ALL DARK AHEAD.
Treasury Officials Bewildered
Over the FinancialConditions.
Never Has There Been So Much
Uncertainty.
SYNDICATE DESERTS.
Says 1t Isn't Obligated to Pro-
tect Reserve.

WASHINGTON, Sept. IA Never before
in the history of the country say the
treasury officials has the financial condi-
ton contained SO many contradictory ele-
ments and never before have the Off
Gals been unable to give an intelli-
gent forecast of what was likely to
result from the next conditions. At
this time, they add, everything seems
going counter to the general expecta-
tions. Several months ago it was
stated that the supply of whisky with
drawn from bond just before the an
ticipated increase of the internal rev.
enue tax was about exhausted, and
that the next few weeks would see a
material increase in the revenues
from that source.
But the receipts have fallen far be-
low expectations, with no prospect of
a n advance.
The total amount of expectations
of gold during the last twenty months
is unprecedented. Since January l of
last year the gold coin exported from
the United States aggregated about
$3.50, 2s4, 300, while the importatio
during the same period amount to
only $48, sI3, 500, which leaves the ex-
cess of exports over imports about
$780, 7O 500

CROKER ON CLEVELAND.

He Thinks Grover Could Be Elected for
a Third Term.
LONDON, Sept. Ii have almost
forgotten New York politics. said
Richard Croker to a reporter SIT is
a purely domestic matter which has
induced me to return to New York. I
may be back in time for the Man
chester November handicap, and L
shall certainly eat my Christmas din
ner in London
''What do you think about a third
term for Mr.. Cleveland?" Mr. Croker
was asked.
"Cleveland and third term, Ell? I
am afraid I cannot give you any direct
answer as to whether l shall support
him or not. If he received the Demo
cratic nomination of course l should
support him, but whether [ should as
sist in obtaining the nomination for
him is a matter which l have not de-
cided and do not care to decide or wish
to discuss.
II understand that business looks
bright across the water, which makes
me think that Cleveland or any other
Democrat-but Cleveland, in partic-
ular-if he be nominated, will be
elected with rush CIeveland's out
spoken attitude against the silver
men will do him good all over the
country. The great business interests
of the United States can only stand
firm on gold basis, and gold must be
an inviolate plank in the Democratic
platform

BOND SYNDICATE STATEMENT.
Its Contract With the Government Expired
in June-Not Obligated Now.

Its Contract With the Government Expired
in June-NOt Obligated Now.
NEW YORK, Sept. 14.-The bond syn
dlcate has authorized the following
statement: ''Tne impression has been
general that the mem bers of the bond
syndicate entered into an agreement
with the United States treasury to
maintain the 500, 900, 900 reserve until
October l prox., and that upon that
date said obligation will cease. Such
is not the case.
"The bond syndicate fulfilled all its
obligations to the government in June
last, and has not since been bound in
any way to the treasury. 1t is true, it
has from time to time since last June
paid over various sums in gold coin to
the treasury, which have sufficed to
maintain the reserve, but it has done
SO volun tarily, and will continue to do
so in the same spirit and for the same
motive.
$50 far as October is concerned, it
has no relation to the action of the
syndicate, and it will continue to de-
post gold until November 1, and De-
and if existing conditions make it
feasible to do SO. But neither the
bond syndicate nor anyone else can
con troll the elements. But the idea
that its relations to the treasury stu
alton will be any different on or after
October l than they are now and have
been all along, is erroneous and should
be corrected

SAN Francisco, Sept. IA private
letter which came on the steamer Aus

The Olympia is bound for China and

remain at Honolulu for some time, ow-
ing to the fact that it may be deemed
unsafe to take coal there.

In Life's Decline

Infrmities beset us to which our
youth and maturity were strangers
Weakness of the loins, rheumatic
ailments, dyspepsia, loss of appe-
cite and unquiet sleep, are among
these. AS a means of counteract-
ing the infrmaties of age, Hostel
ters Stomach Bitters is unrivalled.
1t quickens and enriches the impov-
erished circulation, begets hearty
appetite and youthfulrelish for the
food, and enables the stomach to
digest 1T. 1t soothes and. invlgor-
ates the nervous system and checks
a tendency to rheumatism. Its
quieting action upon thegreat sym
pathetic nerve, which connects the
stomach with the brain, results in
the speedy departure of the rest
lessness by night and disquietude by
day, which are the reflected mani
festations of dyspepsia. 1t is a
most effectual antidote to the pois-
on of malaria, gives a healthful i'm
petus to the action of the kidneys
and bladder, and is an admirable
means of resuscitating vigor when
impaired by overwork or other
causes.

Suspected of Double Murder.

BROOKLYN Feb. 22.-The police are al
most certain that they have cleared up the
mystery surrounding tn deaths of Henry
Knoope and John Semis, the two young
men who were found dead in bed last Sun.
day morning in Miller's hotel, on Broad.
way, and who were at first thought to
have been asphyxiated by escaping gas.
Yesterday John Bohamann,a young brick
layer, was arrested i'm Hubnken, and the
police say their circumstantial evidence
against him is very strong. He was a
chum of the two men, who visited him
freely in his rooms, and was aware of the
fact that they had considerable money.
Bohamann has been out of employment
for some time but the police found $40
concealed under the carpet in his room.
