B.— romance was consummated yesterday by a wedding in the court of criminal correction. The par ties were Bryan Coyan, 19 years of age, and Mrs. Ella Kimmerly, a widow of 17. Young Coyan was born in St. Louis of re spectable parents, but fell into evil ways, and at an early age made a record in police circles. He had a sweetheart, but some thing over two years ago they quarreled, and the girl, through pique, married another. Young Coyan has been arrested more times than he can remember. About six months ago he was taken in for associating with thieves and was fined $50. A stay was granted during good behavior. Meantime the girl, who had married when 15 years old, became a widow, and Coyan resumed his old friendly relations. The result be came evident a few weeks ago in the young widow's condition, and about the same time the lad got into another snarl with the police, which landed him in jail. After a few weeks in jail he got a lawyer to in tercede for him. He said that if the police judge would combine the old $50 judgment with the penalty for his latest offense and give him a stay of execution, HE WOULD MARRY THE GIRL and . leave the city forever. This was agreed to and the girl was happy until the discovery was made that Coyan was under age and his mother's consent would have to be obtained before he could get a marriage license. His mother had married a second time and lived near Peroly, Mo. The girl telegraphed but got no answer, and on Wednesday last took a train for Peroly. On reaching there she learned that Coyan's mother lived nine miles distant, and there was no conveyance. It was 8 o'clock at night, dark and raining, but the girl went afoot that night and reached the home of her lover's mother at about midnight. Friday the old lady accompanied the girl to this city, and yesterday the wedding took place. The newly married pair departed immediately for the home of his mother. He says if he ever comes back to St. Louis it will be as an honorable man. GREATLY DECEIVED. A Youn^ Lady of Montreal Marries an Adventurer Who Had Another Wife. Special to the Globe. X Montreal. Aug. 8. — About a year ago a young man calling himself Henry Chet wynd arrived in Montreal from England. He was about 30 years of age, handsome and well built. He claimed to be connected with one of the first English families. He had with him six large trunks, which he said contained his wardrobe. He always had plenty of money and spent it freely. He soon ingratiated himself into the confi dence of the people and was invited to all the balls and parties, and was quite a lion in society. He seemed to have an unlim ited supply of clothes of the most fashion able cut. He was here" but three months when a young lady, daughter of a promi- n ent banker in this city and well known • In society, fell in love with him. After a short courtship he proposed to her and was accepted. Their marriage was CELEBRATED WITH GREAT POMP and display. He rented a house on Sher brook street, the most fashionable street in Montreal, and fitted it up with great splendor. Balls and parties were held there in profusion. About a month ago, however, another person appeared on the scene. She was a very pretty woman, and claimed the Britisher as her husband. Then the fellow disappeared suddenly, and bo. did the woman. This created a great sensation among the society people here, and much sympathy was expressed for the young lady who had married Chetwynd. It was a certainty that the fellow left a considerable number of unpaid accounts be hind him. chetwynd's real name is Barton, and he was the treasurer of an English theatrical company. He had skip ped to Montreal with the funds of the com pany, and the woman who had followed him from England was an actress of the company whom he had married and de- Bel ted. It is supposed that the two went to the states together. The young lady whom he had married in Montreal has en . tered a convent. This is another illustra tion of how easy it is for an adventurer to come to Montreal and force his way into the highest society and then decamp, after, perhaps, marrying and running up a large assortment of bills. Another notable ex ample was the "Count De Nuviele," who is now serving a term in St. Vincent Dv Pont penitentiary. A DESPERATE LOVER. He Shoots His Sweetheart and Then Commit!) Suicide. Special to the Globe. Tyrone, Pa., Aug. B.— The little town of Wallaceton, on the line of the Tyrone & Cleariield railroad, in Clearlied county, was the scene of a thrilling double tragedy. For some time back a young man named Mc- Clam, from Granville, N. V., employed on the Bear Creek & Southwestern road, had been paying attention to Miss Emma Davis, a daughter of George Davis, who lives near the station, and the love had apparently been reciprocated by the young lady, but had been strongly objected to by her pa rents. McClain was not working yesterday and called at the Davis residence about noon to have A FINAL UNDERSTANDING with the girl. He knocked at the door and it was opened by Ella herself, who es rorted him to the room. They were to gether but a short time, when McClain was heard to demand of the girl whether she would marry him, and, on receiving the reply that she could not without I her parent's consent, he quickly drew a re volver and fired. The ball lodged in- her shoulder, and as she ran screaming toward the door the desperate lover caught her arm and held her while he fired a second shot which entered her back with fatal ef fect, and she dropped dead at his feet. Raising his smoking weapon and placing it to his ear, he fired again, the ball crush ing into his own brain, from the effects of which he died an hour later. Quarrel Over a. Girl. Special to the Globe. : .