WASHINGTON, Dec. 2G.-Great inter.

childs, through Messrs. Belmont and
Morgan, had made overtures to let the
United, States have any amount of gold
needed. The statement, it is learned,
is accurate, so far as concerns the fact
that Russia rendered the United States
part of it's store of gold, but the nat.
ural inference that this offer was a re-

tions now existing between the United

of the negotiations of the Venezuelan
boundary question and was in fact
made two years ago.
This tender was made about eight
months after President Cleveland as
sumed the presidential Office for his
second term. At the time the offer wa:
gratefully acknowledged, but as the
! capitalists of other nations gained an
inkling Of the fact that the tender had
been made, it was found that the terms
upon which gold could be procured IL
the open market, as a consequence Of
Russia's tender, were so favorable a:
to render it unnecessary to tax the
friendship of Russia. At present, so il
is understood, the Russian offer still
holds good, and about the only new
phase of the situation is that this fact
has been made known freshly to the
European gold brokers.

Carroll's Sheriff Said TO be Satisfied
With What

He Has Done in the Way of ArrestinR
Prize Fighters and viii Not Bother
Spectators.
Sheriff Butler, of Carrolton, is still doing
some talking about arresting people connected
with the Sherrodsvile prize fight. The fol.
lowing special TO the News Democrat from
Carrollton, tells Of what has been done In that
city:
Tim Faring, the timekeeper, and Ellis.
worth Gerts, one of Ashton's seconds, have
been released on $500 bond. Dick Ashton and
Mike Burns, the principals, have not consulted
attorneys. Other arrests will be made at
once"
THINK THE SHERIFF Is POOLING,
Massillonians who attended the fight by the
carload, do not believe any further arrests will
be made. dispatch from there says.
1T is believed that the ends of justice will
have been reached by the punishment Of the
principals, and that no serious attempt will be
made to involve spectators. IF the latter are
disturbed they will resist on the ground that
they were invited to witness glove contest
given under the auspices of an organized club
and on the representation that the consent OF
the mayor had been obtained as the law
directs"
