GRAHAM, , Of Connoqueneesing t»p Gold Imports. Nearly $15,000,000 of gold is now on its way to this country and it is not improb able that twice this sum will cross the ocean diirinir the current month. These gold nnyfflfts »u"uiu mm uuiiu i .■ i ■ ed in character and cannot be classed in effect with the imports likely to come later when the balance of merchandise exports and imports is heavily in favor of this country. Gold is imported under three different conditions. First when a monetary strin gency raises the rate for "money. The sudden destruction of credit raises a de mand for gold. This is the reason gold is always imported by any country immedi atsly after a panic. The import of gold by the BankofEngtend from the Bank of France after the Baring panic was of thie character and the imports now are due to this cause. This is practically indicated by the fact that these imports are on collateral jnst as was the transfer of gold from Paris to Lon don three YEARS ago. With merchandise exports falling and exports rising gold is, however, likely before long to be import ed in regular exchange transactions. In addition, when Congress suspends silver purchases, the third cause for gold imports — in exchange for the exports for shares and bonds — is likely to set in. Withoat venturing on any predictions, there is therefore a strong probability that gold imports will continue for some time and extend to larger proportions than for several years. — Philadelphia Press. A MERE suggestion of a tariff for revenue only policy frightens the business world in to paralysis. The people who stubbornly cling to a theory which reads well in print, in spite of all the severe lesons of experi ence, would rather suffer the worst priva tions than admit that their judgement was at fault. It is a pecularity of this thing obstinacy, that it is ever the most positive when most in wrong. As was wittily re marked by somebody long ago, a stubborn man does not realy hold any opinions —THA opinions hold him. Comments on the Message. (Pittsburg Commercial Gazette.) In the main President Cleveland's mes sage to Congress is clear, sound and praise worthy. He tells the story of financial trouble in a simple, straightforward man ner, and Bis recommendation for the im mediate unconditional repeal ot the pur chase clause of the Sherman act will meet the approval of the best people, and a ma jority of all the people, North, East, South and West. The President clearly rocognizes the disturbance incident to uncertainty regard - ing the tariff, referring to "evils apprehend ed," and also in the announcement of his abandonment of the intention to call a special session in September to consider the tariff and substituting an earlier ses sion to act on the Bilver law. lie is un compromising—unwisely so — in his declar ation for tariff revision in the future. That is the weak point in an otherwise strong message, even though the tariff re vision is relegated specifically to the in definite future. The threatening tariff changes are at the bottom of tho present troubles, and if they are insisted upon in conformity with the declarations of the Democratic platform only temporary and partial relief will come from the repeal of the Sherman law. This law, as the presi dent says, is "one of the evils" in the sit uation. The attitude of his party and him self toward the tariff is another and great er one. (Pittsburg Dispatch.) The message is in its entirety a demon stration of the well known fact that the threat of silver payments through the con tinuance of silver purchases was the origin of the distrust that has disturbed credit throughout the length and breadth of tho land. To a certain extent it is threshing old straw; but the point is so pivotal of the entire situation and constitutes so control ling a situation in onr coming legislation that it was not well that it should be made in a state paper, but it was absolutely es sential. The logic of tho message showing first, the necessary construction of the act: second, its effect on the gold payments; third, its result in arousing distrust for the future, and last, the popular interest in putting tho monetary question on a settled and firm foundation, is simple, clear and unanswerable. It brings the issue up to the place where the first step can bo made, in a shape from which there can bo no sin cere or reasonable dissent. Pittsburg Times. As was expected, Mr. Cleveland's mess age deals almost, exclusively with the silver question. It is only just to say that he presents the situation as it exists, and dis cusses it clearly and forcibly. He is fairer too, than his party and its press, for, while placing tbe responsibility for tho present difficulties upon tbe operations of the Sher man act, he admits that "it may be con sidered a truce aftor a long struggle be tween the advocates of free silver coinage and those intending to be more conserva tive." In this latter position ho accords with the Republican party, aud contradicts his own. Tho prompt repeal of the purchasing clause of the Sherman act is urgently rec ommended, together with other legislative action that "may put beyond all doubt or mistake the intention and ability of the Government to fulfill its pecuniary obliga tions in money universally recognized by all civilized countries," It is to be regret ted that immediately after tbe last word in the sentence quoted aboye, Mr. Cleveland stops short and signs his name. The rec ommendations embodied therein will be heartily endorsed by all who lavor and ad here to a sound financial policy, but they will wish that Mr. Cleveland had indicated his views, and tho views of his party, as to what legislation w ill bring about so desir able and necessary u result, i'or, after the repeal of tho Sherman act pnrchaxing clause, what ? If Mr. Cleveland does not know or knows and does r.ot tell, what bopo of a satisfactory answer from the dis cordant representatives of his party to wH nho has thus committed the great Meeting of Congress. For the twelfth time in the history ot the United States its Congress met in "extra ordinary session" last Monday. , & The liouse organized with Crisp* k iu the ChTirTKerr of Penn'a as ;Clerk, Snow of Illinois "as Sergeant at- Anti si - " Hurt of Tennessee as Doorkeeper; Dalton of Indi anna as Postmaster, and Hadaway of Maryland as Chaplain.

