REDEMPTION OF NOTES.

Secretary Carlisle Replies to the Senate
Requcst-Why Silver Was Not Exchanged
For Gold Coin.
( WASHINGTON, D. G., August 1s.-sec-
rotary Carlisle sent to the senate to-day
the following communication in reply
to resolution passed by the senate on
Wednesday, requesting certain intor-
nation as to the redemption Of treasury
notes, undor the Sherman act.
"Iu reponse thereto l have the honor
to say that during the present month,
treasury notes issued during the act Of
July II, 1890, amounting to S7l46S0,
have been redeemed by the govern
ment in silver dollars. While do not
pretend to have knowledge of the de-
gree OF information possessed by hold
ors Of the notes so redeemed, lam OF tho
opinion that they were fully advised
al the timo Of such redemption that
they could have gold instead OF silver II
they so desired. l base this opinion
upon the general publicity which has
been given to the terms OF the act, no
less than upon the instructions OF this
department to the treasurer and assis-
tant treasurers OF the United States to
the effect that such notes were redeem.
able in silver dollars ut tho option OF
the holders.
an further response to the resolu.
ton, I have to say that recently gold
coin has been presented at n Office OF
this department and silver dollars
asked In exchange therefor, and that
the exchange was not made for the
reason that all tho silver dollars in the
treasury at the time were required un.
dor the provisions OF tho laws relating
to tho currency to be held in the
treasury notes issued under act OF July
II, 1890 At present the department
would not and could not exchange ail-
yor dollars for gold coin II requested to
do SO BY holders OF gold, for tho same
reason, but il the condition OF the treas.
ury were such as to afford margin Of
silver dollars in excess of silvor cortil'
Gates and treasury notes outstanding

COMFY ISLAND ATHLETIC CLUB, Aug.
ust lS.-Fewer people were present to.
night in the club house to see the
pugilistic bout than has been the case
at any previous occasion since the club
opened.
Tho bout OF tho evening, between
John CattenRch, OF Providence, and
Steve O'Donnell, OF Australia, waa
twenty rounds or more for purse OF
$500, OF which tho loser end was
$500. This contest was refereed by
John Eckhardt the clubs official ref
cree.
Cattanach landed good left on the
mouth and the men closed in to stiff
work and for twenty seconds or more
there was the hardest kind OF might
ing. Both men did some very effective
work. Tho fight was this way until the
fourth round.
Round 4-Both men came upsmiling.
o'Donnell led and landed lightly with
his left. Cattanach led for the wind
and missed. The men fought all around
the ring, 0'Donnell landing when ho
pleased and forced his man. Both were
now very weak from their exertions,
but 0'Donnell sent Cattanach down
several times and kept pounding
his man all over the ring, while the
blood flowed in streams down Catta'
nach's breast. Cattanach was beaten
and 1t was pitiful sight to SEQ him
staggering about under tho tremendous
punishment he was receiving.
Referee Eckhardt attempted to stop
it out OF humanity, but just as he
pulled 0'Donnell away Cattanach broke
past him and landed several blows.
O'Donnell then went at him like an in
furiated bull and landed many vicious
blows. 1t was only the gong that saved
Cattanach from being knocked out.
Cattanach was carried to his corner
and the battle brought to close by
Jimmy Carroll throwing up the sponge.
Cattanach is much worse used up
man than was thought at the time he
was taken out Of the ring. 1t was
found necessary TO call aphysician to do
considerable lancing and fixing up
about his mouth and nose, which were
in frightfuIly battered state. A deep
cash was cut over his left eye, and q
lump as big rs goose egg raised on his
cheek. He was ono OF the worst used
up men they have had after q fight at

WoRLD's FAIR GROUNDS, August 49,
Paid attendance yesterday, 1904 The
White City was gay with uniforms,
martial music aud handsomely dressed
women to-day. Two hundred and
eiglAy West Point cadets were the
chiet attraction. They arrived in the
forenoon and arrangements had been
made TO give them q send.off. They
were met by a military escort Of militia
and they were greeted by cheers, um-
hrellas and lace handkerchiefs. Their
fine marching. their stylishly cut uni
forms and highly polished buttons
elected words Of admiration along the
line. The cadets will remain here ten
days.
illinois Day, August "a, will be at

