VERMONTERS GET BONDS.
Whole Issue Nets tho Government SILL.
900 600 Morgnn's Lump.

Washington, Feb. 9.-The allotment of
the new 4 per cent bonds was made yes
terday afternoon at the treasury depart
ment, and gives nearly four-ffths of the
entire amount, or s7S,004. $40, to New York.
This Is regarded as an indication that
many bids from other cities were made
through New York banks and brokers, SO
that the official distribution is not a very
accurate measurement OF the actual dis
tribution throughout the country when
the bonds finally reach the hands of the
successful bidders. The proceeds of the
bond sale will be close to Sill. OOO, 900. They
cannot be less than Sic, 6s7, 700, because
that would have been the amount If the
entire award had been made to the Nor
gan syndicate. and every bid accepted at
above that rate increases the net proceeds
OF the sale. 1t is possible that the pro-
ceeds Will go slightly above Sill 900, 900,
put, for practical purposes. that will be
the amount covered into the treasury as
the result of the new issue

d. d. RANLETT'S OPINION.

Boston, Feb. 6.-Treasurer and Director
ID. ID. Ran.ett of the Central Vermont
Railroad company writes in regard to the
effect upon his road of the opening of st.
Adams and Richford for the entry of
Canadian cattle destined to European
points, as follows:
This matter has long been urged on the
attention Of the government by Mr.. Small
ley, the present collector of this port, and
for some years a director in the Central
Vermont railroad.
"As this business has been going by the
way of Portland and has furnished quite
a large return to the steamers sailing
from that port, we are very hopeful that
with the opening of the port of st. Adams
quite an increase in the revenues of our
road will result thercfrom and that the
Grand Trunk railway will be ready to CO.
operate with us to that end"

CREATES MUCH SURPRISE.
GEN. HARRlSoN'S WITHDRAWAL NOT
EXPECTED.
Senator Thurston Says Mckinley Strength
in tho west is Steadily Growing-sena-
tors Inclined to be Quiet About
the Matter.

New York, Feb 4.--The Mail and Ex-
press this afternoon prints the following:
Senator John M. Thurston of Nebraska.
who was among this mornings early ar
rivals at the Fifth Avenue Hotel, express
ed considerable surprise at Gen. Harri-
sons letter forbidding the use of his name
before the St. Louis convention.
There can be no doubt of the generals
earnestness however. said the senator.
He Is a perfectly sincere man and those
who know him best will understand that
he means just what he says. He Is out
of the field and no man who values his
good will should attempt to drag him in
again.
Gen. Harrison's withdrawal will make
no change in the political situation in Ne
braska. We are all formed and neither
the appearance of new candidates nor tho
disappearance of old ones will affect our
course. McKinley's strength in the West
is growing steadily and will continue to
do so. The movement Is quiet, but de-
termined and active and has already made
great Roadway in certain Western States
which are generally counted as solid for
other candidates.
SENATORS ARE QUIET
Washington, Feb. 4.-Many senator's de-
cline to discuss the effect of the withdraw
al of ex-President Harrison from the list
OF presidential candidates, but the cham
pions of the other candidates, on the
floor of the Senate are evidentally pleased
at the action of Mr.. Harrison. Among
those who did talk was Mr.. Quay. rep,
Pennsylvania. He said:
MIR. Harrison's action, as j look at the
situation, helps Mckinley for the reason
that many of the men who have been
claiming to be Harrison men, were at
heart Mckinley men and have not been
sincere in their, advocacy of Mr.. Harri-
son. They have been for the Ohio cand!-
date and now that Mr.. Harrison has taken
this step they will be able to come out in
the open and announce themselves and
work for the man of their real choice
Mckinley Is, therefore, the chief recip-
lent of the benefits to be derived from the
withdrawal of Mr.. Harrison"

MR.. HARRlSON'S WITHDRAWAL

Indianapolis Feb. Accommodating on
ex-Presldent Harrisons letter, Hon. G..
w. Fairbanks said: II regret 1t very
much. The country would have been
much better off with Mr. Harrison nomi-
mated and elected. Indiana would I'M
questionably have sent a united and en-
thusastic delegation to St. Louis for him,
but with Harrison out of the race. 1t is
impossible at this time to predict what
the delegation is likely to do"
Hon. II. II. Nebekcr, of Covington, said
TT does not surprise me greatly for |
have known Gen. Harrison's sentiment to
be in line with his letter for long time.
II is difficult to tell who the Indiana dele
CATION is likely to favor at ST. Louis"
The chairman of the republican State
committee said: Il am sorry to hear OF
this letter 1t will now be a race In this
State that will be holly contested. AS far
as l know the State will be evenly d.
vided between Allison. Reed. and Nc
Kinley. All three have strong friends in
different parts Of the state"
MCKINLEY WILL NOT TALK.

last night he did not care to discuss the
action of Harrison.
HOPEFUL FOR M'KINLEY.
Cincinnati, Feb. 4.-Senator -eleot j. Il.
Foraker. said: IT never thought Harri-
son was a candidate In the ordinary sense
of such a candidacy. I am surprised, how
ever, that he seems to debar himself from
accepting the nomination. An emergency
may arise in which he might be desired by
the convention.
Il think his declination strengthens Nc
Kinley's chances as the States are neigh
borly and likely to have the same prefer
ence."
Foraker is quite seriously i'll with ton
