NEW YORK. Nov. 22.-The facts of the
case with regard to The payment Of prem
lums on gold are that less than 100000 in
all has oeen sold and the premium paid
In no case reached quarter of l per cent
The gold was purchased by individuals
who desired 10 make small subscriptions
for the new Government bonds. and who
either did not care to take the trouble to
go through the form necessary to secure
the gold at the sub-treasury or who
thought 1t might possibly lessen their
chances to obtain the bonds if they took
specie from tie treasury. Members of the
firms of Handy & Harmon. Zimmerman,
Eorshy d Message, Colgate & Co.. agree
IN saying 1t was nos unusual to buy gold
with premium of Is to "a and even u of l
per cent to supply an immediate want and
no notice would ordinarily be taken Of
such transaction. 1t is only in cnnnec-
ton with the Government bond issue and
the question of increasing the gold reserve
hat the N tier is used as subject of pub
lie interest and only those who do not un-
derstand the situation give it a second
thought. They say further that there are
no indie tions of furry in gold and that
gold IS net at premium in this city in any
sense of the word as all the yellow metal
required can be obtained through the
banks in the regular order of business.
WASHINGTON, Nov. 22.--The only with
drawal of god to-day from the sub.
treasury at New York was $4,000 by
Charles Halfway & Co., making the total
Withdrawn since November 10 S4 10000
There is no longer any doubts that tne
bids for the new issue of bonds will far
exceed the amount to be sold. Indeed.
the indications are that the bids already
received more than cover the $4,000, 600,
and that the large bids expected tom or
row from New York and other nearby
cities will raise the total to nearly
$75, 900, 600.
According to official figures the price to
be paid next Saturday on the per cent
bonds, so as to realize 8 per CEN, is
$116,006, in addition to ;he interest
reckoned from Novem Der l, to the date Of
payment.
The cash balance in the treasury to-
day was 500, Ali, $50; gold reserve. $751;

IN UNHAPPY SAMOA.
Political Unrest Continues at
the Islands.
The Indications Are That the Malie.
toa Government Is Undoubtedly
Doomed.

APIA, Nov. There is but little OF i'm
portance to report from these islands.
The state of political unrest still con-
tinues, without any prospect OF terminal
ton. From all appearances it would seem
as though the Male GA Government is
doomed. There can no longer be any
doubt of the rebel party being secretly
assisted with a view to placing it in pow er
and thus rendering German annexation OF
a protectOrate easy of accom- plishment.
The present President, German. is bit
terly dsliked on all sides. BE is extremely
indolent and intOlerant, and all his
actions show him to be anJag0nistic to the
loyal Samoan party. Truly. Samoa is a
most unhappy country. What with the
ipdifferences of the three great nations
which took her matters in hand and the
general incapa ity OF the foreign
officials who have been foisted upon
US, the position of these islands
is a hard one. And when, in ad-
dition TO this, we have irresponsible
know-nothlngs who, either for the sake of
advertising themselves or some more IN
scrupulous purpose, are necessarily stir
ring up strife among the Samoans, the
prospects for the future are gloomy.
Considerable progress is being made by
Chief Justice Ide with the land business,
he having got through large mum Der of
cases since his arrival He has just given
an important decision in regard to the isl-
depreciation Of Section of Article of the
treaty, which decision Is very unpopular
among many of the Europeans, particu-
larly the Germans, who openly state their
Intention of working for Ide's removal
The decision has been fav0rably received
by the natives and bY some of the foreign
ers, wis maintain it to be a just and
equitable one. The substance OF it is:
The Land Commission had ruled that
where land had been purchased previous
to 1879 the question OF whether it had
been purchased from the rightful owner
could not be raised on behalf of native
directors. Chief Justice Ide has reversed
this ruling. maintaining in effect that
such question materially affects the valid
ity of aliens titles.

Hatch Connected With the Wreck
at the TreStIe.
WOODLAND, Nov. 22.-The witnesses at
the morning session OF the Hatch trial

strikers camped in the willows near the
trestle, ostensibly sent there TO guard the
railroad properly. Que of the guard, Con-
nor, told him their real purpose was to
shoot the engineer who should attempt to
take a train out. On his way back he met
the three-seated rig containing seven or
eight men going in the direction of the
trestlP, and Hatch was one of the party.
G. K. Shuts, who is a cook. also saw the
carriage containing Worden, Hatch and
others going north on that day. At the
preliminary examination he iden fled
Mullen as Hatch. To-day he explained
the mistake By saying he was look ing at
Hart when the question was asked, and
not in The direction MS finger was pointed.
Hemberger. fisherman, heard an ex-
ploSiOD, and saw men running away from
The wreck. The testimony was the same
as at the Worden trial.
j. w. VIckers, new witness, was next
on the stand. He met Hatch and five
others on the morning of the wreck near
a schoolhouse north Of Washingtons.
Hatch inquired for a boat TO cross the
river. he got in the cart with the witness.
and rode to the Entrican and Merkeley
places. He got no boat. They rode back
to the schoOlhouse and separated, Hatch
going in the direction of the river. The
defense tried hard to tangle the witness,
but failed.
