Carlisle Proposed to Issue $4,000, 600
Of Sh, rt Time Gold
Bonds.
They Were Not Acceptable to New York
Bankers, Who Made Counter
Proposals.
These, However, Were Not Acceptable
to Carlisle, aud We're Rejected
by Him.

NEW YORK, April 20. The Tribune
says that at the conferences held here
between Assistant Treasurer Jordan
and a number of leading New York
bankers, the former presented a propo-
sition in writing from Secretary Car
Isle for a gold loan of $50. 900, OOO. The
governments scheme is in the nature of
q collateral 8 per cent loan, that is, it
offers to issue a form Of bond running
for 10 years. but redeemable at the op.
ton of the government within one
year, paying 3 per cent interest, am
redeemable in gold.
This sort Of bond. of course, would
not be saleable, or indeed in any way
serviceable to the banks as a form of
investment. 1t would be nothing bet
ter than a security for the money ad-
vanced.
Not satisfactory t. Bankers.
In this form the governments offer
was not az eptable to the bankers.
They were practically agreed in requir-
ing that the loan should be made on a
bond which could be put on b emarket,
and they recommended that at least half
the sum demanded. or $25. 600, 600. be
obtained from Europe. thus recovering
some of the gold that has been SO freely
shipped out during the last few weeks.
AT the conferences between Mr.. Jordan
and the bankers many suggestions were
made, many notifications of the presi-
dents plan proposed, and most Of the
reduced 10 writing. These will b. act /
on at a future meeting of the financiers,
the date of which has not been made
public.

IN HONOR OF COLUMBUS.
The Bronze Statue at the Worlds
Fair Grounds Unveiled.

The Bronze Statue at the worlds
Fair Grounds Unveiled.
CHICAGO. April 26. The bronze mon
ument to Christopher Columbus erected
by the Worlds Columbian exposition on
the lake front at the foot of Congress
street, was unveiled at 8 o'clock p. m.
with appropriate ceremonies. The idea
of erecting this monument emanated
from a sentiment that there should be a
Suitable and Lasting Memorial
of the exposition which would stand
after the worlds fair buildings shall
have been torn down. The movement
was given impetus at a meeting of the
board of directors he'd Nov. ~, 1891, at
which a resolution appointing a
committee to secure the necessary
ordinance and assistance to the cost of
work. was passed. Designs were sub
mitted to the committee by famous
sculptors, and the work finally awarded
to Howard Kretchmar of Chicago.
Description OF the Monument.
The height of the statue is 20 feet.
Its pedestal, of Maine granite. is 80 feet,
making a total altitude of 30 feet. The
figure has had the approval of many
artists and critics, and is said to be the
largest bronze statue in the United
States. The monument cost $40, 900
and viii revert to the City of Chicago
at the close of the fair.
1t was unveiled by the little daughter
of Ferd w. Peck. Mayor Harrison and
others spoke.

They Have Steadily Decreased For
the Past Sixteen Years. Z
MrSNEAPoLIs, April sB.-During the
years 1891 and 1892 the three principal
wheat raising states of the Northwest
Minnesota, North and South Dakota
raised. according to the government re-
port, 24D, 121, 00J bushels of wheat, says
the Minneapolis Market Record. Over
half OF this amount was sold on the
Minneapolis market. About one-third
OF that was shipped ont and the balance
was taken by the Minneapolis mills to
grind into -four. The receipts no far
this4year are running nearly as large as
they did last year, when Minneapolis
alone handled over 10, 900. 0o0 bushels.
During the inc cropyears ending Aug.
! last, the total receipts here We're
375, 800, 5l0 bushels. The shipments
during the same time We're 101. 474. TIA
bushels. This left 274, 321, 1898 bushels
of wheat which were made into -four
here and sent to all parts of the world.
The yearly -four output increased from
$40, 7s6 barrels in 1878 to the enormous
amount of Q, 750, 470 barrels in 1892.
Prices Have Gone Down.
With the increase in the make prices
haye gone down so that the profits
are hardly one-half what they
were then. In the year 1877 the
average price on patents was $3.50 per
barrel. Now they sell at So. rs. Wheat
Tas higher then, but not correspond
ingly as much 80 as -four. The best
milling wheat at that time sold on an
average during the year at 81. 80. Now
it sells at 66 cents. 1t will be seen that
the decline in the price of -four since
1877 has been 1856 per barrel, while
the decline in wheat was 70 cents.
Figuring on a~basis of 4 bushels Il
wheat in a barrel of -four, the millers
are making just 20. 30 1-2 less on a bar
rel now than they did six years ago.
