a telegram was received from the as
sistant treasurer at New York late yes.er-
day afternoon, saying that in addition to
the s27:a'.oo0 in gold coin ordered to be
imported and reported yesterday morn
ing, s2,22:.0.OO0 had been engaged for i'm
port. making the total orders for the day
s3.OoO0O0. The total engagements for sold
imports since the present movement began
is s9..rN.OoO
According to the latest advices from New
York. the gold that is now on the way or
contracted for will go into the banks and
it is expected that some of il will Suisse
quently be deposited ia the subtro asury in
return for small notes, of which some of
the banks are short. The demand from the
country for currency in small denonlna-
tons has been very great. and more is
needed. as is usual al this season of the
year. for crop moving and harvesting pur-
poses.
BY this means the banks will aid TO
maintain the treasurys gold reserve Some
OF the first gold that will be received will
so INTO banks to replace gold borrowed
some days ago for shipment to San Fran
cisco.
The latest advices from the Pacific coast
are to the effect that the demand for gold
from that section is over. and the treasury
reserve will now decline more slowly. Dur
ing the recent scare" along the Pacific
&C asst evidence has been obtained that some
of the mCst pronounced advocates of free
silver have been the most earnest gold
hoarderS.
Plenty of gold was offered for sale IN
New York yesterday at premium of one
eighth of l per cent. but no purchasers
could be found at that price. Importers
agree in saying that while the highest in
tert st rate temporarily retarded the i'm
portation of gold. the importation would
continue now without interruption.

GOLD FROM ENGLAND.
The Bank is. beginning to Feel the
Withdrawals.

LGNDON, August 2S.-1le Westminster
Gazette, this afternoon. says that the Bank
of England is beginning to feel the gold
withdrawals. and therefore reduced the
price Of eagles and raised the price of bar
gold. with the object of inducing shippers
to take eagles.
The paper named adds that it is probable
however. that the bank will be forced to
further raise the price OF bar gold in order
to retain It: but, the newspaper further
states. it Is not likely there will be enough
gold Withdrawn by the United States to
cause a raise in the banks rate of discount.
With gold at the present figure. Il IL
further stated. it is probable that the bank
will permit a further withdrawal of seven
and even ten millions before taking pro.
tective measures.

The Hazleton Sentinel enjoys the
distinction of publishing nothing but pro
JUDGED and untruthful comments ON
Freeland games and players. The base
ball editor is not on good terms with the
town, and his anmosity to Freeland is
injected in his writings at every oppor-
tunity. The public. however, considers
the source, and judges accordingly.
The Tigers will cndeayor to repeat
the work of last Sunday in the game to
be played with Easton State league club,
A strong team has been procured by
Manager Hanlon, and the audience can
depend upon seeing an interesting con

The Stars and Jeddo clubs are con-
lident that if admitted to the Anthracite

HOME BOARD AFFAIR
Several Prominent Presbyterians
Called to Saratoga.
THE ATTACK TO BE MADE THURSDAY
Assembly Committee on Missions Reports
To-day-Proposition To Retire Those
Members Whose Terms Expire This
Year-New Blood Is Wanted.

Saratoga, N. Y, May 2G.-The pre-
dicament of the home board on account
of the Mission house investment has
caused gathering of the friends of the
board in this city. EX-moderatoi
Charles l.. Thompson of New York and
Charles A. Dickey of Philadelphia ar
rived last night. John Hall, president
of the board, is here. John E. Parsons,
the boards counsel, has been called tc
its assistance, and other influential
Presbyterians have been summoned
The date of the attack is fixed fol
Thursday. But to-day will have trou,
Bile of its own for the board. The as
sembly's committee on home missions
reports to-day. This committee has
digested the report of the board, in
cluding the schedule of the Mission
house building committee. A promi.
nent commissioner said last evening
that a proposition is to be made to the
assembly to retire those members of the
board whose terms expire this year
and elect in their stead Presbyterians
from other parts of the country, there
by introducing new blood into the
board and breaking the clique of New
Workers who play into the hands of
the Wall street bankers" If the Hub,
bard resolutions are not discussed to-
day there will be other matters to en-
gage the attention of the visitors from
New York. One of the foreign board,
who is also an influential member of
the assembly, said last night: 81 think
the proposal of Miss Kennedy to aid
the boards to return to the old quarters
most noble and generous. 1t ought
to be accepted by the assembly
with gratitude and satisfaction.
1t eXtricatcs in an honorable and easy
manner the two boards from a most
dangerous situation, from which they
must retire sooner or later. We can
not handle the building at Fifth ave,
nue. and Twentieth street as proftably
as a business man could. For instance,
we were offered $50, 600 rental for the
corner room, but could not accept as
an independent business man could, as
it was wanted for restaurant, and
liquors are sold in a restaurant. Again,
the space occupied by the chapel is
worth $40, 900 a year. A business man
would avail himself of this space at
profit, but we cannot"

BLOW TO FREE CUBA
Result of Supreme Court Decision
in the Horsa Case.
MORE EXPEDITIONS TO BE SENT
But More Secrecy VIII BE Necessary and
They VIII Labor Under Greater Dihi
culty-Executive CIemency Capt.
Wiborg's Only Hope.

Philadelphia, May 26-The decision
rendered by the United States supreme
court yesterday, holding that Capt.
Niborg of the steamship Horsa was
guilty of violation of the neutrality
laws in conducting a filibustering ex-
pedition to aid the Cuban insurgents.
is great blow to the friends of free
Cuba in this city, who say that, while
other expeditions will undoubtedly be
sent to that island, they will have to
be conducted with much more secrecy
and under far more difficult circum-
stances. Unless the president inter
feres Capt. Wiborg will have to serve
the sentence originally imposed upon
him. The opinion, which was de-
livered by Chief Justice Fuller, holds
that the decision of the Pennsylvania
court was correct on the point that
the expedition was violation of the
neutrality laws. The Judgment of the
lower court was affirmed as to Capt.
Wiborg, but reversed as to the mates
of the llorsa, Johansen and Petersen,
on the ground that they were ignorant
of the purpose of the expedition Judge
Harlan concurred in the reversal of the
Judgment as to Petersen and Johansen,
but dissented from the Judgment firm
ing the sentence against Wiborg, This
case was recently advanced by the su-
preme court at the request of the at
torney general, who was desirous of
securing decision as to the condition
of the neutrality laws and their effect
in preventing filibustering expeditions
against friendly powers.

Bikes Good for Bail in New York City.

New York, May 26.-By the new
laws any person violating city ordi-
nance punishable only by fine, may,
instead of securing bondsmen, leave as
collateral any valuable equal to the
amount of bail and thus escape waiting
in Jail for bonds. This will prove es-
pecially beneficial to cyclists, who may,
when arrested for "scorching' or not
carrying lights, leave their wheels at
the station house as bail for the own
ers appearance in court next day.
