CELEBRATING VICTORY.
German Vets Celebrate Victor
les Americans
Present.

BERLIN. Sept. 4.-The emperor inaug-
urated the second day of the festivi
ties in celebration of the battles of
the Franco russian war. He person.
ally decorated with oak leaves the four
corps standards. Then he proceeded
to the parade ground to review the
German : American veterans. The
weather was beautiful. Private and
public buildings vel deliberately dec
Grated and crowds thronged the streets.
The German-American veterans we're
drawn up OF Tempelhof field to be
inspected by the emperor, their flags
flying as his majesty saluted and rode
down in front ofthem. Heasked each
man the place of his nativity, his regi-
ment, the battles in which he took
part, how long he had been in Amer
lea, and if he was prospecting in bust
ness there. The emperor showed he
gratiied that the veterans had not
forgotten the old home. The king of
Wurtemburg also saluted the veterans
from America, and expressed his
pleasure at seeing the Americans.
A short time afterwards, when EN-
peror William was riding past the
veterans, a member of the Berlin COM
mittee called for cheers for the en-
peror, who, gratifed at this exhibition
of friendliness, returned his thanks.
The emperor and empress were enthu-
siastically cheered along the route
from the palace to the parade ground.

White Settlers in Idaho Driven From
Their HOmes by Indians.
SPOKANE, Wash, Sept. 3-Trouble
has again broken out between Kalis-
pei Indians and settlers along the east
side of the Pend d'Grielle river in
Idaho over the disputed possession of
what the Indians claim is their reser-
vatlon but which is IN reality govern
ment land. A large delegation of
white settlers came to this city today
and state that they were driven off
from their farms by Indians who
threatened them with death if they
dared return.
The redskins forcibly took possess
sion of the homes and property of the
whites and told the latter that such was
their instructions from Indian Agent
Bubb. The settlers are preparing to
go back armed and in force and drive
the Indians out of the nelghborhood.
The Indians are ugly and the settlers
determined and serious.
WASHINGTON, d. c., Sept. 2.-Nothing
is known at the war department Of
the eviction of squatters from the
military reservations in the state of
Washington. Officials say that army
regulations require the commanding
general in each department to prevent
~trespassing, and it is presumed that
Gen. Otis, in command of the depart
ment Of the Columbia, has undertaken
to remove the squatter in Washington.
He has not, however, made any report
on the matter.

China Settles With France.

PARIS, Sept. 4.-Oficial advices re-
ceived here are to the effect that the
Chinese government has granted the
French missions in the province of
Sze-Chuen an indemnity of 100000
francs.
WASHINGTON, Sept. 4.-State depart
ment officials say China's agreement
to pay France 100000 francs indem-
nifty on account of the anti-missionary
riots at Sze-Chuen is due to the fact
that France decided to prosecute her
claim alone and independent of the
United states and Great Britain. The
French had large property interests in
that section and the sum agreed upon
is considered entirely reasonable COM
~pensation for the loss sustained. The
authorities here are satisfied with the
progress being made in the settlement
of the claims of this country and of
England, which are being pressed
Jointly, but say that the point has not
yet been reached in those negotiations
where the amount of indemnity could

The Treasury Department is Kept Busy
With 1t.
WASHINGTON, Sept. 4.-The furnish
ing of small notes and silver dollars to
meet the demand for money to move
the crops is likely to absorb the ener-
gies of the treasury department during
the next few weeks more than the de-
mand for gold. The demand is not SO
active this year as it sometimes has
been, and the banks are better
equipped than usual with small notes,
the surplus erv are larger and the
treasury itself has been making it's re-
cent shipments of money in notes of
IS and $40. There is q large supply
Of both these denominations in the
currency reserve vaults of the treasury.
The supply of notes of 81 and 81 is
not so large, but it can be increased if
necessary. There is little discrimina-
ton in the demands upon the treasury
as to the character of the paper cur-
rency sent out, SO long as it is in new
bills Of small denominations. The
usual policy Of the department is to
unload silver certificates SO far as pos
sible, to follow these by Sherman treas
ury notes, and to retain the old legal
tender notes until the last. The diff
fusion of small Sherman notes in dis
tant parts of the country prevents
their presentation in gold, and the
boarding of legal tenders cuts off In q
measure the excess of currency re-
deemable in gold at New York.

the assertion that the Chicago, Rock

for some time that the two roads had
been selling tickets to scalpers, IN
some cases as low "a $3.50 to Chicago,
and that tickets for San Francisco and
other points than Chicago have come
in for manipulation. 1t Is understood

the GOLD RESERVE.
1t Was Encr0ached Upon Again
But Was Protected =
BY the
SYNDICATE BEING ON DECK.
A Deposit Of $2,OOO,O 900 in the
Treasury Everything
Is Still Serene.

New YoRK, Sept. At was quite
evident that the Morgan Belmont bond
syndicate expected a large drain pn
the sub-treasury this week. At Che
opening of business the Farmers Loan
and Trust company deposited $780,
GOO in the sub-treasury. No explana-
ton of the deposit was made, but it is
generally known that it was for &C.
count of bond syndicate, and the be-
lief was confirmed later by washington
advicer.
This is the second financial institu-
ton to come to the aid of the syndi-
cate. The first was the American Ex-
change National bank, which deposited
$4,000 about a week ago. AT that
time it was said that a number of ma
tional banks and financial institutions
which had been members of the bond
syndicate had agreed to aid Morgan
and Belmont in their efforts to keep
to the spirit of the contract with gov
eminent to maintain the gold reserve
against exports in every way in their
power.
The deposit today, while it was not
included in the net gold reserve, will
it necessary maintain the reserve
above the s1O0,OOO,OW mark. The re-
serve today was a trifie in exec 80 of
Sl0l.0OO,0OO. The amount of gold for
shipment tomorrow is 100000.
Notwithstanding the continued gold
shipments. the feeling in financial
circles concerning the outlook was
serene and hopeful. The possibility
Of the slO0,OOO,0O0 reserve being en-
croached upon as soon as the bond
syndicate shall fail to pour gold into
the sub-treasury does not yet seem to
be considered. This is due to the ex-
pectation that the movement of crops
to Europe will begin before long and
cause a plentiful supply of CONNER
cial bills to be in circulation, and of
necessity lower the rate OF exchange
to a figure which would practically
prohibit the shipment of gold.
