WASHINGTON, p. c.. Jan. d,-The
advertisement for the sale OF govern
nent bonds, promulgated by Secretary
Carlisle at /: o'clock last night, attracts
wide attention and is variously COM
mented on. 1t is looked upon as sur
render Of the President and Mr.. Car
,isle to the overwhelming sentiment OF
the country against private contracts
In bond sales.
The credit for this result is conceded
10 Senator Elkins. OF West Virginia,
whose resolution OF Friday last ere

facts brought out In Senator Elkins'
speech in advocacy ot his resolution.
showing the enormous profits resulting
TO the syndicate that manipulated the
February loan. could not be wtthstood.
The one fact alone that the expense OF
floating the S62. 100000 loan exceeded
the cost OF all the great war loans, was
enough to convince the finance officials
that any repetition OF n private con-
tract would not be tolerated and would
eventuate in the greatest scandal that
ever came 10 any administration.

Whether the resolution offered by
Mr., EilSins shall be adopted tomorrow
or not matters but little. His agitation
Of the question set the pace. the press

In all this West Virginia gathers
prominence and prestige.
Senator Eikfns Is In receipt OF many
congratulations on his marked triumph
and upon thus early taking rank as
a financial and political leader In the
senate. II is due to his courage, firm
ness and determination that there

LONDON, Jan. 6.-The statement
cabled to the United States by News
agency that DR.. Jameson had been re-
leased from custody at Pretoria, Trans
vaaf, is officially stated to be without
foundation IN fact.
All sorts OF rnmors are In circulation
to-day, due to the delay in receiving
accurate news from Cape Colony. The
report circulated on Saturday that the
Uitlanders had risen and rescued Dr.
jameson Is still In circulation. although
n rad been contradlcted moro than
once. Then again, It Is stated that the
british government Is hurrying troops
from india to Cape Town. But. there
would seem TO be no necessity for such
a step as a concentration of military
forces from other British African col
onies could be quickly made there II ne

OF witnesses were examined to-day by
Coroner Waite. who commenced the in
quest over the bodies Of the victims Of
the recent explosion, in which seven
lives were lost and 100000 worth OF

The consensus OF opinion was that the
explosion was caused by fire. but no.
body seemed to know how 1t started.
Fireman Thomas Haines. who was
early on the scene, declared that It was
dynamite that wrecked the buildings
and caused the loss OF life.
H, II. Grubbs. the commission mer-
chnnt who handled the explosive fire
works, denied that he had any dynamite
or giant powder In his stock, which was
valued Mt about $4,000.

PHILADELPHIA, Pa, Jan. 6.-The
senate investigating committee to-day
resumed It's work OF inquiring into the
municipal affairs of this city. Twenty
eight witnesses were examined, indicat-
ipG BY their testimony the active par
tIcipatIon OF the ninth district police In
the political affairs OF the Fifteenth
ward.
Mayor Warwick Is q resident OF the
yarri and the evidence was almost all
in reference to the delegate election last
August, when the administration forces
were urrayed against Senator Quay.
one OF the results OF the investigation
thus far was the arrest to-day OF John
Davis, an cx-policeman. on the charge
OF perjury. At n previous session OF
the committee Davis swore he obta!n-
ed a place on the force without the nee
essity OF passing civil service eXamt-
milton. The warrant for his arrest was
sworn out by Secretary Eeill OF tie civil

RECEIVER APPOINTED

Ohio Road.

AKRON, O., Jan. 6.-Judge vootis
to-day appointed John Tod, of Cleve-
fand, who has been the receiver Of the
New York, Pennsylvania & Ohio rail-
road. us master commissioner to sell
the rond. The date Of the sale has not
been fixed, but 1t will be about the mid
die OF March. The price must be at
least ten millions, and must all be paid
within thirty days. The appointment
was made on the application OF the
Farmers Loan and Trust Company, OF
New York.
The report OF the auditor OF the com
pany, which accompanies the report,
shows that the liabilities are:
First mortgage and interest, $H'S4S'-
900: deferred warrants SCI, 27,640.@5; In
terest earned and payable, $2.62l,S04;
prior liens, $S,O00,000
According TO this statement, after
the prior lien Is satisfied, the first mort
gage bondholders will get but small
amount OF the principal and interest OF
their bonds.
There viii be nothing for the bond
holders under the Drisler nnd Mes

the opinion with great confidence that
It would be impossible for the lnsur-
gents 10 capture the city unless they
were provided with siege artillery 1t
is claimed that only small bands OF IN
surgents are engaged In the outrages
under Gomez md that they are sue
cessful In small towns.
The opinion again holds here that the
movement OF the insurgents Is directed
against the country districts, and al
though preparations have been made
here against possible surprise, there
Is no present fcnr OF an attack.
A statement credited to DR.. Arttgas
that the Spanish military doctors are
poisoning the sick and wounded troops
is pronounced untrue and Is attributed
TO professional jealousy. DIR. Artigasx'
course Is pronounced most unGratetul.

LONDON, Jan, 6.
To the World. New York.
In answer to your telegram OF the
4th, we beg TO shy that under ordinary
circumstances we would never venture
TO offer an opinion on any financial
question which Is under discussion by
a foreign government and It's legisla-
ture. but we are always ready to give
our advice on any practical tssue when
called upon TO do SO by those who have
power to act.
We must tell you very frankly that
In our Judgment the severe financial
situation at preSnt Is chiefly caused by
the political crisis. and us soon as the
American and English governments
have satisfactorily settled the question
at issue the financial strain win be con-
sIderably relaxed, II Il does not alto
gether disappear.
When the political horizon Is quite
clear, and It is finally established In the
minds OF NIL men that the good feeling
and understanding which exists In the
hearts OF the people OF England and
America Is beyond doubt, and is ac-
knowledged and ratified by the two
governments. then will be the time and
opportunity for America to apply to
the British capitalists.

After n careful survey OF the various
localities of the State DR.. Smith decided
upon Lynchburg as the place for the Wo-
mans College. In a few months $1,000
was raised for the building and. endow-
ment OF the institution :, The best fea-
lures were adopted from the leading col
Ieges OF the North, and in construc-
ton and arrangement the Woman's Col
lege stands unsurpassed. Upon the COM
pletlon OF the building and its acceptance
by the Board of Trustees DR.. Smith al
once moved his residence TO the college.
and has since given It his constant atten-
ton. His efforts and influence have been
earnestly devoted TO this branch OF the
RandoIph-Macon system. and a number
OF the students are children OF the pupils
he taught IN the earlier years Of his edu-
cational work. The college has been
pronounced success from its first incep-
ton. The president and Board OF Trus-
tees have fixed the standard OF the coll
lege exactly as that OF the Randolph
Macon College for men, and the course
OF study leading TO the degree OF 4. b.
Is identical In both institutions. There
are several absolutely distinctive features
Of this college. Its endowment OF sln.-
