Day viii Make Good Showing.
Pension Money Getting to the Banks.
Large Amounts of Currency Re-
ceiyed-The President of a
Bank Speaks Hopefully.
Situation Much Easier.

Special to the Gazette
New YORK, June l2.-At the sub-treas-
my this afternoon it was said no gold had
been ordered for export tomorrow. II is
believed that the export of gold has been
stayed, at least for the present, and that
soon some will be received back from
Europe. A well-known bank presi-
dent said TO reporter of THE
GAZETTE to-day: The situation in Wall
stree now is much easier. Gold shipments
are evidently at an end. There has been a
large movement of money TO this center
from the West this week and this has liter
ally flooded this town with currency. About
81. 100000, mostly currency, has been sent
to Boston this week, where there was de-
mand for ii. Some of this money is coming
back, however, to-day from Boston. The
bank statement tomorrow should show
decided improvement, and there will,
no doubt, be an increase in
deposits and reserve. There is little or no
business doing on the stock exchange. but
everybody feels a great deal easier. More
gold has no doubt been sent to Europe than
was actually needed, but [ do not think any
undue obstacles Will be put in the way of
our getting some of it back. II will simply
depend on the ability of foreign bankersS in
this country to handle exchange. If pressure
becomes too great for them some of the
iapge national banks will no doubt. help in
bringing gold back as was done during
the panic last November If Europe could
not have got gold from this country there
would have been panic there and the
effect here would have been very diSas-
trous. Europe would have had to sacrifice
millions of dollars of our securities
which are now held abroad for
investments. 1t was therefore
very fortunate for this country as well as
Europe that we were able to supply the. de-
mand for gold. 1t is gratifying proof of
the financial stability of this country that
we did so without any serious loss or any

The Ways of ROYALTY.

LONDON, June 12-The fact that in his
examination in the Cumming case, the
Prince of Wales was not asked whether he
divulged the secret agreement, while all
the other parties to the affair were ques-
toned on that point, is taken rs confirma-
ton of the runor that the secret actually
owes its publicity to the careless tongue of
his royal highness. The story is that the
prince confided the morsel of gossip to Lady
Brooke, who, in turn. revealed it to a friend
of hers who happened TO have been snubbed
by Sir William Gordon Cumming. and who
at once saw in this episode an opportunity
for revenge.

The Secretary of State Not Yet Ready to
Discuss the Situation.
WASHINGTON, April 1.-Secretary Blaine
and the State Department officials are
very reticent about making public any
official statement concerning the recall of
the Italian Minister, Baron Fava.
Secretary Blaine said that it would be
manifestly improper for him at this time
to express any opinion in the matter. 1t
is believed, however, that the Secretary
taken, and that he is confident the diff
Guilty is temporary and can be settled
through the usual diplomatic channels.
The War Rumors.
Baron Fava has been on diplomatic
duty in Washington for the past ten
wears and his retirement will be much
regretted. The highly sensational ru-
mors pertaining to a severance of diplo-
matte relations and possible war between
the two countries, as result of Baron
Fava's retirement, are not believed to
have any foundation in fact.
Discomfort Over the New Orleans Affair.
A very high official authority, whose
knowledge of the diplomatic transactions
of the present administration is the best,
and whose responsibility cannot be ques-
toned, gave to the press the following
statement, which may be taken as repre-
senting the feeling of the administration
concerning the withdrawal:
Baron Fava, the Italian Minister, no
titled the State Department that, under
orders from Rome, he was compelled to
withdraw from his mission near this gov
eminent. He does not, however, close
the Italian Legation, leaving Marquis
Imperiali, the present secretary, to act as
Charge d'Affaires. This action on the
| part of the Italian Minister is in no sense
one of hostility to this government, but
merely indicates a certain degree of dis
content ON the part of the Italian Minis
try respecting the New Orleans parish
| prison affair"

BARON FAvA's LAST ACT.
According to Diplomatic Etiquette He
Must Call ON the President.

