BOND BILL.
ecretary CarIisle's Views on the
Measure Pending in Congress.

ecretary CarIisle's Views on the
Measure Pending in Congress.
WASHINGTON, Dec. 27.-Secretary
Carlisle gave to a reporter this evening
his views on the bond measure now
pending in Congress.
Il am satisfied that there is only one
permanent remedy for our financial en-
barrassments, and that is legislation
providing for the retirement of the legal
tender notes. The bill reported by the
Committee on Ways and Means falls
short of the requirements of the situa-
ton, and its passage will not benefit
the situation. Our difficulties were pro-
duced and have been prolonged and ag-
graVated by the fear that, notWith-
standing all the efforts of the Admin
istration, we may be ultimately unable
to procure gold for the purpose of re-
deeming our notes, and consequently be
forced to a silver basis, and this fear
cannot be wholly removed until some
action is taken by Congress clearly in
dicating purpose to pay all our obliga-
tions in gold when demanded by the
holders.
About S16,OOO,O00 in interest could
nave Dttn SdNeu " the people Oh the
last issue Of bonds if Congress had con-
sented to make them expressly payable
in gold, instead of coin. This condition
is not at all improved by the pending
bill, which still requires all bonds to be
payable in coin,' as heretofore, and
confers no new authority except the
power to issue and sell per cent.
bonds, also payable in coin, after five
years, with interest payable in coin
semi-annually."
Speaking of the second section of the
| bill, which authorizes the issue of GER
tiffcates to meet deficiencies in the reve-
nue., Secretary Carlisle said: while
there is no necessity at the present time
for reserting to the exercise of the
power which that section confers, and
may not be in the future, the Secretary
Of the Treasury ought always to have
| the authority to issue or sell, or use in
the payment of expenses, short time
certificates or bonds of the character
described in the bill. Such authority
ought to have been conferred upon him
long time ago, and it ought to be made
permanent, instead of being limited to
S3O,00O0O0, as it is by this bill Except
as to this limitation, the second section
of the bill is a good one"

HAYWARD'S CONFESSION.
One Portion Heretofore Suppressed
Comes to Light.


CHICAGO, Dec. I'm the confession
of Harry Hayward one portion was
suppressed. Whatever doubt may rest
on the remainder of the curious confess
sion, there is none in this portion.
W. E. Hale is a leader at the bar of
Twin Cities. When he was a year ago
retained as counsel for Hayward the
community was loath to believe Hay
wards guilt, but Hale withdrew from
the case, though still retaining his in
terest in the criminal, who had been a
favorite with his family, and standing
by him publicly. 1t now transpires,
according to the confession, that this
man, who was asked to be a counselor
for Hayward, had been bereft of a
daughter and son-in-Iaw by the same
assassin who had secured the death
of Miss Cling
In his confession Hayward stated
that Miss Helen Hale was the only girl
he had ever loved. When she was about
to become the wife of DR.. Hayworth.

confession declares, hired a detective

and Harry Hayward, as a friend of

there.
The confession also states that the
death of the husband was caused by

confession does not tell. Much of the
story is corroborated by Goodsell. for
whose benefit the confession was made.

tired At 1920 William, the 20-year-old
son. heard someone moving about in
his fathers room on the second floor.
He went down stairs and found the
door of the room locked. Thinking his
father had returned from the opera
and had locked himself in the room,
William went up stairs and retired to
bed At midnight Mr.. and Mrs. Burden
and their daughter returned from the
opera and upon entering their house

missed was a $4,000 diamond neck
lace. But everything was gone. Not a
valuable article of jewelry had been
left to her except what she had worn

Jewels were worth 500, 600.

Committed Suicide at Ventura.
VENTURA, Dec. 27-The mystery
surrounding the suicide of H. L. Jones
at the Anacapa Hotel December 11th
will never be solved if the plans laid by
his friends to conceal his identity are
carried out.
The body was exhumed last night.
This morning an undertaken came down
from Santa Barbara to assist the Dep
uty Coroner in preparing the remains
for shipment Somebody in st. Louis
telegraphed $500 to cover the expense
of exhumation and forwarded instruc-
tions that no information should be
furnished to the newspapers.
To further conceal the identity of the
suicide the body will be shipped in the
name of the railroad agent in ST Louis
with no indication as to who the friends
are who have taken so much interest
in the matter.
The undertaken has been advised that
he will be paid for his trouble on con-
dition of maintaining absolute Sc
crecy. All the information which he
will furnish is that the man was
wealthy and prominent in social cir
cles in st Louis. For some reason his
friends desire to blind the newspapers
as to the true facts.