The Senate was !n session but half an hour. Both houses of Congress reassembled at noon Tuesday, and after the usual prelim inaries the President s message was pre sented and read as follows: THE MKSSAOE. The existence of an alarming and extra ordinary business situation involving the welfare and prosperty of all our people has j constrained mo to call together in extra session the people's representatives in Con gress, to the end that through a .wise and patriotic exercise of the legislative duty with which they solely are charged present evils may be mitigated and dangers threat ening the future may be averted. Our unfortunate financial plight is not the result of untoward events nor of condi tions related to our natural resources, nor is.it any of the afflictions which frequently check national growth and pros perity. With plenteous crops,with abun dAnt promise of remunerative production to safe investment and with satisfactory assurance to business enterprise, suddealy financial distrust and fear have sprang up on every side. Numerous money institu tions have suspended because abundant as sets were not immediately available to meet the demands of frightened depositors. Surviving corporations and individuals are content to keep in hand tho money they are usual anxious to loan and those engag ed in legitmate business are surprised to find that the securities they offer for loans, though heretofore satisfactory, are no long, er accepted. Yalues supposed to be fixed are fast becoming conjectural and losses and failures have invaded every branch of business. I believe these things are prin cipally chargeable to congressional legisla tion touching the purchase and coinage of silver by the general government. The legislation is embodied in a statute passed on the 14th day of Jnly, 1890, which was tho culmination of much agitation on the subject involved, and which may be considered a truce after a long struggle be tween the advocates of free silver coinage and those intending to bo more conserva tive. Undoubtedly monthly purchases by the Government 4,500,000 ounces of silver en forced under the statute were regarded by those interested in silver production as a certain gaaranty of its increase in price. The result, however, has been ontirely dif ferent, far immediately following a spas modic and slight rise the price of silver be gan to fall after tho passage of tho act and has since reached the lowest point eyer known. The disappointing result has led to renewed aud persistent effort in the di rection of free silver coinage. Meanwhile not only tho evil effects of tho operation of the present law constantly accumulating, but the ro*ult to which its execution must inevitable lead is becoming palpable to all who give least heed to fi nancial subject*. This law providos that in payment for tho 4,500,000 ounces of silver bullion which the secretary ot the treasury is command ed to purchase monthly, there shall be is sued treasury notes redeemable on demand in gold or silver coin, at tho discretion of the secretary of the treasury, and that said notes may not be reissued. It is, however, declared in the act to be "the established policy of tho United States to maintain the two metals on a parity with each other upon the present legal ratio or such ratio as may be provided by law." This declaration so controls tho action of the secretary of tne treasury as to pre vent his exercising this discretion nomi nally vested in him, if by such actiou the parity between gold and silver may be dis rurbed. Manifestly a refusal by the eecre to pay tho treasury notes in gold, if de manded, would necessarily result in their discredit and depreciation as obligations payable only in silver, and would destroy the parity between the two metals by es tablishing a discrimination in favor of gold. Up to the 15th day of July, 1893, theso notes had been issued on payment of silver bullion purchases to the amout ol $147- 000,000. While all but a very small quan tity of this bullion remains uncoiued and without usefulness in the treasury, many of the notes given "in its purchases havo been paid in gold. This illustrated by the statement that between May Ist, 1892, and July 15, 1893, the notes of this kind issued in payment for silver bullion amounted to a little more than $54,000,000 and that dur ing the same period $49,000,000 were piid to the treasury in gold for the redemption of snch notes. The policy necessarily adopted ofjpaying the notes in gold has not spared the gold reserve $100,000,000 long ago set aside by the government for the redemptian of oth er notes, for this fund has already been subjected to the payment of now obliga tions amounting to about $150,000,000 on account of silver purchases and has as a consequence for the first time since its croation been encroached upon. We havo thus made the depletion of our gold easy and have tempted other and more appre ciative nations to add it to their stock. That the opportunity we ha\ fered his not been neglected, is shown by the large amounts of gold which