PLAN TO GET GOLD.
Secretary Carlisle Adopts an Unusual Ex-
80 - Dedient.

Secretary Carlisle Adopts an Unusual Ex-
81, pedieht.
Washington. Nov. 25.-An important
order was on Saturday issued by the
treasury department, with the purpose
Of giving the banks and people through
out the country an opportunity to re-
plenish the gold reserve. The order re-
Nq,i1es subtreasurers to pay the express
charges both ways on deposits of gold
in exchange for notes. and also modi.
fics the existing regulations concern
ing under-weight and mutilated coins
Heretofore depositors of such coins
have been compelled to pay express
charges on the money, which was
treated us bullion. and to wait until
the minis had ascertained the exact
value thereof before they could get
their payment. Now the subtreasur-
ers will Immediately weigh such coins,
deduct four cents for each troy grair
Of shortage and promptly pay the de,
positors the full value thus ascertained
1t is the belief Of the treasury officials
that the result of this order will be an
simmediate and cordial addition to the
sgoNernment's store of gold by means
ofsdeposits from banks and individuals.
Secretary Carlisle, while in New York
last week was advised by prominent
bankers to remove all obstacles and ex-
pense which have prevented the ex-
change of gold for legal tender notes.
1t was the belief of. these bankers that
many banking institutions and a very
large number of individuals would,
through patriotic motives, make de-
posts of gold. These bankers and also
many business men told the secretary
the people were interested i'll mainten-
ance of the gold reserve; that the in
tegrity of the reserve was of great i'm
portance to the business and banking
community, and that if given an OPP
portunity, without cost to themselves
or vexations delays, the people would
gladly come to the rescue of the treas
ary in it's hour of need.
Secretary Carlisle was much inn
pressed by this argument, and on his
return to Washington satisfied himself
that he had authority under the laws,
and then laid the matter before the
president. Mr.. Cleveland at once recog-
nized the Importance of the plan and is
said to have expressed great confidence
in the willingness of the banks and of
private citizens in all parts of the coun-
try to come to the assistance of the gov
eminent in it's efforts to maintain the
golt reserve at the traditional minimum
of $1OO,0OO,OOO, which has the recogni-
ton of the statutes in the act of July
IL. 1852. The order was decided on at
Fridays cabinet meeting and was is
SIZED Saturday afternoon.

ARE TROOPS MOVING?
British Forces Are Reported
Marching on Venezuela.
Said to be Moving Through
Brazilian Territory.
THE REPORT DENIED.
English Foreign Office Says
THE REPORT DENIED.
Ministers at Washington Also
Discredit the Report.

New YORK, Oct IS. "A special to the
Herald from Buenos Ayres says: A tel
egram from Para. Brazil, has been re-
ceived at Rio Janeiro stating that an
armed British force is marching through
Brazilian territory. The objective point
of the body is that part of Venezuela
claimed by the British government The
column has already crossed the Tacutu
river.
LONDON. Oct 15-The foreign office
officials were questioned today by rep
resentative of the. Associated Press as TO
the truth of the report published in the
United States that an armed British force
is marching through Brazilian territory,
and that its objective point is that part of
Venezuela which is claimed by the Brit
ish government.
They said there was no truth in the
story that there is no British force there
and that there would be no object in
marching through that portion of Brazil
even if British force had been avail
able for the purpose outlined.
WAsHINGToN, Oct. 15-The report that
British soldiers had been landed in Brazil
and were proceeding TO disputed British
Venezuela territory, is discred-
tied by Sir Julian Pauncefote,
the British ambassador, by Signor Men
doCca, the Brazilian minister and Senior
Andrade, the Venezuelan minister, the
representatives OF the three countries
concerned.
1t is agreed by these officials that
move of such supreme importance would
be quickly communicated here and in
the absence of any such reports no cred
it is attached to it.
The status of the much debated Vene-
zuela and Nicaragua questions remains
unchanged SO far as the British officials
are informed.
Minister Andrade of Venezuela, said
that the report of force landing in
Brazil was self-evidently false, as it was
out of the question for troops to march
the great distance from the Brazil
ian coast to Venezuela If any
such landing was attempted it
could be made more easily in British
Guiana which is situated much nearer
the disputed territory.
Minister Mendonca of Brazil said that
the report that British soldiers were
crossing Brazil was manifestly vague,
inasmuch as Brazil was about the size
of the United States and it was like a
report that troops were "crossing Ameri-

FORT SCOTT, Oct. 15.-Cashier Colean,
of the State bank, who Saturday
confessed to having embezzed

accompanied by his wife and children.
He was so weak he had to be assisted to

Colean is believed to be penniless.
State Bank Commissioner Breidenthal IS

Mrs. Colean has surrendered her dia-

she possesses to the bank.
1t now appears that Colean's shortage
csnnot be less than $4,000.
Vice President Stewart this morning said
he did not think the bank would prose

by the PrOhibitionists.
Fear That They Will Have a
Legislative Majority.

