No Reasonable Doubt Another
Contact Has Been Made.
BANKERS ARE IN THE DEAL
1t Is Almost Certain That the Amount
VIII Be One Hundred Mil
lion Dollars.

Washington, Dec. 30.-There is no rea-
sonable doubt that another bond issue has
been fully agreed upon and that the de-
tails of a contract with syndicate OF
which j. Pierpont Morgan is the head
have been arranged, so that nothing re-
mains to be done to carry it into effect
but for the secretary Of the treasury to
sign his name thereto.
Thus the president is prepared for any
emergency, and there is no doubt that
should heavy Withdrawals of gold Tor
export set in again another issue would
be announced.
The fact that there have been no with
drawals for export within the last sew
eral days, although sterling exchange mas
ruled at or above the shipping point, give
credence to an opinion held in treasury
circles that the market has already begun
to feel the syndicate influence against ex-
ports.
The amount of the next issue, it is al
most certain, has been fixed at OO,OOOOOO,
and it is believed that the terms of the
contract are rather more favorable to the
government than those under which the
last issue was made in this connection
1t is recalled that between August 81,
1895, the date upon which the national
debt reached its highest point, and March
I, 1893, the amount of the governments
outstanding obligations was reduced by
81 1881, 1867, 873. To accomplish this reduction
bonds were purchased to the amount of
$77oSo9,75o. OF this amqunt $324, 10000 were
purchased prior to 1879 and SAG, 459, 453 since
that date.
New York, Dec. 30-A special from Bos
ton to the Evening Post says
1t is impossible to borrow money here
today The banks would not accept Pull
man stock as collateral at per cent.
Several banks have applied to the clear
ing house for certificates. There is
suspicion that money is being boarded to
buy the expected new government bonds.

c. E. DURHAM COMMITTED SUICIDE
Fatal Act Cousummated on a Ranch
Near Moscow.

Moscow Idaho, Dec. 30.-C. E. Durham
committed suicide by shooting himself on
Il. A. Maguire's ranch. about mile from
town, late Sunday afternoon. Full partic-
ulars have not been received, but it is
understood that Durham who has been
away from town for some time, returned
Sunday and went out to Maguire's to see
his wife.
AN EXEMPLARY YOUNG MAN.
Pullman, Wash, Dec. 30.-Charles E.
Durham, who committed suicide near Mos
COW on Sunday by shooting himself
through the heart, was we'll and favorably
known in this vicinity he having resided
here for the last Is months, and was in
the employ of the Washington Commercial
Company, and known and respected as an
industrious, Woodworking young man. 1t
was known that he and his wife had been
living apart for some time, because of
his failure to get along with his mother
in-law and his Wifes brothers. His en-
ployers and others speak in the highest
terms of him. and the natural inference is
that he took his life while temporarily
deranged because of his Wifes refusal to
leave her parents home and reside with
him here where he was employed.
The life of the deceased was insured in
Camp No. 10, Woodmen of the World, for
$4,000 in favor of his two children, who
reside with their mother near Moscow.
The funeral services will be held in Mos
COW tomorrow at l o'clock, under the
direction of the Moscow lodge of Wood
men, where he will be inferred beside his
child, according to his expressed wish.

INVESTIGATE oU>RAveWS CHARGES
Absence OF the Accuser Does Not Inter
fere ith the Yacht clubs Task.

New York Dec. 30-The departure of
Lord Dunraven and Arthur Glennle from
New York on Saturday last detracted only
a little from the interest exhibited by all
those interested when the hearing of eV
idence by the special commission was re-
sumed at the New York Yacht Club to-
day Captains Half and Terry, with many
members of the Defenders crew, were
early on hand.
Lawyer Asquith, who is looking after
the interests of Valkyrie's owner. was
also present, accompanied by Secretary
Hamilton.
At o'clock the commission adjourned
to meet again at 10 o'clock tomorrow.
The members of the commission and
the lawyers, together with the witnesses,
maintained the same stony silence that
has characterized the proceedings of the
Investigation, stating that there was abb
solutely nothing to be said for publica
ton.

NORTHERN PACIFIC NEEDS A HEAD
New Workers Claim There Is No Crisis
AS Stated in the Oregonian.

New York, Dec. 30.-Regarding the ar
ticle in the Portland, Or, Oregonian today
forecasting a probable crisis in the North
ern Pacific receivership controversy, it
is said by local representatives of North
ern Pacific interests here that the article
had little basis in fact, and merely evil
denced the feeling of far western inter
ests concerning the apparent inability of
the courts to agree on a single body of
receivers for the system. The hitherto
unsuccessful efforts of the Farmers Loan
and Trust Company to affect a settle
ment of existing difficulties, however,
have not destroyed a hope of adjustment
in the near future, and a plan now under
discussion is regarded as likely to reach
a more successful issue.

Negro Escaped ,'n sin in s.. ouls ~
a For un"tn rfr"u instance
st. Louis, Dec. 30.-For several weeks a
negro has been stealing all sorts of things
from the butchers and hucksterers of the
Union market house. This morning he
was caught carrying off two horse blank
cts A crowd seized him, bound his
wrists, put a rope around his neck and
strung him up by a block and tackle,
hanging In the market house The negro
broke the cord which bound his arms,
and before the mob realized what he
was doing whipped out big knife from
his pocket, cut the rope around his neck,
dropped to the ground and ran like a
deer. He was overtaken, but turned and
showed such desperate fight that the
crowd wavered and the negro lodged
in an alley and escaped.

SITUATION AT ZGlTOUN is GRAVE


London, Dec. 30.-A dispatch to the
Times from COnstantfnople says:
The latest advices from Zeitoun are
that the insurgents have been rein
forced by 500 men from Gurn and have
occupied new positions. Accordingly
the dragomans OF the powers went to
the porte and offered to negotiate with
a capitulation."
The Daily News Constantinople cor
respondent says:
I'm reply to United States Minister
Terrills request to Consul Jewett at ST.
vas, that he should go to Marsovan,
JeWett has wired that it is impossible
to leave, as another outbreak is threat
ened."
London, Dec. 30.-The correspondent
Of the Standard al COnstantinOple says:
ut will be needless to be surprised at
a secret treaty between Russia and Tur-
key. A Russian syndicate, strongly sup
ported by the embassy. has offered to
replenish the Turkish treasury in re-
turn for the concession of a petroleum
monopoly"

NOTHING NEW FROM VENEZUELA
offieial Communieation Which CON.

Official Communication Which Con.
tanned Lite OF Note for FubiicatiOn.
Washington, Dec. 30-An official com
muncation from the Venezuelan govern
ment came in the mail today, but as far
as can be learned presented no new phase
Of the situation The mail left Caracas
five days after President Cleyeland's mes
sage on the Venezuelan question, so there
was ample time for the government to
take steps necessary to communicate to
this government Minister Andrade did
not go to the state department during
the day, which appeared to confirm the
view that the Venezuelans are in pass
i've attitude pending the development of
the policy of the United States.
