The House Agrees to the senate Amend.
ments rs the Bn and the Measure Nov
Goes to the President for His Approval
WASHINGTON. Feb. 9.-The house
Wednesday agreed TO the senate
amendment to the national qurantine
bill, and the measure now goes to the
president The bill as passed is the one
introduced in the senate by Mr. Harris,
of Tennessee, and the provisions are
of the most sweeping character. II
authorizes the seizure of any vessel
which enters or attempts TO enter a
port of the United States in violation
of quarantine, and it shall forfeit To
the government sum not exceeding
s.. 600.
Medical ofiicers of this country are TO
be stationed abroad, and vessels at any
foreign port clearing for the United
States are required 10 obtain of such
medical officer, or from the consul, vice
consul or other consular officer of the
United States. bill of health, setting
forth the sanitary history and condition
of such vessel. Any vessel clearing
from port where an officer of this gov
eminent is stationed without bill of
health ind entering any of our ports

amount 20 be determined by the courts.
The surgeon-general of the Marine
hospital service is 20 examine the quar-
antine regulations of the states and
municipal boards of health, and regu-
lations are TO be drawn by the secretary
of the treasury necessary TO prevent
the introduction of contagious diseases,
not only into the United States from
foreign countries, but into one state
from another. The secretary. should
an emergency arise. may maintain an
absolute quarantine between the state
or sections. The powers conferred on
the secretary of the treasury for main
tanning quarantine between states or
one section of the country and another
are very sweeping.
Whenever it is shown to the satisfac-
ton of the president that, by reason of
the existence of cholera in a foreign
country, there is serious danger of the
introduction of the disease into the
United States power is given the exec
utive TO prohibit in whole or in part,
the introduction of persons and proper
ty from the infected ports. In other
words the president is given power TO
suspend immigration of every class
should he deem it necessary for the pro-
lection of the country.

. hsusted by Shipments to Europe.
NEW YORK, Feb 9-The Z. S. treas
lry is practically empty of gold, and
.he New York banks have been obliged
10 come to the relief of the government
That is the serious situation that con-
fronts the secretary of the treasury
and the financiers of the country.
The drain of American gold coin
to Europe has ut last exhausted the re-
sources of the government, and the pri-
vate stores in the vaults of the banks
have been drawn upon TO tide over the
emergency. The secret has been well
kept but of the 81, 800, 600 in American
gold that was shipped 70 Europe last
Saturday, $4,000. 600 was loaned to the
sub-treasury by the banks of this city.
The entire supply of gold in the
vaults of the L. S. treasury Wednesday
has been reduced TO Sos, 176, 93s OF
this only IS. 176, 93s is free gold; tho
remainder, 100000, 600, must be, by
law, held in the treasury for the

Uncle Sans gold box is visible; nor
has the drain of gold stopped. This
weeks exports will reach about s., 00O,-

assistance, only SO, 176. 93S of free gold
in the treasury. With the probability
Of further demands for import this
would not be single weeks supply.
Since Monday actual short sterling
rates of exchange have gone up from
a. 81 1-2 TO 4 IS, less commission.
George G. Williams, president OF tho
New York Clearing house association
and president of the Chemical national
bank, spent great deal of time
Wednesday arranging for further
loan of gold to the treasury. He
went to the City national bank, the
Hanover national bank, the ma
tional Bank of the Republic, the
National Park bank, the Fourth
National bank, the Importers and
Traders national bank and the First
national bank, and made appeals for
the public good, that they should join
with the Chemical and Chase national
banks, contributing of their gold re-
serves enough 10 make up the supply of
free gold in the treasury to meet all de-
mands until steps can be taken to sell
government bonds or otherwise meet

were successful in all instances Four
of the banks on the list named had al

IN A HAPPY MOOD.
The Hawaiian Commissioners See
Secretary of State Foster.
They Claim That the United states

