Gladstone to Retire.

LONDON, Jan. 3l-A letter from Mr..
Gladstone announcing Lis retire
ment from the premiership will be sent
to the Queen before the re-opening OF
parliament. Mr.. Gladstone's decision
is due to sense of his advanced age
and to the great strain TO which he
was subjected during the late arduous
session of parliament He is also deep
ly disappointed because Of the rejection
OF the home rule bill and the opposition
to the parish councils bill by the
House of Lords. Domestic pressure
also had considerable influence in de-
termining mis- mind at last.
The Pail Mall Gazette saysit has rea-
son TO know from an authority that ii
is unable to disclose that Mr.. Gladstone
has decided to resign almost immedi-
ately
Mr.. Gladstone's secretary declares
that he knows nothing about the report
that Mr.. Gladstone would shortly re-
sign office.

JuDGING FROM present indications,
it looks very much as if Secretary Car
Isle will derive less credit from his
membership OF the Presidents cabinet
than he would have from that OF the
Senate, had ne retained it, and that. as
in the cases Of Messrs. Byard, Lamar
and Garland, ne will find that he made
a great mistake when he resigned an
honorable. and what in all probability
would have been an influential life posi-
ton, in which he would have increased
his fame, TO accept one offour years du-
ration, in which, to say the least. he has
not achieved eminent success. When
he gave up his seat in the Senate to &C
cept the treasury portfolio, he said he
did so at great personal sacrifice, and
his friends fear that he saw then what
others see now, and that in his case
also, coming events cast their shad-
ows before.

THERE WAS an election for two con-
gressmen in New York city yesterday,
and though in both districts the demo
Gratis have heretofore elected their can
didates by large majorities, in one their
nominee was elected by the skin of his
teeth and in the other was badly beat
en-. To attribute this to the effort to
lower the cost of living is absurd, and
is only essayed by those who are in
terested in preventing reduction In
the price of the necessaries of life. The
real and true cause is the dissatisfaction
and discomfort that prevail among the
democratic voters of New York, in con-
sequence Of the treatment they have
received from the leaders Of the party
they have heretofore supported.

RICHMOND AND DANvILLE.--The
following communication has been ad-
dressed to the holders of the Richmond
and Danyille floating debt by F. B. Oh
colt, president of the Central Trust
Company, of New York, as chairman Of
the committee appointed by the floating
debt holders, to call on Drexel, Morgan
& Co., in relation to their position under
the plan of reorganization.
"Gentlemen-I mailed to you last
week the substance OF an interview
held by Messrs. Baker Cannon and
myself with the reorganization COM
mittee of the Richmond Terminal Com
pany. l submitted to the committee
the communication which you have
received, and. not hearing from them, |
concluded that it met with their entire
approval. l have received from Mr..
Coster, the chairman of the committee,
the enclosed communication, which |
hasten to put into your hands.
Signed. F. P. OLCoTT.
In answer to Mr.. Olcott, Chairman
Coster, among other things, said that
in order to do no injury to the holders
of the Danville floating debt they had
last summer obtained an order of the
court allowing the receivers 10
consent that any such holder OF
stocks or bonds affected by the plan
might deposit them on the same basis
as other securities of the same issue,
and hold the reorganization receipts
as substituted collateral. The falling
off in railroad earnings during the past
eight months, as well as other circum-
stances, have resulted in a large addi
tional accumulation of debt by the
corporation and its receivers. This
complication is likely to involve some
changes in the plan. The reorganiza.
ton committee must also consider the
probability as to the continuance Of
small earnings during the next year or
two with reference to the future fxei
charges under the plan. Representa-
tives OF the Danvile has been assured that
they will be given sixty days notice of the

ceilings instituted under the five per cent

UNDER Mr.. Clevelands former ad

UNDER Mr.. Cleveland's former ad-
ministration. the law requiring the
maintenance OF a reserve fund OF one
hundred million in gold. solely for the
redemption Of paper currency, was
rigidlv observed. Now there is no
such fund al all. and the little gold that
is left in the Treasury. about sixty nil
lion. is in the common fund, and is be-
Ing paid out for current government
expenses. and If there should be gen.
eral demand for the redemption of the
paper money, it would be impossible TO
supply il, and the Treasury would De
bankrupt. But, for this condition OF
affairs, the present administration i
in no wise responsible. When Mr..
Cleveland's first term expired, the gold
reserve fund was intact. and there was.
besides that, surplus Of one hundred
million in the Treasury. Hardly, how
ever. had he vacated the White House
before MS successor sanctioned the cry
of his party, that the surplus was dan
gerous and must be dissipated as soon
as possible; and il was, and 50 soon

entire remainder of it dumped into the

which TO carry on the government.
