WANT THE INJUNCTION MODIFIED.
Change in the Order of the Court Prevent
ing Interference With the Water Main
Will Be Asked for.

The city council held an informal
meeting Saturday evening to discuss
certain matters with it's special at
torney, ID. II. Calhoun. Those pres
ent were Aldermen Lane, Martin,
Peterson and Moeglefn.
After discussing at considerable
length the Electric & Water suits,
during which Attorney Calhoun ex-
planned the PRESENT situation Of the
suits, the Broadway bridge matter
was taken up.
Some time ago the council began
proceedings to order the water main
taken off the Broadway bridge, and
the Electric 4 Water company secured
an order from the United States dis
trict court restraining the city from
interfering with the pipe.
TO make the repairs on the bridge,
which the council deem necessary, it
will be necessary to have the pipe
temporarily removed from the
bridge. This cannot be done unless
the court modifies it's restraining
order. Attorney Calhoun thought
the matter could be arranged with
the attorneys representing the com
pany by a special stipulation. The
council is willing that the pipe should
he under the bridge and is willing to
agree to have the bridge so arranged
when repaired that the water main
can be placed under the bridge floor
but supported by the bridge.
1.-the Electric 4 Water company
does not agree to this proposal the
court will be asked to modify it's
Injunction 50 that the bridge can be
repaired. Attorney Calhoun was
instructed to correspond at once
with Attorney Severance, OF st. Paul.
on the proposition the council was
willing to make and see what could
be done in the matter.
A majority of the members OF the
council are, without doubt, in favor
of retimbering the bridge as they
consider it impracticable to build a
new one at present. They also
think that by raising the superstruc-
ture about four feet that the water
main can easily be put underneath
the bridge.
Plans and specified lions for the re-
pairs con templated will he prepared,
and another special meeting OF the
city council has been called by the
mayor for this evening to more fully
consider the matter, although no
definite action will be taken until the
Injunction matter is settled.

The Minneapolis Journals
Washington correspondent pre-
diets that the financial legisla,
ton of the coming congress will
include three provisions. First,
the secretary of the treasury
will be authorized to suspend
the reissue of greenbacks when
there is 4 run on the treasury
for gold. Second, there will be
legislation that will prevent the
president or secretary from put
ting the finances on silver
basis. Third, the volume OF
currency will be increased by
allowing national banks to issue
currency to the full value of
government bonds deposited, in
stead of 80 per cent, as now.

GOLD is REFUSED.
Uncle Sam Will Not Now Take It In
Exchange For Silver.

Washington, Sept. Pat may be an
astonishing statement to say that the
United States government refuses to
accept gold of its own coinage in ex-
change for silver dollars, but that is
what at least one sub-treasury is ac-
tualIy doing.
The complaint comes from St. Louis,
where the subtreasurer declines to eX-
change silver dollars except for silver
certificates. Neither gold nor bank
notes will tempt the white coins from
his vaults.
1t is quite possible for the United
States treasury to reach a point where
a general order will be issued to all sub
treasurers fOrbidding them to exchange
silver dollars for gold, national bank
notes or any other form of currency ex-
cept silver certificates.
While the treasury has in its vaults
gold to the enormous total of $342 96l, -
64S. of which $3.50 022. S99 is not covered
by gold certificates, and while this daZ-
cling hoard is steadily growing larger,
there is a famine of silver dollars The
country is doing such a tremendous
business that the people are raven
ously hungry for money of small de-
nominations. In the east there is a
special demand for 81 and 81 bills In
the west silver dollars have been drawn
from the SubtreaSurieS until their
stocks are about exhausted. In all sec
tons there is such a demand for frac-
tiOnal silver that the government sup
ply will soon be eaten up if the present
rate of call keeps up.
The treasury has on hand S406.516, 436
in silver dollars, but the most of these
must be retained in the vaults for the
redemption of the silver certificates,
which aggregate $406 1877, 5O4 This
leaves $38S, 932 in silver dollars in the
treasury and its branches that are not
covered by notes.
It is true that there are on hand Ger
tifcates to the amount of 1891. 80 but
these might all go out on the day of
some heavy payments, and the treas
ury officials take the uncovered silver
dollars as their guide. It is therefore
conceivable that the government might
pay out valuable silver dollars in it's
possession when it would be compelled
to refuse to accept gold in exchange for
any of the 406 600 900 silver dollars COW
cred by certificates.
This is not q fanciful statement. for
on last Monday the uncovered silver
dollars were as low as 81, 001. Last Feb
ruary the treasury had more than 3000,-
900 of uncovered silver dollars, and even
that number was considered small.
The cry for money for making change
is we'll indicated by the fact that of the
fourteen presses at the Philadelphia
mint, seven are running steadily on s.
cent pieces. The minis have on hand
about $1,O09,000 in abraded fractional
silver that is being recoined, but the
country is taking these small coins
about as fast as they can be turned
out.
The treasury stock of fractional silver
is down to So, ass, 899, and there is no law
for buying any more bullion for this
coinage.
Government officials fear the entire
stock of small silver will be called into
circulation before congress can take ac-
ton to meet the great demand.
