Look OUT FOR A SIG PANIC.

A British BimetslIist Makes Dire Pre-
dictfons.
WASHINGTON. Nov. la published in
terview with Moreton Frewen, the Eng
lish bimetallist, quotes him as saying:
IF the price Of silver bullion falls, as
expect will be the case, it will drag
down exchange rates with the far east,
which are already at the swapping point,
and we shall have panic in London
before New Year; panic you will feel
in every corner of this continent"
Then you don't favor the view that
the repeal OF the act will bring buying
orders from london to Wall street ?''
London will sbe seller for long
time to come. We are in great trouble
in Australia and in India; and our ex-
port trade with China, Singapore and
South America is already paralyzed by
the fall in rates of silver exchange.
London has been praying that you will
etop your silver purchase thinking that
then your stock market may recover go
that che may send you home your se-
curities realized at higher prices. We
are in no position to buy. The great
English manufacturing fortunes have
suffered terribly. When we in
England have financial troubles, times
are bad and prices are depressed, 90
that your exports to England fall off
and your imports remaining the same,
gold leaves you. To borrow gold
in Englands and bring it here
inevitably turns the balance OF
trade against this country, 1t would
turn it in the face even of great har-
vest, go that the gold begins to flow
back again on the nearest ship. Austria
is trying to get gold and hold it in this
way. Weckherle. her finance min
lister. is an intelligent man, but
he knows nothing whatever about
the theory OF foreign exchanges.
Goschen told him three years since that
while Austria could borrow gold she
could never keep it except under
lock and key, and it is still all
under lock and key; but gold is
already at premium in the dual mon
archy; unlock the treasury doors and it
will disappear at once and you here will
discover also that with wages and prices
in England falling by leaps and bounds,
to try to bring British gold here is
merely to pour water in sieve."

By the Associated Press.
CAPE Town, Nov. Cecil Rhodes,
premier of Cape Colony, telegraphs
from Fort Charter that native runners
say the Matabeles are utterly defeated
and that King Lobenguls has fed. The
British columns effected juncture at
Buluwayo and both columns are now
pursuing the fugitive king and his fol-
lowers. Major Forbes had des-
perate fight with Lobengula's crack
Inbizo regiment and half of the latter
were destroyed. The blacks fought
with great bravery, but the machine
guns and unerring rifles of the whites
were too much for them. The destruc-
ton was such that they never got within
spear distance of the white columns and
finally broke in utter rout. The
loss to the chartered company forces
Was slight and mainly confined
to Major Forbes column. The Mata-
beles' loss is reported to exceed 5000
killed and wounded. All the Mashona
land reports confirm these stories and
agree that the Matabele power is utterly
broken. One of the ENJOYS killed by
the Bechuanaland police was relative
of powerful king of one of the native
states, who has consequently withdrawn
into the interior and ID preparing to en-
gage in vigorous hostilities against the
Briteh chartered company.

BACKD0WN OF THE INDIAN COUNCIL

ton respecting silver purchases, de-
bate on the silver bill was resumed,
Mccall. Republican, OF Massachusetts
speaking for the bill.
Mccall was followed by Coombs of
New York, who spoke for the repeal
of the purchase clause.
Bryan, Democrat, followed Coombs,
and attacked the presidents message
in vigorous terms. The recommenda-
ton of the president meant the burial
Of silver, with no promise OF its res
direction. They were arguments for
single gold standard, and they led
to gold monometallism over whose
door was written "Abandonshope, all

thorizing the secretary Of the treas
ury to redeem at par and accrued in
terest such Of the two per cent bonds
as may be presented for redemption,
and TO pay for them in new legal
tender notes.
The proposition appeared to Sher-
man as unwise and unbusinesslike.

Cockrell ridiculed the idea of letting
the national banks increase circula-
ton while proposition to increase
the greenback circulation was opposed

Receiver Appointed.

New YORK, Aug. l6.-Little news
is obtainable about the affairs Of the
Northern Pacific railroad company.
At IL O'Clock lawyers for receivers
and for the com pany were in consul
tation at the Office of the latter. APP
plications for the appointment of a re-
ceiver, it is learned, has been granted
in St. Paul, Portland, Helena, Olym-
pia, Milwaukee and New York.
One authority said that while it
was true that the falling off in the re-
ceipt of the road was indirectly the
cause Of the receiversllip, yet the i'm
mediate cause was a drop of five per
cent in the quoted price of the COM
pany's consols, and its inability to re-
spond to a call for more margins on
one Of its loans. which was not due
until September l.
The failure, however, to put up the
required margin made the loan at
once payable. There were two OF
these loans, one owing to Speyer &
Co., which has been adjusted, and the
other, which exceeded two millions,
owing to Kuhn, Loeb &. Co. They
called that loan before the appoint
ment Of receivers. They could sell
collateral held for loan for about $10,-
100000, the par value. but ii they did
it would cause a tremendous break
in the price of them. At the Office of
Kuhn, Loeb & CO., it was said by
member of the firm that $2,000,000
Northern Pacific loan, which had not
been included in the subscription,
had been arranged, but he declined
to give the reporter any particulars or
state who held the collateral or
whether they would be put on the
market.

A Back Down.

New YORK, Aug. l6.-London ca
bles received in Wall street this
afternoon report that the Indian
council had receded from the position
it took when it closed the Indian
mints to the free coinage of silver,
and were selling council bills below
the arbitrary rate fixed of 154d. Ad-
vices were meager and did not state
whether the mints had been reopened.
In the absense of definite news it was
supposed the council had been unable
to maintain the rate of exchange on
India at the price fixed. Few persons
understood what further changes
might be expected or why reduction
had been ordered. 1t was the origi-
nal action of this council in fixing
the rupee price and closing the mints
that sent silver from 81 to 81 cents
Il ounce.
