Gould and His Railroads.
NEW York, April 22.-Jay Gould being
questioned by q reporter as to the rumors
that he has been aiding the bears, said:
No bears in their raids have had any
assistance from me; on the contrary, 1
have been buying. I had not done much
until the last day or two on account OF my
trip south. The Trunk line troubles are
in q fair way of being adjusted. Fink told
me last night that east-bound rates were
firm, and that large business is being done.
They are making progress in the east
bound pools. He expects to get q meeting
next week and adjust all that agitation in
Congress about tine Postal Telegraph Com
pany. This has affected Western Union,
but it has not gone down more than any
other stock. The condition of that prop
erty is improving and its business is in
creasing, and, we have demonstrated that,
on the low rates made to meet competi-
ton. The recent dec ease in Union Psci-
fc earnings was due to the bad Winter,
but all business is simply held back. 1t
will have to come forward finally. The
earnings of the Missouri Pacific show a
steady increase every week. l have not
sold q share Of Missouri Pacific nor one of
Western Union since I was elected
Director.
House Proceedings.
WASHINGTON, April 22.-House-In &C
cordance with the resolution adopted
yesterday, the House met at IL o'clock.
Dingley asked for unanimous consent for
the present consideration of the bill au-
thorizing the Secretary Of the Treasury
by the National Banking Association for
the retirement of their circulation. There
was, he said, no more important measure
thar this which related to the currency Of
the country that could probably be pre-
sented to Congress. IL was recommended
by the Secretary Of the Treasury, and had
the unanimous approval Of the Banking
and Currency Committee. Under the ex-
piring law the national banks, in with
drawing their bonds and going into liqui-
dalton, are obliged to deposit in the Treas
ury the lawful money and currency that
was contracted to that extent, and wipe
out the whole system suggested.
Weller-I object.
Dingley hoped the objection would be
withdrawn, because the bill was necessary
to prevent contraction Of the currency.
The rate was $500, 600 a month.
Weller remarked that nothing which
could, he said, would induce him to with
draw his objection, and 30 the consent
was not granted.
On motion Of Budd, a resolution was

the consideration OF the bill amending
the Chinese Immigration Act.
Outrageous Mexicanos.
GALVESTON, April pa News Laredo
special says: American capital has no safe
guard in Mexico at present. But recently
the newsboys on the Mexican National
Railway running out Of Laredo into Mexico
| were put off the train with their American
publications because Of an article in o
paper that did not suit the powers that be.
The costly and magnificent club and hotel
buildings occupied by the construction
companies Of Jay Gould's extension of the
International Railroad into Mexico have
been seized and appropriated by the civil
authorities of New Laredo because of some
alleged failure to comply with the General
Government. Conductor King, on the
| Mexican National Railroad between Laredo
and Monterey, yesterday, on the trip to the
latter point, put off the train an American
who was travelling without a ticket or pass.
On his return to New Laredo he was ar
rested and placed in jail, and to this time
has not secured his release.

New YORK, April 22.-The Tribune says:
The anti-Arthur victory in New York is
complete and conclusive. OF "a delegates,
sc have been chosen, "a being for Arthur
and AZ against him. The Second District
delegates are yet to be chosen. They will
probably be for Arthur, but the State Con-
vention is absolutely in the hands of his
opponents. so that IL they choose to exer-
else their full power, he cannot get any Of
the four delegates-at-large. The utmost
strength, therefore, that he can be sure Of
is rs in the delegation Of "a from his own
State.
The New York Field Left to Flower.
ALBANY, N. Y, April "A party Of
leading Democrats and friends of Tilden,
who left Greystone to-day. say that under
no circumstances will he be a candidate

stances will he accept if nominated. They
