on June 80. 1884,,
This apparent increase of 81, ,552, ,604 in
the public debt is owing to the increase

shows a net decrease in the public debt
OF s63.9
On July 81, 1894, the interest bearing
debt amounted to $685., ,042.690. an in
crease for the month of 500.

creased since maturity amounted to
$I,84C, $50, decrease of $l0,390. The
debt bearing no interest was $oI3,955,-
470, decrease OF $74 ,2l5.
The increase in certificates and treas
ury notes offset by an equal amount OF
cash in treasury was Increased from
$6l5 800, ,0S2, on June 20, 1895, to $6l6,-
972,397 on July 81, 1894. :,
The cash in the treasury is classified
as follows: Gold coin and bars, $l20,'
922, ,S36; silver, s5l3 S90,6S2; paper,
sl21, ,532, ,09l; bonds, ETC., Sl7 ,665, l56
making an aggregate OF $114'zoi 100
against which there are demand la
bilities amounting to s655 1876. Ala, leav-
ing cash balance of $ll90S5, ,352. oi

THEY have a social club in Chicago

They have a social club in Chicago
called the Fellowship club, and on re-
cent occasion they sat down to a dinner
which cost about So per plate. This
disposed of, they then went into an elec-
tion OF officers, to serve for the ensuing
year, and SO ballots were necessary be-
fore the officers were chosen. The rule
OF the club is that the officers elected
are elected to pay for the dinner ss we'll,
which accounts for the elongated char
acter OF the contest. To borrow the elo-
quent language Of the late Charles

Cholera In Germany.

WAsHINeroN, Aug. 1.-The marine
hospital bureau has received q report on
the cholera epidemic from it's special
officer stationed at Berlin, Surgeon Fair
fax Irwin, for the week ending July
18th. He wrote: The disease has pro-
gresaed materially since my last report,
especially in st. Petersburg, where it
has assumed alarming proportions. 1t
continues at Cronstadt. and 10 even re-
ported to be present in Finland, where it
was never before seen. In Galicia there
were many more cases laet week, and
new cases have appeared in Germany
and the Netherlands. In Belgium chol-
era still continues. especially in towns
along the Muse, which river is undoubt-

THE fact that tho house conferees on

The TACT that the house conferees on
the tariff bill have begun to show
frmness that gives no sign OF yielding
to the bulldozing OF the senate has had
the effect of causing the senate conferees
to lower their tone. But the whole
sountry is suffering so seriously from
the protracted suspense in this matter
Of tariff legislation that the highest
statesmanship now is that which will
relieve the situation by the passage Of
the measure in the best shape possible
With the least delay. Let the bill be
passed, and then the house can intro
duce supplementary measures to correct
the defects in the tariff and leave the
onus with the senate to defeat them. 1t
may be urged that it 10 too late in the
session to raise any new issues on the
tariff. The house, however, is largely
enough Democratic to make quick work

IT WAS hardly needed that Japan
should have formally declared war
against China. She had done that
already in actions louder and more po-
tent than words. Yet the formality has
been observed, and the nations will take
note. So far Japan has shown that in
naval warfare she is greatly superior to
China. When it comes to operations by
land she has yet to signalize her superb
ority over the Chinese. Doubtless the
latter can place greater armies in the
field, but whether they will prove as
efficient soldiers has yet to be deter
mined. The Japanese will perhaps
make up for psucity of numbers in the
intelligence Of discipline and superiority
OF military conduct and art.

holding any Office Of trust for the term
Of three years from August 18th, when

ing the Minneapolis to be doeked and
examined, after grounding on her final
trip and before accepting her, was veri-
fed by the result, as reported to the
navy department today. 1t was found
that the vessel had received dent in
her keel and bilge plates about two feet
long and three inches deep, and that the
center propeller has rough edges, as
though it had been struck by some Esrd
object. AS the damage was received
while the ship was in the hands of the
contractors, they proceeded at once with
the work of repairing, which will not
take long nor be expensive.

SIZE FOR DAMAGES.

in relation to saloon, which Is a bu5i