- Janesville, Wis., Aug. 8. — This morning at 1 o'clock, at the breaking up of a twenty-nine-cent dance at the Rifles armory, this city, Harry Bostivich and Andrew Campbell, not yet out of their teens, quarrelled about going home with a eirl. Bostivich shot Campbell twice, one shot taking effect in the thigh and making a slight ilesh wound, the other breaking his left arm. Bostivich, who is a son of a prominent business man, dis appeared immediately after the shooting and has not been arrested. At Cbautauqua. Chatttatjqua, N.Y.,Aug. B.— Rev. Dr. 0. P. Gifford, a Baptist pastor of Boston, preached here this morning on "Christ and Daily ST. PAUL Globe. the Woman of Samaria," urging that it was the duty of the people of the several Christian denominations to recognize the equality and rights of all, to the end of bringing unity out of the diversity of opinion prevailing. lie alluded to the shutting out of Unitarians from the ereat Sunday school parade at Brooklyn as a modern instance in keeping with the action of the Jews when they refused to have any dealings with the Samaritans. About 3,000 persons were gathered iv the several departments of the Chautauqua Assembly Sabbath school this afternoon. At 4 o'clock President Carlisle of Wofford col lege, S. C. delivered an address on "Christian Ethics." In the evening the Rev. Dr. Hobbs of Louisville, Ky., preached in the amphitheater. lloliliKlauii .Murdered. Special to the Globe. Oskaloosa, la., Aug. 7.— lsaac Ward of Eockford, 111., here temporarily visiting relatives, was knocked down with a club, last night, on the street, and robbed of about $50. He died early this morning. The pockets of his clothes were found turned out, and everything of value taken. RIVER IMPROVEMENTS. Extracts From Ma]. McKenzie's Re port on the Upper Mississippi. The Xeeds and Exigencies of tlie Sit uation Plainly Set Forth. Special to the Globe. Washington, Aug. S. — In the course of his report on the river improvemenrs under his charge, Maj. McKenzie, stationed at Kock lslaud, says of the snag boat service, for which there was no money directly available daring the past year: "It is pro posed in the future to operate, in counec tion with the snag boat so long as circumstances require and warrant and funds permit a dredge boat to assist in moving wieeks. towheads and other ob structious or similar nature and for cutting temporary channels in connection with works, improvements and at other points where no permanent improvements have yet been carried on." Of the river work in general he says: "It appears to be gen erally admitted that the preservation of the navigation of the Upper Mississippi is a necessity in the enterest of cheap freight rates and for the benefit of the general public, and iv considering the importance of such works and the amount of good re sulting therefrom it seems proper to con sider all freight affected bo river competi tion, rather than the amount of freight act ually carried on the river. The river im provements make cheap transportation practicable, and in securing and MAINTAINING REASOXAULE KATES the object of the improvement is gained ir respective of the actual method of trans portation. The freight received and shipped at and from St. Louis by upper Mississippi river boats shows a falling off for five years. In tons it was as follows: 1881, '205,110; ISS2, 200,865; 1883, 186,350; 1884, 173,000; 18S5, 165,740. The number of steamboats passing bridges at the points named in 18&6 were: La Crosse, 4,755; Dubuque, 3,501; Rock Island, 2,361; Bur lington, 1,562; Keokuk, 1,711; Quincy, 1,509. In general these figures are less than for the tv/o previous years." In re porting on work between the Dcs Moines rapids and St. Paul, Maj . McKenzie says: "There is now no question that the river between St. Paul and Dcs Moines can be put in such a condition as to make navigation easy and permanent. To accomplish this result requires continued work under liberal appropriations, for some time to come. The small amount of work which could be carried on in 1885, and the impracticability of commencing any work in ISSO, is unfortunate for the interest of navigation, and undoubtedly MUCH TROUBLE AVILL, BE EXPERIENCED at unimportant points during the coming probably very low stage of water. These troubles, unless prevented by some means not now apparent, will be all the more felt this year, for the reason that for several years, owing to the work cairied on by tiie government, navigation has been made comparatively easy. Steamboats have be come accustomed to running through to St. Paul during the entire season with but little difficulty, and the reliability of nav igation has reduced expenses, made season contracts practicable and improved busi ness. There is now available, under this head of the appropriation, but SS, SGI), as au amount of the appropri ation that can be expended for the fiscal year ended June 30, 18S6. I submitted an estimate of 31,500,000. It will be remem bered that THIS IS AN ESTIMATE for carrying on work over about 500 miles of river. The existing project for this work is one of great methods and plans rather than details. No different estimate of cost of completion can well be given. In preparing projects for