TREASURY STOCK DRAINED.
Because Of tho Demand for Small Coi1
Abraded Dimes, Nickels and PEN
MES Arc Sent Out.

Washington, Sept. 26.-Never in the
history of the country has there been
SO much small coin in circulation.
There is now in circulation about S73,-
600, 600 worth of half-dollars, quarters
and dimes. There has been much COM
plant recently of the circulation Of
old, worn coin, and nearly everyone
who receives small change nowadays is
compelled to examine it in order to es-
cape receiving that which will not pass
current. The reason for tbs circula-
ton of abraded coin is the d. a; lg of
the treasury stock. Much of this old
currency was presented for redemption
in gold, under; the resumption act Of
1879 and has been held in the treasury
ever since. Under the stress of the
tremendous demand for small coin this
has been going out and is again doing
duty.
The treasury, of course, redeems all
of this worn coin and great deal of it
has been recoined, but the minis are
not able to keep up with the demand.
The demand in the retail trade for
nickles and pennies has also brought
out old coin of that description. Cents
of the mintage of 1862, and even before
that date, have been met with in con-
siderable quantities lately. They are
thicker than the penny pieces now
minted and of lighter color.

THE LAST OFFER TO KRUGER.
c-eat Britain Announces That It VIII Now
Formulate Its Own Plan for tho
Trausvaal.

London, Sept. 26.-The officials of
the foreign office gave out last night the
text of the letter of the secretary of
state for the colonies, Mr.. Chamber
lain. to the British high commissioner
in South Africa, dated September %.
The British reply expresses regret that
her majesty's offer, No. 5. of Septem-
Der had been refused, and says:
The refusal Of the South African government
to entertain the offer thus made, coming as it
does after four months Of protracted negotia-
tons, themselves the climax OF hve years
of extended agitation. makes 1t useless
to further pursue the discussion upon
the lines hitherto followed, and the Inn.
perial government >is now compelled to
consider the stu ton afresh and formulate its
own proposals for final settlement OF the Is
sues which have been ere ted in South Africa
by the policy constantly followed for many
years by the government OF South Africa They
will communicate the result of their delibera-
tons in a later dispatch.

THE TROPICAL HURRICANE.
That the Loss of Property Will Amount
to at Least 05,OOO,OOO.

Washington, Sept. 26.-Consul Ayme
reports to the state department from
Guadalupe that the loss of property
from the recent tropical hurricane
amounts to at least $1,000. 600. Forty
deaths and over 200 seriously wounded
are reported from various parts of the
island. The city is a mass of
wreckage, while the harbor front
is lined with the debris of large
and small boats. The consul says the
fruit crop is total loss and that fam
inc threatens the island. He says the
series of misfortunes which this island
has passed through, earthquakes, de-
structive fires and a financial crisis,
probably will force the colony to APP
peal to the outside world for assistance.

Volunteers Mustered Out.

San Francisco, Sept. 26.-The Idaho
and North Dakota volunteers were
mustered out of the service of their
country at the Preside yesterday. The
ceremonies were very impressive. The
commanding Officers of each company
addressed the soldiers, commencing
them for their gallant service and ex-
horting them to forever cherish the
memories of the past year and to re-
turn to civil life and to take up the
thread of domesticity where it was
broken off by the call of their country
for their aid.

Sugar Rect Culture.

Scores of farmers in the vicinity Of
Rockford. Ill, have the past summer
been experimenting on the culture of
sugar beets. and tests show that the
country is In the sugar belt. Business
men of Rockford win probably erect q
$500, 900 sugar beet plant Instead Of
paying out $a00. 900 year for sugar, it
Is argued that with access to cheap
fuel, near the center Of population and
near the enormous markets of Chicago,
this 5000. 900 could be kept at home and
enough sugar sold outside to bring in
$3.50, 600 per year.

Nav Lead to AnnexatIon.

