spring would arrive. Now they shake
their heads and declare that the giddy
youth IS counting so many cities that
he cannot make up his mind when to

been made immortal by the statement

THE ANTl-OPTION BILL

WASHINGTON, Feb. 1.-THE anti-option
bill has been only sleeping during the last
few days, while the appropriations and
silver were absorbing the interest of the
senate, but now that the latter has been
shelved and the appropriation bills are
getting out of the way, anti-options will
be brought to the front 1t is probable
that Mr.. Hatch will make move in be-
half of his pet measure some time next
week.
As soon as the appropriations are out of
the way the house will have some time on
its hands. There are number of REQUESTS
for special orders pressing on the rules
committee. Mr.. Hatch is after a special
order for the agricultural measure. He
wants three days, but that is more than
he is likely TO get at this stage of the
session.

WASHINGTON, Feb. 1.-THE car coupler
Dill passed today by the senate provides
that after the first of January, 1895, it
shall be unlawful for any common carrier
to haul, or permit to be hauled or used on
its line, any car used in moving interstate
traffic not equipped with couplers coupling
automatically and without the necessity
tor men going between the cars. Any
company or firm having complied with
these requirements, may refuse to receive
from connecting lines or shippers any cars

THE FLIGHT OF GOLD.

NEW YORK, Feb. l1--The steamship La
Bretagne, which sailed today. carried S3,-
10000 in American gold, of which s. lou,
600 was withdrawn from the sub-treasury.
The total gold exports for 1898 TO date
amount to S15,650 600. The steamship
Servia, also sailing today, carried 100000
ounces of silver and 10000 Mexican
dollars. The total shipments of silver for
1898 to date amount to s., 162, 600 and SOO,-
600 Mexican dollars
The local banks, it was learned today,
will not volunteer further aid to the
treasury, and will do SO reluctantly even
on request. They say as has been report
ed, that they will turn gold into the SUBJ
treasury as members of the clearing house,
but not as individuals. They hold that
the clearing house should act as whole
and that assessments should be levied on
the banks on the basis of their gold hold
ings. 1t was generally understood today
that a conference of the bankers would be
held on the arrival here of Secretary
Foster this evening. Comptroller Hep
burn, who was in Wall street during the
day, was thought to have arranged for the
attendance of several bank presidents.
The s., $50, 600 in gold taken for export
yesterday was paid for wholly with treas
ury notes, Upiled States notes or gold GER
tifcatcs being rendered. The ubtreasury
report in this city this morning showed
S3.7I2.992 in gold coin. The assistant
treasurer, Mr.. Roberts, said that 81, 100000
more had been received this morning by
transfers. No receipts from the banks
were recorded. Inquiry among important
g Iippers this morning showed an expecta-
JiOu of a normal continuance Of shipments
on their part.
G. G. Williams, president Of the clearing
bx.,, s.,fI 1,rr hah huI 4 In fna
shipments of gold would cOntinne.
But" he added, advances from the
banks have about reached their limit |
hope that Secretary Foster will prepare TO
take immediate action. He should,
think, meet the situation face to face and
issue bonds. There is no other way of
maintaining the parity of the two metals.
In no event must we be placed on a silver
basis"
WASHINGTON, Feb. lin the face of
the heavy shipments of gold for two weeks
past, the treasury department within the
past ten days mas Increased its net gold by
So, 730 900, and now has total of 81, ,927,-
679 over the reserve fund.
NEW YORK, Feb. 11.-Secretary of the
Treasury Foster, in the city ostensioly to
attend the Republican club dinner to-
night. said: Il do not think the situation
critical enough to warrant an issue of
bonds. do not think that the failure to
repeal the Sherman silver act will result
in driving gold out of the country. L be-
lieve that the supply of gold is sufficient
TO meet all legitimate demands. | do not
consider the condition OF the country at all
critical. The government is in position
to redeem all Its promises, but l think
that the gold reserve might be increased"
is there any way OF stopping the ship
ment of gold abroad" he was asked

THE HAWAIIAN COMMISSIONERS.

WASHINGTON, Feb. 1L-President Har-
rison received the Hawaiian commission
ers and accepted their credentials as rep
resentatives OF the present provisional gov
erument this afternoon. He referred the
credentials to the secretary of state, to be
placed on file in the department. There
was a brief but informal reference to
Hawaiian affairs, after which the COM
missioners were invited to make an in
spection of the state department and the
conservatory. Commissioner Marsden
said afterward:
Eve are delighted at receiving official
recognition from the president. That is
what we have been anXiously waiting for
since our arrival"
After the conference with President
Harrison the commissioners held confer
enc9 with the secretary of state, They
laid before the secretary in detail the prac-
tiCal proposition they were authorized to
submit. Some progress was made as to
arriving at harmonious view of the
eXigencles of the situation, but no definite
conclusion was reached and the conference
adjourned till Monday
The Star says: 1T is learned on good
authority that the government has prac-
tically committed itself in favor of the
proposition for the annexation of Hawaii,
and that the president will send Il message
to congress on the subject next week. 1t
Is known that the commissioners feel sat
istied with the present status of the negO-
tiations. They make 10 effort TO conceal
their confidence in the success OF their
mission, aud evidently expect tangible re-
suits IN a short time

last half that creates CONSERVATION in the
minds OF the parties who want the money
10 pay board. etc. Only few OF the men,
bers have drawn even ten days pay from
the committee, and only about dozen of
the employees have received any pay. The
committee is doing its very best. bat they
are none of them popullsts and able TO
create money. Their bed IS not a bed Of
roses, and even those who are waiting for
their money should be thankful that they
are not members Of the COMMITTEES. They
may have right TO grumbie. but certainly
1t IS not the committee that Is 10 blame,
and probably there is no one who should
be held responsible.
The governor today appointed ]. T.
Todd OF Ell Dorado as labor commissioner,
and recommended the appointment of a.

OKLAHOMA IN CONGRESS.

WASHINGTON, Feb. 1.-THE resolution
of the Oklahoma legislature asking for
thirty days extension of the legislative
session has been referred by the house to
the committee on territories. It is not
likely that the extension of time asked
will be granted, as Chairman Washington
of the committee is quoted as follows:
81 do not think that congress should
extend the time for holding territorial
legislatures. As rule, If legislators are
given to understand that they cannot get
pay for extra time, they will get to work
and do all that needs TO be done, and often
times do many things that ought not to
be done. Ny committee will scarcely re-
port favorably on the matter, If, Indeed,
we make any report. The best way to dis
pose Of matters of this kind Is TO make no
report, and they will die very soon."
The concurrent resolution OF the OKLA
homa legislature, asking that certain
lands be set apart for the university at
Norman, the normal school at Edmond
and the agricultural college at Saltwater,
was referred to the committee on Indian
affairs.
The bills granting a right of way
through Indian Territory to the Gaines
ville Oklahoma and Gulf Railway COM
pany and setting aside lands at Chickasha,
0. T., for Rock Island yards have both
passed the senate. The bills had already
passed the house.