special localities an estimate of §20,000 per mile is usually taken. There has been spent since the commencement 81,122,628, of which 872,946 was spent last year. This report is accompanied by a detailed history of the Hock Island improvement by Assist ant Engineer C. W. Dutchma, tilling, 128 pages of legal cap manuscript of the Dcs Moines Kapids caual. Maj. McKenzie says: "The work remaining to be done consisted of a small amount of blasting and dredging iv the chanael above Nashville, raising lock walls four feet at the lower and middle locks, refilling and completing fac ing of canal embankments, building two sluices for removing sediment, building office at lower lock, and completing lock grounds. THE ESTIMATED COST of the above work is 891,745. To this must be added SIO. OOO for a pier connect ing the lower wing wall of the caual with the Keokuk bridge. Is is very desirable that the work be completed, as that will effect a reduction iv the expenses of oper ating the Dcs Moines Kapids canal." The total expense on this work from June, ISBS, to June 30, 1886, amounts to $4,591. --700. The total cost of op erating the caual has been 8360,497. The cost of completing the modified project will be 8101,745. The Dcs Moines Kapids canal was open for nav igation during the past year 238 days, during which time there passed through it 754 steamers and 21S barges, carrying 22.221 passengers, 56,001 tons merchandise, 465.651 bushels of grain, 22.769,823 feet of timber, 3.195,360 feet of logs. 8,253,000 shingles and 4,302.800 lath. A favorable stage of water in the spring of ISS6 per mitted many boats and most of the rafts to go over the rapids outside the canal. Ar rangements for lighting the middle lock with electricity will be made during the coining year. The Fishing Flat. Gloucester, Mass., Aug. B.— Several large fares of lisli arrived there to-day from the srrand banks. The schooner H. B. Griffin brings 375,000 pounds of codfish, the largest fare received here this season. The schooner Orient, from the bay, brings 600 barrels of mackerel, the largest makerel fare of the season. During the past twenty-four hours a total of 1,700,000 pounds of codfish and 1,450 barrels of mackerel from the bay and 150,000 pounds of halibut have arrived. Ditluth marine. Special to the Globe.

ST. PAUL, MONDAY MORNING. AUGUST 9, 188$ BATTLING WITH BATS. St. Paul's Ball Players Think That the Better the Day the Better the Deed, And Eetrieve Their Fallen fortunes By Beating Duluth By a Score of 4 to 1. Milwaukee Secures Eight Runs to Four Credited to the Osh kosli Team. Yesterday's American Association Games--Yachting and .La crosse Notes. St. Paul 4, Dulutn 1. Special to the Globe. Duluth, Minn., Aug. 8. — The best game of the season was played to-day. About 300 St. Paul people were on tiie ground armed with tin horns and cowbells and headed by the First Regiment baud. Enthusiastic demonstrations began in the first inuintr and did not cease until the end of the ninth. The fielding was remarkably sharp on both sides, five stops, catches and throws being numerous. Duluth got no less than twelve men to first base, but only one of them was able to cross the plate. Pretty double plays were made by McMillan aud Reid, Keid and Van ] Zandt and Fitzsimmous, Sage and Tray. ! The batting of both teams was light, that of Duluth especially so. The latter placed the ball in a cool place once in the first inning, once in the third and twice in the sixth. St. Paul made three of its six hits in the ninth inning. Iv the fifth inning it looked as though it would certainly rain in a few minutes, and St. Paul's three batsmen, to hurry matters, tapped the ball to the ground in front of the pitcher and then quickly retired Duluth in one, two, three order. It, however, failed to rain, aud the game was played to the end of the ninth inning. St. Paul scored a run iv the first inning on Wilmot's two bagger and errors at left and short. Three more tallies were added in the ninth on hits by Jevne, Cleveland and Adams and a life given McCarthy by a fum ble at second. Duluth, scored its solitary run in the sixth. McMillan was given a base on balls, stole second, took third on a passed ball and scored on Sage's failure to hold Sullivan's throw iv of a grounder by Cody to short field. The ball was really knocked out of Sage's hands by the runner at the plate, but Umpire McGin ley allowed the run to count. Legg aud Van Zant then made mat ters exceedingly interesting by filling the bases full on hits to left and center iepect ively. Kouike then pounded the sphere savagely along the ground to short, but Sullivan got it and fielded Couy out at the plate. Still there were three men on bases and only one out. Masrau took up the willow, aud the Du luth people yelled with delight, as they remembered that he usually knocked the ball over the fence when a home run was wanted. He, however, struck out aud Mills ended the most ex citintr inning of the game with a pop up to Fitzsimmous. For the next three innings the home team was easily bowled down. The playing of the St. Paul boys was excellent throughout, Sage's catching was greatly admired. Cleveland took sev eral diffhuit flies, and McCarthy's work at second was a revelation to the Duluth au dience. After the game all those hailing from St. Paul formed in twos behind the band, and with music of various kinds, inarched through the principal streets of the city. The score is as follows: Duluth. ,X jbp |A|E ;| St. Paul.

