THE TREASURY NEEDS COIN Secretary Alger Asks for 349.000 to Make Spare Parts of Rifles-Senate and House fizPass: Numerous Bills— Other Proceedings «in Congress Yes- terday—Some of the Bills That; “74ers Passed. VVashingfton, June 9,—Secretary Gage sent to the House a. recommendation for an appropriation of $250,000 for wages and contingent expenses at mints in coining gold and subsidiary silver during the next fiscal year. He also sent a statement of gold bullion now in the treasury and the need for its conversion for use. The secretary called attention .to the $97,000,000 in the treasury on June 1 and the necessity for its conversion in- to coin. ‘ He said: “On Jnlv 1, 1897, the amount of gold bullion held by the treasury was $25,- 575,028; on June 1,- 1898, $96,998,864, an increase of $71,423,836. The coinage of gold from July 1, 1897, to'June 1, 1898, aggregated $57,730,930, which about equals the domestic production for the period. The increase in gold bullion in the treasury is due to the large im- portation of foreign gold deposited, amounting from July 1, 1897, to June 1, 1898, to $72,437,500. - “Th-e mints at Philadelphia, New Orleans and San Francisco are now working eight hours a day. Of the gold bullion in the treasury, $92,000,000 is at the assay office at New .York and the‘mint at Philadelphia, and to re- duce materially the stock in a reasona— ble time, it will be necessary .to run overtime at Philadelphia for several months. While the gold bullion at San Francisco is now about $4,500,000, it will be increased in July and August by receipts from the Klondike of prob- ably not less than from $12,000,000 to $15,000,000. It probably will be neces~ Isary to work the mint at San Francis- co overtime for two or three months, especially should further; importations of gold be made from Australia.” Latter Secretary Alger sent to the House a request forl'an appropriation of $40,000 for machinery, etc., for the .Springfiell, Mass. arsenal, for the man- ufacture of spare partsof rifles and the hands of troops, with the present manufacture of complete rifles and carbines. Bills Passed in the House. In the House yesterday these Sen- ate amendments to the sundry civil bill were agreed to: ' : , Improving the harbor of Wilming- ton, and Christiana. river, Delaware: continuing improvement of' the harbor at Oakland, CELL; appropriating $250,000 for the protection of the Sacramento and Feather rivers, CalifOrnia. THE SOUTHERN VOLUN TEEas Becx-uited‘from the Coun- try District. Raleigh, N. C., June 9.—It is a. nota— ble fact that the class of men who have enlisted for the war in North and South Carolina are nearly all representatives of the “working class”—machanics and farmers. Fully 90'per cent. of the reg;- m'e'nt now in camp in this city is com— posed of that class. utside of the com- missioned officers very few of the young men known as the representatives of the “best families” are to be found in the regiment. The majority of the men are farmers. This city ,t second lar- gest in the state, and W ington, the largest city in the state, the two cities having a population of about 20,000 have only one company each, and some trouble was expu‘ienced in recruiting those two up to the full _quota, while such little villages as Waynesville, N. C., and other little. towns (especially in the mountains) have furnished twu or more companies each, and enough applications for enlistment for an- other company from each village.

