Several Cities Have Come to the
Relief Of the Treasury De-
partment
Officials Think That the Gold Tide
Has at Least Been
Stemmed.
Much Talk hut No Money Given CarlisIa
by tile BANKERS of New York
City.

WARRINGTON, April 2s.--Offers of cold In
exchange for legal tender notes arc still
being received at the treasury department.
The aggregate runs into the hundreds of
thousands. Du,ing tho past week offers
nave been mads and accepted from San
franoisco, Roanoke. Va, Pittaburg, Wash
ington. st. Louis, Boston. Norfolk, Va,
Columbus. Ca. Baltimore, PHILADELPHIA
and New Orleans. Reports from New York
indicate that very little if any gold will 90
tomorrow. and this. in connection with
the low rate OF exchange, is accepted bv
treasury officials as moat encouraging
fact. and an indication that IL tho gold tide
has not actually turned 1t has been stemmsd
for ths present.
There is still considerable talk Of an OK
ira session for the consideration of The
financial question. but if the reserve fund
is regarded by tho administration as so
much available gold for meeting oblipa-
tions it is improbable that there will be so
alarming depletion Of the fund 40 to FEM
der necessary an extra session. The con-
sensus of opinion seems to be that an extra
session will be convened about Sept. l, bat
called no more for she consideration of the
financial question than the readjustment
of the tariff.
The plan for suspending the sugar
bounty. without waiting for the slow action
OF congress, has been auggested to President
Cleveland and may be adopted. The plan
consists in a simple order from the secre-
tary of the treasury to his subordinates to
draw no moro warrants and make no more
payments on account of sugar bounties.
suoh action would carry the matter to the
courts and secure decision upon the
naked question whether the payment of
grAtuities to private individuals out Of
money received by taxation upon the people
is within the power Of congress under the
constitution