About 300 St. Paul citizens went to Du luth yesterday morning to witness the game of base ball between the St. Paul and Ze nith City teams. The trains pulled out at 8:15 o'clock. The First Regiment band ac companied the excursionists and contrib uted largely to the pleasures of the trip. There were a few tin horns along and oue or two carried brooms. Such members of the party as cared to make bets were given an oDportunity by the Duluth men, the excursionists backing their own team, as a rule. The party took in the came and looked over the city to a greater or less extent. The train bearing the ex cursionists arrived in St. Paul at about 1:30 o'clock this morning, and, headed by the band, which played a psean of victory, marched up Third street, cheering occasion ally for the team which had done them the honor to defeat the opposing nine on the occasion of their visit. Milwaukee S, Oslikosh 4. ' Special to the Globe. Milwaukee, Wis., Aug. B.— Oshkosh was defeated to-day by Milwaukee in a well played game. The Oshkosh players were totally unable to hit Daily up to "the eighth inning, when he let up on his speed and they made three singles. Milwaukee's nine, on the other hand, took kindly to Hallstrotn's pitching, knocking out eleven hits including a couple of two-baggers and a home run. The battery work of Daily and Colgan and the batting of Colgan and McCullom were the features of the game. McCullom also distinguished himself by a fine running catch. Roche did the best work for Oshkosh, making several brilliant stops of hard hit balls. The score: Milwaukee.

Black River Falls 11, Auffutta O. Special to the Globe. Black Fiiver Falls. Wis., Aug. 8. — Yesterday was a gala day for the home ball tossers. The contest was between the the Augusta club, reinforced with a league battery from Eau Claire, and the home club. The Augusta pitcher, Lawrence, has the reputation of having played with the De troit league team the fore part of the sea son, and there are but few catchers who can hold his left-hand pitching, but with all his professional skill, the home club batted him badly. Snyder. the Eau Claire league catcher, completed the battery for the vis itors. The home club worked hard and succeeded in completely shutting out the visitors by the following score: Augusta 0 0000000 o—o Bl'kKiv'r Falls. 4 0 0 3 0 3 0 1 *— v St. Louis 7* Athletic 3.

The game was witnessed by 5,000 people. Browning, who seems to have recovered some of his old form, made a single, a two-base, a three-base hit and a home-run drive, much to the delight of his old ad mirers.

St. Louis Will Stick. St. Louis, Aug. B.— The statement that the St. Louis league base ball team is about to disband and the Pittsburg take its place seems to be unfounded. Mr. Lucas posi tively asserts that his club will play all of their scheduled games this season. The Yachtsmen. Highland Light. Mass., Aug. 8. — The yacht Galatea put into Provincetown last night and sailed again this afternoon. The wind is east and freshening and the weather thick and rainy, with indications ot an easterly storm. Newport, R. 1., Aug. 8. — The harbor presented a beautiful sight to-day. The yachts were in gala dress, with sails wide spread. Lines of streamers from peak to peak of the schooners and from peak to hull in double lines were on every yacht. Thousands of excursionists and many townspeople enjoyed the uretty sight fiom the decks of excursion steamers, the wharves, cat boats and row boats. At 3 o'clock the decorations were lowered and the flags set at half-mast out of respect to to the former secretary, Charles A. Minton, who died in New York this morning. Sev eral yachts left the harbor to-day, includ ing the Grayling, Wanderer and Sachem. The day was spent idly on board the yachts in talking over the race and the run of to-morrow. The yachts will leave for New Bedford at 10 o'cloc 1 : Wants to IVleet Patsy IWellen. Young Mitchell arrived in Minneapolis yesterday. He is a noted pugilist of San Francisco, and is desirous of meeting any man of his class in Minneapolis, and men tions Patsy Meilen particularly. He weighs about 150 pounds, but will train down to 140 pounds. Mitchell has met Jack Deinp sey, Tom Cleary and all the Pacific coast sluggers of note, and has made an enviable record. He is a line looking, gentlemanly appearing young man, whom no one would take for a lighter. He went to Lake Cal houn yesterday and will go into training at once to prepare for the rirst one that comes along. Inasmuch as Meilen offered to meet Tom Cleary, there is little doubt but that he will box Mitchell six or eight rounds. Athletic Sports at Calhoun. On Thursday evening next an athletic contest, consisting of three events, will take place at Calhoun park, Lake Calhoun, between Louie W T est, a new man, who is under the management of Moulton & Wal lace, and Charles R. Koenig, champion all around athlete of the Northwest. The contests these men will encage in are a hundred-yard foot race, running high jump and hitch-and-kick. Besides these events, other sports will be added to the program. West, on the same evening, will probably contest a one-mile foot race with H. W. Stone, the oarsman, which will be the first of a series of three races wfcich are about arranged between these men. Lacrosse. New York, Aug. B.