With gold going out at this rate and
the Treasury gold reserve down to
SG6, 600 900, the conference OF the Clear
ing House banks yesterday afternoon
is naturally regarded as significant.
The banks do not care to see the
Treasury reserve reduced any more and
are now disposed to furnish gold for eX-
port up to a reasonable amount.
The Presidents Of the banks do not
seem disposed to take another Govern
ment issue OF bonds. as II would tend
to depreciate the value OF the So, 900. 900

Neither do they care to make IA formal
agreement to pay out their gold.
As the New York banks hold about
$50, 900. 600 gold they could spare $50 ON, 900
without serious Inconvenience, es-
pecially as money IL a glut and they
have a surplus reserve OF over $4,000.

All the gold to be shipped TO Europe
tomorrow Will be primarily supplied by
the Sub-Treasury, the shippers giving
legal tenders, The latter will be re-
deemed for the Sub-Treasury by the
banks in gold when the total shipment

A THIRD TRACK
FOR THE IT," !"
Justice Insraham ModiaeS the
Injunction in the Ninth
Avenue Case

Construction Between Gansevoort
and Eighty-third Streets
Legal.
CONNECTIONS EASY TO MAKE.
This, Practically, Is All the Com
pany Needs to Have a
Triple Track Road.
CONNECTIONS EASY TO MAKE.

Justice Ingraham, OF the Supreme
Court to-day signed an order modifying
the injunction granted last February
enjoining the Manhattan Railway Com
pany from building a third track on the
Ninth avenue branch of their IL" road.
Under the modified order the Com
pany can build a third track along Ninth
avenue from Gansevoort to Eighty-third
street, and thereby have a continuous
track for express trains.
The application for the modification
of the Injunction was made by Lawyer
Julien T. Davies, and Assistant Corpora
tion Counsel Connolly appeared for the
city.
Mr.. Davies presented an affidavit made
by Frank K. Hahn, Second Vice-Presl-
dent and General Manager of the road,
in which ne stated that the application
for this change had been made to and
approved by the Railroad Commissioners
WiEslow s. Pierce. Vaughan Carter and
Sutherland Tenny.
Mr.. Hain states the change Is sought
for the purpose of bettering the service
and to avoid the blocking of trains in
case of an accident. Switches are to be
constructed at each station for this pur-
pose.
Mr.. Davies stated that the Company
had secured the permission Of the Rapid
Transit Commission for the building OF

Sixteenth street and One Hundred and
Twenty-fifth street stations from be-
tween the tracks, and making side sta
tions at these points. the IL" can soon
have a continuous third track from
Gansevoort street to the Harlem River.
Mr.. Hahn was seen at the offices OF
the Manhattan Railway Company this
afternoon. but refused to talk upon the
third track question.
'T'sdfd not know" said he, "that
Justice Ingraham had modified the in
junction until just this moment ant
therefore have not had time to hold @
conversation with the officials of the
road. or course the object is for third
track, but when the work will begin
cannot say.
Neither do I know whether the sta
tions at One Hundred and Sixteenth and
One Hundred and Twenty-fifth streets
will be removed from between ths
tracks. They are very we'll where they
are. and l can see no reason for the
change"

Greatly Interested In the Testimony
Of Several Contract Laborers.
DIR. Senner and Samuel Gompers
Before the Congressman.

The Congressional Committee on I'm
migration continued its investigation
into the padrone system at an execu-
tive session at the Hotel Victoria to-
day. The Committee was to return to
Washington this afternoon. and It was
considered advisable not to make public
the result of the investigation, until
after It was acted upon by the entire

Other witnesses heard to-day were:

Sielpo Salvatore.
The last two are BARRIERS, who are IA
miliar with the padrone system, but the
first three have been in this country
only a few weeks.
They each testified that they had re.
ceived letters while In Italy promising

and that they came here practically as
contract laborers, but had been coached
how to pass the Ellis Island authorities
They said they learned when they ar.
rived here that the Italian banker who
communicated with them was a padronc

intended holding them until men were
called for. During the interval, It was
asserted. they were living in a lodging.

the Committee greatly. and may lead to
legislation making II possible TO curb the
padrones IN their slave-lke traffic.
One OF the amendments to the Immi.

so that foreigners returned as contract
laborers may be held as witnesses as

must be returned In the ship they come

Lawyer Abraham Levy, of the Pu-

ceedinSs Lawyer Grant, who was at

Grant protested that he was, and was
only satisfied when the defenda mt
stated that he had substituted Mr.. Levy
for Mr.. Grant.
Lawyer Levy argued that his client
should have been Indicted under the Con-
Solidation act, in which case ii would
have been a misdemeanor. He also held
that Levy was only an employee, not a
state officer.
Levy, as now indicted, Is charged with
felony. The argument came up in II
