ing house balances and for government
checks over tho counter, when some
form OF currency would have been
more desirable to tho payees,
Conrad N. Jordan, assistant United
States treasurer in this city. was ques.
toned about this to-day and asked for
an cxplantion, especially In view Of the
fact that 1t had boon supposed that the
government was desirous OF building
up.the gold reserve again to the $780,.
100000 limit. Mr.. Jordan declined to
give any reason for tho treasury paying
out gold as stated, but suggested that it
might be inferred to be duo to desire
20 provide for some need for supply
Of currency at not distant date. He
secuted the suggestion, however, that
had been made that it was because the
government did not wish to issue any
more gold certificates, which 1t must do
as soon as tho gold reserve is 500, ,000,-
900, the theory Of the suggestion being
that gold is more easily boarded In that
form, tho government storing it FREQ oil

From another source 1t was learned
that the government has been paying

Vigorous Clubbing by the Police
Brings Peace, but the Combatants
Are Still Eager for Blood.


LONDON, April 23.-Orance riots broke
out in Belfas, last highland continued until
late this morning. They were especially
severe in the notorious Shankhlll district.
At midnight an Orange mob put out the
street lights and shortly aAeIward attacked
tavern kept by a Roman Catholic named
Connolly. They smashed in the windows
and doors, looted the st0reroOms and liquor
vault, drove out Connolly and his family
and endeayOred to burn down the building.
The police were out in force, and before the
mob could get the fire well started they
drove them off and extinguished the flames.
The rioters then tried to invade the
Catholic quarter. where NatiOnalis,s we're
celebrating the second reading of the home
rule bill by burning tar barrels but
strong line of policemen hrld them back. A
crowd OF Nationalist gathered and the two
parties stoned each other over the heads of
the constables. The conflict became so hot
eventually that the police were obliged to
drive back the two mobS by repeated
charges.
The whole district is in such a riotous
mood that be ore o'clock company from
the Dorseishire regiment was brought UP.
Who ordered out the military cannot be
learned. The police refused TO accept their
assistance, as they contended that tney
were able to cope with the mobs. Tie mil
itary marched away, and soon afterward
The mobs were dispersed by means of some
heavy clubbing. Twenty or more rioters
were arrested. Several more attempts were
made this morning to mob the Nationalist,
but were defeated by the police This
evening Orangemen are looking for an
other opportunity 10 fight the Nationalists,
