OUR TREATY WITH JAPAN.
Senator Frye Points Out Bad Feature
OF tho New Convention.

OF tho New Convention.
Washington, Jan. 1S.-The discussion of
the japanese treaty, which was begun in
the executive session Of the Senate this
afternoon, almost Immediately after the
doors had closed developed more opposi-
tion than II was thought existed. Tho OBJ
lection which had greatest weight came
from Mr.. Frye. lie called attention to
the provision In the treaty that ties this
government up for eleven years in the
matter Of the favored nation clause" 1t
was shown by Mr. Frye that In every
treaty the United States has negotiated
with other powers containing this clause,
the right is reserved TO abrogate that
treaty after one years notice. our treaties
with England, Germany, Russia, France,
in short, all the great powers, contain this
stipulation, and IL was contended that IL
treaty was ratified with Japan continu-
ing such a clause for ten years, and then
able to be abrogated only after the usual
notice OF one year, that all our other
treaties would have to be treated in like
manner. This. it was shown. would work
to tho greatest harm OF the United States,
In case this government should see fit to
pass a law making discriminating duties
against merchandise imported in vessels
other than American bottoms and abso-
lutely prevent us from so doing, except
after the expiration OF a period of eleven
years.
This view OF the matter was taken by
many democratic senators, and II was fin
ally agreed that the treaty should be re-
turned to the committee on foreign rela-
tions for further consideration. and pos
siby amendment 1t was made the epe-
cial order for the consideration OF the
Senate again next Friday afternoon.

CONDITION OF THE TREASURY.
An Immediate Issue of Bonds Not Con-
sidered Probable.

Washington, Jan. lS-The treasury gold
reserve was reduced by to-day's with
drawals to S70,12l26. The second bond
issue raised the gold reserve to SuLO0.ooj.
Since November p. when The sold from
the second issue began to be received.
the treasury has lost more than $1,000. .0o0
in gold received from that isue which
netted. with the premium. about $500
O0o No serious talk of third bond issue
IS heard now in official circles and none
IS believed to be imiuent The general
condition Of the treasury is better than at
the date of either OF the other two issues
as is shown by these figures.
First call for bonds, January H. 1894.
net gold S65 600 900; net treasury balance.
$50 900 0C0.
second call for bonds November l5. net
gold. $4,000, 900; net treasury balance Slo7,-
000o0
The treasury condition, with the inter
est payments which are sull carried as
an asset. taken out as they will be on
Feb. ], stands to-day: Net gold, S0u2,-
l26; net treasury balance, Ni2.0i20n. In
all three cases as given the treasury net
balance includes the gold reserve.
The lowest point ever touched by the
gold reserve was on Aug Z. 1894, when 1t
stood at S52, lS9,500.
The general treasury condition is good,
kept so by the heavy receipts. which are
constantly increasing. Further increase
Is looked for next month and month
after Assistant Secretary Curtis said to-
day that from the present outlook the re-
ccipts for February will equal the eNpen-
ditures. For this month were 10 not for
the heavy interest payment sent. the re-
ceipts would equal the expenses Jan
uary is always the month of the heav-
lest expenditures of any OF the twelve
and this month in addition to the heavy
interest payments, more than $2O00000
in Central Pacific railroad bonds have
been paid.
With the favorable outlook for the i'm
mediate future it is probable that the
gold reserve may be allowed to fall below
$50,000,000 before a third issue of bonds
for its recoupment will be ordered.
Philadelphia, Pa, Jan S.-Sub-Treas-
urer Blgler received dispatch from Sec
retary Carlisle to-day ordering him to ship
100000 in gold to the New York sub
treasury, in addition to "a similar sum
transported this week. A heavy shrink
age in the supply Of gold i'm the New York
sub-treasury, because Of exports, has
caused the transfer from this city.