— The international lacrosse match between the Toronto and New York clubs will commence at 5 o'clock to-morrow afternoon at St. George, Staten Island. The Irish lacrosse team arrived here to-day on the Etruria. The men are in excellent condition for their games of Tuesday and Wednesday on Staten Island. SmallTalk. The Minneapolis club has yet 31 league games to play, of which 13 will be played at home and 18 divided among the other cities as follows: Duluth 4, at home, none. Eau Claire 4, at home 3. Milwaukee 4, at home 4. Osnkosh 4, at home 4. There is a prospect of the tf^m climbing:, at least as high as fourth place, if not to the third. A nine from the Western Union, St. Paul, yesterday visited Fort Snelling and played a game of ball with the second nine of the lat ter place, resulting in a score of 12 to 17 in favor of the St. Paulites. Patsey Mellin will undertake to stop Ed. R. Mohler in four rounds, at the Theater Comique, Friday eveniug. The contest will be an interesting 1 one as the men are evenly matched and mean business. Had the Duluth team won yesterday one of its admirers would have paid each member of it $25. THE APACHJES. Details of Their Latest Flank move ment and Depredations. Special to the Globe. Tombstone, Ariz., Angß. — Three differ ent reports have been received relative to the Indian raid near Ures last week. One was that they killed eleven team sters, all Americans, and forty mules. Another report said seven Mexicans and two Americans were killed. The last and probably more reliable report is that they attacked a train of four wagons aud killed the Mexican teamsters, thence raided near Miners-Prietas and killed two Mexican woodchoppers, then made anotner detour and raided round back towards the Milatos mountains, stealing horses as they went and came from the direction of Puerto Caneja, their old trail. The country is terrorized, ranches for al most a hundred miles around will be aban doned. It is thought to be a portion of Geronimo's band, sent out by him to divert the attention of Capt. Lawton, who has been pressing the wily chief to his ut most. Geronimo Is engineering for time. What his next maneuver will be none can tell, but it is highly probable that Lawton's pursuit has been so pertinacious that he has concluded that the Sierra Madres are untenable. The moon is out and we may expect to hear from him on some flank movement up here or on some Mexican base of operations very soon. BUYING THE BONDS.

In reply to an inquiry he said that there had been no recent cab inet consideration of the question of bond calls, nor no decision by the president on the subject. His (Fairchild's) statements be fore the senate finance committee, that bonds would be called as rapidly as pru dent administration permitted, conveyed all that had been determined upon the sub ject. The amount of the next call and of the calls to be issued during the summer had not been agreed upon and would be de cided by the financial statements each month. The belief is quite prevalent that the calls will be more liberal in the near future. THE PENSION OFFICE. An Unfounded Kuinor Tbat Gen. SSSacU Is to be Succeeded by Gov. Click. Special to the Globe. Washington, Aug. B.— There is a story in circulation here that Gen. Black is to be appointed minister to Austria and to be succeeded by Gov. Glick of Kansas. Cer tain gentlemen declare that correspondence between Secretary Lamar and Gov. Glick on this subject has been seen here. The statements made are very circumstantial and might be accepted if they were not so inherently iniprooable. In spite of all formal and official declarations to the con trary, the relations between the secretary aud the commissioner of pensions are NOT ENTIRELY SATISFACTORY. The secretary has not been so well satisfied with the course of the commissioner as he expected to be. He would be glad to put some one else in charge of the pension of fice, but if anything like this particular change should be made, it would astonish the nearest friends of the secretary and commission beyond measure. It may be stated with great positiveness that Gen. Black has no idea of anything for the next year or two, except. REMAINING EXACTLY WHERE HE IS. If anybody has been planning a foreign mission for him, it is without his knowl edge. Gov. Glick did no service in the army, and Secretary Lamar and the entire administration are keenly alive to the pol icy of having some soldier, at the head of the pension office under all circumstances, but especially so long as an ex-Confederate is at the head of the department. There may be some prospect of Gov. Glick's appointment to another bureau, in the department. There is some other bureau chiefs whom the secre tary would like to unload, and there are other positions than the pension office that Gov. Glick would like. What Glick wanted and what he tried hard to get early in 1885. was the commissionership of the general land office. If that office was vacant Gov. Glick would be elegible for appointment to it, but if the commissionership of the pen sions should be given to any one but a soldier. Secretary Lamar's ideas of public policy have undergone a radical change. THE PRECIOUS 3IETAJLS. Official Statistics Kegarctingr Tbeir Production and Distribution. Washington, Aug. 8. — Dr. James P. Kimball, the director of the mint, has com pleted his report on the production of gold and silver in the United States during the calendar year 1885. The production of gold is estimated at $31.500,000, an increase of $1,000,000 over the estimate for the calendar year 1884. The production of silver for the calendar year 18S5, calculated at the coining rate in silver dollars, is esti mated $51,600,000, against $48,800,000 in 18S4, an increase of $2,800,000. Colorado still retains the foremost rank as the largest producer of the precious metals, California retaining second position. The most notable change has been in Montaua and Idaho, the production of the former having increased from 59, 000, 000 in 1884, to nearly $13,500,000 in 18S5, and the latter from 53,970,000 in 18S4, to $5,300,000 in 18S5. Nevada, Utah, New Mexico and Dakota still hold their own, while the production of Arizona has slightly decreased. The