DECLINE IN STOCKS.
Small Amount OF Free Gold Held
RESPONSIBLE.


NEW YORK, Feb. 25.-While the re-
markable declines of some stocks dur
ing the last week have their particular
causes, yet the general decentralization
that has characterized the market is
largely due to the increasing diStrust in
the financial condition. The knowledge
that if the situation becomes much more
acute collateral will be scrutinized more
closely and the pool" stocks may
be disseminated against, creates a
sentiment of uncertainty. but accentu-
ates the inherent weakness of the
market. This is all largely due to q
knowledge that the amount OF free
gold is rapidly approaching the vanish
ing point, or, as the speculative COM
munity is largely actuated by sentiment
and discounting of future contingent
cies, there is feeling Of uncertainty as
to what will happen when this point is
reached. While the free gold IS
nominally about $4,000, 600, yet as
has been pointed out, the
surplus reserve is kept intact simply
by the sutferance of the banks. but re-
serve is really at the present time about
sos. 1000, 600. In view Of the fact that ad-
ditional gold shipments are predicted
early next week. it promises to be a
neck and neck race between the pres
ent administration and the utter elimln-
alton of the small balance of apparently
free gold before March 4. If the feat
is ACCOMPLISHED the secretary OF the
treasury will undoubtedly breathe
easier

SYSTEM FEDERATION.
Santa Fe Employees Preparing to
Put the Plan Into
Effect.
Buffalo Switchmen Going to Get
Square With With Their Chi
cago Brethren.

DENVER, Col, Feb. 25.-An evening
paper prints the following: There is
big deal on the Santa Fe system of rail-
roads. The entire army of employees
from Chicago to California are laying
plans to organize vast federation, in
GLIDING every order of workingmen on
the system. The place set for the
deliberation which it is hoped
will consummate this gigantic
confederation is Wichita, Kan. The
gathering will contain delegates
from all orders connected with the line
engineers, firemen, railway photographers
and brakemen. The boys are quite
retcent over the affair, and shake their
heads when questioned as to the object
of their meeting. They say it is grand
movement all along the line to combine
for protection to better cope with
the management. When asked if
there is any dissatisfaction that is
likely to end i'll strike Or III demand
for increase of wages, the men say no.
Neither will they allow that the death
of President Marvel has anything to do
with the enterprise. The utmost
secrecy attends the movements
of the parties at interest. Last
night a delegation Of Denver Santa
Fe men, representing each OF
the orders-englneerS, firemen, railway
their grips and quietly boarded the train
for Wichita. 1t was impossible TO as
certain the names OF the Denver repre-
sentatives. 1t is supposed on the out
side that the move means something OF
more than ordinary interest and some
confidently predict lively times on the
Santa Fe within a short period.
BUFFALO, n. Y, Feb. 25.-Thirty-o
sWitchmen, who have been out OF en-
ployment since the big strike OF last
fall, left here tonight for Chicago TO

CHICAGO, Feb. 24.-Gen. Bragg, &C
companied by his wife, stopped at the
Victoria hotel today on his way to
Washington from his home in Wiscon-
sin. They will spend about two weeks
in Washington, during which they will

Speaking about politics, the general
said:
''Mr. Cleveland's selection of cabinet
officials shows his strongly marked
individuality. This one of his char
acteristics had more to do with his selec-
ton by the people am as president
than any other pleased with the selec-
ton of Judge Gresham. l believe him
to be a clear-headed man of broad
views. and absolutely fearless. An adj
ministrative officer needs to be fearless
these days. In party affairs | believe
new era has been reached. Many men
in each party in New York are not in
sympathy with party principles, and
these men will in the future think and
act alike"

at Lakewood.
LAKEWOOD, N. j., Feb. 25.-Hon.
John G. Carlisle arrived from Washing
ton today, and was met at the station by
Mrs. Cleveland. He entered the Cleve-
land carriage and was driven to the
cottage, where he found the president
elect and Judge Gresham awaiting
him. Mr.. Cleveland and his
chief advisers held a conference
which lasted until 8 O'Clock. Then
ton by Mrs. Cleveland, and Mr.. Cleve-
land and Mr.. Carlisle went out for a
walk. Judge Gresham took the 3:45
train for New York. He declined to
talk about the object of his visit, and
said that he would return at once to
Chicago. Mr. Carlisle will be Mr.. Cleve-
lands guest over Sunday.
Mr.. Cleveland's plans for the trip to
Washington are now fairly complete.
1t was his original intention to travel
only at night. But this plan has now
been changed, so that the special train
will leave New York on Thursday
morning next at 10 O'clock, making
no stops between New York and Lake
wood. where it will take up the
president-elect and the members of his
family and party. When the train
leaves New York it will carry, as the
guests of the president-elect, eX-Post-
master General Don M. Dickinson and
wife, Col. Daniel S. Lamont, his wife
and children; Robert LINCOLN O'Brien,
the stenographer; E. G Benedict,
wife and two daughters, Richard
Watson Glider and his wife and per-
haps one OF two orther persons who are
not yet known, although it is not likely
that the party will be much enlarged
beyond those already mentioned. The
train will run through to Washington
direct, reaching there some time be-
tween 6 and O'clock in the evening.
The entire party will go directly to the
Arlington hotel, as heretofore an
nounced.

ton that came up was an nndergradu-
ate rule which Yale advocated. 1t was
defeated by vote of ii to 8.
A number of amendments to tie con-
stitution were offered by the executive
committee. One of them provided that
if competitor in race were fouled and
run out, the race should be postponed
for time not exceeding one month.

amendment providing that not more than
eight men should be entered in any ono
event by college and not more than
five men from any college be allowed to
start in an event. was carried. There
was also adopted an amendment provid-
ing that entries to games shall close at

Both Sides Are Anxious in South

PIERRE, S. D., Feb. 25.-The house

facture Of binding Irvine penitentiary
convicts; also general education law

railroads by fixing rates. A bill was in

law is now enforced. The prohibition
question is still the leading issue, and
the vote will be so close in both houses
that the result may hang On one vote in
