The director of the mint with the approval of the "secretary of the treasury yesterday issued the following special instructions to the superintendent of the assay office in New York City.

In cases of deposits of foreign gold coin or foreign erold bars at the United States assay office at New York, such approximation of the value of bullion delivered, as in the dis cretion of the superintendent may be regarded as safe and proper and not to exceed 90 per cent, of the value, will be paid, pending melt and assay. The purpose of this regulation is to encourage so far as can be legally done by the government tne importation of foreign gold into the United States by allowing importers spot cash value for foreign gold as on as received at the assay office, instead of requiring them to wait two or three days and sometimes longer while the deposits are be ing melted and the exact gold coined, determined by chemical analysis. It has been a matter of general ac ceptance that both the bank of France and the bank of Germany, in order to stimulate the export of gold from the United States, have been in the habit of crediting banking houses in Paris and Berlin with the value of gold shipped to them at New York at the date of shipment, thus lessening the rest of the movement by the interest of the amount during the whole period of transit. It was stated some time ago that some of the banks in New York were going to do the same thing. Of course, the government cannot legally make payments for the value of gold shipped to this country until it is actually received at the counter in New York.

The only thing that it can legal ly do is to expedite the payment, thus saving interest to the importer, which the director has sought to accomplish by the regulation. BOULA.NGER INCIDENTS. A Portrait of His Mist res and the White Hair of His mother Stained With His Blood Suicide Meditated. Brussels, Oct. 1.

On learning of the suicide of Gen. Boulanger, Prince Victor Bonaparte called and remained at the residence for half an hour. The room in which the body lies is sumptuously furnished. It is draped in blue silk and adorned with a large portrait of himself, his daughter and Mme. de Bonnemain.

A large photograph of Mme. de Bonne-main was found under the clothing next to his heart. The photograph was stained with blood from the wound. There were no documents' on the body. In addition to the photograph of Mme.

de Bohnemain, a lock of white hair woven into the shape of a heart was found next to Tioulanger's heart. The general had written a long letter to his mother announcing his departure on a long voyage and bidding her not to be uneasy. His remark in the presence of his valet, "Though I am abandoned by everybody I still know what to do, appears to confirm the report that the real cause of his suicide was the stoppage a few days ago of political subsidies from supporters, indicating that his career was' finished. It is rumored that the archbishop of Malines has refused to authorize a religious service on the occasion of the funeral. The property left by Mme.

Bonne-main had been judiciously tied up in order to prevent her bequeathing it to Gen. Boulanger. The first sojourn of the pair in Brussels and in London cost $200,000. Another $200,000 was frittered away over his papers and election funds. Beyond needless extravagance the general never tried to feather his own nest, as did many of his pretended adherents.

NOW A MURDERER. The Son of a Good St. Louis Family Consorts With Criminals. Chicago, Oct. Since the arrest of Billy Meyers and Joseph Dollus for the supposed murder, of Ebenezer F.

Gales, who was found dead on the steps of 203 Rush street, but little that is known in the case has been brought to light. Schwertzer, the missing member of the trio, who took Gales on his fatal ride, is still at large. Yesterday afternoon H. Wiggins, a civil engineer, called at the armory and wanted to know where Dollus was locked up. Later Mr.

Wiggins went to the jail and identified Dollus as Joseph Dallas, the son of the superintendent of the budweiser department of the Anheuser-Busch Brewing Co. The family stands high in St. Louis and is wealthy. Some years ago, it is Dollus, despite his brilliant prospects, began consorting with the criminal class. His father helped him out of a number of scrapes, and when patience ceased to be a virtue disowned his son and threw him out of the house.

A Meeting of Considerable Importance the liorae Rale Movement. Chicago, Oct. 1. Possibly the most important public gathering of the Irish race ever held this side of the Atlantic began here to-day. IX was the convention of the Irish National league of America, and of societies and individuals throughout the United States and Canada in sympathy with that organization.

The first incident attracting general attention was an outbreak of hearty cheering which greeted the appearance on the stage of Dr. Thomas O'Reilly, of St. Louis. Hearty applause quickly followed as other celebrities in Irish-American circles, such as M. V.

Gannon, of Omaha, and Judge-James Fitzgerald, of Cincinnati, loomed into view. O'Neill Ryan, of St. Louis, was introduced as temporary chairman, and he promptly launched into a ringing address, foreshadowing the policy of the gathering. They were not there, Mr. Ryan said, to uphold any section or faction, but he hoped to say to the Irish people in Ireland that when they presented a strong and united front, then, and not till then, should they receive the moral and material support of the Irish people in America.

