GOLD AGAIN FLOWING IN.
The Surplus Intact With 100000
in Excess.

Western Bankers Come to the Relief
of the Treasury Secretary Carlisle
Greatly Encouraged-Thi Weeks
Shipments Almost Sure to Make
Another Inroad on the Surplus.
Washington, April 22.-The gold re-
serve is intact to-day, offers aggregating
nearly $4,000 600 having been received and
accepted by the secretary this morning.
Secretary Carlisle stated to-day that the
treasury would continue the policy Of
paying out gold for treasury coin notes.
NAMES NOT GIVEN OUT.
Secretary Carlisle said he did not think,
injustice to those who were disposed TO
supply the government with gold that
their names should be published, and for
that reason alone he did not think it was
wise to state the names and places from
which the offers came. He was feeling
quite good over the fact that the offers
aggregated sufficient amount to maks
the gold reserve intact aud
leave little free gold in the
treasury He expressed the hope
that it would continue to increase so that
he would be able to meet any demand
made on the treasury for gold for export
on next Tuesday When the day closed
the treasury department had TO its credit
slightly over S1O0,000 i'm free gold It is
expected that this will be increased Mon
day, as there Is disposition shown by
western bankers to help the treasury
swell its gold balance. Several banks in
New York, too, are stated to have turned
in gold for greenbacks.
A BETTER FEELING.
There is better feeling temporarily
at least, and the fact that no bad result
has occurred by dipping into the green
back gold reserve leads TO the belief that
none will occur If II is found necessary 10
repeat the proceeding 1t is Anticipated
here that large shipments of gold viii be-
made next week, large enough, if tho
present information is correct, to again
wipe out the free gold and invade the
gold reserve. No official information OF
these shipments has reached the treasury,
but the reports come from sources usually
correct. In case the shipments are made,
there is nothing TO indicate that Secretary
Carlisle will not do as he did yesterday,
viz, invade the gold reserve to meet all
demands. Advicos from New York indi-
cate that up to noon to-day 81 $50 900 gold
had been ordered for shipment to Europe
by Tuesdays steamers
A CONFERENCE AT NEW YORK.
New York, April %. There was long
conference between the bank presidents
and Assistant Treasurer Conrad Jordan
vt the clearing house this afternoon.
The meeting lasted two hours.
| Those present agreed that parity between
| gold and silver must be maintained and
| that the government must meet all its
obligations with gold. 1t was practically
| decided among the bankers that they
would advance no moro gold to the
treasury without an invitation, and even
then not large amount without bond
issue.

NO SHOW FOR cAPRIv1.
The Army Bill Certain to Be Defeated
in the Reichstag,

Berlin, April 22-So little interest has
been taken by the members in the pro-
ceedngs of the Reichstag during the eweel;
that three times within the past six days
the session could not be constituted, ow-
ing to the lack of quorum. The house
has interest in nothing except in calcu-
latng what the result would be on a
division on the army bill. Nobody doubts
the defeat of the government; the ques-
tion Is how many votes Chancellor Won
Capriyi, after long intrigue with the
center and national liberal par
ties, will be able to secure. The
house comprises at present 1894 members,
three seats being vacant. Out of these
the chancellor relies upon getting the sup
port of 50 conservatives, Is free conserva-
tives, Al national liberals, IL Poles and 10
reichsparte, a total minority vote of 15l,
against compact opposition amounting
TO 24S votes, and made up of centerists,
freisinnige, socialists and other factions.
Even should the chancellor he able to
secure the votes of the small number of
Catholic dissentients following Herr
Hueneme, they would not suffice to avert
defeat. The party leaders are accepting
dissolution as inevitable and are assid
uous in their preparations for the cleo
tions But for Herr Hueneme's connec-
tion with the chancellor the centerist
leaders would already have agreed upon
the form of the electoral manifesto, which
has received the adhesion of the bulk of
the party

