MNCOI-N, Nov. 12. (Special. )-I)cmo-ertt
of tho stnto house havo sugested V.
J. Hryan for tho party nominee for gov
ernor two years hence. It Is said here
that at an Informal conference of a num
ber of prominent democrats In Douglas
county Saturday night It wns agreed that
although weak ns a presidential candidate
ho would be tho strongest man the party
could put up ns a gubernatorial nominee.
"The vote last Tuesday docs not show
that Ilrynn Is less papular now than ho was
four years ago when ho carried the stato
by an overwhelming mnjorlty," said Henry
Ilium of Omaha, one of the democrats who
ore proposing Hryan for governor. "The
peoplo didn't want to change tho national
administration. In Nebraska Ilrynn Is ust
as strong as ho ever was and If ho Is
nominated for governor ho would sweep
the state. There are only three men In
the stato capable of polling n majority
of tho votes for our party. They aro Ilrynn,
Bmyth nnd Hitchcock and our next candi
date for goverLor will bo one of these men
Mr. Hryan says ho Is going to stny In poli
tics. If the legislature Is republican tho
Bcnatonihlp Is out of tho question, but he
could easily get tho nomination for gov
ernor." Another state house democrat nnd friend
of Illtchccck did not look with so much
favor on tho suggestion of Bryan's name.
Ho snid: "It may bo truo that Hryan Is
as strong ah nny man In the party, but
It Is nevertheless truo that he would bo
weak ns n cnndldntc. If wo put him up
for governor tho national republican party
would center Its forces against him here
In this stnto nnd ho would bo defeated
and defeated bndly. Mr. Hryan Is n young
man and there Is plenty of time left for
him to look fcr political proferment."
Frnl Jewell un nil Hntlninter.
Tho clerks and secretaries employed In
tho governor's ofllco are still nt work under
tho direction of I'rlvuto Secretary Krcd
Jewell In n vain endeavor to llguro out a
majority for William A. I'oyntcr. Mr. Jow
oll has Invented a new method of calculat
ing tho result of an election, and In tho
trial teat It worked satisfactorily to him
by Indicating thnt Mr. I'oynter received
moro votes thnn did his opjocent. Instead
of counting tho voto in nil vountles heard
from ho excludes Douglas nnd ten other
counties which wont strongly republican,
leaving I'oyntcr n few hundred votes ahead.
Ho then concedes that Douglns will cancel
tho majority thus obtained, but Insists thnt
ns several of tho remaining counties gavo
mo fusion nominee n majority two years
Bgo, thoy did tho same this year. Of tho
cloven counties excluded from Mr. Jewell's
list nlno gavo I'oynter a plurality of 131
votes two years ego, but Hayward's nlu
rallty in the other two was many times as
large.
No ono can bo found nt tho stnto houso
outside of tho governor's ofllco who will ad
mit that ho believes I'oynter is elected.
Tho populist stnto committee has closed
Its hend(unrtcrs, ordered out tho tolo
pnones ami slopped tabulating llgures. Ono
deluded populist inquired of one of the
attaches of tho governor's ofllca over tho
telephono If It was safe to wager money
on tho election. Ho said he had read tho
claims of tho Omaha fusion organ and was
about convinced that Dietrich was defeated
Not to' lift On.
wo sum uciievo mat olllclal canvass
will show that I'oynter was elected," was
tho response, "but we would not advlso
you to bet any money on thnt kind of
proposition."
Secretary Jewell has been annoyed by tho
figures published In tho republican news
papers. "I havo lost SGOO on election
through wagers," ho said today, "and I am
now willing to wager $100 moro that my
figures are nenrer correct than those pub
lished In tho newspapers.
"I regret thnt tho papers havo seen fit
to mistake my position," ho continued.
"All thnt I claim or havo claimed is that
tho vote on governor will show that who
ever Is elected will not have n plurality
of over 300 and that tho chances aro In
favor of tho election of I'oyntcr. If tha
peoplo will withhold their decision until
the odlclal voto Is In they will then agree
that my estimate Is nearer correct thnn
that of tho newspapers. I agree that when
tho oftlclal voto Is In I will concede Diet
rich's election If tho returns show that ho
l.ns been elected by ono vote. My con
elusions nro bnscd entirely upon tho of
Ilclnl returns now received by tho secrotnry
of stato, together with those telegraphed
to tho populist stnto committco after tho

ment for ther fiscal year was J56.,240,8u2,
the largest In the history of the country
exceeding those of 1866, tho next high

280,232 over tho preceding year was con'
trlbuted from nil tho general sources, but
chiefly from customs and Internal revo'
nue.
On the sldo of tho expenditures there
wns n not increnso 01 jiii.aos.oss in com
parison with lSt'9, bo that tho deficiency
of JS9,lll,fi60 for that year was converted
Into a surplus of $79,527,060 in 1900. The

and $3,594,708 In treasury notes were re
deemed In gold out of the reserve fuud
of $150,000,000. Kach day the notes so re

