MIR. cARLIsLE's REPLY
To the Inquiries of Senate Sub-Committee a on Finance

To the Inquiries of Senate Sub-Committee | on Finance.
 Washington, June -9-The reply of Hon. John G. Carlisle, secretary of the treasury, to the inquiries of the sub committee on finance of the senate, charged with the investigation of the sale of bonds of the United States in the years 1894, 1895 and 1896, was made public today. The secretary traces the begin- ming of the trouble back to the closing year of President Harrison's administra- ton. f Speaking generally of the various is- sues the secretary says: tf Owing to the discouraging condition of our financial affairs and the consequent lack of confidence in the ability of the government permanently to maintainS a reserve under system of redemption and reissue of notes. very considerable
 difficulty was encountered in effecting the loan invited by the proposal of Jan uary F, 1894, and at one time pendilg
 the call 1t was feared that the effort. would fail. However. owing to extraor-
 dinary exeFtions made during the last two or three days preceding the time
 when the bids were to be opened sub-
 scriptions for the whole amount were se- cured. f
 At the time the contract of February
 s, 1895, was made the emergency was so pressing that the whole purpose Of the
 loan would have been defeated if the re-
 plenishment of the reserve had been
 postponed for sufficient length of time
 to advertise for bids, and, besides, it was
 exceedingly doubtful whether, under the
 circumstances. any sales could have been
 made to the general public upon as fa-
 vorable terms as to the rate of interest
 as were secured by that contract.
 Replying to that part of the senate res-
 plgtio1 which directs the committee to
 bond sales had on the credit" the secre-
 tary says that in his opinion the sales
 were necessary for the preservation of
 the credit of the government and the
 security of The business interests of the
 people. and that they In fact accom- plshed those results Il

SECOND EDITION.
WHITE MEN WERE SCARCE
The Rally Last Night Was Wet-Blanket Afair-Tyler Goodwin, Two Smiths
 and Captain Kolb Speak.

The republicans had another rally last night near the government building, cor ner of Eighteenth street and Second ave- nue.
 The speakers were J. A. W. Smith, re- publican nominee for state senator from Jefferson county; Tyler Goodwin, son of the republican nominee for governor; W. H. Smith, Jr., republican nominee for at torney-general, and Capt. R. r. Kolb
 The three first named speakers are all young men in the political arena, ana their embarTa ssment in having to race a horde of from 800 to 500 negroes and about seventy-fiVe to 100 whites was not only noticea ble, but detracted from their eff forts.
 The gist of all the speeches was that same old sore toe charge of ballot box stuffing and the counting out of that prince of political philanthropis Capt. Reuben F. Kolb.
 One of the speakers attempted to whitewash MT. Goodwin in his vote in congress to seat the negro Murray on the ground that the evidence showed that Murray was elected and it was the sworn duty of Goodwin to uphold the law. The argument fell like a wet blan- ket even on some of the white populist- republicans present With all their feal- ty 1t was evident that the white listeners could not get their consent to believe that Goodwin was so much more honest than other white men who voted against seating Murray.
 The State Herald and News came in for their usual share of abuse the inn mortal Captain Kolb devoting about all of his remarks to these papers.
 One very noticeable feature of the evening was the absence of Moseley' s beaver to wave up yell from the colored brother but Kolb's smile was on hand, shining like old Sol on a May Sunday.
 Upon the whole it was one of those meetings the colored men were not in- terested in, the speakers themselves ap- parently ashamed of. it, and it was full ripe disgust all on one tree.

E. E. Carlisle Was Assaulted by Jim Harper, IL
 Is Alleged.

After the. republican powwow at the gov ernment building last night, and while the crowd was dispensing, Jim Harper, negro, cursed E. E. Carlisle, also colored, for being a democrat, using a very opprobrious epithet. and at the same time striking him an ugly blow over the right eye with a heavy walking stick, cutting the brow open almost to the bone. Officer Walton came up about this time and arrested both men. Harper was arrested on three charges, to- wit: Assault and battery with stick car rying a concealed pistol and using profane language in the presence of witnesses. Car lisle was arrested for an affray. The latter promptly gave bond and as soon as released was taken to the Adams Drug company S place of business, where Dr. Foster dressed his wound, and he went homeWard accom- panied by friends.
 Witnesses say the attack oh Carlisle was unprovolxed, and that he will be discharged when Judge Feagin hears the testimony in the case.

He Will Be Permanent Chairman-The Selees ton of Him and Fairbanks Was
 Surprise.

Cleveland, O., June 9.-Backed up by a slate made by McKinley's managers, c. W. Fairbanks of Indianapolis will be made temporary chairman of the St. Louis convention and Hon. John M. Thurston of Nebraska will be permanent chairman.
 These selections come in the nature of a surprise, as neither had been prominently mentioned during the canvass for the po- sltions. It had been understood that the selections would be either MT. Merriam of Minnesota, who refused the honor a month ago; Messrs Buckley of Connecti- cut Alger of Michigan, Evans of Tennes- see, Warner Miller of New York or Hast ings of Pennsylvania, with Charles H Grosvenor of Ohio as possibility.
 These men were all carefully consid- cred as to their peculiar fitness for the positions by McKinley'S managers, and for one reason or another were rejected During the heat of the campaign Thurs ton had been one of McKinley's most act i've supporters. At one time he was men,
 tioned as the man to make the pominat- ing speech for Mckinley, and when Fora ker was given the honor deal was made whereby Thurston was to receive an equally high honor.
 When c. W. Fairbanks was in Cleve- land three weeks ago he was considered as the proper man to preside over the convention during its first arduous deiib- erations. His keenness and sagacity as one of the first lawyers of the Hoosier State and a leader of the state republican forces peculiarly fitted him for the task Another strong argument in his favor was that by thus honoring Indiana Nc Kinley would be assured of is unani- nous support and effectually kill any at tempt to boom Harrison at the last mo- ment.

The st. 10 Convention.

The Republican convention at
st. 10 was without doubt the most
enthusiastic convention ever held
in the state, and 30 well did it do
its work that thousands of votes
have been added to the Republi-
can columns next fall. There was
some warmth displayed during the
proceedings of the convention
while men were making fight for
their favorite sons, but when the
work was done the was an enthu-
siastic and unanimous declaration
to go home and get to work for
Republican success in November.
One of the prominent figures of
the convention was Walter Jones,
of Howell county, the land of the
big cred apple. He is magnificent
specimen of manhood, with a voice
like lion. He was for kerens
and Cahoon But when Kerens
went down before the awful oppo-
sition vote, he accepted the situa-
tion gracefully, and was the first
man to propose three cheers for
the work of the convention. Jones
of Howell county would have a
better show for Governor than
Cahoon.
The delegates at large selected
by the convention are Chauncey /
