1t is not known what caused the ae-

the walls to bulge and strained the roof.

serve Invaded by the Quiet Withdrawal
of Gold from the New York and Boston
Suh-Trcasurics for shipment to Canada.
WASHINGTON. May I. ~ Secretary
Carlisle was busy this morning answer
ing his mail which had accumulated
during his absence. He looked well
despite the fatigue Of the long journey
from Chicago. and expressed himself rs
well satisfied with the financial situa-
ton. He said his conferences with the
bankers of New York and Chicago were
very satisfactory. He declined To say
whether he had effected any arrange
,nent with them TO build up the gold
reserve, or to protect it in case il be-
came depleted by continued export.
The gold reserve according to the
figures on the treasury books is to-day
7.o25. 900. This includes as far As can
be accurately asccrtained all the gold
offered and accepted within the past
ten days except about $3.50. O00 thus
leaving the reserve invaded about ST.
100000. This has been occasioncd by
the quiet withdrawal Of gold from the
New York and Boston sub-trcasuries
for shipment to Canada. and by the
further fact that si.00o,o00 promised
from the west was at the last moment
withdrawn.
Some small offers Of gold were made
to-day and accepted. and unless the ex-
port for Saturday is large. il is proba-
BILE that the treasury may make up the
present deficiency and the gold reserve
again become intact.
