dressed the Admiral thus: We shall

OF my recollection when l addressed the

not say exactly what was the
relative bearings OF the two vessels,
but the Camperdown certainly was on
the starboard bow. We had turned eight
points. The approximate time between
hauling down the signal and the COLI
sion was three and one-half TO four
minutes. At the moment of the colli-
sion both telgraphs indicated full speed
astern. 1 cannot say, however, what
the engines were doing. The ships way
had been checked appreciably. Directly
after the collision the engines were
stopped"
He should say that ten minutes
elapsed between the collision and the
sinking. The greatness Of the NOR
tality had been partly due TO the fact,
he thought, that many stokers and
marines were unable to swim.

The president or ON a Cruise.

BuzZARD's BAY, Mass, July 17.-Presi-
dent Cleveland has not yet gone 10 New
York as was supposed when he sailed on
the Yacht Oneida this afternoon, in com
pany with Commodore Benedict and DR..
BRYANT. II is authoritatively stated here
this evening that the party has gone on a
short cruise and fishing excursion 70 be alb
sent from here about two days. tits not
generally known in what locality the
party will cast their lines, but IL is
reported that part OF the time
NAV be spent in the vicinity
of Block Island. When the President left
today he appeared in the best OF health
and he has no laments whatever. Neither
has DR.. Bryant returned 10 New YORK,
but on the other hand will accompany the
President back TO Gray Gables, where he
will probably remain throughout the
month OF July. Mrs Cleveland, In COM
pany with her daughter and maid. drove
here for the mail tonight.
NEWPORT, X. l., July l1-President
Cleveland arrived here about O'Clock this
evening. The Oneida anchored In the
outer harbor and no one but the steward
has been ashore. Few knew OF the Presi-
dent being In this locality. He apparently
does not desire any demonstration, hence
the anchorage in the out Of way place In
stead of with the other yachts in the inner
harbor. II is expected that tomorrow an
elrly start will be made for the westwarc,
where fishing will be resumed.

THE GOLD GOING DOWN.
Heavy Clearing House Drafts Cause q
shrlnkage In tho Reserve.

oMEAAkAAo AM NAAo ANgeoAF
WASHINGTON, D. c., July 17.-heavy
clearing house payments in New York
caused the gold reserve to fall lower
than 1t has been for several days past,
and S346, $50 less than il was on Sstur-
day. The reserve to-day amounts to
SOS, O59, $50, currency balance sec, H.
9lS.
The Star this evening gives publicity
TO the following statement in regard to
the gold payments from the United
States Sub-Treasury in New York:
Considerable effort is being made
by financial agents here TO discover the mo-
tive behind these payments. But the
department is as close-mouthed as clam.
The explanation got through private
seurcss is that the department is trying TO
take advantage Of the scarcity OF small and
convenient currency for internal busl-
ness TO pinch the banks as the banks have
pinced the government by storing gold.
The banks are generally in need OF
small bills for current business transac-
tiOns and for use in the agricultural dis
triCts. The theory is advanced that II they
cannot get what they need OF this sort OF
currency by any other means, they will
have 10 make terms with the treasury
which would involve their exchanging
gold or gold certificates in large quantities
for notes and certificates of small denomi-
nations.
1t is said that the department can afford
TO paw out gold Oa the drafts presented by
the banks, If, by so doing they can cut on
the source through which the banks would
get their small notes, and put them to suf-
hcient Inconvenience TO bring them TO
terms The banks understand that if they
want small notes aud certificates they can
secure them by taking large quantities
and paying for them IN gold, and tbs the
theory of the department that by pnchihg
them pretty close they can be forced to do
this. II is very probable that the issue Of
gold certificates will not be resumed If the
gold reserve gets above hundred million
as it is not clear that the law is mandatory
in requiring a renewal Of this issue after
il has been stopped by reason of the re-
serve falling below hundred million.

TROUBLE AHEAD.

Gut All Round on Prescription Blow
ers.
Special Telegram 70 tie Re ttsr.
MARION, IND, July 17.-Present in
dications point To serious trouble be-
tween the flint glass manufacturer and
the prescription branch OF the American
Flint Glassworkers' Union. The manu-
facturers have sent telegram TO the
fiint workers convention In session In
this city demanding general 10 per
cent. reduction in all lines OF prescrip-
tion ware, and the listing Of CHI
cago and Philadelphia ovals At the
same price. Unless the prescription
blowers agree 10 these terms they
add, q conference is not waited. This
is pretty plain talk, and the prescrip-
tlon blowers do not take 1t with the
best OF humor. In convention they
have passed resolution stating they
will accept no reduction In wages and
have so notified the msnufas
A lockout In September In the prescrip-
tion department means idlepess for
many men, as large number of blow
ers are employed in that line. Pitts
burg, Philadelphis and Alton turn
class OF goods. The officers OF the
out the largest quantity OF this
convention have verv little to say about
the situation, but think there will De no
lockout. The lips OF the delegates
have been tightly sealed, and no infor-
nation can be obtained from them. 1t
is evident, however, that things look
black, and there is likely to be trouble
ahead unless the difficulty can be set
tied. No date has been fixed for the
meeting of the conference committee,
nor will any be fixed at this convention.
Reports were received from the Mold
makers and Pressed Ware Committees.
No changes In the wage list were recon-
mended and the reports were adopted
by the convention.
A rule was adopted giving Pittburs
firm permission to make tube aud elec-
trio bulbs during July and August An
electric light company was in the mar
ket for large quantity Of bulbs, and
the permission was granted to prevent
the order going TO the non-union glass
works at Corning, N. Y. The rule was
also made to apply to any manufactur-
ers who should ask the officers Of the
Flint Union for the privilege OF work
ing during the summer months.
All the reports Of the committee are
expected to be disposed OF by tomorrow
night. The contest for the national
secretaryship has narrowed down to
John Kinster, OF this city, and George
w. Payne, OF MilIvIlle, n. j. The lat
ter once held the position. The ques-
tlon that will command most attention
is the method OF fighting non
unionists. What Is known as the bully
system now has the approval OF the
leaders and many Of the delegates. BY
that method non-unlon employers are
induced, II possible, TO employ union
workmen. even II they are TO be paid
non-union rates. The organization then
compensateS the workmen for the dif-
ference in the scale. This Is much less
expensive and In many respects less nn-
satisfactory than the strike. It's ap-
proval by so large body OF wage
workers as this is significant.

Curiosity Among New York Bankers.

Nsw YORK, July l7.-Much curiosity
has been shown in banking circles, as to
the cause Of the Treasury officials volun-
tariiy paving out gold in settlement OF
clearing house balances, and for Govern
meut checks over the counter, when some
form of currency would have been
more desirable 10 the payees. Con-
rad y. Jordan, Assistant United States
Treasurer in this city was questioned
ABOUT this to-day and asked for an explana-
tion. especially in view Of the fact tnat 1t
had been supposed that the government
was desirous of building up the gold re-
serve again 10 the 800, 100000 limit. Mr..
Jordan declined 10 give any reason for the
treasury paying out gold as stated, but
suggested that il might be inferred TO be
due 10 a desire 10 provide for some need for
q supply of currency at not distant date.
He secuted the suggestion, however, that
has been made that il was because the gov
ernment did not wish 70 issue any more
gold certificates, which it must do as soon
as the gold reserve is sl00,0O0,0OO, the
theory of the suggestion being that gold is
more readily boarded in that form, the gov
ernment storing il free OF cost.
From another source it was learned that
the Government has been paying out gold
because it feared that unless it made pro-
vision in time il would be unable TO sup
Div the demands for currency that IL ex-
poets may be made upon il in short time
