reached here through diplomatic and pri-
vate sources, several weeks ago. that the
missionaries, after the recent massacres in
the interior of the province, had with their
families sought refuge at Foo Chow, which
is near the coast, and where the presence
of foreign men-of-war make them safe
from further violence. Ii they have re-
NAMED at Foo Chow, or rather, at Pagoda
anchorage, which is foreign settlement
only few miles removed, no danger can
happen to them.
If, however. in their zeal to begin again
their work of Outstanding the natives
they have returned to the interior OF the
province, the gravest apprehensions Will
be felt for their safety unless they receive
the protection of the European or Ameri-
can forces. 1t is surmised that the re-
bellion is the work of the "Vegetarians,
who were responsible for the assaults some
weeks ago upon the foreign missions.
The State Department is without advices
regarding the alleged latest phase OF the
Chinese situa ton in regard to refusal of
the Chinese Government to execute any OF
the men convicted of being connected with
the missionary massacre unless they are
assured that with the execution of these
men all demands will cease. According to
latest information, the Ku Cheng commits
sion was at work with its labors uncom-
pleted. and the investigation had not been
begun. No dispatches have been received
from Minister DENLY, but they are expected
this week and awaited with interest.

CAUGHT IN THE CABIN,
Six Women and a Child Per-
iShed in a Fire at
Sea.
During the Panic Several of Those
Imprisoned We're Burned
to a Crisp.

LONDON, Eng, Sept, 16.-The London
and Edinburgh Steamship Company's
steamer Iona plying between Lelth and
London, caught fire early this morning
while on her trip to Gravesend. The fire
started in her cabin. Five women and
one child, passengers. and the stewardess
were burned to death, and number of
others were badly burned or otherwise in
jured. The fire was extinguished by the
ships fire apparatus.
The manager of the London and Edin-
burgh Steamship Company was inter-
viewed, and made statement as follows
The steamer Iona left Leith Saturday
evening with 100 saloon passengers and
fifty second-class. The part of the boat
in which the second-class passengers slept
was used as saloon during the day and
at night was divided by partition into
sleeping compartments for women and
men.
At o'clock this (Monday) morning fire
was discovered in the ladies' compartment
on the port side. The flames spread so
rapidly that the crew was prevented from
rescuing all the passengers. The fire was
under control by o'clock, and then the
bodies of the victims were found. They
were SO badly burned that they were I'M
recognizable. The cabin on the starboard
side was only slightly injured.
During the progress of the flames the
widest excitement prevailed. The saloon
passengers-men, women and children
rushed on deck. Some were almost naked.
Women screamed and children cried, and
it was not until the flames were subdued
that they could be paciied.
The Iona is lying in the dock at Wap-
ping. She was inspected by representa-
tive of the United Press to-day. The
ladies' cabin was completely demolished.
Some of the killed appeared to have fallen
from their berths in their efforts to escape.
The bodies were found lying almost in
ashes on the floor. The fire originated in
the lamproom, which adjoins the cabin.

RETIRING THE GREENDACKS
1t Is Said That Tom Reed Is in
Accord With the Presi-
dent.
The Proposition Is to Redeem All
Paper Money in Interest
Bearing Bonds.

WASHINGTON, d. c., Sept. 16.-The
views expressed by Senator Gray in an
interview Saturday, favoring the retire
ment of greenbacks by their redemption
in bonds, are understood to accord entirely
with the idea of the administration.
The bankers and Eastern fnanciers gen.
orally have the same thing in view.
Therefore, when the proposition is recon-
mended by Cleveland, as it is understood
it will be, the division of the question will
probably not be on party lines.
1t is expected that Mr.. Reed and the
Eastern representatives, without distinc-
ton as to party, will advocate the CONVEX
sion of the Notwithstanding debt repre-
scented by greenbacks into interest bearing
bonds.
The preference of Understanding over
non-interest-be bearing debt is on account of
the fact that the latter is a demand obliga-
ton, payable in gold, while the other
leaves the hour of settlement indefinitely
in the future. The men who are expected
to oppose the retirement of greenbacks are
all anti-administration Democrats and
many of the Western Republicans.
Men representing districts in which
there are important banking interests will
probably to man vote for the PROPOSE
ton. 1t is not impossible that the
majority in the next Congress may be
induced to support the recommendations
of the President in this respect. If this
should prove true the suggestion would be
as to how far the opposition would carry
the fight.
The administration will have to go to
Congress with the confession that the
shortness of revenues now compels a re-
issue of both greenbacks and notes of 1890
independently of requirements of the law
as to the former and that their REDEEM ption
cannot come in the form of liquidation of
the debt.
A confession of this sort, involving the
inetficiency of the tariff law as a revenue
producer, must go far toward satisfying
the partisan spirit of the Republicans and
disposing to that which their constituents
favor, even if it is in accordance with the
recommendation of an opposition exec
u tive.
This, however, will not apply to Repub-
licans who are not influenced by the
banker sentiment and all silver men of
both parties Populists and those who
believe in greenbacks as currency will
stand in opposition. If it is true, as
believed, that Mr.. Reed is in
sympathy with the retirement of green
backs it is probable that the minority
could not prevent the passage of such a
measure in the House. But in the Senate
the majority i 5 apt to be the other way,
and even if it should prove otherwise the
minority could easily defeat the measure.

