entirely made through tickets in the

The NEWS has a guarantee OF 1000

that long before the end of that
time the present distress we'll be so far
relieved that the Bread Fund will have
concluded its beneficent work.

THE News Bread Fund the handsome

by depositors in their Olneyville

Office boy would be capable OF it, for the

Here is what he has been trying to do.

peddles out the bread at 8 cents loaf.

NEW YORK, Jan. 91.-President John A.
Stewart Of the United States Trust com.
pany, in company with President +.
King of the Union Trust company, were
very active yesterday In missionary work
on behalf of Secretary Carlisle's new bond
issue. They visited all the principal
financial institutions down town, and in
fuenced the bankers to subscribe for fo5,-
20 100 worth of new bonds.
This is not q syndicate" said Mr..
Stewart to reporter. ut is purely a
matter of personal interest to all the sub
scribers who have come to the conclusion
that the failure of the bond issue would
reflect on the credit of the government.
The statement that they were actuated 20
this by fears that Secretary Carlisle would
have bill passed authorizing the coinage
of the silver bullion now in the treasury
Is not fair to Mr.. Carlisle. II such a
thing were attempted / am positive the
secretary of the treasury would not be the
person who would propose such q meas

Eve have been more successful than We
anticipated and already we have an assur-
ance of the purchase of half of the whole
issue. We have not confined the amount
of the proposed purchase, and il Is possible
that the remainder Of the bonds may be
bought in this city"

that plenty of druggists will be glad to
knock off something for cases OF need
because they are doing il every day, Just
as doctors are in the regular course of
business.
The suggestion comes from an offer
made by downtown drug store to put
up prescriptions for News patients free OF
any cost whatever. THE News felt that
one firm ought not make all the sacrifice
and asked him to wait little until a
general expression from the druggists
might he secured.
