TRADE PARALYZED IN THE EAST
The Plans of the Government Sc
verely Condemned by the Leading
Newspapers of England.

LONDON, Jan. GA dispatch to the
Times from Calcutta says there was an
other heavy fall in exchange to-day. the
condition of the money market being
almost one of panic. 1t is feared that Sec
rotary of State Kim berly may accept any
rate offered at the next sale of bills. The
state of balances in the Presidency banks
makes it practically certain that Secretary
Kimberly can command fair sales II he
only holds on week or so longer, but the
fact that he may surrender is Gripping
business.
A dispatch to the Times from Hong
Kong says: The breakdown OF the Indian
Government in attempting TO maintain
fictitious rate of exchange, while leaving
the future as uncertain as before, has had
the worst possible effect. Business in
Shanghai and Hong Kong is paralyZed.
The Globe says the Indian financial
prospects are in state of chaos and with
out any tendency to a satisfactory solu-
ton. The Globe remarks one great eX-
pertinent has collapsed and the reversal OF
the attempt made in June 10 subject

The whole financial situation in India
must now be faced, and the Intervention

large commission to overhaul the whole
subject, ana with prOportionate power TO
give effect 10 his recommendations. The
ST. James Gazette severely critlciZes the
past Indian policy. and says that after de-
moralzing trade in June the Indian Gov
ernments unfortunate experiment has
completely broken down, and It's tardy re-
treat from an untenable position also
means that GladstOne's Government is at

WITHIN HIS RIGHTS.
Secretary Carlisle Has Power in Law
to Issue Bonds.

WASHINGTON. Jan. 22-The discussion
as to the right of Secretary Carlisle TO
issue new 5 per cent bonds and the pro-
posed attempt of the Knights of Labor to
secure an injunction restraing him. are
looked upon here as based on insufficient
argument.
Ex-Judge Noah Davis said to-day: Il
have not studied the question and do moi
care to speak from the conviction of in
vestigati0n. However, it is to be supposed
the Secretary and administration were
convinced of its constitutionality before
deciding upon the issue.
Sherman, than whose opinion none
could be much more valuable. think. has
expressed the belief that the Secretary of
the Treasury has the right to issue bonds.
Among the leading bankers there was no
doubt expressed us to the Secretary's right
to authorize the issue. The opinions of a
large number of legal authorities have
been obtained by the bankers here and
they are unan imousiY in support of the
Secretary's position"
