The statement published by the 81.
Petersburg Official Messenger on the
condition OF the imperial finances, and
its relation 20 the famine, was tele-
gtRphed here tonight. IL was an au-
th0fliativo declaration aiming 10
minimise the dangers Of the situation.
The statement begins by announcing
that stocks of grain, after the prohibi.
ton OF the export, will DO sufficient for
the population until the next harvest.
AS the people Ia agricultural districts
depend ON the sale OF grain, they will
lind their position embarrassing, and
the government has therefore ass igned

the cash reserve In the
treasury. This reserves amount TO
100, 100000 roubles, which sum Is
sufficient TO meet the redemption Of the
debt for tho current year and all ex-
pendltures and still leave a cash bal.
ance equal TO the needs Of 1892. II Ia
denied that there Ia any likelihood that
the treasury viii be required TO pur
chase gold abroad, unless such course
DO necessltated by the flowing back Of
Russian securities TO Russia. The gold
reserve amounts 10 so, 900, 900 roubles In
the treasury and 1900, 900 roubles IN
the Imperial bank, besides 10000 SO
cured by recently issued provisional
credit notes. These totals do not In
