It wee^tho plain duty of the sonata to do so. On^too agreement a yea and nay vote will he^taken on too Roach matter before ad^^journment, a resolution was passed for^the appoiutment of a committee to wait^on the president and inform him the aen-^ato was ready to adjourn.

HriiLis,April IV^The method followed^In the reichstag last weok in enforcing the^rules of procedure ill the rase of Ahlwardt^well confirm the belief that the bouse^wants to throw aside the accusations with^^out heating them. In the face of the fer^^ment which Ahlwardt's charges caused,^the president of tba relelistag would have^shown better tact if bs bad less rigidly^followed the rules of procedure. Those^who profess to have seen tbe documents^say that thty are nothing but a repetition^of tbe stale charges of fraud on the wsr^Invalid fund and exploded charges that^defective rifles were furnished the army^by the Hebrew Arm, Loewo A Co. With a^view of clearing up and ending the scan^^dal, Herr Rebel and other socialists as^^sented to give Ahlwardt the IS supporters^required for a formal motion introducing^tbe pa|^ers.
Eventsin Belgium are giving the foreign^office here greater anxiety than the Ser^^vian roup d'etat, though this is known to^have been hatched in Paris In Russian^interest. An armed conflict over the pop^^ular demand for a revision of the Hclgian^constitution, resulting in a revolution aud^placing iu the power of the allies of^France, is so within tbe bounds of proba^^bility that French papers are already in^^dulging in surmises as to what Germany^would do in tbe event of the monarchy In^Belgium being submerged. Reports thst^are ereditsd in some French organs that a^eotnpact between Emperor William and^Eisfe Leopold arranges for the German^ocojpeiiou of Belgium within a day, if the^1 s^stall inn threatens to overthrow tbe^king. Whatever internal convulsions^man occur in Belgium It is the official^opinion here that Germany will absolutely^bold aloof unless tbe French connive at^assisting tbe revolution.
Withregard to Servia, if the French^^government did not inspire the coup d'^Stat it was concocted undents knowledge.^Ten days ago, DeKitch, who is now King^Alexsnder's primo minister, visited King^Milan in Paris and with him the plan of^be coup was made, which the boy king^executed. The event has importance as^possible factor in early disturbances on^the Bulgarian frontier, which will involve^tbe attention of Germany and Austria.^In a convcrsat ion on the Samoan diffl-^ejtBlTT^^^^' Walter Phelps, tba Amor-^minister, said that he regretted the^failure of Chief Justice Cederkrants to^fillflll bis official duties.

THE TREASURER'S REPORT
ItShows a Balance of Twenty-Six^Millions-Austria Needs Uold^-Bonds May Be^leeued.
NewYork, April 15.-An^ceived at the sub-treasury at New York^to-day for the suspension of tbe Issue of^gold certificates in accordance with tba^provisions of tbe act of congress of July^12. UW-\ which says that whan tbe gold coin^or bullion bold in tbe treasury for tbe re^^demption of United States notes falls^below tUW.OOO.UOO tbe Issue of certificates^shall cease. The gold cert iflcates ia com^^mon use are tboae Issued under the set of^July 1-'. 1882. Tbe acting assistant treas^^urer in charge of the sub-treasury said:^^This step on tbe part of tba secretary of^the treasury simply means that be is^carrying out tbe provisions of tbe law. It^does not mean that tbe government will^receive deposits of gold coin and^refuse to pay back in kind.^Any one wbo deposits gold coin here will^receive legal tender notes. In other^words, instead of iasuing gold deposit cer^^tificates, which are necessarily redeem^^able In gold, the treasury will issue legal^tender notes, for which gold will always^be paid if demanded.
Theonly difference which tbe stopping;^of the certificates makes Is that tbe treas^^ury department will not issue them for^gold as it lias been doing. The secretary^is merely anticipating tbe withdrawal of^gold which will probably be made for ship^^ment for next Tuesday's German stesmer.^There is no reason for uneasiness because^the step wss taken by tbe department. It^te tbe first time that the issue of certio^^rates has been suspended because it is tba^flrst time that the roserve has almost^reached the $lOn.oiil,O00 point with imme-^diote export expected. Under a previoue^net the issue was sus|M^uded by Secretary^Sherman in MAX

WisiiiM.ii'S.April IV The continued^export of gold from this country to meat,^the Auetriau demand has reduced the free)^gold in the United Mates treasury to^f l^UU.UOU. Iu the belief that gold will con^^tinue to be exported for some time and in^order to supply tbe demand for gold and^replenish tlie depleted stock In tbe New^York sub-treasury, it ie etated that thst^treasury department has been shippings^gold from lbs treasury to Nsw York for^the past week. Tbsssvsunt thus sbippwl^it is thought Is not lees than alu.uOO.OOO^may be mors.

Kecognuung the fact that tbs prep^^aration of bonds is s matter of time.

It ia learned that I6.OUO.00J of those^bonds are now heme advanced on a fur^^ther stage toward completion, so, if it^should be deemed necessary and proper to^issue them or any part of them, rather^than break In upon tbe gold reserve,^emergency could bs met with the I^possible delay.
