WASHINGTON, Feb. %. The question
Of issuing bonds to keep intact the gold
reserve in the treasury was discussed by
the president and his cabinet during the
morning. Secretary Foster, Of the
treasury department, it Is understood,
brought the subject mp. He represented
that the gold in the treasury was
$lO7, ,228, ,466, leaving 81. .22S, ,366 free gold.
From this was TO be distracted the
$4,000, 900 gold taken from the sub
treasury in New York for export. 1t is
stated that the presidents position
that no additional bonds should be is

tary Tracy, it is believed. rather sided
with Secretary of Treasury Foster in
the matter of taking some steps toward

Of bonds The result of the conference
is stoted on good authority to have been

YOUNGSTOWN, o., Feb. 2s.-The

of the investigation into the affairs Of
Robert L. Walker, showing that the
amount of paper on which Governor
Mckinley is endorser, is fully 800. 900
and may reach $4,000. Experts say
that the total liabilities OF the governor
will not exceed the latter figure. The
statement startles the friends of the
governor, as it was not believed at any

Arrangements are being made to
promptly pay all the Mckinley paper.

M'KINLEY,s FINANCES.

Both His Own and His wife's Prop
erty Not Sufficient to Pay UP.
CHICAGO. Feb. 22.-H. III. Kohlsaat,
proprietor and publisher OF the Chicago
Inter- Ocean, who has been appointed
one of Governor McKinley's trustees,
considers that the governor is the VIC
tim of most aggravated treachery.
HE never knew" says Mr.. Kohlsaat.
ito what extent he was becoming in
volved because he trusted implicitly in
the Judgment of his friend. The ex-
posure of his falsity completely un-
nerved the victim, and while political
reverses were accepted as part of polit-
ical life he Is almost unable to endure
the present crash. But. honest man
that he is and always has been, he sadly
told me he would begin again, and no
man should lose cent who lent him
money by reason of his name. \
1T is probable Myron T. Merrick,
treasurer of the Society of Savings, Of
Cleveland, will act with me as trustee.
AT present it is not possible to say
how the financial end of the calamity
will be settled. The governor will turn
over every penny he has, but this viii
only be drop compared with the aggre-
gate liabilities. He said his wife was
thoroughly decided to help out with her
own means. which / think will amount
to about $4,000 il sold at auction. The
possessions consist of farm land near
Canton and some other unimproved
property. However, all of it viii not
cover the debts, since when left Mr..
Mckinley we figured at least 500, ,00C
liabilities and they are increasing al
most hourly.
wifi Retire from Politics.
1.-THE governor viii retire from poll
tics, since he cannot hold Office and
again get up financially. He said he
would commence his law practice again
and make it his object in life to pay all
that he had been dragged into owin".
His affairs are complete wreck, the
failure taking the modest home and its
contents. The friends of Mrs. Mckinley
declare she must not put her fortune at
the mercy of creditors. Just what will
be done on her part is net decided yet.
She is positive one way; her friends are
equally decided the other. A dispatch
received says Mrs. Mckinley is with her
husband in Cleveland, and the parties
are in conference as to final actor"
"Will the governor resignY'
"Well, tits hardly possible to see what
else he can do. It will be quite neces-
sary, since he proposes to settle dollar
for dollar. and there is no money in be.
ing governor of any state. Heonce had
a good practice and his brilliant repu.
tation will add to it."
