TO RELIEVE MONEY MARKET.
Secretary Shaw Issues Statement With Re
gard to His Plan
(By the Associated Press.)

Washington, Aug. 2S.-In view of ru-
mors as TO Secretary Shaws plans for
relieving the money market in the event
of a possible stringency, the secretary,
who is in New York, today authorized
Assistant Secretary Allies to make the
following statement:
1.-The secretary recently invited some
of the larger national banks in the prin-
cipal cities to order additional amounts
Of circulating notes TO be printed. Ma
tional banks are entitled to issue circu-
lation to the full amount of their capital.
The aggregate capital of national banks
is 500, 100000, but the banks have out
standing only 1858, 600 900 of circulation.
The secretary has hoped to introduce an
element of elasticity into the present sys-
TEN. His suggestions to the various
banks ia the larger cities that they make
preparation for additional circulation
have met with very favorable response.
1t is not his intention that they should
issue this additional circulation at all
events but only in case of actual neceS-
sity and emergency He does not pro-
pose to initiate the currency in any sense
but to be prepared to meet the actual
currency demand should one arise. Win
this in view those banks which have MADE
arrangements to deposit United states
bonds as security for such addltional CIT
! culation have sent in their orders ana the
secretary has had all branches OF the
! treasury service busily engaged In expe-
diting the preparation of the notes pend
ing a possible emergency.

Rain Spells the Shoot.

Savannah, Ga, Aug. 2S.-The princi-
pal event in the Inter State Shoot at
Avondale range today was the company
team match open to the South distances
200. 300 and 500 yards and slIirmish at
silhouette figures; seven shots on each
range; ten halts on skirmish and one
shot at each halt. The prize is a silver
loving cup and $50 cash. Fifteen teams
from six States entered. Owing to rain
the match was not finished. Two teams
of the Savannah cadets We're leading
when firing ceased. No local company
can win first prize, however, as it has
been agreed that the visiting company
making the highest score shall take the
prize.
In the cavalry carbine match at 200,
800 and 500 yards, the Liberty Ihdepend-
ent Troop led by two points when rain
stopped the firing.
All scores today were low, owing to
the poor light. The matches of today
will be concluded tomorrow morning.
Four hundred men in uniform were at
the butts during the day. The regimen
tai matches begin tomorrow.

Pacific
General Miles discussed his trip briefly
today He had just arrived from his
Eastern inspecting tour and said that
there were SO many things to do in ar
ranging his office affairs that he had
not as yet outlined in detail his trip
after he should reach Manila.
Il regard the trip as merely a visit to
the army there" he said. at may be
called an inspection tour, and l shall
make it point to visit probably every
army camp in the islands, although as |

determined upon
The General expressed regret that he
should not be here during the Grand
Army encampment.
General Miles says that his visit to the
Philippines will consume from thirty to
sixty days. Before going he will make

End of Strike Yet Afar OFT.
(By the Associated Presso

Wilkesbarre, Pa. Aug. 2S.-Ihc OIL
Gals at strike headquarters nave set
tied down to the belief that there is no
immediate prospect of an early settle-
ment of the strike. While president
Mitchell would not say anything hlmsell,
some of his subordinates have been OF
the opinion that the return Of j. Pierpont
Morgan to this country would BRING ABOUT
a change in the situation favorable TO
the miners. The developments OF the
last few days, however have entirely
dispelled this view and now all that is
heard is: at is fight to the hnlsh.
At the offices of the local coal COM
panies the information is given out that
the output of coal in the Wyoming region
is increasing daily. This is stoutly de-
MED at strike headquarters and the min
utes of a meeting of the employees oil
Avondale mine held yesterday on lille at
President Mitchells headquarters, show
that none of the hands formerly employ
ed at the colliery has returned to work.

Press Bitter Against Palma.
(By the Associated Press.)

Havana, Aug. 2S.-President Palma finds
himself today without the support of a
single newspaper controlled by CubaDs.
The editorials published in the Cuban
press are, considered collectively, re-
markable for their bitterness and out
spoken opposition of the chief executive.
The only paper which supports the Presi-
dent is the Diario de la Marina, formerly
the organ of the Spanish government, and
at present representing the Spanish col
Guy in Cuba.
One of the principal causes of the OPP
position to President Palma seems to
arise from the fact that he granted the
Castaneda concession for the establish
ment of an electric light plant at Ha-
vana. This concession has been a sub
ject of bitter discussion in the House OF
Representatives and some members OF
the House are demanding Senior Palma S
impeachment unless the concession is
rescinded. The impeachment matter had
been upon the table for the past week
Both houses of Congress have become
badly disorganized over this question and
the result has been a strong anti-Palma
feeling.

Poisoning Case at Kinston.
(Kinston Free Press.)


A more or less sensational poisoning
case was before Justice w. F. Dibble for
investigation yesterday afternoon, in
which Lot Lawson, colored was charged
with being an accomplice of Eddie
Davis who had been bound over
to court in a previous trial. The evil
dence as to Davis was that he had put
carbolic acid in the coffee to be used by
the family of Mr.. S. c. Cauley one morn.
ing about the middle of July, and which
was discovered by Mrs Cauley while
pouring out the coffee for the family, but
not until her little girl had taken a
mouthful. Fortunately the child detect
ed the unnatural taste and spit it out.
Davis admits putting the poison into
the coffee, but claims that Dawson was
the instigator. The only possible mo-
tives was that Davis, who had been
with Mr.. Cauley long time, had re-
Gently been running about neglecting his
work, and Mr.. Cauley had checked him
up about it. Davis, being a half witted
fellow, resorted to this means to get
even. Davis claim that he had been
prompted to the deed by Lawson was
sustained by the court, and Lawson was
placed in Jail in default of bond to await
the action of the Superior court.

Headquarters at Thurmond.
(By the Associated Press.)


Charleston, West Virginia, Aug. 2S.-
The troops ordered to the New River
strike district today by Governor White
will establish headquarters at Thur
mond. The situation is very acute.
Sheriff Daniel. who is here today from
Fayette county, says he is powerless to
repress disorder and property and life
are in constant danger. Nearly every
body refuses to act as deputy sheriffs
to assist in the eviction of striking min
ers and hence the sheriff made a re-
quest for troops. Men concealed along
the mountain sides fire at the guards
and at the miners going to work and
then disappear Governor White says
he sends troops to protect life and prop
erty, but not to settle the strike. That,
he says belongs to the miners and OPP
orators. Great danger of serious out
break is imminent in the New River
fields.

AN APPEAL TO THE GOVERNOR
West virginia's Chief Executive Responds
by Ordering Out Regiment.
INV the Associated Press.l


Charleston, w. Va, Aug. Ex-Governor
White has ordered the Second regiment
of the West Virginia National Guard to
the New River district, not, as he says,
to settle the strike, but to protect life
md property. Colonel Morrison, at Par
kersburg, was given orders today to call
out his regiment and proceed by special
train to Thurmond, which will be head
quarters. The cause for this action by
the Governor is the appeal of Sheriff
Daniel, of Fayelte county, for assistance
on the ground that many citizens refuse
to respond TO his summons to act as
deputies to enable him to execute the
orders of the court and his declaration
that he is powerless to protect life and
property. He communicated with the
Governor yesterday when his deputies
were fired on in the vicinity of Red Ash,
where they were evicting miners who
are strikers and who are in arrears for
rent.