coinage executed during the calendar year at the coinage mints con sisted of 47,544,210 pieces of the face value of $56,926,810. Of this amount 3,002,313 pieces, valued at §27,773,012, consisted of gold coin, and 31,925,544 pieces, valued at $28,962,176, of silver coin, the remainder being minor coin. The NUMBER OF SILVER DOLLARS COINED during the calendar year 1885 was 28,697, --767. In addition to the coinage gold and silver bars of the value of $27,490,095 were manufactured by the mints and assay of fices during the year. The total value of the bullion and com imported into the United States during the calendar year was $41,418,129, of which $8,322,909 con sisted of bullion and $33,095,120 of coin. Of the total imports $23,645,311 consisted of gold and $7,772,718 of silver. The to tal exports of gold and silver from the United States during the same year was §44,697,749, of which $11,417,207 was gold and $33,280,542 silver. While the United States lost by net exportation during the year $15,507,824 in silver, it gained $12, --228,104 by net importation of gold. The report contains an elaborate review of the coin circulation of the United States. The directors' advance estimate of Jan. 1, 1886, is reviewed, as well as the estimates of his predecessor. Some errors in still earlier estimates have been corrected. A deduc tion from the stock of gold coin of $15, --669,981 is made for bullion in the treasury July 1, 1873, heretofore included as coin, and for an error in exports of gold coin as reported for 1874, $4,654,714, a total of $20,324,695. This, with the $30,000,000 deducted in his annual fiscal report, makes a total deduction of $50,324,695 from the estimates by his predecessor of THE STOCK OF G.OLD COIN. in the United States. The director esti mates that the amount of gold coin in the United States on Jan. 1, 1886, to have been 8533.485,453, of silver dollars $218,259,761, subsidiary silver $75,034,111, or a total stock of coin of 5526,779,325. Of the stock of gold coin, the United States treasury held over and above outstanding gold cer tificates $75,434,279, and the national banks §156,453,592, including treasury and clearing-house certificates. One thousand and fifteen state banks and trust companies held Nov. 1, 1885, 531,255,789, which left in the hands of the people and other banks $270,441,693. Of the silver dollars which have been coined, the United States treas ury owns (not represented by sil ver certificates) $72,538,725, the national banks $6,940,628. The amount owned by private individuals and other banks (including those in the treasury represented by certificates outstand ing) was $138,780,408. Of the subsidiary silver about $27,000,000 was in the treas ury and $47,000,000 outstanding. The di rector reviews the estimates of coin in cir culation by various private and public writers and adduces facts and figures in support of the correctness of his own esti mates. The report also contains statistics m regard to the OF THE PKECIOUS METALS. Circulars were sent to about 800 individ uals and firms whose business had led him to suppose that they were consumers of gold and silver in the ; industrial arts. Responses werereceived from 4,372 hrms, of which 2,700 proved to be consumers. The value of the gold used by the 2,700 firms during the calendar year 1885 was reported as follows: $10,837. --944 against 314,500,000 reported by about the same number of firms to the director of the mint in 1884. Of this amount about $2,800,000 consisted of United States coin and about $6,000,000 of stamped United States bars. The for eign coin used amounted to . $178,000 and old jewelry to $819,000, leaving only §467. --000 native grains and §559,000 of wire and rolled plate. The silver consumption re ported by the same firms was 53,470,000, of §124,910 consisted of United States coin, $2,773,975 of United States refinery bars, 840.000 of foreign coin and $219,000 of :' old jewelry, plate, etc., leaving only §94,000 of native grains and about $217,000 of wire and rolled plate. The result of this inquiry leads the director to the conclusion either that the consumption of gold and silver in the industrial arts has fallen off since 1883, or that there is less duplication in the re turus than heretofore as between original and secondary manufacturers. WHAT THEY THINK. The Democratic Rank and File Not in Harmony With. So-Called "Civil Service Reform." Special to the Globe. Washington, Aug. 8. — Occasionally during the recent session a few Democratic representatives of the franker sort, like Bennett of North Carolina and Gibson of West Virginia, gave utterance to the pre vailing dissatisfaction in the party in regard to the policy of the administration concern ing the federal offices, but these ebullitions of natural feeling were generally frowned upon as being unwise. The party leaders are now seeing that it is not so.easy to muzzle the rank and file of the Democracy at home. Gen. Cox, the present repre sentative of the Fourth North Carolina district, although formerly one of the most popular men in his state, as he is also one of the ablest members of the house, has had to WITHDRAW FROM THE CANVASS in his district on account of his course as chairman of the civil service committee, which has converted his popularity into un popularity of the most pronounced kind. The Eighth Virginia Democrats have just unanimously declined to pass a resolution of indorsement of the president, because the operation of his civil service policy tends to continue in office in that state a horde of Mahoneites. who arejobjeetionable to the respectable people of the state, polit ically, personally and socially. This is symptomatic of the feeling toward the president on this point throughout Virginia and in