GOLD FOR AMERICA.
The Price of silver Again Declines on Ad'
verse News from India.

The Price of Silver Again Declines on Ad-
verse News from India.
LONDON, Oct. 1.-THE resumption of
the gold shipments has changed the
outlook for the money market. Grain
shipments from the United States are
now large and cotton also is en- route,
while there is little, if any offset in the
way of American purchases in this
market. So far, indeed, as stock oper-
atoms are concerned, special remit
tances in cash are being made to New
York in connection with the coming
sale of the Union Pacific railroad.
These circumstances combine to in
dicate a somewhat large drain of gold
and an advance in the bank rate, al
though the American demand will
doubtless be met to some extent from
Paris, French purchases of wheat be-
ing considerable. A moderate rise in.
the value of money is probable. Dis
count is rather firmer. The banks are
not taking paper freely, though
money remains in good supply at one
per cent. for week. Bar silver is 11<
pence per ounce lower, owing to the
general belief that the Indian govern
ment has definitely refused to reopen
the Indian mints to the free coinage of
silver. If this belief is well founded,
all the negotiations of the American
bimetallic commissioners may be con-
sidered at an end.

Details Show that Her Departure was Care

HAVANA, Oct. 9.-The escape of
Senorita Evangelina Cossio. otherwise
Cossio Cisneros, has caused quite a
sensation in Havana The investiga-
ton made by the interesting has de-
veloped a number of additional facts
in the case. It is now asserted
that the young woman escaped
between IL o'clock and midnight
of Wednesday, over the roof of
a neighboring house, and through
it to the street below-O'Farrell Lane
and not into the street where the police
found hand ladder. On the roof of
the adjoining house the authorities
found three planks. each about three
feet long and Is inches wide, joined to-
Rether by strong hinges, so as to serve
as a bridge, enabling a person to pass
from the roof of the prison to the roof OF
the house referred to. The authorities
also found on the roof a Smith & Wes-
son revolver and new knotted rope,
which had evidently been used as a
life line or guiding rope to enable the
escaping prisoner to cross the plank
bridge which had been extended by
her accomplices from the house near
the Casa de Recojidas to the roof oi
that prison.
The revolver, the knotted rope and
the portable bridge, as well as other
discoveries made by the police, show
that the escape of Senorita Cossio was
long and carefully planned.
She must have been in constant com
munication with those who enabled
her to escape.

in the preparation for publication o1;
the volume known as Commercial Re-
lations of the United States embody-
ing annual reports from United States
consuls in every country in the world
upon the trade conditions IN their re-
spective districts.
Within the past three years the
quality and the value of this annual
publication to the business interests OF
the country have improved IN an as
tonishing degree, owing to careful se-
lection of material. patient suggesuon
to consuls of information likely 10 oe
desired, and the addition of a compen-
iious and thorough review prepared oy
the chief of the bureau, setting OUT
conclusions as to general trade Ten
denotes that may be impartiaily drawn
from the vast store of matter suppleo-
by the consuls.
The Forthcoming volume is OF lar
ger scope even than its predecessors,
and instead of being little more than
the dry compilation of figures that IT,
formerly was, the Commercial keIa--
tions" for 1867 will present a mass OF
information of such variety as to be
valuable and interesting not only To-
exporting merchants, but to puohc
men, to manufacturers and to technical
workers.
An indication of the character OF the
work is afforded by the extra'etions
that have been made from the reports
received within the last week only ana
have been given the benefit of advance
publication.
From Hanover comes an account OF
the installation of an electric railway
for handling heavy freight, sugges-

LONDON, Oct. 1.-THE Times, in its
financial article this morning, ex.
presses the belief that so far as the
Bank of England is concerned nothing
more will be heard of the offer to hold
silver as portion of the reserve. Pro-
ceeding, it says it deplores the "mis-
chievous" effect that the governors
letter has had abroad, aud it quotes at
length from letter written by big
American manufacturer, whose name
is not given, dilating upon and regret
ting the fact that the banks offer was
to some extent a confession of the ad-
visibility of what Mr.. Bryan had
claimed.

MADRTB, Oct. 9.-The cabinet has de-

Gen. Weyler from Cuba. A decree
will be issued appointing Capt--Gen'
Blanco Arenas. marquis of Pena-
Plata, governor-general of the island.
The queen regent will sign the decree
to-day.
According to El Heraldo, 10000 re-
Inducements will accompany Gen.
Blanco to Cuba
In the course of the cable message
sent by Capt-Gen. Weyler to Premier
Sagasta, placing his position in Cuba
at the disposal of the government he
said:
IF the functions with which they
had intrusted me had been merely
those of governor general OF Cuba,
should have hastened to resign. But
the two-fold character of my mission
and my duty as commander-in-chief In
the face of the enemy, prevent my
rendering my resignation.
Nevertheless, although can rely
upon the absolute, unconditional sup
port of the autonomist and constitu-
tional parties as well as upon public
opinion, this would be insufficient
without the confidence of the govern
ment now more than ever necessary to
me after the censure of which have
been made the object by the members
and journals of the liberal party and
by public opinion in the United States,
which latter is largely Influenced by
the former. The confidence would be
necessary to enable me to put an end
to the war, which has already been
virtually concluded from our lines at
Juraco to Cape Antonio"
Senior Sagasta replied:
II thank you for your explanation
and value your frankness. l wish to
assure you that the government recog-
nizes your services and values them as
they deserve, but it thinks change OF
policy, in order to succeed, requires
that the authorities should be at one
with this ministry. This has nothing
to do with the confidence felt in you
by the government, for the liberals
have always said that the RESPONSE
bility for given policy does not fall
upon those who carry it out. but upon
the government inspiring it. / shall
communicate your communication tc
the government shortly"
Gen, Weyler Denies Reports that He
Would Resist Removal.
| HAVANA, Oct. 9.-Gen. Weyler gave
| Yesterday an emphatic and absolute
denial TO the reports that he would re
sist removal from his command IL
