Grain and Provision Markets off
York, April 18. A calmer and
more confident tone characterized deal
ings at the Stock Exchange to-day. Ad
vices from Washington that the free gold
in the treasury had increased $500,000
and that the administration was fully
prepared to meet any radical change in
the financial situation had a reassuring
effect and led to free purchases of stock
for both accounts. The bears made sev
eral attempts to check the upward move
ment, but were; unsuccessful. Their
principal drives were against Manhattan
and Chicago Gas, the first right after the
opening and'the latter after 1 "o'clock.
Manhattan sold off from 151 to 145 and
Chicago Gas from 88 to 85 K- The

order thatthe reports should be made

then the assemblage meet at once to dis

To this proposition the Chamber agreed.
The agreement appeared to be hastened
by the presence of an enormous throng

Bhortly after noon to-day. With the an?
nouncement prices went off considerably,
as it is not known how far the failure
may reach. Barr & Co. acted as brokers
for Geo. Kaltenbach, the big European
plunger whose corner in coffee collapsed
a few days ago. The coffee trade gener

over 200 points which has taken place
within the last three days.- The fii m

It also carries cotton contracts on the
Cotton Exchange . The liabilities are
stated at between $275,000 and $400,000.
The house was considered very strong.
The business of Thomas W. Barr & Co.
was established by Thomas T. Barr,

three or four years ago to accept the
presidency of the National City bank, of

says the cause of his failure is that liis

TO STOP GOLD PAYMENTS,
The statement is made that the treas
ury officials contemplate the advisa1 1 ity
of stopping the payment of gold coin for
treasury notes issued under the act of
July 14th, 1890. Under that act the Gov
ernment was compelled to purchase each
njonth' 4,500,000 ounces of silver, and at
the time issue notes for the bullion re
ceived. These notes are termed "treas
ury notes" and on the face of them tle
clare that they are "redeemable in cox."
There are said to be $130,000,000 of these
notes in circulation, and according to
Mr. Springer's repprt to the last Congress
oh the circulation of the jtreasury, about
$21,000,000 of these notes have "been pre
sented since last July and gold paid but
lor them, or at the rate of $4,000,000 a
month.' It V asserted that it Is this class
of notes that has been reeeff tly presented
by New York brokers in exchange for
gold. No verification or contradiction of
the statement that it is in the comtem
plation to issue an order suspending the
payment of gold on treasury notes of
1890 can be obtained from Secretary
Carlisle. j

Fort Monroe, April 18. The second
day of the naval rendezvous finds the
weather cool, clear cool and beautiful,
and ;all that could be desired by both
those on shore and on tlie fleets, The
Roads are beginning to fill up with the
daily arrival of steamers carrying thous
ands, of excursionists from Baltimore,
Richmond and Norfolk, and numbers of
small steam -craft of every description
gaily decorated with bunting and flags
of the foreigners, loaded to the gunwales
with passengers, who show their appre
ciation of the ships as they sail down one
lone line of American - vessels and thin
back by the British, Russian and French
ships by gaily waving handkerchifs? par
asols and small banners. Occasionally
an officer on watch steps! to the side of
his vessel and returns the salutes, which i
calls forth more waving and cheering j
from those on the little pleasure craft.
The harbor this morning was dotted
with ! every imaginable description of
vessel from the modern man-of-war to
the oyster canoe of the darkey who pad
dles his party around the vessels .and ap
parently enjoys the sight as much as his
more fortunate fellow-countrymen who
crowd the deck of the large passenger
steamers or who are being lavishly enter
tained in the cabin of some . luxuriant
yacht. These latter craft have begun to
arrive and by to-morrow several more
will be here with their loads of enthusi
astic spectators. I ' "!!
This was the nrst morning since tne
arrival of the Russian fleet last week that
there has not been a great firing off of
guns in the fleet and at the fort to wel
come some new arrival. I .
The French flagship Arethus is ex
pected some time during the afternoon
and the fast Argentine cruiser now on
her way will probably drop in about the
same tune. - -I -
