CONDEMNED BUILDING FALLS,
killing Two Persons and Injuring
Others.

BROOKLYN, n. Y, Feb. 6.-Two
men We're killed and two injured today.
by the fall of building on Third ave-
nue., this city. The building was con-
demned nearly year ago. 1t was a.
three-story brick, so by 125 feet, and
was owned by the H. w. Johns Manu-
featuring company. The upper floors
were vacant, but the first floor was;
rented by James Quiggley, who used
1t for cooperage shop. He had usu-
ally ten men at work in his shop, butt
this morning there were only himself
and three others. The dead are:I
James Quigley, proprietor Of the COOP
erage shop; Simon Leaman, work.
man. The injured are Michael Null
calhy, probably fatally; Daniel Meehan,
slightly.
The building seemed to give way
In the center, and the whole south
side was totally wrecked. The build
ing had been shaking in the wind for
some time. and it is supposed that the
center of the roof gave way. The po-
sition Of the bodies showed that Quig,
ley and Leaman had heard the crash
when the building began to fall, and
had been caught by the walls when
half way on their rush for the door
Another building, a two-story and
attic frame, in course of construction
in Bensonhurst, was blown by the
storm Work upon the building, how
ever, had been stopped for the day,
and no one was hurt by its fall. From
various parts of the city the police
have reports OF buildings being un-
rooted by the wind. and many shade
trees have been destroyed.

DRAWING ON THE RESERVE.
Where Else Could Bidders Expect
to Get Their GoId9

WASHINGTON, Feb. 6.-The trea-
sury today lost $1,073.S00 in gold coin
and $10,400 in bars, leaving the true
amount of the reserve sac, ,29S, ,779. Not
wfthstanding the success of the new
loan, fears are entertained that a con-
siderable share of the gold offered in
payment will have been withdrawn
from the treasury for that purpose
In anticipation yof the loan the gold
withdrawn from the treasury during
the month from Jan. to Feb. s
amounted to S7.349, $40 which, added to
today's Withdrawals, makes an aggre-
gate of about $S,5O0,000. The magitude
of the subscriptions to the loan which
amounted to over $55S, 900, 900 calls at
tention to the fact that the totalamount
of gold coin and gold certificates in
circulation in the United States is less
than $550,000,000, and the natural in
ference is that a great number Of bid
ders must have depended upon getting
their supply from the treasury or out
side sources. What will be the result
upon the reserve is "a matter of grave
concern, and while. it is said that it
will be augmented by. at least Sill, ,00O,-
600 as a result Of the present sale it
is not so apparent that when the last
1nstallment becomes due the reserve
will not have been reduced to point
not greatly in excess Of the $10O, 900 600
requirement.

FORCED TO THE WALL.
Big Stove Concern Makes an As
sfgnment.

Big Stove Concern Makes an As
signment.
ST. LOUIS, Mo-, Feb. 6-The Ex-
celsior Manufacturing company, a large
stove-making concern, Of which Giles
F. Filley Sr. is president, made an as
signment late this afternoon. Charles
Fl. Filley, vice president of the COM
pany, made the announcement after he
had been in consultation all day with
the other officers and their attorneys.
Several years Of bad business and
lack Of ready money led to this step,
but ar effort will be made to reorgan-
ize the company. The amount of la
bilities is not known at present, but
assets are large, including $2S0.000
worth of stock on hand.
Charles H. Filley, the financial man
Of the house, told the story of their
troubles after the failure had been
made public. "We have been consider
ing for some time,' he said. "the adj
visibility of reorganizing. Recent hard
times, combined with warm weather
was bad for us, but with new moneyed
men in the concern we would have
been all right. When we took stock
on the first of the year and found
that we had s2S0,00O worth Of stoves
on hand, but no cash. Our efforts to
secure new capital were unsuccessful.
There was nothing left for US to do
but assign. Aside from the need of
money to carry on our business we
were in very good shape. We would
close out and have a great deal left,
but we do not wish to do that. We
own all our own patents and trade
marks. which are very valuable, and we
think we are in a way to do tre-
mendous business if we can get on our
feet again."

HOUSE TALKS FREE COINAGE.
johnson, of North Dakota, Makes
the Speech of the Day.

