THE GOLD QUESTION.
Con nhdence In Financial Situation-Ex
M u

Confidence In Financial situation-Ex-
ports OF the Metal Cease.
WASHINGTON CITY, April 29-No better
indication of restored confidence in the
financial situation was necessary than the
fact that no gold exports were made from
New York today, and it does not appear
now that any large amount will 60 out on
Tuesday, perhaps none at all. A promi-
nent treasury official remarked today:
As matter of fact there is less gold in the na-
tional banks of New York than In Chicago and
the gold centers west of the Alleghanies. Car
hsle is now in Chicago, where the gold really H.,
and will hold q conference with ths bankers
thera Reports from all national banks - to
the amount of gold on handlon March last.
a. between New York and Chicago,
show the amount Of gold to be-:
New York, $12.43s. .652; Chicago, l4,o24.460 This
brings out the important fsct that the demands
which were made by New York bankers during
the recent crisis were largely In the nature Of
''bulla." As between the West and East, the
former has $4,000, oc0 Of gold in national banks,
while the East only has $29. 1000. The plain
statement made to New York bankers by secre-
tary Carlisle appears to have allaved the appre-
hension that existed.
Gold offers continue to be made, all
these offers being accepted. The books Of
the department show only $93, 900 900 in free
gold, although Secretary Carlisle could
utilize probably $4,000. COO offered but not
yet formally transferred. The statement
of Secretary Carlisle that every effort of
the administration would be exerted in
the direction OF the repeal of the Sherman
silver law is regarded here as an anti-silver
edict, and free silver advocates assert that
they are ready for battle. and everything
promises lovely fight in the extra session
of congress-.

which was marching on was the truth
that their sex was at last in way to be rec

slide back of q coat of arms and shield
of Montana, which is in the form of a
brooch. The shield is perfect model of
the Montana seal. The mountains

the crest of the mountains. and the sky
which forms the background, are Of pure
gold, as is also the ground in the extreme
background. The shield is inclosed in a
circle Of gold forming a band, on one side
of which is the figure of typical pros

prospector is q fuil-bearded and rugged
looking miner, holding in his left hand

handle OF a golden pick. The
farmer has golden smooth face
and holds a hay rake in one hand, with
the other resting upon his belt. In the

veragua, and his party 5arrived in this
city. People thronged the streets and
struggled for a chance to see the man
whose name is so closely connected with

mighty cheer went up when the train
made its appearance. The party was con-
Quoted at once to carriages by the
reception committee, and pro-
cession was formed and proceeded
to the Auditorium. The procession
was headed by detachment
of police: then came the military escort,
and they were followed by carriages con-
tanning the distinguished guests and menu
bers of the reception committee. The
duke was given brief respite on his ar
rival at the hotel. Later in the day, after
the presidential party had been escorted
to the Lexington hotel, a delegation of city
officials. headed by Mayor Harrison, well
coined the duke in the name Of Chicago IN
the large reception room Of the hotel,
which was appropriately decorated in

standing the disclosures of the forgery Of
the documents introduced, Ahlwardt re-
malned callous and unabashed and de-
ciined to withdraw the charges. The COM
mittee delegated DR.. Portsch and Herr
beoel to confer with Ahlwardt privately,
but the conference did not result in auv.
thing, as Ahlwardt declined to withdraw
from the attitude he has taken. DR..
Lieber urged the committee to close the
matter. He declared it produced in him Q
feeling Of moral and physical disgust to
see German representative make such
aspectacle of himself.
This remark brought Ahlwardt to his
feet. and he menaced DR.. Lieber with his
nst. he said kieber's last remark was an
obvious reference to the circumstances of
Ahiwardt's appearing before the COM
mittee yesterday with a rent in his cloth
ing. Lieber's aliusion to the circumstance
was infamous. The chairman of the COM
mittee called Ahlwardt to order. The
latter repeated the expression, whereupon
the whole committee arose. Ahlwardt
hurled abusive epithets at them col
iectively and finally left the committee
room. shouting that he would not remain
to be insulted. The committee briefly
passed report. DR.. Miguel proposes to
bring criminal action against Ahiwardt,

law and expel him.

THE FATE OF THE ARMY BILL.
Heichstag Will Settle II In . Woek-
Catholics Will Not Support II.

Rsichstag Will Settle II I'm . Week.
catholics Will Not Support 1t.
BERLIN, April 29.-When the report on
the army bill was presented to the reichs-
tag few days ago Won Levetzow, the
president. proposed that the debate open
on Tuesday. The leaders of the different
groups concurred that four days would
suffice for discussion, SO a week hence the
fate of the bill will be settled. Today Won
Caprivi caused to percolate into the lob
bies information to the effect that the gov
ernment would cause second reading of
the bill to be postponed, presumably be-
cause the emperor desires to be present in
Berlin on the eve of the dissolution of the
reichstag.
Even at the last hour Chancellor Won
Caprivi has. with no apparent chance of
success, made fresh overtures for the sup
port of the Centrist leader, Count Won
Baiestrem, through Maj. Huene, another
prominent member of that party. 1t is re-
ported that the latter is reinforced bv let
ters from Cardinal Ledochowski. prefect of
the propaganda, urging the Center partv
to try to come to terms with tho govern
rent on the bill. There is no doubt. how.
ever, that the Centrsts are unfiinching in
their adhesion to existing decisions. No
occult pressure can overcome the fact
weighing most with the Centrists that the
repugnance of the Catholic electors is so
strong against the bill that the members
representing the party in the reichstar
will certainly be punished by their con-
stituents if they failed to observe the
pledges they made.

Is apprehended Notwithstanding this,

Of the trouble is over.
FARxISeroN. n. NJ, April "a party
direct from Whyte's Indian store and tho
Methodist Indian mission reports that the
Navajo Indians have crossed back into the
reservation. There are no immediate fears
OF an attack, though in the present state of
excitement any move may precipitate one.
Agent Plummer, fearing trouble, released
the murderer Of Welch. He is at the sub
agency at Fruitland. 1t is thought that
the Indians, seeing the agent without SOL
diers to back him up, took advantage Of
the situation.
WASHINGTON CRY, April o. The COM
missioner of Indian affairs has received
the following telegram from Lieut.. Plum
mer, agent of the Navajos:
1t is my intention to use the troops asked for

outlaws and bring the Indians into the reserva-
tion. The necessity for . larger force
Immediately is more urgent than was reported
yesterday. The Savajos along the border prac-
ticaliy rule everything, defying all authority
aud disregarding all the rights of white settlers.
They have been permitted to DO this 90 long,
with only weak threats from the agency, which
were never carried out, that they have grown to
believe that nothing will or can be done with
them.
A telegram from Agent Bartholomew at
the Ute agency says:
The Navajos are about to break out and We
have sent word to the governors d New Mexico
and Colorado for aid, but must have help before
their aid arrives We must have aid In hurry.
These kilograms were forwarded to the
secretary of war.
Gen. McCook telegraphs that he has
started four troops Of cavalry for the
Navajo country.
