The Wheeling daily intelligencer. [volume] (Wheeling, W. Va.) 1865-1903, 1893-06-07

WASHINGTON, D. O., June G,-The
Sar says; president Cleveland's
statement as to the time when he pro-
poges to call Congress together, and the
reasons which will lead him to do so,
ia clearly iuterpretable as indicating u
determination on his part to continue
the use oil the gold reserve to the ex-
tout necessary, and not to issue bonds.
AS indicated yesterday, he desires that
tho full gravity OF the situation should
be apparent at the time OF tho meeting
OF Congress, so that the legislative
branch of the government shall have
the duty pressing upon them to correct
the laws affecting the finances. 1t is
claimed for tho administration that
there is no obligation to issue bonds ut
once to make up the deficiency in tho
gold reserve, and that the reserve may
be used in the regular course OF busl-
ness. 1t ia said that should It run as
low as twenty-five or thirty millions be-
fore any financial legislation Is had
there will be no issue Of bonds until
expressly authorized by Congress at n
lower interest than can be issued under
the present law.
Tie President desires Congress to be
confronted when it meets with the
practical caldemonstration Of the depicting
effect OF the silver purchases upon the
gold in tho treasury. Unless the situa'
lion should grow very much worse, re-
sulting in u general panic, the Prosi-
dent does not desire any radical steps
to be- taken until Congress meets in
September, but ii developments should
require prompter action, then Congress
would bo called together sooner The
long list Of financial failures appearing
in the morning dispatches, it Is be-
lieyed, has not affected the Presidents
Judgment as to the policy to be pur'
guod,

tending to show that Ill feeling had ex'
listed for years between the prisoner
and her stepmother,
From the middle until the end OF the

back in her chair and never moved u
muscle. She put the fan up to her face,
and holding her head forward pressed
it close against her forehead aud held 1t
there. Just Us Mr.. Moody had ceased
to speak and taken one step towards
his scat, there was u noise where Miss
Borden was sitting. She had tainted.
The Rev. Mr. Jubb hurried over to her
aud placed q bottle OF smelling salts to
her nostrils. Deputy Sheriff Kirby and
another officer hurried after cracked
ice. The womans face grew white.
The officers returned with Ice in mo-
ment, and n couple OF minutes later
Miss Borden began to recover.
The case was opened by the govern
meut putting ON its first witness in the
person of Thomas Kiernan, civil engi-
.neer. He minutely described the Bor-
den house and Its surroundings Court
was then adjourned until tomorrow in
order that tho jury might visit the
