NO GOLD RAID TODAY
Reserve Not Attacked and Treasury OFF,
cials Cheerful.
Believe the Bond Issue Will Prove n
Success-The Amount Already
Withdrawn by Banks.

Up to 80 o'clock this afternoon the treas
rry officials had not received any notice Of
gold Withdrawals today from the subtreas-
ury at New York, and as none was made
yesterday it is hoped that the worst is over.
The fact that only something over $5,OOO,-
OOO has been taken out of the gold reserve
is not of itself of very great significance
when 1t is recalled that during the pendency
of the last issue there were practically no
Withdrawals until the subscriptions had
been awarded and the time had come for
payment. 1t is thought to be not unlikely
that large bids will be offered and the with
drawals of gold to meet them made con-
tingent on their acceptance. The danger
OF heavy gold losses cannot be said to have
passed until the bidders have all settled
their accounts. Bids continue to come in
in numbers. but, notwithstanding the spe-
citc directions of the Secretary in his cir
cular to the effect that all bids must be
sealed and marked proposals for the pur-
chase of 5 per cent bonds" many of the
bidders have ignored this direction and as
a consequence their bids will be thrown
out as irregular. Nearly all of these, how
ever, are very small amounts, and aside
from the disappointment which their re-
lection will cause to intended purchasers it
is not matter Of serious regret.

Counsel Tor the sugar trust Witnesses

In the Court of Appeals Mr.. Chief JUS
tice Alvey this morning announced that the
court had decided to allow the appeal
prayed for yesterday in the case of John
w. Mccartney and Elverton r. Chapman,
the indicted sugar trust witnesses. The
following order was thereupon entered: In
consideration of the peculiar and special
nature of this case, we have, in the exer-
else of the discretionary power vested in
this court under the statute. concluded to
allow the appeal as prayed. and 1t is so
ordered
The appeal allowed by the Court of APP
peals, as explained In yesterdays Star is
from the decision of Judge Cole, rendered
last week. overruling the demurrers filed
by the defendants to the indictments re-
turned against them. The action of the
appellate court this morning merely de-
lays the trial Of the parties until after it
has passed upon the validity of the indlct-
ments, and it's action of today Is an excep-
ton In the matter, the usual practice of
the court being to refuse to pass upon a
demurrer filed in a criminal cause until
aftef trial of the case Is first had. AS 1t
Is understood that the Court Of Appeals
will adjourn tomorrow until the first Mon
day in December, II is not likely that the
appeal will be considered by the court
much earlier than the 18th Of next month.

SHOE LEATHER WASTED.
Calculate How Much Walking to City
Post Office Costs.

No one should be inclined to complain
because work Is being done on the post
office at only -wo or three points. 1t is
lucky for Washington that there are Ia
borers delving at all. The building is so
large around tnat 1t takes time for the
little band Of devoted men to make the
circuit Today the various groups Of men
aggregated fifty, and the vanguard of the
stone settlers had reached as far as the
northwest corner, where they were put
ting up the stones for the second story.
Notwiths landing the fact that the gangs
have now practically moved all around the
block there Is not single point In the
periphery that Is finished to the top OF the
second story. Here and there a window
cap Is set, but nowhere Is the wall made
solid up to the floor of the third story.
Meanwhile, the work is going on at the
tower, where great blocks of stone are
being set with leisurely care. The fifty
men at work today furnish the potentiality
to finish the building on or about the "a
Of January, 1898, according to the absurdly
generous calculations The Star made in
the beginning.
Meanwhile, citizens are puzzling over the
problem OF how much shoe-leather Is
wasted, and Is yet to be wasted, by them
in their trips to the now out-of-the-Way
post office between now and the time when
the avenue home of the office Will be nm
ished. This problem offers such possibili-
ties of interesting calculation that 1t
should be taken up seriously by some
mathematician with lots of spare time.

TRIMMED THEIR TAILS.
Origin of the RumOr That the Presf-
dents Horses Were DOcked.

Origin of the RumOr That the Presi-
dents Horses Were DOcked.
The Humane Society Of Washington has
Investigated reports that the horses Of the
White House stables have undergone the
process Of tail docking and have found
them to be untrue. Mr.. A. s. Pratt,president
OF the Washington society, receiy ed a tele-
gram today from President Haynes Of the
New York Society for the Prevention of
Cruelty to Animals, calling his attention
to the matter, and asking him to take ac-
ton. An agent of the local society went
through the White House stables and
found that the tails of the carriage horses
had recently been trimmed, but that the
flesh had not been cut at all. From the
trimming the impression was probably
given that the tails had been docked. The
keeper of the stables Informed the agent
that President Cleveland was opposed to
docking as being cruel and unnecessary.
There Is District law fixing a penalty
of 500 for docking a horse. Its passage
was secured some years ago by the HUI
name Society. 1t is sometimes evaded by
sending horses out of the District to un-
dergo the operation, for the law Is always
enforced in the city whenever evidence of
its violation can be secured. Mr.. Pratt
when seen today, said:
II was unwilling to believe that the
President would have his horses docked,
and am glad to learn that he has not done
so.''

THE TRIAL POSTPONED
Commander Smiths Court Martial Set for
Tomorrow.
To BE Tried on Serious Chnrges-NO
Time to Prepare Plea
Proceedings Today.

The naval court-martial designated by
Secretary Herbert to try Commander Fred
erfck X. Smith. retired, on charges that
relate to his financial relations, met again
today at the navy yard at 1870 O'CLOCK.
When the court met yesterday the accused
was not present, and an adjournment was
had until today. During the afternoon a
telegram was received at the department
from Commander Smith, stating that he
had been detained out of the city, and
asking that the court proceedings be post
poned. This request was not granted.
When the court met this morning Com
mandeT Smith was not present, but In
about two minutes he entered the room
with his counsel, Gen. James Il. Brady OF
Virginia. The judge advocate found that
the court had no objection to Gen. Brady S
appearance, and proceeded to read the de-
tail for the court as follows: Commodore
Rush X. Wallace, president; Capt. John A.
Howell Capt Alexander II. Mccormick.
Capt. Merrill Miller, Capt. Mortimer l..
johnson, Capt. Aren't 5. Crowninshield.
Capt. frank Wilds, Capt. James n. Sands,
Capt. Yates Stirring, and First Lieut.
Lauchheimer. marine corps, judge advo-
cate.
Commander Smith said he had no chal-
lenge to make against the court. as thus
constituted. He said he had received the
charges ard specifications only few min
utes before the court convened. The mem.
bers, Judge advocate and stenographer
were then sworn and the room was clear
ed for the dcliberation OF the court
When the doors were reopened, Gen.
Brady made a statement to the court, In
which he begged indulgence for his un-
familiarity with the methods OF procedure
now in vogue In courts-martial. AS to the
hardness of his client. he said that the
orders from the Secretary to report to the
of the Washington navy yard
had not reached Commander Smith until
Saturday night. He had wired asking for
an extension. which had been refused, and
he then started at once for Washington,
arriving last evening. He had had no time
to go over the charges and specifications
and had not settled upon the plea that he
should make. Therefore Gen. Brady asked
the court for an extension of time in which
to consider the question of the plea.
The president of the court ordered the
room cleared, and, after a few minutes of
called in the accused and his
attorney, and announced that 1t had been
decided to grant an extension until tomor-
row morning at 10 o'clock when the ac-
cused would be required to plead. The
court then adjourned for the day.
The charges which Commander Smith Is
to answer are "scandalous conduct and
"disobedience of orders"