Only an aggressive movement, independent of both English parties, could command the unstinted aid from America that had been nobly given for the last ten years. The chairman's strong speech was punctuated throughout with enthusiastic cheers. Mr. Gallagher, of New York, moved the immediate appointment of a com mittee of nine on credentials. Mr.

Me-Guerk, of Iowa, offered an amendment giving each state a representative, and a number of Canadian delegates clamored for a. man from their side of the line. The Can adians were more successful than the Iowans, and the committee was finally announced as follows: M. D. Gallagher, New York; Edmund Lynch, of Missouri; John Flannery, of Pennsylvania; John F.

Hynes, of Ohio; William H. Joyce, of Illinois; Maj. M. Langanan, of Wisconsin; George Mona- han, of Kansas; Lawrence Sullivan, of Massachussetts; P. M.

Mulhern, of Georgia and Patrick Boyle, of Canada. NORWOOD'S PLAN. A Substitution For the Sub-Treasury Scheme Outlined. Atlanta, Oct. 1.

Thomas M. Norwood, ex-United States senator from Georgia, speaking before the leg islature by invitation last evening, proposed a substitute for the sub-treasury scheme. His idea was that congress should di rect the secretary of the treasury to issue a sufficient number of legal tender notes of convenient denominations, to be distributed among the different states and territories in such a propor tion that it will give, including the existing currency or banking cap ital, 30, 540 or $50 per capita, as may be determined. These notes are to be receivable jor all debts and dues, except duties on imports. They are to be redeemed by the United States government on presentation to the treasury or the sub-treasuries established at convenient cities.

The treasurer will hold at least 25 per cent, of the issue in coin, gold and silver, to redeem the notes, that being enough and as much as the banks now hold for redemption purposes. The percentage of coin necessary can be regulated by experience. Congress is to decide the amount of currency needed per capita and each state will receive on demand a sufficient amount, which, added to the banking capital, will give the required proportion. The plan avoids leaerai action, as each state will lend money to its farm ers on the state's especial products at a low rate of interest through a bureau of finance, taking such securities as a prudent bank would take on loans. The volume of currenc vr thus distributed would remain equal and permanent in each state, the people receiving the benefit of the use of the money and the state the interest.

Ignored By the Company." Topeka, Oct. 1. The state board, of railroad commissioners this morning turned over to Gov. Humphrey the case pending against the Missouri Pacific for failure to steel rails the track of relay with the Kansas Central. The officers of the company have ignored the order of the commis- sioners when compelled to answer complaints have framed excuses which cannot be accepted either by the com missioners or the patrons of the road.

Gov. Humphrey turned the matter over to Attorney-General Ives with instructions to begin proceedings at once. It is probable that if the road is not put in shape at once the charter of the road will be revoked and the entire company enjoined from operating it Lucky Deacon White. New Yokk, Oct. 1.

The following statement as to S. V. White was made semi-officially "All the corn for account of White which has been carried by brokers whose names have been used in connection with his affairs has been liquidated except 800,000 bushels. It was margined far below any price the market ever reached and the favorable turn in the quotations will enable Mr. White to resume next week and save a considerable sum from the wreck from $350,000 to $500,000."

The Commissioner Aaerts That His Enemies Are Striking; at Him Through His Son Accased Employes Deny IIU Statements. TROUBLE IN RAUM'S BUREAU. Washington, Oct. Pension Commissioner Raum has demanded the dismissal of three pension clerks. One ol the three is F.

M. Taylor, of Illinois, who held the office of special examiner. The comissioner claims, in a report to Secretary Noble, that Mr. Taylor has been a party to a conspiracy to bring him, Gen. Raum, into disrepute.

Mr. Taylor takes the complaint calmly. He said that if Gen. Raum considered that he was an enemy that the general was very much mistaken. His time, he said, was fully occupied in looking after his own interests and he did not have time to attend to the business of other people.

The other clerks whom the commissioner calls upon the secretary to dismiss are Edgar Engle, of Pennsylvania, Edward Howard. Engle and Howard are the clerks who recently presented affidavits to Secretary Noble, charging Green B. Raum, with attempting to obtain money for himself in consideration of his influence with his father to procure them promotion. Secretary Noble sent for Engle and Howard and questioned them closely about the charges. Young Raum, it will be remembered, was called upon to resign his place in the pension office last summer under charges.

He made a counter affidavit which he has sent to Secretary Noble, denying the statements made by Eugle and Howard. He states that the idea of his attempting to carry on an office brokerage business is preposterous and that his entire energies are devoted to establishing himself in business. Gen. Raum has taken a very aggressive position, nis demand for the removal of. Taylor shows this.