Exclusive of the reserve fund tho nvalla
bio cash balance of tho treasury was greater
on Juno 30, 1900, by $24,887,193 than nt the
snmo dato In 1899, but this gain was partly
offset by n decrease of $8,663,273 In ths
next ensuing ciunrter. The cash assets be

30, 1899, $50,327,602 on Juno 30, 1900, and

Surplus Itestnred to Clrenlntlon
As tho receipts of the treasury were
greater than the needs of tho government
measures wero adopted by tho secretary
of 'the treasury for the purpose ofrestorlng
the surplus moneys to tho general clrculn
tlon, these measures Including prepayment
of Interest nnd nn offer to purchase 4 nnd
5 per cent bonds up to $25,000,000, nnd no
tlco thnt tho $25,304,500 then outstanding
of tho 2 per cent loan of 1S91 would bo

tho redemptions under this notlco wore
$23,109,500, leaving' $2,255,000 outstanding
Tho bond purchases under tho call for 4
nnd C per cents nmounted to $19,300,650
with nn additional $2,373,602 for premiums
Tho exchange of 5 per cents, tho old 4
per cents and tho now- 3 per cents for two
per cent consols under tho provisions of
the financial act, has proceeded steadily,
The total amount of tho exchangeable se
ctirlttes outstanding was $839,146,340 and
by Juno 30 $307,125,450, or 36.6 per cent of
them had been converted Into the new
twos. Tho premlumss allowed under tho
provisions of the law amounted to $30,
73.652 nnd In tho transactions $30,404,850
was paid out 01 tno treasury, alter mo
adjustments of Interest nnd somo other
nccounts. Tho saving of Interest effected
by tho operation Is placed at $42,692,771
and the net saving at $8,604,317. On Octo

Total Amount of Money.
The aggregate nmount of money of all
kinds in circulation on October 1, 1900, Is
estimated at $2,113,294,983, an lncrcaso ct
$1S0,810,774 In fifteen months, of which $94,
440,930 was due to tho enlarged use of
gold and gold certificates. Tho Increnso
per cnpltu wuh from $25.31 to $27.10. The
por capita of gold at tho latter date waB
$10,60, which Is greater than that of all
the currency in 1862, while tho total of gold
Is greater thun all tho circulation nt any
time previous to July, 1S79,
On October 1, 39.24 per cent of the total
circulation was in gold nnd gold certlll
cntcs, 26.'i5 In silver dollnrs, silver cer
tificates and treasury notes, 15.30 per cent
In United States notes anil 15.11 por cent
In national bnnk notes. It Is a significant
comparison that on Juno 30, 1890, the per
contngo of United States notes was 22.58,
Twa years earlier It was ns high as 32.07.
While tho volumo of United States notca
trcasuty notes and silver certificates is
limited by stntutory provisions, tho stock
of gold Is constantly growing. Tho metal
lie stock of money Is estimated for Oc
tober 1, 1900, at $1.059.2SS,820 In gold, $566.
355.367 In silver dollars and bullion and
$S6,000,748 in fractional silver coin, an ag
gregato of $1,711,644,935.
StrriiKt hcultiK of Cold Standard
The act of March 14 strengthened tho
Biinranteo for tho maintenance of tho gold
standard, both In providing for Hi" -
ting apart of a reserve fund and In adding
ouo-hnlf to the JltO.OOO.OUU, whn.li in ,.u
prnctlco of tho department was formerly
maintained without specific statutory re
quirement. The ratio of tho reserve to the
fixed volume of United States notes was
raised from 28.85 to 43,27 per cent. While
the ratio of tho new reserve to tho sum of
both classes of legal tender notes was
originally only 34 per cent, tho gradual re
tirement of the $86,770,000 of treasury notes
outstanding at tho passage of the act
will reduco tho demands on the fund to
that extent.
Tho Inflow of gold in consequence of
material conditions, prominent among
which Is a favorablo trado balanco averag
ing $363,2S3,C09 In the last three years, will
also co-operate with the statute.
I'nper Currency .eivly IsNiieil,
Tho amount of paper currency stamped
with tho seal of tho department and pro-
pared for Issue during the year ended with
September, 1900, was $523,192,000, against
$362,412,000 In tho year procedlng. Tho
redemption of worn material was $303,
119,821 In the later period and $255,027,
P8Q in tho earlier. The Increasing demand
for notes of small denomination has been
so heavy and so fully met by tho dupart
ment that taking Into account tho gold
coin, only $426,045,022 ot the estimated total
Mrcllll ot 2,113,!94.9S3. on October
was 0 denominations larger thnn S20.
The operations of the trcrisury nnd Us
branches arc conducted In Increasing ratio
' "'; "eeli. of ih. ij!ljj.r in
tlint roln having Increased J64I.OS0.001 nnd
the disbursements $560,642,128 ocr 1S99.
There Is nn Increase In the circulation of
standard sliver dollars in the autumn of
each year, followed by their return to the
treasury a few months latrr. This Is an
Incident to tho movement of the crops and
to the free delivery by tho treasury of
such coins. The nmount In circulation on
November 1 wns $73,479,469,
Tho provision was made by congress for
the Increnso of the subsidiary coinage to
$100,000,000 havo been a great convenience
and the department, through the mint, has
been ablo to supply nil demands for these
coins. The nmount of them In circulation,
which In January, 1890, wns only $51,202,
140, rose by October 1, 1900, to $79,432,191.
The distribution of minor coins from the
offices of the trensury and mint during the
fiscal year amounted to $3,174,971, against
$1,926,983 tho year before.
AlNtniice In MovIiik Crop.
The treasury each year Is called upon
to furnUh small denominations of paper
currency for uso In tho movement of the
crops. The amount of theeo exchanges at
the BtibtrcaEurlcB In New Orleans, St. I.ouls
nnd Chicago up to November 1 this year.
was $8,436,000, against $3,970,000 In 1839.
Tho act of April 12, 1900, provides for tho
substitution of United States coins for the
Spanish coins of Porto Hlco, estimated by
experts at $5,920,000 pesos, nt the rate of
sixty cents for each peso. Tho exchange
im begun on May 1, when the provision
went Into effect, nnd by August 20. th-i sum
of $5,470,227 pesos had been received nnd
paid for In $3,282,140 of Amcilcun money.
Counterfeit Detected nnil l)etro) eit.
During tho fiscal year there were de
tected nnd destroyed nt tho ofllces of the
treasury $11,146 In counterfeit silver cer
tificates, coins and notes, 3,277 five cent
ploces, nnd 121,652 ono cent plece3, Cotn
porlcon with tho previous year shows no
significant changes, excepting In tho num
ber of spurlos minor coins In circulation,
which nro rnpldly on tho increase. Counter
feit gold coins art rare, only thirteen hav
ing been presented at the treasury during
the year. The operations under tho new
financial law lnvovlcd great changes in tho
bonds held by the treasurer In trust for
national banks to secure circulating notes
and public deposits. Tho total of these
bonds In tho treasurer's hands Increased
during the year from $229,088,110 to $284,
378,040. Uouds of tho stato of Arkansas,
for $160,000, formerly belonging to tho In-
dlnn trust fund, havo been paid.
Tho national bank notes presented for re
demptlon during tho year amounted to
$96,982,607, or 37.25 per cent of tho average
volumo outstanding, and Increase of $6,144

