would receive his silver. M
zone year later he or some one else
brings these certificates back to tho
treasury FOR redemption, Silver has
doubled In value. He would receive for
them fifty ounces OF silver. The treas

these or some othsr fifty dollars the
treasurer would purchase In. the open
markets nifty ounces OF silver and cover
1t into the treasury. That would close
one transaction. What is the result,

ties for a long time was that OF yester-
day afternoon when woman prob
ably twenty.elght years old entered the
Office OF the clerk OF the county COM

carried in her arms a little baby girl,
not more than q month old. Her story
told to clerkMoftat and the reporter was
one fua OF pity, and was OF such char
acter that It was with an effort that
tho few other gentlemen in the office
could keep back the tears.
She said her name was Mary Holden
and her home was In Harrisburg, Pa,
where she lived until about q, year and
a half ago. Her husband, whose name
Is Thomas Holden, is a brlcklayer by
trade. and from the time of their mar
rage, about seven years dgo, until a
short time since. had always made a
good living for her. A little over q year
ago her husband was thrown out OF
employment and hearing that men were
wanted at or near Hinton. w. Va. went
there. He worked for some time, but
was once more thrown out with a num-
Der OF other men. About q month ago
q baby girl was born and there was
hardly mouthful In the house for the
mother or any clothes to protect the
new born babe from the chill wlntry

PEACE EXPECTED
THIS WEEK
The Latest Version of McKinley's Terms
-CambOn instructed to Accept
Any Terms that are Honorable
War Appears Practically Ended.

New York, July 30.-Peace will in all
probability have been attained between
the United States and Spain within a
week. 1t was learned by the Journals
Washington correspondent from the
very best authority after meeting of the
Cabinet Counsel today that Cambon,
French minister to Washington. had
been made envoy extraordinary to ar
ange peace details for Spain with the
United States. Terms will probably De
the cession of Porto Rico to the United
States, independence of Cuba under
American jurisdiction until Cubans have
manifested their ability to form stable
government, evacuation by Spain of all
other islands in the West Indies and
commission to settle disposition of con-
quered Spanish islands in the Orient.
This will not mean evacuation of the
PHILIPPINES, Ladrones and Carolines by
American troops, at least not until after
the question of coaling stations in those
places for the United States is settled by
the Commission. Cambon is instructed
to accept almost any terms that are
honorable.

dition--Morgan City, City of Para, Ohio
and Valencia--are expected in a few
days. The vessels all left Honolulu to-
gether; but an accident occurred to the
Ohio, and all the transports, except the
Newport, turned back.
General Merritt has sent an import
ant cable to Washington and to Gener-
ais Merriam and Miller at San Francisco,
but the contents have not been made
public here.
General Merritt believes that the
monitor Monterey is now. at Guam ISL
and, one of the Ladronne group, and
expects her along in few days.
The General has had an extended
conhab with Admiral Dewey, and in his
letter said they would rather wait for
the arrival of the Monterey before max
ing an attack on Manila.
Captain General Augustin still enter
tains false hopes of relief by the Spanish
feet.
There are all kinds of rumors afloat.
Aguinaldo, the insurgent leader. is
showing his fangs to the Yankees. He
has done everything in his power to de-
lay and harrass the Americans, and
there is no doubt that Admiral Dewey
would enjoy a crack at the impudent,
ungrateful, self-styled dictator as much
as he enjoyed the downfall of>Montojo' 8
feet.
Owing to the blockade, provisions in
Manila are selling at enormous price,.
The belief is growing that the Spanish
will surrender upon the demand from
Dewey.

OF
IRON AND STEEL
Contractors Unable Promptly to Fill
All Their Orders.

CHICAGO, July 3O.-Iron and Steel to-
day says:
Whatever may be the trade in Amer
ican iron and steel-and that question
is now a most vital one-there can be
no uncertainty about the domestic con-
sumption. Within the past week con.
ditions among some of the sellers, vino
weeks or months ago booked many or
ders for future delivery, have been
growing more serious. The buyers
wanted the material they had bargained
for; they, in many instances, wanted it
in even larger quantities than they had
arranged to receive it; and when in re-
ply to their specifications they were
favored with explanations, excuses and
promises, their business became more
or less deranged.
1t is remarkable that quite number
of the large consumers of iron and steel
are now running their works day and
night. Their surplus product has been
