FOREIGN MISCELLANY.

The German Reichstag Declines to Favor q
Reassembling of the Monetary Conference.
BERLIN, March 4.--The Reichstag to-day, in
discussing the budget, rejected Won Kardrotf's
motion in favor of reassembling the monetary
conference. The Federal Commissioner explained
the fallacy of the pessimist statements regarding
gold currency in Germany. The Imperial Bank,
he said, of recent years had been free from
anxiety concerning means of retaining gold in
Germany, or for procuring fresh supplies. The
fears that special protective measures would be
necessary to retain German gold in the country
were totally unfounded.
