Mr.. GAGE is NOT WORRIED
Gold Exports Controlled Exclusively
by the State of the Money
Market.

NEW YORK, June 22-Lazard Freres
will ship $1,000 900 gold to Europe on Sat
urday.
WASHINGTON, June 2S.-Secretary Gage
attaches no Importance to the engagement
at New York today of 100000 in gold
for export. 1T is a mere incident" he
said. 1T is possible that the expectation
of the gold which was paid TO Spain in
the settlement of our treaty obligations dis
turbed the equilibrium somewhat and has
necessitated some considerable shipments
TO again restore the normal conditions of
exchange"
Treasury officials are Of the opinion that
the balance of trade between this country
and Europe has little or no influence upon
gold shipments
The records of the department covering
the last twenty years and more, show that
the balance Of trade has no appreciable eff
feet either upon the imports or exports
of gold and 1t has come TO be a settled
conviction that large gold movements are
controlled almost entirely by the money
markets at home and abroad. other in
fuences may control the movement, but
the shipments at this time are not regarded
as indicating any unfavorable conditions
in this country.

Reported Interview with the Admiral

MINNEAPOLIS. June 23.-George II.
Holden. who has just returned TO Minneap-
oils from the Philippines, tells OF talk
with Admiral Dewey in Manila, during
which the latter expressed expansionist con-
victions of the strongest type. Dewey re-
quested Holden TO give an opinion upon the
future course Of the government in the
islands and when his opinion was called
for he said he thought the government
could not afford to withdraw that they were
building for the future and not the present
and that they owed 1t 10 the world TO re-
main. he heartily approved of the words:
Impress your view upon your friends and
every American citizen" said Dewey.
Holden was asked by the admiral 10 visit
a certain member OF the foreign relations
committee of the senate and urge him TO
have a Law passed extending citizenship to
the sixty Chinese boys who participated in
The battle of Manila bay. They were good
enough to fight for us. and they are good
enough to be American citizens" said

Inv nvestigating San Francisco Mint and

SAN FRANCISCO, June 23.-F. A. Van
derlip, assistant secretary of the treasury,
arrived here today. He comes on two mis-
sions, one TO inspect the local mint and the
other to form one of the board of examiners
who will investigate the letting of the stone
contract for the new postoffce in this city
Eastern and western contractors have made
bids tor the stonework and great effort
is being made TO have the new postofice
building constructed of native stone. The
eastern stone IS said TO contain iron and to
be therefore unfit for such a building. 1t
is to determine this and other questions that
a board of examiners has been appointed.
Mr.. Vanderlip will inaugurate new sys-
tenn at the mint tending TO decrease ex-
penses and TO decrease charges to patrons
1t is said that prices in the local mint are
in some cases 80 per cent higher than in the
other mints in this country.

RUSSIA SUBMITS PROPOSAL
Disarmament Not Intended, hut n
Cessation of Increase in Fight
ing Force.

THE HAGUE, June 23.-M. de Staal,
president of the Peace conference, at
meeting OF the committee today introduced
the Russian proposals looking to the arrest
of armaments and read declaration dis
claiming all intention of proposing a reduc
tion of the armaments at present. But, he
added, he was of the opinion that If
standstill could be agreed upon, reduction
would soon come OF itself. All the powers,
he explained, had conferred with the car
relative to the immense evils of armed
peace and he. NJ. de Staal, now appealed to
them to devote their energies toward the
arrest of the continual increase in the cost
OF armed peace, which, he asserted, cost
more than tremendous war.
Colonel Gilinsky of the Russian delega-
tion moved that the powers should enter
into an understanding for a term of, say
FIVE years not TO increase the effectiveness
OF the peace footing of their forces, with
the exception of the colonial troops, and
not TO increase the amount of their military
budgets. beyond their present figure.
The speeches and the resolutions were
ordered to be printed and circulated, and
the discussion was adjourned until Monday

DREYFUS' COMING IS IN DOUBT
French Military Ofcials Are Polite
and Ignorant Regarding Ar
rival of the Sfnx.