have been recently drawn lrom our treasury and exported to increase financial strength of foreign na tions. The excess of exports of gold over its imports for the year ending June 30, 2893, amounted to more than $87,500,000. Between the Ist day of July, 1890, and 15th day of July, 1893, the gold coin and and bullion in our treasury decreased more than $132,000,000, while during the samo period the silver coin and bullion in the treasury increased more than $247,000,- 000. Unless government bonds aro to bo constantly issued and sold to replenish out exhausted gold, ouly to be again exhaust ed, it is apparant that the operation of the silver purchase law now in lorcc leads in the direction of the entire substitution of silver for the gold in the government treas ury aud that this must be followed by pay ment of all government obligations in de preciated silver. At this stage gold and silver must part company, and the government must fail iu its established pnlicy to maintain the two metals on a parity with each other. Given over to tho exclusive use of a currency greatly depreciated, according to standard of the commercial world, wc could no longe.r claim a place among the nations of tho first class, nor could our government claim a performance of its obligation, so far as such an obligation has been imposed upou it, to provide for tbe use of the poo pie tho best and safest money. If, as many of its friends claim, silver ought to occupy a larger place in our currency and tho gen eral currency of tho world through general international co-operation and agreement, it is is obvious that tbe United States will not be in a position to gain a hearing in favor of such an arrangement so long as we are willing to continue our attempt to accomplish the ri salt tingle banded. The knnwledgo in buoiness circles among our own peoplo that onr government cannot make its fiat equivalent to intrinsic value, nor keep inferior money on a parity with superior money bv it# o«u independent ef forts, has resulted in such a lack of confi dence at home in the stability of cdrrency value that capital refu-es it* aid to new enterprises while millions are actually withdrawn from the channels of trade and commerce to become idle and unproduc tive in the hands of timid owners. For eign investors equally alert, not only de clino-to purchase American securities bnt make haste to sacrifice those which they already have. It does not meet the situa tion to say that apprehension in regard to the future of our linances is groundless and that there is no reason ior lack of confi dence in the purpose or power of the gov ernment in the premises. The very exis tence of this apprehension and lack of con fidence, however caused, is a menace which ought not for a moment to< be dis regarded. Possibly if the undertaking we have in hand were the maintenance of a specific known quantity of silver at a par ity with gold. our ability to do so might be estimated and ganged, and perhaps in view of onr unparalled growth and res ources, might bo favorably passed upon. But when onr avowed endeavor is to main tain such parity in regard to an amount of silver increasing at the rate of fifty mil lions of dollars year, with no fixed termi nation to such increa e, it can hardly be *aid that, a problem is presented whose sol ution is free from doubt. The people of the United States are en titled to a sound and stable currency and to money recognized as such on every ex change and in every market of the world. Their government has no right to injure them by financial experiments opposed to the policy and practice of other civilized States, nor is it justified in permitting an exaggerated and unreasonable reliance on our national strength and abilit3* to jeop ardize the soundness of the peoples xnon " This matter rises above the plane of par ty politics. It vitally concerns every bus iness and calling and enters every honse • hold in the land. There is one important i aspect ot the subject which especially should never be overlooked. At times like the present, when the evils of unsound finance threaten us, the speculator m *y anticipate a harvest gathered from the the capitalist may protect him tell by Hoarding (ir uiaj vnm lind profit in the fluctuations of valuer, bat the wege earner—the first to be injur ed by a depreciated currency and the last to see the benefit of its correction—is prac tically defenseless He relies for work upon the venturer of confidant and con tented capital. This failing him his condi tion is without alleviation lor he can neith er prev on the misfortunes of others, nor hoard his labor. One of our greatest statesmen our country has known, speak ing more than fifty years ago when a de ranceinent of the currency had caused commercial distress, said: "The very man ef all others who has the deepest interest in a sound currency and who suffers most by mischeivious legislation in money ters is tie man who earns his daily bread by his daily|toil." These words are as pertinent now aj on the day they were uttered, and ought to