NEW YORK, July 15.-It has just

his home and presented to him in the
name of Prince Antonio and Princess
Eulalie a saber of the finest workman
ship, in appreciation of the kindness of
Gen. Porter during the stay of the
royal visitors.
The saber is about three feet six
inches long, and is made of steel,
highly FURNISHED The scabbard is
entirely plain, but half of the blade is
embossed and engrossed in u very neat
design. The hilt, which forms basket
for the hand, has been cut into an
open design which forms the initials
"A" and ''E, F" surmounted by the crest
CT the royal family OF Spain.
The saber was made at the govern
ment works at Toledo, Spain, and the
blade is so pliable that it can be bent
almost into circle.

THE NATIONAL CURRENCY.

Letter from Henry Clews to Comptroller
Eckles
WAsHINGToN, July 17.--Comptrol1er
Eckles has received the following let.
ter from Henry Clews, the well-known
banker:
NEW York, July a.
Hon. John ~ Ecttes, Comptroller of the Cur
Fencs. Washington:
DEAR SIR-The national bank act certainly
should be amended to provide for notes being
issued up to the par value OF United States
bonds. Another amendment would also be
wise, to provide an issue OF notes against the
surplus capital of the national banks to the
extent of 75 per cent. thereof These two
changes In the law would make an increase in
the national currency amounting to about $780,
100000. and would provide the nation with
enough for its needs and it would be the best
and most legitimate kind, besides.
The New York banks now have a surplus
over capital of s70,O ,039 The national banks
of other cities and elsewhere have probably
300 900, ,0o0in addition. This backing in cash or
its equivalent to the notes issued against the
same would make them the strongest and most
legitimate character of money in circulation.
No stronger kind of money could be devised.
The surplus against which the issue of these
notes.would be made would be under the ma
tional bank examiners. The constant Increase
in the surplus of the banks would also give an
elastic character to such money, which is a
very desirable feature. Yours very truly,
HENRY CLEwS

WASHINGTON, June IA freight
train collision occurred near here yes
terday under unusual conditions. The
crew of an outgoing train saw man
lying near the track apparently in
jured, and in accordance with the rules
of the road the train was stopped and
an investigation made. 1t was found
that the man was unconscious from a
wound in the head and fractured leg.
He was placed in the caboose, but be-
fore the train could be started another
freight, also outward bound, came
along and crashed into the standing
cars The men in the caboose had not
time to remove the body of the injured
man, barely escaping the wreck them
selves by jumping. 1t is said by rare
good fortune the collision did not ag-
grayate the injuries of the victim. He
was brought to the city and placed in
hospital, and last night it was re-
ported that he was somewhat inn
proved. He has been identified as
VIM. Leonard, a cigarmaker living in

TENNESSEE STATE NEWS.


The state weather-Crop Bulletin.
The official weather-crop bulletin OF
the Tennessee Bureau for last week,
just received, says;
While the weather conditions during
the past week have been especially ia
vorable for threshing wheat and saving
hay, most of the growing crops have
suffered on account of the drouth. The
drouth was broken, however, the first
half of the week by seasonable show
ers, which were general over most OF
the State.
The wheat Is generally good, and in
most localities the yield and grain are
both very fair, though not up to the
crop of 1892. Aa a rule the crop was
harvested and saved in an excellent
condition. Threshing has been general
during the past ten days, and many
farmers have their grain ready for mar
ket, but are holding back for better
prices. Oats are exceptionally fine,
and large acreage has been harvested.
Tobacco, which was beginning to
need moisture, was -Greatly benefited
by the recent showers. The plants
seem to have taken fresh start and
are now growing nicely.
Cotton is looking we'll, and, with IA
Vorable weather, the yield will be very
good.
A very largo crop of hay has been
saved In frst-class condition, but there
is still considerable grass to be cut.
Pastures have suffered considerably y
since last report. but stock is still look
ing remarkably we'll, and, with the ex-
ception Of cholera among hogs in Ruth
erford County, is generally healthy.
Corn is doing very nicely, and where
we'll worked the crop is above the aver
age. 1t is generally in a good, healthy
condition, and free from grass and
weeds. Corn on the low lands has
made rapid growth, while the growth
of that on high ground has been some
what retarded by the dry weather.
Gardens are still very good, and vege-
tables are plentiful, the supply in many
instances being greater than the de-
mend. Peanuts are in excellent condi-
tion, but the acreage is somewhat be-
lew the average. Irish and sweet pota-
toes are clean of grass, and the pros
poets are now favorable for an abundant
yield. The carly crop of Irish potatoes
brought good prices.
The prospects for good fruit crop are
still fair. though many complain that
peaches are beginning to drop from the
tree before the fruit is fully matured.
Apples are almost a total failure, but
grapes are plentiful and the quality is
very fine. The berry season is nearly
over; the yield has been unusually
large, and great quantities have been
shipped to Northern cities. The later
crop of peaches is now coming on, and
the fruit is much better than the first
crop. They will be abundant during
the next two weeks.

A WONDERFUL SPECTACLE.
A Comet Which .Could Tale Unfold"
and Did.


WASHINGTON, July 17.-At 1920
o'clock Saturday night the comet which
is now the object of so much search
and speculation suddenly developed an
enormous tail which to the unprac-
ticed eye was taken to be a display of
aurora borealis. At that hour Prof.
Frisby, of the Naval observatory, was
studying the comet through the nine
inch glass. He noticed long streak
of greenish white light. shoot out
from the comet and extend it
self almost to the zenith. At
first, the nucleus of the comet
being at that moment hidden by a
fieecy cloud, it was thought that the
aurora borealis had sent out an adj
vance notice of brilliant engagement.
but as there was no Pickering, and as
the light came steadily from where the
comet had been last seen, the observer
concluded that he was witnessing q
comet in process of development. The
tail of the comet was 80 degrees in
length, about sixty times as long as
the moon is wide. and the tail extended
from 10 degrees above the horizon al
most to the zenith. 1t was plainly vis-
ible to the naked eye, and was watched
for some time by the corps of observers
at the institution.
Prof. Frisby said: There is no way
to explain the sudden freak of the
comet. They are erratic bodies at best,
and the only thing we can say is that
the zone had reached stage where it
was ready to throw out the long streak
of luminous gas which we call tail.
1t was not a bushy tail, but was a
long ribbon of light about three times
as wide as the moon"

The Jews fought back. Dozens were