According to Diplomatic Etiquette He
Must Call on the President.
WASHINGTON, April Barron Fava
must, according to diplomatic etiquette,
present his letter of recall to President
Harrison before severing his connection
with the United States government.
1t is said, by persons well versed in
diplomatic matters, that q failure to pre-
sent this letter would be a direct slight
to the government.
A minister, when about to present his
letter of recall, is accompanied to the Ex-
cutive mansion by the Secretary of State,
and after the minister has presented his
letters and made a few remarks explana-
tory of them, the President usually makes
short complimentary speech, expressing
his regret at the minister's withdrawal,
and his hope that pleasant relations will
continue between the two countries.
1t remains to be seen what will be
done in this regard before Baron Fava
leaves Washington.

ITALY'S NAVAL FORCE.
Ranks Third to England and France Onl
in Number of Vessels.

WASHINGTON, April There are in all
probability no men-of-war afloat that
carry heavier guns or are more formida-
BILE than those that Italy has recently
built. While the navy does not contain
as many as that of England or France, it
has better vessels.
Italy did not begin to build her new
vessels until the experiments made by
other nations had enabled her to decide
upon type. She has, either finished or
well advanced, % armored ships. OF
these 10 are of modern build, having a
displacement of II 900 tons or more each,
and a speed exceeding Is 1-2 knots. These
vessels carry the heaviest guns made, the
Armstrong breech-loading rifle of IS to II
inches caliber.
There are in the Italian navy $50 YES
sells, manned by 1876 marines and
officers, in addition she has a naval re-
serve force of IA, 900 men. The active land
force numbers l, 456, $50 men, with re-
serve of /, 75S, IT'S men and officers.
The United States navy comprises 10
new vessels and seven steel and iron ships
from the old navy, the entire fleet being
manned by force of 2,O77 men. The
standing army aggregates 81 800 privates
and officers.

THE PRESIDENTS TRIP.
H0 Will Leave for California April - and

WASHINGTON, April 1.-The President,
as now advised, will leave Washington
on Wednesday, April 10, for his Califor-

him will be small and will probably in
clude no ladies.
Several members of this Cabinet will be
of the party, including Secretary Tracy,
who will avail himself of the opportunity
afforded by the trip to visit the Mare
Island Navy Yard and the Union Iron
Works at San Francisco, where sew
eral United States vessels are now in the
course of construction. The itinerary of
the trip is not yet mapped out, but the
President will probably be away in all
about six weeks.
Numerous letters of inquiry as to what
cities the President will pass through are
being daily received at the Executive
Mansion, and no replies can be made, as
the President himself has not yet made
up his mind as to the exact route he will
take

NEW YORK, April 1.-The Italians in
this city were greatly surprised at the re-

it had been whispered about in their col
ony for some time that something start
ling was in contemplation.
The following is the editorial of the
Progress Americana, which appeared this
morning:
'The recall of Baron Fava, the Italian
Minister to Washington, is certainly one
of the most serious and solemn steps
which could have been taken by the gov
ment in the present circumstances
against America, which has for so many
years been a friendly nation.
Italy has done its duty and the colony
has cordially approved, and we hope and
believe that it has measured and weighed
all the consequences of the act which
whether we will or not-is an open rup-
ture of the diplomatic relations between
Italy and America and the first step to-
ward an armed demonstration.

HOW LONDON VIEWS 1T.

The Daily News Sees No Way Out of the
Difficulty.
LONDON, April 1.-The Daily News is
the only paper of this city which con-
tanned any comments on the recall of
Baron Fava, the Italian Minister at Wash
ington.
The Daily News thinks that the author
tiles of Louisiana cannot bring the
lynchers of the Italian prisoners to trial,
and that, therefore, the deadlock be-
tween the United States and Italy will
continue unless the latter country abates
it's demands for satisfaction for the MUIR
der of its subjects.
