Grover Cleveland Not Satisfied
With Interview.
Weekly Trade Review Situation at
Belgrade Postoffice Chief Removed.
Genesee Huntsman Shot Bridge
Carried Away Government Vessel
Seized Fifth Victory For Reliance,
Ex-President Grover Cleveland on
being shown an alleged interview
reported by Mr. Bailey of the Galves-
ten News, made1 the following state
ment to a correspondent:
"I am very much astonished to. see
such an outcome from a visit made to
me by one who only gained friendly
access to me by reason of his being a
representative of a paper formerly con
ducted and owned by my deceased
friend, Colonel Bailey and now con
ducted by his sun.
"I don't know whether Mr. Bailey
intended It or not, but "no has given
a very erroneous Impression of what
occurred .between us.
"If I had dreamed that he would at
tempt to construct an Important inter
view dealing with important subjects
out of what was said on the occasion
of his visit I would certainly have in
sisted, according to my habit, upon its
being then and there reduced to writ
ing and submitted to me. Instead of
gaining the least intimation of such an
intention on his part his first words
were that he knew an ex-president
was not a person to be Interviewed
and he left me without the least hint
that I had been Interviewed for publi
cation. "All I enre to add Is that the sub
stance of the Interview as published
is in some respects grossly inaccurate.
There are statements In it attributed
to me that I certainly would not have
made to n person no nearer to me and
no more in my confidence than Mr.
Bailey."
The alleged interview to which Mr.
Cleveland objects credited him with
Eaylng that it was absurd to suppose
for an instant that he had any de
sire to re-enter public life, or to have
even remotely entertained tho thought
since he left Washington six years
ago.
Mr. Bailey's Statement.
"In answer to my letter," said Mr.
Bailey, "I received a letter frcra Mr.
Cleveland saying 'I have received your
letter of the 4t.h Instant, sug
gesting a visit to my home on your
way to New York Jn behalf of your
paper,' but suggesting the visit bo de
ferred until after his return front
Ohio, as he was very busy then and
If the trip were postponed 'the chances
of a satisfactory visit would be great
ly increased."
"In view of this response it is be
yond my conjecture what It could be
thought I was In Princeton for except
to get a story for my paper. I would
gladly have submitted my copy to Mr.
Cleveland if he had requested it, and
If there Is any inaccuracy In any part
of my story I regret it but as no spec
ification Is made as to inaccurate
statements I cannot know to what part
the criticism Is offered. Certainly
there wa3 no purpose to do Mr. Cleve
land any Injustice."
Enormous Production of Pig Iron.
Evidence multiplies that the sec
ond week of Juno saw the turning
point for the better In crop, trade and
labor matters. The flooded districts
of the West are gradually winning
out, rehabilitation and repair are mak
ing good progress, some new business
Is developing there',, and the feeling is
much more optimistic than earlier In
the month.
Pig Iron and steel are weaker, buy
ing Is still slow and production Is at
an enormous rate. An important but
expected decline has materialized In
lead, and cotton, owing to manipulative
handling, has advanced, further com
plicating the situation of manufact
ured goods.
Cotton has fluctuated wildly, at one
time showing advances of 50 to 60
points on the new crop and 23 points
on spots, but most of this was lost
later on good crop advices, reports of
poor buying by manufacturers hero
and abroad, and a feeling that, while
the old crop is hopelessly cornered,
next season's prices are held too high.
Pig iron production is at tho rate
of 21,000,000 tons yearly, and buyers
Etill hold off, whence weakness and
declines of 15 cents to $1 per ton at
all markets. Resales of Imported iron
are at concessions. Steel is easier and
finished products are less active.
I Anthracite coal Is called for more
rapidly than it can be furnished.
Foreign Newspapers Censored.
All foreign newspapers are delayed
In delivery at Helgrade to enable tho
Authorities to deface the accounts
end comments of the tragedy at the
Konnk.
Fearing the effect of the Austro
Russian denounclatlon of the assassin,
atlons, the; conspirators have taken
an oath not to divulge one another's
names or any particulars of the trag
edy. One of them declares that 50
pounds of dynamite was placed in the
palace with the intention of blowing
up the building In the event of the
royal curple att emitting to escape.
Many people here arc cf the opin
ion that Russia's demand for the pun
ishment of the murderers Is pre; ext. to
gain a focthcld In Servian affairs sd
that Kin; Peter will bo complied
to grant concessions to stave oft the
Ktis.-.lan demand.
Money Order Chief Retr.o.cJ.
As a result of alio .-ed I n . 1 ; re:i :ti In
regard to award uf runt acta fur
printing the money ordor forms of tht
government, James T. Metcalf, fci
many years superintendent of tht
aitwey order system of the posiofllce
iepartment, was remoed from offlct
by the postmaster general. A full in
restlgation of the case will be made
later.
The dismissal Is the result of acts
of Mr. Metcalf in opposition to tht
bid cf Paul Herman of Rutherford
N. J., the lowest bidder by $45,000.
and In favor cf the next higher bidder
the Wynkocp, Ilallenheck, Crawford
Company of Ne.v York, cf which Mr
Metcalf's son Is an employe.
Rural Free Delivery Routes.
The department has resumed the es
tablishment of rural free deliver)
routes, which were hold up on account
of the deficit In the appropriation fot
that service, and a largo number ol
routes will bo put Into operation on
July 1, the beginning of the new fiscal
year. Tho policy of tho department
hereafter will bo to establish routes
as rapidly as possible, consistent with
the best Interests of the service and
economic administration. The rule as
to the number cf families required to
service, probably will be more strict
ly adhered to. The rule requires thai
no service shall be established on a
route on which the are, less than
100 families.
Africander Won Suburban.
tor the first time In a score ol
years the Suburban handicap, great
est of American turf events, was won
by a three-year-old. Africander, swift
and game son of Star Ruby-Afric
Queen, finished first in a splendid field

