He Dsprecates the Issue Of Bonds by the
Treasury.
ST.. LOUIS. Nov. 26 I'm response to q
telegram to r. P. Bland. asking for an
expression on the bond issue, tho follow.
ing was received by the Post-Dispatch
today:
LEBANON, NO., Nov. 26th.
To the Editor OF the Post D Dispatch:
II the secretary of the treasury would
exercise his option to pay out silver tor
greenbacks and treasury notes issued
under the Sherman law there could be
no drain of gold from the treasury. The
government of France does this and
keeps all her money at par. This bond
issue business looks like an attempt to
force congress- to retire our treasury
notes and substitute q ~ stem OF national
bank currency. The fight is still on
between the advocates OF free coinage of
silver as the true mode Of currency re-
form and the adherents of the national
banks. 1t is proposed by the latter to
farm out to corporations the power to
control the value and volume of money.
Surely the money monopoly OF this
country now thinks it is in the saddle,
but time will tell whether the people OF
monopoly shall rule this country.

delay offered by the secretary OF the
treasury to pay for the bonds, but on

promptly. Already Assistant Secretary
Curtis has been in communication by
long distance telephone with parties
representing the syndicate. who desire
to know when they can deposit gold for
the bonds. He replied that thew could
do 40 at the su b-treasury at New York up
to the close of business today. 1t will be
some days, however, before the entire
amount can be paid. "a some of it will
find its way into the sub treasuries at
Chicago and at San Francisco and at
other rsub-treasuries.
From the statements contained in the
bid made by the syndicate, the treasury
officials believe that between $50, 900, 900

in at the sub-treasury at New York, and
the remainder at the sub.treasuries at

THE VOICE OF THE HUB.
BosToN, Nov. 26.-An audience which
crowded the Cradle OF Liberty to the
doors. made up mostly OF Armenians,
but with large number OF Americans,
gathered ct Faneuil hall tonight to
hold an indignation meeting over the
recent atrocious treatment OF Armenians
by representatives of the Turkish gov
eminent. Among the speakers were
many representative citizens, as we'll as
number OF leading clerQymen OF Bos-
ton. Rev. ]. Barrows presided. With
him upon the platform were Governor
Greenhslge, Mrs. Julia Ward Howe,
Hon. William Lloyd Garrison, Rev.
Francis Eckert, Rev. Thomas Van Ness
Of Boston and Dr.. Samuel T. Gum bert
OF Cambridge, all of whom made ad-
dresses. The resolutions adopted re-
cite that
"Whsreas, It was the report OF an
American court of inquiry that fret
convinced Mr.. Gladstone of the truth
of the Bulgarian atrocities, the meeting
do earnestly petition His Excellency,
Grover Cleveland. to instruct our minis>
ter at Constantinople to investigate this
matter, either by sending to the spot
such persons as he may see ft, or by
joining in commission, sent by the
united European powers"
The resolution proceeds with an ap-
peal to the signatory powers, especially
to Great Britain, for the enforcement Of
the sixty-frst article OF the treaty Of
Berlin.
William Lloyd Garrison was the chief
speaker of the evening.
THANKS FOR SYMPATHY,
LONDON, Nov. 6.-The supreme Arme.
nian patriarch has written to the presi-
dent of the Anglo. Armenian association
expressing his thanks for the steps that
have been taken in Europe, America
and India in behalf OF the prosecuted
Armenians.
A Constantinople dispatch says the
sending OF a commission to inquire into
the massacre of Armenians will have
the effect Of letting the local officials
know that the foreign ENJOYS are watch
ing their conduct. The report of the
commission when published is not
likely to have any value. The muftis of
Moosh has been decorated. although he
is one of the officials implicated in the
massacre. Private letters state the con-
dition OF affsirs in the Sassoum district
causes the most anxiety.