WASHINGTON, Feb. s-The Hawaiian
commissioners were in an extremely
happy mood when they left the state
department Monday forenoon They
had heard the United States govern
ment's side of the annexation PROPOSE
ton, and. as one of the commissioners
remarked: THE United States is all
right in the case. Everything looks
most encouraging"
The commission, which includes DIR.
Mott Smith, the Hawaiian minister,
and Mr.. Kinney, their legal adviser,
met State Secretary Foster and Solic-
itor of the State Department Partridge
in the diplomatic room promptly at 10
o'clock
The business of the day was the in
formal presentation by Secretary of
State Foster of the United States gov
ernments side of the case. This had
been prepared by the president, Secre-
tarY of State Foster, Secretary Tracy
and Attorney-General Miller at an in
formal cabinent meeting Monday after
noon, and it followed the outlines al
ready given in these dispatches and
also somewhat on the American side of
the annexation treaty submitted in
1854 and sent to the senate Monday
afternoon at the request of Senator
Morgan.
There was an informal discussion of
the case for an hour and at IL o'clock
the conference adjourned subject 70 the
call of State Secretary Foster No
mention was made of n presentation to
the president and none will be until af-
ter the administration has again heard
from Minister Stevens After the CON
ference Tuesday the commissioners re-
turned to their hotel. They all seemed
much pleased with the turn of affairs
and the outlook and each and all said
everything was going satisfactory and
with as much speed as they could ex-
pect.
Mr.. Castle, in an interview, said:
There is point in this matter which
/ think can be discussed without be-
traying diplomatic secrecy. and that is
the position the United States holds
toward Hawaii 1t was the United
States rescued the islands from their
barbaric state. The American mission
aries were the ones who started and ac-
complished this, and ever since Amer
lean interests have fostered and cared
for the industries and people of the
lean protection the islands would have
been absorbed long ago by England or
France. The people have come 10 look
upon the United States as their natural
guardian and protector, and by its infiu-
ence have made themselves what they
are. Now that we are in n tight place and
appeal for aid 10 the United States il is
not only the right but the duty of the
United States TO listen 10 us and do as
we wish. Should they refuse this re-
quest, the islands are lost But / think
the United States government sees the
position and the end of these negotia-
tions will be satisfactory. We can not
expect haste in the matter, everything
must be done calmly and diplomatical-
", but so far everything that has been
done is entirely pleasing to the COM
mission"

al banks last Friday, recognizing the
rapid decrease of the free gold in the
treasury, contributed a., 600, 900 of their
gold in order that the government gold
reserve should not run too low. II was
simply an exchange of gold for legal
tender notes. The banks which con-
tributed were the First national. which
gave $500, 600; the Fourth national,
which gave 1000, 600, and the Chase
national, $500, 900. This was done vol

WASHINGTON, Feb. 1O.-The legisla-

1t contains quite good deal of new
legislation, the greater number of
paragraphs being OF vital interest
TO government employees, not only
in the departments here, but all over
the country. Representative DoclSery's
amendment compelling government
clerks TO work eight hours n day
passed without amendment. His
amendment providing for the appoint
ment of n commission to investigate
the workings of the executive depart
ments also went through. The intent
of this is TO weed out dead timber and
facilitate public business. provision
providing for the consolidation of the
surveyors general throughout the coun.
try under one head also passed.
a paragraph was agreed to providing
that future publications of the official
Blue Book shall contain a summary of
the employees by departments. giving
residence, street and number of every
clerk in the classified service, the num-
Der from each state and amount of sal
airy drawn by each. The object is so
that one may see at glance whether a
state has its full quota in the classified
service, or whether, as is the case with
eastern states especially, state has
more than it is entitled.
A provision passed which forbids the
draPing in mourning of the various ex-
ecutive departments as mark of re-
spect to deceased eX-ofiicials. 1t also
provided that department officers shall
not dismiss the clerks when an ex-ofIi-
