Affairs Of a GAINESVILLE Firm Being In

Chicago, Sept. 27.-Tha methods Of
the Columbia Improvement company,
Of GAINESVILLE, Wis, are being looked
into by people who have invested in
the company's property. The company
tranSactS business at 163 East Ran

ownership to 1000 acres of land in
Clark county, Wis, and at present s
selling lots in it's townsite called Co.

The purchasers are mostly working
men, who, after saving a few dollars,
look for an investment for their linn
tied capital. The company claims that
the Chicago & Northwestern road is
interested in the townsite, but the Off
GERS Of the road deny any connection
with the scheme. On payment of So
a deed and abstract are given to the
purchaser. Each purchaser also re-
eeives a ticket that entities him to
draw a 16O-acre farm.
The deeds are signed by George G..

BONDS AND PREMIUMS.
Secretary Carlisle Replies to a Reso-
luton Of the Senate

Washington, D. c., Sept 2S.- The
Tor information came in response to
a resolution Of the 10Th inst. directing
the secretary of the treasury to &C
quaint the senate when and in what
amounts government bonds have been
purchased since 1879, the rate and
the aggregate amount Of premium paid
ON such purchases; whether any such
purchases have been made without the
notice required by law, and what
amount of public moneys by years
has been deposited in national banks
since 1879 and what interest these
institutions paid for the use of the
money. The treasury statement shows
that
During the fourteen years covered
by the inquiry bonds have been pllr-
chased only during six years, 1880, 1881,
and 1888 to 1891 inclusive, the total
aegregating $446, 459, $50, and the net
premium on the same being $50, 49,
211.9S. No bonds were purchased
from 1882 to 1887, inclusive During
that period there were outstanding
bonds which had become redeemable
1T the pleasure of the government, and
the surplus revenues were applied to
their redemption at par. There have
been no purchases since 1891.
In regard to the implied violation of
law the secretary says there is no law
requiring the department to give pub
lie notice Of the purchase by the gov
eminent Of its bonds, but that there
have been no such purchases since
1879 except in pursuance Of public no
tice. The amount Of public money
held by national bank repositories is
found to range from a little more than
81 100000 in 1879 to the high water
mark Of almost $55,OOO,OOO in 1888,
from which point it declined to lit
tie more than S12,OOO,OOO for the last
fiscal year. No interest has been paid
for the use of this money

Milwaukee, Sept. pa New York
dispatch says that Mr. Cromwell, cOun-
sci for Northern Pacific receivers, says
that inasmuch as the lease Of the Wis
consin Central has been Cancelled, the
receivers will not pay interest on Chi
cago and Northern Pacific bonds due
Oct. ].
Frederick Abbot when seen this af-
ternoon had nothing to say on the mat
ter Counsel for the Central, however,
stated that the action of the receivers
did not affect them in the least.
They could not see how the refusal
Of the receivers to pay the bond inter
est threw any responsibility upon them
and they did not in the least feel CON
cerned.
This is likely to bring an interesting
fight between the Northern Pacific and
the Wisconsin Central According to
Mr. Abbot the Central does not want
the Chicago terminal company and
1t does not intend to burden Itself
with it.
AS the Northern Pacific receivers do
not want the Chicago and Northern
Pacific fight in the courts between
the two roads to avoid responsibility
for the Chicago terminal lease is in
evitable.
There has been some speculation as
to the form this fight would take,
but none of the officers have made any
statement. 1t is probable, however,
that the Central will make move i'll
the matter before long
Arguments were resumed in federal
court today in the matter Of the rent
ais due the Wisconsin Central by the
Northern Pacific.

Washington, Sept. 29-When shown
Il cs,blegram from Vienna regarding the
anarchist plots there, a we'll known
Chicago official now in the city said 1t
was well known to the Chicago secret
service police that anarchists in Vienna,
Paris and London were in constant
communication with those of Chicago
and New York
lie declared that plot similar to that
in Vienna was unearthed In Chicago by
the police Il year and Il half ago, but
nothing was said about it for fear of
creating Il scare and injuring the
worlds fair The reds arranged to
blow up the city hall and several build
lnSs in course of construction ut the
worlds fair grounds. The superintcnd-
ent of police, McClaughry, by vigorous
action nipped it in the bud.
detectives attended number of an
archlst meetings on ClybourEe avenue
and West Lake streets. Later a wo-
man fanatic volunteered to eater the
council chamber when the city council
was i'll session and explode n bomb
among them. She said she was will
ing to sacrifice her own life for the
good of the cause
AT the Clybourne avenue meeting ar
engagements were being made to blow
up the worlds fair buildings. Superin-
tcndent McClauShry had Il number OF
leaders brought to his office He told
them that if any dynamite was thrown
| he would pay little attention to the
fanatics dOings, but would arrest every
reading anarchist and they would take
part i'll the biggest hanging that ever
occurred i'll Chicago. The plain talk
mad the desired effect and the reds be-
came less active.
Information was gathered then by
letters from anarchists of Paris which
led to the discovery that the bombs
used by Rayachol in the Rue Clchy,
Paris, explosion, were furnished by Chi
cago anarchists
Major McClaughry opened communi-
cation with the project of police in
Paris, Superintendent Byrnes, of New
York, and Scotland Yard, London, with
the result that Il compact was formed,
that each should keep the others post
ell as to the movements of the reds
i'll their respective cities whenever one
went from one to the other
Through this compact Major Nc
Claughry was notified that Prince Kra-
potkine, the Russian anarchist resid-
ing in London, had arranged to come
30 Chicago, and was enabled to pre-
vent it. The anarchists threatened to
Blow UP the residence of Hampstead

Bar Harbor is pretty far away"
she suggested
Bar HarbOrv' he exclaimed.
YES" she said, Bar Harbor, of
course. And Newport is nearly as far.
Perhaps Lake Geneva will do"
Lake Geneva he cried. What are,
you talking about?"
''Why, the tooth, Of course" she re-
piled. Eve might go to Lake Geneva
and get one of those pretty yachts;
and"
''Yaehtsr' he roared. 'What do you
want of a yacht? Do you think teeth
are pulled with bow-sprits or anchor
chains?'
"Why, no." she returned in surprise.
But I thought that was the correct
thing now. Didn't Mr.. Cleveland go to
Bar Harbor and get on Mr.. Benedict's
yacht to have his tooth pulled? Didn't
he go off where he could be alone ON
the broad and heaving bosom Of the
ocean and no one could hear him yell?
Aren't you a good and consistent
democratic
Eyes, Mrs. Milkins, am" he replied
desperately. Il AN a good and con-
Sistent democrat, but l am not presi-
dent of the United States and neither
are you, and we won't have any yachts
in ours. Wen just go downtown to-
morrow morning and you will PUNK
yourself down in a dentists chair, and
if laughing gas won't keep you from

Chicago, Sept. 2S.-The markets were

late and closed very much mixed for
comparison with yesterdays closing

gains and others slight losses.
New York, Sept. 2S.-During the last
hour on Wall street a decided impetus
was given trading by reports that fav-
