NEW YORK, Dec S.-The intense dull

continued advance in the rate of foreign ex-
charge. which resulted il half a million
gold being taken for shipment by tomor-

take out a million more, and further ship

the present outward movement of gold is

ITS POSSIBLE FATE.

Much Interest Felt in the Future
of the Bureau of American Republics.
The question of the ultimate fate Of the
bureau Of American republics. almost the
last remaining vestige Of Mr.. Blaine's Pan
American policy, is an interesting one.
Nothing can be learned at the State De-
partrent respecting the policy of the ad-
ministration toward the maintenance Of the
bureau, but 1t is inferred, in view Of the
omission from the departments budget Of
an estimate for its continuance during the
years 1S94-1s95, that IT Is the intention to
abandon the institution.
The first controller has already decided
that the bureau Is not entitled to charge up
the rental of it's building to the State De-
partment funds. inasmuch as 1t Is not a
legal bureau of the State Department Two
or three of the less wealthy of the Ameri-
can republics have withdrawn their contri-
buttons for the joint support of the bureau,
alleging simply financial stringency as the
reason of their withdrawal and making no
complaint as to the management of the
bureau. Some of the weather. republics
continue to be well disposed toward the IN
stitution.
senior Mendonca, the Brazilian minister,
speaking on the subject, said: Il should
be very glad, personally, TO know that the
bureau was to be continued, and as long as
II remains In existence Brazil Will contTlp-
ute her portion of the expense OF main
tanning it. The bureau has been a great
benefit to my country, never more SO tnah
IN the past few months, and / had in view
some plans for execution by the bureau
officers intended to still further increase
the trade between the United States and
Brazil If the United States fails to pro-
vide means for continuing its work. We the
representatives OF the other nations inter-
ested, shall consider that notice that the
country does not desire its existence to be
prolonged and, OF course. We shall not un-
dertake to keep ii alive"
Senior Mendonca, in response to ques-
ton as to origin of the bureau, said 1t grew
out of the Pan-American conference. The
executive committee of the body, he said.
consisted OF Secretary Blaine, the Prest-
dent, Minister Romero OF Mexico and Min
lister Segario of Peru. Cornelius n. Bliss OF
the United States, and myself. In the
course of our discussions as to the best
means of making effective and permanent
the recommendations of the conference.
Mr.. Bliss, I think 1t was, suggested that the
tariff of the several nations be printed and
published. Mr.. Romero, as / remember.
then suggested that the work be done by a
central agency. modelled after the one In
BRUSSELS, which prints and publishes the
tariffs Of the whole world. and TO which
all the nations contribute. From that, as
a starting point, the scheme which finally
comprised the bureau of American repub-
lies was developed.

To Repeal the state Bank Tax.

The state bank tax subcommittee of the
House committee on banking and currency
has made report TO the full committee,
with a recommendation of a repeal of the
state hank tax with limitations. These
limit the circulation Of the bank notes to the
state of issue. unless the banks of issue use
notes furnished by the United States treas
ury and subject themselves to inspection
by the controller for purposes of public in
formation only. The circulation outstand-
ing must not exceed 10 per cent of the CAPT.
tai; they must be a first lien on the assets
and subject to an assessment of one-half
OF 1 per cent. The notes may also circu-
late generally upon deposit with the con-
troller OF state, municipal, etc, securities of
par value of notes. The report is prelim-
mary as showing what has been outlined
so far by the subcommittee

They Needed Not Broadway.

trOm the New York Tribune.
Il was hurrying along in Broadway yes
terday." said Mr.. Greathead, when l saw
young man and woman walking hand in
hand. They needed not the MONDAY glare
nor the crowds which elbowed them right
and left. There was a soft love light in the
young girls eyes. and the youth walked as
proudly by her side as If the wealth of the
world lay at his feet. They saw nothing
but each other: heard naught but the ten
der words each said to the other. To them
Broadway. with it's busy life, it's pande-
monium Of sounds and its baked pave
ments. was hidden as by veil. Having
eyes they saw not, and having ears they
heard not. Those who noticed them smiled
and passed on. The newsboys leered and
then went on their way crying 'Uxtra' as
before. The couple stopped at the deserted
entrance Of theater and stood there bill
ing and cooling. Past them coursed the
stream of humanity which GIBBS and flows
day and night through that great aorta
of the town, Broadway. l looked at those
young persons a moment, and then wheeled
about and walked to my favorite restau-
rant wrapped in thought. Why should they
have cared for the publicity Of Broadway /?
They were as much alone there as they
would have been in the wilds Of the Sahara
desert Nobody knew them, nobody cared
to know them. They might have strolled
up and down Broadway for endless ages
and been as much to themselves as though
they rambled through Acadian dells."

Correspondence OF The Evening Star
ROCKVILLE. September g. 1893.
Andrew Carter. the colored man who some
weeks ago was found concealed in a bed
room in the residence Of Mr. Charles Craw-
ford near Laytonsville. was arrested in
Washington on Tuesday and the next day
brought here and lodged in jail The room
In which the negro was found was the one
occupied by daughter of Mr. Crawford
and when she went to retire she acciden-
tally discovered the intruder hidden under
the bed. Her screams alarmed the family
but before any of them could get to the
room the man made his escape through a
window. Since that time the officers of the
law have been on the lookout for the mis-
creant, but never could locate him until
this week. 1t is supposed that his intention
was to rob the premises after all the fami-
ly were asleep. The affair caused consld-
cradle excitement in the neighborhood. and
it was lucky for the negro that he made
good his escape at the time.
