GOLD RUNNING LOW.

The Issuing of Gold Certificates Ordered
stopped-Preparations for an Issue OF
Bonds.
New YORK, April 15.-An order was
received at the Sub-Treasnry at New
York to-day fer the suspension OF the
issue of gold certificates In accordance
with the provisions Of the act OF Con-
gress OF July -, 1882, which says that
when the gold coin or bullion held In
the treasury for the redemption OF
United States notes falls below $780,
OO0, 600 the issue Of the certificates shall
cease.
There Is no reason for uneasiness be-
cause Of the step taken by the depart
ment- 1t is the first time the issue OF
certificates has been suspended because
II is the first time the reserve has al
most reached the 500, 100000 point
with the immediate exports expected.
WASHINGTON, ID. c., April 15.-The
continued export Of gold from this coun-
try to meet the Austrian demand has
reduced the free gold In the United
States treasury TO 81, 1000. This al
lows for 81, $50, 600 taken from the New
York sub-treasury yesterday for ship
ments by to-day's steamers. In the De-
lief that gold will continue TO be ex-
ported for some time to come and In
order to supply the demand for gold
and TO replenish the depleted stock In
the New York sub-treasury IL is stated
that the treasury department have been
shipping gold from the treasury 10 New
York for the past week. The amount
thus shipped, IL is thought, is not less
than $40, 200, 900 and may be more. The
statement OF the condition OF the treas
ury made daily TO the Secretary shows
that the balance is gradually going up,
being to-day SOS, ,937, 139. or this sum
S11, 600, 600 is in subsidiary coin and
$40, 500, 900 in National bank deposit
taries.
The announcement that, for the first
time since specie payments were resum-
:. ! 1t was necessary to stop the issue OF
gold certificates was followed by the
rumor which was heard st the capitol
and elsewhere that the President had
decided 10 i,sue six million dollars OF
four per cent. bonds to protect the gold
reserve in CASE II became necessary.
Secretary Carlisle was seen at the treas
ury and was asked:
sis the rumor true that'six millions
OF bonds have been issued?"
He replied: "Six millions OF bonds nave
not been Issued" The Secretary d1d not
state explicitly that no bonds wele 10
be issued. 1t was ascertained subsS-
quently that the precautionary meas
ures which had been commenced under
the Harrison administration OF
preparing TO meet an emer-
gency by the issue Of bonds, II
necessary, had been carried 3 step
further under the present administra-
tion. 1t was learned that $4,000, 900 OF
the bonds prepared by Secretary Foster
we're now being advanced In further
stages towards completion, so that II 1t
should be deemed necessary and proper
to issue them or any part OF them,
rather than to break In upon the gold
reserve, the emergency could be met
with the least possible delay.

THE ELEPHANT REMEMBERED.
She Tries to KIN n Boy Who Hurt Her
Months Ago.

PrrrsBURs, PA, April 15.-Gusky,
the female elephant at the zoo, tried TO
kill boy yesterday who five months
ago, while feeding the elephant with
buns, fastened nail on long stick,
jabbed the nail into her trunk and ran
away.
He had not been to the zoo since and
supposed the elephant had forgotten
the matter, but she no sooner saw him
than she rushed at him and nearly got
hold OF him with her trunk, when her
keeper thrust a pitchfork in her shoul-
der and drove her back.
The boy, whose name is Andy Nelson,
was badly scared, and the keeper warn
ed him to never get within sight OF the
elephant again, for she would remem-
Der him for years and kill him II she
got a chance. He was ordered out Of
the zoo and told to never return.

NO TRUST IN BRICKS.
Reasons for the Association-Only a
Business Proposition.

The Brick making Association is an as
sured fact. 1t was not. William d. Eng
Iish declares, organized for the purpose OF
raising the price of bricks, but simply as a
means of putting the brick-making trade
on safe business basis. 1t comprises the
leading firms Of the city, viz. the Remil-
lard Brick Company, the Sacramento
Transportation Company, the Fortin
Brick Company. the Patent Brick Com
pany, the Peterson Brick Company, the
San Jose Brick Company and Il. Dreisch-
meyer Jr.
This is not the first com Dinato of the
kind in San Francisco. Fo1r years ago a
similar arrangement was made and the
price of bricks at the start was S11 a
thousand. For some reason or other the
union dropped out OF existence.
No one seems TO have been the prop0ser
of the plan. The matter was in the air.
and when on the 18Th nit. the affair was
broached it met with ready acceptance.
though II took some time to perfect the de-
tails. There is no trust In the matter, it is
declared, but simply business proposition
TO avoid loss.

price of brick is only one of the objects Of
the association. 1t will be protection TO
the manufacturers of bricks against loss
in the sale of brick to dishonest Dur-
chasers. Ii will be a kind Of agency to
protecr the different firms op minor scale
like Dun's or Bradstreet's for merchants
generally. The price at which brick is
held is by no means eXOrb!tant. Brick at
81 thousand in this market means loss.
A raise of this nature could work no in
jury to anybody, he says, though it might
be a temporary disadvantage to a man
who wants to build in brick just at the
present moment 1t would enable the
makers of brick to give fair price for
labor.
Consider" went on Mr.. BurrelI, that
the association is a matter of necessary
protection TO the business. and l do not
think it harms anybody in the community.
We are not members of the association,
though we are brick makers and so we are
disinterested in the matter"
A member of another leading brick man.
ufacturing firm said: "Unless people want
similar things to happen in the brick trade
that have taken place in the lumber busi-
ness, such an association and such a move
we're necessary. There is no mistake about
the fact that bricks sold here at 81 thou
sand prove simply loss to the makers. II
costs 81 a thousand to land them here,
and the manufacturers net SIS a thousand
not enough to pay expenses, nor give fair
percentage OF profit on the money used in
the business.
The association simply desires to estab-
lish price which will prevent suspensions
and bankruptcies. Ii is not a trust in any
sense of the word"
