GOLD CERTIFICATES.
The Call for Them Will Be Less
Than First Expected.

WASHINGTON, Aug. 9.-The reports
so far received from Sub-Trel(ury
cities indicates that the call for gold
certificates in exchange for gold coin
will be considerably less than the treas
ury officials expected. San Francisco,
Cincinnati, st. Louis and New Or
leans, however have not yet b. en- heard
from and consequently there is no
proper basis upon which to closely es-
innate the result of the Secretary's re-
cent order. But the demand in these
cities is expected to be even smaller
than in the Eastern cities, by reason of
the large surplus in the money centers
of the West.
Up to last night the New York banks
had asked for the exchange of 81, 800,
600; Philadelphia, $4,000; Baltimore,
S616,OO0: Washington, $150.00O in the
departmental series and $780, 900 in "to
order" certificates.
1t is a matter of some surprise in the
Treasury that large percentage of the
New York calls have been for 500 and
certificates of other small denomina-
tionS.
The record-union. [volume] (Sacramento, Calif.) 1891-1903, 1899-08-10

the real question presented there is
whether fraud, trickery, thuggism and
crime shall be permitted to triumph.
Inasmuch as these elements IN be con-
trolled by corruption, the question
broadens out and becomes one of ma
tional Importance, for If these elements
are to triumph, it means that they will
have a. comparatively easy road to
travel in other sections of the United
States, and it means that political con-
ventions will not be run by the people
and carrying out the will of the people,
but will be run by people who will be-
tray the people and will be controlled
by those who plumber the country.
Viewed from that standpoint, it is
apparent that the very exercise of
Democratic institutions is involved, and
consequently it is the duty of every
man who loves his country to do what
he can to crush out these conditions.
But whether it would be advisable for
me to go to Kentucky and make
speeches or not will depend on circum-
stances 1t will depend largely upon
what the people of Kentucky do them
selves. If they show a disposition to
rescue their State from the control of
the rotten politics, and they conclude
that I can help them, I will gladly do
what I can and / think a similar spirit
will be found all over the country.
Looking at the situation from this
distance, it seems to me as if a new
Democratic ticket for State officers
would be the salvation of Senator
Blackburn, for it would result in bring
ing out full Democratic vote, where
as, if there is no new ticket put up and
the Disguised Democrats should remain
away from the polls, as they are liable
to do, he would be in great danger"

PARKER WON.
Defeated Billy Otis in the Fight at
Denver.

DENVER, Aug. 9.-"Kid" Parker of
Denver defeated Billy Otis of San
Francisco in the fifth round of what
before the Olympic Athletic Club to-
night, thereby winning the lightweight
championship of the West.
The fight was fast and furious from
the start, and after the second round
was continuous series of mix-ups,
varied by Otis going to the floor, TAX
ing the full limit each time. Parker's
superiority in mitigating was clearly
apparent, he landing on Otis with up
percuts in every mix-up.
Otis made his best showing in the
first round, and for a moment looked
like winner, sending Parker to the
floor twice, slightly dazing him once.
In the second round honors were
about even, but afterward Parker had
things all his own way. He knocked
Otis down twice in the third, four
times in the fourth, the bell saving
Otis, and again four times in the fifth,
when Gus Rubin, who acted as Otis
chief second, reluctantly threw up the
sponge. it being apparent that his
man was too weak to continue.
Otis claims that his left hand was
broken in the second round, to which
he attributes his inability to admins
ter punishment.
The result of the fight places Parker
in line for the lightweight champion
ship of the world, and he will at once
challenge Frank Erne, the present
champion.
