A STEAMER WANTED
AGENT or THE HAyTIAN REVOLT
TIoNIsTs
To Send Arms and Ammunition TO
uayti-Feeiing for md Against
President HyppoIito.

New York. Feb. 5.-A local paper
saya: An alleged agent OF the Haytian
revolutionary party has been in this
city aI4 Brooklyn for several days
past, secretly negotiating for the pur-
chnse of steamer. He avows his In
tention of sending n large quantity of
arms and ammunition to Hayti. II
Is known that this agent has made
overtures TO General Domingo Moman-
as, leader OF the revolution recently
abandoned In Venezuela. for chartering
the tramp steamer Classmate. on which
the general went from here TO Venezu-
ella. As the Classmate did not return
TO this city, and Is now supposed TO
be In n European port this project Is
said to have been abandoned.
Thus far the revolution In Hhyti
nralnst Hyppollte has received very
little support from the better class Of
people of that country. and no leader
OF the movement has as yet asserted
himself. There Is considerable sentl-
ment against the government OF Pres-
dent Hyppolite. however, and several
prominent agitators are anx'oualy

BRrGm1M FOR THE CABINET.
Farmers Want Him Made Secretary
of Agriculture.

Canton, o., Nov. 25--Maj Mckinley list
ened this evening to a formal request for
recognition by appointment to the cabinet
A committee Of the National Grange, an
organization Of farmers with a MEMBER
ship of 100000 urged Maj. Mckinley to ap-
point j. II. Brigham Of Ohio, secretary OF
agriculture.
The committee consisted Of o. II. Hale of
New York, George B. Horton of Michigan,
w. w. Miller, secretary Of the Ohio state
board Of agriculture, and Aaron Jones OF
Indiana, the latter of whom acted as
spokesman. MIR. Jones said: I'VE feel
that the vast agricultural interests OF the
country ought to be recognized by the ap-
pointment OF a practical farmer to the po-
sption OF Secretary Of Agriculture. Col
Brigham whom we recommend, Is sue
cessfui farmer, a strong man of affairs, a
good writer and good republican. He has
been for some years chairman OF the Ma
tional Grange and. he is favoraDly ana
widely known. We are not satisfied with
the course of the present administrator
toward the farmers. We hope the repup-
lican party will give us not only represen-
tatlve In the cabinet, but fair and gener-
ous treatment in its tariff bill"

He VIII Return to England to Man
age His Race Horses.
New York, Nov 25.--Richard Croker said
emphatically to-day that he did not intend
to resume personal direction of the affairs
of Tammany Hall. Soon after the holidays
he plans to return to England to look after
his racing stable there. The date of his
coming back is uncertain, but 1t is believed
that he will be here again some time in
September of next year.
To reporter of the Southern Associated
Press, who to-day called his attention to a
report that owing to business matters John
c. Sheehan, who has been the executive
head of Tammany Hall, was going to re-
tire, he said: II hope this is not so. 1t
would be unfortunate for the organization.
Mr. Sheehan has made a great record this
year for Tammany. The organization was
practically without any sufficient fund for
its campaign expenses. Yet Tammany
Hall polled for the democratic national
ticket over 135,000 votes To my mind, It
was wonderful showing"
Mr.. Croker was asked about the Sheehan-
Purroy row. He did not answer directly
He said There are no dissensions In
Tammany."
Mr.. Croker said that since his arrival
in this city, he had found no one who
does not believe that 1t will not be in
the interest of the city to elect a demo-
cratic ticket next year.
II cannot see," he said, that the people
Of the city have gained by electlng the So
called reform administration. There is
one thing that / am ready and willing to
admit, and that is that the streets have
been cleaned, and cleaned in good shape.
But a Tammany street cleaning commits
soner could and certainly would have
cleaned the streets quite as well IL he had
an appropriation OF 100000 to do this
work with. If Tammany had secured any
such appropriation for the cleaning Of the
streets the chamber of commerce would
have been Immediately called together to
adopt measures TO secure the indictment
OF the Tammany men and they would
have said that the money went into the
pockets of the Tammany officials.''

