DEPOSITS OF GOLD.
Coming In from Abroad to Pay for the
New Honda.

New York, Jan. 13.-The total de-
poslts of gold at the sub-treasury to-
day amounted to S1,7O0,OOO In Ameri-
can gold coin, and In addition there
was deposited at the assay office $780,
900 In gold bars and foreign coin. n
total of $24O0.OOO. All of the gold has
been imported, and In no single In
stance We're grecnbacks taken In eX-
change. The presumption Is that the
various amounts will be use l to pay
for the subscriptions to the new gov
eminent loan. The gold was deposited
for examination. Only United States
gold coin is received at the sub-trcas-
ury. and no charge Is made for exami-
nation. Foreign gold coin and bars
are received at the assay Office, subject
to the usual charge for treatment and
mintage A withdrawal was made to-
day from the sub-treasury of S5OO,Wo
In gold coin. There was some conten-
ton rs to whether the amount taken
out figured against the treasury ne,
serve. as It was claimed the gold was
part of n sum deposited last week for
examination by firm of bullion
brokers' II is understood the gold was
finally deposited In the Bank of New
York.

RED GROSS SHUT OUT.
TURKEY WON'T HAVE

ArmsniAns With Contributions from
the Porte's Enemies.

Washington, Jan. 13.-The Turkish
legation announces that the Imperial
government will not permit the dlstri-
button In Turkey by any foreign So
ciety or individuals OF any money col
lected abroad. This applies to the Red
Cross society which is instanced In the
announcement.
The Turkish legation gave out this
afternoon the following official COM
munication: 1.-THE imperial govern
ment will not permit any distribution
among subjects In his own territory, by
any foreign society or individuals now
ever respectable same may be las Tor
instance the Red Cross society, OF
money collected abroad. Such inter
ference no independent government
has ever allowed. especially when the
collections are made on the strength OF
speeches delivered in public meetings
by irreconcilable enemies of the Turk
ish race and religion and on the basis
OF false accusations that Turkey re-
pudiates. Besides the sublime porte
Ia mindful of the true interests or It's
subjects and distinguishing between
the real state OF affairs and the calum-
MES and wild exaggerations of inter-
ested or fanatical parties, us 1t has
done before under Its own legitimate
channel, alleviate the wants OF Turk
ish subjects living In certain provinces
irrespective of creed or race"
The cablegram made public by the
Turkish minister tonight, containing
an official announcement from the sub
lime porte. that the Red Cross society
would not be allowed to distribute
funds In Armenia created considerable
discussion here. Miss Clara Barton,
the president of the Red Cross society
refused to make any statement on that
subject, and Mr.. George Pullman, her
private secretary, said the society had
received no official notice that 1t would
not be permitted to act In Armenia
and that until 1t did so. no statemenl
would be made. If an official an
nouncement regarding the matter was
received, 1t would be referred to the
executive committee of the associa
ton and he would not predict wha'
course they would pursue.

sPANIARDS AFRAID.
DREAD UNCLE SANS WAR SHIPS
Placing Torprdoes In the Harbop Of Ha.
vana-ThouEht That Our Govsrnmsnt
May Interfere.

Chicago, Jan. ia special from
Washington says: Torpedoes are being
planted In the harbor OF Havana, and
heavy siege guns are being placed in
position.
This was the private Information re
ceived by the Cuban junta ind given
out by Senior iiubens last night. As the
insurgents have not ship afloat the
inference is irresistible that Spain ex-
poets interference by the United States,
and is preparing to defend the capital
from attack by sea. Action by the
United States looking to the recognition
of the belligerent rights of the insur-
gents may be nearer than Is generally
expected.
1t is stated on apparently good author
ity that President Cleveland's Xenesae-
Ian message was artbHSle -barreled at
fair, wlAcn MT Salisbury in two places
cet agents of the Cuban government,
Spain Is ut the end of Its resources, and
will have to suspend specie payments
entirely within the next thirty days.
With bankruptcy staring 1t In the face,
Spain, 1t is said, made a proposition to
sell the island of Cuba to Great Britain.
Lord Salisbury, 1t is intimated. accord
ing TO Cuban authority, sounded tht
United States on the subject, and the
reply was President Cleveland's vigor-
Gus enuncation of the Monroe doctrine.
The Senate committee on foreign re-
lations has been holding several confer
enccs of late Senator Davis Of Mime
sofa, as the head Of subcommittee
having the matter In charge, Is now
drawing up Il formal definition of the
Monroe doctrine. which expands the
original declaration. and makes 1t clear
as the formal doctrine OF the American
Congress. Those who claim to know
say that this declaration is intended TO
meet both the Cuban and Venezuelan
cases.
As the dry season ends in March, 1t
is now said that If Spain does not sue
coed in stopping the rebellion by that
time, the United States will certainly
recognize the insurgents as bclligercnts.
The Cuban colony is in ferment over
the rumors that recognition by the
United States is at last at hand.

SENATOR JONES OF NEVADA.
He VIII Act with the silver Mon for .
Free Coinage Bill.

He VIII Act with the silver Mon for .
Free Coinage Bill.
Washington, Jan. 13.-It Ia under
stood about the Senate that Senator
Jones of Nevada is quite as anxious to
serve the cause Of silver In connection
with the tariff bill as he is to promote
the sugar interest. Many Of the silver
men are of the opinion that the plan Of
the anti-silver Republicans is to get the
house tariff bill through both houses
and have 1t sent to the president, by
whom they think 1t will be vetoed.
This would raise the tariff question
and have tendency to make 1t the sole
issue in the approaching campaign.
The silver Republicans suspect that
this is the wish of their anti-silver col
leagues and some of the former c.ass
are determined to, IL possible, prevent
the contamination OF this sch.me.
They think this can be done by putting
n free coinage amendment on the tariff
bill, and it is altogether probable that
an effort will be made In that dtrec-
ton.
1t is considered more than probable
that Senator Jones would cooperate
Heartily with his Republican silver
friends In this direction. He is acting
as Popullst, and 1t is remembered In
this connection that the POpulists In
their caucus few weeks since de-
clared for silver amendment In the
tariff, as well as on the bond bill. 1t IL
also considered good tactics In the fight
for the silver substitute bond bill to
hold the tariff bill In suspense for the
present

that the Insurgents will not leave the