WASHINGTON, F1b. 6.-The senate
free C ,ir age substitute for the house
bond bill rs d :bated five hours in the
house this afternoon and for 'lree
hours at the night session. Neverthc-
less the pressure from members for
time to present their views is so great
that it seems possible now that the de-
bate may yet run over into next week.
The speeches so far have been tame
and dry. There we've two notable eX-
ceptions, however, today. Mr.. Johnson
of North Dakota and Mr.. Johnson Of
California, both republicans, but of
different sides of the silver question,
afforded entertainment and perhaps in
struction. The former was once a
school teacher and today he brought
tIe methods of the school room into
the house. He placed some charts in
front of the speakers desk, illustrat-
ing graphically the rise and fall of
prices in this country, the production
Of silver, the price of wheat in India,
measured in silver, and pointing his
hand like professor to his pupils, ex-
planned converging and diverging lines.
Mr.. Johnson, of California, on the other
hand, whose fiery protests against the
passage of the bond bill attracted
general attention, won the ap-
plause Of the silver men with an ell
oquent speech urging the Republicans
not to ignore silver and warning them
of the dire consequences that might
follow if they did His wit was so
trenchant and his blade so keen that
he was frequently applauded by those
who were not in sympathy with him.
Mr.. McLaurin, Oem. S. c. occupied
several minutes in replying to the
speech of Mr.. Pearson, Rep. N. c.
last night. He referred to the contest
between Brute force and money and
manhood and voters denounced Mr..
Pearson for catering to a cheap ap-
plause and befouling his own nest. Mr..
Wheeler, Oem. Ala.) then occupied the
debate proper with free silver argu-
ment. The house at o'clock took a
recess until 7:3O D. M
There were only about twenty-five
members at the night session. The
slight attendance gradually dwindled
away until when the last speaker clos
ed there was but solitary member on
the floor. There were no incidents of
any kind. The speakers were: Messrs.
Arnold (Rep., Pa), Danforth Rep., o.,
Turner Oem., Va.), and Dewitt Rep.,
o., in favor Of concurrence in the SEN
ate substitute, and Allen (Rep., Utah),
Cooper, Dem, Tex.), Wilson Oem., S.
c., Hyde Rep., Wash.), and Neill
Oem., Ark.), against concurrence Mr.
Kirkpatrick Rep., Kan.) said he would
vote against both the motion to concur
and that to non-concur. At 10 o'clock
the house took recess until 1890
o'clock tomorrow morning.

NOT QUITE POPULAR ENOUGH,
But with the Law as 1t Exists the
Government Did the Best 1t

NEW YORK, Feb. 6-The Evening
Post publishes an interview with Presi-
dent Cleveland regarding the bond
issue in which he says:
From such information as comes TO
me from various private sources, 1 am
convinced that more small holdings of
gold will be drawn into the treasury
by the present arrangement than an
pears on the surface. The small coun-
try banks, for instance. which are hav

made their bids through New York
and Boston correspondents, and this
gives the loan the appearance of hay-

institution at all the money centers.
although as a matter of fact not a
little of 1t will ultimately come from

The subject Of the syndicate contract
Of February, 1895, having been men
toned, Mr.. Cleveland remarked that
he had never had reason to question
the wisdom of that arrangement under
the conditions then existing. THAT

might have produced serious results. /
sympathize, nevertheless, with some of
the objections made to that form of
placing a loan. The difference be-
tween the price obtained from the
syndicate, and the price currently quot
ed can be twisted into an argument
which will appeal to people who do not
stop to calculate the actual cost to the
syndicate of floating the loan at that
time. My preference would have been
to have the present loan much more
popular than it appears on It's face.
but we have done the best we could.
The people who hoard small quantities
Of gold or equivalents of gold are un-
accustomed to transact business on the
basis on which those bonds had to be
issued; they are unused to premiums or
to the formalities of making bids. If
we could have sold them per cent
gold bonds at par. 1 think it would
have brought out good deal of this
gold; but the only bonds the law al
lows us to issue have 60 be sold con-
siderably above par In order to keep

NEAR A SETTLEMENT.
End Of Venezuelan Trouble Near at
Hand, According to This.

hanO, according 10 THIS.
LONDON, Feb. THE Chronicle this
morning announces that it learns on
good authority that a partial settle
nent of the Venezuelan difficulty has
been effected, or the Chronicle adds,
"if not actually effected, is on the very
point of settlement" The Chronicle
then gives long letter from "a we'll
informed Washington correspondent,
stating that since the boundary queS-
ton has assumed an acute phase, Sec
retary Olney has carefully examined all
the facts relating to the seizure by the
Venezuelan authorities of British po-
licemen on territory claimed as Venez
uelan, and has arrived at the conclu-
sion that it is matter entirely sepa-
rated from boundary questions. Sec
retary Olney told Senor Andreade, the
Venezuelan minister" the Chronicle
says, that Venezuela cannot hope to
escape satisfying England on this ques-
ton by hiding behind Americas skirts.
This decision is expected to prove
powerful lever in the direction Of
settlement. President Crespo is in the
dilemma Of being overthrown If he pays
the indemnity, or of suffering the in
dignity of bombardment or occupation
Of a Venezuelan port if he declines to
pay. Therefore he may seek to post
pone the payment by acceding to Lord
Salisburys demands for a renewal Of
diplomatic relations which would easily
lead to the arbitration Of the whole
question"

HokE ON PACIFIC RAILWAYS.
Says the Government Should Fore
close and Sell the Roads.

WASHINGTON, Feb. 6-Secretary
Hoke Smith, in a conference with the
house Pacific railroads committee, to-
day advocated foreclosure of the gov
ernment mortgage on the Pacific rail-
roads, and a resale of the roads. If
congress did not legisate he would
revoke his suspension orders and pat
ent the lands to the roads. Secretary
Smith said that any purchaser of the
roads could pay a fair rate of interest
on bonds, pay fair sum every year
for the redemption of bonds, and still
have handsome profit. If any COM
pany stood ready to purchase the
roads of the government, giving first
mortgage bonds at per cent, and
making small yearly payment on the
principal, the offer should be accepted.
