Return Home September 30.
LONDON, Sept. ia representative
of the press had an interview yesterday
with Mr. Wilson, the congressman from
West Virginia, whose tariff measure
has attracted so much attention in Eu-
rope. Mr.. Wilson said that his trip
across the Atlantic had greatly I'm
proved his health. Unless his pro.
gramme Is changed he will sail for
home on September 20.
Referring to the recent election In
the state Of Maine, the gentleman
from West Virginia said that he did
not consider the republican victory as
pronounced criticism of the tariff
Legislation Of congress. According to
MIR. Wilson, the democrats Of Maine
are temporarily angcred ut certain
tariff reductions, and especially at the
reduction Of duty on lumber. But, he
added, Names situation prevents that
state from being an index to the poll
tical currents Of the United States.
Mr. Wilson decidedly stated that
President Cleveland had no thoughts
Of again being candidate for the
presidency. Messrs. Reed and McKin-
ley were, in his opinion, candidates for
the republican nomination, but he
thought the republican party would
probably select tariff conservative
like Allison.

serve Slowly Increasing.
WASHINGTON, Sept. l5.-1'he net cash
in the treasury at the close Of business
yesterday was Sl27, lG9, Al, of which
Sj6,0ls, ,52i represented the gold reserve.
The gold reserve has been steadily
climbing upward for the past month.
On August IT reached It's lowest point
in the record Of the department, $52,-
lsO,50O. Since that date II has In
creased almost S5,0OO,0O0 and the in
crease has largely allayed the fears Of
the treasury officials. During the past
week 1t has increased over 81, 100000
This increase is accounted for by the
surrender Of gold voluntarily by the
banks and its exchange for small
notes During the past week $4,000
have been 50 exchanged, The balance
of the increase Is due to the purchase
Of bullion at Helena, Denver and Char
lottc, N. c. The large increase in the
output Of gold in Colorado and Mon.
tana piles up the gold reserve, as 1t
finds its way directly to the assay
Offices Of the government.
