Finance Committee has agreed to dispose
of the question OF resumption of specie

the main feature Of which will provide
that all United States legal tender notes

claimed, establish practical resumption
BY bringing United States notes to par
with gold.

Russia Preparing 10 Make COnces-
GiOnR.

RUSSIA preparing 10 hdAe Noh'Ss-
SiOns.
LONDON, April u The tone of the
comments on the political crisis is much
more hopeful. The conviction Is that
Russia is preparing to accept Germsny's
help to get out OF the present dead lock
by such concessions as will secure the
meeting OF the Congress.
At Vienna Prince Gortschskofs reply
created an impression of Russia's will.
ingness to find an acceptable method for
reopening negotiations. This moderate
spirit is believed to be in q great measure
que TO the altered tone CT the comments OF
the German, french and Italian press
and politicians concerning the treaty OF
San Stefsno, which point TO the proba-
bility Of Russia, instead Of England, be.
ing isolated in case of rupture.
ST. PETERSBURG, April l2.-The
Agence Russo says that the Russian gov
ernment, by discussing, in its answer to
Lord Salisbury, the objections raised by
him on every point Of the treaty, has
practically established the discussion OF
the whole treaty, and thus shown how
small foundation the British objections
had. If the congress meets there will be
no objections to 4 iull discussion, but the
submission OF the treaty implies an act
which no independent power, and Eng
land least OF all, would admit.
ST. PETERSBURG, April l2,-The Jour
nal de 81. Petersburg reviewing the opin-
ions of the foreign press upon Gor.scha-
kof reply concludes as follows: The
real desire of Russis to bring about Il
peaceful solution of the existing difficult
ties meets with universal recognition.
The British government must now aban-
don its purely negative attitude, either
by inviting the powers to assemble tor
common negotiations or by proposing
solutions which the British cabinet may
wish to substitute for the treaty OF San
Stetano. Should the powers find COM