fact all over the South, and it is ex pected that the remaining Democratic con ventions will be heard from in a similar strain. According to the Indications on every hand it will not be long before this patent reform doctrine will have its strength put to a crucial test. MRS. CLEVELAND'S PICTURES. The Various Styles of Photograph! on Exhibition at Washington. Special to the Globe. . Washington, Aug. — There is much interest taken here in a display of a variety of Mrs. Cleveland's pictures. They are ex hibited in a photographer's window on the avenue. The largest is a magnificent panel fully two feet high, and represents the wife of the president standing erect, with her arms resting naturally in front of her. She is wearing a handsome gown, the front and -< waist of which are heavily trimmed with beaded fringe. The other pictures are smaller, of panel and cabinet size, and present Mrs. Cleveland's face or lull-length figure. Several of the pictures show her in a striking costume, while in others she wears a dress of pure white. The cabinets are likely to be the most pop ular. In one of them she has the head thrown slightly forward, with the eyes cast down. The clear-cut profile of her face is in shadow. A few pictures show her with a studious look on her face, but in the majority her countenance is lighted by a smile. CENTRAL. LABOR UNION* It Held a Stormy Session Yesterday and Several Members Came to Blows. New York. Aug. B.— The last regular meeting of the Central Labor union under its existing system, held this afternoon at Clarendon hall, was very lively. The principal change in the system to go into effect by next Sunday will be a division of the union into trade sections. It is be lieved that this will greatly facilitate the transaction of business. The personnel of the organization will remain as it is. The sections will transact routine matters and the general body will take up only business of importance. An unusually large num ber of delegates was present to-day. The chief question was that of the differences between the Knights of Labor and Pro gressive Cigarmakers' union, and the posi tion that the Central Union should take re garding them. A week ago the latter body passed a resolution expressing sym pathy with the Progressives. It was the intention of the Knights in the body to change the record to-day. The unionists began the battle, however. The German fresco painters handed in a communication advising that the Central union should ren der assistance, moral and financial, to the cigarmakers. There was an excited dis cussion, and the communication was finally laitl upon the table by a vote of 133 to 163. A motion to reconsider the resolution of sympathy was lost, for want of a two thirds vote. During the . discussion the members worked themselves up to almost white heat. Several of them, representing opposite factions, came to blows, and it looked at one time as though a general riot would occur. A DARING VOYAGE. Two Men in a. Cask Successfully Navigate the Whirlpool Rapids of Niagara. . Buffalo, N. Y m Aug. 8. — The turbu lent waters of the Niagara whirlpool rapids were again navigated in a cask to-day. The perilous feat being successfully accom plished by two men. . The daring voyagers were William Potts and George Hazlitt, two coopers, who are employed in the same shop with Graham, who made the initial trip about three weeks ago. The barrel boat was ten feet long, conical in form, and built of the best locust staves. It was sup plied with a keel, rudder, screw wheel and a turret, with glass covered peep-holes. About 300 pounds of sand ballast kept it right side up most of the time. The two men lay back to back while passing through the more turbulent waters, cling ing to handles.made fast to the side of the cask. Each man likewise kept on his own side of the cask by means of a canvas sling made fast to the staples. The start was made from the Maid of the Mist land ing, on the Canada side, at 4:25 p. m. A row boat towed the cask to a point - just above the cantilever bridge, where it was turned adrift in the middle of the . stream. The novel craft was submerged about half the time, while passing through the rapids, but while circumscribing the outer circle of the whirlpool its occupants thrust their heads through the opening and Potts calmly smoked a cigar. A successful landing was made at Queenston, on the Canada side, five miles further down the river. The en tire voyage occupied : fifty- five minutes. The feat was witnessed by :no less than 1,500 spectators. . NO. 2 2 1 CUTTING- CONVICTED. Scenes in the Court Boom at the Time When He Was Sen tenced. The Prisoner Eefuses to Eecognize Mex ican Jurisdiction and Appeals to his Country. Great Alarm on the Border Over the Result of the Trial. Botli Americans and Mexicans Excited, to a Dangerous Pitch. Trouble Ahead. El Paso, Tex., Aug. B.— As sentence was pronounced upon Cutting at Paso Del Norte, Mexico, last evening the prisoner turned slightly pale but was otherwise thoroughly composed. When the reading of the sentence was finished, he asked in a loud voice of the court, at the same time pointing to Medina, about the $600 fine,' "Is that creature to get any of it?" At this point Consul Brigham interposed to stop him. "If the prisoner uses insulting lan guage," said the judge, "1 can add some thing to the term of his sentence." Judge Brigham assured the court that neither he nor Cutting meant disrespect. "Let us understand," said Judge Brigham, "just what this is for." "It is for the publica tion on the other side of an article which is held to have vitiated a reconciliation made on this side." "And this act on the other side," continued Judge Brigham, "was construed on this side as A CONTEMPT OP COURT. To this the