impressively remind us that a failure in the discharge of our duty at this time must especiallv injure our countrymen who labor at.d who, "because oftheir number and condi tion, are entitled to the most watchful care of their government. It is of utmost importance that such re lief as Congress can afTord in the existing situation be afforded at once. The maxim, "He gives twice who gives quickly, is di rectly applicable. It may be true that the embarrassments from which business of the country is suffering arise as much from evils apprehended as from those actually existing. We may hope too, that calm counsels will prevail and that neither the capitalists nor the wage earners will give way to unreasoning panic and sacrifice their property or their interests under tho influence of exaggerated fears. Neverthe less, every day's delay in removing one of tho plain and principle causes of the pres ent state of things enlarges tho mischief already done and increases the responsibil ity of the government for its existence. Whatever elso the people have a right to expect from Congress, they may certainly demand that legislation condemned by the three yearn disastrous experience shall be removed from the statute books an soon as their representatives can legitimately deal with it. It was my purpose to summon Conpres* in special-e?sion eti.y in the com ing September that we might enter prompt ly upon the work of tariff reform, which tho truo interests of the country clearly de mand, which so large a majority ol the people as shown by their suffrages desire and expect, and to the accomplishment of which every effort of the present adminis tration is pledged. But while tariff reform has lost nothing of its immediate and per manent importance, and must in the near future engage the attention of Congress, it ha.s seemed to me that the financial condi tion of the country should at once and be fore all other subjects, bo considered by your honorable body. I earnestly recommend the prompt re peal of the provisions of the act passed July 14, 1890, authorizing the purchase of silver bullion and that other legislative ac tion may put beyond all doubt or mistake the intention and the ability of the govern ment to fulfill its pecuniary obligations in money universally recognized bv all civi lized countries. GROVER CLEVELAND. Aftor the reading of the message bills were introduced in both houses to repeal the section of the Sherman law referred to, and also one in the Senate favoring free coinage, which brought about an acrimo nious debate; and both houses adjourned till next day. The Water We are Compelled to Drink. [Com municated.] Through your paper I wish to call the attention of our Town Council, as well as our Health Committee,to what every think ing citizen considers ot vastly more impor tance than shoveling up piles of dirt on our Streets and. as a rule being left there unless private individuals see lit to remove them at their own exponse. The water the people of Butler are com pelled to drink is really unlit for animals to drink, to say nothing about the people. Must this state of things continue; will some member of our Town Council please explain to the people and citizens of But ler why the company that furnishes water to the borough is not compelled to furnish us with pure, filtered water? The rate we are compelled to pay is, to say the least, an outrageous price; but this I presume we must submit to. But can this Water Co. compel us to drink the impure, muddy and foul smelling water that they are furnish ing to us? 1 think that if the proper ones who have been elected by the people to look after what would be the interest and health of the citizens of the borough would take the matter in hands and act prompt ly, this Water Co. wonld be compelled to con.-truct and maintain a proper filter, large enough to filter every gallon of wa ter furnished the borough, and this ought to bo done at once, or at least proceedings commenced that will compel the Water Co to give us pure, filtered water without del ly. As it now is the odor arising from tlm water is, to nay the least, disgusting; while the taste is anything but pleasant, and the use of it must result in much sick l.eas 1 have been informed that the at tention of members of our Council has been called to this matter several times, but they seem indifl'ereut to any demands made as against the Water Co. Will some member of our Council please explain to the citizens of Butler why we aro compelled to drink and use this muddy and foul smelling water furnished us by the Water Co. It is an outrage, and there should bo a way to have this imposition on the people stopped, and without any de lay or red tape about it. The people have been imposed on long enough by this Water Co. What wo want is pure filtered water and for this we aro willing to submit to rates that are reasonable. There is not another town in the State that is compell ed to ,-übmit to the rates we do hero in Kutlor, and uso such foul and impure wa ter as wo aro furnished by our Water Co. CITIZKN.