President May Urge Congreés by Special , Me sage. .,Washington, June. 9,—The president does not intend to4let, Congress adjourn without taking action upon the annex- ation of Hawaii. _‘ ' ' It is Stated that Should Speaker Reed and his lieutenants on the floor contin— ue their,,present tactics of pushing pri— vileged questions to the front and pre- venting the consediration of the Ha- waiian resolution, President McKinley will send .a message to Congress on the necessity of action at once. . Ill. is said that if President McKinley becomes satisfied within the next few days that Congress is contemplating a speedy adjournment. after the adoption of the war revenue bill, he will not delay his message long-er thanthe first of next week.‘ Several senators said yesterday open- ly that they did not think Congress could be held here after the passage of the general deficiency bill, the last ap— propriation bill yet. unfinished. The friends of Speaker Reed say that his only Object in opposing theresolution is because he does not think it policy .‘to pass the bill now. The annexation senators say that :should Congress send the customary committee to the president to inform him that hey had IOnished their work and were ready to adjourn, the ~presi— :dent would announce to this committee that Hawaiian annexation was of such importance at this mme that he would feel justified in calling an extra ses- sion. This intimation, it is believed, would bring speedy action. ATTACK MANILA "sv SEA AND LAND. Governor Gen. Reports to Madrid That the Situation-There Is Very Grave. 'Madrid, June 9.-—The captain gen- eral of the Philippines says the situa- tion at Manila is very grave. Aguill- aldo has succeeded in stirring up the whole country. Manila is to be at- tacked by land and sea. There are many dcsertions from the Spaniards. The insurrection has reached great pro porti on s. The minister of war, General Correa, received news from the Philippine is- lands yesterday and communicated it to the premier, Senor Sagasta, saying the govelgpor general of that colony, General Airgusti, asked for full liberty of action. He added that Aguinaldo, the insurgent lead-av, continues to ,ex— cite a general insurrection in the. arch— ipelago. ‘ - . -. A dispatch from the commandenof the Visayas says that Official sent two gunboats to the island of Luzon-‘with instructions to try to communicate with Manila, but they were compelled to return unsuccessful. . The government, it is added, replied instructing the Commander of the Vi— sayas to restore communication with Manila at all costs. General Corré‘a declined to furnish the text Of the dispatches for publica- tion, but a member of the government, whose name cannot be use‘d,.*admitt‘ed that the dispatch Of Spanish trOOps to the Philippine islands 'could’ not ‘changc the situation. He addel: " ’ " “We could send 6,000 troops, but if the natives are,ag‘ainst us such a force Would be inadequate. If theywere with Us it would not be necessarv to‘ send troops to the Philippine islands.” .. ‘ THE CUBAN BLOCKADE Gunboats Making Matters Lively for Spaniards at Cardenas. Key West, Fl-a.,_June 9.——An auxili- ary gunboat Which arrived here yester- day niorning from Cardenas, reports all quiet there, except that the auxili- ary gunboat Leyden is making things lively for the Spaniards by blazing away at them wheneVer she sees a movement on the Spanish gunboats or on the defensive works. ‘ The British colller Heath, a sister ship of the Restormel, was held up on June 4 by an American gunboat. Not responding promptly to a. blank shot, a solid shot was sent across her bows. Next day she was held up by a sec- ond gunboat and obeyed immediately. She was in ballast, bOund for Mobile from San Juan do Porto Rico, where she had discharged her cargo of coal. Caimanera Shelled for Two Hours. Cape Haytien, June 9.—Five Ameri— can warships began the bombardment Of Caimanera at 5.30 Tuesday morning. The firing was heavy and continued until 2 o‘clock in the afternoOn. The shells fell in the town of Calma- nera, doing great damage and forcing the Spanish artillery to retreat. There will undoubtedlygbe a fierce struggle there, as the Spanish troops expect an effort will be made to land troops and they are prepared to stand their ground to the last, when the Am- ericans debark. Caimanera is Ithirtv miles east of Santiago. It is the point where the shore cable from Santiago leaves the south coast of Cuba. Admiral Sampson has been instructed emphatically to destroy this cable con- nection and'it was undoubtedly to com— pletely shut off Santiago from cable connection that five ships from his squadron were sent to bombard Calms- nera. . “'iIlI Cllickamauga Army. Chattanooga National. Military Park, Tenn., June 9.—The usual drills and manoeuvres are employing the various regiments of~LTeneral Brooke’s volun~ teer army. The. temperature is high. but it was again relieved somewhat by a steady breeze. What the Whole army is now praying for is a hard downpour of rain. . , The dust is increasing daily and un- less rain soon abales it, it will become an almost unbearable nuisance. Thou- sands of horses and wagons constantly. moving along the park roads and the long dry spell have combined to make this nuisance the worst, and in fact the only, considerable one with which the army has to contend. A movement is now on foot to have President 'McKinley and such of his cabinet officers as can accompany him inspect the park army on the Fourth of July. A formal invnation will 'be extended and’ the president will be urged to accept. - Rifle Inventor Dead.
