Ihave ‘no doubt that her life was saved BY THE USE OF AYER’S Sarsaparilla, It has also proved equally beneficial with my other children, who were troubled ‘with the same disease.” “‘Scrofula in my blood caused painful sores to break out on my left leg and arm, and but for the use of AYER’S Sarsapsrilla would.

CYCLONE IN VIRGINIA. CALMER FEELING IN NEW YORK. ‘The Government's Action Restores Co: dence to Wall Street. ‘Naw Your, April 22.—A calmer air pervaded the subtreasury and its neighborhood this forenoon. The positive knowledge that the government had met all demands in gold yesterday, that there bad been no discrimination between treasury notes and greenbacks, and the spparently firm belief that that course bad been opted in obedience to the wish of Presi- dent Cleveland in pursuance of the fixed policy of the government to maintain the ity between gold and silver, evidently da soothing effect, and there was a good deal less sensational talk around than there was yesterday. This was also, of course, partly due to the fact that gold is not, as a rule, drawn on Saturday for shipment, although there was | an exception even to that rule today. ‘At 10:30 o'clock it was said by Mr. Muble- man that $700,000 gold had been ordered today. n offset to this, however, it was said that i was known that #100,000 in gold wasgoing tobe sent into the subtreasury. ‘here were also ru- mors that come of the gold taken yesterday might be returned to the Treasury on Monday if the situation should be further improved. The actual condition of the United States treasury could not be accurately stated here this morning becanse it was not known how much had been paid out or received at other subtreasuries. Gold was shipped today to Europe on the steamships La Champagne and Elbe. The former carried $2,090,000 of the precious metal, | exported by the following firms: Lazard Freres, #1,500,000; Kuhn. Loeh & Co., $500,000; | Hoskler, Wood & Co., $90,000, The thipment on’ the Elbe amounted to $1,640,000 exported by Lazard Freres to Bremen. DEPRESSING EFFECT IN BALTIMORE. ‘The Disaster to the Pennsylvania and Mary- Iand Steel Company. Baxtrmony, April 22.—The announcement of the disaster to the Pennsylvania and Maryland steel companies, made late yesterday afternoon, has had a very depressing effect throughout the regarded as being the largest the soundest industrial enterprises in the coun- try. As one financier expressed it, “‘the failure of the Bank of England would not have occa- sioned much more amazement than this diffi- culty of the Pennsylvania and Maryland Steel companies.” ‘The paper of the companies had during the past four months been on the market, and it was considered gilt-edged, and was bought up freely by Baltimore banks. The estimates of the amount of their paper held by Baltimore banks differ widely. By some the amount is placed at $500,000, while others say it is much less. The amount is so distributed, ho that the banks holding it would not be seriously affected if they should lose it all. The bank officers 9 expect to receive 100 cents on the dollar and the suspension of payment will only be temporary. os A RELIC OF THE NARONIC, Four Dead Men Tied in a Boat Adrift in the North Sea. Loxpox, April 22.—A dispatch from Ymui- den, Holland, states that a fishing boat that has arrived there reports having seen adrift in lati- tude 56 north, longitude Seast, @ boat which had painted on its side a name which as far as conld be made out read “Naran.” In the boat were four dead men, their bodies being tied to the seats. ‘A high sea was running at the time the boat was sighte: sel from Tanning close to the drifang bout. It is conjectured here that this small boat came from the ill-fated Naronic, which sailed from Liverpool for New York on February 11 last and has never since been heard from, No date is given on which the boat was seen. ‘The position where the boat was sighted is a little to the westward of the middle of the orth sea, NOT FROM THE NaRONIC. Loxvox, April 22.—The vessel Cameo, which | arrived at Newcastle today, reports having | | picked up in the North sea a boat ‘containing | the bodies of five men, This was doubtless the boat reported, tu have been signted by the’ fiabi boat that arrived at Ymniden. The supposition that the boat belonged to the Naronic proved to have been without basis. It is now known that it came from the Norauside, a coasting vessel, which sailed from Blyth April 11 for Neufabr- waseer. REPORTS ABOUT BOOTH. It is Said That His Death is but » Question of a Few Hours. New Your, April 22.—Dr. Sinclair Smith left Mr. Booth at 9:30 this morning. He said that 6 patient had slept well since 9 o'clock last night, comfortably and con- tinuously until 6:30 o'clock this morning. It is his opinion that he is much improved.