The following account of a battle tought i 1 between tho natives of Samoa was sent j from Apia. Malietoa's army consisted of abont 1,000 fighting men. armed with rifles, axes and long knives. This army with martial mu sic, consisting of whistles, cornets, horns and drums, started on the morning of July 8 tiward the seat of war. Malietoa's army was far more powerful than Mataafa s, hay ing plenty of arms and ammunition and niaiiv more warriors. Malietoa also had the advantage in securing the aid of tribes which Mataafa had counted upon to back him. Although Mataafa had been disap pointed in not securing allies, he would not surrender. When the attack came, MataalVs forces being short of ammunition retreated. Ma taafa, seeing no hope of success, and hav ing lost his nephew, who was killed and decapitated, ordered 19 boats to lie off Mu lund. Malietoa's residence and stronghold, for the purpose of drawing Malietoa s at tention, while in the meantime, darkness setting m, he lowered his ensign, cut down his flagpole and set fire to Male. This town was tormerly the King's residence and was beautifully laid ont in Samoan style. The houses were well built, but rather than have the town fall_ into the King's hands, Mataafa preferred to see it go up in smoke. Mataafa's strategy with the boats being successful in keeping the enemy off, he departed with his followers for the island of Savai, another of tho Sa moan group. That afternoon the conquer ors, Malietoa's warriors, returned to Apia with the spoils of victory. These spoils consisted of the bleoding heads of human beings. Each man who had the luck to cm cm an Enemy marenva miuugu rfcr « 7 streets of Apia with it. They walked up the street yelling like fiends, with eyes starting from their sock ets with excitement and throwing the sev ered heads about like baseballs, blood drip ping all over the bearers. Many heads • were brought in this manner, and after be ing exhibited about the town were presen ted to Malsetoa as tropies of war. The King graciously recoived them, and they were then thrown on a pile on tho ground. Mataafa lost 16 killed and 17 wounded. Malietoa's loss was 4 killed and 12 wound ed. Malietoa's excited fiends marched to and fro through the town, clearing every body out of the way. The white people took reiuge on the verandas of houses, while the warriors held the streets. The whites wore at the mercy of the excited natives, who were crazed with victory and blood, and if there had been any clash would probably have been massacred. Ma taafa was not received cordially by the tribesmen of Savai, and ho accordingly proceeded to Manono, where he erected fortifications and made preparations for a final stand, but the three powers, (Eng land, Germany and America,) interfered, and Mataafa and his chiefs, were forced to board an English vessel, while Malietoa and his men were required to return to their homes. APPREHKXSIOS about the tariff undoubt edly has something to do with the present business depression. Manufacturers hesitate to take, and merchants are slow to make, contracts. Prices may drop, or they may advance, according to what happens. Con sequently little is being done. The cur rency of the country,which is to the nation what tho liver is to the human system, is outofgear. It needs a csthartic—some thing to make it more activo. Some phys icians aro prescribing silver, and others gold, pills. There are others again who think that the faith cure would prove ef fective in this instance, a lack of confi dence being the trouble.
