WASHINGTON. Jan. 25.-The secretary
of the treasury has authorized for sale
gold bars for export on the payment OF
premium of g of per cent to cover the
cost Of manufacture and transportation,
and this morning 81 900, 600 was taken
on these terms. There were withdrawn
$3,SOO,OO0 coin and 100000 additional
was engaged for export tomorrow, max
ing up at noon Sc, 100000. This leaves
the gold reserve $5S, 1924 ,428, and the
amount of gold coin on hand above the
amount of outstanding gold certificates,
$lO,912, ,2SO. Treasury officials, however,
do not regard the amount of coin re-
eeived on deposit for certificates as sa-
cred to their redemption, but will con-
tinue to pay out gold on demand for
legal tender. It is deemed amply suffi-
eient. There is enough gold in either
coin or bars to meet the demand on the
gold certificate. While the situation is
regarded as very trying one, there is no
thought of anything SO serious as to in
VOlve the credit of the government,
which the secretary will fully maintain
at all hazards

HORSES FOR UNCLE SAM.
Animals for Cavalry Service Obtained
Very Cheaply.

Animals for Cavalry Service Obtained
Very Cheaply.
The government has been picking up
horses for the cavalry and artillery
service very cheap in Washington and
Oregon this summer. The average
price paid was seventy-6ve dollars for
each animal, which is un0ommonly low
when the style of animal required for
the army is considered. A government
purchasing agent says: 'We inspected
recently at The Dalles, Pendleton,
Walla Walla, Ellensburgh and North
Yakima, and at each place found about
one hundred awaiting examination. I
selected such as met the requirements,
which are that they must be bays and
grays, fifteen hands high and upward,
and from four to eight years old.
These were passed upon by the gov
ernment officials, and, if found salts
factory, were accepted. They were
purchased at very low price, as the
sellers had but little money, and were
anxious to dispose of their stock. The
animals bought are of fine class, and
especially suited for cavalry purposes.
The lowness of the cost of horses this
year may be attributed to the small
demand, which is insignificant when
compared with the supply. Never be-
fore during the fifteen years or SO that
L have been inspecting horses for the
government have seen times so dull
in the stock regions, or the stock deal
ers so anxious to sell their animals at a
small price. The small demand is, of
course, due to the supplanting of horse
cars by electric and cable railways, the
shutting down of logging camps and
lumber industries on Puget sound, and
the general dullness of trade. In Port
land cars which would require thirty
five hundred horses are operated by
cable and electricity. Then the freight
cars operated on these steel railways
have shut out trucks and delivery
wagons on which large number OF
horses were Ucod.''

SOUTHERN PLANTATIONS.


Conducted Differently from the Way They
Were Managed Under the Old Regime.
Plantations at the present day are
conducted very differently from the
way they were managed under the old
regime The one have in mind com
prises something over five thousand
acres. The proprietor reserves about
two hundred and fifty acres for his
own planting and rents out the re-
mainder to small farmers, who give
him so many pounds or bales of cotton
for the rent, in proportion to the guam
tity and quality of the particular piece
of ground they cultivate, the size of
house and corn house of which they
have the use, etc. Much discrimina-
ton is required in the selection of ten
ants, for defective or Indifferent farm
ing will impoverish the land and en-
danger the landlords chances of col
lecting his rent. Most of the tenants
are negroes, forty families of that race
residing on the place.
Of these, says the Boston Transcript,
there are number who are excellent
farmers, thrifty, Industrious, prompt
in paying their obligations, and thor
oughly interested in everything that
pertains to their business, the. wife
er, in fact, because when her field work
is over she cooks the simple meals,
washes the clothes and patches the gar
ments for her numerous family by the
blaze of light wood torch, after the
members of the household are rolled in
their respective ''quilts'' and voyaging
in Sunderland. She does more than
this, for she raises chickens and tur-
keys, sometimes geese and ducks, using
the eggs for pocket money and to OBJ
tain the tobacco which is as necessary
to her comfort as to that of her hus-
band and sons.
The majority of the negroes go to
work in the early morning, with no
breakfast, or perhaps only a crust to
nibble on. When they come in, at
twelve o'clock, a stirabout is made "a
dish concected of corn meal, salt and
water, and looking very much as the
name suggests) of which all the family
partake, the elder members eating an
allowance" of bacon. Any luxuries
they may enjoy appear at the evening
meal, such as coffee, flour, etc. Usually,
however, their fare is of the simplest,
and cold water their beverage, except
on Sundays and high days, celebrated
usually with reference to some reli-
gious festival. Too much credit cannot
be given these Woodworking wives and
mothers, who hoe, rake, cook, wash,
chop, patch and mend, from morning
until night. Very often garments viii
be patched until scarcely trace of the
original foundation material can be
seen, and there are many cases where
| the wife is much the best cotton chop
| per" of the two, and her work far more
| desirable than her husbands.

