DEMAND GOLD.

Sensational Circular Issued on Pension
Day at Topeka.
TOPEKA, Kan, Aug. 6.-This is pen
sion day and checks for several hun
dred thousand dollars are being paid
out by United States Commissioner
Click. The following circular was dis
tributed among the old soldiers of
Topeka and Sawnee county who visited
the United States pension Office to get
their quarterly allowance from the
government:
Comrades: Halt! You are entitled
to gold in payment of your checks:
Demand it. Do not accept deprecated
currency"
The pensioners are paid by checks,
which are cashed at the Topeka banks.
It is claimed the circular was prepared
by a bimetallist who wanted to show
that there is not enough gold in the
banks to pay the pensioners alone, aside
from doing the other business Of the
country. 1t has also been suggested
that this may be part Of the Sovereign

Trial of the Columbia Will Result in
Modifying Plans of Cruisers.
WASHINGTON, Aug. g. The expe-
rience OF the Columbia in her ocean
race against time has served to direct
the attention of the engineer officers to
the pressing need for a radical change
in the present system of arranging
coal bunkers. 1t has come to be the
practice of late years to subdivide the
interior of a ships hull, alotting spaces
for boilers, engines, sleeping quarters,
guns, ammunition hoists and magazines
and for every other purpose, and then
to fill in the vacant corners with coal
bunkers. The result is, as shown in
the case Of the Columbia, that
these bunkers are often almost
inaccessible, and the contents can be
reached by only one man at a time,
thus preventing the easy supply of the
bunkers with coal, and consequently
reducing the speed of the ship. This
is particularly true if the bunkers are
empty, as they are generally arranged
In groups communicating with one
another by small doors, land the fremen
must drag the coal through the bunk
ers to get it to the furnaces. It is the
opinion at the navy department that
perhaps the principle of subdividing
the ships into water tight compart-
ments has been carried so far as to i'm
pair their efficiency, and the need of
reform in the direction of simplifying
the bunker arrangement is well recog-

early in the season has become verify.
Conservative correspondents from the
different localities of the four states
furnish information Of the probable
yield per acre in their Immediate
vicinity after personal examination of
the fields and extensive inquiry among
the most reliable farmers. In many
instances the tale of the thresher,
whose accuracy cannot be doubted,
confirms the former estimates or even
exceeds them.
The reports from Minnesota indicate
that crops of all sorts are turning out
better than was expected in the few
localities where it was feared they had
been injured. The estimated yield per
acre varies, of course, in the different
sections OF the state, owing to differ
ent conditions of soil and amount of
rainfall.
An Average Yield
OF 20 bushels Of wheat to the acre is
reported from counties where 10 to IL
bushels would have gladdened farmers
in other seasons. In other counties
20 bushels of wheat per acre is conf
IDENTIFY expected, while As bushels of
oats and 40 bushels of barley is not un-
usual this year.
In some counties in South Dakota
where a considerable portion of the
crop has been threshed the returns
vary from 10 to 20 bushels per acre,
oats from 80 to so bushels. In other
counties the average yield of wheat is
II to IL bushels. In North Dakota in
the Red river valley the average wheat
crop is placed at from rs to 80 bushels.
In Richland county, near Wahpeton,
some barley which has been threshed
yielded IS bushels per acre.

AMERICANSALL SAFE
Only British Subjects Were
Killed at the VIVA Sang
Massacre.
VICTIMS, BRUTALLY TREATED.
Were Burned to Death or
Murdered With Spears
and Swords.

WASHINGTON, Aug. 6-The state de-
partment has received later intelligence
Of the killing Of the missionaries in
Ku Cheng, China. The dispatch, like
the one received Saturday, was from
Consul General Jernigan, and shows
that no Americans suffered, but that
the massacre of British subjects was
greater than at first reported. The
consul generals dispatch is as follows:
Americans safe. None hurt. Ten
British killed."
Although Mr.. Jernigen does not use
the word "missionaries" in his dis
patch, there is no doubt felt by the
officials of the state department that
he refers to them, and that his dis
patch is intended as supplementary to
that of Saturday. Much qualification
is expressed that the Americans have
not suffered, as the dispatch appears to
leave no doubt on that point. The ca.
blegram was at once forwarded to Sec
rotary Olney for his information.
instruction to DENLY.
Up to this time, so far as ascer-
tanned, no steps have been taken by the
navy department. toward sending any
naval force to the district where the
reported massacre has occurred. When
word came of the trouble Saturday the
customary instructions were sent to
Minister DENLY at Pekin to see that
American interests were protected. In
a response received the minister said
that small boats could reach the place
quick with marines.
Admiral Carpenter is in command of
the Chinese station, and he has
authority to use the vessels and men
under his command to assist in afford
ing any protection that may be re-
garded as necessary. The lack Of ships
of light draught that can penetrate the
shallow waters of the Chinese rivers is
a serious embarrassment to the author

RACES, published in The Times declares
that officials are at the bottom of all
anti-foreign feeling, and that the
Chinese people themselves are quite
friendly. The letter suggests that if
the powers tried a little benevolent re-
taliation it would prove an infallible
cure.
The Standard in it's editorial on the
Ku Cheng outrage, says: 1--WE must
speak to China in a manner which
cannot be misunderstood Not only
must the murderers be punished, but a
thorough example must be made of the
officials whose neglect permits such