BANKER KIMBALL
Mystery Surrounding His Whereabouts

DEADWOOD Is. d., Dec. 27.-The
mystery surrounding the whereabouts
of Banker Glenn r. Kimball, who left
his home here September 7th while in a
state of mental ALTERATION, has at last
been cleared up.
On October 7th the body of a man was
found lying near the railroad track be-
tween Alliance and Reno Neb., with the
skull broken and a portion of the face
eaten away by field mice. He had
been murdered. From the description
given at the time Mrs. Kimball thought
it was the body of her husband, and
the conviction grew upon her until a
few days ago she took a Deadwood un-
dertaker with her to Alliance and had
the body exhumed. She returned to-
day positive that it was her husband.
She identified the peculiar shape of the
feet and ears, a large scar on the left
knee, a catarrhal affection of the nose.
and an impression of the mouth taken
by a dentist before he left, as also by
other marks.
Several hundred dollars had been
spent in searching for the body of the
banker, who was last heard of alive at
Tecumseh, Neb., September 24th.

1t Lies in the Control of the Govern
ment, and Not in the States.
SAN FRANCISCO, Dec. 27.-United
States District Judge Morrow to-day
rendered an important decision in the
case of Gee Hoop, a Chinaman who ar
rived in San Francisco from China on
September 16, 1885 He had papers
which showed that he had once been
naturaliZed by the courts of New Jer-
sey, but he was denied admission on the
ground that the courts had no right to
make a Mongolian a citizen. Hoops
attorney was asked for a writ of
habeas corpus, and Commissioner Hea-
cock took evidence in the case.
After carefully reviewing the case,
Heacock recommended that Gee Hoop
be remanded, "for the reason that there
was no law comforting the right of
naturalization upon Mongolians or ma
tives of China"
In this conclusion Judge Morrow said:
81 heartily agree. The matter of natu-
ralization is exclusively within the
control of the Government of the United
States and not of the States.''

BALTIMORE (Md), Dec 27.-The
most exciting fire that has occurred in
this city recently began early this
morning at the corner of Charles and
Baltimore streets, and before the
flames were extinguished $350,000 had
gone up in smoke.
The fire was discovered in the four
story iron building occupied by Oehm

lishments in the city The district
around Charles and Baltimore streets,
the heart of the city, is occupied by
massive wholesale and retail estab-
lishments.
The efforts of the ffremen were greatly

SEATTLE CWash.) Dec. 27.-There is
not much prospect of any abatement Of
the storm which has prevailed with
more or less fury both on land and
water over the northwest for several
days. Continued rains have resulted in
a great slide on the Great Northern road
thirteen miles this side of Everett to-
day, the landslide covering the track
about five feet deep for nearly seventy
five yards.
This, together with unusually heavy
SHOWS in the Cascades, has paralyZed
the telegraphic and railroad services,
and delayed the mails on to-day's over
land train.
a strong wind, with occasional hail,
has been sweeping over the sound most
all day, occasioning more or less trouble
to shipping.
Concerning the fate of the Miowera,
Captain Sorrenson of the schooner Com
peer, now in port, does not take very
hopeful view of the situation On the
23d and part of the 24th instant he was
sixty miles southwest of Cape F'lattery,
and on these days he only sighted one
vessel and one of the China liners out
ward bound. She was struggling with
terrific storms, and the wind blew al
most a hurricane. He states that he
never before experienced such severe
westerly winds as have prevailed
around the cape recently.

Northern Pacific steamship Victoria

She had strong westerly gales all the

ping men here that the MioWera is all
right that she had spent number Of
days towing the Strathnevis, had mails
and passengers to urge her forward on
her voyage, was close to a dangerous
shore in a gale, and that when she lost
sight of the Strathnevis and it was
thought that she was foundered, her
Captain considered the best course was
to put to sea and proceed on her voyage.