PROPHET CLARK ARRIVES
He Has Had Visions of the Wrath
to Fall Upon the Country.
THREE WOMEN WITH HIM
They HaveJourneyed for Four Months
From North Cnrolina-The Presi-
dentPersonallyto Be eWarned-Gtves
Us IA Limit of Five Years In W hich
to Enjoy Life.

An aged, griZzled, weather beaten and
poorly clad colored man, giving his name
as Robert Clark and his occupation that of
aprophet, yesterday called atthe Fourth pre-
cinet station for the purpose of obtaining
information and incidentally to rest his
aching limbs and weary feet, as stated
exclusively in The Evening Times.
In company with Clark We're three col
ored women who had shared with him the
dangers, privations, trials and tribula-
tions of a four months pedestrian journey
from Goldsboro, n. c., to this city. The
quartette had started the middle of May
and just arrived yesterday.
To The Times reporter Mr.. Clark stated
that he had come to Washington especially
to proclaim the approaching dissolution
of all things. For twelve years he has
Travelled through the South, following
his avocation of prophet, aud has warned
thousands of the wrath to come. Late in
the spring. when his rheumatism some
what abated, the Spirit commanded him
to undertake pilgrimage to Washington
and warn the officials of this government
and city to prepare for the evil days that
will precede tile termination of time.
In pursuance of his divine instructions
Mr.. Clark set forth, accompanied by the
three sisters, who, with the same eye of
faith, saw the import of the awful warn
ing the prophet was commissioned to
proclaim.
A halt was made at each town along the
route travelled and Mr. Clark gave the in
habitants thereof timely notice of their
approaching destruction. In return for
this cheerful INTEL igence, sE.Hdry con-
necessary provisions were purchased.
Mr.. Clark stated that great good was ac
complished in Richmond, Rock Mount, and
especially Petersburg, among people of
all shades and conditions.
As the bearer of evil tidings approached
this city, Mr.. Clark considered it expedient
TO take Some small precautions against
pcnury, having been warned in dream of
the vagrancy laws, and hence had prepared
the following startling document, which
serves the double purpose of q pro-
nunciame nto and subscription list:
81 take this way of asking the people
to aid me in whatever contributions
they may feel able in travelling toward
Washington, D. c., 10 inform Grover Cleve-
land of the great disasters that will befall
this country in five years. Hail will fall
weighing seventy pounds, hard thunder
and Lightning and terrible cyclones will
come upon the earth. The Lord loveth a
cheerful giver.
The total amount thus far donated is
The morning times., 1895-09-14

S3.1o, of which some terrified or GENEROUS
citizen had contributed So.
Mr. Clark says that he will hold a series
of open air meetings here and warn people
to flee from the approaching destruction.
He expects to personally inform the Pres
ident OF the dangers ahead, if an opportun-
ity is afforded him. He hopes to soon be
reinforced by famous white prophet
named Morgan, who is now in Norfolk en-
route to Washington.
Mr. Morgan travels in a gospel wagon
drawn by two gray horses and has some
reputation, il not money.
With the assistance OF Mr.. Morgan Mr..
Clark believes they will be able to cause
a rattliDg of the dry bones in this city ana.
that the populace will have ample time
and sufficient notification in which to
erect bomb-proof cellars, with anti-cyclone
attachments, as protection against the p
Of seventy pound hailstones.

lishmcnt at Port Townsend, and at San
Diego.
At San Francisco there is complete
quarantine plant belonging to the Marine
Hospital Service, with medical officer in
command, fitted up with the most recent
appliances for disinfection.
With regard to immigrants coming into
the United States by way of British CO.
lrmbia on British vessels, an inquiry was
made some days ago of the chief quar-
antine officer OF Canada as to what spe-
cial precautions were being taken in British
Columbia.
He reported that special action was fore
stalled by the action of the steamship COM
panies, who, since July last, on account
of threatened detention of vessels, had re-
fused to bring any Japanese immigrants.