WASHINGTON, Nov. 12. Germany Is
now passing through a period of reflection,
Bclt-cxnmlnntlon and a somewhat vague
ncertalnty as to her future, according to
United States Consul Ucnernl Mason at
rnnkfort, who has transmitted to the
Suite department n comprehensive review
the conditions which hnvo beon pro
ductive of a threatening crisis In many
brunches of German Industry.
"In many branches of trado and manu-
fncturo the limit of profltnble production
Beems to have been renched," says General
Mason, "nnd this, together with tho scar
city nnd high rate of money Incident to
liberal Investments In nil sorts of Improve
ments nnd new enterprises, has brought on
relapse which has recently cnused a gen
eral decline In most Industrial securities."
'Thoughtful Germans," nays Mr. Mason,
'are nt a loss to determine whether the
distressing condition of textile, hardware
nnd other branches of trado Is the Inevita
ble reaction following a protracted period
of Intense nctlvlty or whether n scrlom
crisis In business Industries actually Is nt
hand. The temporary stoppage of exports
o South Africa nnd to China Is felt to be
responsible In large measure for present
conditions."
'Aside from the local conditions which
exist In Germany," says tho consul gen
eral, "by far tho tnott Important and
ominous element In tho problem Is the new
nnd enlarged rolo which has been assumed
by tho United States ns a source of supply
of coal and metals. The first reports that
American coal has found a market in
Frnnce nnd Italy, nnd had even been tested
successfully for gns-maklng purposes In
London, were recalled hero with Incredulity
amounting to resentment. While dealers
nnd certain consumers hailed the prospect
of a new source of supply from beyond the
Atlantic with delight, the general sentl
ment of tho press was distinctly hostt'o
and Incredulous,"
Con. ul General Mason recounts tho In
cldents that gradually awakened Germany
to tho unquestioned superiority ot Amerl
can coal. A test of coal on the Ilavnrlnn
stnto railway proved It superior to the
best of native coal, tho great transatlantic
German steamship lines were found to be
using the Amerlcnn article exclusively nnd
tho big DcutBchlnnd before setting out to
hreak the speed record of the sea filed up
her coal bunkers ut New York.
'There wns no arguing those facts," says
Mr. Mason, "and when a short tlmo ngo
It was announced thut West Virginia gaB
coal hnd been tested at Hamburg nnd found
superior to the Cardiff standard, tho con
elusion became unavoidable that only
scarcity of tonnago and exorbitant freight
stand between tho coal famine prices In
Germany and the cxhaustlcss deposits of
the United States."
Something ot tho present Industrial dc
prcsslon Is attributed to uncertainty as to
whnt legislation will bo enacted In tho
Reichstag on tho tuturo financial policy of
tho empire. A number of reciprocal com
mercial treaties will cxplro In 1902, and as
their effect has been powerfully to pro
mote Germany's Industries nnd her exports,
their rc-cnactmcnt or rejection Is awaited
with deep Interest.
