Condition of Trade.

A whole week, the confident expecta-
ton of the sale of bonds: has kept back
exports of gold. Withdrawals from
the Treasury amounted to about
50, 200, 900, but were mainly for domestic
purposes. No bond bill has passed or
is likely to pass Congress, and in the
two months ending with February LIST
the Treasury actually lost $67 900, 900 in
gold. of which ~$40,4O0,OO0 went into
circulation, and SIG, $780, 900 besides the
product of the mines went abroad.
How to arrest this outgo in either
direction is a problem which another
issue Of bonds may possibly solve. 1t
is hoped that the negotiations with
foreign bankers may ecure some
Improvement, though it is clear that
sales of securities here will Lave the
same effect as if the bonds were placed
in this country, and they may not be
stopped by the new transactions. In
other respects the domestic money
market is decidedly encouraging, with
a fairly hopeful increase in transactions
of commercial paper, though receipts
Of money from the interior continue
surprisingly large for the season. The
condition of industries, if not definitely
better, at least presents some points of
encouragement.

NEED NOT GIVE BONDS.
Interesting Controversy Connected
With the Lunt Estate.

Judge Mann Yesterday settled the
controversy yer the estate of the late
Alfred D. Lunt, between Mrs. Lunt and
the executors. The will wa Yesterday
admitted to probate, and accompanying
this record was filed a petition by Mrs.
Lunt asking that Richard M. Lunt of
Appleton, Henry II. Butler of New
York and Alfred j. Lunt of Omaha, the
executors, be required to give bonds, in
spite of the fact that the will requested
that such a demand should not be made.
She said the estate was worth S160, 900
in personal and $50, 0OUin real property,
and the executors we're not responsible.
Richard NJ. Lunt, she averred, was 81
years old, had been supported by his
brother, Alfred D., and his only prop
erty now was a m%ortgaged homestead.
