COLD CERTIFICATES IN DEMAND.


washington. Nov. S5.--The secretary OF
the treasury Is considering the question
Of res1Ininx the issuance OF gold cerfih-
Gates which was suspended In i&s. when
the gold reserve iirsi fell below the slto.-
op.se1 mark. The Issue OF these certn-
Gates was suspended as a means Of acqair-
ing god Ia she treasury. Thsre ire l. had
been the custom of the treasury TO issue
certificates on the deposit Of gold. but
sueb gold deposit did not become part or
the gold reserve. By susrending the issue
Of those certificates. many holders OF gold.
rather than hold e. exchanged IL for legal
tenders and treasury notes. which. under
the ruling OF the department being gold
OBLIGATIONS. practically subserved their
purposes. hut the treasury On receipt OF
gold SO discharged was enabled TO add II
10 the gold reserve. As long as the treas
ury adhered 10 its policy Of receemlng
legal tenders and treasury notes In gold.
the holders of such notes could obtain
gold on demand as readily as on gold GER
tlfcates. However. gold holders would
prefer the gold certificates.
Since the election and gradual increase
Of the gold reserve such holders believe
that there Is no reason why the issue OF
gold certificates should not be resumed.
The matter IL now before Secretary Car
isle and probably will be decided upon
the return of Assistant Secretary Curtis
from New York. II Is understood that
Mr. Carlisle II not favorahly disposed To-
ward the resumption. The issue Of cur
r.ncy certificates under the act OF is.2
never has been suspended.

CHALLENGER IN COLLISION.
Seattle Schooner Injured ~ the Col
den Gate.


den Gate.
San Francisco. Nov. 2b.--The schooner
Challenger. seventeen days from Seattle.
when bound In collided just outside the
bar with an unknown steamer. The Chal-
lenger made the bay safely. and Tor
a while anchored In the stream. Her
pumps were kept working to keep down
the water that flowed into the hold at the
rate of nearly twelve inches an hour. This
morning the vessel was put on the mud
fats.
The damage TO the schooner has not
yet been estimated. The rore-shrouds were
carried away. together with the channels
and a portion of the rail. The unknown
steamer did not appear to be damaged
as she steamed slowly away and evinced
no disposition to stand by and render as
sisrance. A good deal OF speculation Is
INDUCED in concerning the identity OF the
steamer. Ii is believed 10 be either the
Alice Blanchard. which sailed last even
ing for the North, or the Crescent City.
which also put out of port soon after the
sun went down The Crescent City did
not pass Point Reyes until O'Clock this
morning. bat her slowness is probably
due 10 the fact that she hove TO TO ride
out a stiff gale that was blowing last ev-
ening.
Capt. Soverud OF the Challenger says
a heavy storm was blowing outside when
the accident occurred and the night was
very dark.
