Constantinople has been the scene of n
serious riot. On Wednesday q band Of alleg-
ed Armenlans seized the Ottoman Bank, first
killing the gondsrmes who guarded it, and
having barricaded it, defended themselves
for some time against the soldiers sent to
dislodge them. 1t is said in the official
report that while in possession of the bank
the Armenians hurled a number of bombs
into the streets, but the Sultan always has
bombs on the brain. The official account is
indeed, in every way a most extraordinary
document, and is full Of frightened phrases
and talk about Nihilism and Anarchism.
Perhaps, however, the strangest part Of all
10 the statement that when the twenty five
desperadoes ultimately surrendered they were
not put into prison, but were sent on board
Sir Edgar Vmcent's yacht, and that they will
be expelled from Ottoman territory. Yet
they committed murdsr and threw bombs.
The ways of the Porte are, indeed, inscrut-
able. No attempt was made TO seize the
yaluables in the bank, and the incident, what
ever its origin, is pronounced to have been
purely political There is clearly a great
deal behind the whole transaction which has
not yet been made public. III any event it is
q very OminOus occurrence.

Gorlitz, Tuesday 8th Sept.
The Emperor William, in proposing the
feast Of the Fifth Amy Corps, at the Mill
tary Dinner given here last night, spoke as
follows:
With a joyful heart | raise my glass at this
festival banquet to drink to the health of
she Fifth Corps. | thank you from the bot
tom of my heart that you have maintained
the corps in its present excellent efficiency
but / express these thanks not on my own
behalf only, but also III the name of my
revered grandfather and my never to be
forgotten father, for you are fulfilling their
wishes in thus maintaining the efficiency
of these fine regiments, who were SO dear
to their hearts, and who marched past so
well to-day.
Truly a fine portion of Prussian history
passes in review before us with these regi-
ments and their names and colours. Our
hearts are stirred as our vision carries us
back to the places where so many of those
who belonged to the regiments are laid at rest
who with their blood and their lives helped
to win ana achieve that which causes Us to
rejoice to-day. It must be the wish of
every soldier that the regiments may always
be and remain what they formerly were.
Unjust, however, express to you and the
ahole corps my special satisfaction that it
was your good fortune to appear in this high

In complete accord with ne, his efforts

Europe, in order to unite them on the ground
Of common interests and for the protection
Of our most sacred possessions. May this

Congressman McLaurin Exposes the
Real Object of the Measure.
Hon. John l.. McLaurin, of South
Carolina, was allowed ten minutes In
the discussion of the bond bill proposed
by the Republicans, aud he spoke as
follows.
Mr.. Speaker, / am opposed to the
passage of this bill, because its pro-
visions will not only burden an al
ready debt-ridden people, but will
legalize long series OF usurpations
by different secretaries of the treas
ury. The caption declares this a bill
Ito protect the coin redemption fund.-"
while at the same time there Is not a
single line of law upon the statute
book authorizing or providing any
such fund. Judging from past ex-
perience, without doubt this language
would be construed by Ghe Secretary
for the purpose OF sequestering in the
Treasury this vast sum of 100000, 600,
which should be in the channels of
business, giving life and vigor to our
commercial transactions. This un-
authorized fund has been main
tanned in absolute idleness for over
twenty years, and at simple interest
has cost the people move than $780,
0000G0.s This is covert attempt to
legalize an unwarranted assumption,
which alone should prevent the pass
age of the bill. MIR. Speaker, instead
OF this being bill to protect the coin
redemption fund, it is, more properly
speaking, in my Judgment, an act to
provide for a deficiency in our rove
nues. The President has already is
sued over $l60, 100000 of interest bear
ing bonds for the alleged purpose Of
strengthening this reserve fund. In
my opinionwe might with profit inquire
as to what has has become OF the pro-
ceeds of the sale of these bonds.
Mr.. Speaker, is 1t not true that the
one hundred and sixty million, of gold
received from the sale of these bonds
was drawn out Of the Treasury through
the redemption Of United States notes
or greenbacks? Is it not also true
that these one hundred aud sixty
millions of United States notes or
greenbacks have been pald ';ut by the
Secretary of the Treasury in the ordi-
nary expense of the government? i"
peat has it not been the custom O.

