Mayor Van Wyck called on Admiral
Dewey and paid his respects at 10
o'clock. He spent a quarter of an hour
chatting with the admiral and then took
leave Of him. Admiral Dewey warmly
expressed his thanks to the people of the
city through the mayor for the reception
which he received last week. He reiter-
ated the statement that 1t surpassed his
highest expectations.
After the mayor left several officers
from the Olympia called. among them
Lieutenant Commander Coivocoresses,
who was accompanied by Orderly Victor
Nygard Of the Olympia, with grips con-
tanning some of the admirals belongings

mittee, consisting Of st. Clair Nickel

Chauncey NJ. Depew, Richard Croker

to the admira's apartments. He receiv-
ed them warmly in his breezy, informal
way.

McKelway, "but the people of Washing
ton waHt. you. and we hear that they are
going to continue the noise that you have
been hearing SO puch Of here since your
arrival"
The admiral expressed his regrets at
leaving place which had shown its hos
pitality and frlendiness in such a way
as this city had, and, as he had done to
the mayor, he expressed his appreciation
of the reception accorded to him in the
name of the city. There was nothing set
or formal about the talk between the
committee and the admiral. for the latter
would not permit such thing. The trip
to the railway station then began.
A special train of five Pullman cars,
one of which was the Atlanta, which had
been fitted for Admiral Dewey and his
immediate escort, was in waiting on
track No. ~ at the extreme north of the
big Pennsylvania railroad trainshed.
AS the train pulled out many a ringing

NO EXTRA SESSION
Not Generally Believed That Con-
arcss will Be Convened Early.

Washington, Sept. 26.-Senatcrs
and representatives who come TO
Washin gtcm at this time are disjn-
clined to think that congress will be
called to meet in advance Of the reg
ular session The general belief is
that the president will not accede to
the demands of the currency reform
ers fer an extra session to get the
currency bill out Of the way.
'sAs matter Iof laact,'' said man in
public life; today, instead CT having
an extra session, the president would
be better pleased if congress did net
meet until January 1. The republi-
cans would like to see something effec-
tive accomplished in the Philippines
before congress meets. We all know
that there will be a great deal of talk
from ntIi-administ-ation s-urcss, use
less agitation which can only annoy
the executive and harass the men in
con gress who are trying to hold up his
hands
''If the pacifcation of the Philip
pines could be we'll under way, with
the end in sight, when congress meets
a lot of this useless talk could be
avoided. 1 d. not believe it would be
wise tci assemble congress before the
rainy SEASON ends in Luzon and be-
fore a single effective stroke has been
made. We would simply turn lC3se
the whole anti-eXpansion gang on us,
and encourage Aguinaldo from Wash
ington to further resistance
Il am in sympathy with those who
urge early adjournment of congress

ASSEMBLY OF FRIENDS.

Richmond. Ind, Sept 26.-The sew
enty-ninth annual session cf the In
diana yearly meeting of Friends con-
vened in the East Main Street church
this morning and the sessions will con-
tinue for a week. The business this
morning was confined to a session of
the ministers and elders and the real
work of the gathering will not COM
mence tomorrow. Opinion among those
present is divided on the question of
the advisability of considering the
new discipline at the present session.
While it is evident THAT the most Of
the visitors approve of the new disci-
pline as it stands, others are of the
opinion that it might as well go over
until next year, as the next Quinten-
nial conference of the church will not
be held for several years, so that there
is no need of immediate action.

GOLD COINS rRon CUBA
Many OF THIN Are Rare and Dafe
Back for Centuries.

Washington. Sept, 26.-The post
the safe arrival in New York city of
Mr.. F. w. Nee,y of the subtreasury
with 81, 400, 900 worth of specie to set
t-s the international money orders that
had been issued from Cuba.
The money arrived Icn the transport
Buford. 1t was shipped from Havana
by Director General Rathbone, N
charge of the postal service, and is, for
the most part, in gold coins. 1t was
estimated that there was at least a
ton and half of old copper pennies
Numismatists from all over the
country are interested in portion CT
this treasure There is at least $780,
600 in gold coins dating back en-
turies. Some of the pennies show a
remarkable state CT preservation fer
the hundreds of years they have been
IN circulation. Already the fact has
leaked out that this important treas
use is in the United States. and in
quirfes have been made at the depart
ment as to the proper procedure to get
a lcok at the old relics.
1t is understood that many of the
gold coins show considerable abrasion
and many have been plugged. Direc-
tor Neely stated to the postoffice de-
pIartment that the government would
lose nothing from this mutilati1n. be-
cause in accepting the money for the
orders he had computed their value in
weight, rather than their face value.
On the contrary many CT the coins
were of such rare dates that it is ex-
pected that the government would
have a considerable surplus on hand.
Much of the gold gives indication of
having been buried, and it is presumed
that when was was declared it was
dug up from queer hiding places and
carried to the postoffices and ex-
changed fer money orders. 1t is to
settle these money orders that brings
