THE NEW BOND ISSUE,

OF course the new government bonds
will 60 like hot cakes. Money is SO plenty
that safe three per cent. investment is
tempting, and 1t is evident that some of
those who bid for the bonds expect to see
them sell at 100 or 60. There will proba-
bly, not be half enough of them to 60
around. Indeed, it Is said that one bidder
has already offered to take the whole lot.
There may, however, be another issue
later, for 1t is understood that Secretary
Carlisle does not feel that his authority to
issue bonds to replenish the gold reserve is
limited by the amount now called for. The
suggestion has been made at the treasury
department that the gold fund may legally
be replenished by the amount of every dol
lar that has been paid, since the reaump-
ton of specie payments, for the redemption
of United States notes. These redemp.
tions, up to the close of the fiscal year
1892, had reached only $39, SIT .296, but
the distrust Of the Sherman law and the
big gold exports of 1893 carried the re-
demptions for that year to $55, ,319, 1876,
and there was an added amount of 81, ,105, :
ss4 during the quarter ending September
80 last, which is a part of the fiscal year
1894. These redemptions make the total
rsdemptions under the resumption act
$96. .961, ,705, and 1t is contended that au-
thority exists to replsnish the res srve by
this amount without any change of law.
Financiers will of course differ about the
wisdom of the details of the plan, but they
ere pretty we'll agreed that something of
the kind should be done. It is doubtful If
per cent. bond at lit is as desirable in
all respects as . 8 per cent. bond at par,
but action without more talk was needed

I'm a PIT, UNDRR A sTONE,

IN PIT, UNDER A STONE.
A wise man who had accurately observed
how things sometimes go In this world long
ago remarked: "Whoso diggsth pit shall
fall therein; and he that rolleth stone II
will return upon him" Sister Dominis'
great and good friend at Washington can
realize tho truth of this remark in these
days, for he is in the pit that he and sec-
rotary Gresham dug, and he is squirmine
under the stone that they rolled.
When the time was ripe for &C ion In
the Hawaiian matter President Harrison
carried ont . plan that had long bsen

statesmen and the people of tho country,
He negotiated . treaty with the newly
organized government of the Sandwich
Islands, and sent 1t to the senate only 6
ehort time before the end of his admins
tary Gresham set themselves at work to
dig pit for President Harrison and roll .

who had long, consistently and persistent'y }
pointed out the advantages of such . move
as was made by this country in the early
part Of last year. They set themselves al
work to discredit what had been done and
those who had done it. They sent 6

which might serve A. plausible
basis for the action they intended to take.

Those in this country who are objecting
to an income tax wouldn't like such q tax
as the Russian government Is about to i'm
pose any better. That government got
tired of the income tax idea soms time ago,
and 1t has now determined to put tax
upon the rental of occupied houses, to be
paid by the tenants. This impost will be
levied for the present only in 220 of the
chief towns in the empire, which will be
divided into four classes, according to the
estimated value of their house property.
The first class comprises the two capitals,
Moscow and st. Petersburg The second
includes ten towns, namely: Warsaw, Will
ma, Kszan, Kiev, Ktshinev, Odessa, Rigs,
Rostov- ths-Don, Saratov and Khsrkov.
There are 81 towns in the third class,
and 141 in the fourth. All of them
are situated in European Russia and
Poland, but the tax will be extended here
after to other parts of the empire. The
aggregate population of these 220 towns
il about $500. 900, but the rating is ar
ranged 30 as to spare the poorer classes.

the tax is 300 rubles $150) in the capitals,
and in the other three classes 225, $50,
and 120 rubles respectively. Arrange
ments have been made for Q fifth o.ass, In
which the lowest taxable rental will be 80
rubles, but ss yet no towns have been
selected for 1t. Besides the privileged
official and ecclesiastical classes, SCHOOLS,
hospitals, and places of business
(which last are already subject to
q similar impost), the following
houses are specially exempted: Work
mems barracks at manufactures, etc.,
and the lodging places of the poor,
small inns, night houses, etc. Moreover,
| any occupier changing his abode for one al
| . lower rental will be taxed ~ for the lat.
tar, If the change be made during the arsi
quarter of the year. The tax Is calculated
on rising scale, beginning at about II
per cent. ON the lowest taxable rental. and
reaching maximum of 10 per cent. or
rentals above 6. 900 rubles ga. .0O0); $500