FLOW OF THE RESERVE,
Domestic Bankers May Supply
Gold to the Govern
ment Golfers.
Various Men OF Money Who Would
Readily Assist In Preventing
the Issue Of Bonds.

WASHINGTON, d. c., Sept. 16.-The
true treasury gold reserve stood at the
close of business to-day at $95, 248, 642. the
bond issue raised the reserve above the
$4,000 900 mark
Secretary Carlisle to-day declined to &C.
cept the tender of 500, 900 in gold from the
Associated Banks Of Springfield. ILL.,, as
the conditions imposed were unfavorable
to the Government. This particular lot of
gold is said to have been light.
PITTSBURG, Pa, Sept photographic
advices from Washington and New York
state that Pittsburg banks are going to
furnish the United States treasury with
81, 0O0, 900 in gold to help keep the reserve
fund above the 500, O0O, 900 mark.
What l saw in the papers is as far as
my knowledge of this matter goes, stated
William Montgomery of the Allegheny
National Bank this morning. "There is
always plenty OF gold on hand in the local
banks, and l do not believe there is any
question but that the Pittsburg bankers
could spare 81, 100000 to the Government
If it was wanted. An estimate, which do
not claim to be accurate, would give the
aggregate OF gold usually in the Pittsburg
banks at 100000, and it possibly may be
So, 000, 000."
President Given of the Farmers Deposit
Bank, who is on the Clearinghouse COM
mittee, was asked if the Clearinghouse
was going to do anything in regard to as
sisting the Government.
II know of no concerted action as yet
but believe there is willingness on the
part of some OF the banks to give the Gov
eminent some of their gold. l heard yes
terday that two banks had made offers to
this effect. Any kind of money is of course
good, and we would just as soon have pa

GOLD IN ONTARIO.
Rich Discoveries Made IN, Several North
era Districts.

Rich Discoveries Made in Several North
era Districts.
QUEBEC, ONTARIO, Sept. 16.-Official re-
ports of recent visit to the gold mining
districts of Ontario have Just been made by
William Hamilton Merritt, mining en-
gineer, of Toronto. He tells of the discov-
cry of gold-bearing veins in the Seine
River district and of the renewed sactiyity
in the mining and milling of gold ore in
the northern part of the Lake of the
Woods.
Merritt expresses his surprise at the
well-mineralized gold-bearing quartz veins
that have been developed. He notes that
in some of the Ontario goldields it is not
only in the mountainous districts where
the disturbing influence has been pro-
digious that auriferous veins have been
disclosed, but in comparatively fat
country areas of ancient volcanic disturb
ance exist, in which network of veins
containing coarse gold is found.
One of these areas which is attracting
thousands of miners is near that part of
the Seine River system which widens into
Shoal Lake. Between Shoal Lake and
Bad Vermilion Lake an elongated mass of
granite has a splendid example OF a we'll
mineralized auriferous vein system. Some
OF the best ore tested at Mine Center went
as high as $115 and $96 per ton, free mill
ing, with concentrates which assayed over
$500 and $1100 per ton. The only capital
to speak of which so far has come into the
Seine district is from Duluth. In the dis
trict near Port Arthur, however, a mill of
five stamps has just started through the
enterprise of Port Arthur people. The
first run of the mill yielded forty-nine and
half ounces of gold from seventy tons of
ore in five days run. The country is
only beginning to be prospected and it's
geological features have not yet been
infinitely defined.

TO ENFORCE PENAL TIES,
CunboatS Hurriedly Sent tc
the Scene of Chinese
Disturbances.
There Seems to Be Another Pros
pect of Further Attacks Upon
Missionaries.

FOO CHOW, CHINA, Sept. 16.-In con-
sequence of the attitude of obstruction as
sumed by the Chinese officials toward the
progress OF the inquiry into the recent out
RACES at Ku Cheng, and their refusal to
carry out the sentences imposed by the ex-
aiming court upon the ringleaders in the
attacks upon the Christian missions at that
place, two gunboats have been ordered to
ascend the river to demand the enforce
ment of the penalties imposed. A rebel
lion has begun in the province of Fe KEN,
and the local o e. Gals instead of attempt
ing to suppress the rising have fed. a
force of imperial troops are on their way
to the scene to try to put down the insur-
rection.
WASHINGTON, D. c., Sept. 16.-The
chief interest attaching in Washington to
the dispatch from Foo Chow that re-
bellion has begun in the province of Fo-
KEN is as to the fate which awaits the
American and European missionaries in
that province, should any still remain in
the vicinity of Kus CheDg. Reports

Commander Walker to Cause an Imp orr
ant Test Suit.
INDIANAPOLIS, IND, Sept. 16.-Com-
mander-in- Chief Walker of the G. A. r.
announces that it is his wish that during
his term of office suit shall be prose-
cuted in the United States Court to settle
the question as to whether pension once
granted by the Government becomes a
vested right.
Commander Walker will meet the men,
bers of his council of administration here
soon after his return from Chickamauga
and Atlanta and the proposed litigation
will be discussed. 1t will be necessary for
the council to pick out the case of some
veteran whose pension has been arbitrarily
cut off by the department at Washington
and bring suit to have the pension re-
stored.
1t has been suggested by some that Gen.
eral Harrison should be retained to rep
resent the G. A. r. In case the suit is be-
gun it will be hurried to the Supreme
Court of the United States as soon as pos
sible.

STOCKTON, CAL, Sept. 16.-The San
Joaquin Valley Fair opened here to-day
very auspiciously. There were not a great