SUB TREASURY FOR SAVANNAH
col. LESTER TO RENEW THE
FIGHT FOR HIS BILL,

The Measure Now Before the Com
mittee ON Ways and NIeank-One
Vote in Its Favor in the Commit ttee
Lost by the Death of Mr.. Crisp--A
Cuban BeIligerency Bill Possible.
The COLONEL to Live I'm style This
Winter.
Washington. Nov. %.-Representative
Lester and Mrs. Lester arrived here this
morning and left Tonight for Fort Mon
roe, where they will remain until the
meeting of congress. Col Lester received
a cordial greeting from his numerous
friends here, who congratulated him upon
his recovery from the dangerous illness
that came so near depriving Savannah of
its present representative in congress. Up
on returning from Fort Monroe, Col. and
Mrs. Lester will locate In Sunderland
place. where they have leased residence
for the winter. 1t is situated In the most
fashionable section of the west end, near
the British embassy.
Col Lester says as soon as congress as
sembles he will make an effort to have
the committee on ways and means take up
and consider his bill providing for the
establishment of a sub-treasury at Savan-
nah. A majority of the committee are
disposed to favor the proposition, al
though Col. Lester loses one vote by the
death of Judge Crisp, whose place on the
committee is still vacant.
Speaking of the outlook for the coming
session, Col Lester says he does not ex-
pect to see much accomplished outside of
the annual appropriations bill. While he
does not look for any tariff legislation, he
says it would be wisdom on the part of
those in power If they could pass the Ding
ley bill and thus avoid a general revision
of the tariff after Mckinley is inaugurated.
He does not see any prospect for finan-
cial relief during the short session, and In
his opinion the republicans are at sea on
that subject.
As to the Cuban question. he does not an
ticipate any action on the part of the
President before congress assemblies, but
he would not be surprised to see a joint
resolution in favor of belligerency offered
in the House. Such a resolution he thinks
would pass the House without trouble, but
1t might be baked in the Senate. He says
the people of Georgia and Florida and all
along the Atlantic coast are in sympathy
with the Cubans and they would rejoice
at the passage OF such resolution.

Victoria. B. c.. Nov. 25.-The opening Of
the Bering Sea Claims Commission WITT
messed some preliminary fencing between
Hon. P. c. Peters, senior British counsel,
and Hon. Don NJ. Dickinson, senior coun-
sci for the United States.
Formal proceedings we're opened, and
Chandler p. Anderson Of New York was
chosen secretary. The rules OF procedure
were then taken up. Both sides agreed
to all but one, and here they we're diamet-
rically opposed. Mr.. Peters wanted the
Canadian claims dealt with singly, but
to this Mr.. Dickinson strongly objected,
arguing that the British sealers should
put in all their claims and then the United
States authorities would submit their de-
fense at San Francisco.
Mr.. Peters replied that II might not be
necessary to sit at San Francisco.
The point was finally settled In favor
Of the British contention. Sixteen British
claims, with a total Of $i59,5OO and with
interest added from the time of seizure,
were filed yesterday and ten more will fol-
low to-day.

TREASURY GOLD CERTIFICATES
The Department Expected to Resume
Issuing Them.

Issuing Them.
Washington, Nov. 25.--Asslstant secre-
tary Curtis has been In New York two
days, but will be at his desk again Fri
day. No information is obtainable at the
department as to the cause for his visit
to New York, but 1t is believed to be
in connection with the proposed renewal
of the issuance Of gold certificates. 1t
was generally understood at the depart
ment that upon the return Of the assistant
secretary Carlisle would issue an order
permitting the resumption of this practice,
he having authority under the act Of July
12 1882, to stop the issue of gold certifi-
Gates whenever the reserve fell below the
800 100000 mark. The cessation of this is
sue has happened frequently during the
past four years, but II is now believed
that the ordinary course of business will
not interfere with a practice that has been
found convenient for the banking institu-
tions Of the country, and particularly for
those in the large cities.
There has been no stable gold balance
since 1898. When Secretary Carlisle took
hold Of the treasury In March, 1893, there
were $l16,000O00 of gold certificates out
standing, but they have been steadily with
draw. When the first suspension OF the
issue of gold certificates occurred there
were $l14,0O,000 outstanding This hap
pened in April, 1893. After the sale Of
bonds the gold reserve was recouped but
only temporarily. On two different occa-
sions the issue of gold certificates was re-
sumed, but At was stopped at both times
within two or three days after the order
was made permitting them. Then the
secretary decided not to again direct their
issue until the balance was stable and de-
void Of the fluctuations that had marked
1t through period OF many months. To-
day the outstanding gold certificates ag-
gregate only S39. .5SS 139. The Issue consists
of denominations Of 5000 and $4,000 and
will be Issued to such persons as deposit
the gold in the treasury upon which they
are issued. These issues are largely used
by banks as apart Of their reserve funds
and ena BILE them to carry large amount
of the equivalent OF gold without the bulk
OF the article itself and without the at
tendant losses by abrasion, etc.
