Comptroller EckeIs Sees the Ne
cessity Of Home Products
A NEW GOVERNMENT L0A
The Financiers Who DO Not Consider It
Advisable in the Present State
of Affairs.

London. Sept. 16.-Hon. James E
Eckels. comptroller of the United States
treasury, made the following state
ment today on the request of a repre-
sentative of the Associated Press:
Being thus far away from New
York and not knowing the exact condi-
lions prevailing there, which are pro
ducing shipments of gold abroad. I
feel / can say nothing upon that sub
ject which will be of special benefit to
the public. Generally speaking these
gold shipments came about from the
fact that the American people are buy
ing a great deal abroad and not selling
sufficient of their own products to
equalize things, thus necessitating the
settlement of the balance due in gold
We maintain financial system which
makes the United States treasury a
general market of supply for all re-
curing gold; consequently more or
less embarrassment comes to the adj
ministration of the treasury depart
ment When these balances require to
be settled however the treasury has
always managed to maintain unques-
toned payment in gold of it's obliga-
tons, and always will do so. The sys-
tenn under which it is forced to operate
makes it sometimes expensive to de
so, but as long as representatives In
congress refuse to change that sys-
tenn, and as long as voters tolerate
them, the people have no right to COM
plain of the expense"
The Kootenai herald. [volume] (Kootenai, Idaho) 1891-1904, 1895-09-21
Cleveland Said to Be Preparing
for Trouble With Spain.
NAVAL BUREAU is ACTIVE
Chicago Paper Intimates That Hostilities
in the Near Future win Not
BE Surprising.

Chicago, Sept IA special to a local
paper from Washington says:
Information as to the recent secret
work in the navy department has leak
ed out and the result is sufficient to JUS
tify the belief that President Cleve-
land is meditating seriously the posi-
bility. of hostilities between Spain and
the United States in the near future.
Whether the dispatch is due to de-
sire to recognize The Cubans as bellig-
erents, or an intention to be in a posi-
ton to enforce the Mora claim is I'M
certain, but il can not be denied that
the state and navy departments have
been unusually active in the last few
weeks. Certain branches of the navy
department are now devoting their at
tention to the Cuban matter almost
exclusively.
Acting under recent orders from Sec
rotary Herbert some of the officers
have been working extra time, securing
data whose character is such to indi-
cate that the president and Secretary
Olney recognize the necessity of pre-
pairing for active intervention in the
affairs of Cuba. Exhaustive reports
have been prepared for Secretary Her
bert and the president on naval condi-
tons for a descent on Cuba. The ques-
ton of transports and the facilities for
landing troops on the island has been
looked into thoroughly and the results
filed with the secretary of the navy.
MORE CAUSE FOR GRIEVANCE.
Chicago, Sept. ia special to the
Daily News from Washington says:
Minister Taylor has been instructed to
demand from Spain protection for
American missionaries on the Caroline
| islands. This question is several years
old, commencing when our missionaries
were prosecuted and driven out of the
Caroline islands by natives. Spain eX-
ercises authority over the islands and
full reparation was demanded for the
outrages. Spain responded by the pay
ment of SIT 500 indemnity and promis-
| ing protection to missionaries in the
future, but by failing to stand by her
declaration Spain has made it impossi-
BILE for missionaries to safely return to
the islands. The present demand is
that the promise of protection be car
ried out in a satisfactory manner.
MORA CLAIM PAYMENT.
Washington, Sept. 1S.-Methods fol-
payment of the Mora claim has beer
definitely decided and a draft prepared
for transfer tomorrow. 1t will call fol
an equivalent in English pounds ster
ling of 81 ,499, 900, made payable to Sec
rotary of State Olney. The loss of S51,
900 from the amount of $1,500O0O orig
inally agreed upon is due to the differ
ence between the value of the Spanish
peso and the American gold dollar.
