Naval rendezvous at Hampton
Hoads is now thing of the past,
and will go down into history as
one of the most brilliant marine
pageants of modern times The
officers and men On the fleet were
up and stirring at an early hour
this morning, getting things in
readiness for the start, which was
fixed for 9 o'clock. It was half
past nine, however, before the Phila-
delphia got under way and started
| up the Roads to the west end of the
feet. She was quickly followed by
the Newark, Atlanta, San Francisco,
Bancroft, bennington and Balti-
more, of Admiral Benham's squad
ron, and the Chicago, Yorktown,
Charleston, Vesuvius and Concord,
of the second squadron, under Ad-
miral Walker.
! Upon arriving at the Point, about
| five miles away, the White squad
ron wheeled into line and came
down past the Fort and stood out
to sea. La the meantime the Dol
phin, with Secretary Herbert and
party, got under way and steamed
up the Roads with one feet, until
they turned, where she remained
to observe the movements of the
: other vessels. AS the White SQUAD
ron came down the Roads they

A MANS WORK.
The Kentucky Woman Who Never Liked
the Idea of Doing 1t.


Away up ON the north fork of the
Kentucky River the Widow Wilson

section for its excellent fare. says a
writer in the Detroit Free Press, and

she said, shaking her head. I've tried
two. an neither one suited.
What was wrong with them?
We'll, Jenkins. he wuz the fust one,
she said in a reminiscent tone: he wuz
a orney hound that used to git drunk
an come home an thrash me all over
the place. Ef he hadn't been drinkin'

didn't like the idea nv both. After
he died | married Wilson and he wu2

She laughed softly at the thought
of it,
That was some better than the first,

No, it wuzn't, she promptly replied.
No? Why asked in surprise.
Well I'd kinder got used to jenkins

There is but little distinction nowadays

and dotted with threads Of delicate green.
The skirt was full and rather too

rufies OF green silk, very full and over
lapping. deceive one somewhat as TO the
reason OF the flare. The first group OF
them. three in number was set at the
bottom Of the skirt; the second midway
between hem and waist line. Down the
two side seams OF the skirt ran cascades
OF fine white guipure. The bodice fitted
closely and was held AT the waist by a
plain ribbon belt Of green, fastened into
a silver buckle. over the foundation
waist was folded, flchu fashion PLAN

decolletage IN a V-shaped pattern. The

rope Is hungering for investments. Money
Is now only per cent. IN London. and IL
matters do not improve II WIN be L IL
per cent. and 1 per cent. They DO not
know what 70 do with IL.
1.-THE moment that our finances ana our
currency are put I'm a strong position
there Will be n rush for our securities
such as has never been seen before.
There will be boom In the STOCK mar
kets such as has never been seen, and
gold will flow this way much faster than
Il has gone out. Needless to say the
mere hint that such a thing as the re-
peal OF the Sherman law is even likely In
the near future will stop the gold ship
ments."
A member Of Heidelbach. 1ckelheimer 4
Co said
1.-THE Presidents statement has had
good effect. There has been Foreign buy
ing OF American securities with the In
crease In confidence due TO Mr. Cleve-
lands declaration. II has helped TO make
foreign exchange weaker. and is likely TO
put a stop 20 the gold shipments tempo
rarily, at least.
AT one time a premium was offered
abroad for our gold. but that Is ended
now. Lately gold has gone out simply TO
cover exchanges Had we been sending
wheat or cotton abroad We should not
have needed to ship coin but with the
light movement Of our staples we had
to export gold. We had 10 pay our debts
and something had 70 go.
THE recent shipment Of gold by
Arbuckle Brothers, a coffee firm, showed
very clearly the condition OF the ex-
change market Rates were SUCH mat II
was cheaper for the commercial house TO
send the coin itself than to try to get
bills.
purchasers OF grain for export have
increased in the last few days, and the
Improvement in this movement should
tend to lessen the need Of shipping gold"
Mr.. Lichtenstein. OF Ladenburg, Thai
mann & Co. said:
"The effect Of the Presidents declara-
ton was marked this morning. London
certainly bought American securities free
~. There was a restoration OF conf
dence i'm the likelihood Of something be-
ing done 10 remedy the silver evil, and ex-
change was affected in consequence.
THE gold shipments have been made for
purely business reasons. We have had
TO send coin for our settlements, because
there was nothing else available. The
balance Of trade has been against us, and
vast amounts Of our securities have been
sent back to us-how much nobody can
estimate closely. In settling the balance
against us the gold shipments have been
inevitable.
There are indications that the settle
ments have been nearly completed. our
grain shipments are picking up, too, but
it must be remembered that grain IS sell
ing at low prices We have eXacted high
rates from Europe FOR our food products
at various times, and one result has been
to cause them TO look In part to other
sources OF supply.
Just now there is certainly lull In the
gold exporting movement. Whether #
will be renewed. or how much more IS
10 go out II It is renewed nobody can
predict What we need most OF all is
TO increase confidence abroad in our fnan-
clal n0llcV"

EFFECT ON FOREIGN CAPITAL.

We have steadily maintained that the
fear of this country descending 70 a sixty
five cent silver dollar basis has been
the occasion. and the Just occasion, Of
the withdrawal OF confidence and cash by
our foreign correspondents and capitalists.
How many millions of dollars employed
in the manufactures and trade of our
country have been taken away on this
account, no one can tell, but the paralysis
with which we are threatened and the
suffering we now experience tell the tale
of woe.
our New York exchanges are replete
with interviews with hnanciers, which
express what is 10 our mind the plain,
simple truth of the case; that the disease
is one Of the mind of people and not Of
the material wealth Of the country.
There has been waning faith in the
financial integrity Of our Government
which finds its illustration i'm the we'll
known instances in trade and finance Of
rich men of bad reputation being unable
to borrow money where men Of moderate
means, but high character. are readily
accommodated.
President Clevelands brave and clear
stand has been like the rallylng call Of
an heroic leader to his demoralized men.
Hear what the gold exporters say:
Among the leading gold exporters II
was agreed that the Presidents state
ment had had an immediate effect I'm
tending to decrease the outward move
ment.
Lazard Freres said that exchange was
weaker, and that helped TO stop gold ship
meats.
The matter is one that depends entirely
upon restoration OF confidence In our
financial condition or n buying move
ment In our commodities. Every one
knows the position OF our import and
export trade with other countries as far
as merchandise Is concerned. Not every
one knows that considerable sums Of
foreign morey are being loaned here ON
deposits Of collateral Confidence has
been shaken as to our finances and our
currency. This has led TO a calling hack
OF money by our foreign creditors.
IN addition 70 this, there have bean
heaVy sales OF American securities nv
europe. Now, a termination of the gold
movement might be accomplished by a
restoration OF confidence abroad through
tns repeal Of the Sherman law. Ali Eu-
