The public debt for August in
creased about ten millions, the ex-
listing revenues are not sufficient
to meet the current expenses of the
government, and yet the Demo-
Gratis are meditating an attack on
the tariff with the avowed inten-
ton of cutting down revenue. The
much and ignorantly abused Nc
KInley tariff is the lowest that has
been levied in this country in
many years, but the Democratic
members in Congress either do not
know this or, knowing, they dis
regard it in the hope of perpetual
ing their misrepresentation of the
effects of Republican measures Of
revenue.

WEDNESDAY,, SEPTEMBER 6.
NO CHARGES PREFERRED.

An excited party in this city in
dulges in a column of rhOdOmOn-
tade over the rebuke of the LIGHT,
directed against the false assertion
that charges had been preferred
against the Fire Chief of this city.
The LIGHT is challenged for it's
reason why it made no comment
upon the. request of certain men,
Der of the city council, that a GER
tain act of the Fire Chief be inVes-
tigated, at the time such re-
quest was made. The answer
is simple; because, at the
time the matter was not of
sufficient Importance to note, being
understood to be matter OF per-
sonal grievance and the investiga-
ton denied, but, when the incor-
rect presentation of the matter by
an evening paper had drawn pa
pers from. other sections of the state
and from other states to reflect un-
justly upon the city, then, the
LIGHT, influenced as it is ever by
it's consideration for truth and the
good name of San Antonio, deemed
it right to deny that any charges
had been preferred against the
chief of the fire department
a fact which it still maintains
and challenges the denial OF
that fact from the record
To contend that the request for al
investigation that was denied by
the council, is in effect a presenta
ton Of charges, is a perVersiOn o
facts and language, for neither o
which the LIGHT is responsible
When complaint is laid before ;
grand jury and investigation asket
two courses are open. If in tn
mind of the jury from their owl
knowledge the case is too insignifi
cant to require attention it is dis
missed without investigation, an
this was just what happened in tn
case under consideration, and We
this would be critic of the LIGH
asserts that refusal to investigat
was equivalent to a charge. Eve
when the jury does investigat,
and no ground for preferring
charge is found, the case is di
missed without any prejudice I
the party complained of, and "
this Daniel come to judgmeI
asserts that a simple request fl
an investigation that is denied, {
not justified from known fact
must be taken as establishing I'll
presentation of charges. BosI
There was a meeting of the eli
council last evening. If charges a
so certain to be preferred again
the fire chief why were they n
brought out then?

New York.

NEW YORK, Nov. 1.-THE only feat
ures of the early market today were
Reading, New England and Chicago
Gas. The interest aroused in those two
specialties yesterday was sufficient to
carry over night. The rest of the list
was dull and inactive, but in the main
firm, with a tendency to advance as
shorts endeavored to cover. New Eng
land was weak, opening off ~, at 81,
and declining to 3614. 1t was not enough
yesterday that the Vanderbilt interests
had cut the road off from its full train
service from the Grand Central sta
ton in this city aud blocked
its traffic scheme by way of
the Poughkeepsie bridge. Today
comes the announcement of a close
alliance between the New Haven &
Hartford and the Lehigh Valley. One
of the strong points in Mr.. McLeod's
recent fairy tales has been the proposed
combination between the New England
and the Lehigh Valley, but it seems he
is checkmated in this, as he has been in
so many other cases. Today the New
England is more of cul de sac than
ever. This new aggressive move on
the part of the Vanderbilt interests
gave the New England stock another
severe wrench and caused the further
break. incidentally, Reading ad-
vanced sharply on the publication
of the new deal, as it was
taken to indicate the pronounced
policy of the Vanderbilts regarding the
coal business. Ii gave further grounds
for hope that this powerful interest
would take an active part In the re-
organization of the company. 1t was
even minated in the enthusiasm of
the moment that favorable plan had
even been agreed or which would In
clude the buying Of the part due cou-
pons on the fours and the consolidation

SECRET SOCIETIES.
Position Of the Catholic Church as
Explained at Hartford.

NEW YORK, Nov. 11.-Members Of a
large number OF secret orders were in
terested yesterday in telegram sent
from New Haven, Conn.,, to the effect
that at conference of Roman Catholic
priests held at Hartford an official cir
cular was read announcing the results
of a council of the archbishops of the
United States investigating secret
societies. The opinion was that the ban
on secret societies of the country was
removed with the exception of that on
Free Masons.
A reporter called on Archbishop Cor
rigan yesterday to ascertain the truth
OF the report, and was referred to Father
Lavelle. of st. Patrick's cathedral.
Father Lavelle asserted positively that
no circular removing the ban from any
secret order had been issued or sent out
to the clergy. The various actions taken
by the archbishops of the country were
made public at the time they were
taken. The meeting in Hartford was
not convened for any special purpose,
put was the regular quarterly meeting
to discuss matters of interest to the
church.
Father Lavelle added: .'The Catholic
church has disapproved of secret orders
because the members bind themselves
by oath to do whatever is commanded
and decline TO divulge the purposes of
their society to the proper ecciesiastics."

of the floating debt by the issue of

street is firm in the belief that the
speculative value of Reading will be
greatly increased if the Vanderbilts are
found to be really interefted in tine
road.
The bear party in Chicago Gas was
treated to another turn of the thumb
screws this morning. The inside party
or pool is believed to have increased its
holdings during the recent raid against
the stock when il was depressed to IS,
and the shorts created in that movement
now find the stock very scarce.
The Post says: Only handful of
stocks were traded in today, and in
these the movement of prices was some
what irregular. In the industrials con-
certed bear movement was made with
out, however, any news to influence the
sales. From one point of view, and
from that most widely adopted in specu.
latlve Wall street. today's bank state
ment was very favorable. Specie and
legal tender holdings increased $780,
100, which is a gain much larger than
had been anticipated. But it may be
suggested at this time that the bank
statements most hopeful future sign
will be smaller weekly increase. Idle
money in bank means idle times in
trade. When interior trade begins to
revive on an extensive scale, then
New York banks surplue will
begin to shrink. This vas the
case in 1885 and in 1874. No
doubt, when such change becomes Wis
IDLE, the surface spectators will COM

PIERRE. S. d.. Nov. 1.-THE wife Of
Hon. P. f. Mcclure, of this CITY. is a
first cousin of Gov. Mckinley, of Ohio.
and their marriage a little over three
months ago was tinged with romance.
Last July Mr.. Mcclure surprised even
his most intimate friends by leaving the
city unexpectedly. This was on the
2lst, and three days later dispatch was
sent by him from Sioux City to reserve
rooms at the Locke hotel in Pierre for
himself and wife. The mystery was not
solved until two days later, when the
couple arrived. 1t then transpired that
the bride was Mrs. Elizabeth S. Bowen.
who had been residing for the past
seven years in Nice, France, and had
only come to this country few weeks
before to join her life to that of Pierre's
most popular citizen. She was born and
grew to Womanhood in Cincinnati, O.,
and after Der first marriage, which was
to gentleman of means, they travelled
through Europe, finally living in France
until his death. Mr.. Mcclure first met
her IN that country, where he travelled
for several years in the interest of BUSH
ness enterprises.