The color line which has suddenly re-
vealed itself in Cuban politics raises an
issue which may be relied upon to aid
the movement for annexation which is
gaining strength every day in the
island. One of the most important
papers in Havana warns the negroes
of Cuba that though they are in the
majority numerically. they will be de-
MED social and political equality if i'm
dependence comes. If this equality
should be denied them in case the
island gets a separate existence civil
war would be certain to take place.

Too Many Wives Drove Him Crazy.
The shah of Persia has become in
sane. He is one of the most interest
ing Oriental despots in the world, more
90 in many respects than the sultan OF
Turkey. because less subject to Euro
pean and other outside Influences.
The cause of his insanity is said to be
the immense numb of his wives. Ac-
cording to the last accounts they num-
bered 500. The difficulty of caring for
them in the manner prescribed by the
customs of Persia has wrecked the un.
happy despot's mind.

Conforms to Omolal Etiquette.

President Mckinley conforms to Of
dcial etiquette in declining TO assist
in the ceremonies attending the well
come to Admiral Dewey in New York
harbor. An army or naval official calls
upon the president. the latter never
making a call except to board a ship
for a cruise or for sightseeing. The of
fetal welcome to the hero of Manila
bay by the president of the United
States must take place at the white
house, and the admiral must call there
for that purpose.

quered the worst cases of constipation, dys-

EAGAN TAKES
1T ALL BACK
Withdraws the Objectionable Portion
From His Statement.

WASHINGTON. Jan. 16.-Commissarv-
General Egan today sent to the war in
vestigating commission revised state
ment in place of ithat originally made
in response to Miles charges.
The revised statement is about
35 per cent shorter than that
which was ordered withdrawn because
of its violent and abusive character.
The commission went into secret session
to read the document and decide
whether in its present forE it has been
expurgated sufficiently to permit it to
be made part of the commission
records.
Accompanying Eagan's revised state
ment was letter from the commissary
general in which he disclaimed any in
tentIon in his former testimony of dis
respect to the commission. The writer
in excuse tor his vitu perative language
states that he has been placed before
the whole country as man who fed the
army on poisoned meat. He says it is
but natural that when proper oppor-
tunity was given him to meet and re-
fute the charges he should characterize
them in harsh language and in terms
that are deemed improper, no matter
what the provocation. He concludes:
'I therefore withdraw the language
and matter so Objectionable, and re.
submit to you my sworn statement, with
abiding faith that your commission hav-
ing all the facts before it will decide the
points at issue justly"
The commission, after brief secret
session, decided for the present to make
public only Eagan's letter and not the
statement accompanying it.

payment
Speaking of the present condition of
affairs in Havana, General Gomez said
it was bad.
"There appears to be much disagree
ment among the American soldiers," he
continued, "and no one seems to know
what his power is. Some one gives an
order, and the next man countermands
it. AS result the government of Ha-
yana is not as smooth as it might be.
General Brooke, however, is we'll
liked, and the Cubans are more than
willing to help him. General Ludlow's
orders preventing the Cubans from tax
ing any part in the evacuation parade,
caused a great deal of ill-feeling. This
is now done away with, and there need
be no fear of clash between the Cubans
and the Americans. ~
''The American soldiers are fine set
of men, and do not give any trouble.
We are done with war, and want peace,
but nevertheless we would never tolerate
the condition of affairs which is reported
to exist in Porto Rico"

Gale at Astoria:

ASTORIA, Jan. 15.-For the past 48
hours there has been a southeast gale
blowing, that has made the mouth of the
river impossible to attempt, except to
the steamer Columbia, that arrived in
this morning at low tide. The Colum-
bia and the State are 80 in the habit of
coming in by the submarine way that
little attention is paid to their troubles.
The barometer this morning shows little
signs of better weather tomorrow. All
the vessels in the harbor rode out the
gale last night without accident, and
this evening, while it is still squally,
the force of the storm has passed by.
The 5 O'Clock report from Fort Candy
was that the wind vas blowing there "A
miles from the southwest, and that there
was nothing In sight. This report in
dicates clearing weather, and the three
vessels that ere known to be outside will
be surely joined by a few more in the
next "a hours.
