WAsHINGToE, April 15.-It seems an
established fact that per cent bonds to
the amount of several million dollars are
being prepared in the treasury department.
Blank bonds were ordered printed during
President Harrison's administration as a
precautionary measure. They are now
being advanced some further stages to-
ward completion. The secretary of the
treasury has the power, Under the re-
sumption act, to issue these bonds at any
time after the necessity arises; and If it
should be deemed better TO issue bonds
than to break into the gold reserve.
The continued expectation OF gold from
this country to meet the Austrian demand
has reduced the free gold N the United
States treasury 10 81, 100000 This allows
for 81, go Coo taken from the New York
sub-treasury yesterday for shipment by
today's steamers. In the belief that gold
will continue to be exported for some time
to come, and in order to supply the de
Inand for gold and to repleuish the de-
pleted stock in the New York sub.treasury,
1t is stated that the treasury department
has been shipping gold from the treasury
10 New York for the past week. The
amount thus shipped, it is thought, is rot
less TIM $4,000. 900 and may be more.
Secretary Carlisle today directed the
SuD-bIcaStIeTS throughout IDe nlUeu
States TO issue no more gold certificates at
present. In doing so he simply obeyed the
law, which says that the secretary OF the
treasury shall suspend the issue of such
gold certificates whenever the amount of
gold coin and gold bullion in the treasury
reserved for the redemption of United
States notes falls below 500, 000, coo"
In explaining his action on this subject
Secretary Carlisle said this afternoon that
while the Sl00,000000 gold reserve had not
been reached it was SO close that prudence |
dictated that no more gold certificates |
should be issued
This announcement that, for the first |
time since specie payments were resumed, |
1t was necessary to stop the issue of gold |
certificates, was followed by rumor,
which was heard at the capitol and else |
where. that the president had decided TO
issue S6,OOO,OO0 of per cent bonds to pro-
tect the gold reserve, in case it became |
necessary.
The statement of the condition of the |

The Black Detective.

The above play was presented to u
small audience at Ghios Opera House
last night. Owing to an unfavorable
opinion previously Of the "play," by
the public Of this city, the actors them
selves appeared at great personal dis
advantage, and presented an iinper-
sonation Of the several characters as
signed them under adverse and trying
circumstances. A portion of the play
was fairly well presented, and up to
the general average, while the special
features Of the programme, dancing
and singing, especially, were well re-
ceived and fully deserving of notice.
The play itself Is undoubtedly fail
ure "down South" Indeed such plays
usually are, especially 30 when con-
ceivcd by northern writer, TO whom
the real state Of things is theory and
not a condition. That the play would
"take' either in the North or East,
where the spectator could draw upon
naught save his imagination for the
reality Of the romance, which is being
pictured before bis fancy, is very prob
able; but to the experienced Southern
mind, where each act Is like the re-
production Of a local event, something
bordering upon the truth must be
presented to arouse the slightest in
terest. AS reproduction of true
Southern scenes and characters, both
before and after the war, such plays
exceed the widest Of fiction in their
wide flight from the truth.

Differs Greatly.

TO the average person statistics
generally are as an unwrittcn book,
and those Of the human family, even
as they are the strongest and most
complicated, differing so widely In
different countries, are, perhaps, less
understood than any other In view
of this fact the following figures, CIV
ing the relative proportion Of the sex
es, in several parts of the world, may
prove Of interest:
"0ver the whole world the proper
ton Of the sexes is about equal, but
III separate parts Of the world II varies
greatly. For instance, in this country
there 98 women to every 100 men; in
Europe there are rather more than
100 women to 100 men. In unciviliz-
ed countries the men are believed
largely to outnumber the women, this
on account Of the fact that more men
arc needed TO carry on the wars in
which such people are constantly en-
gagged and because Of the rougher
ways Of livingp

BUSINESS COMPLICATIONS.

