WASHINGTON. April 23.--No better indics-
tion of restored confidence in the financial
situation is necessary than thu fact that no
gold exports were made from New York io-
day. and ii does not appear now that any
large amount will go out on Tuesday. per-
haps none at all. The plain statement
made to the New York bankers by secrs--
tary Carlisle appears to have allayed the
apprehension that existed. Gold offers
continue to be made. All these offers ars
being accepted. The books of the depart
ment show only $4,000 in free gold, all
though Secretary Carlisle could utilize
formally transferred. The statement OF
Secretary Carlisle that every effort OF the
adminiatrat alton will bs exertcd In the dirso-
tion of the repeal Of the Sherman silver
law. Is regarded here as an Ansi-silver
edct, and free silver advocates assert that
thing promises lively fight in the next
congress.
AS matter of fact there Ia less gold in
the national banks of New York than In
Chicago and gold oensers west of the Ale--
0henies.' remarked prominent treasury
official to-day. Carlisle is now in Chi
caRo. where the gold really is. and will hold
conferences with leading bankers there.
Reports from all national banks ms TO the
amount OF gold on hand March Q last, az
between New York and Chicago, show
the amount of gold held TO be: New
York $12, 43s G52, Chicago $l4, ,824.66O. This
brings out the important fact that tho de-
mands which were made by New York
bankers during the recent CRISIS were
largely in the nature Of bulls. As between
the west and east the former has $54 0O0. 600
gold in national banks while the east has
