cordero has assn med almost despotic
powers, overriding alike the constitution
and laws. He has used the veto power in
most drastic manner, annulling financial
and customs laws by congress and leaving
executive work without semblance OF
legality. The president is now practi-
cally dictator, and there is every reason
to believe revolution will shortly break
out, with view of re- establishing con-
stitutional government.

CITY OF MEXICO, Dec. 29.-The report
that 800 Mexican troops, under General
Garcia, had been routed by ESQ revolu-

Garcia telegraphed the governor yester-

engagement.

for defendant argues that Garcia, with
whom Hernandez was connected, is not
a revolutionist but common bandit.

This Race.
LONDON, Dec. 29-Latest advices from
st. Petersburg and other parts of Russia
show that persecution of Jews and the
inhumanity OF the Cars officials towards
the unhappy race is greater than ever be-
fore. Six edicts have been issued aiming
to disperse Jewish subjects in Russia,
weaken their position at trading centers
and crush out their religion. These edicts
have been enforced with the utmost rigor
and severity everywhere. Moscow papers
boast that since the beginning of 1891
20, 900 Jews have been converted to ortho-
doxy. The condition of the Jews except
in Lodi and few other places is becom-
case OF those who have no means to bride
