= The determinations to. call, an extra
session had hardly been announcer ere
there was hasty departure from the
white house; and shortly after 4 o'clock
the president was en- route TO Buzzard's
Bay to join Mrs. Cleveland Beyond fix-
other business was transacted, ii being
the desire of the chief magistrate to
give as much time as possible to the
preparation of his message to congress,
besides recuperatihg from his work
since the inauguration It is under
stood that the president will transact
only the most urgent public business

The determination to call the extra
session the first week in, August, in
stead of the first week in September, it
is understood; was only definitely ar
rived at at Friday mornings cabinet
session after giving full weight to the
numerous kilograms received from all
parts of the country urging this
course. And the consideration
which ,',- Observation-Disclosures to
change his mind was foreshadowed
in q remark made by one of his cabinet
officers two days. thatg~if the presi-
dent received reasonable assurances
that there was likelihood. of prompt
repeal of the so-called Sherman pur-
chase law he might be disposed to call
congress together earlier than he had
announced. It is inferred from the
fact that the president has done so that
he considers he has obtained the assur-
RANGES which he desired. -
Developments make it appear that
the disturbances of values arising from
the opportunities of the situation grew
so alarming that. Mr.. Cleveland at last
was compelled to acknowledge that
''the unexpected contingencies necessi.

which he spoke of in histcelebrated in.

ton of the British government in India
brought matters to crisis. Previous

bad manifested firm determination To
adhere to his plan Of calling congress
in September: After the suspension OF
silver coinage in India the president
resolptely declined to speak. 1further
about his Intentions until he should
be prepared to act, and each
Of his cabinet officers maintained
q similar silence. It may be stated,
however, without violating conf
dence, that from the day when the an.
nouncement of the action of India was
made the president took steps to keep
himself forewarned through the press
dispatches Of the slightest approach to
panic in the money market, and was
prepared at any moment TO take the
course which he has now adopted if it
seemed to him that his so doing, would
in any way tend to allay alarm and re.
store public confidence.
When On Friday he found kilograms
on his table not only from the eastern
and middle states, but also from the
south, and even, from, some. of the silver
states, urging that congress be called
together at the earliest day possible,
TO end the uncertainty, he determined
to delay no longer; 6ut even in taking
