ANOTHER BOND ISSUE Likely.
Heavv Gold Withdrawals Expected
During the Next Two Months.

WASHINGTON, Dec. 9.-The state
ment is made by persons who are
among those best qualified TO Judge,
that in the absence OF legislation to re-
lieve the financial situation another
bond issue is altogether probable
within the next few months ut the
furtherest. The present condition Of
the exchange market and the CONNER
cial situation generally, it is said, point
Enthusiastically to further large with
drawals of gold, and unless something
is done TO prevent the usual heavy ex-
ports during January and February,
which, for the last two years, have
forced the issue of bonds to recoup the
depleted gold reserve, a similar situa-
ton will confront the treasury before
the new year is far advanced.
The available cash balance in the
treasury to-day. including the reserve,
is approximately $175, 100000, and as
the government has realized from ITS
three bond issues about $180,000,0O0, 1t
appears that but for these issues the
government would now be without~one
dollar in the treasury and in addition
would have outstanding obligations
amounting to about $6.600,00. In the
meantime the excess OF expenditures
over receipts amount 10 about $780,
000 600.
The exports OF gold during the last
four months have been as follows:
August, $i6.6G7, 900; September, ST.
424 1000: October. S2,t65,000; Noyem-
Der. SIC. .000. 800: so far during Decem-
ber. $3.54o.000; making total OF S55,-
10000 So far this calendar year the
exports of gold amount to about S9o,-
5000. In 1894, the exports amounted
to S10f $40 ,924. From the best informa-
tion obtainable it is believed that the
present month will show surplus OF
at least 81 900 900, which will leave the
deficit of the fiscal year to January !,
about $15,0G0,00
II is expected that this amount VIII
not be materially increased during the
remaining months of the fiscal year.

rs HARRY HAYwARD INSANE
His Counsel Asks he Cove uoF 10 sta,
His Execution

MINNEAPOLIS, Mimi, Dee. 9.-John
Day Smith, who was associate counsel
for Harry Hayward in the trial, has
forwarded to Governor Clough this
morning last appeal. The attorney
asserts strongly his belief that Hay
ward is insane, and that it would be
a crime to hang him. He asks the
governor to stay the execution until
he can appoint a commission to look
into the prisoners condition. There
is little likelihood that the request
will be granted.
Hayward passed a wild night of it.
He is either rapidly becoming insane
or is feigning such a condition. About
3 o'clock this morning he got from his
pallet and shouted to his death-watch
that Jesus Christ was i'm one corner of
his cell and satan in the other. He
raved frightfully and declared that he
was afraid of neither. Then he began
to throw imaginary intruders out of
his cell. 1t was daylight before he
quoted down. This morning he de-
clared that he would write a history
of the past ten years Of his life. telling
everything without reserve. His eou-
sin, Ernest Coodsell, would arrive to-
day from Chicago, ne said. TO take
charge of the publication. He would
dictate the matter to some one to-mor-
row.
The carpenters are hard at work on
the gallows, and the ciatter of the
hammers easily penetrate to Harry,
cell At the first sound he said TO his
watch, with that horrid, mirthless
laugh of his, They are off"

THE REPUB ITAN CONVENTION.
The National Committee VIII To-day
Select the Time aud Place.

WASHINGTON, Dec 9.-The Ma
tional Republican committee will meet
tomorrow at the Arlington Hotel to
select the time and place for holding
the National convention next wear. AS
to the time the COMMITTEES seems to be
pretty well agreed that it should be
held sometime in June, although there
are some advocates Of very late con-
vention and short. sharp campaign.
The place at which the convention
will be held is the subject of a hard.
but good natured struggle, Each rival
city has taken headquarters at the
hotel and is being doomed with great
diligence Each offers to pay OF the
debts of the National committee and
besides offers Il separate and superior
set OF qualifications and advantages,
sentimental, material and ge6graphi-
cal.The question of candidates does not
appear 70 enter into the question of
the choice of the convention city and
the Republican politicians who swarm
about the corridors SAY that the com
mittee will content itself with select
ing the place for the. convention and
allow the convention to select the can
didate. Among those present are
some of the most distinguished and
powerful leaders Of the Republican
party.
An attempt was made to give the
cities hearing to-day. but many Of
the committeeman were absent and it
was decided finally to postpone the
hearing until tomorrow morning at
10 O'Clock, when each candidate will
be given am hour to present her
claims. The question of the basis of
representation which will come before
the committee will be referred proba-
bly, to the convention for settlement.
The leaders, as a rule, claim that it
would be folly to discourage the South
ern Republicans by reducing their ba-
sis of representation Just as they are
beginning 10 vindicate their prediction
that the solid South will tear away
from her old allegiance and the Demo
cratic party.
Committeeman H. c. Kerans said to-
night that his hope that St. Louis
would secure the convention had
grown into absolute confidence The
other cities seeking the convention are
Chicago, Pittsburg, New York and San
Francisco.
An effort was made to secure a meet
ing of the executive committee to-
night, but a quorum was not secured.
They decided to take up no business
beyond the framing OF a telegram to
Governor-elect Bradley, Of Kentucky,
congratulating him upon his election,
and TO present it to the full committee
tomorrow

FIGHT eoR tHE INCOME TAX
It's Friends Now Rely an an amend-
ment 10 the Constitution.

WASHINGTON, Dec. 9.-Represen-
tatiye Hall, of Missouri, who was one
of the most active advocates OF the IN
come-tax feature of the Wilson tariff
bill. is determined not to abandon the
fight for an income tax law. As re-
suit of careful inquiry into the sub
iect, an amendment to the Constitution
has been prepared and introduced IN
the House by Mr.. Hall. IL is to be
known as the sixteenth amendment,
and is as follows:
"All taxes, as wen as duties, imposts
and excises, shall be uniform through
out the United States; provided that
all capitation taxes shall, and any other
tax may, be apportioned among the
several States according to their re-
spective numbers, counting the whole
number of persons in each State, ex-
cluding Indians not taxed"
Such an amendment would remove
from clause 2 of section and clause A
of section of article j of the Constitu-
ton the inhibition against the imposi-
tion of direct taxes" unless levied ac-
cording to the population in the re-
spective States, the Supreme Court
having held that the income tax was a
direct tax.
This amentment," says Mr.. Hall,
"leaves the construction of the uni
formity clause of the Constitution still
open for consideration, but after con-
sultation with some of the most emf
nent lawyers connected with the adj
ministration, / do not believe there will
be any difficulty in regard to that in
the future, and it seems unwise to at
temut ANYTHING more than to get rid
of the antiguated and impolitic direct
tax clause upon which the Supreme
Court hung it's decision"

(FrOnt The Boston Hcrdtd.l
Every person who works around a fire
can save themselves much suffering by
keeping at hand q good remedy for scalds and
burng. When such accidents happen the
chances are that something is applied that
had better been left OF. A person will oiten
onDly cold water 70 a burn and suffer ten
f5Id in consequences. Then there are many
remedies recommended for burns and scalda
that only give temporary relief; they &c
moi prevent thcin1ammation, blisterlng AND
soreness that follow a burn, and which often

possibly be recommended than Perry DAVIS
Pain-Killer. This good old speclhc' with
its record of half q century, has no equal,
and il is doubtful if it ever will have. True,
when first applied il will bring the tears 70
your eyes for q moment, but atter That the
fire leaves, the pain stops, and the trouols
