note. One of them, ''From Blomidon to

his last literary work. They were all the
outcome of summer excursion through

he was defending the standard of woman
hood, the virtue of city and OF country
girls; no man could say that seduction
was possible under the circumstances
which had been portrayed here. He
protested against such standard being
raised for virtue.
As for his client, no one had known
through what mire that man had been
dragged, and such was the penalty of
sin. He did not want the jury carried
away by the whispers floating in the air
that verdict for the defendant would
be ratification OF sin. He asked them
also not to commend woman who had
borne herself al the plaintiff had not
to elevate her for the degradation of
him. Such verdict would mean to the
girls that virtue WAS but cloak, to be
thrown off and put on. American
womanhood should be vindicated by the
standard to which wives and mothers
must be held.

tie chief registrar OF Somerset house re-
garding his position. In an interview
tonight, Mr.. Wilde said that fortunately
he did not take out citizens papers during
his residence in New York, and added !:
"The American courts have no jurisjic-
tion over me. l allowed the action
brought against me by Mrs. Leslie to go
by default. The New York court said l
would not be allowed to marrye again,
but am advised this decision is not

mo, Mrs. Frank Leslie knows nothing
about my marriage. She lie in frequent
communication with my mother, Lady
Wilde. do not care to say anything
against Mrs. Leslie. Simply we did not
get along. saw her last on Broad
street in London. Our interview was
friendly, but we have not corresponded
with each other. She wished to con-
denim me to life of immoral celibacy
az q punishment for my deeds in
America.
"My marriage, which was solemnized
on January 1lt1, was kept secret for
family reasons. Only my family, the
family OF my wife and few intimate
friends knew OF the event, These ar
rangements for the marriage were sane
toned by my wife's mother, Lady Wilde
and my brother Oscar. My bride, who

the board of trade in Dublin. Her
mother is a member of the Rowley
family who are descended from the
famous Admiral Rowley."
Then reverting to his past life Mr..
Wilde said: "While l deplore the fact
of the divorce, am perfectly confident
that have done right in remarrying."
Mr.. Wilde concluded by saying: "As
for the rumor that Mrs. Leslie stated
when she was in London that she wae
still my wife-well, am glad that ques-
tion has been logically disposed OF.

WASHINGTON, April 12.-rhe Demo-

Crisp, however, swept aside all prelimi-

issue.
As soon as the journal had been read,
the speaker recognized Catchings, from
the committee on rules, to present re-
port. Burrows and Reed attempted to
delay matters, by raising the point of
order that there was no quorum, but the
speaker averted his head and refused to
recognize them.
The reporG submitted by the COM
mittee on rules was to amend the rules
to the effect that every member shall be
in the hall of the house during its
sitting, unless excused or necessa-
rily prevented and shall vote on each
question put, unless he has direct per-
sonal or pecuniary interest in such
question; failure TO comply with the

THE OUTFLOW OF GOLD.
BEGINNING OF THE USUAL SPRING
EXPECTATIONS.
Two Million Dollars to Go Out Saturday,
The Reserve Again Expected to
Go Below the 500, OOO,-
900 Mark.

WASHINGTON, April 12.-The secretary
of the treasury received notice today
that about S2.00O,0 in gold coin would
be required for export next Saturday,
about half of which would be drawn
from the treasury and an equal amount
from the New York banks. 1t is the
opinion OF the treasury officials that
this shipment is the beginning OF the
usual spring expectation, and that they
are likely TO continue for some time.
This fact, however, is not regarded as a
cause of alarm. The net gold in the
treasury at the close OF business today
was $l05 963, $50. Last year at this time,
the gold exportationg were about nor
mally heavy, reaching $I9, I48, 1868 dur
ing April, and sic, 6,9l4,3l5 In May. In
June they dropped to $2,7I1, 1926, and in
July to $l74,2l2.
The financial and business conditions
in Europe as we'll as in theUnited States
have materially changed for the better,
and in consequence the prediction is
confidently made that the expectations
will reach only q fraction of what they
were year ago. England and France
are now we'll supplied with gold, and
Russia is now buyer. Austria is the
only European nation that is making
any special effort to secure gold, and
with these conditions prevailing the out.
look is not bad.
The first serious loss to our gold sup.
ply occurred early in the present month,
when about 100000 in gold was paid
in San Francisco, principally on account
of pensions. Since that time there has
been gradual recovery, so that our net
receipts from the sale of bonds had re-
stored the $l00,000 900 gold reserve and
over, about $S00,000. Treasury officials
state in positive terms that a So cond
bond issue is not in contemplation, in
deed it is believed to be extremely
doubtful whether an issue OF any con-
siderable size could now bs placed upon
the same terms as the recent issue. It
was with extreme difficulty that Mr..
Carlisle succeeded in ar0using the New
York bankers to the Importance of max
ing the last issue a success, and it is
believed he would scarcely undertake a
similar task, except in the event OF
great emergency.
With authority to issue short time, low
rate bonds, the difficulty, in q measure,
it is believed would be obviated, but no
such authority is expected from this
congress, therefore the expectations
will necessarily have to be drawn from
the gold reserve. On January 3lst last.
this reserve had decreased to $67, ,O0O,-
600 and it is believed 1t will again be
suffered to reach this point and even a
lower one before another bond issue
will bs attempted
