LESS gold went out last Saturday

LESS gold went out last Saturday
than on any other Saturday tor
some weeks, the estimates placing
the sum at half million dollars -; but
as three millions or more were
shipped during the week, the total
for the seven days was larger than
safety demanded. The actual stu
alton is shown by the statement of
the Treasury officials, who frankly
admit that there are only four more
millions of free gold in the vaults.
This is less than the shipments for
last week and if the demand should
continue, will bring the incoming
administration face to face with the
duty of revealing its financial policy
as soon as it assumes office. The
current impression seems to be that
Secretary Carlisle will favor Sec
rotary Fosters idea of issuing a
new series of three per cent bonds,
although in the first Cleveland term
the reserve was held to be available
for an extreme need. The one thing
to be relied on now is that the out
going administration will not forest
all or anticipate any plans which
its successor may have for the
emergency.

MIR. CLEVELAND'S CABIN EFT.

Whatever eulogistic comment the
selection of Judge Gresham by Mr..
Cleveland for the most prominent posi-
ton in his cabinet, may have evoked
from the conservative press OF the
country, the fact still remains that the
selection OF Judge Gresham, is direct
slap in the face of every prominent
Democrat in the cor1iiry.
The old-t:a11.e statesmen of the party
>~t1 nave been holding up their lightn-
S n rods all winter in the direction of
Lakewood are every day panied by
some new evidence Of neglect. The
average Democrat does not know what
to think of it all, and is afraid to lift
his voice lest he may be run out of the
party or lose prospective appointment
for daring to question the wisdom or
the true goodness of Grover Clcve-
land.
The selection of Gresham is particu-
larlY painful. 1t neutralizes in their esti-
nation all the good effects of Carlisle's
selection and shows them that their
own President has no confidence in the
ability OF the leaders of the party which
elected him. They have no proof that
Cleveland does not mean to be
Republican after the Gresham pattern.
They have, indeed, hardly any hope
that he will remember the true blue,
genuine, simon-pure Democracy-the
Democracy OF Morrison, OF Grey, Of
Hill, of German and the rest of the
patriots, who used to look up to Hen
bricks and Thurman and Tllden and
Seymour for their inspiration.
1t is bad enough for them TO be
compelled to swallow Republican
like Gresham, but it is hardly less pain
full to them to see mediocre or obscure
Democrats like Blssell and Lamont and
Morton and Hoke Smith thrust into
the very front of the procession. With
the exception of Lamont, who has no
record in public life except that OF
being a clerk and body guard for
Cleveland, they are men whom the
country at large has not yet had the
pleasure of being acquainted with, even
in the great national whispering gallery
of the press. The other day the
question was "Who is Hoke Smith ?"
to day it is "Who is Morton1"
With all the grumbling and growing
in the Democratic ranks, 1t is clear that
Cleveland is master OF the situation and
that his party can do nothing but help
: iessly follow him in the hope that when
the time comes for emptsing the offices
on which the great mass of the party
have fixed their eager eyes, he may re-
member them. But if the same kind
of policy is TO be applied to the sub
ordinate places that has thus far
marked the construction of the Cabinet,
it is by no means certain that greater
and more grlevous disappointment
does not remain for them. There are
no signs up to date that the Cabinet
contains any headsman or pap peddler
or any one who sympathizes with the
hungry and thirsty among the faithful.
