Office in Mr.. Gladstone's government of 1886 is
one no Premier could regard with equaninity.
Looking back now, considering what has fol-
lowed and what must inevitably come. it may
appear that the holder and shorter cut would
have been the better. Having to decide without
foreknowiedge, Mr.. Balfour. allured by the de-
vice OF the inquiry and the hope that during
its progress something might turn UP, drifted
into an arrangement which made it possible
after brief hesitation witnessed by the House at
the memorable sitting of June g. for the Colonial
Secretary to continue to sit at the council board
with the Duke of Devonshire and the Chancellor
Of the EXchequer.
THESE painfully strained relations make doubly
welcome the coming of the recess But the in
terva is sharply DEEMED and the crisis only post
poned. That Mr.. Chamberlain means business is
evidenced by the operation Of the costly ma
chinery Of the Birmingham agency which
boasts that 1t is flooding the constituencies with
fifty million leaflets, showing how good a thing

have his food taxed in order to conciIiate the
colonies. AS home critics ard Continental min
listers alike have reason to know. he is not in
clined to mince matters when once he goes forth
on the track. When he speaks at New
castle-on-Tyne he must either climb down or
stride far forward. The latter movement is
much more in accordance with his constitutional
habit, and it is not likely to be discarded be-
cause in the course Of his progress he may knock
up against his sometime colleague but ancient
adversary. the Rip Van Wrinkle of his Radical
years Even If the expected happens, and, open
ing the campaign he has planned, commencing
the big fight TO which he has summoned the ma
ton. Mr.. Chamberlain, drawing the sword of
Protection, throws away the scabbard, it does
not necessarily follow that Free Traders in the
Cabinet should resign their Ministerial offices.
Not in October any more than in June. July

HOTELS IN DARKNESS.
Engineer Plays 7cith Szoitches-
attacks Manager zCith Wrench.

CONSERVATION was caused last evening in the
dining Of the Hotels Iroquois and Seymour,
in Forty-ffth-st, between Fifth and Sixth aves-,
by the sudden extinction Of the electric lights.
The gradual darkenng Of the hotels continued until
Milton Powell the manager Of the Iroquois dis
covered the engineer Of the establishments in the
joint power plant in the basement of the Seymour,
calmly pulling down the current switches the
big switchboard.
According to Mr.. Powell. the trouble caused
by the engineer. owen Curran, of No 401 Park-ave.
Mr. Powell said that joy over the Reliances show
ing some kindred cause led to Curran's being IN
a hilarious mood when he reported for duty last
evening. When Mr. Powell reached the engine
room after the lights became dim he discovered
Curran deliberately shutting off the lights. When
the manager demonstrated according to, his story,
Curran left the switchboard long enough to seize
a large sized monkey wrench and rap Mr.. Powell
severely over the knuckles. Then. with threats OF
more violent of the wrench. he drove Mr..
Powell and several assistants who had attempted
to reinforce the manager up the stairs from the
engine room Having established his occupancy Of
the engine room, Curran returned TO his work at
uIsconnecting the switches.
Mr.. Powell, nursing his knuckles. ran into Forty
second-st. and called in Policemen Malcolm, Ray
and Thompson. The policemen descended to the
engine room, and after a sharp encounter took
Currans monkey wrench from him and made him
a prisoner

RELIEF FOR THE MONEY MARKET.
Treasury Has Fund of S4O,ooO,OOO to Draw
On for Crop Moving.
[FRoM THE TRIBUNE BUREAU.I


Washington. Aug 2I-Secretary Shaw has a
fund of 100000 that he draw on for the
relief of the money market if there should be a
severe stringency during the crop moving period
this fall. In former years when the Secretary of
the Treasury has wanted to increase the de-
posts of public moneys in the banks. in order to
relieve the money market, it has been a slow
process. Receipts from customs cannot legally
lie deposited in the banks. and it has been the
practice to put in the internal revenue receipts
from day to day collected and without first
putting them in the Treasury.
The Treasury Department some months ago
adopted the plan of keeping the internal reve-
nue. receipts separate from the customs receipts
after they had been paid into the Treasury, until
fund of S40O00130 had been created, which
can be drawn upon 10 any amount that may be
required il the event of monetary stringency
OF sucn character as to require the interven-
ton of the department There has been a general
belief that after internal revenue receipts had
once been deposited in the Treasury. they could
not be deposited in the banks, but the law Of
ficers of the Treasury Department take the view
that if the internal revenue receipts have been
kept entirely separate and distinct from the
toms receipts. they can be so deposited. whether
they have been in the Treasury or not.
