MONEY IN CIRCULATION,
Greatest Per Capita on April 1 known
in Our History.

A table just prepared by the treasury bu-
reau of statistics shows that July 1, 1879
the amount of money in circulation in the
United States was $S1S 631 1893; July i, 1889,
S1,379964 10, and April, 1899, 81 1927 $40
942. No period in our history has shown a
more rapid growth in the money in circu-
lation than the last three years July l
1896, the beginning of the new fiscal year,
the amount in circulation was 81 500 725, 300
BY July 1, 1897, it had reached 81 GAG OBS.
246, an increase of S136,3O3, 046 July l, 1898
it was S1,S43 ,435, I49, an increase for that
year of S13I ,i0I JOB, and al the beginning of
the present month 1t was 81 927 $40 942 an
increase in the nine months of the present
fiscal year of SS4,41f 1913. The increase
since July l, 1896, has been at the rate of
nearly $ooO,OOD for each business day and
during the past year has averaged consid-
erabiy more than 100000 for each bust
ness day.
The per capita circulation April 1. 1899
was the largest ever shown at that period
of the year in the history of our country
AT That GATE 1t was, according to the otficia
statement of the Treasury Department
S2o.4J per CAPITA while that of April l. 1890
was $23;69; April 1, 1897, S23O1, and April /
1896, $21 SO.
The increase in gold coin in circulation
during the past few years has been quite
as remarkable as the general increase in
circulation April l, 1896. the gold coin in
circulation was, according to the treasury
figures, S445, 2,256; April l. 1897, $517 125,-
1911; April l, 1885, S5S2 129 742, and AnriI

SPASIARDS LEAVING CUBA.

dispatch from Havana says: Every now
and again some prominent Spaniard calls
upon General Brooke and endeavors to
learn, in more less diplomatic way,
how long the United States government in
tends to occupy Cuba. Such a caller usual
ly says that his stay will be only as long as
that of the American troops, and that when
they go he will go.
The same sort of questions are asked of
the United States military authorities at
the various provincial capitals and of such
civilian Americans as are supposed to be
coSnizant of the purposes of President Nc
kinley in the main. The Spaniards are APP
parenuy apprehensive as to the future, and
passage to Europe by the French and Span
ish lines is being booked three or four
months ahead. Last month GIGS persons

FOUND DEAD IN BED.
WeII-KnOwn Citizen Dies While |
AlOne-Other Items.


Special Correspondence of The Evening Star.
ROCKVILLE, Nd, April %, 1899.
Mahlon E Cooper, a well-known citizen
of this county, was yesterday found dead
in bed at his home at Hunting Hill. He
had probably been dead several days, as
his body was in a badly decomposed con-
dition. The discovery of his death was
made by young man who was attracted
to the house by the large number of flies
swarming about the windows. There was
nothing to indicate that deceased had met
with any violence, and death is supposed to
have resulted from heart disease.
At the time of his death Mr.. Cooper was
residing alone, a single daughter, who up
to short while ago had been his house
keeper, being i'll in a Baltimore hospital.
Deceased was a blacksmith by occupation.
He was about fifty-ive years of age, and is
survived by several grown children.
The last of the Indebtedness on the new
Rockville Christian Church was recently
paid off, and in commemoration of the
event an interesting and largely attended
thanksgiving service was held in the
sisted principally of songs and prayers and
several addresses, in which all benefactors
were warmly thanked. Revs Bagby,
Wright and Schell of Washington were
present and Joined in the exercises Prof
Trail led the singing.
The new church was built about six years
ago and is an attractive building
The home of Mr.. Charles S. Nichols sit
uated near GAINESVILLE, this county, was
last night completely destroyed by fire,
sparks from the chimney having ignited the
roof Nearly all of the furniture was saved
The loss is about $1,000, fully covered by in