IF PrOhibitionists Re-elect Him

Republicans Therefore Work

CHICAGO, Oct IA special to

says that it is stated on good Republican
authority that the Republican state cen
trail committee has completed poll of
the preferences of the Republican caadi-
dates for the legislature in the matter of
the resubmission of the prohibition
amendment and has found that MAORI
ty of them favor resubmission.
This situation has alarmed the Repub-
lican managers both within and without
the central committee who are
very anxiously working to further
the interests of Senator Allison
as a presidential candidate. They are
afraid that if the legislature which re-
elects Allison to the senate should go on
record as favoring prohibition it would
prejudice Allison as a candidate for
president in he eyes of the Republicans
of other states.
Under these circumstances a special
effort will be made to elect nti-prohibi-
tionists RTho have been nominated by
Republicans In several close counties, in
order to keep the Republican legislative
caucus from being too strongly domina-
ted by the prohibltionists.
Prohibition sIowa was never in the

there was voted on and carried by about
10000 majority. But the supreme court
declared it invalid on account of a tech

DRANK BLUING.

Mrs. Andrew Leonard Tries to Commit
Suicide and Nearly Succeeds.
Mrs. Andrew Leonard, who lives at 118
North Kansas avenue, tried to commit
suicide last evening by swallowing a
dose of bluing in which match heads
had been soaked. Her usband keeps
cider and cigar stand and about supper
time they had quarreled over some trivial
matter and Mrs. Leonard resolved to end
her life.
She went to her room, and locking the
door swallowed dose of some blue col
ored liquid in a saucer and lay down on
the bed. Her cousin, who had thought
her actions suspicious, had slipped
AROUND to the window and was peering
in when Mrs. Leonard swallowed the
poison.
Mr.. Leonard said that it was at least
three-quarters of an hour after Mrs.
Leonard swallowed the poison that DR..
Frankenberger was telephoned to come,
but gave no satisfactory reason why he
didn't telephone sooner. By the time
DR.. Franken berger reached the house
Mrs. Leonard was deathly sick, but a
strong emetic was administered which
resulted in violent vomiting and a
recovery. DR.. Franken berger said: There
is no question that had he been little
later the poison would have proved fatal
and that it was biuing in which match
heads had been soaked"
On coming out of her stupor Mrs.
Leonard was very much enraged and
cursed DR.. Frankenberger for saving her
from death.
This is the fourth attempt of Mrs.
Leonard to commit suicide. She was
about her work this morning, but refused
to talk of the matter.
Andrew Leonard, her husband, says:
"My wife and 1 quarreled some last
night, but | did not think much about it
afterwards. She is of a sensitive nature
and takes little things to heart. She
tried to end her life two or three times
before and maybe some time she will
succeed"

GROSS NEGLECT In A p. o.
PostOffice Departments Sends Charges
Against 173 Chicago Carriers.


Against 173 Chicago Carriers.
CHICAGO, Oct 15-A special to the
Times Herald from Washington saws the
mail which left Washington last night
carried 1T3 letters which will create an
earthquake in the Chicago postoffice
They were sent by the first assistant post
master general and are addressed to let
ter carriers in Chicago They notify 173
men that charges have been filed against
them sufficient to cause dismissal from
the service and they will be given ten
days to show cause why they should not
be removed
Derelictfons of the most serious nature
have been discovered among the letter
carriers. Even some subordinate officials
of the office havesbeen caught in the net.
News will come to Postmaster Hesing
and the carriers themselves like light
ming from clear sky. The state of af-
fairs disclosed in the Chicago office and
sub-stations has astonished the officers OF
the postoffice department in Washington.
The service has been found even worse
than it was in Philadelphia, where
wholesale cleaning out and reorganiza-
tion was necessary. For a period of
twenty eight days, beginning Septemb ber
+, large force of special secret agents
of the postotfice department conducted
systematic espionage of the Chicago let
ter carriers
When the report of the special agents
was in it was found that $40 car
riers had been reported The cases
of 173 were serious enough to de-
mand attention individually. 1t can not
be told until their explanations have
been made how many of these carriers
will be removed. 1t is safe to guess
however that fifty will be removed alto
gether; and probably fifty more will be
placed on the substitute list.
Others will be suspended from five to
twenty days according to the gravity of
their offenses, and the plausI bility of
their explanations.
The secrecy with which the whole in
vestigation has been managed is one of
its most noteworthy features Presuma-
bly, not single carrier knows that he
has been shadowed by secret agents.
Postmaster Hesing knows nothing about
it.
The whole undertaking was managed
from Washington and was the result of
long aud careful preparation. In order to
avoid any possibility of personal favorit-
ism or political partiality the carriers
were known to the secret service men
only by numbers. In the reports they
are mentioned by the numbers they
wore on their caps.
In passing upon the offenses with
which they are charged the same rule
will govern. The name of the offending
carrier will not be revealed to any one.
When the final dismissals are made there
will be no way to discover the cause in
any case, unless the carrier himself re-
veals it.
