NEW YORK.

New YORK, Jan. There was
no excitement when business opened
at the sub-Treasury this morning.
Treasurer Hillhouse was prepared
to meet a probable rush for gold,
but the demand was very light,
while in some instances greenbacks
were preferred. The first demand
was for $210, but not another dol
lar in gold was paid out for half
hour. Within that time there were
a half dozen applicants for sums
less than $50, but as no payments
are made under that amount, they
were refused. National bank bills
were also offered, but were not
taken, only legal tenders being ex-
changeable.
In an interview with represent,
ative of the Associated Press to-
day, Gen. HIllhouse, United States
Sub-Treasurer, stated that resump-
ton, so far as the working of the
head-office was concerned, had been
attended by a most gratifying sue
cess, and that there appeared to be
no demand tor coin, the payments
thereof in exchange for paper being
very insignificant. Up to 2 o'clock
the Sub Treasury had received over
$500,O00 in gold. in exchange for
which was issued legal tenders and
certificates of deposit; while on the
other hand it was estimated that the
disbursement of coin for the day
would not amount to over 1925, 900.
The Chamber of Commerce to-
day adopted the resolutions felicitat-
ing the community upon resump-
ton, congratulating Secretary Sher
man upon the success of his policy
recognizing the action of the city
banks in cooperating with the
Treasury and thanking Congress
for the establishment of the Ma
tional Banking Law.
A resolution was also adopted
calling upon Congress to avert the
danger attending the adoption of
silver as o measure of values by
amending the existing law so as to
further the limit of coinage of sill
yer dollars, and its use as legal
tender.
Copies of these resolutions were
ordered to be sent to the Senate

GREAT BRITAIN.

LONDON, Jan. 1.-Great excite
ment has been produced in the en-
gineering trade regarding the reso>
luton of the London Iron Trades
Employers Association to increase
the number of working hours. The
Employers Association will meet
Tuesday next to arrange the pre-
liminaries for the resumption of
ffty-seven and a-half hours as a
weekly quota of labor. District
meetings of the operatives and en-
gineers have been arranged to pro-
nounce the opinion of the work
men on the question of resistance.
Outside of the Trades Union stand
there are very large number of
non society men, and it appears
from what transpired yesterday at
the informal meetings of the
workmen, that the following
precedent, made in 1871,
when the non -Unionists for the
most part acted with Unionists
the former will adopt the policy of
resistance. It is stated that the de-
cision of the employers will depend
to some extent on the result of the
arbitration on the proposed reduc-
ton of 5 per cent. in the wages of
iron workers, which has been com
menced at Darlington. The award of
the arbitrators is expected to be re-
ceived by the end of the present week.
So that the Iron Trade Employers S
Association will have decision
before their conference next Tues
day. The amalgamated society of
Engineers, according to the last
annual report, has quarter of a
million pounds sterling on hand. It
is recognized as a Union, which
numerically and financially leads
other trades unions of the Kingdom.
The number of business failures
officially announced in the Kingdom
of Great Britain and Ireland du-
ring the year 1878, is 15,O59, of
which 2,643 were in financial and
wholesale and manufacturing
branches of trade; 12.416 in retail
trades, professional pursuits, builds
ers, publicans, working classes, &c.,

Ten thousand dollars was stolen

been duly accounted for.
