Dining Ahead Of Time,

The Marquise de Fontenoy tells this
story OF Sir William Harcourt: It seems
that on a Monday night during very
busy London season, after consulting
his list Of engagements, he went out to
dinner. He fancied he observed on
making his entrance to the drawing
room that his host and hostess looked
at him with surprise, and even embar-
rassment But he did not think any
thing more about the matter and enjoy
ed himself very much. Tuesday he kept
another dinner engagement, which was
entered in his book. Again he noticed
an almost frightened look passing be-
tween his host and hostess when his
name was announced. Again the en-
barrassment proved transitory, and Sir
William had another thoroughly enjoy.

place on Wednesday and Thursday

Objections to Using the National Library
For the Great Inauguration BalI-One
of the Grandest Structures In the World,
Capital Gossip.
WASHINGTON, Dec. iA-[Special. The
understanding at the present time is that
the Mckinley inaugural ball will be held
In the new National library building.
There are objections to the re of this
building for this purpose, hut they are
mainly OF sentimental character. The
Joint committee of congress on the library,
which has the building directly under it's
control is opposed to having the ball in
the new structure. So Is Librarian Spof-
iordi whose opinion counts for much with
members Of congress Inasmuch az tbe
consent OF congress must be obtained. there
Is likely TO be contest over the matter In
case the citizens committee decides I'm IA

the Inauguration committee will have its
way.

Drary Will be ready for occupancy about
the LIST OF March, and preparations are al
ready being made for removal of the books
and pamphlets from the capitol to the new
building. This will be q large lob. and
the present plan Is 20 shove the books
through an underground tunnel built for
the purpose. When the building and its
appliances are In perfect working order,
the tunnel will be In constant use. Sena-
tors and members of congress may call for
their books In the capitol, the orders will
be given by the attendants over the tele-

BIDS FOR THE NEW BONDS.
No Change or Modification to he
Made in the Call.

Washington, Jan. 14.-No change of mod
ification in the circular Issued by Score
tary Carlisle inviting bids for SlO0 900 200
4 per cent. thirty-year bonds on per
cent. basis is contemplated at the treas
ury department. Already under this cir
cuiar, bids have been received for the
bonds, which bids, it is held would be
vitiated by any change now made. which
would work hardship upon those already
having bid. Under the circular bidders
have forty days within which time to
complete payment for the bonds accepted
by the Secretary of the Treasury. and
should there be, as feared in some quar-
ters, a congestion in the money market
because of the large amount withdrawn
from banks and other repositories, with
which to pay for the bonds, 1t is under
stood here that the Secretary of the Treas
ury viii use his discretion according to
circumstances in eXacting payment with
in the time specified in the circular. II
is not the desire of the administration
TO bring about congestion in the money
market, and should II appear to the Sec
retary of the Treasury tnat such con-
geStiOn would result from his eNacting
literal compliance with the terms of the
circular as to the payment, he viii so
regulate the payments and extend the
time as in his discretion the circumstances
of the case demanded.
Considerable interchange of views on
this point in a quiet kind of way has been
going on for the past few days between
the treasury officials charged with the
responsibility Of perfecting the details Of
the bond payments. 1t is readily recog-
nized that there are two view points of
the situation, viz; That of the treasury
and that of the bidders, from whom the
gold IS to be received. The object of the
treasury is to do the best they can for
the government; the object of the bank
ers and bidders is to get the bonds on
the best terms that they can for them
selves 1t is recognized that most of the
out of the banks of the country and prin-
cipally out of New YofA. ,tfsa effect of
this would be to reduce the gold holdings
of the banks and to necessitate the sub
stitution of some other form of coin or
paper currency for the reserve thus with
drawn. This would naturally produce a
congestion in the money market, and the
Secretary of the Treasury, knowing this,
WILL as above stated, exercise his dis
cretion in the premises alike for the ben
eflt of the treasury and the banking COM
munlty at large. The substance of these
assurances has been communicated in va
rious letters written within the last week
at the treasury department to bankers and
others throughout the country. While no
promise is given that the payments for
the bonds will not be required to be made
within forty days the Secretary has stat
ed that he, being the judge of the circum-
stances, will exercise his discretion IN the
matter to prevent, as far as he can, any
injurious contraction in the currency.

MIssIssIpPrs LEGIsLATURE.
Moneys Election az Senator Expect
ed. a Surprising Appointments.


Jackson, Miss, Jan 1.-THE Mississippi
legislature has done little to-day, partly
on account the senatorial contest, but
more largely because of law requesting
the House to count the ballots cast in the
preceding state. election. The task was
completed about sundown, but the total
vote was not footed up. Few members
remained to listen to the monotonous pro
ceedings. Every member particularly in
terested in the success of a senatorial can
didate was in the lobby, or around head
quarters of his favorite.
Last nights balloting had surprised no
one except the Money supporters, who
claimed enough votes to nominate on the
first or second ballot. 1t was then, and
is not believed the latter can head him
off, In fact it is thought Money would
have been nominated could third ballot
have been secured as he lacked only twelve
votes of the goal, but the opposition
forced the adjournment.
Quite sensation was created in official
circles to-day when it became known that
Gov. Stone had appointed Hon. j. b.
Christians successor as a circuit judge
of thies (the Seventh judicial district
and sent the same to the Senate for con-
firmation. This will be understood when
it is known Gov. Stone goes out of office
on the 2lSt inst, and Judge Chrismans s
term expires the next day. There are 9TH
er applicants for the place-in fact it is
conceded that GoY-elect McIAurin has
promised the plum to Hon. Robert Pow
ell of Canton, and the consequence is that
the McLaurin and Powell contingent are
mad and using every means to defeat
the confirmation. The judiciary commit
tee is expected to report tomorrow.
The third ballot for United States SEN
ator taken tonight, resulted: Money 73