The Commissioners arc Men OF high
Character and Splendid Abilities
will Command Respect at Home
ard Abroad.
President Cleveland on the Let inst.
announced the appointment OF the
Venezuelam boundary commission,
which consist Of five members, as fol-
lows:
David j.. Brewer, of Kansas, AS
sociate Justice of the Supreme Court
of the United States; Richard III. Alvey
of Maryland, chief justice of the court
of appeals for the District of Colum-
bia; Andrew ID. White, of New York ;
Frederic r.. Coudert, of New York !;
Daniel @. Gilman OF Maryland, presi-
dent of the John Hopkins University.
The commission Is regarded in
Washington among those who had an
opportunity to see the list of names
after they were made public as u very
satisfactory one, whose opinions and
conclusions will be received by the
American public with that confidence
which the standing of the members Of
the commission in the public eye in
spires.
Justice Brewer is q Republican in
politics and about So years of age. He
is graduate of Yale and has spent
considerable tine in the practice of
his profession in Kansas, where he
filed number of judicial offices. In
1884 he was appointed Circuit Court
Judge of the United States for the
Eighth District and was appointed
Associate Justice ofthe Supreme Court
in December, 1889, by President Har-
rison.
Richard II. Alvey is Democrat in

ability. II was the great reputation
he gained as Judge in the Maryland
courts which led President Cleveland,
in the absence OF political influence on
Judge Alvey's part, to appoint htm to
the position of Chief Justice Of the
Court of Appeals of this DistricU. He
/ is about 60 years of age.
Andrew d. White is Republican
in politics. He is one of the best
known men of letters in this county
and perhaps in the world, is an author
and historian and has been the pre-
sident of Cornell University. Mr..

Frederick r. Coudert is Demo-
nrat in politics and is one of the best
known members of the bar in New
York. Mr.. Coudert was one of the
counsel for the United States on the
Bering Sea commission, and in that
capacity be m ,de ono of the most
eloquent and effective speeches de-

over one hundred aud fifty millions is
held by the banks, leaving three hum
dred and twenty-five millions among
the people. III the Secretary OF the
Treasury would expend as much energy
in exchanging with the people green
backs for this gold that he does in ex-
changing gold for greenbacks with
alien 6nanciers, am OF the opinion
that the exigencies OF the Treasury
might be relieved without a further
issue of bonds.
The gentleman from Maine (Mr.
Dingley( advanced the proposition to
secure this gold by an issue of interest
bearing certificates OF Indebtedness.
In my judgment the object might be-
attained at far less expense by ex-
changing greenbacks which come into
the Treasury for this gold among the
people.
In order to meet the temporary de-
fciency in the Treasury. instead of
interest-bearing obligations to become
a burden upon the people, would sug-
gest certificates be issued against ev-
cry idle ounce of silver left in the
Treasury. This would give instanta-
neous relief and would put into circu;
lation among the people, without the
burden of interest," Il kind OF currency

Final Scenes of the Atlanta EXposi
tiOn,

tIOn,
The final DAY of the Atlanta Exposi-
tion opened with clear sky During
the early morning the temperature
was very low, but after the sun rose the
weather moderated rapid y and the cars
to the exposition were all filed. The
grounds were filed wioh people. In
the buildings many OF the exhibitors
had small harvest in the sale of
souvenirs. while the Chinese village
auctioned off its bric-a-brac. The ex-
hibits were all in good shape and were
not disturbed until after dark. During
the afternoon, the camels and donkeys
of Cairo street were driven out, but
most of the places on the Midway were
wide open and doing good business.
Although the crowd was one of the
largest during December, there was
no ceremonial. ."here had been SO
much OF ceremony heretofore that it
was determined to let the last day be ::
a free and easy affair, SO that the visi.
tors might make the best of their time
in seeing the exhibits.
A dark camo on the beautiful illu-
mination was given and the electric
fountain for the last time displayed it's
charms. Although there was a large
crowd. the best of order prevail

Underthese circumstances do not
hesitate to express the opinion that
the interest OF the State will be best
subserved by reducing the royalty to

market shall improve and higher
