New YoRK, Juno 1.-THE shipment
of currency to the west and south by
New York city banks was continued to-
day and excited much comment in
financial circles. Tho amount sent out
yesterday was estimated at moro than
81 100000 and another million was
ordered to-day.
When asked rs 10 the cause for this
largo shipment Of currency, which Is
mainly to the west, tho amount sent
out within the last ten days Ia believed
to exceed $l4,OOO000. Bankers agreed
in saying that the demand was largely

where in this country, mud especially in
tho west, whore there have beon a great
many failures both Of banks and OF
commercial houses.
The stringoncy OF the money market
is being experienced at both ends OF
the line now. The savings banks as
woll as other banks out west are all
iortifying themselvGs Gs much US posi-.
bic, and that, especially in tho case OF
tho country saving banks, is caus-
ing boarding Of money III those

WAsHINaToN, June 1.-THE treas
ury gold ia being built up by the de-
posit in New York Of gold certificates
in exchange for currency orders in the
west The demand for money in the
west still continues, and through this
exchange tho treasury receiving gold
at the same time it Is accommodating
the New York banks in placing cur
rency at western points.
The not gold in the treasury at the
close OF business was S02, 1885, an in
crease OF nearly Sl,OOO,0OO over the day
before and an increase OF moro than
100000 during the week.
Secretary Morton has an explanation
for the Improvement in the financial
situation. II was in Chicago" he said,
"during the run that was made on the
banks thore. stood in tho window OF
one OF tho largest commission houses
and watched the crowds anxious to
draw out their savings.
Zone OF the officers Of tho institution
called clerk and authorized him to
sell at once 100000 bushels OF wheat at
what price he could. The sale was
quickly made for shipment to Liverpool
at about 77tc.
ut would seem that we have reached
the price at which foreign markets will
purchase our wheat, and it Is now going
abroad. Instead, therefore, OF gold
shipments, there will be exchanges for
cereals, and tho financial problem will
be easier,"
II have no doubt that we shall be
able to repeal the Sherman law" said
Representative Wilson ofWest Virginia,
this morning. "But the question is as
to what condition or, compromise will
have to be acceded to FIRST.
II am rather expecting that We shall
have to also repeal tho 10 per cent tax
on state circulation. The southern
members, l believe, arc very anxious to
have this matter adjusted. They are
free silver men for the reason that they
believe 1t would provide m increased
volume of currency. II they can pro.
duce the same result by another means
they will be equally satisfied.

They would not be like the wild cat in
stitutions before the war. Their notes
would not be legal tender, and no one
would be compelled to accept them I'M
less they so desired, The volume Of
circulating medium throughout the
country, would, however, be largely In
creased"
Only one offer Of silver was accepted
by the treasury department to-day
The offers were $4,000 ounces, and the
amount purchased was 10000 ounces

VATICAN AFFAIRs.

The POpe's EnOyclical-Dr. NEcGlynn
Plensed with His Reception.
ROME, June 14-The newspaper or
gans of tho vatican are silent in regard
to the alleged encyclical on the school
question sent or to be sent to the Ameri-
lean bishops. The Corriere di Ndpoi
says that the publication of the text of
the encyclical has been delayed owing
to the fact that the vatican authorities
have received O notification that 1t will
be coldly received by majority OF the
clergy In the United States. MonaignOr
satolli, the papal ablogatc in the United
States, has, tho paper says, explained
to the pope the difficulties he IL meet
ing In America.
The Corricre di NapH adds that the
rebellion among the American clergy
has deeply impressed the Vatican Off
cials with tho necessity OF pursuing
Conciliatory policy. The pope will in
siruct Mgr. Satolli to confer with Car
dinul Gibbons for the purpose OF de-
vising some method OF elTectinG n COM
promise between the Two elements.
LONDON, June l4.-A correspondent
Mt Rome telegraphs that the latest alo-
cution OF his holeness 10 an energetic

lean circles pooh.pooh the uttprancos
Of the Coricrs Di MdpOH in regard to

aud other stories OF similar nature
which have been published from time

A correspondent in Rome telegrapha
this evening that his holiness has given
long audience to DR. McGlynn. 1t
was very cordial.

