NEW YORK. Aug 4.
Ehefe was decided irreg ular1ty in today g
market, due to realizing profit and some uh-
easiness caused by doubts as to the presi-
dents disposition toward the new tariff bill,
but strong tone prevailed at tie close and
the majority of changes are on the side of
improvement. The circulation of rumors
that the President might veto the bill and
discussion of the possibilities of a free
sugar bill passing the Senate indicate that
there yet remains some uncer tainty which
will not be fully ended until Mr.. Cleveland
acts. The prevailing opinion, however, is
that the bill will become a law and that no
other tariff legislation is possible at this
session OF Congress. Assuming that the
measure goes on the statute books it is
probable that there will be some immediate
stimulus to certain lines of industry and
the ending of the uncertainty which has SO
long held business in check should tend to
build up trade. 1t would be wise, how
ever, to note the fact that all adverse
factors have not been removed from the
situation. The shortage in the corn crop
while exaggerated no doubt is still
sufficient to modify the recovery whic h
otherwise would occur in railway earnings
West and the low prices of wheat are a
factor that teLds to repress agricultural
prosperity. MucE work remains to be done
in placing several great railroad systems
upon solvent basis, and the refrigeration
of the National treasury is point which
will bear watching. Considering these
elements and the relation they bear to rail
way earnings and the future scale of divi-
dendH we do not believe that the outlook
warrants sustained advance. The promise
of Improvement later on will doubtless
stimulate more hopeful settlement and
evidences are to be noted that the sort in
terest still remains large. For the moment
the speculation will probably be variable
and Irregular and we should advise con
servative policy, buying good stocks only
on the reactions.

SILVER CONFERENCE CALLED.
1t Will Meet in Washington. Aug.
16. to Decide Upon a Policy.

Gen. A. J. Warner, president of
the American Bimctallic league, has
issued the following address: "The
country has now had a years expert
cnce under gold standard policy,
since the acts of 1893 closing the
mints of India and the stoppage of
the coinage of silver in the United
States. The results of this expert
ence are manifest on every hand in IA
business depression of the country,
in labor strikes and in general dis
content that everywhere prevails.
Congress will soon complete its
work, and the general situation and
the prospects before the country will
then be fully disclosed. Some state
elections, involving the ele stion OF
United States senators, have already
been entered upon and the campaign
for the election of members of the
house for the fifty-fourth congress
will soon begin.
"In view of these conditions, the
executive committee of the Amerl.
can Bimetallic league have thought
it advisable to call conference o
those who believe that no permanen
improvement in the condition of thu
country can be hoped for as long a
the present gold standard policy il
pursued, and who favor the immedi
ate restoration of the bimetalli'
standard in the United States, witt
the free coinage of both gold ant
silver at the ratio of sixteen to one
to be held in Washington, Thursday
Aug. Is, 1894, to take into consider
alton the condition of the country
and to decide upon the policy to b
pursed to bring about a change i
the monetary policy of the govern
ment necessary to restore prosperit
to the people,

Instructions to the Government
MintS to Coin IL Few
Silver Dollars.
WARNER AND HIS WORK.
He Calls Another Bi-MctalliC
Conference to be Held at
Washington.

BY direction of the secretary of
the treasury, Mr.. Preston, director of
the mint, has issued orders to the
mint authorities at San Francisco
and New Orleans to begin at once
the coming of silver dollars and dur
ing the present month to coin up to
the ordinary capacity of the mints.
The silver to be first coined will
be blanks and ingots, of which there
are sufficient to coin about 81 1000
600 at these two mints and at Phila-
delphia. AS soon as this supply is
exhausted work will probably begin
on the silver bars of which there is a
years supply at San Francisco and
New Orleans and probably a 5-year's
supply at Philadelphia.
So far as can be learned is is no
the purpose of the government to ex
tend the coinage of seigniorage be
yond few millions. Each of th'
three mints will probably be worked
at its normal capacity on silver dol
lars for the next several months anc
presumably to the end Of the year.

DRILLING UP FOR QUESTIONS.
Some of the Applicants for Citizen
ship Attending Night School.

"Sephitrovitch .Josey Hoveracht-
hovich'' is the name of one of the rs
applicants admitted to citizenship by
Judge Speer this week. Six were
turned away with sorrow depicted
on their countenances, says the
Butte Miner. Among them were
several who had been rejected dur
ing the past week. So anxious are
these poor fellows, (the majority of
whom are employed in the smelters
of Anaconda) to secure citizenship
papers that when rejected they go
out, drill up on the questions to be
propounded by the court officials
and return and make second appli-
cation, bringing new witnesses each
time. One man has made at least
half dozen unsuccessful applica-
tions. He appeared before Judge
Speer again Monday. He knew
little or nothing of the English lang
wage, and in reply to every question
put to him would answer ''Franz
Joseph"
"Tell that man." said Judge Specr
to the Interpreter, "to loose about an
hours sloep every night studying
the English language, and in six
months from now he might pass"
"Can you write your name?" said
the Judge to the next applicant.
"Yes," replied the witness, but it
takes hlm about an hour to do it. He
is learning.
"A good many seem to be learning
Just now," remarked Judge Speer.
The next man eeald not write but
said he was attending night school
and hoped to be able to do so soon

A Pound Of Gold Dust.

r. j. Benn, the old sage hen, made
a quick trip last week to his gold
mine in the Sweet Grass Hills, which
was reported to have been jumped
by unknown parties in haste to grow
rich. The report was untrue, as the
claim had not been jumped, carried
away, or even pulled up, and r. j.
b. came home happy with a pound
of gold dust in his minds eye