Austrian Day was celebrated by the
various Austrian societies and many

One OF the principal attractions at
the Worlds Fair next week will be the
parade of the favorite horses Of Emper-
or Wilhelm OF Germany and those Of

will be led through theprincipal streets
Of the White City by liveried grooms.
Numerous complaints have been

Rivington street. This afternoon the

men that il they wanted bread to go
and got 1t, meaning that they should
loot baker shops, or whatever they
thought necessary.
Acommittee was appointed to arrange
for monster parade OF the workingmen
throughout the work quartera OF the
city. Another committee was also APP

Meetings were held in two halls, one on

this evening.
The hungry men kept three bar.
tenders busy in Golden Rule hall, and
the bartender in the other hall had oil

uted speeches to them in the Allen
street hall. Ono wild looking man
spoke in part as follows at the Allen
street hall:
"Remember Chicago. whore they
hanged men. WhyP Because they
wero hungry. Yesterday the dirty
police arrested mon. Whyp Because
they were hungry. But be calm.
"If you are not, and attempt to got
what you want, the police will come
here and turn the hose on you, they
say"
A shudder went through the hall.
"Let ps parade up Fifth avenue and
show those rich people how hungry we
are. They have money for their luxu.
ries, my wife and your wife have had
no breakfast for three days"
The bartender outside meantime
raked in the nickels.
"Do not fly the next time," ex-
claimed IN excited Pole. "but when
the dirty police como at you tho next
time resist them with all your might;
standIfirm and meet them; and do not

Senator Allen. OF Nebraska, the new
Populist senator, made his debut as q
speaker and made good impression;
The bill for the increase OF national
bank circulation was taken up, and Mr.
Allen advocated the adoption OF the
amendment offered by him last Wednes.
dny--to suspend interest on the bonds
on which the increased circulation is
based. In his judgment the bill would
commit the country to the policy Of
continuance of the national banking
system and he believed that tho time
had come when safety required the
overthrow Of that system and the
wlping out OF existence as speedily as
possible.
Mr.. Mcpherson, member OF the
finance committee, argued against the
Allen amendment as calculated to do
feat the whole measure.
Mr., Manderaon opposed his coll
league's amendment and favored the
immediate passage OF the bill.
Mr., Pugh saw no reason why the gov
ernment should not resume its proper
constitutional power and issue all the
currency which the people needed in
Mr.. Henderson said that when the
time came to act on that question, he
would probably bo found voting with
the senator from Alabama. He only
hoped that the senator from Alabama
would not be found at that time favor
ing the issue OF circulation by state
banks.
Mr., Pugh admitted that the removal
OF an unconstitutional tax on tho notes
Of state banks was plank in his party's
platform,
Mr. Wolcott inquired what authority
there was in law for the issue Of clearing
house certificates in New York to the
amount of SS7,0O0,0O0.
Mr. MCPHERSON explained that the
clearing house certificate were not used
as urrency,but only to pay balances be-
tween themselves.
The discussion OF the bank bill was
then resumed, and Mr.. Peffer made a
speech against the national bank sys'
tenn.
After further discussion the vote was
taken on Mr.. Aliens amendment and 1t
was rejected, ayes II, nays 80.
The next question was on the amend-
ment offered by Mr.. Cockrell, for the re.
denption at their face value aud accru.
cd interest OF such two per cent bonds
as may be presented for redemption
aud to issue greeubacks to pay for them.
The amendment was opposed by Mr..
MCPHERSON and by Mr.. Sherman. The
latter characterized it (us he had done
the other day. as an unbusiness.like
transaction. Tho government OF the
United States could not now increase
the demand liabilities.
After some discussion the senate I'D.

of peace. On tie left shoulder of each
is perched cooling white winged dove,

Cleveland first called his Cabinet. the

the growing has been done, and contin
