Washington, Jan. 25-The secretary
Of the treasury has authorized the sale
of gold bars for export on payment of
a premium of e of per cent, to cover
the cost Of manufacture and transpor-
tation, and this morning $1,O0O,000 was
taken on these terms. There was also
Withdrawn $9.SOOOOO in coin and $780,
900 additional was engaged for export
tomorrow, making a total, up to noon,
Of S.. 100 900. This leaves the gold re-
serve $5S,024,42S, and the amount of
gold coin on hand above the amount
of outstanding gold certificates, $10,-
912, $50. Treasury officials, however, do
not regard the amount of coins re-
cefved on deposit for certificates as
sacred to their redemption, but will
continue to pay out gold on demand
for legal tenders. 1t is deemed amply
sufficient when there is enough gold in
either coin or bars to meet the de-
mand ON gold certificates. While the
situation is regarded as a very trying
one, there is no thought of anything
so serious as to involve the credit of
the government, which the secretary
will fully maintain at all hazards.

United States minister to- Mexico, ar
rived in Washington today He has
been in Indiana, on account of the III
ness Of his son, but undoubtedly the I'M
settled condition of affairs in the coun-

Gray to report here for the purpose of
comforting with the secretary of state

ton as to the course he should pursue.
Mr.. Gray, this afternoon, had a confer

A local paper quotes MI. Gray as say
ing he does not think there will be war
between Mexico and Guatemala, be-
heving their differences will be settled
by peaceful negotiations. Further than
this ne declined TO talk.

Their Respective Resources.

San Francisco, Jan. 25.-Mexico, 1T is re-
ported, has decided to land troops at San
Jose de Guatemala. This would be very
difficult proceeding unless Mexico
strengthened her navy, for San Jose is
approaohable only in barges, and a, land
ing could only be effected at the long
pier that is built out into the ocean. The
surf breaks too heavily on the beach to
permit of the landing of troops in boats.
Mexico has five ships on the Pacific
coast at her command. The first is the
Democratic, a 450-ton displacement vessel,
built in 1875. She carries two 612-inch
rif1ed guns of an old pattern. The Mex
leo and Independence are small craft, of
limited fighting qualities.
The Libertad carries one 61a-inch gun,
and is the oldest boat in the fleet. The
Zaragosa is a modern frigate of the Dis
patch boat style. She is used as a, train
ing ship, and is Of more value, from a
lighting standpoint, than all the other
vessels in the Mexican navy put to-
gether.
Guatemala bought a man-of-war sew
eral years. ago. 1t is a small schooner,
not much larger than a. pilot boat. One
muzzle-loading gun stands on this form
idable crafts deck. The weapon is not
capable of being fired, however
San Jose de Guatemala is protected by
a battery of Krupp cannon that might
make it warm for any ship the MeXicans
have but the Zaragosa.

POULTRY AND BEES.

Procure the best breeds Cthere are mauC)
and take care of them. Keep them sol
in summer and warm in winter. Keep
all bad odors. Be systematic in feeding
and watering and in the entire care of
the fowls. If they get too fat change
to a less fattening kind and compel them
to work hard to get it. Make them
scratch in a deep litter of straw and
leaves This viii take off the fat and
keep them healthy and feeling good.
Don't keep changing from one breed TO
another because you see some neighbor
has a nice, well kept lot of fowls of an
other breed. Improve on your own care,
and your fowls will likely please you bet
ter. Select a. breed because you like 1T,
and be sure you have good reasons for
liking it. A utility fowl Will wear better
with you than an ornamental one, OF one
attractive for its peculiaritieS of plunlage
or makeup.
