New ORLEANS, Sept. 9.-At IL o'clock
today the failure of the Union National

About Silver Dollars,

WASHINGTON, Sept. 9.-The treasury
officials are in daily receipt Of large
number of requests asking for silver dol
lars of this years coinage in exchange
for silver certificates Or other lawful
money. Many of these requests come
from persoE. who seem to doubt the
truth OF the monthly coinage statement,
while others ask for shipments Of 1896
dollars with the view of refuting state
ments that no silver dollars are now be-
ing coined. These requests have been
complied with as fact as received, as the
treasury officials desire to call special at
tention to the fact that when silver dol
lars are ordered in sums Of or multiples
of $500, they are shipped at the expense of
the government, but when smaller sums
are ordered shipments are made at the
expense of the person ordering. There
is now in the treasury $40, SOC, ,399 in free
silver. The number Of standard silver
dollars coined during last August is
shown by the official statement to have
been s2,265, 900; since February last, s11,-
212, ,412, and since November, 1893, S15,-
169,49l. The coinage value of the silver
bullion now on hand and on which the
mints are now ut work is s166, 745, 200,
and it is said to be altogether probable
that coinage will be continued at least
until the stock on hand OF standard dol.
lsrs of 1890 has been increased to about
S30,000,0 900, where it etood when the pres
ent administration came into office.

Servant Girls Paradise.

New YORK, Sept. ga unique half
holiday bill has just passed it's second
reading in the house of representatives
of New Zealand. According to this pro-
posal, every mistress is bound Ito turn
her servants out of her house from:3 to
10 p. m. on one day in every week. If
the servant is found employed at her
ordinary work during the statutory half
holiday the mistress will be liable to a
penalty of s25. If the servants
return to their homes for food during
the time mentioned the mistress must
wait on them, or be mulcted to the tune
Of s25; but it is provided that the mis-.
tress shall at the same time have the
right to refuse admittance to the ser.
wants during the seven hours prescribed
by law.
The result will be that a large
number Of servants in the towns, be-
ing country girls without friends
will be driven to parade the streets
during the compulsory holiday.

Results
TO VESSELS ON THE COAST
Quite a Number of Wrecks Are Re-
ported, But No Lives Known
to Be Lost.

BosToN, Sept. 9.-The first West India
hurricane of the season arrived off this
city today, after long but eventful
journey from the tropics. The storm
center tonight is somewhat southeast of
Nantucket, but 81 energetic is the dis
turbance that heavy northeast gale is
sweeping the entire New England coast
from Eastport to Block Island, while the
surf, aided by one of the highest tides of
the year, is threatening destruction to
hundreds of sea shore cottages and other
property along the water front. The
storm increased considerably in energy
as it came up the coast and made
itself known here at an early hour this
morning when the wind began piping
up from the eastward. By 10 o'clock, the
wind had attained the velocity Of a
gale and the authorities at Washington
ordered up hurricane signals all along
the coast. Rain began falling about
noon and has continued with but little
intermission ever since. Reports from
along the shore say that the storm is
severe one. The great height Of the tide
this noon warned many Of the cottagers
along the shore, and many abandoned
their summer homes this afternoon.
The wind in many instances drives the
sea high up on the beaches, wrecking
houses. The tide at Nantucket at mid
night is the highest seen for years. and
many Of the booths and bath houses
have been washed away. The harbor is
we'll filled with storm bound vessels. A
dispatch from Newport, r. l., states
that the Helen P. Whitten of Gloucester,
one Of the finest vessels Of the
fishing feet, missed the stays while try
ing to make the harbor this afternoon
and was blown on the rocks. The crew
of 13 men was taken off with breeches
buoys, while the schooner pounded her
bottom out and will undoubtedly prove
total loss. The wind along the Rhode
Island coast is blowing gale and the
sea is tremendous. A fishing schooner
went ashore off Point Judith late tonight
and was wrecked in the breakers, the
crew of nine men being rescued by a
passing steamer. The steamer Nantasket,
on her way from Boston to Nantasket,
was blown ashore on the flats at World's
End, Weir river, tonight. Help was
summoned from Boston and it is
thought she can be foated without
damage.