BREST, France, June 23.-The inhabitants
OF this port are absorbed in the pending ar
rival OF Dreyfus. The question on every
ones lips is When will he arrive?" but
no one seems able to reply. The town, how
ever seems perfectly calm. Along the IA
vorite parade, the Cours Dajot. on the cliff
overlooking the splendid harbor in which
half dozen picturesque old three -deckers
are lying moored alongside modern cruisers
were few groups OF sailors and marines,
gazing seaward
When questioned they admitted that they
were watching for the French cruiser Sfax
bound from French Guiana With the IA
nous prisoner On board, but in the same
breath expressed the belief that it would
not arrive in the daytime. They think the
warship will be kept outside the harbor un-
til night and that then Dreyfus will be
landed inside the arsenal This is the gen.
eral opinion of the townspeople, who are
eager to witness the landing.
The military and civil authorities profess
to know nothing about the matter, not even
II the Sfax is coming to Brest.
A representative of the Associated Press
called at the maritime prefecture this after
noon and had conversation with the port
admiral, Barrera. who was typical OF French
politeness, but who displayed most praise
worthy ignorance. He said:
up to now l have received absolutely
no instructions. l am awaiting orders from
the new minister of marine. ! cannot even
say Dreyfus will be landed here. In any
case, he cannot arrive yet" and, taking q
map, he traced the course of the Sfax from
the Cape Verde islands, which it left Tues
day, adding:
You see it cannot have passed the
Canary islands before yesterday. 1t will
not arrive here at the earliest until Sunday,
or perhaps Monday"
The perfect OF police also told the Asso-
ciated press representative that he had not
received any instructions regarding Drey-
fus. The French first class cruiser Tage
now lying in the harbor. has been in
structed TO put TO sea on Sunday evening
and it is thought il has been ordered to
meet the Sfax and have Dreyfus transferred
to it, But Admiral Barrera says the Tage
Is simply going 10 sea fo- he purpose Of
e6pe4stnenl ing with carrier pigeons. Ne
doubt a big crowd Will be present 10 witness
the landing OF Dreyfus If he is allowed to
be seen, but no disorders are expected.

here from Paris and has been distributed

BOTH SIDES TIRE OF The FRAY
strike Among Cleveland street Car
EmploScs Draws to
a Close.

CLEVELAND, O., June 23.-The strike
among the employees Of the Big Consolidated
street railway is in fair way TO be set
tied. on Thursday the officers OF the Big
Consolidated issued what they styled their
ultimatum 1t was to the effect that the
company was willing TO take back all but 100
men, which would mean that SO per cent of
the striking employees would he renstated.
In the matter OF other grievances the COM
pany made no changes. but its concessions
have recently been agreeable to the strikers.
The strikers Thursday night refused to ac-
cept the proposition Of the company, saying
the union men would not submit 10 work
with the nonunon men.
Today the peace committee OF the city
council issued a call for a meeting of the
strikers, which was held at Arch hall, in
which an effort was made to induce the men
to agree TO the last proposal of the company.
The result was that statement was framed
by the strikers which they said was their
ultimatum. The statement practically
agreed to the proposition of the company.
They agreed 10 allow the company to retain
100 Of its present employees and put in a
clause which said that hereafter in case Of
any difficulty between the company and the
employees that the latter should have the
right TO appoint committee which would
discuss the grievances.
This is not contrary 10 the stand taken by
the company, which has agreed at all times
that all matters pertaining to the employees
would be discussed with them. The strikers
asked primarily for the recognition of the
union. The council peace committee, how
ever, persuaded the men that it was to their
advantage to submit, and they have prac-
tically agreed to do so.
The final decision will be reached at a
meeting TO be held at . o'clock tomorrow
morning. This time has been asked by both
sides in order that both may be sure that
there is no trick hidden in the statement of

SAN FRANCISCO, June 23.-The Evening
Post says that Chicago capitalists are b.
hind proposition looking to the formation
Of a trust in redwood lumber on this coast.
The firm OF Gray & Mitchell, the paper says
is working to get the principal redwood lum-
bermen into a combine which will control
the supply and the prices to be paid for
redwood lumber. All the lumber companies
have been asked TO submit an appraisement
of their holdings. Heretofore overproduc-

consequent Generalization of the market,
II is to prevent this overproduction, more
than anything else, that the combine will
be formed
