INDIAN FINANCE!
The Money Market Experiences
an Extreme StrinSenCy.
Bill Introduced for Issue Of Currency
Notes Against Gold.
Senafe Confirms Ex-senator Tabor as
Postmaster at Denver.
COMMITTEE RECOMMENDS SANTA N.

Calcutta. Jan. 14.-Sir James Westland,
finance minister Of the council, intro.
duced bill to-day providing for the
issue OF currency notes In India against
gold. Mr.. Arthur, paid secretary Of state
in London, In behalf Of the banks and
chambers OF commerce, indorsed the
measure. The finance minister said the
Indian money market was experiencing
a period Of extreme stringeney. The
local resources were unable 10 supply the
demands OF trade. The scarcity was due
to the banks remitting their capital at
home and keeping as little as possible In
India. This policy was adopted before
the legislation OF 1893, and was not in
consequence OF that legislation.
But while they we're advancing towards
the attainment OF a l6drupee.the success
initiated against the transfer OF sterling
capital to India IN exchange. The banks
must operate upon commercial princi-
pals and no blame was attached 10 them
Sir James Westland denied the allega.
tion that the government was holding
money In order TO starve commerce and
force up exchanges; but recent demands
on the government had been so heavy
that 1t had been obliged to ask the secre-
tary Of state TO intermit the drawings
The mount In hand was ample TO as.
sure the convertlbillty Of the Indian
notes. Therefore there is no risk from
the currency point Of view.

Accident or su,o,deY


When Frank X. Vigil, the deputy sher-
IN Of Valencia county, returned with his
family 10 his home at Los Lunas yester-
day afternoon, he found the door locked,
and upon looking In through the win
dow he saw the body Of Elmore Weir, q
l3-year-old boy, who had been left In
charge OF the house, lying on the floor In
a pool Of blood. Investigation showed
that the boy had shot himself through
the head with a revolver which was
found by his side. The suppOsltlon at
tirst was that IL was an accident, but
other circumstances seemed TO indicate
that II was a case Of suicide. The boy,
who was the son OF Joseph Weir, q car
penter In this city, ran away from home
about year ago and went 10 Los Lunas.
He was taken into the home OF Mr.. Vigil,
where he had since lived. Efforts were
made to ind his parents, but as these
failed, he was probably buried at Los
Lunas to-day.
The CITIZEN learns this afternoon that
william Joseph Weir. the father OF El-
more Weir, the little boy who shot him
self at Los Lunas yesterday, went down
10 Los Lunas this morning aud returned
this afternoon. As II was impossible to
ind him no further facts could be learned
In regard 10 the matter.
