President Cleveland Speaks,

WASHINGTON, June 5.-The president
said this evening, in reply to a direct
question by a representative of the AS
ISOLATED Press, that he intended to call
an extra session Of congress not earlier
thai the first nor later than the fifteenth
Of September, unless unexpected o n
tingencies should necessitate an earlier
meeting. The president further said:
"While there has been no mystery nor
secrecy in regard to my intention in this
matter, / think it not amiss that u peo-
pie should be informed authoritatively
that the time is at hand when their rep
resentatives in congress will be called
upon to deal with a financial condition
which is the only menace to the coun-
try's welfare and prosperity. 1t is we'll
for the people to take up the subject for
themselves and arrive at their own con.

policy that may be proposed.

RUN On THE BANK.
A Foolish Excitement in Chicago Met by
Abundance of Cash.

Abundance of Cash.
CHICAGO, June 5.-The failure of Her
man Schafner, which occurred last Fri
day, bore fruit today in the well defined
runs which were precipitated on almost
if not every one of the savings banks o
Chicago. The first to feel the effect o
the excitement was the Bank of Com

The Illinois Trust company, which has a
larger line Of this class of depositors than
any other bank in the city, amounting at
times to over twelve millions of dollars,
put on an extra force of tellers and at
II o'clock posted a notice upon the door
that the bank would remain open as long
as the excitement should continue.
The Hiberrian bank which was the de-
pository for a large number of Irish
Americans of small means, was crowded
all day, but found no difficulty in meet
ing the demand and at 4 o'clock the ex-
element was p~erceptibly decreased.
The dime savings bank took advant-

was greatly aggravated by a number of

poses of their own, devoted themselves
to the circulation of sensational rumors

ployes, the stables, the exercise rings, rid

all the paraphernalia of the famous farm
are accurately represented. The attendant
in charge explains all features of the farm

was started partly through philanthropic
motives. When Mr.. Ashmead Bartlett
married the elderly Burdett-Coutts he not
only became Il very rich man but gained
the means of carrying out certain ideas
which he had long dreamed of. Believing
the hackney cab and carriage horses OF
England had been sadly neglected and
left to degenerate, he determined to found
a breeding farm for the purpose of elevat-

success.

Victoria of England and Marguerite OF
Italy send Tributes to the Fair.
CHICAGO, June The individual eX-
hibit of Queen Victoria Of England ar
rived at the worlds fair grounds this
morning. Along with it came the indi-
vidual exhibit of Marguerite, queen OF
Italy. These valuable additions to the
attractions at the fair were brought
from the safety deposit vaults, where
they have been since their arrival in the
city, on a big dray drawn by large
draught horses wearing gold-mounted
harness and guided by a driver dressed
in royal livery. The wagon was deco
rated with the royal colors of Great Brit
ain and Italy. On either side OF the
precious load marched a corps OF police.
The wagon was driven to the Admins
tration building, where President Hig-
genbothem, Director General Davis, and
other officials formally received the ex-
hibits. After brief speeches Sousa's
band played "Rule, Britannia" and
Italy's national air. Under the escort OF
ten Columbian guards the wagon was
driven to the Womsn's building, where
Queen Marguerite's exhibit was placed
on exhibition. The wagon was then
driven to the Fine Arts gallery and
Queen Victoris's contribution deposited
in the gallery.

COinpliments of Herr Krupn,

According to an interesting rumor, our
esteemed friend. Herr Krupp, intends
giving thaC mammoth shooting iron now
at jackson park to Chicago with his
compliments. II this is so. then Herr
krupp has II best thanks and all the
courtesies that are to be had i'll such an
ine1fably Lad season of weather. The
gun weighs 100000 pounds and over,
and rs it cost $50. eco to make it Herr
Krupp's testimonial would involve some
little expense.
But really we are not at all sure we
know what to do with the weapon. The
city has no marine defense to sustain,
and C couple Of trusty derringers in off,
cial hands are the only weapons needed
in clearing ont offensive bumboats. 1t
costs 81 200 to shoot the thing, and that
is quite II tidy sun to pay for the priv
ilege of bowling over targets placed on.
in the midwaters of Lake Michigan.
And when it went off we greatly fear
that some of Mr.. O'Neill's inspected"
hotels in the neighborhood would draw
themselves up and drop into dust heaps.
Besides, the thing would have to have a
fort to be housed in. And having one
fort we should need to have two to be
really thoroughly equipped. Having
these, we'd want more guns, and more
marines, and more gunpowder. And
then with all these. what use would they
be unless we got up a war just to have
everything in keeping?
Still, it's a great gun and an influen-
tial disconrager Of inimical advances.
II we mus take it, Herr Krupp has our
thanks. Chicago Record.
