TO DETER GOLDSHIPMENTS
FIRttT ACTION UNDER THE
NEW LAW.
The Treasury Deportment will
Chance Four Cents Per Hundred
Dollars for all Gold Bars Requlr.
ed for shipment to Earope.
Washington, March 6. The treasury
department has already been called upon
to net under the Sherman amendment to
the legislative, executive and judicial ap
propriation bill authorizing the secretary
of the treasury to exercise his discretion
in an exchange of cold for Bold coin and
change. ;,w
Heretofore the statute repainting this
matter has been construed by the treas
ury department at against imposition ol
charges. Under the new law the policy
of the department wil' to charge four
cents per hundred dollars in value for all
gold bars required for shipment and il
this fails to deter gold shipments the
question win men De considered as to
the advisability of rel'usinir altogether to
exchange gold bars for shipment, thus
compelling shippers to use gold coin or
to obtain gold bars from private par
ties.
The ruling to this effect was first made
yesterdny on a telegraphic order for
ouu,uuu, in gold Dnrs lor shipment Irom
New York. The director of the mint,
with the approval of the secretary of the
treasury, direct d that a charge of $240
(or lour cents per $10 J I lie made for ex
change, but he is not yet advised as to
whether the exchange was made on
that basis. It is assumed, however, that
it was. The treasurv dcoartment is in
receipt of advices from New York to the
cttcct that there will be a heaw demand
lor gold bars for shipment bv steamers
aiming lor buropc Saturday.

Well ; il turned out that they the
republicans got the house by three ma
jority, we believe. So had North Caro
lina democrats done their duty in the
Reidsvillc and Asheville districts the boot
would have been on the other foot. But
there were selfish disorganizes in the
Rcidsville district und there was some
trouble with our piirtv friends in the
Asheville district, and honest Tom I0I111-
ston was deleated, and so the republicans
controlled the house and Reed was
lected speaker.