court replied in the negative. The court then turned to the prisoner and asked, "Do you still • stand under the protection of your government?" "1 do," replied Mr. Cutting. "Do you 1 wish to take an appeal to the supreme court?" the judge asked. "I have no appeal to make except to the gov ernment of the United States." "If you should desire to take an appeal," said Judge Zulra, "You have five days in which to give notice. Do you wish to sign the pro ceedings of this court?" "I sign nothing." "Do you wish to express satisfaction or dissatisfaction with the sentence?" "No, sir; 1 have never recognized your court or jurisdiction, and I do not recognize its right to imprison for one hour." Cutting was taken back to jail and will be sent to Chihuahua in a day or two. No sooner was the fact of Cutting's sentence known than both towns on the Mexican and the American side were "WILD "WITH EXCITEMENT. over the matter. Two secret meetings were held here and companies of minute men were organized, and the merchants fear harm if the soliers are not promptly on hand. They realize that congress only can declare war, but the superior number of Mexican soldiers in Paso Del Norte would play havoc with the single company now at Fort Bliss, one mile from El Paso. Arms and ammunition are not scarce, how ever, and citizens are secretly organizing so as to act on the defensive. Their . voice is unanimous for the vindication of American honor and the protection of our citizens. The Mexicans, too, are angry at the tone of our press, and people; are fearful of vio lence on account of the numerous mass meetings which are being held. A dis patch from Rio Grande city to-day says a heavy force of Mexican revolutionists crossed the river into Texas on Thursday night- A troop of the Eighth United States cavalry was ordered yesterday from Eingold barracks to pursue and disarm them. Washington, Aug. B.— Secretary Bay- . ard said to-night that he had not received the resignation of Mr. Jackson, minister to ~i Mexico, and that there was nothing new in the Cutting since the dispatch received yes terday from the United States consul, noti fying him of the prisoner's sentence. SOCIALIST PICNIC. It is Attended By Large Throngs-- Beer Flows Freely. Chicago, Aug, B.— Twenty-three pas senger coaches were chartered to the Social istic Publishing company this morning by the Lake Shore & Michigan Southern rail way. Into these cars men, women and children were packed like so many herrings. The party was bound for Sheffield, Ind., and the proceeds of the enterprise were to go towards defraying the costs of defending the anarchists now on trial. At 9 o'clock this train pulled out, followed later in the day by straggling crowds on the out-bound accommodation trains. A rough approxi mation places the number of the crowd at the picnic at between 5,000 and 6,000. Beer flowed freely, and there was more or less disorder but not of a serious character. About 5 p. m. Dr. Ernst Schmidt mounted an improvised platform and addressed the picnickers. His subject was the anarchist trial. Dr. Schmidt called upon his hearers to stand by the doctrine of socialism, and ;■ transmit it to their children. The men on on ■ trial, he said, were self constituted martyrs, who should be upheld and encour aged. He had no doubt that even a jury composed for the most part of capitalists would vindicate the cause of socialism and its advocates now on trial for their lives. He was glad that a sparsely advertised call like that put out last week had been responded to in so liberal a manner. The speaker was lustily cheered, and as he jumped down from his perch, shrill cries of "Neebe, Oscar Neebe," went up. That worthy, the only defendant out on bail, was on the outskirts of the crowd, an attentive listener to the doctor's discourse. He was promptly espied and carried to the fore on the shoulders tof enthusiastic admirers. The sight of the man seemed to craze , the crowd and the woods resonded with their huzzas. Neebe was too much overcome by the mental strain of the trial to make much of an address, he said, but on behalf of his "compatriots" he thanked the audience collectively and individually for their generosity. Neebe then branched off into a tirade against capitalists and the "capitalistic press," and the meeting wound up with him still on the stand, shouting "Long live the doctrine of socialism." AVAR TO THE KNIFE. The Missouri Coal miners, Failing: to Secure Arbitration* Will Fijfht.n St Louis, Aug. B.— The Huntsville, Mo., coal miners have prepared a circular, setting forth their views on the strike be gun on May 1 on account of the reduction in the price of mining from 94 cents to 80 cents per ton. At the interstate conven tion of miners and operators, held in Kan sas City on June 13, 1886, a resolution was passed, recommending that the troubles at Huntsville be made the I subject of arbitra -1 tion. The miners accordingly prepared an address to their employers, offering to ar bitrate their differences. Their proposal was for the miners to elect three men and the company three, each of these three to select one more, and these two to select a third, thus forming a company of nine arbitrators, to inform . themselves thor oughly concerning the situation -of the miners and the business and decide the price per ton to be paid for mining. The offer to arbitrate has been refused by the operators and war to the knife declared against the miners, according to the tetter's statement of the case. The men have accepted the gage thus thrown down and a prolonged struggle will ensue. Ordered to China. New York. Aug. B.— The United State* steamer Essex will store ■ her magazine at Ellis island with powder : to-morrow, and then proceed to join the China a^uadroii.