Taylor, whether justly or not, is considered by pension office people to be a protege of Secretary Noble. Gen. Raum and his son have laid their matters before the president as well as before the secretary. Gen. Raum stated that he was always ready and willing to meet any criticism upon his administration of the office.

He was not afraid of hit office since he had been commissioner of pensions, but he believed in fair methods even in a fight. He added that he did not propose to be driven out of office, and that the men who seemed to desire most his retirement to private life had adopted a policy which was most likely to defeat their object. Engle and Howard were seen last evening, and they both said that jf they had committed any crime, of which, however, they were not aware, which consisted entirely in telling the truth about the attempt made by Mr. Raum, to use his father's influence for a money consideration, they iiad in the affidavits presented to the secretary merely narrated the facts as they had occurred and had made no reference or allusion to Gen. Raum.

The blame, if blame there was. consisted, they said, in telling the truth. They were entirely willing to abide by their action and trust to the good judgment of the secretary in his consideration of what they termed the singular request of Gen. Raum. AFFAIRS IN GUATEMALA.

Revolutionists Reported Marching on the Capital. Nenton, Guatemala, Oct. 1. News of the most sensational character has been received here during the past twenty-four hours. It is stated direct from the City of Guatemala that an army of 1,000 men, which is receiving constant accessions from the country through which it is marching, is approaching the capital in the direction of Quezaltenago.

Nothing more is knqwneas the wires are in the hands of the government. The capital is under martial law, and the streets are patrolled night and day by mounted army police. The palace and Barillas' house are guarded by detachments of infantry and cavalry. Batteries are planted in all doorways of these two buildings. At all barracks patrol guards are maintained to prevent their seizure in case of another uprising.

Troops have been dispatched from the cify, it is said, for the purpose of intercepting the march of the revolutionists on the capital. Requested the Facts. Rome, Oct. 1. The two Georgia evangelists, Sam W.

Attachments have been issued for the reverend gentlemen. Small is now in Mississippi.

1 About 4 o'clock yesterday afternoon small. fleecy clouds, which gathered until they resembled banky collections of wool, began to form around Goodland, just above the horizon. They were new clouds for this section, and the ever- watchful Mr. Jones, Rainmaker Frank Melbourne's man Friday, joyfully ex claimed: "That's our brand." The oldest inhabitant had never seen clouds form in a forty -mile-an-hour wind. Melbourne was highly elated.

He pronounced his work the best he had ever yet accomplished in one day, and said that rain would come one day sooner than he had expected. The clouds gradually changed until they had shifted from south to north, and at 10 o'clock last light the onjy clear sky was in the south. The north ern horizon was black, the heaviest cloud being about 45 degrees from the horizon. The cloud hung the entire night, and around it THE RAINMAKER. the storm center, gathered.

At 7 o'clock this morning it was clear in the eastern horizon at 10 degrees, but the remaining heavens were nid oy a uniform covering of heavy, grayish clouds. Two hours later a misty rain began to fall. All this time the velocity of the wind had not perceptibly decreased. This, too, was something new for the plains of Kansas at this season of the year. Dispatches received at the railway office stated that it was clear 140 miles east of Goodland, but that rain had fallen at Colorado Springs, 180 miles west.

A rain at Colorado Springs from the mountains is a common occurrence, but the doubting Thomases seized upon it as an excuse to remark: "We would have had rain anyhow." Possibly it would have rained had the Australian remained in Idaho, but twelve hours ago these same men declared that if it rained in this section of the state with in the allotted four days the rain test was perfect. About 10 o'clock this morning the sun shone through the clouds, but it was only for a minute that the misty rain was stopped. The clouds are now gathering thick and fast and rain is looked for before midnight. Prof. Taylor, of the Man hattan agricultural college, has re ceived dispatches from Denver and Dodge City stating that the barometer in those cities fell rapidly yesterday and that there were indications of rain.

Prof. Taylor has no faith in Melbourne, and declared that even if it should rain no one could conclude that Melbourne had influenced the elements. Later The clouds which had been gathering for sixteen hours broke at 1 o'clock this afternoon and rapidly scattered. Within a few minutes only a few white clouds were to be seen in the sky. Mr.

Jones always happy, de clared it was just what Mr." Melbourne desired. I he rain be promised on schedule time. LAND BILL ALLEN." The Father of the Homestead Law Enters the County Infirmary. Columbus, Oct. 1.

