THE Bank of Montreal now refuses to
take United States bills or silver from any
one, no matter what the discount offered.
Other banks in the Dominion have been
charging a small discount, but they are
likely to follow suit, and it is expected that
in a very short time American money will
be driven from the Canadian market.

that the diplomatic representatives there
will verify the assertion that 5000 Christians

A. W. TERRELL, United States minister
to Turkey, has sent his resignation to the
president. He will return TO this country
in October. This information is said to
come direct from Mrs. Terrell, who gave it
out not expecting that it would be made
public. According to the story, while the
resignation had not been asked for point
blank, Terrell became satisfied it would be
acceptable and acted on the knowledge.
HoKE SMITH secretary of the interior,
has resigned and his resignation has been
accepted by President Cleveland. After
the nomination of Bryan and Sewall it be-
came known that Secretary Smith was the
only member OF the cabinet who announced
the purpose to support that ticket, and this
action on his part, while not in any way af-
fecting his personal relations between him
self and the other members of the cabinet
seemed 80 material to him that he felt con-
strained to tender his resignation.
THE democrats and populists of Idaho

mine inspectors to the populists, the legis-
lature, senator, congressman, lieutenant
