equally unreliable, though it is not i'm
probable that Cleveland and Carlisle may
have disagreed in regard TO the conduct
Of the details OF the Treasury. Even IL
there should have been disagreement
concerning the redemption of Treasury
notes-whether with gold or silver
that disagreement need not cause the

much & matter Of policy as Of law. Con
gress makes laws for the redemption OF
the governments obligations and the
Secretary of the Treasury and the Presi
dent execute them. They cannot differ
except as to the Interpretation Of those

TIE Pennsxl lvania Steel Company, one
Of the most Extensive corporations Of its
kind in the country, yesterday passed
into the hands Of receivers. Major
Luther S. Bent, the president OF the
company, and the Girard Life Insurance.
Annuity and Trust Company, which is
trustee Of the mortgages, were appointed
receivers by Judge Pennypacker in Com
mon Pleas Court, Philadelphia. The bill in
equity fled by Alfred Earnshaw, a mer-
chandise creditor, and E. Robert Coke, a
stockholder, says the board Of directors
is powerless to continue operations on
account of lack Of funds, and that the
corporation Is insolvent. The company
has extensive plants at Steelton, near
Harrisburg, and at Sparrow's Point, near
Baltimore, the latter operated under It's
control by the Maryland Steel Company
for which a receiver was appointed IN
Baltimore. The capital stock of the
company is S5,O0O coo, and the works al
steelton cost $4,000, OOO and employ
4,5OO men. Major Bent is one OF
the manufacturers who, like Mr.
