Experience of . Passenger Train in New

New YORK. Sept 16-Again the
forest fires are raging in the vicinity of
Atlantic City, N. j., consuming every
thing IN their course. A vast amount
of valuable timber and game land has
been swept by flames. The fire began
burning Thursday afternoon at Reega.
Thursday night the train containing
the officials of the county court, which
is in session at Mays Landing, and q
large number of lawyers and litigants
dashed through an ocean of flames. and
the wonder is that no lives were lost.
Engineer Conpelly supposed that the
area of fire along the tracks was not
SO great as it turned out to be. and the
result was that every car on the train
was badly blistered, and the wood was
charred in places. On approach
ing the fire the passengers threw
themselves PROSTATE on the floor, and
remained in that position until they
were out ofdanger. The heat was some-
thing terrific and the black, pene-
tratiug smoke of the blazing pine, inn
pregnated strongly with pitch, was al
most sufocating.

United States State Department Receives
Draft for s1,4s0,oOO.
WASHINGTON, Sept. l7.-Aftcr more
than twenty years OF controversy,
which several times threatened to
bring about strained relations be-
tween Spain and the United States,
a draft for the amount of the in.
demnity demanded by this govern
ment for the confiscation of the
Cuban estates of Antonio Maxima
Mora, a naturalized American citizen,
was delivered Saturday by Senor Dep
ny de LONE, the Spanish minister,
to Mr.. Adee. the acting secretary Of
state. All that remains for the final
settlement of the claim will be the
arrangement of the assignments made
by Mr.. Mora to creditors and the
delivery to him of the residue.
There was NO ceremony about tho
eliminating act on the part of Spain.
Senor de LONE appeared at the state
department q few minutes after
noon and was Immediately shown into
the Office of Mr.. Adee. He handed to the
latter draft, signed by himself,
on the London financial agent of the
Spanish government for e295, ,412, 1es,
lid, the equivalent of s1.449, 900, or
1,SoO,o 900 Spanish pesos, and Mr.. Adee
delivered in return formal receipt
for the amount signed by himself
as acting secretary of states
The payment OF this claim ends q long in
ternattonal dispute between Spain and the
United States It arose from the occupation
by Spanish troops many years ago Of Cuban
plantation owned by the Moras, who were
American citizens. The troops did enormous
damage and the estate was held by the
Spanish authorities for o long time. Spain
long ago admitted the justice Of the claim
for damages. but always managed to
avoid payment Of it. Finally Secretary Olney
took it in hand and enforced its payment.
Tho greater part of the money was assigned
long ago to various Americans, among them
Nathaniel Paige, principal counsel for the
claimants, and Charles F. Flint, chief p-oprie-
tor Of the New York Times, who is said to
own one-half Of the entire claiml

THE GOLD RESERVE


Heavy Withdrawals for Shipment Abroad
Create m Uneasy Foeling.
NEW YORK, Sept. 16.-The chief topic
OF discussion in financial circles has
been the surprisingly heavy gold en-
gagements for shipment by Saturdays
steamers. The actual engagements
amounted to over $1,000. 600 The sud-
den engagement of $2,50O.000 in
gold by Lazzard Freres Il Co., who
have been accounted leading members
OF the government bond syndicate,
made general impression that the
syndicate which has stood between the
treasury and the. gold exporters had
been disrupted. j. Pierpont Morgan, the
head OF the syndicate, specifically de-
MED this. The syndicate says that all
its obligations to the government were
fulfilled in June last and that there is
no agreement to maintain the reserve
at the 500, 600, 600 mark until Oc-
tober, but that since last June they
have voluntarily put gold into the
treasury to maintain it's reserve and
would continue to do so even up to the
LIST of January if necessary, and if ex-
isting conditions make it feasible. Ex-
perts explain the steady drain upon
the treasury's gold by the backward
ness of the cotton and corn crops. In
few weeks, it is predicted, there will
be an abundance of commercial bills
in the market and the pressure will be
relieved.
WASHINGTON, Sept. 16-!The treas
ury general balance is $lS1, 06c, 900, of
which 500, 56s, 600 is in gold. The
deficit SO far this fiscal year is $14,-
0oO, 900, and with the revenues rum
ming at the present figures this
deficit by January next will
approximate so5. .OOO. 900 or $50, 600, 600.
The amount realized by the three bond
issues made within the past two years
exceeds by only $6,Ooo,0oO the total
treasury balance, SO without those
issues there would now be an
empty treasury. With full treasury
of course it follows that gold can al
ways be had, but with treasury de-
pleted by expenditures exceeding the
revenues, and with the tide of COM
mercial exchange against us, gold is
difficult to retain in the treasury.
