BATTLE OF FALLING WATERS.
"a UeteraR's story.)
By JOHN b. KEIcHUN.

1t Is thirty long years and more ago.
We eamped in the light Of the orange glow,
On virgnia's soil in sight OF our foes,
And dimly the light Of cur campfire ross--
And we watched at Falling Waters
The wind blew freshly DER the clover farms,
As all that night we had rest on our arms;
Morn came and we knew ere set of the sun
The battle nearing would be lost or won
On the field Of Falling Waters.
We shudder'd not but firmly we stood,
As the Kissing foe came down like food;
And we braved the storm of this lsaden rain.
And soon in our path lay the enemy slain
When We charged at Falling Waters.
We pressed them back ward with bay'net and shea
And fierce grew the fight. but We wavsrd nosi
BY the noontide sun we put them 70 rous
Obi never sgain did their banners aous
Der freemen at Falling Waters
Ayel We fought and bIed-our work is donsi
We wear decorations our valor won;
But year by year the old veterans fall.
And soon in vain shall our country call
For soldiers of Falling Waters.

TONS OF GOLD DUMPED.
Two Millions More Paid In by
the Belmont = Morgan
Syndicate.
For the Third Time the Wall-Street
Magnates Propped the Ebb-
ing Reserve.

WASHINGTON, D. c., Aug. 20.-The
treasury gold reserve stood at the close of
business to-day, with the Withdrawals and
deposits taken into account, at SOL, ST., 14S.
The Withdrawals of gold reported to the
treasury to-day We're: At New York,
August 10, $1,000 at New York, August
20, 81, 600; total, 81, $50 900.
There was deposited at New York to-day
by the acknowledgment syndicate in gold
$200O.000 The telegram announcing the
Withdrawals arrived at the treasury about
8 P. NJ. 1t came from Assistant United
States Treasurer Jordan and occasioned
much speculation as to whether or not the
syndicate would permit the gold reserve to
fall below 500, 100000. Unless deposit of
the syndicate was made, the Withdrawals
announced would carry it below the mark.
About 8 AS o'clock a welcome telegram
from Mr.. Jordan stated that a 81, 1000, 600
deposit of gold coin had been made by the
syndicate and the gold reserve was still
intact.
This was the third time that the syndi-
cate had come to the rescue of the gold
reserve within the past few weeks. In all
it has deposite1 in excess OF it's bond
stipulation $7,00O0C0 in gold coin, or
nearly fourteen tons of the yellow metal.
Since July 13, when the present gold
export movement began. the treasury has
lost in gold coin taken for export,
$13, 1876, 900.

GETS A NEW CoMmLssIoN.
Ransom to Remain as Minister ia
He4ic0.

MeGicO.
NEW YORK, n. Y, Aug. 20.-A Wash
ington special says: 1t is believed that
Ransom's new commission as Minister to
Mexico will recah the State Department
in the next mail from Gray Gables.
There have been intimations for the past
few days that the President may accept
the plea of i'll health that Ransom has
put forward for his continued absence
from his post as sufficient reason for his
refusal to reappoint him, but it is stated
with positiveness at the State Department
that Ransom will be appointed to succeed
himself. 1t was with this understanding
of the matter, it is said, that the Senator
left Washington only a few days ago and
went to Blowing Rock. n. @.
1t leaks out that for some months
Mexican officials have been aware of the
cloud upon the title of Ransom to the
place he occupied, and while they looked
on the situation as somewhat anomalous,
it was not within their authority to Ques-
ton the credentials through which he
was accredited to them as the represen-
tative of this Government. There will be
no questioning of his past acts, however,
as he was Minister de facto, and his official
acts were accepted by both Governments
There will likewise be no trouble about
next Congress will be called upon to do
will be to pass a law making good to Mr..
Ransom or the disbursing officer the
amount that has been paid him and
which may accrue between the time when
his accounts were held up and when
his legal appointment shall have been
made.

NOT PERMITTED TO MARRY
So Milton G. Merrill Com
mitted Suicide by Turning
on the Gas.
His Invalid Wife Had Secured an
Injunction to Prevent Him
Wedding Another.

CHICAGO, ILL, Aug. 20.-Milton G..
Merrill, who was night yardmaster on the
Burlington Railroad in this city, commit
ted suicide at his residence last night,
bringing to a tragic climax a most peculiar
case. His wife Minnie, who has been an
invalid since she received stroke of paral-
ysis last January, petitioned Judge Chef
lain yesterday to enjoin Merrill from
carrying out his oft-expressed intention
of marrying Mrs. Mary Beetich, who con-
ducts saloon at 661 Halstead street. At
the same time Mrs. MerrilPs attorney
filed bill for divorce. The court issued a
temporary restraining order, which is the
first one of the kind known to lawyers
here.
Mrs. Merrill alleged in her petition that
she married Merrill in 1878. and that he
had destroyed the certificate, but his
daughter, Mrs. F. II. Richards, says her
father told her yesterday he had merely
secreted the document in the house at 1400
Lexington avenue. Last Sunday Merrill
brought Mrs. Beetich to his home, and in
the presence of his wife and mother-in-
law said he had never been legally married
to Mrs Merrill, and that he was going to
marry the saloon-keeper. This scene
brought on the legal proceedings. When
Merrill heard of the injunction he re-
turned home after starting to work. He
said he was too disheartened to attend to
his duties, and remarked to Mrs. Richards
that he wished he had never met Mrs.
Beetich, as he feared she would kill him.
He retired to his room soon after and
turned on the gas. In the morning he was
found dead. Mrs. Merrill was Frustrated
with grief when she heard of his death.
~ believe my father was not in his right
mind" said Mrs. Richards to-day. "Early
this year his mother died. Soon after that
a sister, and later two of his sons, Marley
and Milton, % and % years old, died. Mar
key died two weeks ago in Cincinnati
hospital, and father arrived only two days
ago from attending the funeral there. 1
suppose all this trouble was more than he
could bear"

Primaries Indicate That He May Defeat
Hastings.
PHILADELPHIA, Pa, Aug. 20.-The
Republican county primaries were held
here tonight. The whole interest CEN
tered in the election of delegates to the
State convention and the results OF to-
nights primaries will in all probability de-
eide the winner in the tactional fight now
raging in the Republican ranks in Penn
sylvania between Senator Quay and Sena-
tor Hastings and the Republican leaders OF
Philadelphia and Pittsburg.
The battle tonight resulted in victory
for Senator Quay. The opposition has
conceded but ten delegates from Philadel-
phia, but tonight he won seventeen, and
seven are in the doubtful column.
With the gaining of seventeen delegates
from Philadelphia Mr. Quay seems to have
won his fight against his opponents in the
State and is probably assured OF election
as chairman of the State committee.
