Landauer of New Orleans Points Out
That Consumers Are Anxious to Lay
in Big Stocks at the Present Low
Prices.
New Orleans, Nov. IA. R. Landauer

which he says: Il do not see any reason
to believe or assert that anything over a
100000 crop, If that much, will be mark
eted and counted for the 1894 '95 crop.
Trace continues good, Notwithstanding
the various unreliable rumors of a rather
dtscouragng outlook. There is great
anxiety both in this country and in Eu-
rope, TO stock up at present prices, and 1
have no reason to doubt but that this de-
mand will continue for some time
Trade in this country is improving, and
if the present low prices are continued for
another month the demand for Europe will
be-unprecedented. Hence, there is no rea-
son for second stampede considering that
the first was brought about by unprece-
IDENTIFY free marketing and discounting the
figures of production and consumption
which, in. my opinion, was never war
ranted."

CLEVELAND AND CARLISLE.
The President Denies That There Has
Been Disagreement.

Washington, Nov. 1.-THE attention of
the President was called to-day to the
statement contained in eertaill-nev ma
pers to the effect that there had been
disagreement between himself and Secre-
tary Carlisle in regard to the issue of
bonds and other matters, and intimating
that such disagreement might result in
the secretary's retirement from the cabi-
net. The President emphatically denied
the entire batch of silly misstatements'
and said: ''Never since our association
together has there been the slightest I'M
pleasantness concerning the affairs of the
treasury department or any other matter
Il have every reason to believe that his
attachment to me is as sincere and great
as mine is for him. / should be much af-
flicted If anything should cause him to
entertain the thought of giving up his po-
sition, where he is doing SO much for his
country. We have agreed exactly as to
the issue of bonds, and there has been no
backwardness on his part on that subject
l see it is said that L am formulating a
financial scheme. If such a scheme is pre-
sented, it will be the work of the Secre>
tary of the Treasury, and l shall indorse
and support it.
1.-The trouble seems to be that those
charged with the executive duties of the
government do not appear willing at all
times to take the counsels of the newspa-
pers and make public all they intend to
do"
Washington, Nov. 14-Coin cident with
the issue of the circular inviting bids for
gold United States bonds the treasury
department is beginning to lose gold
Yesterday it lost $1,000 in gold and to-
day $l30,000 in exchange for United States
notes and treasury notes. This gold was
Withdrawn from subtreasuries and fur
Their Withdrawals are expected. The first
offer for the new bond issue was re-
ceived at the treasury early this morn
ing. came in the form of a telegram
from the interior of New York state. 1t
was for 600 and the sender stated that
the price offered and other particulars
was contained in a letter which is now on
its way to Washington.
An additional bid for $500 of the new
bonds was received at the treasury de-
partment late this afternoon. None Of the
bids will be opened till Nov. "a, so the
price offered for the new bonds cannot
be stated, The two offers were made by
telegraph, and the details have been sent
by mail Large offers are not expected
until after Nov. 20.
London, Nov. 4.-Financial experts mere
generally agree that the new United
States loan of $50,000,O00 will probably have
the effect to stop the exports of gold from
the United States to Europe for the next
two or three months but the best authori-
ties do not think that the issue of bonds
without proper currency legislation can
prevent gold from leaving the United
States. The stock exchange is inclined to
favor the issue as likely to revive activity
in American securities, but regards itself
as powerless to start such a movement
without sustained help from Wall street.

No Truth IN the Story That the Old Leg

islature Is to Elect Them.
Washington, Nov. 1s.--In regard to the
statement that an effort might be made to
convene the late legislature of North Car
DINA in extra sessionafor the purpose of
electing democratic senator's before the
new legislature could &et together and do
that work, Senator Ralsom saidsto Uni
ted Press reporter this afternoon. There
is not word of truth in 1t, and the state
ment has not the shadow of foundation.
Not a word like it was uttered at the meet
ing between myself and Senator German.
and the proposition itself is utterly alb
surd. realize and recognize that the late
election in North Carolina was positively
adverse to my party, and it is my duty to
defer to the verdict of the election
IF anything further were needed to
show the absence of foundation of fact in
this story, it is found in the second article
of the 25th section of the constitution of
North Carolina, which says: The terms
of Office for senators and members of the
House of Representatives shall commence
at the time of their election. Consequent
ly it is the new populist legislature, and
not the defunct democratic legislature that
would convene If an extra session We're or
dered. This article was construed and sus-
tanned by the supreme court of the state
in the case of Aderholt VS.. Mckee re-
ported in the 65th n. c., reports. That"
said Mr.. Ransom. sis sufficient to show
the absurdity of the story"