His victory was marred by a claim
of foul made by Gearge Odom, ridei
of Herbert, the second horse, but the
judges decided that the winner had
earned his prize aud let the race stand
ns run.
Thirteen hours cf steady rain had
turned the track into a deep muddy
swamp. The time, 2:10 2-5, was the

Genesee Valley Huntsman Shot.
Clarence Hall, first whip of the
Genesee Valley Hunt, was shot nt
Geneseo on Friday night at the
keeper's home near the foxhound ken
I'els and seriously wounded.
, The shooting was most mynorlouf'
and it Is not known whether Hall was
mistaken for somebody else and shot
or whether hotind thieves were at
work. A young woman was seen about
the village during the evening, and
ns she had no known connection witb
the hunt her presence caused remark
The local officers are working on the
theory that the woman had something
to do with the shooting.
Brldpe Carried Away by Log Jam.
The heavy rains of the past several
days near Gloversvilje, N. Y., caused
a freshet along the Saoandaga river
Sunday and a jam of several thous
and logs was formed which gave way
at-Sacnndaga park, carrying with It
a portion of the bridge belonging to
the Fonda, Johnstown and Gloversville
railroad connecting the park with the
Island, where the State league ball
grounds are located. A large force
of men were unable to prevent the de
struction of the bridge which will be
speedily repaired.

ENSATIGHAL CHARGES.
Made by the Washington Post
In Posto.'ilce Matters.
Second Order For 10.C03 Placed Al
thoegh First Order cf 7.C00 Were
Not Used Post Says Ex-Congressman
Loud Was Active In Pressing
the Ccvice on the Department.
Washington, June 23. Tho Post
says that an;tng the matters which
Fcurth Assistant Postmaster Gjneral
ErlstoA- Is investigating Is the pur
chase from a California company, the
Postal Device and Improvement
company, of some 17,000 letter devices
for Indicating the hours of collection
of mail. Tho Invention is that of tht
postmaster at San Francisco, it is
said.
It is also said that .7,000 of these de
vices originally were ordered at a
cost of $4 or more each, or a profit
of 100 per cent on test, and the alle
gation is made that a further order for
10,000 more v,i3 placed notwithstand
ing tho original 7,000 devices were
not used but were reposing In a store
house. The company controlling the devlco
was largely ruado up of California
postal employees and the Pest says
that it Is Informed ex-Representative
Loud of California, former chairman of
the house p.stolflce committee, took
an active part in their behalf . and
wrote several letters urgiug tho de
vice In the depariment, and in one ot
them said It woud bo an accommoda
tion to hiin if the matter wa3 attend
ed to.
Artcr tho company had difficulty In
securing It money for the device,
Mr. Loud, the Post s?ys, appeared at
the department In Its behalf, but spec
ifically disclaimed any interest in tho
company ether tlmn that It was com
posed cf his constituents.
During his recent visit to this city,
Mr. loud, en certain of hl3 visits to
the depar'ment, took up some cf
these unpaid bills, making It. plain,
however, that he appeared only In be
half of constituents and not as one
financially Interested In the company.
; Tho nlle.Tatlcn was nude, tho Post
says, that $!.".000 cf the deficiency cf
$105,000 in the free delivery service
wl'h which Mr. Marhen Is charged,
wa due to purrhflw rf he device In
question, but Pt the" pr;.-tofflre depart
ment this wbs denied and the state
ment made that while the matter was
under InverligrMon the complaint
might have been rcT'tlonary and in
tended against the investigation.
CUNARD LINE'S WITHDRAWAL.
No
Danger of a Rate War, Says
James A. Wright.
New York, Jne 2'i. -When James
A. Wright of the International Navi
gation company was shn.vn tho Cun-arj-
line statement as to withdrawal
from International Mercantile Marine
company and asked what he thought
about, that line's position he replied:
"I don't think there is any danger
ot a rate war. When several parties
are doing business together under an
agreement and when one cf. these par
ties think that certain changes are
necessary they give notice and wish
to have the agreement revised. This
seems to be the condition of the Cun
ard line. They have asked for a re
vision of the agreement. So far this
revision has not bc?n accomplished
and they have exercised their privilege
to withdraw. I cannot prophesy what
the outcojre will be but whatever is
done will probably be settled up:;n nt
the other side."
Mr. Steele of J. P. Morgan & Com
pany -said concerning the withd"awal
of tho Cunard line: "It Is n tempest
In a teapot. The talk aliout it Is I
absurd.."

"I leek for a very close race and It

RAILROAD MORTGAGES.
Opinion by Attorney General Con
firms Control of State Pail
road Commissioners.
Albany, June 23. An opinion by
Attorney General Cunneen confirm:
the control of tho state board of rail
road commissioners over tho issue of
mortgages and bonds by railroad cor
Iratlons, and leaves tho ll.iffulo,
Aurora and Hamburg Klectric rail-
road exmpany in a peculiar position.
The company recently placed
mortgage upon Its property aud Issued
Its bonds to meet the same, without
asking consent of the railroad commis
sioners. For this consent they subse
quently applied, and the commissioners
asked the opinion of the attorney gen
eral.
Mr. Cunneen holds that the law re
quires the consent of the rallroid com
missioners before tho mortgaging ot
the property, and that It would be in
consistent for the board to give its
consent after Hie thing to which It
Is to consent Is completed. It Is im
possible, he holds, for tho board to
give Its consent now an of the sme
effect as If the inillrUoii hid b:vn
filed before the bonds were issued.
