COMPTROLLER Eckers Answer.

BUFFALO, n. Y, Aug. 1.-THE
Comptroller of Currency, Eckels, in
answer to an inquiry from Vice
President Baird, of the Buffalo
Furnace company, asking if it was
against the law to issue checks
certified to by national banks, to
be used the same as currency, in
making up the pay-rolls, has
decided, thatlas checks were issued
by depositors and not by banks
and involved business contracts
between depositors and their credi-
tors,it did not constitute a violation
of section 51S2, as to certificates of
such checks, by national banks,
when drawn against deposits to
the credit of, or order, L
can find no legal objection. The
reply is received with the greatest
satisfaction by the Buffalo bankers
and the method Of using the certi-
fed checks in S. and $40 amounts,
and currency in sums less than So
is expected to furnish immediate
relief. In an interview, Mr..
Baird said: at will enable the
manufacturers to find currency
to meet the pay.rolls, and will
keep thousands of men in employ
ment, who would otherwise be dis
charged. The scheme is to use GER
titled checks of the above denom-
nations, made payable to bearer.
A large number of the biggest
manufacturers in the country have
been interested in the decision,
which is given out by the comp
trOller.

COL. FANNIN's DAUGHTER.
The Texan Hero, 80 Years in
Insane Asylum-Buried in
Pauper's Grave.
AUSTIN, Texas, Aug. II, '93

AUSTIN, Texas, Aug. II, '93
Special Correspondence to the LIGHT
For thirty-two years Miss Min
erva Fannin, daughter of Col.
Frnnin, the Texas patriot, has
been an inmate of the State Luna
tic Asylum inNthis city. She died a
week ago and was buried by a sub
scription list, made up by a few
patriotic citizens Of Austin. 1t now
comes to light that something
has happened. Somebody has
walked off with the fortune that
was left her. Her fortune consist
ed of a city lot in Galveston, 145O
acres of land in Karnes county,
1850 acres in Nueces county,
and $40 acres in Live Oak coun-
ty. In 1873 the legislature
appointed a Galveston man to
manage her estate and later an
Austin man was appointed to the
position. The managers were
supposed to control her estate and
pay the state certain sum each
year for her maintenance in the
asylum. A few years ago j. p.
Dorie, of Galveston, paid the state
$1,000 on her account, but out
side of that nothing has ever been
seen or heard of Miss Fannin's
estate. There are still some
$3.50 due on back accounts,
which somebody ought to settle, as
the state is sadly in need of money.
To the man up the tree it looks
very much as though somebody
had Soaked" a fortune, as the city
property and lands are all reported
as very valuable. 1t is thought
here that a thorough investigation
into the matter is inevitable, as
Gen. Hardeman proposes to sift
the matter, and if there is,
or has been, fraud perpetrated,
he intends to make the guilty
suffer. In the mean time the
daughter of one of the grandest
men in Texas history is buried in
a $500 pine coffin in pauper's
grave. No tear is shed, no slab
raised to call the attention of the
drifting multitude of the future
that here lies a heroic child.

HOUSE PROCEEDINGS.
Then to be Taken-"Mu-
sic" Begun.

WASHINGTON, ID. c., Aug. H.
House Special. - Representative
Bland offered the agreement made
this morning, governing the course
of debate. 1t limits debate to IA
days, the sessions continuing from
i a. m. to p. M. and with night
sessions for debate, only if de-
sired; a vote first to be taken
on the bill to be presented as a
substitute for the Wilson bill, pro-
viding for free coinage at a ratio
of Is to |. If that fails then ratios
running from II to 20 to |. If they
fail, then on revival of the Bland
Allison act of 1878, and then
on the original measure. The
substitute bill of the free
coinage caucus was called for
and presented by Mr.. Bland Mr..
Bland demanded the previous
question on his order, but this was
antagonized by Republicans, under
the leadership of Mr.. Cannon, who
wanted time to debate the ques-
ton. Under the ruling of
the speaker in the absence
of the rules or agreement,
ordering the previous question, cut
ting off debate by operation of vot-
ing by tellers, Cannon secured sutfi-
cient support to secure the vote by
yeas and nays, and at 1885 the
calling Of the roll began. The vote
raSultad yeas 217. naVS 100
So the previous question was
ordered. The Republicans gen
orally voted with the Demo-
Gratis in support of the motion. The
resolution was then adopted. Five
minutes after one o'clock
Mr.. Raynor, of Maryland, began
debate in support of the Wilson
bill for the unconditional repeal Of
the silver purchase clause.

Going Back to Buzzard's Bay.

NEW YORK, Aug. 1.-THE Wash
ington correspondent of the Herald
last night telegraphed his paper as
follows: "a wild report is be-
ing circulated in Washington
tonight, to the effect that
President Cleveland will leave the
city tomorrow and go the Buz-
Yards bay, because he feels that he
can be beaten in his effort to
secure a repeal of purchase, the
clause of he Sherman act. The
silver men are radient with joy
and declare that the President has
abandoned his post and surrender
ed leadership, which he assumed
in his message. The simple truth
is that domestic event in Mr..
Cleveland's family will require
him to be at the side
of his wife. within seven
days, and it is scarcely decent
politics to drag such delicate mat
tiers into a rough and tumble pol
itical fight. The president stands
by his message, and expects to win
his struggle, and to give the COun-
try relief, and save it from the
general impending ruin. Nothing
could induce him to leave Wash
ington, at such a supreme crisis,
but an event tauching his tender
est and most sacred personal res
pOnSibilitieS.

UNITED STATES LEAD.

The New York Sun, in speaking Of the
comparative speed of English and Amer
lean railways, says:
There is still much miscouccption
current regarding the speed of the ex-
press service on English railroads. It Is
known, indeed, on both sides of the
Atlantic. that on one Of our American
lines, the New York Central. much
greater speed has been attained and pro
longed for considerable distance than
has ever been reached elsewhere. There
Is, nevertheless, an impression that. ow-
ing 10 an assumed superiority In respect
of solid road-beds and easy gradients,
English express trains are usually able
10 maintain a rate Of speed for many
hundreds of miles, which Is impmcticable
in the United States IL is even supposed
that sixty miles an hour Is common
average rate Of speed for nm English
express train In England. These notions
are by no means borne out by the facts.
Carefully authei ticaied Statements Of
the time made by the fastest trains on
the principal English r.iilruads show at
once that there IL no foundation fur tue
belief that any express trains generally
exhibit q speed Of sixty miles an hour.

ever OF one line, the Great Northern,
that the tnbles Of the time actually
made display greater number Of runs

The practical result Of the speed getcr-
ally attained by the express trains on