AMALaAMATED SCALE,
The Work Finished = Tho Important
Changes Made Conference Monday,

The Work Finished = The Important
Changes Made Conference Monday,
PITTsBURGH, PAo June l4,-At to-day's
sessions OF the Amalgamated conven-
tion, the consideration Of the
work Of the iron scale committee
was finally completed, The commit
tee on the presidents and vice
presidents report read tho report, as
did also the committees on the secre-
tRry and trustees report, on the consti,
tuition, the commiIte on ways and
means reporting Of adjournment
The names of the members OF the
general conference committee will be
announced Tomorrow and the conven'
tion will determine as to the power to
be given them. The impression is that
tho committee will be given discretion
ary powers up to q certain point, dis
putes arising beyond their Jurisdiction
going to the sub lodges for vote. The
convention will adjourn on Saturday
and the conference will likely begin on
Monday.
Tho only changes in the iron scale are
as follows: Clause Ave in the memoran-
dun OF the agreement, which in the
current scale roads, "Qhat mills may
work three turns in "a hours when
practicable" has added to 1t "except
boiling department" This addition
was made to remove obscurity from the
clause as it read last year. 1t will be
remembered that the management of
tho oil we'll supply company held that
under the clause the puddlers should
work three turns, the men objecting on
tho score OF impractlcability and a
lockout following.
"The addition "and paid by the COM
pany" is made to clauses two and three
in the addition. which now reads:
"Roughing down on bar, structural
and l2.inch mills shall be paid not less
than thirty per cento rollers wages, to
be deducted from rollers wages. Rough
ing.up on bar, structural and l2-inch
mills shall not be less than forty per
cent OF the price paid for catching on
such mills, to be deducted from
catchers' wages.
The intention in adding "and paid by
the company" is to place the firm in
the position OF direct employer of the
roughers in these mills instead OF the
roller, who at present hires his own
crew, paying th EN- as set forth in the
scale. The object Of this change Is
said to be for the purpose OF handicap
ping the new tinishers' union by render
ing the rouGhers independent OF the
roller.
The new union contemplates tho nd
mission of rollers, heaters, roughers and
catchers only, and it is clear that ii
these trades were to organize in any
considerable number within the new
union they would control the finishing
departments in the mills. 1t is sup
posed that where tho roller goes the
rougher will follow, as tho roller is his
boss. The additional phrase in the
clause alters this.

not much has been done. The principal

The place is now vacant, and an cleo

cases will probably be taken tomorrow.
After DR.. Turner's annual report had
been considered he was asked to prefer
charges against any whom he consid-
cred subject to to such course OF pro-
ceedure. These he will prepare to-
night, and they will be submitted to-
morrow. Investigation in these cases
will take some time, and no definite
action can be taken till this is done,
but that some changes will result from
these things is evident,
The public is interested concerning

Mr.. Moody said that the common

some time during August 8, tho day be-
fore the murder, Lizzie Borden went to
a drug store and tried TO purchase ten
cents worth Of prussic acid, She said
che wanted 1t in order to clean seal

purpose, said Mr.. Moody. "Mrs, Bor-
den had seen DIR. Bowen and told him
that she was afraid Of being poisoned.
Lizzie Borden was in murderous mood
at the time"
The assistant district attorney quoted
from a number Of authorities to main.
tain his position,
When Mr., Moody finished his argu-
ment Ex-Governor Robinson began,
He contended that as TO anything pre-
vious to August there was nothing in
the testimony except that given by
Mrs. Clifford.
"Was che then in u murderous
moodW Mr., Robinson asked. "There
has been nothing shown here as to
that which rises to the dignity OF proof,
Tho buying OF the prusslc acid ls an in
nocent act. There is nothing to show
the least tendency OF malice toward Mr.,
and Mrs. Borden. It might have been

cent"
The court then retired for a consulta-
tion on the points raised
After being out 35 minutas the court
returned. Chief Justice Mason said !:
"The court desires to have restated the

Chief Justice Mason then said the
