Worcester morning daily spy. (Worcester, Mass.) 1888-1898, 1898-03-20

ference they were unwilling to make
any definite statement regarding the
meeting. The Spy has it on the best
authority that at the meeting CANCEL
made the statement that he was out of
the Central Massachusetts League.
Furthermore he said that he intended
maintaining an independent team this
season. playing four or five games a
week. He would make Worcester the
headquarters for his mi-professional
team and would probably play at least
half of his games in this city on the
Oval
Further than this little could be
learned. In forsaking the Central Mas
sachusetts League for independent base
ball, Cancel is evidently following in
Manager Rice's lead, The latter was
opposed to the formation of a league at
the meeting a week ago, and withdrew
as soon as the league was organized.
The first knowledge that any Of the
members of the new league had Of Gan
zells step, or of his conference with
Manager Rice, was received from the
Spy man. Unanimously they were Of
the opinion that this would be a serious
blow to the new organization, although
they would not admit that it would re-
result in killing the Central Massachu-
sets League.
In conversation with a preventative
of the Spy, late Saturday evening, Man
ager George H. Spaulding Of the MARI
boros, who has been instrumental in get
ting the league started, said he was to-
tally unaware that Cancel contem-
plated any such move. 81 am not real
ly surprised, however to hear that this
is so. CANCEL has undoubtedly been
persuaded by Manager Rice, who has
been hostile to the league all along, to
swing out from us and play independent
ball" continued the Marlboro manager.
'If it proves true and the league goes
under, can tell you right now that they
will have to look a good while before
| they can arrange any games with my
team. l shall call a meeting of the di-
| rectors in my office in Worcester for
Tuesday afternoon to talk over the mat

Dave Leahy says that when Stanley
was a Wichita Police Commissioner,
James Cairns, bankrupt liquor dealer,
came to him and offered to close the
joints for $1,000. Stanley secured his
appointment as Chief Of Police and he
started around levying tribute on the
Joints until he had collected all Of the
bills which were due him. They
amounted to $1,000. He then told the
jointists that they must close for three
days, to further some point which the
commissioners desired to make. When
they closed Stanley called and held a
song and praise service because the
town had been cleaned up. The $1,000
was then paid to Cairns, and the next
day the joints opened up again Shortly
after Cairns resigned, giving as his rea-
son a statement that he was unable to
keep the saloons closed. Leahy was a
Wichita reporter at the time and says
that there is no mistake about the state
ments.

DIRECTOR ROBERTS'S REPORT.
Years Deposits of Gold Bullion
Largest In Americans History

George E. Roberts director, OF the mint,
in his report for the fiscal year endei
June 20. 1898. shows in detail the opera
,ions of the institutions under. his charge
and also statistics of coinage production
and monetary conditions of foreign coun-
tries '''',-
The deposits of gold bullion at the
mints and assay offices of the United
States during the fiscal year ended June
20, 1895. We're the largest in the history OF
this country. Exclusive of redeposits,
they were of the value of si47. .693 lie. S.
against sS7 ,eC5SSI.r in the previous year
The most important events of the fiscal
year in the world OF government finance
have been the consummation of the long
planned resumption of specie payments
by RUSSO in gold, the reorganization of
the monetary system of Japan with gold
as the standard. and the refusal of the
government Of India to cooperate with
the Government OF the United States and
France in an effort to establish bimetal-
lism by International agreement. These
occurrences are treated separately and in
detail
The gold coinage of the world in 1897
was the largest recorded. amounting in
value to siS.. 1ls $40. The extraordinary
coinage of the year is accounted for by
the preparations of Russia, Austria Hun
gary and Japan for their monetary re-
forms.
Great as was the worlds production OF
gold in 1897. amounting to the value of
$2SI. .50i. 800. and exceeding that of 1885 by
sG4, So. go. it is, judging by the returns
already at hand, certain that the product
of 1895 will be still greater Estimates
already at hand would indicate a world 5
product in 1928 of s2s3 1872 800
The product of 1881 $50 eco coo. will be
more than doubled, and the combined
value of the gold and silver product ten
years ago exceeded by gold alone.
Discussing the increased yield of gold
disposition as follows:
THE worlds production of gold in the
last five years, according to the annual
estimates of the bureau of mint. has
amounted to ss11. .622,fGo. The industrial
consumption has been about s3l9Ge1.cgo
Stocks of gold In European hanks and
Government treasures from December
1892, 10 December. 1897 increased about
$3.50. 0o9 600. or over 40 per cent. The stock
of gold in the United States increased
in the five years s95. 49,, Go. The gold hold
ings of the banks of Australia. Canada
and South Africa increased about sI5 Geo.