A man 86 years of age was sent to the county infirmary yesterday. He spent the best part of his life in aiding the working men and working women of the country. His name is Allen, but he is better known as "Land Bi 1 Allen." Over fif ty years ago Mr. Allen commenced the work of his life for his fellow-men. At that time he lived in Perry county.

He was the owner of a valuable farm and was surrounded by a happy family. He commenced the agitation for the homestead law and traveled the country over at his own delivering speeches and lectures in furtherance of his work. lie addressed legislatures and helped to mold public sentiment until at last congress passed the national homestead law, giving every actual settler 160 acres of land. For this work Mr. Allen was highly praised.

but he received no pay. He spent his fortune in this cause. Members of his family died one after another, and now he is in the poor house. Probable. Fatal Accident.

Life of TO BLOW UP BRIDGE. The Bomb Kxplode Before the Emperor's Train A rrive The Damage Repaired and the Train Passes Safely Over. ATTEMPTED ASSASSINATION. Vienna, Oct. 1.

Emperor Francis Joseph arrived at Reichenberg, near morning-, and with, his advent the news of an alleged attempt upon the life of the imperial traveler spread all over "Austria. The general opinion is that the story is either untrue or else exaggerated, but it has caused a great sensation nevertheless. The story is that last night an attempt was made with a dynamite bomb to blow up the railroad bridge at Rosenthal, a suburb of Reichenberg, shortly before the emperor's train was to pass over the bridge. Some railroad watchmen saw the assassins as they were attaching the bombs to the bridge and by appearing frustrated their design. The railroad officials who have circulated this alarming story have not as yet explained whether the men intended to destroy the Reichenberg bridge as the imperial train was approaching it or whether it was the intention to wait until the emperor's train was upon the bridge.

The official investigation shows that two bombs charged with nitro-glycerine were placed in the gutter, or draining portion, of the tunnel of the bridge. Attached to these bombs was a fuse evidently calculated to cause their explosion at the moment the imperial train was passing the mined spot. The assassins seem, however, to have miscalculated the time the train was to pass near the bombs, or they were at fault as to the length of life of the fuse used. In any case, the fuse acted at 11:30 p. "Wednesday, before the imperial train even drew near to the dangerous location.

The explosion destroyed the masonry above and about the bridge tunnel, and disturbed the roadbed, but did not affect the bridge structure. The railroad officials who had been attracted to the scene of the explosion, after making a thorough examination of both the bridge and the roadbed, set a gang of men to work upon the latter and soon had it in a good state of, repair. Consequently, when the imperial train passed at 7 o'clock this morning, there was little or no trace of the explosion. The officials who have charge of the investigation profess to be of the opinion that the explosion was intended as a demonstration of approval with some of the emperor's acts, and that those engaged in the "-demonstration" had no intention of taking the life of the emperor. Now that it is officially admitted that explosive bombs have been used in some manner along the line of the emperor's journey, the greatest excitement prevails.

The general feeling is one of indignation against those engaged in the conspiracy, and the emperor's loyal subjects are unanimous in expressing the hope that the bomb exploders might be caught and severely punished, even if their acts were only some kind of a political "demonstration." The police are actively following up clews already obtained and further revelations and possible arrests are expected at any moment. Francis Joseph is 61 years old. He has reigned over Austria for forty-three years and over Hungary for twenty-four years. No arrests have been made. THE WILSON MURDER.

Thomas Shade Emerges From the Shadows and Bays He Did Not Kill the Deputy Marshal. Tahlequah, Oct. Thomas Shade, a full-blood Cherokee, a party to the murder of Deputy United States Marshal Wilson on AVednesday of last week, came in and surrendered to the United States authorities last evening. He is charged with having assisted Sam Downing in the crime by beating the -wounded marshal's brains out with a club, after he had been shot through the breast by Downing. The prisoner, when seen by a reporter, said regarding his crime and the circumstances surrounding it: am not implicated in the murder of Wilson, but I thought best to surrender.

I did not see the killing, but saw Downing after he had accomplished his purpose, and talked with him. Downing told me that he had just killed a marshal and wanted me to help to drag him off to the woods, and I refused." Shade's story is contradicted by one or two women who were present and say they saw Shade approach the marshal and beat his brains out, then, assisted by Downing, carried the murdered man off to the woods. Shade is known to be a very bad character, and wanted by the United States authorities on several charges. It is known also that there is a large reward offered for his capture. The Cherokees are preparing to make a raid on the neighborhood where Downing is supposed to be in hiding, and they will be assisted by Deputy United States Marshal Bowden, one of the most daring officers in the Indian territory.