Dr. Smith says this isa hopeful sign. doctor says he was surprised to read the slarming reportefn the morning papers and says they were made out of whole cl He does not say that Mr. Booth may not dié from his present illness, although he thinks it not probable.

Review of the Market. Henry Clews’ ‘Weekly Financial Review,” issued today, says: - Affairs in Wall street show no marked changes tind the “bears” have found that, though prices yielded under their attacks, they quickly re- eovered tipon their attempts to cover their sales. Among holders there is a firm under- tone, but no disposition to force an advance under existing unsettled conditions. ‘The weak eee in the market coatinues to be the gold movement. about which there is still” much uneasiness. The thing especially feared is not any real trouble in the treasury finances calculated to seriousiy affect the government credit. Street has no misgivings that the United States can suffer from impairment of public confi- dence or from any inability to take care of all and every form of its obligations. The thing feared is that the reserves of the gold as to compel a further reduction of loans and discounts and a consequent selling of se- curities held on specuiation, ‘The Secretary appears to ex; pect from the | banks a measure of support. in meeting the export demand for gold, have far as possible avoided draw- ing’ upon their own deposits in the treasury, and have preferred to demand gold for their greenback and treasury notes of treasury’s own stock. Really, therefore, the banks are largely responsible for the present low condition of the gold reserve. = pages FINANCIAL AND COMMERCIAL.

SECRETARY HERBERT ARRIVES et THIS WAS ITALY’S DAY. jIver Wedding of the Italian Rulers Celebrated in Hampton Roads. Special Dispatch to The Evening Star. Fort Moxrog, Va., April 22.—A glorious sunrise ushered in the Ing} day but one of the navai rendezvous and which promises to beone of the most interesting socially of the entire week. It was the twenty-fifth anniversary of the wedding of King Humburt and the event was to be befittingly observed on the Italian vessels. No one slept here after 8 o'clock. Just as the bells on the various vessels thronghout the fleet were chiming the hour the guus on the flagship Etna commenced to boom their noisy jubiintion, and at the xame time every vessel wax decked with flags from stem to kiern, the streamerr passing over the maste. In the language of the wea the sbi were dressed rainbow fashion, while at tl mainmast fowed the Italian standard. ultaneously with the appearance of the gaily colored pennant the guns on the fort and the ten flagships joined in the thunderous refrain from the Etna, and for at least five min- utes or until at least 21 guns had been fired br each vessel. The cannonading was so terrific that the crockery rattled on the tables of the eariy breakfasters and the smoke hung in fleecy | clonds over masts and yards. It was a beautiful sight to see the variegated remain in position unti! sunset this evening, When the Itslian flag will be bauled down to another accompaniment of noise and smoke. | Today the Italians are keeping open house oF what is its equivalent on ship board. All the other admirals and captains have called on Admiral Maguaght to tay to him how inexpressibly glad it makes them feel to know | that King Humbert had a silver wedding. Every time an officer boards th ship there is the usual piping of the “bos'n's whistle.” the guard is paraded end the gui are fired. so that it is by no means a picnic , a regulation which would reduce the liability | killed him had | for the Italian sailors, whatever it may be for | the admiral; and every time a foreign officer sets foot on deck he is invited to the admiral’s | cabin, where host and guest look at each other and say “How.” ‘The Secretary of the Navy and his party rived on the Dolphin a little after 10: aa a . By United Press. Before 10 o'clock the Spanish admiral started | to make his rounds of official cails upon-the ad- mirals who bad visited him yesterday.