1t seems that the Water Company
and also the Gas q Electric Light Co.
are involved in business complications.
At the recent term of the Miller cir
cunt court judgment was obtained
against NJ. p. IIillyer by the Jeffreys
Manufacturing Co., for $6,269.40, with
interest from Jan 7, 1892. The court
having made an order of sale, Sheriff
Blythe ON Thursday posted notices, Of
fering for sale, on Feb. IA, 1898, six
teen hundred shares of the capital
stock Of the Texarkana Gas Il Electric
Light Co., and twelve hundred and
forty shares Of the capital stock of the
Texarkana Water Co.
Also, a judgment having been OBJ
tanned in the Miller circuit court by
Judge l.. A. Byrnc, against w. A,
Kelsey and others, for 81, ,37730, and al

Gen. Stevenson in Tennessee.

"IIon. Adlai Stevenson and Mr..
Ewing, his law partner, reached Nash
vile this morning. They were met at
the depot by Col. d. b. Cooper and
taken Immediately to his home near
the city, where they spent the day,
meeting a number Of prominent cit
izens at luncheon. Tonight they are
the guests of the Ladies' Hermitage
club and guests of honor at the annual
Jackson ball and reception given under
the patronage of this association. The
grand march was led by Gen. Steven
son and Mrs. Mary j.. Baxter"
The popularity developed by the
vice-President elect, in the several
States Of the South, since his nomina-
tion at the National Democratic Con-
vention few months since, Is little
less than wonderful. His Southern
tour just prior to the late general
election, was little less than a trium-
phal progress, from State to State.

introduced in the Senate.

4hbkOuuCoN III eAAO oOA0hSs
The election of Miss Hattie Hicks,
of Lafayette county, third assistant
clerk of the House, yesterday, ended
one of the most persistent contests
that has occurred during the present
weeks session of the Legislature
There were three very popular young
ladies in the race, and it required
twenty-four ballots for the House to
make selection.
The speaker announced the stand
ing committees, which are printed
below. They were selected with
much care, and not single member
has yet been heard to object to his as
signment.
In executive session the appoint
ment of Judge Robinson by Gov,
Eagle as Chancellor in the chancery
district composed of the counties of
Drew, Chicot Desha, Ashley, and
other counties, was confirmed
Resolutions of sympathy and esteem
for Gov. Eagle were reported from
the Senate committee. After some
preliminary work both houses got
down to business and large number
of bills were introduced. In the Sem
ate the following bills were filed:
No. 23.-To amend section 5798 Of
Manstield's Digest, so as to compel
collectors to pay into the State and
county treasures all money collected
for privilege license twenty days after
collected and to make settlement for
other revenues quarterly. This bill
includes liquor license collected since
january lst.
No. 24-To amend section of the
schedule to the constitution of the
State
No. 25.-To amend section 59l7 and
5949 of Mansfeld's Digest. In case
any county does not levy the full con-
stitutional tax of mills for other pur-
poses, the levying court may levy tho
difference as road tax on all the
property of the county to keep up the
roads.
No. 27.-To fix the salary of the
Chancellor of the Second District at
$4,000 per annum.

of freight, and prompt shipment and
and delivery of such freight. 1t fur
ther provides for State commission
of three, to be appointed by the Gov
ernor and confirmed by the Senate.
Their salary, $4,000 per annum. Five

Governor Hogg's Policy.

According to the Dallas News Aus
tin correspondent, Gov, Hogg opposed
any legislative appropriation to the
Worlds fair, under the present eondi-
ton of things. The article in question
reads as follows
"The Governor places himselfsquare-
ly on the constitution in his opposition
to any appropriation to induce immi-
grafton in connection with a Texas er-
hbit at Chicago, or any other such
scheme. IL is, however, different
question in The minds of members of
the legislature whether the Governor
would object to an appropriation for
such an exhibit to be made for an en-
tirely different and lawful purpose.
The idea prevails that Texas needs no
more people; indeed has too many by
some 100000 wild-eyed Clark men,
but Texas products need market and
an exhibition of the same at Chicago
will bring them in demand over the
world.
The exhibit at Chicago of farm,
garden and orchard products Of Texas
in the agricultural department here,
which have been collected at NOM
inal price, would result in big sales of
Texas fruits, fruit trees, grain, etc, at
better prices A demand might also
be credited for Texas lumber and fine
timber and some Texas railroads
might be disposed Off

The tax books also disclose the fact
that city real estate has decreased in
value during the past year 100000,
while the county real estate has in
creased in value about $4,000. There