ing the Last Year.
Philadelphia, April 22.-ln the annual
report Of the American Iron and Steel
Association, which will shortly be issued
Secretary Swank gives general review
Of the domestic iron trade for last
year "It cannot be truly said
that our iron and steel industries
were prosperous in 1922 he says, "and
the lack of prosperity was conspicuously
shared by the farmers Of the west and
the cotton planters of the south Thus
far in 1898 there has been no noteworthy
improvement in the prices Of western
wheat and corn and southern cotton
while the prices of most iron and steel
products are lower than they were at the
end Of 1892. The general financial situa-
tion in this country and in Europe in
1892 was not favorable to the building of
new railroads, and hence was not favor
able to our iron and steel industries -
The secretary gives Overproduction as
the principal cause of the iron and steel
depression, and says that in February
and March of this year there were slight
advances in the prices of Bessemer pig
iron and Bessemer billets, while other
prices, notably of southern pig iron, are
weaker now than in December Even
Bessemer pig iron and billets are lower,
he concludes, in April than March.

BREAK OF THE STEEL COMPANY.

Quenoe of the Crash.

Philadelphia, Pa, April % The fall
me Of tho Pennsylvania Steel Company
has depressed the iron and steel trade
and it is the belief in financial circles that
the embarrassment Of the large concern
is but the forerunner Of more failures in
the same line. The stock of the Penn
sylvania Steel Company, which was yes
terday offered at 100 with no bids, was
to-day offered at 80, with bid None,
however, was sold. At the offices of thei
company in this city to-day nothing could
be learned beyond the fact that state
ment Of the assets, liabilities, etc, is
being prepared and win be ready
for distribution early next week. Who
the heaviest creditors are Is as yet un-
known, but it is said that New York
firms are heavily involved The Phila-
delphia banks hold large quantities OF
oiron paper" and the failure has affected
many OF them The paper of the Penn
sylvania Steel Company has always been
regarded as gilt-edged, and the sudden
failure Of the concern produced slump
from which there has not, and will not
for some days, be "a recovery.

Columbus, April 22.-In all probability
the whole body of coal miners in Ohio will
go out on a strike May 1, as a result of the
failure Of the miners and operators to
agree on wage scale for the year be-
ginning then. The miners asked an in
crease of 5 cents per ton and the operators
refused to give it. Both Patrick A Nc

Operators Association, said in an inter
view yesterday that a strike seemed in
evitable and Mr.. Mcbride anticipates

Yards at Jacks onville Flame-lit.
jacksonville, Fla, April 22.-Fire to-
night at 7;30 O'Clock destroyed two gal
vanized iron warehouses of the Savannah,
Florida and Western railway. Each
house was 250x40 feet and stored with
hay, grain, meats, provisions, fertilizers,
etc, owned by the various merchants in
the city. The loss is roughly estimated
at $4,000, with only small insurance
Considerable delay was experienced in
turning in an alarm to the fire depart
ment, which was costly One of the men
of the street car stables ran to the depot,
but none of the men there had a kew to
the box. The engines in the yards mean
while kept up deifen5ng screeches,
but there was no response until
the wires. The department made
a quick run. A line of hose was run
from the viaduct the city's costly struct-
ure, within eight feet of the end Of the
warehouses and run over the roof to the
location Of the fire at the other end The
tiremen endeavOred to cut hole in the
roof, but were driven away, as the fire
ran the entire length of the structure in
half minute and drove them back
In another minute it was a roaring fur
mace which it was impossible to quench
Shortly afterward the second warehouse,
which was parallel with the first, and
only twenty feet away, caught and then
to save the viaduct was problem. But
after hard battle of over
an hour this was accomplished. The
street car stables caught but were saved
with but little damage. A large area of
platform was burned, together with
several hundred feet of railroad track.
Beneath the viaduct were two buildings
stored with gasoline which demanded
constant attention, as the viaduct above
was black with people These buildings
smoked repeatedly and it seemed at
times as if they were doomed, but they
were saved and a disaster averted
