A BETTER FEELING
CLEVELAND'S STATEMENT HAS
A GOOD EFFECT,

And the Financial Atmosphere Is
Partially Cleared-Said That New
York Bankers Have Offered the
Treasury $40, 100000 to $40, ,00O,-
y 900 Gold.
NEW YORK, April 25.-The explicit
statement Of President Cleveland that
the government would continue to pay
out gold for treasury notes as well as
for greenbacks, and that it never had
any other intention, has succeeded in
partially clearing the financial atnos-
phere. That the balance of trade, how
ever, is still against this country was
shown by thefact that $3.50, 900 more gold
was taken from the subtreasury during
the morning for export. Half of it was
paid in for treasury notes.
1T is expected" said one bank presi-
dent, that we shall continue to ship
about 5000, 000 OF gold week until
the demand is oyer-that is until the
balance of trade is reversed or until
some Of cur unmarketed products are
sent forward and can be drawn against. !"
Gold From New York Banks.
Conrad N. Jordan took charge of the
sub-treasury during the morning as
assistant treasurer. J. Edward Sim
mons, president of the Fourth National
bank; Henry W. Cannon, president of
the Chase National bank; Brayton
Ives, president OF the Western National
bank; Charles J. Canada, ex-assistant
treasurer, and ex-Secretary Fairchild
were in Mr.. Jordan's private room.
They were in consultation with Mr..
Jordan for some hours. During that
time George H. Coe, president of the
American Exchange National bank,
called and saw Mr.. Jordan twice Mr..
Coe declined to be quoted in relation to
Mr.. Cleyeland's statement on the situa-
ton. Mr. Jordan and the bank officials
mentioned were in conference until 2
o'clock. It is rumored that the New
York banks, as the result of the confer
ence, would turn $15, 600, 900 or $40, ,00O,-
600 of gold into the treasury. The con-
ferees uniformly decline, in most en-
phatic manner, to anticipate any action
of the government.

Two Condemned Mnrderers Over
power Their Guards.
SING SING, N. Y, April s2.-Rohle and
Pallister, two murderers under SEN
tence of death, have escaped from the
prison here.
1t was not until $40 o'clock a. m.
that it was discovered that the MUIR
derers had escaped. When Guard Glinn
entered the condemned cell building as
usual at that hour he was astonished at
discovering the two night watchmen
locked in the murderers' cells. When
the guards were released, they told a
remarkable story.
Story of the Guard.
Guard Hulse said that at o'clock p.
m. he passed supper into Pallister. The
condemned man threw handful of pep
per into the. guards eyes. Hulse was
blinded and Pallister rushed on him,
took his revolver away from him and
under threats of death forced Hulse
into his (Pallister's) cell, first taking the
keys away from him. He then locked
Hulse in the cell and unlocked the cell
of Murderer Frank Rohle The two
murderers then unlocked the cells of
Carlyle w. Harris and Murderer Os-
mond. They invited these two to es-
cape with them.
Both Harris and Osmond Refused
the offer to escape. Pallister and Rohle
waited until o'clock, when Guard
Murphy came on duty. AS Murphy
entered the corridor, Pallister presented
his pistol at Murphy's head, and, taking
his keys away from him, locked him in
Rohle's cell. Pallister took Guard
Hulse's shoes and cap away from him
and put them on himself. Threatening
to kill the guards if they made any out
cry, the two murderers climbed down
into the yard and made their escape.

MILWAUKEE, April 21.-The man
Miller who was rescued from the wreck
OF the waterworks crib is the only sur
vivor left to tell the terrible experience
through which the men were COM
PEELED to pass. Fourteen men lie
drowned in the air-lock or have been
carried away. Chey are:

MICHAEL DYER, fireman, Milwaukee.

lEiller's Story.
Miller, the man who was rescued
from the crib by The life saving crew,
has recovered sufficiently to give the
story Of the tragedy. He said the crib
house was SO dangerous that all hands,
Is in number, went down into the air
lock. They were quite comfortable
until the house was blown away. They
knew it was gone when the air pump
stopped working. This was about 6
o'clock. When the pump stopped the
air kept growing worse until $50
o'clock when it became so bad that it
was proposed by some to leave the lock
and take chances outside. The subject
was discussed for some time and finally
all agreed to it as it was found they
Could Not Live Much Longer
where they were. Accordingly the air
lock was opened and the water allowed
to come in Mcbride, Dwyer, Gregg,
johnson, Leikowitz and Miller sue
ceeded in getting out of the lock and to
the surface. To do this they had to
climb up through 10 feet of water. The
other nine, Miller says, could not find
the ladder ard were drowned in the
lock. When he got on the crib he
wound the wire cable, which runs from
a drum toward the shore, around his
arm and was then able to hold on until
the lifeboat arrived. He says that
Dwyer, Gregg, johnson and Leikowitz
held on about half hour and then one
by one were swept away. Mcbride held
on until within 10 minutes of the ar
rival of the boat and he too succumbed
and was washed off before the arrival
Of the boat.
